2008-04-29bridge: kernel panic when unloading bridge moduleBodo Stroesser
There is a race condition when unloading bridge and netfilter. The problem happens if __fake_rtable is in use by a skb coming in, while someone starts to unload bridge.ko. br_netfilter_fini() is called at the beginning of unload in br_deinit() while skbs still are being forwarded and transferred to local ip stack. Thus there is a possibility of the __fake_rtable pointer not being removed in a skb that goes up to ip stack. This results in a kernel panic, as ip_rcv() calls the input-function of __fake_rtable, which is NULL. Moving the call of br_netfilter_fini() to the end of br_deinit() solves the problem.

2008-04-29bridge: fix error handling in br_add_if()Volodymyr G Lukiianyk
When device is added to bridge its refcnt is incremented (in new_nbp()), but if error occurs during further br_add_if() operations this counter is not decremented back. Fix it by adding dev_put() call in the error path. Signed-off-by: Volodymyr G Lukiianyk <volodymyrgl@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-04-14[BRIDGE]: Fix crash in __ip_route_output_key with bridge netfilterPatrick McHardy
The bridge netfilter code attaches a fake dst_entry with a pointer to a fake net_device structure to skbs it passes up to IPv4 netfilter. This leads to crashes when the skb is passed to __ip_route_output_key when dereferencing the namespace pointer. Since bridging can currently only operate in the init_net namespace, the easiest fix for now is to initialize the nd_net pointer of the fake net_device struct to &init_net.

2008-01-20[NETFILTER]: bridge-netfilter: fix net_device refcnt leaksPatrick McHardy
When packets are flood-forwarded to multiple output devices, the bridge-netfilter code reuses skb->nf_bridge for each clone to store the bridge port. When queueing packets using NFQUEUE netfilter takes a reference to skb->nf_bridge->physoutdev, which is overwritten when the packet is forwarded to the second port. This causes refcount unterflows for the first device and refcount leaks for all others. Additionally this provides incorrect data to the iptables physdev match. Unshare skb->nf_bridge by copying it if it is shared before assigning the physoutdev device. Reported, tested and based on initial patch by Jan Christoph Nordholz <hesso@pool.math.tu-berlin.de>.

2008-01-11[NETFILTER]: bridge: fix double POST_ROUTING invocationPatrick McHardy
The bridge code incorrectly causes two POST_ROUTING hook invocations for DNATed packets that end up on the same bridge device. This happens because packets with a changed destination address are passed to dst_output() to make them go through the neighbour output function again to build a new destination MAC address, before they will continue through the IP hooks simulated by bridge netfilter. The resulting hook order is: PREROUTING (bridge netfilter) POSTROUTING (dst_output -> ip_output) FORWARD (bridge netfilter) POSTROUTING (bridge netfilter) The deferred hooks used to abort the first POST_ROUTING invocation, but since the only thing bridge netfilter actually really wants is a new MAC address, we can avoid going through the IP stack completely by simply calling the neighbour output function directly.
