- Backwards Compatibility: If userspace wants to determine whether ipv4 RTM_GETADDR requests support the new IFA_TARGET_NETNSID property it should verify that the reply includes the IFA_TARGET_NETNSID property. If it does not userspace should assume that IFA_TARGET_NETNSID is not supported for ipv4 RTM_GETADDR requests on this kernel. - From what I gather from current userspace tools that make use of RTM_GETADDR requests some of them pass down struct ifinfomsg when they should actually pass down struct ifaddrmsg. To not break existing tools that pass down the wrong struct we will do the same as for RTM_GETLINK | NLM_F_DUMP requests and not error out when the nlmsg_parse() fails. - Security: Callers must have CAP_NET_ADMIN in the owning user namespace of the target network namespace.

2018-07-29route: add support for directed broadcast forwardingXin Long
This patch implements the feature described in rfc1812#section-5.3.5.2 and rfc2644. It allows the router to forward directed broadcast when sysctl bc_forwarding is enabled. Note that this feature could be done by iptables -j TEE, but it would cause some problems: - target TEE's gateway param has to be set with a specific address, and it's not flexible especially when the route wants forward all directed broadcasts. - this duplicates the directed broadcasts so this may cause side effects to applications. Besides, to keep consistent with other os router like BSD, it's also necessary to implement it in the route rx path. Note that route cache needs to be flushed when bc_forwarding is changed.

2018-01-24net: separate SIOCGIFCONF handling from dev_ioctl()Al Viro
Only two of dev_ioctl() callers may pass SIOCGIFCONF to it. Separating that codepath from the rest of dev_ioctl() allows both to simplify dev_ioctl() itself (all other cases work with struct ifreq *) *and* seriously simplify the compat side of that beast: all it takes is passing to inet_gifconf() an extra argument - the size of individual records (sizeof(struct ifreq) or sizeof(struct compat_ifreq)). With dev_ifconf() called directly from sock_do_ioctl()/compat_dev_ifconf() that's easy to arrange. As the result, compat side of SIOCGIFCONF doesn't need any allocations, copy_in_user() back and forth, etc. Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2017-09-21net: avoid a full fib lookup when rp_filter is disabled.Paolo Abeni
Since commit 1dced6a85482 ("ipv4: Restore accept_local behaviour in fib_validate_source()") a full fib lookup is needed even if the rp_filter is disabled, if accept_local is false - which is the default. What we really need in the above scenario is just checking that the source IP address is not local, and in most case we can do that is a cheaper way looking up the ifaddr hash table. This commit adds a helper for such lookup, and uses it to validate the src address when rp_filter is disabled and no 'local' routes are created by the user space in the relevant namespace. A new ipv4 netns flag is added to account for such routes. We need that to preserve the same behavior we had before this patch. It also drops the checks to bail early from __fib_validate_source, added by the commit 1dced6a85482 ("ipv4: Restore accept_local behaviour in fib_validate_source()") they do not give any measurable performance improvement: if we do the lookup with are on a slower path. This improves UDP performances for unconnected sockets when rp_filter is disabled by 5% and also gives small but measurable performance improvement for TCP flood scenarios. v1 -> v2: - use the ifaddr lookup helper in __ip_dev_find(), as suggested by Eric - fall-back to full lookup if custom local routes are present Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2017-06-09Ipvlan should return an error when an address is already in use.Krister Johansen
The ipvlan code already knows how to detect when a duplicate address is about to be assigned to an ipvlan device. However, that failure is not propogated outward and leads to a silent failure. Introduce a validation step at ip address creation time and allow device drivers to register to validate the incoming ip addresses. The ipvlan code is the first consumer. If it detects an address in use, we can return an error to the user before beginning to commit the new ifa in the networking code. This can be especially useful if it is necessary to provision many ipvlans in containers. The provisioning software (or operator) can use this to detect situations where an ip address is unexpectedly in use. Signed-off-by: Krister Johansen <kjlx@templeofstupid.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

PING 10.2.2.2 (10.2.2.2) from 9.9.9.9 vrf0: 56(84) bytes of data. >From tcpdump: 12:57:29.449128 IP 9.9.9.9 > 10.2.2.2: ICMP echo request, id 2491, seq 1, length 64 Note the source address is from lo and is not a VRF local address. With this patch: $ ping -I vrf0 -c1 10.2.2.2 PING 10.2.2.2 (10.2.2.2) from 10.0.0.3 vrf0: 56(84) bytes of data. >From tcpdump: 12:59:25.096426 IP 10.0.0.3 > 10.2.2.2: ICMP echo request, id 2113, seq 1, length 64 Now the source address comes from vrf0. The ipv4 function for selecting source address takes a const argument. Removing the const requires touching a lot of places, so instead l3mdev_master_ifindex_rcu is changed to take a const argument and then do the typecast to non-const as required by netdev_master_upper_dev_get_rcu. This is similar to what l3mdev_fib_table_rcu does. IPv6 for unnumbered interfaces appears to be selecting the addresses properly.

2015-10-21netlink: Rightsize IFLA_AF_SPEC size calculationArad, Ronen
if_nlmsg_size() overestimates the minimum allocation size of netlink dump request (when called from rtnl_calcit()) or the size of the message (when called from rtnl_getlink()). This is because ext_filter_mask is not supported by rtnl_link_get_af_size() and rtnl_link_get_size(). The over-estimation is significant when at least one netdev has many VLANs configured (8 bytes for each configured VLAN). This patch-set "rightsizes" the protocol specific attribute size calculation by propagating ext_filter_mask to rtnl_link_get_af_size() and adding this a argument to get_link_af_size op in rtnl_af_ops. Bridge module already used filtering aware sizing for notifications. br_get_link_af_size_filtered() is consistent with the modified get_link_af_size op so it replaces br_get_link_af_size() in br_af_ops. br_get_link_af_size() becomes unused and thus removed.

This will signal to userspace that the route will not be selected. The signalling of a RTNH_F_DEAD is only passed to userspace if the sysctl is enabled and link is down. This was done as without it the netlink listeners would have no idea whether or not a nexthop would be selected. The kernel only sets RTNH_F_DEAD internally if the interface has IFF_UP cleared. With the new sysctl set, the following behavior can be observed (interface p8p1 is link-down): default via 10.0.5.2 dev p9p1 10.0.5.0/24 dev p9p1 proto kernel scope link src 10.0.5.15 70.0.0.0/24 dev p7p1 proto kernel scope link src 70.0.0.1 80.0.0.0/24 dev p8p1 proto kernel scope link src 80.0.0.1 dead linkdown 90.0.0.0/24 via 80.0.0.2 dev p8p1 metric 1 dead linkdown 90.0.0.0/24 via 70.0.0.2 dev p7p1 metric 2 90.0.0.1 via 70.0.0.2 dev p7p1 src 70.0.0.1 cache local 80.0.0.1 dev lo src 80.0.0.1 cache <local> 80.0.0.2 via 10.0.5.2 dev p9p1 src 10.0.5.15 cache While the route does remain in the table (so it can be modified if needed rather than being wiped away as it would be if IFF_UP was cleared), the proper next-hop is chosen automatically when the link is down. Now interface p8p1 is linked-up: default via 10.0.5.2 dev p9p1 10.0.5.0/24 dev p9p1 proto kernel scope link src 10.0.5.15 70.0.0.0/24 dev p7p1 proto kernel scope link src 70.0.0.1 80.0.0.0/24 dev p8p1 proto kernel scope link src 80.0.0.1 90.0.0.0/24 via 80.0.0.2 dev p8p1 metric 1 90.0.0.0/24 via 70.0.0.2 dev p7p1 metric 2 192.168.56.0/24 dev p2p1 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.56.2 90.0.0.1 via 80.0.0.2 dev p8p1 src 80.0.0.1 cache local 80.0.0.1 dev lo src 80.0.0.1 cache <local> 80.0.0.2 dev p8p1 src 80.0.0.1 cache and the output changes to what one would expect. If the sysctl is not set, the following output would be expected when p8p1 is down: default via 10.0.5.2 dev p9p1 10.0.5.0/24 dev p9p1 proto kernel scope link src 10.0.5.15 70.0.0.0/24 dev p7p1 proto kernel scope link src 70.0.0.1 80.0.0.0/24 dev p8p1 proto kernel scope link src 80.0.0.1 linkdown 90.0.0.0/24 via 80.0.0.2 dev p8p1 metric 1 linkdown 90.0.0.0/24 via 70.0.0.2 dev p7p1 metric 2 Since the dead flag does not appear, there should be no expectation that the kernel would skip using this route due to link being down. v2: Split kernel changes into 2 patches, this actually makes a behavioral change if the sysctl is set. Also took suggestion from Alex to simplify code by only checking sysctl during fib lookup and suggestion from Scott to add a per-interface sysctl. v3: Code clean-ups to make it more readable and efficient as well as a reverse path check fix. v4: Drop binary sysctl v5: Whitespace fixups from Dave v6: Style changes from Dave and checkpatch suggestions v7: One more checkpatch fixup Signed-off-by: Andy Gospodarek <gospo@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: Dinesh Dutt <ddutt@cumulusnetworks.com> Acked-by: Scott Feldman <sfeldma@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2015-04-03ipv4: coding style: comparison for inequality with NULLIan Morris
The ipv4 code uses a mixture of coding styles. In some instances check for non-NULL pointer is done as x != NULL and sometimes as x. x is preferred according to checkpatch and this patch makes the code consistent by adopting the latter form.

2015-03-31netlink: implement nla_put_in_addr and nla_put_in6_addrJiri Benc
IP addresses are often stored in netlink attributes. Add generic functions to do that. For nla_put_in_addr, it would be nicer to pass struct in_addr but this is not used universally throughout the kernel, in way too many places __be32 is used to store IPv4 address.

2015-03-18ipv4, ipv6: kill ip_mc_{join, leave}_group and ipv6_sock_mc_{join, drop}Marcelo Ricardo Leitner
in favor of their inner __ ones, which doesn't grab rtnl. As these functions need to operate on a locked socket, we can't be grabbing rtnl by then. It's too late and doing so causes reversed locking. So this patch: - move rtnl handling to callers instead while already fixing some reversed locking situations, like on vxlan and ipvs code. - renames __ ones to not have the __ mark: __ip_mc_{join,leave}_group -> ip_mc_{join,leave}_group __ipv6_sock_mc_{join,drop} -> ipv6_sock_mc_{join,drop} Signed-off-by: Marcelo Ricardo Leitner <marcelo.leitner@gmail.com> Acked-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@stressinduktion.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
