2016-04-26net: ipv6: Delete host routes on an ifdownDavid Ahern
It was a simple idea -- save IPv6 configured addresses on a link down so that IPv6 behaves similar to IPv4. As always the devil is in the details and the IPv6 stack as too many behavioral differences from IPv4 making the simple idea more complicated than it needs to be. The current implementation for keeping IPv6 addresses can panic or spit out a warning in one of many paths: 1. IPv6 route gets an IPv4 route as its 'next' which causes a panic in rt6_fill_node while handling a route dump request. 2. rt->dst.obsolete is set to DST_OBSOLETE_DEAD hitting the WARN_ON in fib6_del 3. Panic in fib6_purge_rt because rt6i_ref count is not 1. The root cause of all these is references related to the host route for an address that is retained. So, this patch deletes the host route every time the ifdown loop runs. Since the host route is deleted and will be re-generated an up there is no longer a need for the l3mdev fix up. On the 'admin up' side move addrconf_permanent_addr into the NETDEV_UP event handling so that it runs only once versus on UP and CHANGE events. All of the current panics and warnings appear to be related to addresses on the loopback device, but given the catastrophic nature when a bug is triggered this patch takes the conservative approach and evicts all host routes rather than trying to determine when it can be re-used and when it can not. That can be a later optimizaton if desired. Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsa@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

f1705ec197e7 added the option to retain user configured addresses on an admin down. A comment to one of the later revisions suggested using the IFA_F_PERMANENT flag rather than adding a user_managed boolean to the ifaddr struct.

2016-04-13ipv6, token: allow for clearing the current device tokenDaniel Borkmann
The original tokenized iid support implemented via f53adae4eae5 ("net: ipv6: add tokenized interface identifier support") didn't allow for clearing a device token as it was intended that this addressing mode was the only one active for globally scoped IPv6 addresses. Later we relaxed that restriction via 617fe29d45bd ("net: ipv6: only invalidate previously tokenized addresses"), and we should also allow for clearing tokens as there's no good reason why it shouldn't be allowed.

2016-04-11net: vrf: Fix dev refcnt leak due to IPv6 prefix routeDavid Ahern
ifupdown2 found a kernel bug with IPv6 routes and movement from the main table to the VRF table. Sequence of events: Create the interface and add addresses: ip link add dev eth4.105 link eth4 type vlan id 105 ip addr add dev eth4.105 8.105.105.10/24 ip -6 addr add dev eth4.105 2008:105:105::10/64 At this point IPv6 has inserted a prefix route in the main table even though the interface is 'down'. From there the VRF device is created: ip link add dev vrf105 type vrf table 105 ip addr add dev vrf105 9.9.105.10/32 ip -6 addr add dev vrf105 2000:9:105::10/128 ip link set vrf105 up Then the interface is enslaved, while still in the 'down' state: ip link set dev eth4.105 master vrf105 Since the device is down the VRF driver cycling the device does not send the NETDEV_UP and NETDEV_DOWN but rather the NETDEV_CHANGE event which does not flush the routes inserted prior. When the link is brought up ip link set dev eth4.105 up the prefix route is added in the VRF table, but does not remove the route from the main table. Fix by handling the NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER event similar what was implemented for IPv4 in 7f49e7a38b77 ("net: Flush local routes when device changes vrf association") Fixes: 35402e3136634 ("net: Add IPv6 support to VRF device") Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsa@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Commit f1705ec197e70 allows IPv6 addresses to be retained on a link down. The address can have a cached host route which can point to the wrong FIB table if the L3 enslavement is changed (e.g., route can point to local table instead of VRF table if device is added to an L3 domain).

2016-02-25net: ipv6: Make address flushing on ifdown optionalDavid Ahern
Currently, all ipv6 addresses are flushed when the interface is configured down, including global, static addresses: $ ip -6 addr show dev eth1 3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 state UP qlen 1000 inet6 2100:1::2/120 scope global valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet6 fe80::e0:f9ff:fe79:34bd/64 scope link valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever $ ip link set dev eth1 down $ ip -6 addr show dev eth1 << nothing; all addresses have been flushed>> Add a new sysctl to make this behavior optional. The new setting defaults to flush all addresses to maintain backwards compatibility. When the set global addresses with no expire times are not flushed on an admin down. The sysctl is per-interface or system-wide for all interfaces $ sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.eth1.keep_addr_on_down=1 or $ sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.keep_addr_on_down=1 Will keep addresses on eth1 on an admin down. $ ip -6 addr show dev eth1 3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 state UP qlen 1000 inet6 2100:1::2/120 scope global valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet6 fe80::e0:f9ff:fe79:34bd/64 scope link valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever $ ip link set dev eth1 down $ ip -6 addr show dev eth1 3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 state DOWN qlen 1000 inet6 2100:1::2/120 scope global tentative valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet6 fe80::e0:f9ff:fe79:34bd/64 scope link tentative valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsa@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2015-12-18ipv6: addrconf: use stable address generator for ARPHRD_NONEBjørn Mork
Add a new address generator mode, using the stable address generator with an automatically generated secret. This is intended as a default address generator mode for device types with no EUI64 implementation. The new generator is used for ARPHRD_NONE interfaces initially, adding default IPv6 autoconf support to e.g. tun interfaces. If the addrgenmode is set to 'random', either by default or manually, and no stable secret is available, then a random secret is used as input for the stable-privacy address generator. The secret can be read and modified like manually configured secrets, using the proc interface. Modifying the secret will change the addrgen mode to 'stable-privacy' to indicate that it operates on a known secret. Existing behaviour of the 'stable-privacy' mode is kept unchanged. If a known secret is available when the device is created, then the mode will default to 'stable-privacy' as before. The mode can be manually set to 'random' but it will behave exactly like 'stable-privacy' in this case. The secret will not change.

This patch removes ARPHRD_IEEE802154 from addrconf handling.

2015-12-03net: ipv6: restrict hop_limit sysctl setting to range [1; 255]Phil Sutter
Setting a value bigger than 255 resulted in using only the lower eight bits of that value as it is assigned to the u8 header field. To avoid this unexpected result, reject such values. Setting a value of zero is technically possible, but hosts receiving such a packet have to treat it like hop_limit was set to one, according to RFC2460. Therefore I don't see a use-case for that. Setting a route's hop_limit to zero in iproute2 means to use the sysctl default, which is not the case here: Setting e.g. net.conf.eth0.hop_limit=0 will not make the kernel use net.conf.all.hop_limit for outgoing packets on eth0.

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.

The flow flags are used to skip oif compare in nexthop lookups if the device is enslaved to a VRF via the L3 master device.

2015-09-15rtnetlink: RTEXT_FILTER_SKIP_STATS support to avoid dumping inet/inet6 statsSowmini Varadhan
Many commonly used functions like getifaddrs() invoke RTM_GETLINK to dump the interface information, and do not need the the AF_INET6 statististics that are always returned by default from rtnl_fill_ifinfo(). Computing the statistics can be an expensive operation that impacts scaling, so it is desirable to avoid this if the information is not needed. This patch adds a the RTEXT_FILTER_SKIP_STATS extended info flag that can be passed with netlink_request() to avoid statistics computation for the ifinfo path.

2015-09-15ipv6: Avoid double dst_freeMartin KaFai Lau
It is a prep work to get dst freeing from fib tree undergo a rcu grace period. The following is a common paradigm: if (ip6_del_rt(rt)) dst_free(rt) which means, if rt cannot be deleted from the fib tree, dst_free(rt) now. 1. We don't know the ip6_del_rt(rt) failure is because it was not managed by fib tree (e.g. DST_NOCACHE) or it had already been removed from the fib tree. 2. If rt had been managed by the fib tree, ip6_del_rt(rt) failure means dst_free(rt) has been called already. A second dst_free(rt) is not always obviously safe. The rt may have been destroyed already. 3. If rt is a DST_NOCACHE, dst_free(rt) should not be called. 4. It is a stopper to make dst freeing from fib tree undergo a rcu grace period. This patch is to use a DST_NOCACHE flag to indicate a rt is not managed by the fib tree. Signed-off-by: Martin KaFai Lau <kafai@fb.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dledford/rdma Pull inifiniband/rdma updates from Doug Ledford: "This is a fairly sizeable set of changes. I've put them through a decent amount of testing prior to sending the pull request due to that. There are still a few fixups that I know are coming, but I wanted to go ahead and get the big, sizable chunk into your hands sooner rather than waiting for those last few fixups. Of note is the fact that this creates what is intended to be a temporary area in the drivers/staging tree specifically for some cleanups and additions that are coming for the RDMA stack. We deprecated two drivers (ipath and amso1100) and are waiting to hear back if we can deprecate another one (ehca). We also put Intel's new hfi1 driver into this area because it needs to be refactored and a transfer library created out of the factored out code, and then it and the qib driver and the soft-roce driver should all be modified to use that library. I expect drivers/staging/rdma to be around for three or four kernel releases and then to go away as all of the work is completed and final deletions of deprecated drivers are done. Summary of changes for 4.3: - Create drivers/staging/rdma - Move amso1100 driver to staging/rdma and schedule for deletion - Move ipath driver to staging/rdma and schedule for deletion - Add hfi1 driver to staging/rdma and set TODO for move to regular tree - Initial support for namespaces to be used on RDMA devices - Add RoCE GID table handling to the RDMA core caching code - Infrastructure to support handling of devices with differing read and write scatter gather capabilities - Various iSER updates - Kill off unsafe usage of global mr registrations - Update SRP driver - Misc mlx4 driver updates - Support for the mr_alloc verb - Support for a netlink interface between kernel and user space cache daemon to speed path record queries and route resolution - Ininitial support for safe hot removal of verbs devices" * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dledford/rdma: (136 commits) IB/ipoib: Suppress warning for send only join failures IB/ipoib: Clean up send-only multicast joins IB/srp: Fix possible protection fault IB/core: Move SM class defines from ib_mad.h to ib_smi.h IB/core: Remove unnecessary defines from ib_mad.h IB/hfi1: Add PSM2 user space header to header_install IB/hfi1: Add CSRs for CONFIG_SDMA_VERBOSITY mlx5: Fix incorrect wc pkey_index assignment for GSI messages IB/mlx5: avoid destroying a NULL mr in reg_user_mr error flow IB/uverbs: reject invalid or unknown opcodes IB/cxgb4: Fix if statement in pick_local_ip6adddrs IB/sa: Fix rdma netlink message flags IB/ucma: HW Device hot-removal support IB/mlx4_ib: Disassociate support IB/uverbs: Enable device removal when there are active user space applications IB/uverbs: Explicitly pass ib_dev to uverbs commands IB/uverbs: Fix race between ib_uverbs_open and remove_one IB/uverbs: Fix reference counting usage of event files IB/core: Make ib_dealloc_pd return void IB/srp: Create an insecure all physical rkey only if needed ...
2015-08-30net: Optimize snmp stat aggregation by walking all the percpu data at onceRaghavendra K T
Docker container creation linearly increased from around 1.6 sec to 7.5 sec (at 1000 containers) and perf data showed 50% ovehead in snmp_fold_field. reason: currently __snmp6_fill_stats64 calls snmp_fold_field that walks through per cpu data of an item (iteratively for around 36 items). idea: This patch tries to aggregate the statistics by going through all the items of each cpu sequentially which is reducing cache misses.

For loopback purposes, RoCE devices should have a default GID in the port GID table, even when the interface is down. In order to do so, we use the IPv6 link local address which would have been genenrated for the related Ethernet netdevice when it goes up as a default GID. addrconf_ifid_eui48 is used to gernerate this address, export it.

2015-08-13net: ipv6 sysctl option to ignore routes when nexthop link is downAndy Gospodarek
Like the ipv4 patch with a similar title, this adds a sysctl to allow the user to change routing behavior based on whether or not the interface associated with the nexthop was an up or down link. The default setting preserves the current behavior, but anyone that enables it will notice that nexthops on down interfaces will no longer be selected: net.ipv6.conf.all.ignore_routes_with_linkdown = 0 net.ipv6.conf.default.ignore_routes_with_linkdown = 0 net.ipv6.conf.lo.ignore_routes_with_linkdown = 0 ... When the above sysctls are set, not only will link status be reported to userspace, but an indication that a nexthop is dead and will not be used is also reported. 1000::/8 via 7000::2 dev p7p1 metric 1024 dead linkdown pref medium 1000::/8 via 8000::2 dev p8p1 metric 1024 pref medium 7000::/8 dev p7p1 proto kernel metric 256 dead linkdown pref medium 8000::/8 dev p8p1 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium 9000::/8 via 8000::2 dev p8p1 metric 2048 pref medium 9000::/8 via 7000::2 dev p7p1 metric 1024 dead linkdown pref medium fe80::/64 dev p7p1 proto kernel metric 256 dead linkdown pref medium fe80::/64 dev p8p1 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium This also adds devconf support and notification when sysctl values change. v2: drop use of rt6i_nhflags since it is not needed right now Signed-off-by: Andy Gospodarek <gospo@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: Dinesh Dutt <ddutt@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2015-07-30net/ipv6: add sysctl option accept_ra_min_hop_limitHangbin Liu
Commit 6fd99094de2b ("ipv6: Don't reduce hop limit for an interface") disabled accept hop limit from RA if it is smaller than the current hop limit for security stuff. But this behavior kind of break the RFC definition. RFC 4861, 6.3.4. Processing Received Router Advertisements A Router Advertisement field (e.g., Cur Hop Limit, Reachable Time, and Retrans Timer) may contain a value denoting that it is unspecified. In such cases, the parameter should be ignored and the host should continue using whatever value it is already using. If the received Cur Hop Limit value is non-zero, the host SHOULD set its CurHopLimit variable to the received value. So add sysctl option accept_ra_min_hop_limit to let user choose the minimum hop limit value they can accept from RA. And set default to 1 to meet RFC standards.
