netfilter: nf_conntrack_ipv6: improve fragmentation handling

2012-08-30T01:00:10Z

The IPv6 conntrack fragmentation currently has a couple of shortcomings. Fragmentes are collected in PREROUTING/OUTPUT, are defragmented, the defragmented packet is then passed to conntrack, the resulting conntrack information is attached to each original fragment and the fragments then continue their way through the stack. Helper invocation occurs in the POSTROUTING hook, at which point only the original fragments are available. The result of this is that fragmented packets are never passed to helpers. This patch improves the situation in the following way: - If a reassembled packet belongs to a connection that has a helper assigned, the reassembled packet is passed through the stack instead of the original fragments. - During defragmentation, the largest received fragment size is stored. On output, the packet is refragmented if required. If the largest received fragment size exceeds the outgoing MTU, a "packet too big" message is generated, thus behaving as if the original fragments were passed through the stack from an outside point of view. - The ipv6_helper() hook function can't receive fragments anymore for connections using a helper, so it is switched to use ipv6_skip_exthdr() instead of the netfilter specific nf_ct_ipv6_skip_exthdr() and the reassembled packets are passed to connection tracking helpers. The result of this is that we can properly track fragmented packets, but still generate ICMPv6 Packet too big messages if we would have before. This patch is also required as a precondition for IPv6 NAT, where NAT helpers might enlarge packets up to a point that they require fragmentation. In that case we can't generate Packet too big messages since the proper MTU can't be calculated in all cases (f.i. when changing textual representation of a variable amount of addresses), so the packet is transparently fragmented iff the original packet or fragments would have fit the outgoing MTU.

net: ipv6: fix TCP early demux

2012-08-06T20:33:21Z

IPv6 needs a cookie in dst_check() call. We need to add rx_dst_cookie and provide a family independent sk_rx_dst_set(sk, skb) method to properly support IPv6 TCP early demux. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv6: fix inet6_csk_xmit()

2012-07-18T15:59:58Z

We should provide to inet6_csk_route_socket a struct flowi6 pointer, so that net6_csk_xmit() works correctly instead of sending garbage. Also add some consts Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Reported-by: Yuchung Cheng Cc: Neal Cardwell Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: implement IP_RECVTOS for IP_PKTOPTIONS

2012-02-13T05:46:41Z

Currently, it is not easily possible to get TOS/DSCP value of packets from an incoming TCP stream. The mechanism is there, IP_PKTOPTIONS getsockopt with IP_RECVTOS set, the same way as incoming TTL can be queried. This is not actually implemented for TOS, though. This patch adds this functionality, both for IPv4 (IP_PKTOPTIONS) and IPv6 (IPV6_2292PKTOPTIONS). For IPv4, like in the IP_RECVTTL case, the value of the TOS field is stored from the other party's ACK. This is needed for proxies which require DSCP transparency. One such example is at http://zph.bratcheda.org/. Signed-off-by: Jiri Benc Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv6: mcast: RCU conversion

2010-11-24T19:16:42Z

ipv6_sk_mc_lock rwlock becomes a spinlock. readers (inet6_mc_check()) now takes rcu_read_lock() instead of read lock. Writers dont need to disable BH anymore. struct ipv6_mc_socklist objects are reclaimed after one RCU grace period. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
