2015-02-05pktgen: fix UDP checksum computationSabrina Dubroca
This patch fixes two issues in UDP checksum computation in pktgen. First, the pseudo-header uses the source and destination IP addresses. Currently, the ports are used for IPv4. Second, the UDP checksum covers both header and data. So we need to generate the data earlier (move pktgen_finalize_skb up), and compute the checksum for UDP header + data.

2015-02-05net: ipv6: allow explicitly choosing optimistic addressesErik Kline
RFC 4429 ("Optimistic DAD") states that optimistic addresses should be treated as deprecated addresses. From section 2.1: Unless noted otherwise, components of the IPv6 protocol stack should treat addresses in the Optimistic state equivalently to those in the Deprecated state, indicating that the address is available for use but should not be used if another suitable address is available. Optimistic addresses are indeed avoided when other addresses are available (i.e. at source address selection time), but they have not heretofore been available for things like explicit bind() and sendmsg() with struct in6_pktinfo, etc. This change makes optimistic addresses treated more like deprecated addresses than tentative ones.

2015-02-05flowcache: Fix kernel panic in flow_cache_flush_taskMiroslav Urbanek
flow_cache_flush_task references a structure member flow_cache_gc_work where it should reference flow_cache_flush_task instead. Kernel panic occurs on kernels using IPsec during XFRM garbage collection. The garbage collection interval can be shortened using the following sysctl settings: net.ipv4.xfrm4_gc_thresh=4 net.ipv6.xfrm6_gc_thresh=4 With the default settings, our productions servers crash approximately once a week. With the settings above, they crash immediately.

2015-02-03ipv6: Select fragment id during UFO segmentation if not set.Vlad Yasevich
If the IPv6 fragment id has not been set and we perform fragmentation due to UFO, select a new fragment id. We now consider a fragment id of 0 as unset and if id selection process returns 0 (after all the pertrubations), we set it to 0x80000000, thus giving us ample space not to create collisions with the next packet we may have to fragment. When doing UFO integrity checking, we also select the fragment id if it has not be set yet. This is stored into the skb_shinfo() thus allowing UFO to function correclty. This patch also removes duplicate fragment id generation code and moves ipv6_select_ident() into the header as it may be used during GSO.

2015-02-01ipv4: tcp: get rid of ugly unicast_sockEric Dumazet
In commit be9f4a44e7d41 ("ipv4: tcp: remove per net tcp_sock") I tried to address contention on a socket lock, but the solution I chose was horrible : commit 3a7c384ffd57e ("ipv4: tcp: unicast_sock should not land outside of TCP stack") addressed a selinux regression. commit 0980e56e506b ("ipv4: tcp: set unicast_sock uc_ttl to -1") took care of another regression. commit b5ec8eeac46 ("ipv4: fix ip_send_skb()") fixed another regression. commit 811230cd85 ("tcp: ipv4: initialize unicast_sock sk_pacing_rate") was another shot in the dark. Really, just use a proper socket per cpu, and remove the skb_orphan() call, to re-enable flow control. This solves a serious problem with FQ packet scheduler when used in hostile environments, as we do not want to allocate a flow structure for every RST packet sent in response to a spoofed packet.

sctp_process_param When making use of RFC5061, section 4.2.4. for setting the primary IP address, we're passing a wrong parameter header to param_type2af(), resulting always in NULL being returned. At this point, param.p points to a sctp_addip_param struct, containing a sctp_paramhdr (type = 0xc004, length = var), and crr_id as a correlation id. Followed by that, as also presented in RFC5061 section 4.2.4., comes the actual sctp_addr_param, which also contains a sctp_paramhdr, but this time with the correct type SCTP_PARAM_IPV{4,6}_ADDRESS that param_type2af() can make use of. Since we already hold a pointer to addr_param from previous line, just reuse it for param_type2af().

src_net points to the netns where the netlink message has been received. This netns may be different from the netns where the interface is created (because the user may add IFLA_NET_NS_[PID|FD]). In this case, src_net is the link netns. It seems wrong to override the netns in the newlink() handler because if it was not already src_net, it means that the user explicitly asks to create the netdevice in another netns.

2015-01-28tcp: fix timing issue in CUBIC slope calculationNeal Cardwell
This patch fixes a bug in CUBIC that causes cwnd to increase slightly too slowly when multiple ACKs arrive in the same jiffy. If cwnd is supposed to increase at a rate of more than once per jiffy, then CUBIC was sometimes too slow. Because the bic_target is calculated for a future point in time, calculated with time in jiffies, the cwnd can increase over the course of the jiffy while the bic_target calculated as the proper CUBIC cwnd at time t=tcp_time_stamp+rtt does not increase, because tcp_time_stamp only increases on jiffy tick boundaries. So since the cnt is set to: ca->cnt = cwnd / (bic_target - cwnd); as cwnd increases but bic_target does not increase due to jiffy granularity, the cnt becomes too large, causing cwnd to increase too slowly. For example: - suppose at the beginning of a jiffy, cwnd=40, bic_target=44 - so CUBIC sets: ca->cnt = cwnd / (bic_target - cwnd) = 40 / (44 - 40) = 40/4 = 10 - suppose we get 10 acks, each for 1 segment, so tcp_cong_avoid_ai() increases cwnd to 41 - so CUBIC sets: ca->cnt = cwnd / (bic_target - cwnd) = 41 / (44 - 41) = 41 / 3 = 13 So now CUBIC will wait for 13 packets to be ACKed before increasing cwnd to 42, insted of 10 as it should. The fix is to avoid adjusting the slope (determined by ca->cnt) multiple times within a jiffy, and instead skip to compute the Reno cwnd, the "TCP friendliness" code path.

2015-01-28tcp: stretch ACK fixes prepNeal Cardwell
LRO, GRO, delayed ACKs, and middleboxes can cause "stretch ACKs" that cover more than the RFC-specified maximum of 2 packets. These stretch ACKs can cause serious performance shortfalls in common congestion control algorithms that were designed and tuned years ago with receiver hosts that were not using LRO or GRO, and were instead politely ACKing every other packet. This patch series fixes Reno and CUBIC to handle stretch ACKs. This patch prepares for the upcoming stretch ACK bug fix patches. It adds an "acked" parameter to tcp_cong_avoid_ai() to allow for future fixes to tcp_cong_avoid_ai() to correctly handle stretch ACKs, and changes all congestion control algorithms to pass in 1 for the ACKed count. It also changes tcp_slow_start() to return the number of packet ACK "credits" that were not processed in slow start mode, and can be processed by the congestion control module in additive increase mode. In future patches we will fix tcp_cong_avoid_ai() to handle stretch ACKs, and fix Reno and CUBIC handling of stretch ACKs in slow start and additive increase mode.

2015-01-26ipv4: try to cache dst_entries which would cause a redirectHannes Frederic Sowa
Not caching dst_entries which cause redirects could be exploited by hosts on the same subnet, causing a severe DoS attack. This effect aggravated since commit f88649721268999 ("ipv4: fix dst race in sk_dst_get()"). Lookups causing redirects will be allocated with DST_NOCACHE set which will force dst_release to free them via RCU. Unfortunately waiting for RCU grace period just takes too long, we can end up with >1M dst_entries waiting to be released and the system will run OOM. rcuos threads cannot catch up under high softirq load. Attaching the flag to emit a redirect later on to the specific skb allows us to cache those dst_entries thus reducing the pressure on allocation and deallocation.

Reference counting of auth keys revisited: Shared keys for AUTH chunks are being stored in endpoints and associations in endpoint_shared_keys list. On endpoint creation, a null key is being added; on association creation, all endpoint shared keys are being cached and thus cloned over to the association. struct sctp_shared_key only holds a pointer to the actual key bytes, that is, struct sctp_auth_bytes which keeps track of users internally through refcounting. Naturally, on assoc or enpoint destruction, sctp_shared_key are being destroyed directly and the reference on sctp_auth_bytes dropped. User space can add keys to either list via setsockopt(2) through struct sctp_authkey and by passing that to sctp_auth_set_key() which replaces or adds a new auth key. There, sctp_auth_create_key() creates a new sctp_auth_bytes with refcount 1 and in case of replacement drops the reference on the old sctp_auth_bytes. A key can be set active from user space through setsockopt() on the id via sctp_auth_set_active_key(), which iterates through either endpoint_shared_keys and in case of an assoc, invokes (one of various places) sctp_auth_asoc_init_active_key(). sctp_auth_asoc_init_active_key() computes the actual secret from local's and peer's random, hmac and shared key parameters and returns a new key directly as sctp_auth_bytes, that is asoc->asoc_shared_key, plus drops the reference if there was a previous one. The secret, which where we eventually double drop the ref comes from sctp_auth_asoc_set_secret() with intitial refcount of 1, which also stays unchanged eventually in sctp_assoc_update(). This key is later being used for crypto layer to set the key for the hash in crypto_hash_setkey() from sctp_auth_calculate_hmac(). To close the loop: asoc->asoc_shared_key is freshly allocated secret material and independant of the sctp_shared_key management keeping track of only shared keys in endpoints and assocs. Hence, also commit 4184b2a79a76 ("net: sctp: fix memory leak in auth key management") is independant of this bug here since it concerns a different layer (though same structures being used eventually). asoc->asoc_shared_key is reference dropped correctly on assoc destruction in sctp_association_free() and when active keys are being replaced in sctp_auth_asoc_init_active_key(), it always has a refcount of 1. Hence, it's freed prematurely in sctp_assoc_update(). Simple fix is to remove that sctp_auth_key_put() from there which fixes these panics.

2015-01-26net: cls_bpf: fix auto generation of per list handlesDaniel Borkmann
When creating a bpf classifier in tc with priority collisions and invoking automatic unique handle assignment, cls_bpf_grab_new_handle() will return a wrong handle id which in fact is non-unique. Usually altering of specific filters is being addressed over major id, but in case of collisions we result in a filter chain, where handle ids address individual cls_bpf_progs inside the classifier. Issue is, in cls_bpf_grab_new_handle() we probe for head->hgen handle in cls_bpf_get() and in case we found a free handle, we're supposed to use exactly head->hgen. In case of insufficient numbers of handles, we bail out later as handle id 0 is not allowed.

2015-01-26net: cls_bpf: fix size mismatch on filter preparationDaniel Borkmann
In cls_bpf_modify_existing(), we read out the number of filter blocks, do some sanity checks, allocate a block on that size, and copy over the BPF instruction blob from user space, then pass everything through the classic BPF checker prior to installation of the classifier. We should reject mismatches here, there are 2 scenarios: the number of filter blocks could be smaller than the provided instruction blob, so we do a partial copy of the BPF program, and thus the instructions will either be rejected from the verifier or a valid BPF program will be run; in the other case, we'll end up copying more than we're supposed to, and most likely the trailing garbage will be rejected by the verifier as well (i.e. we need to fit instruction pattern, ret {A,K} needs to be last instruction, load/stores must be correct, etc); in case not, we would leak memory when dumping back instruction patterns. The code should have only used nla_len() as Dave noted to avoid this from the beginning. Anyway, lets fix it by rejecting such load attempts.

2015-01-25net: dsa: set slave MII bus PHY maskVivien Didelot
When registering a mdio bus, Linux assumes than every port has a PHY and tries to scan it. If a switch port has no PHY registered, DSA will fail to register the slave MII bus. To fix this, set the slave MII bus PHY mask to the switch PHYs mask. As an example, if we use a Marvell MV88E6352 (which is a 7-port switch with no registered PHYs for port 5 and port 6), with the following declared names: static struct dsa_chip_data switch_cdata = { [...] .port_names[0] = "sw0", .port_names[1] = "sw1", .port_names[2] = "sw2", .port_names[3] = "sw3", .port_names[4] = "sw4", .port_names[5] = "cpu", }; DSA will fail to create the switch instance. With the PHY mask set for the slave MII bus, only the PHY for ports 0-4 will be scanned and the instance will be successfully created.

2015-01-23mac80211: only roll back station states for WDS when suspendingLuciano Coelho
In normal cases (i.e. when we are fully associated), cfg80211 takes care of removing all the stations before calling suspend in mac80211. But in the corner case when we suspend during authentication or association, mac80211 needs to roll back the station states. But we shouldn't roll back the station states in the suspend function, because this is taken care of in other parts of the code, except for WDS interfaces. For AP types of interfaces, cfg80211 takes care of disconnecting all stations before calling the driver's suspend code. For station interfaces, this is done in the quiesce code. For WDS interfaces we still need to do it here, so move the code into a new switch case for WDS.

2015-01-17net: sctp: fix race for one-to-many sockets in sendmsg's auto associateDaniel Borkmann
I.e. one-to-many sockets in SCTP are not required to explicitly call into connect(2) or sctp_connectx(2) prior to data exchange. Instead, they can directly invoke sendmsg(2) and the SCTP stack will automatically trigger connection establishment through 4WHS via sctp_primitive_ASSOCIATE(). However, this in its current implementation is racy: INIT is being sent out immediately (as it cannot be bundled anyway) and the rest of the DATA chunks are queued up for later xmit when connection is established, meaning sendmsg(2) will return successfully. This behaviour can result in an undesired side-effect that the kernel made the application think the data has already been transmitted, although none of it has actually left the machine, worst case even after close(2)'ing the socket. Instead, when the association from client side has been shut down e.g. first gracefully through SCTP_EOF and then close(2), the client could afterwards still receive the server's INIT_ACK due to a connection with higher latency. This INIT_ACK is then considered out of the blue and hence responded with ABORT as there was no alive assoc found anymore. This can be easily reproduced f.e. with sctp_test application from lksctp. One way to fix this race is to wait for the handshake to actually complete. The fix defers waiting after sctp_primitive_ASSOCIATE() and sctp_primitive_SEND() succeeded, so that DATA chunks cooked up from sctp_sendmsg() have already been placed into the output queue through the side-effect interpreter, and therefore can then be bundeled together with COOKIE_ECHO control chunks. strace from example application (shortened): socket(PF_INET, SOCK_SEQPACKET, IPPROTO_SCTP) = 3 sendmsg(3, {msg_name(28)={sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(8888), sin_addr=inet_addr("192.168.1.115")}, msg_iov(1)=[{"hello", 5}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 5 sendmsg(3, {msg_name(28)={sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(8888), sin_addr=inet_addr("192.168.1.115")}, msg_iov(1)=[{"hello", 5}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 5 sendmsg(3, {msg_name(28)={sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(8888), sin_addr=inet_addr("192.168.1.115")}, msg_iov(1)=[{"hello", 5}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 5 sendmsg(3, {msg_name(28)={sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(8888), sin_addr=inet_addr("192.168.1.115")}, msg_iov(1)=[{"hello", 5}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 5 sendmsg(3, {msg_name(28)={sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(8888), sin_addr=inet_addr("192.168.1.115")}, msg_iov(0)=[], msg_controllen=48, {cmsg_len=48, cmsg_level=0x84 /* SOL_??? */, cmsg_type=, ...}, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 0 // graceful shutdown for SOCK_SEQPACKET via SCTP_EOF close(3) = 0 tcpdump before patch (fooling the application): 22:33:36.306142 IP 192.168.1.114.41462 > 192.168.1.115.8888: sctp (1) [INIT] [init tag: 3879023686] [rwnd: 106496] [OS: 10] [MIS: 65535] [init TSN: 3139201684] 22:33:36.316619 IP 192.168.1.115.8888 > 192.168.1.114.41462: sctp (1) [INIT ACK] [init tag: 3345394793] [rwnd: 106496] [OS: 10] [MIS: 10] [init TSN: 3380109591] 22:33:36.317600 IP 192.168.1.114.41462 > 192.168.1.115.8888: sctp (1) [ABORT] tcpdump after patch: 14:28:58.884116 IP 192.168.1.114.35846 > 192.168.1.115.8888: sctp (1) [INIT] [init tag: 438593213] [rwnd: 106496] [OS: 10] [MIS: 65535] [init TSN: 3092969729] 14:28:58.888414 IP 192.168.1.115.8888 > 192.168.1.114.35846: sctp (1) [INIT ACK] [init tag: 381429855] [rwnd: 106496] [OS: 10] [MIS: 10] [init TSN: 2141904492] 14:28:58.888638 IP 192.168.1.114.35846 > 192.168.1.115.8888: sctp (1) [COOKIE ECHO] , (2) [DATA] (B)(E) [TSN: 3092969729] [...] 14:28:58.893278 IP 192.168.1.115.8888 > 192.168.1.114.35846: sctp (1) [COOKIE ACK] , (2) [SACK] [cum ack 3092969729] [a_rwnd 106491] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] 14:28:58.893591 IP 192.168.1.114.35846 > 192.168.1.115.8888: sctp (1) [DATA] (B)(E) [TSN: 3092969730] [...] 14:28:59.096963 IP 192.168.1.115.8888 > 192.168.1.114.35846: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 3092969730] [a_rwnd 106496] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] 14:28:59.097086 IP 192.168.1.114.35846 > 192.168.1.115.8888: sctp (1) [DATA] (B)(E) [TSN: 3092969731] [...] , (2) [DATA] (B)(E) [TSN: 3092969732] [...] 14:28:59.103218 IP 192.168.1.115.8888 > 192.168.1.114.35846: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 3092969732] [a_rwnd 106486] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] 14:28:59.103330 IP 192.168.1.114.35846 > 192.168.1.115.8888: sctp (1) [SHUTDOWN] 14:28:59.107793 IP 192.168.1.115.8888 > 192.168.1.114.35846: sctp (1) [SHUTDOWN ACK] 14:28:59.107890 IP 192.168.1.114.35846 > 192.168.1.115.8888: sctp (1) [SHUTDOWN COMPLETE] Looks like this bug is from the pre-git history museum. ;) Fixes: 08707d5482df ("lksctp-2_5_31-0_5_1.patch") Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com> Acked-by: Vlad Yasevich <vyasevich@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2015-01-16genetlink: synchronize socket closing and family removalJohannes Berg
In addition to the problem Jeff Layton reported, I looked at the code and reproduced the same warning by subscribing and removing the genl family with a socket still open. This is a fairly tricky race which originates in the fact that generic netlink allows the family to go away while sockets are still open - unlike regular netlink which has a module refcount for every open socket so in general this cannot be triggered. Trying to resolve this issue by the obvious locking isn't possible as it will result in deadlocks between unregistration and group unbind notification (which incidentally lockdep doesn't find due to the home grown locking in the netlink table.) To really resolve this, introduce a "closing socket" reference counter (for generic netlink only, as it's the only affected family) in the core netlink code and use that in generic netlink to wait for all the sockets that are being closed at the same time as a generic netlink family is removed. This fixes the race that when a socket is closed, it will should call the unbind, but if the family is removed at the same time the unbind will not find it, leading to the warning. The real problem though is that in this case the unbind could actually find a new family that is registered to have a multicast group with the same ID, and call its mcast_unbind() leading to confusing. Also remove the warning since it would still trigger, but is now no longer a problem. This also moves the code in af_netlink.c to before unreferencing the module to avoid having the same problem in the normal non-genl case.

2015-01-16genetlink: disallow subscribing to unknown mcast groupsJohannes Berg
Jeff Layton reported that he could trigger the multicast unbind warning in generic netlink using trinity. I originally thought it was a race condition between unregistering the generic netlink family and closing the socket, but there's a far simpler explanation: genetlink currently allows subscribing to groups that don't (yet) exist, and the warning is triggered when unsubscribing again while the group still doesn't exist. Originally, I had a warning in the subscribe case and accepted it out of userspace API concerns, but the warning was of course wrong and removed later. However, I now think that allowing userspace to subscribe to groups that don't exist is wrong and could possibly become a security problem: Consider a (new) genetlink family implementing a permission check in the mcast_bind() function similar to the like the audit code does today; it would be possible to bypass the permission check by guessing the ID and subscribing to the group it exists. This is only possible in case a family like that would be dynamically loaded, but it doesn't seem like a huge stretch, for example wireless may be loaded when you plug in a USB device. To avoid this reject such subscription attempts. If this ends up causing userspace issues we may need to add a workaround in af_netlink to deny such requests but not return an error.

2015-01-16net: rps: fix cpu unplugEric Dumazet
softnet_data.input_pkt_queue is protected by a spinlock that we must hold when transferring packets from victim queue to an active one. This is because other cpus could still be trying to enqueue packets into victim queue. A second problem is that when we transfert the NAPI poll_list from victim to current cpu, we absolutely need to special case the percpu backlog, because we do not want to add complex locking to protect process_queue : Only owner cpu is allowed to manipulate it, unless cpu is offline. Based on initial patch from Prasad Sodagudi & Subash Abhinov Kasiviswanathan. This version is better because we do not slow down packet processing, only make migration safer.
