in favor of their inner __ ones, which doesn't grab rtnl. As these functions need to operate on a locked socket, we can't be grabbing rtnl by then. It's too late and doing so causes reversed locking. So this patch: - move rtnl handling to callers instead while already fixing some reversed locking situations, like on vxlan and ipvs code. - renames __ ones to not have the __ mark: __ip_mc_{join,leave}_group -> ip_mc_{join,leave}_group __ipv6_sock_mc_{join,drop} -> ipv6_sock_mc_{join,drop} Signed-off-by: NMarcelo Ricardo Leitner <marcelo.leitner@gmail.com> Acked-by: NHannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@stressinduktion.org> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

There are some setsockopt operations in ipv4 and ipv6 that are grabbing rtnl after having grabbed the socket lock. Yet this makes it impossible to do operations that have to lock the socket when already within a rtnl protected scope, like ndo dev_open and dev_stop. We normally take coarse grained locks first but setsockopt inverted that. So this patch invert the lock logic for these operations and makes setsockopt grab rtnl if it will be needed prior to grabbing socket lock.

When reading from the error queue, msg_name and msg_control are only populated for some errors. A new exception for empty timestamp skbs added a false positive on icmp errors without payload. `traceroute -M udpconn` only displayed gateways that return payload with the icmp error: the embedded network headers are pulled before sock_queue_err_skb, leaving an skb with skb->len == 0 otherwise. Fix this regression by refining when msg_name and msg_control branches are taken. The solutions for the two fields are independent. msg_name only makes sense for errors that configure serr->port and serr->addr_offset. Test the first instead of skb->len. This also fixes another issue. saddr could hold the wrong data, as serr->addr_offset is not initialized in some code paths, pointing to the start of the network header. It is only valid when serr->port is set (non-zero). msg_control support differs between IPv4 and IPv6. IPv4 only honors requests for ICMP and timestamps with SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_CMSG. The skb->len test can simply be removed, because skb->dev is also tested and never true for empty skbs. IPv6 honors requests for all errors aside from local errors and timestamps on empty skbs. In both cases, make the policy more explicit by moving this logic to a new function that decides whether to process msg_control and that optionally prepares the necessary fields in skb->cb[]. After this change, the IPv4 and IPv6 paths are more similar. The last case is rxrpc. Here, simply refine to only match timestamps.

Allow reading of timestamps and cmsg at the same time on all relevant socket families. One use is to correlate timestamps with egress device, by asking for cmsg IP_PKTINFO. on AF_INET sockets, call the relevant function (ip_cmsg_recv). To avoid changing legacy expectations, only do so if the caller sets a new timestamping flag SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_CMSG. on AF_INET6 sockets, IPV6_PKTINFO and all other recv cmsg are already returned for all origins. only change is to set ifindex, which is not initialized for all error origins. In both cases, only generate the pktinfo message if an ifindex is known. This is not the case for ACK timestamps. The difference between the protocol families is probably a historical accident as a result of the different conditions for generating cmsg in the relevant ip(v6)_recv_error function: ipv4: if (serr->ee.ee_origin == SO_EE_ORIGIN_ICMP) { ipv6: if (serr->ee.ee_origin != SO_EE_ORIGIN_LOCAL) { At one time, this was the same test bar for the ICMP/ICMP6 distinction. This is no longer true. Signed-off-by: NWillem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> ---- Changes v1 -> v2 large rewrite - integrate with existing pktinfo cmsg generation code - on ipv4: only send with new flag, to maintain legacy behavior - on ipv6: send at most a single pktinfo cmsg - on ipv6: initialize fields if not yet initialized The recv cmsg interfaces are also relevant to the discussion of whether looping packet headers is problematic. For v6, cmsgs that identify many headers are already returned. This patch expands that to v4. If it sounds reasonable, I will follow with patches 1. request timestamps without payload with SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TSONLY (http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/366967/) 2. sysctl to conditionally drop all timestamps that have payload or cmsg from users without CAP_NET_RAW.

sk->sk_error_queue is dequeued in four locations. All share the exact same logic. Deduplicate. Also collapse the two critical sections for dequeue (at the top of the recv handler) and signal (at the bottom). This moves signal generation for the next packet forward, which should be harmless. It also changes the behavior if the recv handler exits early with an error. Previously, a signal for follow-up packets on the errqueue would then not be scheduled. The new behavior, to always signal, is arguably a bug fix. For rxrpc, the change causes the same function to be called repeatedly for each queued packet (because the recv handler == sk_error_report). It is likely that all packets will fail for the same reason (e.g., memory exhaustion). This code runs without sk_lock held, so it is not safe to trust that sk->sk_err is immutable inbetween releasing q->lock and the subsequent test. Introduce int err just to avoid this potential race.

IP_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE has a design error: because it does not allow the generation of fragments if the interface mtu is exceeded, it is very hard to make use of this option in already deployed name server software for which I introduced this option. This patch adds yet another new IP_MTU_DISCOVER option to not honor any path mtu information and not accepting new icmp notifications destined for the socket this option is enabled on. But we allow outgoing fragmentation in case the packet size exceeds the outgoing interface mtu. As such this new option can be used as a drop-in replacement for IP_PMTUDISC_DONT, which is currently in use by most name server software making the adoption of this option very smooth and easy. The original advantage of IP_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE is still maintained: ignoring incoming path MTU updates and not honoring discovered path MTUs in the output path.

We currently don't report IPV6_RECVPKTINFO in cmsg access ancillary data for IPv4 datagrams on IPv6 sockets. This patch splits the ip6_datagram_recv_ctl into two functions, one which handles both protocol families, AF_INET and AF_INET6, while the ip6_datagram_recv_specific_ctl only handles IPv6 cmsg data. ip6_datagram_recv_*_ctl never reported back any errors, so we can make them return void. Also provide a helper for protocols which don't offer dual personality to further use ip6_datagram_recv_ctl, which is exported to modules.

Commit bceaa902 ("inet: prevent leakage of uninitialized memory to user in recv syscalls") conditionally updated addr_len if the msg_name is written to. The recv_error and rxpmtu functions relied on the recvmsg functions to set up addr_len before. As this does not happen any more we have to pass addr_len to those functions as well and set it to the size of the corresponding sockaddr length. This broke traceroute and such.

Sockets marked with IP_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE won't do path mtu discovery, their sockets won't accept and install new path mtu information and they will always use the interface mtu for outgoing packets. It is guaranteed that the packet is not fragmented locally. But we won't set the DF-Flag on the outgoing frames. Florian Weimer had the idea to use this flag to ensure DNS servers are never generating outgoing fragments. They may well be fragmented on the path, but the server never stores or usees path mtu values, which could well be forged in an attack. (The root of the problem with path MTU discovery is that there is no reliable way to authenticate ICMP Fragmentation Needed But DF Set messages because they are sent from intermediate routers with their source addresses, and the IMCP payload will not always contain sufficient information to identify a flow.) Recent research in the DNS community showed that it is possible to implement an attack where DNS cache poisoning is feasible by spoofing fragments. This work was done by Amir Herzberg and Haya Shulman: <https://sites.google.com/site/hayashulman/files/fragmentation-poisoning.pdf> This issue was previously discussed among the DNS community, e.g. <http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/dnsext/current/msg01204.html>, without leading to fixes. This patch depends on the patch "ipv4: fix DO and PROBE pmtu mode regarding local fragmentation with UFO/CORK" for the enforcement of the non-fragmentable checks. If other users than ip_append_page/data should use this semantic too, we have to add a new flag to IPCB(skb)->flags to suppress local fragmentation and check for this in ip_finish_output.

Use inet_iif() consistently, and for TCP record the input interface of cached RX dst in inet sock. rt->rt_iif is going to be encoded differently, so that we can legitimately cache input routes in the FIB info more aggressively. When the input interface is "use SKB device index" the rt->rt_iif will be set to zero. This forces us to move the TCP RX dst cache installation into the ipv4 specific code, and as well it should since doing the route caching for ipv6 is pointless at the moment since it is not inspected in the ipv6 input paths yet. Also, remove the unlikely on dst->obsolete, all ipv4 dsts have obsolete set to a non-zero value to force invocation of the check callback. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The specific destination is the host we direct unicast replies to. Usually this is the original packet source address, but if we are responding to a multicast or broadcast packet we have to use something different. Specifically we must use the source address we would use if we were to send a packet to the unicast source of the original packet. The routing cache precomputes this value, but we want to remove that precomputation because it creates a hard dependency on the expensive rpfilter source address validation which we'd like to make cheaper. There are only three places where this matters: 1) ICMP replies. 2) pktinfo CMSG 3) IP options Now there will be no real users of rt->rt_spec_dst and we can simply remove it altogether.

Currently, it is not easily possible to get TOS/DSCP value of packets from an incoming TCP stream. The mechanism is there, IP_PKTOPTIONS getsockopt with IP_RECVTOS set, the same way as incoming TTL can be queried. This is not actually implemented for TOS, though. This patch adds this functionality, both for IPv4 (IP_PKTOPTIONS) and IPv6 (IPV6_2292PKTOPTIONS). For IPv4, like in the IP_RECVTTL case, the value of the TOS field is stored from the other party's ACK. This is needed for proxies which require DSCP transparency. One such example is at http://zph.bratcheda.org/. Signed-off-by: NJiri Benc <jbenc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The IP_UNICAST_IF feature is needed by the Wine project. This patch implements the feature by setting the outgoing interface in a similar fashion to that of IP_MULTICAST_IF. A separate option is needed to handle this feature since the existing options do not provide all of the characteristics required by IP_UNICAST_IF, a summary is provided below. SO_BINDTODEVICE: * SO_BINDTODEVICE requires administrative privileges, IP_UNICAST_IF does not. From reading some old mailing list articles my understanding is that SO_BINDTODEVICE requires administrative privileges because it can override the administrator's routing settings. * The SO_BINDTODEVICE option restricts both outbound and inbound traffic, IP_UNICAST_IF only impacts outbound traffic. IP_PKTINFO: * Since IP_PKTINFO and IP_UNICAST_IF are independent options, implementing IP_UNICAST_IF with IP_PKTINFO will likely break some applications. * Implementing IP_UNICAST_IF on top of IP_PKTINFO significantly complicates the Wine codebase and reduces the socket performance (doing this requires a lot of extra communication between the "server" and "user" layers). bind(): * bind() does not work on broadcast packets, IP_UNICAST_IF is specifically intended to work with broadcast packets. * Like SO_BINDTODEVICE, bind() restricts both outbound and inbound traffic.

[PATCH net-next] ipv4: IP_PKTINFO doesnt need dst reference When a socket uses IP_PKTINFO notifications, we currently force a dst reference for each received skb. Reader has to access dst to get needed information (rt_iif & rt_spec_dst) and must release dst reference. We also forced a dst reference if skb was put in socket backlog, even without IP_PKTINFO handling. This happens under stress/load. We can instead store the needed information in skb->cb[], so that only softirq handler really access dst, improving cache hit ratios. This removes two atomic operations per packet, and false sharing as well. On a benchmark using a mono threaded receiver (doing only recvmsg() calls), I can reach 720.000 pps instead of 570.000 pps. IP_PKTINFO is typically used by DNS servers, and any multihomed aware UDP application. Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
