2012-10-12tcp: resets are misroutedAlexey Kuznetsov1-1/+2
After commit e2446eaa ("tcp_v4_send_reset: binding oif to iif in no sock case").. tcp resets are always lost, when routing is asymmetric. Yes, backing out that patch will result in misrouting of resets for dead connections which used interface binding when were alive, but we actually cannot do anything here. What's died that's died and correct handling normal unbound connections is obviously a priority. Comment to comment: > This has few benefits: > 1. tcp_v6_send_reset already did that. It was done to route resets for IPv6 link local addresses. It was a mistake to do so for global addresses. The patch fixes this as well. Actually, the problem appears to be even more serious than guaranteed loss of resets. As reported by Sergey Soloviev <sol@eqv.ru>, those misrouted resets create a lot of arp traffic and huge amount of unresolved arp entires putting down to knees NAT firewalls which use asymmetric routing.

2012-10-03ipv6: don't add link local route when there is no link local addressNicolas Dichtel1-13/+2
When an address is added on loopback (ip -6 a a 2002::1/128 dev lo), a route to fe80::/64 is added in the main table: unreachable fe80::/64 dev lo proto kernel metric 256 error -101 This route does not match any prefix (no fe80:: address on lo). In fact, addrconf_dev_config() will not add link local address because this function filters interfaces by type. If the link local address is added manually, the route to the link local prefix will be automatically added by addrconf_add_linklocal(). Note also, that this route is not deleted when the address is removed. After looking at the code, it seems that addrconf_add_lroute() is redundant with addrconf_add_linklocal(), because this function will add the link local route when the link local address is configured.

2012-09-28tunnel: drop packet if ECN present with not-ECTstephen hemminger1-30/+24
Linux tunnels were written before RFC6040 and therefore never implemented the corner case of ECN getting set in the outer header and the inner header not being ready for it. Section 4.2. Default Tunnel Egress Behaviour. o If the inner ECN field is Not-ECT, the decapsulator MUST NOT propagate any other ECN codepoint onwards. This is because the inner Not-ECT marking is set by transports that rely on dropped packets as an indication of congestion and would not understand or respond to any other ECN codepoint [RFC4774]. Specifically: * If the inner ECN field is Not-ECT and the outer ECN field is CE, the decapsulator MUST drop the packet. * If the inner ECN field is Not-ECT and the outer ECN field is Not-ECT, ECT(0), or ECT(1), the decapsulator MUST forward the outgoing packet with the ECN field cleared to Not-ECT. This patch moves the ECN decap logic out of the individual tunnels into a common place. It also adds logging to allow detecting broken systems that set ECN bits incorrectly when tunneling (or an intermediate router might be changing the header). Overloads rx_frame_error to keep track of ECN related error. Thanks to Chris Wright who caught this while reviewing the new VXLAN tunnel. This code was tested by injecting faulty logic in other end GRE to send incorrectly encapsulated packets. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-09-25net: use a per task frag allocatorEric Dumazet1-40/+25
We currently use a per socket order-0 page cache for tcp_sendmsg() operations. This page is used to build fragments for skbs. Its done to increase probability of coalescing small write() into single segments in skbs still in write queue (not yet sent) But it wastes a lot of memory for applications handling many mostly idle sockets, since each socket holds one page in sk->sk_sndmsg_page Its also quite inefficient to build TSO 64KB packets, because we need about 16 pages per skb on arches where PAGE_SIZE = 4096, so we hit page allocator more than wanted. This patch adds a per task frag allocator and uses bigger pages, if available. An automatic fallback is done in case of memory pressure. (up to 32768 bytes per frag, thats order-3 pages on x86) This increases TCP stream performance by 20% on loopback device, but also benefits on other network devices, since 8x less frags are mapped on transmit and unmapped on tx completion. Alexander Duyck mentioned a probable performance win on systems with IOMMU enabled. Its possible some SG enabled hardware cant cope with bigger fragments, but their ndo_start_xmit() should already handle this, splitting a fragment in sub fragments, since some arches have PAGE_SIZE=65536 Successfully tested on various ethernet devices.

2012-09-22tcp: TCP Fast Open Server - take SYNACK RTT after completing 3WHSNeal Cardwell1-1/+1
When taking SYNACK RTT samples for servers using TCP Fast Open, fix the code to ensure that we only call tcp_valid_rtt_meas() after we receive the ACK that completes the 3-way handshake. Previously we were always taking an RTT sample in tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock(). However, for TCP Fast Open connections tcp_v4_conn_req_fastopen() calls tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock() at the time we receive the SYN. So for TFO we must wait until tcp_rcv_state_process() to take the RTT sample. To fix this, we wait until after TFO calls tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock() before we set the snt_synack timestamp, since tcp_synack_rtt_meas() already ensures that we only take a SYNACK RTT sample if snt_synack is non-zero. To be careful, we only take a snt_synack timestamp when a SYNACK transmit or retransmit succeeds. Signed-off-by: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-09-20ipv6: unify conntrack reassembly expire code with standard oneAmerigo Wang2-99/+38
Two years ago, Shan Wei tried to fix this: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/43905/ The problem is that RFC2460 requires an ICMP Time Exceeded -- Fragment Reassembly Time Exceeded message should be sent to the source of that fragment, if the defragmentation times out. " If insufficient fragments are received to complete reassembly of a packet within 60 seconds of the reception of the first-arriving fragment of that packet, reassembly of that packet must be abandoned and all the fragments that have been received for that packet must be discarded. If the first fragment (i.e., the one with a Fragment Offset of zero) has been received, an ICMP Time Exceeded -- Fragment Reassembly Time Exceeded message should be sent to the source of that fragment. " As Herbert suggested, we could actually use the standard IPv6 reassembly code which follows RFC2460. With this patch applied, I can see ICMP Time Exceeded sent from the receiver when the sender sent out 3/4 fragmented IPv6 UDP packet.

2012-09-18ipv6: use net->rt_genid to check dst validityNicolas Dichtel2-26/+10
IPv6 dst should take care of rt_genid too. When a xfrm policy is inserted or deleted, all dst should be invalidated. To force the validation, dst entries should be created with ->obsolete set to DST_OBSOLETE_FORCE_CHK. This was already the case for all functions calling ip6_dst_alloc(), except for ip6_rt_copy(). As a consequence, we can remove the specific code in inet6_connection_sock. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@6wind.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Conflicts: net/netfilter/nfnetlink_log.c net/netfilter/xt_LOG.c Rather easy conflict resolution, the 'net' tree had bug fixes to make sure we checked if a socket is a time-wait one or not and elide the logging code if so. Whereas on the 'net-next' side we are calculating the UID and GID from the creds using different interfaces due to the user namespace changes from Eric Biederman. Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-09-14ipv6: Add labels for site-local and 6bone testing addresses (RFC6724)YOSHIFUJI Hideaki / 吉藤英明1-1/+13
Added labels for site-local addresses (fec0::/10) and 6bone testing addresses (3ffe::/16) in order to depreference them. Note that the RFC introduced new rows for Teredo, ULA and 6to4 addresses in the default policy table. Some of them have different labels from ours. For backward compatibility, we do not change the "default" labels. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2012-09-10netlink: Rename pid to portid to avoid confusionEric W. Biederman4-36/+36
It is a frequent mistake to confuse the netlink port identifier with a process identifier. Try to reduce this confusion by renaming fields that hold port identifiers portid instead of pid. I have carefully avoided changing the structures exported to userspace to avoid changing the userspace API. I have successfully built an allyesconfig kernel with this change. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

2012-09-07ipv6: fix handling of throw routesNicolas Dichtel1-1/+8
It's the same problem that previous fix about blackhole and prohibit routes. When adding a throw route, it was handled like a classic route. Moreover, it was only possible to add this kind of routes by specifying an interface. Before the patch: $ ip route add throw 2001::2/128 RTNETLINK answers: No such device $ ip route add throw 2001::2/128 dev eth0 $ ip -6 route | grep 2001::2 2001::2 dev eth0 metric 1024 After: $ ip route add throw 2001::2/128 $ ip -6 route | grep 2001::2 throw 2001::2 dev lo metric 1024 error -11 Reported-by: Markus Stenberg <markus.stenberg@iki.fi> Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@6wind.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
