2008-06-16atm: [br2684] Fix oops due to skb->dev being NULLJorge Boncompte [DTI2]
It happens that if a packet arrives in a VC between the call to open it on the hardware and the call to change the backend to br2684, br2684_regvcc processes the packet and oopses dereferencing skb->dev because it is NULL before the call to br2684_push().

2008-06-16raw: Restore /proc/net/raw correct behaviorEric Dumazet
I just noticed "cat /proc/net/raw" was buggy, missing '\n' separators. I believe this was introduced by commit 8cd850efa4948d57a2ed836911cfd1ab299e89c6 ([RAW]: Cleanup IPv4 raw_seq_show.) This trivial patch restores correct behavior, and applies to current Linus tree (should also be applied to stable tree as well.)

2008-06-16net: Fix test for VLAN TX checksum offload capabilityBen Hutchings
Selected device feature bits can be propagated to VLAN devices, so we can make use of TX checksum offload and TSO on VLAN-tagged packets. However, if the physical device does not do VLAN tag insertion or generic checksum offload then the test for TX checksum offload in dev_queue_xmit() will see a protocol of htons(ETH_P_8021Q) and yield false. This splits the checksum offload test into two functions: - can_checksum_protocol() tests a given protocol against a feature bitmask - dev_can_checksum() first tests the skb protocol against the device features; if that fails and the protocol is htons(ETH_P_8021Q) then it tests the encapsulated protocol against the effective device features for VLANs Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Acked-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-06-12tcp: Revert 'process defer accept as established' changes.David S. Miller
This reverts two changesets, ec3c0982a2dd1e671bad8e9d26c28dcba0039d87 ("[TCP]: TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT updates - process as established") and the follow-on bug fix 9ae27e0adbf471c7a6b80102e38e1d5a346b3b38 ("tcp: Fix slab corruption with ipv6 and tcp6fuzz"). This change causes several problems, first reported by Ingo Molnar as a distcc-over-loopback regression where connections were getting stuck. Ilpo Järvinen first spotted the locking problems. The new function added by this code, tcp_defer_accept_check(), only has the child socket locked, yet it is modifying state of the parent listening socket. Fixing that is non-trivial at best, because we can't simply just grab the parent listening socket lock at this point, because it would create an ABBA deadlock. The normal ordering is parent listening socket --> child socket, but this code path would require the reverse lock ordering. Next is a problem noticed by Vitaliy Gusev, he noted: ---------------------------------------- >--- a/net/ipv4/tcp_timer.c >+++ b/net/ipv4/tcp_timer.c >@@ -481,6 +481,11 @@ static void tcp_keepalive_timer (unsigned long data) > goto death; > } > >+ if (tp->defer_tcp_accept.request && sk->sk_state == TCP_ESTABLISHED) { >+ tcp_send_active_reset(sk, GFP_ATOMIC); >+ goto death; Here socket sk is not attached to listening socket's request queue. tcp_done() will not call inet_csk_destroy_sock() (and tcp_v4_destroy_sock() which should release this sk) as socket is not DEAD. Therefore socket sk will be lost for freeing. ---------------------------------------- Finally, Alexey Kuznetsov argues that there might not even be any real value or advantage to these new semantics even if we fix all of the bugs: ---------------------------------------- Hiding from accept() sockets with only out-of-order data only is the only thing which is impossible with old approach. Is this really so valuable? My opinion: no, this is nothing but a new loophole to consume memory without control. ---------------------------------------- So revert this thing for now.

2008-06-12ipv6: Fix duplicate initialization of rawv6_prot.destroyDavid S. Miller
In changeset 22dd485022f3d0b162ceb5e67d85de7c3806aa20 ("raw: Raw socket leak.") code was added so that we flush pending frames on raw sockets to avoid leaks. The ipv4 part was fine, but the ipv6 part was not done correctly. Unlike the ipv4 side, the ipv6 code already has a .destroy method for rawv6_prot. So now there were two assignments to this member, and what the compiler does is use the last one, effectively making the ipv6 parts of that changeset a NOP. Fix this by removing the: .destroy = inet6_destroy_sock, line, and adding an inet6_destroy_sock() call to the end of raw6_destroy(). Noticed by Al Viro. Signed-off-by: David S.

When creation of a new conntrack entry in ctnetlink fails after having set up the NAT mappings, the conntrack has an extension area allocated that is not getting properly destroyed when freeing the conntrack again.

2008-06-11dccp ccid-3: X truncated due to type conversionGerrit Renker
This fixes a bug in computing the inter-packet-interval t_ipi = s/X: scaled_div32(a, b) uses u32 for b, but in "scaled_div32(s, X)" the type of the sending rate `X' is u64.

2008-06-11dccp ccid-3: TFRC reverse-lookup Bug-FixGerrit Renker
This fixes a bug in the reverse lookup of p: given a value f(p), instead of p, the function returned the smallest tabulated value f(p). The smallest tabulated value of 10^6 * f(p) = sqrt(2*p/3) + 12 * sqrt(3*p/8) * (32 * p^3 + p) for p=0.0001 is 8172. Since this value is scaled by 10^6, the outcome of this bug is that a loss of 8172/10^6 = 0.8172% was reported whenever the input was below the table resolution of 0.01%. This means that the value was over 80 times too high, resulting in large spikes of the initial loss interval, thus unnecessarily reducing the throughput. Also corrected the printk format (%u for u32). Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk>
2008-06-11dccp ccid-2: Bug-Fix - Ack Vectors need to be ignored on request socketsGerrit Renker
This fixes an oversight from an earlier patch, ensuring that Ack Vectors are not processed on request sockets. The issue is that Ack Vectors must not be parsed on request sockets, since the Ack Vector feature depends on the selection of the (TX) CCID. During the initial handshake the CCIDs are undefined, and so RFC 4340, 10.3 applies: "Using CCID-specific options and feature options during a negotiation for the corresponding CCID feature is NOT RECOMMENDED [...]" And it is not even possible: when the server receives the Request from the client, the CCID and Ack vector features are undefined; when the Ack finalising the 3-way hanshake arrives, the request socket has not been cloned yet into a full socket. (This order is necessary, since otherwise the newly created socket would have to be destroyed whenever an option error occurred - a malicious hacker could simply send garbage options and exploit this.)

2008-06-11dccp ccid-3: Bug-Fix - Zero RTT is possibleGerrit Renker
In commit $(825de27d9e40b3117b29a79d412b7a4b78c5d815) (from 27th May, commit message `dccp ccid-3: Fix "t_ipi explosion" bug'), the CCID-3 window counter computation was fixed to cope with RTTs < 4 microseconds. Such RTTs can be found e.g. when running CCID-3 over loopback. The fix removed a check against RTT < 4, but introduced a divide-by-zero bug. All steady-state RTTs in DCCP are filtered using dccp_sample_rtt(), which ensures non-zero samples. However, a zero RTT is possible on initialisation, when there is no RTT sample from the Request/Response exchange. The fix is to use the fallback-RTT from RFC 4340, 3.4. This is also better than just fixing update_win_count() since it allows other parts of the code to always assume that the RTT is non-zero during the time that the CCID is used.

An invalid length could cause overflow when calculating buffer size for decoding oid. - An oid length of zero is invalid and allows for an off-by-one error when decoding oid because the first subid actually encodes first 2 subids. - A primitive encoding may not have an indefinite length.

2008-06-04tcp: Fix for race due to temporary drop of the socket lock in skb_splice_bits.Octavian Purdila
skb_splice_bits temporary drops the socket lock while iterating over the socket queue in order to break a reverse locking condition which happens with sendfile. This, however, opens a window of opportunity for tcp_collapse() to aggregate skbs and thus potentially free the current skb used in skb_splice_bits and tcp_read_sock. This patch fixes the problem by (re-)getting the same "logical skb" after the lock has been temporary dropped. Based on idea and initial patch from Evgeniy Polyakov.

2008-06-04raw: Raw socket leak.Denis V. Lunev
The program below just leaks the raw kernel socket int main() { int fd = socket(PF_INET, SOCK_RAW, IPPROTO_UDP); struct sockaddr_in addr; memset(&addr, 0, sizeof(addr)); inet_aton("127.0.0.1", &addr.sin_addr); addr.sin_family = AF_INET; addr.sin_port = htons(2048); sendto(fd, "a", 1, MSG_MORE, &addr, sizeof(addr)); return 0; } Corked packet is allocated via sock_wmalloc which holds the owner socket, so one should uncork it and flush all pending data on close. Do this in the same way as in UDP. Signed-off-by: Denis V. Lunev <den@openvz.org> Acked-by: Alexey Kuznetsov <kuznet@ms2.inr.ac.ru> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-06-04sctp: Fix ECN markings for IPv6Vlad Yasevich
Commit e9df2e8fd8fbc95c57dbd1d33dada66c4627b44c ("[IPV6]: Use appropriate sock tclass setting for routing lookup.") also changed the way that ECN capable transports mark this capability in IPv6. As a result, SCTP was not marking ECN capablity because the traffic class was never set. This patch brings back the markings for IPv6 traffic.

2008-06-04sctp: Flush the queue only once during fast retransmit.Vlad Yasevich
When fast retransmit is triggered by a sack, we should flush the queue only once so that only 1 retransmit happens. Also, since we could potentially have non-fast-rtx chunks on the retransmit queue, we need make sure any chunks eligable for fast retransmit are sent first during fast retransmission.

2008-06-04sctp: Start T3-RTX timer when fast retransmitting lowest TSNVlad Yasevich
When we are trying to fast retransmit the lowest outstanding TSN, we need to restart the T3-RTX timer, so that subsequent timeouts will correctly tag all the packets necessary for retransmissions.
