xfrm: release dst_orig in case of error in xfrm_lookup()

2015-02-12T06:10:56Z

dst_orig should be released on error. Function like __xfrm_route_forward() expects that behavior. Since a recent commit, xfrm_lookup() may also be called by xfrm_lookup_route(), which expects the opposite. Let's introduce a new flag (XFRM_LOOKUP_KEEP_DST_REF) to tell what should be done in case of error.

xfrm: Generate queueing routes only from route lookup functions

2014-09-16T08:08:49Z

Currently we genarate a queueing route if we have matching policies but can not resolve the states and the sysctl xfrm_larval_drop is disabled. Here we assume that dst_output() is called to kill the queued packets. Unfortunately this assumption is not true in all cases, so it is possible that these packets leave the system unwanted. We fix this by generating queueing routes only from the route lookup functions, here we can guarantee a call to dst_output() afterwards.

xfrm: Generate blackhole routes only from route lookup functions

Currently we genarate a blackhole route route whenever we have matching policies but can not resolve the states. Here we assume that dst_output() is called to kill the balckholed packets. Unfortunately this assumption is not true in all cases, so it is possible that these packets leave the system unwanted. We fix this by generating blackhole routes only from the route lookup functions, here we can guarantee a call to dst_output() afterwards.

ipv4: add a sock pointer to dst->output() path.

2014-04-15T17:47:15Z

In the dst->output() path for ipv4, the code assumes the skb it has to transmit is attached to an inet socket, specifically via ip_mc_output() : The sk_mc_loop() test triggers a WARN_ON() when the provider of the packet is an AF_PACKET socket. The dst->output() method gets an additional 'struct sock *sk' parameter. This needs a cascade of changes so that this parameter can be propagated from vxlan to final consumer.

ipv6: do not overwrite inetpeer metrics prematurely

2014-03-27T19:09:07Z

If an IPv6 host route with metrics exists, an attempt to add a new route for the same target with different metrics fails but rewrites the metrics anyway: 12sp0:~ # ip route add fec0::1 dev eth0 rto_min 1000 12sp0:~ # ip -6 route show fe80::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 fec0::1 dev eth0 metric 1024 rto_min lock 1s 12sp0:~ # ip route add fec0::1 dev eth0 rto_min 1500 RTNETLINK answers: File exists 12sp0:~ # ip -6 route show fe80::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 fec0::1 dev eth0 metric 1024 rto_min lock 1.5s This is caused by all IPv6 host routes using the metrics in their inetpeer (or the shared default). This also holds for the new route created in ip6_route_add() which shares the metrics with the already existing route and thus ip6_route_add() rewrites the metrics even if the new route ends up not being used at all. Another problem is that old metrics in inetpeer can reappear unexpectedly for a new route, e.g. 12sp0:~ # ip route add fec0::1 dev eth0 rto_min 1000 12sp0:~ # ip route del fec0::1 12sp0:~ # ip route add fec0::1 dev eth0 12sp0:~ # ip route change fec0::1 dev eth0 hoplimit 10 12sp0:~ # ip -6 route show fe80::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 fec0::1 dev eth0 metric 1024 hoplimit 10 rto_min lock 1s Resolve the first problem by moving the setting of metrics down into fib6_add_rt2node() to the point we are sure we are inserting the new route into the tree. Second problem is addressed by introducing new flag DST_METRICS_FORCE_OVERWRITE which is set for a new host route in ip6_route_add() and makes ipv6_cow_metrics() always overwrite the metrics in inetpeer (even if they are not "new"); it is reset after that. v5: use a flag in _metrics member rather than one in flags v4: fix a typo making a condition always true (thanks to Hannes Frederic Sowa) v3: rewritten based on David Miller's idea to move setting the metrics (and allocation in non-host case) down to the point we already know the route is to be inserted. Also rebased to net-next as it is quite late in the cycle. Signed-off-by: Michal Kubecek Acked-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

inet: remove now unused flag DST_NOPEER

2014-03-06T18:15:52Z

Commit e688a604807647 ("net: introduce DST_NOPEER dst flag") introduced DST_NOPEER because because of crashes in ipv6_select_ident called from udp6_ufo_fragment. Since commit 916e4cf46d0204 ("ipv6: reuse ip6_frag_id from ip6_ufo_append_data") we don't call ipv6_select_ident any more from ip6_ufo_append_data, thus this flag lost its purpose and can be removed.

net: Add utility functions to clear rxhash

2013-12-17T21:36:21Z

In several places 'skb->rxhash = 0' is being done to clear the rxhash value in an skb. This does not clear l4_rxhash which could still be set so that the rxhash wouldn't be recalculated on subsequent call to skb_get_rxhash. This patch adds an explict function to clear all the rxhash related information in the skb properly. skb_clear_hash_if_not_l4 clears the rxhash only if it is not marked as l4_rxhash. Fixed up places where 'skb->rxhash = 0' was being called. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

dst.h: Remove extern from function prototypes

2013-09-20T18:49:32Z

There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for function prototypes. Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern. extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.
