[ Upstream commit e1b8d903c6c3862160d2d5036806a94786c8fc4e ] A bug report (https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=107071) noted that the follwoing ip command is failing with v4.3: $ ip route add 10.248.5.0/24 dev bond0.250 table vlan_250 src 10.248.5.154 RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument 021dd3b8a142d changed the lookup of the given preferred source address to use the table id passed in, but this assumes the local entries are in the given table which is not necessarily true for non-VRF use cases. When validating the preferred source fallback to the local table on failure.

2015-12-09ipv4: update RTNH_F_LINKDOWN flag on UP eventJulian Anastasov1-0/+7
[ Upstream commit c9b3292eeb52c6834e972eb5b8fe38914771ed12 ] When nexthop is part of multipath route we should clear the LINKDOWN flag when link goes UP or when first address is added. This is needed because we always set LINKDOWN flag when DEAD flag was set but now on UP the nexthop is not dead anymore. Examples when LINKDOWN bit can be forgotten when no NETDEV_CHANGE is delivered: - link goes down (LINKDOWN is set), then link goes UP and device shows carrier OK but LINKDOWN remains set - last address is deleted (LINKDOWN is set), then address is added and device shows carrier OK but LINKDOWN remains set Steps to reproduce: modprobe dummy ifconfig dummy0 192.168.168.1 up here add a multipath route where one nexthop is for dummy0: ip route add 1.2.3.4 nexthop dummy0 nexthop SOME_OTHER_DEVICE ifconfig dummy0 down ifconfig dummy0 up now ip route shows nexthop that is not dead. Now set the sysctl var: echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/dummy0/ignore_routes_with_linkdown now ip route will show a dead nexthop because the forgotten RTNH_F_LINKDOWN is propagated as RTNH_F_DEAD.

2015-12-09ipv4: fix to not remove local route on link downJulian Anastasov2-9/+15
[ Upstream commit 4f823defdd5b106a5e89745ee8b163c71855de1e ] When fib_netdev_event calls fib_disable_ip on NETDEV_DOWN event we should not delete the local routes if the local address is still present. The confusion comes from the fact that both fib_netdev_event and fib_inetaddr_event use the NETDEV_DOWN constant. Fix it by returning back the variable 'force'. Steps to reproduce: modprobe dummy ifconfig dummy0 192.168.168.1 up ifconfig dummy0 down ip route list table local | grep dummy | grep host local 192.168.168.1 dev dummy0 proto kernel scope host src 192.168.168.1 Fixes: 8a3d03166f19 ("net: track link-status of ipv4 nexthops") Signed-off-by: Julian Anastasov <ja@ssi.bg> Signed-off-by: David S.

2015-10-28fib_trie: leaf_walk_rcu should not compute key if key is less than pn->keyAlexander Duyck1-1/+1
We were computing the child index in cases where the key value we were looking for was actually less than the base key of the tnode. As a result we were getting incorrect index values that would cause us to skip over some children. To fix this I have added a test that will force us to use child index 0 if the key we are looking for is less than the key of the current tnode.

2015-10-23tcp: allow dctcp alpha to drop to zeroAndrew Shewmaker1-1/+1
If alpha is strictly reduced by alpha >> dctcp_shift_g and if alpha is less than 1 << dctcp_shift_g, then alpha may never reach zero. For example, given shift_g=4 and alpha=15, alpha >> dctcp_shift_g yields 0 and alpha remains 15. The effect isn't noticeable in this case below cwnd=137, but could gradually drive uncongested flows with leftover alpha down to cwnd=137. A larger dctcp_shift_g would have a greater effect. This change causes alpha=15 to drop to 0 instead of being decrementing by 1 as it would when alpha=16. However, it requires one less conditional to implement since it doesn't have to guard against subtracting 1 from 0U. A decay of 15 is not unreasonable since an equal or greater amount occurs at alpha >= 240. Signed-off-by: Andrew G.

2015-10-23openvswitch: Fix egress tunnel info.Pravin B Shelar1-9/+37
While transitioning to netdev based vport we broke OVS feature which allows user to retrieve tunnel packet egress information for lwtunnel devices. Following patch fixes it by introducing ndo operation to get the tunnel egress info. Same ndo operation can be used for lwtunnel devices and compat ovs-tnl-vport devices. So after adding such device operation we can remove similar operation from ovs-vport. Fixes: 614732eaa12d ("openvswitch: Use regular VXLAN net_device device").

From Herbert Xu. 2) Fix some header checks in _decode_session6. We skip the header informations if the data pointer points already behind the header in question for some protocols. This is because we call pskb_may_pull with a negative value converted to unsigened int from pskb_may_pull in this case. Skipping the header informations can lead to incorrect policy lookups. From Mathias Krause. 3) Allow to change the replay threshold and expiry timer of a state without having to set other attributes like replay counter and byte lifetime. Changing these other attributes may break the SA. From Michael Rossberg. 4) Fix pmtu discovery for local generated packets. We may fail dispatch to the inner address family.

Commit 044a832a777 ("xfrm: Fix local error reporting crash with interfamily tunnels") moved the setting of skb->protocol behind the last access of the inner mode family to fix an interfamily crash. Unfortunately now skb->protocol might not be set at all, so we fail dispatch to the inner address family. As a reault, the local error handler is not called and the mtu value is not reported back to userspace. We fix this by setting skb->protocol on message size errors before we call xfrm_local_error.

2015-09-25lwtunnel: remove source and destination UDP port config optionJiri Benc1-24/+0
The UDP tunnel config is asymmetric wrt. to the ports used. The source and destination ports from one direction of the tunnel are not related to the ports of the other direction. We need to be able to respond to ARP requests using the correct ports without involving routing. As the consequence, UDP ports need to be fixed property of the tunnel interface and cannot be set per route. Remove the ability to set ports per route. This is still okay to do, as no kernel has been released with these attributes yet. Note that the ability to specify source and destination ports is preserved for other users of the lwtunnel API which don't use routes for tunnel key specification (like openvswitch). If in the future we rework ARP handling to allow port specification, the attributes can be added back.

2015-09-25ipv4: send arp replies to the correct tunnelJiri Benc2-14/+53
When using ip lwtunnels, the additional data for xmit (basically, the actual tunnel to use) are carried in ip_tunnel_info either in dst->lwtstate or in metadata dst. When replying to ARP requests, we need to send the reply to the same tunnel the request came from. This means we need to construct proper metadata dst for ARP replies. We could perform another route lookup to get a dst entry with the correct lwtstate. However, this won't always ensure that the outgoing tunnel is the same as the incoming one, and it won't work anyway for IPv4 duplicate address detection. The only thing to do is to "reverse" the ip_tunnel_info. Signed-off-by: Jiri Benc <jbenc@redhat.com> Acked-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2015-09-24tcp: add proper TS val into RST packetsEric Dumazet1-0/+1

SEG.TSecr MAY be used to provide stricter <RST> acceptance checks. In 5 years, if/when all TCP stack are RFC 7323 ready, we might consider to decide to send TS val = 0, if it buys something.

2015-09-22tcp/dccp: fix timewait races in timer handlingEric Dumazet2-13/+16
When creating a timewait socket, we need to arm the timer before allowing other cpus to find it. The signal allowing cpus to find the socket is setting tw_refcnt to non zero value. As we set tw_refcnt in __inet_twsk_hashdance(), we therefore need to call inet_twsk_schedule() first. This also means we need to remove tw_refcnt changes from inet_twsk_schedule() and let the caller handle it. Note that because we use mod_timer_pinned(), we have the guarantee the timer wont expire before we set tw_refcnt as we run in BH context. To make things more readable I introduced inet_twsk_reschedule() helper. When rearming the timer, we can use mod_timer_pending() to make sure we do not rearm a canceled timer. Note: This bug can possibly trigger if packets of a flow can hit multiple cpus. This does not normally happen, unless flow steering is broken somehow. This explains this bug was spotted ~5 months after its introduction. A similar fix is needed for SYN_RECV sockets in reqsk_queue_hash_req(), but will be provided in a separate patch for proper tracking.

2015-09-21net: Fix behaviour of unreachable, blackhole and prohibit routesNikola Forró1-2/+4
Man page of ip-route(8) says following about route types: unreachable - these destinations are unreachable. Packets are dis‐ carded and the ICMP message host unreachable is generated. The local senders get an EHOSTUNREACH error. blackhole - these destinations are unreachable. Packets are dis‐ carded silently. The local senders get an EINVAL error. prohibit - these destinations are unreachable. Packets are discarded and the ICMP message communication administratively prohibited is generated. The local senders get an EACCES error. In the inet6 address family, this was correct, except the local senders got ENETUNREACH error instead of EHOSTUNREACH in case of unreachable route. In the inet address family, all three route types generated ICMP message net unreachable, and the local senders got ENETUNREACH error. In both address families all three route types now behave consistently with documentation. Signed-off-by: Nikola Forró <nforro@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2015-09-18tcp_cubic: do not set epoch_start in the futureEric Dumazet1-2/+8
Tracking idle time in bictcp_cwnd_event() is imprecise, as epoch_start is normally set at ACK processing time, not at send time. Doing a proper fix would need to add an additional state variable, and does not seem worth the trouble, given CUBIC bug has been there forever before Jana noticed it. Let's simply not set epoch_start in the future, otherwise bictcp_update() could overflow and CUBIC would again grow cwnd too fast. This was detected thanks to a packetdrill test Neal wrote that was flaky before applying this fix.

Fix by splitting the FLOWI_FLAG_VRFSRC into 2 flags -- one that triggers the vrf device cache bypass (FLOWI_FLAG_VRFSRC) and another telling the lookup to not compare nh oif (FLOWI_FLAG_SKIP_NH_OIF).

2015-09-10tcp_cubic: better follow cubic curve after idle periodEric Dumazet1-0/+16
Jana Iyengar found an interesting issue on CUBIC : The epoch is only updated/reset initially and when experiencing losses. The delta "t" of now - epoch_start can be arbitrary large after app idle as well as the bic_target. Consequentially the slope (inverse of ca->cnt) would be really large, and eventually ca->cnt would be lower-bounded in the end to 2 to have delayed-ACK slow-start behavior. This particularly shows up when slow_start_after_idle is disabled as a dangerous cwnd inflation (1.5 x RTT) after few seconds of idle time. Jana initial fix was to reset epoch_start if app limited, but Neal pointed out it would ask the CUBIC algorithm to recalculate the curve so that we again start growing steeply upward from where cwnd is now (as CUBIC does just after a loss). Ideally we'd want the cwnd growth curve to be the same shape, just shifted later in time by the amount of the idle period.

2015-09-10net: ipv6: use common fib_default_rule_prefPhil Sutter2-2/+0
This switches IPv6 policy routing to use the shared fib_default_rule_pref() function of IPv4 and DECnet. It is also used in multicast routing for IPv4 as well as IPv6. The motivation for this patch is a complaint about iproute2 behaving inconsistent between IPv4 and IPv6 when adding policy rules: Formerly, IPv6 rules were assigned a fixed priority of 0x3FFF whereas for IPv4 the assigned priority value was decreased with each rule added. Since then all users of the default_pref field have been converted to assign the generic function fib_default_rule_pref(), fib_nl_newrule() may just use it directly instead. Therefore get rid of the function pointer altogether and make fib_default_rule_pref() static, as it's not used outside fib_rules.c anymore.

2015-08-31tcp: use dctcp if enabled on the route to the initiatorDaniel Borkmann3-6/+16
Currently, the following case doesn't use DCTCP, even if it should: A responder has f.e. Cubic as system wide default, but for a specific route to the initiating host, DCTCP is being set in RTAX_CC_ALGO. The initiating host then uses DCTCP as congestion control, but since the initiator sets ECT(0), tcp_ecn_create_request() doesn't set ecn_ok, and we have to fall back to Reno after 3WHS completes. We were thinking on how to solve this in a minimal, non-intrusive way without bloating tcp_ecn_create_request() needlessly: lets cache the CA ecn option flag in RTAX_FEATURES. In other words, when ECT(0) is set on the SYN packet, set ecn_ok=1 iff route RTAX_FEATURES contains the unexposed (internal-only) DST_FEATURE_ECN_CA. This allows to only do a single metric feature lookup inside tcp_ecn_create_request(). Joint work with Florian Westphal.

Reject packets at appropriate places if they are supposed to be encapsulated into an incompatible protocol.

2015-08-29ip_tunnels: convert the mode field of ip_tunnel_info to flagsJiri Benc2-2/+2
The mode field holds a single bit of information only (whether the ip_tunnel_info struct is for rx or tx). Change the mode field to bit flags. This allows more mode flags to be added.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter updates for net-next The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS updates for your net-next tree. In sum, patches to address fallout from the previous round plus updates from the IPVS folks via Simon Horman, they are: 1) Add a new scheduler to IPVS: The weighted overflow scheduling algorithm directs network connections to the server with the highest weight that is currently available and overflows to the next when active connections exceed the node's weight. From Raducu Deaconu. 2) Fix locking ordering in IPVS, always take rtnl_lock in first place. Patch from Julian Anastasov. 3) Allow to indicate the MTU to the IPVS in-kernel state sync daemon. From Julian Anastasov. 4) Enhance multicast configuration for the IPVS state sync daemon. Also from Julian. 5) Resolve sparse warnings in the nf_dup modules. 6) Fix a linking problem when CONFIG_NF_DUP_IPV6 is not set. 7) Add ICMP codes 5 and 6 to IPv6 REJECT target, they are more informative subsets of code 1. From Andreas Herz. 8) Revert the jumpstack size calculation from mark_source_chains due to chain depth miscalculations, from Florian Westphal. 9) Calm down more sparse warning around the Netfilter tree, again from Florian Westphal. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

2015-08-28net: Add support for VRFs to inetpeer cacheDavid Ahern3-4/+9
inetpeer caches based on address only, so duplicate IP addresses within a namespace return the same cached entry. Enhance the ipv4 address key to contain both the IPv4 address and VRF device index.

2015-08-28IGMP: Inhibit reports for local multicast groupsPhilip Downey2-1/+32
The range of addresses between 224.0.0.0 and 224.0.0.255 inclusive, is reserved for the use of routing protocols and other low-level topology discovery or maintenance protocols, such as gateway discovery and group membership reporting. Multicast routers should not forward any multicast datagram with destination addresses in this range, regardless of its TTL. Currently, IGMP reports are generated for this reserved range of addresses even though a router will ignore this information since it has no purpose. However, the presence of reserved group addresses in an IGMP membership report uses up network bandwidth and can also obscure addresses of interest when inspecting membership reports using packet inspection or debug messages. Although the RFCs for the various version of IGMP (e.g.RFC 3376 for v3) do not specify that the reserved addresses be excluded from membership reports, it should do no harm in doing so. In particular there should be no adverse effect in any IGMP snooping functionality since 224.0.0.x is specifically excluded as per RFC 4541 (IGMP and MLD Snooping Switches Considerations) section 2.1.2. Data Forwarding Rules: 2) Packets with a destination IP (DIP) address in the 224.0.0.X range which are not IGMP must be forwarded on all ports. IGMP reports for local multicast groups can now be optionally inhibited by means of a system control variable (by setting the value to zero) e.g.: echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/igmp_link_local_mcast_reports To retain backwards compatibility the previous behaviour is retained by default on system boot or reverted by setting the value back to non-zero e.g.: echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/igmp_link_local_mcast_reports Signed-off-by: Philip Downey <pdowney@brocade.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
