2014-08-19ieee802154: 6lowpan: ensure of sending 1280 packetsAlexander Aring
This patch changes the 1281 MTU to 1280. Others stack have only a 1280 byte array for uncompressed 6LoWPAN packets, this avoid that these stacks have an overflow. Sending 1281 uncompressed 6LoWPAN packets isn't also rfc complaint. Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring <alex.aring@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>

2014-08-18netfilter: move NAT Kconfig switches out of the iptables scopePablo Neira Ayuso
Currently, the NAT configs depend on iptables and ip6tables. However, users should be capable of enabling NAT for nft without having to switch on iptables. Fix this by adding new specific IP_NF_NAT and IP6_NF_NAT config switches for iptables and ip6tables NAT support. I have also moved the original NF_NAT_IPV4 and NF_NAT_IPV6 configs out of the scope of iptables to make them independent of it. This patch also adds NETFILTER_XT_NAT which selects the xt_nat combo that provides snat/dnat for iptables. We cannot use NF_NAT anymore since nf_tables can select this.

2014-08-16batman-adv: Fix parameter order of hlist_add_behindSven Eckelmann
1d023284c31a4e40a94d5bbcb7dbb7a35ee0bcbc ("list: fix order of arguments for hlist_add_after(_rcu)") was incorrectly rebased on top of d9124268d84a836f14a6ead54ff9d8eee4c43be5 ("batman-adv: Fix out-of-order fragmentation support"). The parameter order change of the rebased patch was not re-applied as expected. This causes a memory leak and can cause crashes when out-of-order packets are received. hlist_add_behind will try to access the uninitalized list pointers of frag_entry_new to find the previous/next entry and may modify/read random memory locations.

2014-08-14tcp: fix ssthresh and undo for consecutive short FRTO episodesNeal Cardwell
Fix TCP FRTO logic so that it always notices when snd_una advances, indicating that any RTO after that point will be a new and distinct loss episode. Previously there was a very specific sequence that could cause FRTO to fail to notice a new loss episode had started: (1) RTO timer fires, enter FRTO and retransmit packet 1 in write queue (2) receiver ACKs packet 1 (3) FRTO sends 2 more packets (4) RTO timer fires again (should start a new loss episode) The problem was in step (3) above, where tcp_process_loss() returned early (in the spot marked "Step 2.b"), so that it never got to the logic to clear icsk_retransmits. Thus icsk_retransmits stayed non-zero. Thus in step (4) tcp_enter_loss() would see the non-zero icsk_retransmits, decide that this RTO is not a new episode, and decide not to cut ssthresh and remember the current cwnd and ssthresh for undo. There were two main consequences to the bug that we have observed. First, ssthresh was not decreased in step (4). Second, when there was a series of such FRTO (1-4) sequences that happened to be followed by an FRTO undo, we would restore the cwnd and ssthresh from before the entire series started (instead of the cwnd and ssthresh from before the most recent RTO). This could result in cwnd and ssthresh being restored to values much bigger than the proper values.

2014-08-14tcp: don't allow syn packets without timestamps to pass tcp_tw_recycle logicHannes Frederic Sowa
tcp_tw_recycle heavily relies on tcp timestamps to build a per-host ordering of incoming connections and teardowns without the need to hold state on a specific quadruple for TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN, but only for the last measured RTO. To do so, we keep the last seen timestamp in a per-host indexed data structure and verify if the incoming timestamp in a connection request is strictly greater than the saved one during last connection teardown. Thus we can verify later on that no old data packets will be accepted by the new connection. During moving a socket to time-wait state we already verify if timestamps where seen on a connection. Only if that was the case we let the time-wait socket expire after the RTO, otherwise normal TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN will be used. But we don't verify this on incoming SYN packets. If a connection teardown was less than TCP_PAWS_MSL seconds in the past we cannot guarantee to not accept data packets from an old connection if no timestamps are present. We should drop this SYN packet. This patch closes this loophole. Please note, this patch does not make tcp_tw_recycle in any way more usable but only adds another safety check: Sporadic drops of SYN packets because of reordering in the network or in the socket backlog queues can happen. Users behing NAT trying to connect to a tcp_tw_recycle enabled server can get caught in blackholes and their connection requests may regullary get dropped because hosts behind an address translator don't have synchronized tcp timestamp clocks. tcp_tw_recycle cannot work if peers don't have tcp timestamps enabled. In general, use of tcp_tw_recycle is disadvised.

2014-08-14sit: Fix ipip6_tunnel_lookup device matching criteriaShmulik Ladkani
As of 4fddbf5d78 ("sit: strictly restrict incoming traffic to tunnel link device"), when looking up a tunnel, tunnel's underlying interface (t->parms.link) is verified to match incoming traffic's ingress device. However the comparison was incorrectly based on skb->dev->iflink. Instead, dev->ifindex should be used, which correctly represents the interface from which the IP stack hands the ipip6 packets. This allows setting up sit tunnels bound to vlan interfaces (otherwise incoming ipip6 traffic on the vlan interface was dropped due to ipip6_tunnel_lookup match failure).

2014-08-11net: Always untag vlan-tagged traffic on input.Vlad Yasevich
Currently the functionality to untag traffic on input resides as part of the vlan module and is build only when VLAN support is enabled in the kernel. When VLAN is disabled, the function vlan_untag() turns into a stub and doesn't really untag the packets. This seems to create an interesting interaction between VMs supporting checksum offloading and some network drivers. There are some drivers that do not allow the user to change tx-vlan-offload feature of the driver. These drivers also seem to assume that any VLAN-tagged traffic they transmit will have the vlan information in the vlan_tci and not in the vlan header already in the skb. When transmitting skbs that already have tagged data with partial checksum set, the checksum doesn't appear to be updated correctly by the card thus resulting in a failure to establish TCP connections. The following is a packet trace taken on the receiver where a sender is a VM with a VLAN configued. The host VM is running on doest not have VLAN support and the outging interface on the host is tg3: 10:12:43.503055 52:54:00:ae:42:3f > 28:d2:44:7d:c2:de, ethertype 802.1Q (0x8100), length 78: vlan 100, p 0, ethertype IPv4, (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 27243, offset 0, flags [DF], proto TCP (6), length 60) 10.0.100.1.58545 > 10.0.100.10.ircu-2: Flags [S], cksum 0xdc39 (incorrect -> 0x48d9), seq 1069378582, win 29200, options [mss 1460,sackOK,TS val 4294837885 ecr 0,nop,wscale 7], length 0 10:12:44.505556 52:54:00:ae:42:3f > 28:d2:44:7d:c2:de, ethertype 802.1Q (0x8100), length 78: vlan 100, p 0, ethertype IPv4, (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 27244, offset 0, flags [DF], proto TCP (6), length 60) 10.0.100.1.58545 > 10.0.100.10.ircu-2: Flags [S], cksum 0xdc39 (incorrect -> 0x44ee), seq 1069378582, win 29200, options [mss 1460,sackOK,TS val 4294838888 ecr 0,nop,wscale 7], length 0 This connection finally times out. I've only access to the TG3 hardware in this configuration thus have only tested this with TG3 driver. There are a lot of other drivers that do not permit user changes to vlan acceleration features, and I don't know if they all suffere from a similar issue. The patch attempt to fix this another way. It moves the vlan header stipping code out of the vlan module and always builds it into the kernel network core. This way, even if vlan is not supported on a virtualizatoin host, the virtual machines running on top of such host will still work with VLANs enabled.

The most significant change for users is the first patch which makes setns drmatically faster by removing unneded rcu handling. The next chunk of changes are so that "mount -o remount,.." will not allow the user namespace root to drop flags on a mount set by the system wide root. Aks this forces read-only mounts to stay read-only, no-dev mounts to stay no-dev, no-suid mounts to stay no-suid, no-exec mounts to stay no exec and it prevents unprivileged users from messing with a mounts atime settings. I have included my test case as the last patch in this series so people performing backports can verify this change works correctly. The next change fixes a bug in NFS that was discovered while auditing nsproxy users for the first optimization. Today you can oops the kernel by reading /proc/fs/nfsfs/{servers,volumes} if you are clever with pid namespaces. I rebased and fixed the build of the !CONFIG_NFS_FS case yesterday when a build bot caught my typo. Given that no one to my knowledge bases anything on my tree fixing the typo in place seems more responsible that requiring a typo-fix to be backported as well. The last change is a small semantic cleanup introducing /proc/thread-self and pointing /proc/mounts and /proc/net at it. This prevents several kinds of problemantic corner cases. It is a user-visible change so it has a minute chance of causing regressions so the change to /proc/mounts and /proc/net are individual one line commits that can be trivially reverted. Unfortunately I lost and could not find the email of the original reporter so he is not credited. From at least one perspective this change to /proc/net is a refgression fix to allow pthread /proc/net uses that were broken by the introduction of the network namespace" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: proc: Point /proc/mounts at /proc/thread-self/mounts instead of /proc/self/mounts proc: Point /proc/net at /proc/thread-self/net instead of /proc/self/net proc: Implement /proc/thread-self to point at the directory of the current thread proc: Have net show up under /proc/<tgid>/task/<tid> NFS: Fix /proc/fs/nfsfs/servers and /proc/fs/nfsfs/volumes mnt: Add tests for unprivileged remount cases that have found to be faulty mnt: Change the default remount atime from relatime to the existing value mnt: Correct permission checks in do_remount mnt: Move the test for MNT_LOCK_READONLY from change_mount_flags into do_remount mnt: Only change user settable mount flags in remount namespaces: Use task_lock and not rcu to protect nsproxy

2014-08-06netlink: hold nl_sock_hash_lock during diag dumpThomas Graf
Although RCU protection would be possible during diag dump, doing so allows for concurrent table mutations which can render the in-table offset between individual Netlink messages invalid and thus cause legitimate sockets to be skipped in the dump. Since the diag dump is relatively low volume and consistency is more important than performance, the table mutex is held during dump.

Patch 3 instead is introducing a change in the metric computation function by changing the penalty applied at each mesh hop from 15/255 (~6%) to 30/255 (~11%).

Add SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_ACK, a request for a tstamp when the last byte in the send() call is acknowledged. It implements the feature for TCP. The timestamp is generated when the TCP socket cumulative ACK is moved beyond the tracked seqno for the first time. The feature ignores SACK and FACK, because those acknowledge the specific byte, but not necessarily the entire contents of the buffer up to that byte.
