2011-09-20ipv6: fix a possible double freeRoy Li1-2/+2
When calling snmp6_alloc_dev fails, the snmp6 relevant memory are freed by snmp6_alloc_dev. Calling in6_dev_finish_destroy will free these memory twice. Double free will lead that undefined behavior occurs. Signed-off-by: Roy Li <rongqing.li@windriver.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Add IP6_TNL_F_USE_ORIG_FWMARK to ip6_tunnel, so that ip6_tnl_xmit2() makes a route lookup taking into account skb->fwmark and doesnt cache lookup result. This permits more flexibility in policies and firewall setups. To setup such a tunnel, "fwmark inherit" option should be added to "ip -f inet6 tunnel" command.

2011-09-17ipv6: don't use inetpeer to store metrics for routes.Yan, Zheng1-11/+22
Current IPv6 implementation uses inetpeer to store metrics for routes. The problem of inetpeer is that it doesn't take subnet prefix length in to consideration. If two routes have the same address but different prefix length, they share same inetpeer. So changing metrics of one route also affects the other. The fix is to allocate separate metrics storage for each route. Signed-off-by: Zheng Yan <zheng.z.yan@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-09-16ipv6: Send ICMPv6 RSes only when RAs are acceptedTore Anderson1-4/+4
This patch improves the logic determining when to send ICMPv6 Router Solicitations, so that they are 1) always sent when the kernel is accepting Router Advertisements, and 2) never sent when the kernel is not accepting RAs. In other words, the operational setting of the "accept_ra" sysctl is used. The change also makes the special "Hybrid Router" forwarding mode ("forwarding" sysctl set to 2) operate exactly the same as the standard Router mode (forwarding=1). The only difference between the two was that RSes was being sent in the Hybrid Router mode only. The sysctl documentation describing the special Hybrid Router mode has therefore been removed. Rationale for the change: Currently, the value of forwarding sysctl is the only thing determining whether or not to send RSes. If it has the value 0 or 2, they are sent, otherwise they are not. This leads to inconsistent behaviour in the following cases: * accept_ra=0, forwarding=0 * accept_ra=0, forwarding=2 * accept_ra=1, forwarding=2 * accept_ra=2, forwarding=1 In the first three cases, the kernel will send RSes, even though it will not accept any RAs received in reply. In the last case, it will not send any RSes, even though it will accept and process any RAs received. (Most routers will send unsolicited RAs periodically, so suppressing RSes in the last case will merely delay auto-configuration, not prevent it.) Also, it is my opinion that having the forwarding sysctl control RS sending behaviour (completely independent of whether RAs are being accepted or not) is simply not what most users would intuitively expect to be the case.

2011-08-30netfilter: nf_queue: reject NF_STOLEN verdicts from userspaceFlorian Westphal1-7/+4
A userspace listener may send (bogus) NF_STOLEN verdict, which causes skb leak. This problem was previously fixed via 64507fdbc29c3a622180378210ecea8659b14e40 (netfilter: nf_queue: fix NF_STOLEN skb leak) but this had to be reverted because NF_STOLEN can also be returned by a netfilter hook when iterating the rules in nf_reinject. Reject userspace NF_STOLEN verdict, as suggested by Michal Miroslaw. This is complementary to commit fad54440438a7c231a6ae347738423cbabc936d9 (netfilter: avoid double free in nf_reinject).

sit tunnels (IPv6 tunnel over IPv4) do not implement the "tos inherit" case to copy the IPv6 transport class byte from the inner packet to the IPv4 type of service byte in the outer packet. By contrast, ipip tunnels and GRE tunnels do. This patch, adapted from the similar code in net/ipv4/ipip.c and net/ipv4/ip_gre.c, implements that.

2011-08-06net: Compute protocol sequence numbers and fragment IDs using MD5.David S. Miller2-0/+2
Computers have become a lot faster since we compromised on the partial MD4 hash which we use currently for performance reasons. MD5 is a much safer choice, and is inline with both RFC1948 and other ISS generators (OpenBSD, Solaris, etc.) Furthermore, only having 24-bits of the sequence number be truly unpredictable is a very serious limitation. So the periodic regeneration and 8-bit counter have been removed. We compute and use a full 32-bit sequence number. For ipv6, DCCP was found to use a 32-bit truncated initial sequence number (it needs 43-bits) and that is fixed here as well.

Gergely Kalman reported crashes in check_peer_redir(). It appears commit f39925dbde778 (ipv4: Cache learned redirect information in inetpeer.) added a race, leading to possible NULL ptr dereference. Since we can now change dst neighbour, we should make sure a reader can safely use a neighbour. Add RCU protection to dst neighbour, and make sure check_peer_redir() can be called safely by different cpus in parallel. As neighbours are already freed after one RCU grace period, this patch should not add typical RCU penalty (cache cold effects) Many thanks to Gergely for providing a pretty report pointing to the bug.

Update the code to handle some of the differences between RFC 3041 and RFC 4941, which obsoletes it. Also a couple of janitorial fixes. - Allow router advertisements to increase the lifetime of temporary addresses. This was not allowed by RFC 3041, but is specified by RFC 4941. It is useful when RA lifetimes are lower than TEMP_{VALID,PREFERRED}_LIFETIME: in this case, the previous code would delete or deprecate addresses prematurely. - Change the default of MAX_RETRY to 3 per RFC 4941. - Add a comment to clarify that the preferred and valid lifetimes in inet6_ifaddr are relative to the timestamp. - Shorten lines to 80 characters in a couple of places.

2011-07-29netfilter: ip_queue: Fix small leak in ipq_build_packet_message()Jesper Juhl1-0/+1
ipq_build_packet_message() in net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_queue.c and net/ipv6/netfilter/ip6_queue.c contain a small potential mem leak as far as I can tell. We allocate memory for 'skb' with alloc_skb() annd then call nlh = NLMSG_PUT(skb, 0, 0, IPQM_PACKET, size - sizeof(*nlh)); NLMSG_PUT is a macro NLMSG_PUT(skb, pid, seq, type, len) \ NLMSG_NEW(skb, pid, seq, type, len, 0) that expands to NLMSG_NEW, which is also a macro which expands to: NLMSG_NEW(skb, pid, seq, type, len, flags) \ ({ if (unlikely(skb_tailroom(skb) < (int)NLMSG_SPACE(len))) \ goto nlmsg_failure; \ __nlmsg_put(skb, pid, seq, type, len, flags); }) If we take the true branch of the 'if' statement and 'goto nlmsg_failure', then we'll, at that point, return from ipq_build_packet_message() without having assigned 'skb' to anything and we'll leak the memory we allocated for it when it goes out of scope. Fix this by placing a 'kfree(skb)' at 'nlmsg_failure'. I admit that I do not know how likely this to actually happen or even if there's something that guarantees that it will never happen - I'm not that familiar with this code, but if that is so, I've not been able to spot it.

2011-07-01ipv6: Don't put artificial limit on routing table size.David S. Miller1-6/+7
IPV6, unlike IPV4, doesn't have a routing cache. Routing table entries, as well as clones made in response to route lookup requests, all live in the same table. And all of these things are together collected in the destination cache table for ipv6. This means that routing table entries count against the garbage collection limits, even though such entries cannot ever be reclaimed and are added explicitly by the administrator (rather than being created in response to lookups). Therefore it makes no sense to count ipv6 routing table entries against the GC limits. Add a DST_NOCOUNT destination cache entry flag, and skip the counting if it is set. Use this flag bit in ipv6 when adding routing table entries. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2011-06-21udp/recvmsg: Clear MSG_TRUNC flag when starting over for a new packetXufeng Zhang1-0/+3
Consider this scenario: When the size of the first received udp packet is bigger than the receive buffer, MSG_TRUNC bit is set in msg->msg_flags. However, if checksum error happens and this is a blocking socket, it will goto try_again loop to receive the next packet. But if the size of the next udp packet is smaller than receive buffer, MSG_TRUNC flag should not be set, but because MSG_TRUNC bit is not cleared in msg->msg_flags before receive the next packet, MSG_TRUNC is still set, which is wrong. Fix this problem by clearing MSG_TRUNC flag when starting over for a new packet.
