* ipv6: mld: fix add_grhead skb_over_panic for devs with large MTUsDaniel Borkmann2014-11-161-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It has been reported that generating an MLD listener report on devices with large MTUs (e.g. 9000) and a high number of IPv6 addresses can trigger a skb_over_panic(): skbuff: skb_over_panic: text:ffffffff80612a5d len:3776 put:20 head:ffff88046d751000 data:ffff88046d751010 tail:0xed0 end:0xec0 dev:port1 ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at net/core/skbuff.c:100! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP Modules linked in: ixgbe(O) CPU: 3 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/3 Tainted: G O 3.14.23+ #4 [...] Call Trace: <IRQ> [<ffffffff80578226>] ? skb_put+0x3a/0x3b [<ffffffff80612a5d>] ? add_grhead+0x45/0x8e [<ffffffff80612e3a>] ? add_grec+0x394/0x3d4 [<ffffffff80613222>] ? mld_ifc_timer_expire+0x195/0x20d [<ffffffff8061308d>] ? mld_dad_timer_expire+0x45/0x45 [<ffffffff80255b5d>] ? call_timer_fn.isra.29+0x12/0x68 [<ffffffff80255d16>] ? run_timer_softirq+0x163/0x182 [<ffffffff80250e6f>] ? __do_softirq+0xe0/0x21d [<ffffffff8025112b>] ? irq_exit+0x4e/0xd3 [<ffffffff802214bb>] ? smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x3b/0x46 [<ffffffff8063f10a>] ? apic_timer_interrupt+0x6a/0x70 mld_newpack() skb allocations are usually requested with dev->mtu in size, since commit 72e09ad107e7 ("ipv6: avoid high order allocations") we have changed the limit in order to be less likely to fail. However, in MLD/IGMP code, we have some rather ugly AVAILABLE(skb) macros, which determine if we may end up doing an skb_put() for adding another record. To avoid possible fragmentation, we check the skb's tailroom as skb->dev->mtu - skb->len, which is a wrong assumption as the actual max allocation size can be much smaller. The IGMP case doesn't have this issue as commit 57e1ab6eaddc ("igmp: refine skb allocations") stores the allocation size in the cb[]. Set a reserved_tailroom to make it fit into the MTU and use skb_availroom() helper instead. This also allows to get rid of igmp_skb_size().

From Dan Carpenter. 3) Fix handling og skb->sk which may cause incorrect handling of connections from a local process. Via Simon Horman, patch from Calvin Owens. 4) Fix wrong netns in nft_compat when setting target and match params structure. 5) Relax chain type validation in nft_compat that was recently included, this broke the matches that need to be run from the route chain type. Now iptables-test.py automated regression tests report success again and we avoid the only possible problematic case, which is the use of nat targets out of nat chain type. 6) Use match->table to validate the tablename, instead of the match->name. Again patch for nft_compat. 7) Restore the synchronous release of objects from the commit and abort path in nf_tables. This is causing two major problems: splats when using nft_compat, given that matches and targets may sleep and call_rcu is invoked from softirq context. Moreover Patrick reported possible event notification reordering when rules refer to anonymous sets. 8) Fix race condition in between packets that are being confirmed by conntrack and the ctnetlink flush operation. This happens since the removal of the central spinlock. Thanks to Jesper D. Brouer to looking into this. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The patches are: 1) Fix a null-pointer dereference that may occur when logging errors. This problem was introduced by 4a4739d56b0 ("ipvs: Pull out crosses_local_route_boundary logic") in v3.17-rc5. 2) Update hook mask in nft_reject_bridge so we can also filter out packets from there. This fixes 36d2af5 ("netfilter: nf_tables: allow to filter from prerouting and postrouting"), which needs this chunk to work. 3) Two patches to refactor common code to forge the IPv4 and IPv6 reject packets from the bridge. These are required by the nf_tables reject bridge fix. 4) Fix nft_reject_bridge by avoiding the use of the IP stack to reject packets from the bridge. The idea is to forge the reject packets and inject them to the original port via br_deliver() which is now exported for that purpose. 5) Restrict nft_reject_bridge to bridge prerouting and input hooks. the original skbuff may cloned after prerouting when the bridge stack needs to flood it to several bridge ports, it is too late to reject the traffic. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

* | net: fix saving TX flow hash in sock for outgoing connectionsSathya Perla2014-10-221-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The commit "net: Save TX flow hash in sock and set in skbuf on xmit" introduced the inet_set_txhash() and ip6_set_txhash() routines to calculate and record flow hash(sk_txhash) in the socket structure. sk_txhash is used to set skb->hash which is used to spread flows across multiple TXQs. But, the above routines are invoked before the source port of the connection is created. Because of this all outgoing connections that just differ in the source port get hashed into the same TXQ. This patch fixes this problem for IPv4/6 by invoking the the above routines after the source port is available for the socket.

* net: gso: use feature flag argument in all protocol gso handlersFlorian Westphal2014-10-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | skb_gso_segment() has a 'features' argument representing offload features available to the output path. A few handlers, e.g. GRE, instead re-fetch the features of skb->dev and use those instead of the provided ones when handing encapsulation/tunnels. Depending on dev->hw_enc_features of the output device skb_gso_segment() can then return NULL even when the caller has disabled all GSO feature bits, as segmentation of inner header thinks device will take care of segmentation. This e.g. affects the tbf scheduler, which will silently drop GRE-encap GSO skbs that did not fit the remaining token quota as the segmentation does not work when device supports corresponding hw offload capabilities.

| * netfilter: nf_tables: restrict nat/masq expressions to nat chain typePablo Neira Ayuso2014-10-131-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds the missing validation code to avoid the use of nat/masq from non-nat chains. The validation assumes two possible configuration scenarios: 1) Use of nat from base chain that is not of nat type. Reject this configuration from the nft_*_init() path of the expression. 2) Use of nat from non-base chain. In this case, we have to wait until the non-base chain is referenced by at least one base chain via jump/goto. This is resolved from the nft_*_validate() path which is called from nf_tables_check_loops(). The user gets an -EOPNOTSUPP in both cases. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

The distinction has been gone for many years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other operations over time. During the process, we also accumulated other inconsistent operations. This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the duplicate accessor situation. __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr(). Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr(). This converts most of the uses but not all.

This is the result of discussions back in Chicago, and the hard work of several individuals. Now, when the ->ndo_start_xmit() method of a driver sees skb->xmit_more as true, it can choose to defer the doorbell telling the driver to start processing the new TX queue entires. skb->xmit_more means that the generic networking is guaranteed to call the driver immediately with another SKB to send. There is logic added to the qdisc layer to dequeue multiple packets at a time, and the handling mis-predicted offloads in software is now done with no locks held. Finally, pktgen is extended to have a "burst" parameter that can be used to test a multi-send implementation. Several drivers have xmit_more support: i40e, igb, ixgbe, mlx4, virtio_net Adding support is almost trivial, so export more drivers to support this optimization soon. I want to thank, in no particular or implied order, Jesper Dangaard Brouer, Eric Dumazet, Alexander Duyck, Tom Herbert, Jamal Hadi Salim, John Fastabend, Florian Westphal, Daniel Borkmann, David Tat, Hannes Frederic Sowa, and Rusty Russell. 2) PTP and timestamping support in bnx2x, from Michal Kalderon. 3) Allow adjusting the rx_copybreak threshold for a driver via ethtool, and add rx_copybreak support to enic driver. From Govindarajulu Varadarajan. 4) Significant enhancements to the generic PHY layer and the bcm7xxx driver in particular (EEE support, auto power down, etc.) from Florian Fainelli. 5) Allow raw buffers to be used for flow dissection, allowing drivers to determine the optimal "linear pull" size for devices that DMA into pools of pages. The objective is to get exactly the necessary amount of headers into the linear SKB area pre-pulled, but no more. The new interface drivers use is eth_get_headlen(). From WANG Cong, with driver conversions (several had their own by-hand duplicated implementations) by Alexander Duyck and Eric Dumazet. 6) Support checksumming more smoothly and efficiently for encapsulations, and add "foo over UDP" facility. From Tom Herbert. 7) Add Broadcom SF2 switch driver to DSA layer, from Florian Fainelli. 8) eBPF now can load programs via a system call and has an extensive testsuite. Alexei Starovoitov and Daniel Borkmann. 9) Major overhaul of the packet scheduler to use RCU in several major areas such as the classifiers and rate estimators. From John Fastabend. 10) Add driver for Intel FM10000 Ethernet Switch, from Alexander Duyck. 11) Rearrange TCP_SKB_CB() to reduce cache line misses, from Eric Dumazet. 12) Add Datacenter TCP congestion control algorithm support, From Florian Westphal. 13) Reorganize sk_buff so that __copy_skb_header() is significantly faster.

Current handling of IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE is not optimal. Dropping dst in validate_xmit_skb() is certainly too late in case packet was queued by cpu X but dequeued by cpu Y The logical point to take care of drop/force is in __dev_queue_xmit() before even taking qdisc lock. As Julian Anastasov pointed out, need for skb_dst() might come from some packet schedulers or classifiers. This patch adds new helper to cleanly express needs of various drivers or qdiscs/classifiers. Drivers that need skb_dst() in their ndo_start_xmit() should call following helper in their setup instead of the prior : dev->priv_flags &= ~IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE; -> netif_keep_dst(dev); Instead of using a single bit, we use two bits, one being eventually rebuilt in bonding/team drivers. The other one, is permanent and blocks IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE being rebuilt in bonding/team. Eventually, we could add something smarter later.

We introduce four reasons to reject using ICMP that overlap in IPv4 and IPv6 from the semantic point of view. This should simplify the maintainance of dual stack rule-sets through the inet table. 2) Move nf_send_reset() functions from header files to per-family nf_reject modules, suggested by Patrick McHardy. 3) We have to use IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_BRIDGE_NETFILTER) everywhere in the code now that br_netfilter can be modularized. Convert remaining spots in the network stack code. 4) Use rcu_barrier() in the nf_tables module removal path to ensure that we don't leave object that are still pending to be released via call_rcu (that may likely result in a crash). 5) Remove incomplete arch 32/64 compat from nft_compat. The original (bad) idea was to probe the word size based on the xtables match/target info size, but this assumption is wrong when you have to dump the information back to userspace. 6) Allow to filter from prerouting and postrouting in the nf_tables bridge. In order to emulate the ebtables NAT chains (which are actually simple filter chains with no special semantics), we have support filtering from this hooks too. 7) Add explicit module dependency between xt_physdev and br_netfilter. This provides a way to detect if the user needs br_netfilter from the configuration path. This should reduce the breakage of the br_netfilter modularization. 8) Cleanup coding style in ip_vs.h, from Simon Horman. 9) Fix crash in the recently added nf_tables masq expression. We have to register/unregister the notifiers to clean up the conntrack table entries from the module init/exit path, not from the rule addition / deletion path.

This function currently assumes segmentation is transparent Ethernet bridging (i.e. VXLAN encapsulation). This patch generalizes the function to operate on either Ethertype or IP protocol. The inner_protocol field must be set to the protocol of the inner header. This can now be either an Ethertype or an IP protocol (in a union). A new flag in the skbuff indicates which type is effective. skb_set_inner_protocol and skb_set_inner_ipproto helper functions were added to set the inner_protocol. These functions are called from the point where the tunnel encapsulation is occuring. When skb_udp_tunnel_segment is called, the function to segment the inner packet is selected based on the inner IP or Ethertype. In the case of an IP protocol encapsulation, the function is derived from inet[6]_offloads. In the case of Ethertype, skb->protocol is set to the inner_protocol and skb_mac_gso_segment is called. (GRE currently does this, but it might be possible to lookup the protocol in offload_base and call the appropriate segmenation function directly).

This also resolves a compilation breakage if the masquerade target is disabled but the nf_tables masq expression is enabled. 2) ipset updates via Jozsef Kadlecsik. This includes the addition of the skbinfo extension that allows you to store packet metainformation in the elements. This can be used to fetch and restore this to the packets through the iptables SET target, patches from Anton Danilov. 3) Add the hash:mac set type to ipset, from Jozsef Kadlecsick. 4) Add simple weighted fail-over scheduler via Simon Horman. This provides a fail-over IPVS scheduler (unlike existing load balancing schedulers). Connections are directed to the appropriate server based solely on highest weight value and server availability, patch from Kenny Mathis. 5) Support IPv6 real servers in IPv4 virtual-services and vice versa. Simon Horman informs that the motivation for this is to allow more flexibility in the choice of IP version offered by both virtual-servers and real-servers as they no longer need to match: An IPv4 connection from an end-user may be forwarded to a real-server using IPv6 and vice versa. No ip_vs_sync support yet though. Patches from Alex Gartrell and Julian Anastasov. 6) Add global generation ID to the nf_tables ruleset. When dumping from several different object lists, we need a way to identify that an update has ocurred so userspace knows that it needs to refresh its lists. This also includes a new command to obtain the 32-bits generation ID. The less significant 16-bits of this ID is also exposed through res_id field in the nfnetlink header to quickly detect the interference and retry when there is no risk of ID wraparound. 7) Move br_netfilter out of the bridge core. The br_netfilter code is built in the bridge core by default. This causes problems of different kind to people that don't want this: Jesper reported performance drop due to the inconditional hook registration and I remember to have read complains on netdev from people regarding the unexpected behaviour of our bridging stack when br_netfilter is enabled (fragmentation handling, layer 3 and upper inspection). People that still need this should easily undo the damage by modprobing the new br_netfilter module. 8) Dump the set policy nf_tables that allows set parameterization. So userspace can keep user-defined preferences when saving the ruleset. From Arturo Borrero. 9) Use __seq_open_private() helper function to reduce boiler plate code in x_tables, From Rob Jones. 10) Safer default behaviour in case that you forget to load the protocol tracker. Daniel Borkmann and Florian Westphal detected that if your ruleset is stateful, you allow traffic to at least one single SCTP port and the SCTP protocol tracker is not loaded, then any SCTP traffic may be pass through unfiltered. After this patch, the connection tracking classifies SCTP/DCCP/UDPlite/GRE packets as invalid if your kernel has been compiled with support for these modules. ==================== Trivially resolved conflict in include/linux/skbuff.h, Eric moved some netfilter skbuff members around, and the netfilter tree adjusted the ifdef guards for the bridging info pointer.
