| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Like with IPv4, TProxy needs IPv6 defragmentation but does not require connection tracking. Since defragmentation was coupled with conntrack, I split off the two, creating an nf_defrag_ipv6 module, similar to the already existing nf_defrag_ipv4.

| * tproxy: fix hash locking issue when using port redirection in ↵Balazs Scheidler2010-10-211-4/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | __inet_inherit_port() When __inet_inherit_port() is called on a tproxy connection the wrong locks are held for the inet_bind_bucket it is added to. __inet_inherit_port() made an implicit assumption that the listener's port number (and thus its bind bucket). Unfortunately, if you're using the TPROXY target to redirect skbs to a transparent proxy that assumption is not true anymore and things break. This patch adds code to __inet_inherit_port() so that it can handle this case by looking up or creating a new bind bucket for the child socket and updates callers of __inet_inherit_port() to gracefully handle __inet_inherit_port() failing. Reported by and original patch from Stephen Buck <stephen.buck@exinda.com>. See http://marc.info/?t=128169268200001&r=1&w=2 for the original discussion.

| * netfilter: ipt_LOG: add bufferisation to call printk() onceEric Dumazet2010-10-041-78/+79
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ipt_LOG & ip6t_LOG use lot of calls to printk() and use a lock in a hope several cpus wont mix their output in syslog. printk() being very expensive [1], its better to call it once, on a prebuilt and complete line. Also, with mixed IPv4 and IPv6 trafic, separate IPv4/IPv6 locks dont avoid garbage. I used an allocation of a 1024 bytes structure, sort of seq_printf() but with a fixed size limit. Use a static buffer if dynamic allocation failed. Emit a once time alert if buffer size happens to be too short. [1]: printk() has various features like printk_delay()...

Next patches will convert hash_buckets[] and "struct neighbour" to RCU protected objects. Thanks [PATCH net-next] net neigh: RCU conversion of neigh hash table Instead of storing hash_buckets, hash_mask and hash_rnd in "struct neigh_table", a new structure is defined : struct neigh_hash_table { struct neighbour **hash_buckets; unsigned int hash_mask; __u32 hash_rnd; struct rcu_head rcu; }; And "struct neigh_table" has an RCU protected pointer to such a neigh_hash_table. This means the signature of (*hash)() function changed: We need to add a third parameter with the actual hash_rnd value, since this is not anymore a neigh_table field.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In various situations, a device provides a packet to our stack and we drop it before it enters protocol stack : - softnet backlog full (accounted in /proc/net/softnet_stat) - bad vlan tag (not accounted) - unknown/unregistered protocol (not accounted) We can handle a per-device counter of such dropped frames at core level, and automatically adds it to the device provided stats (rx_dropped), so that standard tools can be used (ifconfig, ip link, cat /proc/net/dev) This is a generalization of commit 8990f468a (net: rx_dropped accounting), thus reverting it.

An example use case is to configure a machine to accept all incoming traffic on eth0, and leave the policy of whether traffic for a given IP should be delivered to the machine up to the load balancer. Can be setup as follows: ip -6 rule from all iif eth0 lookup 200 ip -6 route add local default dev lo table 200 (in this case for all IPv6 addresses) Signed-off-by: Maciej Żenczykowski <maze@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Clean up a missing exit path in the ipv6 module init routines. In addrconf_init we call ipv6_addr_label_init which calls register_pernet_subsys for the ipv6_addr_label_ops structure. But if module loading fails, or if the ipv6 module is removed, there is no corresponding unregister_pernet_subsys call, which leaves a now-bogus address on the pernet_list, leading to oopses in subsequent registrations. This patch cleans up both the failed load path and the unload path. Tested by myself with good results.

Then if we hit a slow_path condition, we must undo this or risk uncharging frags->truesize twice, and in the end, having negative socket sk_wmem_alloc counter, or even freeing socket sooner than expected. Many thanks to Nick Bowler, who provided a very clean bug report and test program. Thanks to Jarek for reviewing my first patch and providing a V2 While Nick bisection pointed to commit 2b85a34e911 (net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx), underlying bug is older (2.6.12-rc5) A side effect is to extend work done in commit b2722b1c3a893e (ip_fragment: also adjust skb->truesize for packets not owned by a socket) to ipv6 as well.

| * | xfrm: Allow different selector family in temporary stateThomas Egerer2010-09-201-14/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The family parameter xfrm_state_find is used to find a state matching a certain policy. This value is set to the template's family (encap_family) right before xfrm_state_find is called. The family parameter is however also used to construct a temporary state in xfrm_state_find itself which is wrong for inter-family scenarios because it produces a selector for the wrong family. Since this selector is included in the xfrm_user_acquire structure, user space programs misinterpret IPv6 addresses as IPv4 and vice versa. This patch splits up the original init_tempsel function into a part that initializes the selector respectively the props and id of the temporary state, to allow for differing ip address families whithin the state.

Problem is that following sequence : fd = socket(...) connect(fd, &remote, ...) not only selects remote end point (address and port), but also sets local address, while UDP stack stored in secondary hash table the socket while its local address was INADDR_ANY (or ipv6 equivalent) Sequence is : - autobind() : choose a random local port, insert socket in hash tables [while local address is INADDR_ANY] - connect() : set remote address and port, change local address to IP given by a route lookup. When an incoming UDP frame comes, if more than 10 sockets are found in primary hash table, we switch to secondary table, and fail to find socket because its local address changed. One solution to this problem is to rehash datagram socket if needed. We add a new rehash(struct socket *) method in "struct proto", and implement this method for UDP v4 & v6, using a common helper. This rehashing only takes care of secondary hash table, since primary hash (based on local port only) is not changed.

* | ipv6: add special mode forwarding=2 to send RS while configured as routerThomas Graf2010-09-031-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Similar to accepting router advertisement, the IPv6 stack does not send router solicitations if forwarding is enabled. This patch enables this behavior to be overruled by setting forwarding to the special value 2. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* | ipv6: add special mode accept_ra=2 to accept RA while configured as routerThomas Graf2010-09-031-4/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current IPv6 behavior is to not accept router advertisements while forwarding, i.e. configured as router. This does make sense, a router is typically not supposed to be auto configured. However there are exceptions and we should allow the current behavior to be overwritten. Therefore this patch enables the user to overrule the "if forwarding enabled then don't listen to RAs" rule by setting accept_ra to the special value of 2. An alternative would be to ignore the forwarding switch alltogether and solely accept RAs based on the value of accept_ra. However, I found that if not intended, accepting RAs as a router can lead to strange unwanted behavior therefore we it seems wise to only do so if the user explicitely asks for this behavior.

* | net: Rename skb_has_frags to skb_has_frag_listDavid S. Miller2010-08-233-3/+3
|/ | | | | | | | | | | SKBs can be "fragmented" in two ways, via a page array (called skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[]) and via a list of SKBs (called skb_shinfo(skb)->frag_list). Since skb_has_frags() tests the latter, it's name is confusing since it sounds more like it's testing the former. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | After commit 24b36f019 (netfilter: {ip,ip6,arp}_tables: dont block bottom half more than necessary), lockdep can raise a warning because we attempt to lock a spinlock with BH enabled, while the same lock is usually locked by another cpu in a softirq context.

* ipv6: remove sysctl jiffies conversion on gc_elasticity and min_adv_mssMin Zhang2010-08-141-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | sysctl output ipv6 gc_elasticity and min_adv_mss as values divided by HZ. However, they are not in unit of jiffies, since ip6_rt_min_advmss refers to packet size and ip6_rt_fc_elasticity is used as scaler as in expire>>ip6_rt_gc_elasticity, so replace the jiffies conversion handler will regular handler for them. This has impact on scripts that are currently working assuming the divide by HZ, will yield different results with this patch in place.
