From: <pageexec@freemail.hu> $subject was fixed in 2.4 already, 2.6 needs it as well. The impact of the bugs is a kernel stack overflow and privilege escalation from CAP_NET_ADMIN via the IP_VS_SO_SET_STARTDAEMON/IP_VS_SO_GET_DAEMON ioctls. People running with 'root=all caps' (i.e., most users) are not really affected (there's nothing to escalate), but SELinux and similar users should take it seriously if they grant CAP_NET_ADMIN to other users.

1) netlink_release() should only decrement the hash entry count if the socket was actually hashed. This was causing hash->entries to underflow, which resulting in all kinds of troubles. On 64-bit systems, this would cause the following conditional to erroneously trigger: err = -ENOMEM; if (BITS_PER_LONG > 32 && unlikely(hash->entries >= UINT_MAX)) goto err; 2) netlink_autobind() needs to propagate the error return from netlink_insert(). Otherwise, callers will not see the error as they should and thus try to operate on a socket with a zero pid, which is very bad. However, it should not propagate -EBUSY. If two threads race to autobind the socket, that is fine. This is consistent with the autobind behavior in other protocols. So bug #1 above, combined with this one, resulted in hangs on netlink_sendmsg() calls to the rtnetlink socket. We'd try to do the user sendmsg() with the socket's pid set to zero, later we do a socket lookup using that pid (via the value we stashed away in NETLINK_CB(skb).pid), but that won't give us the user socket, it will give us the rtnetlink socket. So when we try to wake up the receive queue, we dive back into rtnetlink_rcv() which tries to recursively take the rtnetlink semaphore. Thanks to Jakub Jelink for providing backtraces. Also, thanks to Herbert Xu for supplying debugging patches to help track this down, and also finding a mistake in an earlier version of this fix. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Remove the argument that is no longer necessary from two function calls. 5. Some whitespace cleanup 6. Clear potential race in refrigerator (provides an open window of PF_FREEZE cleared before setting PF_FROZEN, recalc_sigpending does not check PF_FROZEN). This patch does not address the problem of freeze_processes() violating the rule that a task may only modify its own flags by setting PF_FREEZE.

rpc_create_client was modified recently to do its own (synchronous) NULL ping of the server. We'd rather do that on our own, asynchronously, so that we don't have to block the nfsd thread doing the probe, and so that setclientid handling (hence, client mounts) can proceed normally whether the callback is succesful or not. (We can still function fine without the callback channel--we just won't be able to give out delegations till it's verified to work.) Signed-off-by: NJ.

Eliminate the throttling behaviour when the netif receive queue fills because it behaves badly when using high speed networks under load. The throttling cause multiple packet drops that cause TCP to go into slow start mode. The same effective patch has been part of BIC TCP and H-TCP as well as part of Web100. The existing code drops 100's of packets when the queue fills; this changes it to individual packet drop-tail. Signed-off-by: NStephen Hemmminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

H-TCP is a congestion control algorithm developed at the Hamilton Institute, by Douglas Leith and Robert Shorten. It is extending the standard Reno algorithm with mode switching is thus a relatively simple modification. H-TCP is defined in a layered manner as it is still a research platform. The basic form includes the modification of beta according to the ratio of maxRTT to min RTT and the alpha=2*factor*(1-beta) relation, where factor is dependant on the time since last congestion. The other layers improve convergence by adding appropriate factors to alpha. The following patch implements the H-TCP algorithm in it's basic form.

TCP Hybla congestion avoidance. - "In heterogeneous networks, TCP connections that incorporate a terrestrial or satellite radio link are greatly disadvantaged with respect to entirely wired connections, because of their longer round trip times (RTTs). To cope with this problem, a new TCP proposal, the TCP Hybla, is presented and discussed in the paper[1]. It stems from an analytical evaluation of the congestion window dynamics in the TCP standard versions (Tahoe, Reno, NewReno), which suggests the necessary modifications to remove the performance dependence on RTT.[...]"[1] [1]: Carlo Caini, Rosario Firrincieli, "TCP Hybla: a TCP enhancement for heterogeneous networks", International Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking Volume 22, Issue 5 , Pages 547 - 566.

This patch is a follow up to patch 1 regarding "Selective Sub Address matching with call user data". It allows use of the Fast-Select-Acceptance optional user facility for X.25. This patch just implements fast select with no restriction on response (NRR). What this means (according to ITU-T Recomendation 10/96 section 6.16) is that if in an incoming call packet, the relevant facility bits are set for fast-select-NRR, then the called DTE can issue a direct response to the incoming packet using a call-accepted packet that contains call-user-data. This patch allows such a response. The called DTE can also respond with a clear-request packet that contains call-user-data. However, this feature is currently not implemented by the patch. How is Fast Select Acceptance used? By default, the system does not allow fast select acceptance (as before). To enable a response to fast select acceptance, After a listen socket in created and bound as follows socket(AF_X25, SOCK_SEQPACKET, 0); bind(call_soc, (struct sockaddr *)&locl_addr, sizeof(locl_addr)); but before a listen system call is made, the following ioctl should be used. ioctl(call_soc,SIOCX25CALLACCPTAPPRV); Now the listen system call can be made listen(call_soc, 4); After this, an incoming-call packet will be accepted, but no call-accepted packet will be sent back until the following system call is made on the socket that accepts the call ioctl(vc_soc,SIOCX25SENDCALLACCPT); The network (or cisco xot router used for testing here) will allow the application server's call-user-data in the call-accepted packet, provided the call-request was made with Fast-select NRR.

From: Shaun Pereira <spereira@tusc.com.au> This is the first (independent of the second) patch of two that I am working on with x25 on linux (tested with xot on a cisco router). Details are as follows. Current state of module: A server using the current implementation (2.6.11.7) of the x25 module will accept a call request/ incoming call packet at the listening x.25 address, from all callers to that address, as long as NO call user data is present in the packet header. If the server needs to choose to accept a particular call request/ incoming call packet arriving at its listening x25 address, then the kernel has to allow a match of call user data present in the call request packet with its own. This is required when multiple servers listen at the same x25 address and device interface. The kernel currently matches ALL call user data, if present. Current Changes: This patch is a follow up to the patch submitted previously by Andrew Hendry, and allows the user to selectively control the number of octets of call user data in the call request packet, that the kernel will match. By default no call user data is matched, even if call user data is present. To allow call user data matching, a cudmatchlength > 0 has to be passed into the kernel after which the passed number of octets will be matched. Otherwise the kernel behavior is exactly as the original implementation. This patch also ensures that as is normally the case, no call user data will be present in the Call accepted / call connected packet sent back to the caller Future Changes on next patch: There are cases however when call user data may be present in the call accepted packet. According to the X.25 recommendation (ITU-T 10/96) section 5.2.3.2 call user data may be present in the call accepted packet provided the fast select facility is used. My next patch will include this fast select utility and the ability to send up to 128 octets call user data in the call accepted packet provided the fast select facility is used. I am currently testing this, again with xot on linux and cisco.
