The hci_conn objects don't have a dedicated lock themselves but rely on the caller to hold the hci_dev lock for most types of access. The hci_conn_timeout() function has so far sent certain HCI commands based on the hci_conn state which has been possible without holding the hci_dev lock. The recent changes to do LE scanning before connect attempts added even more operations to hci_conn and hci_dev from hci_conn_timeout, thereby exposing potential race conditions with the hci_dev and hci_conn states. As an example of such a race, here there's a timeout but an l2cap_sock_connect() call manages to race with the cleanup routine: [Oct21 08:14] l2cap_chan_timeout: chan ee4b12c0 state BT_CONNECT [ +0.000004] l2cap_chan_close: chan ee4b12c0 state BT_CONNECT [ +0.000002] l2cap_chan_del: chan ee4b12c0, conn f3141580, err 111, state BT_CONNECT [ +0.000002] l2cap_sock_teardown_cb: chan ee4b12c0 state BT_CONNECT [ +0.000005] l2cap_chan_put: chan ee4b12c0 orig refcnt 4 [ +0.000010] hci_conn_drop: hcon f53d56e0 orig refcnt 1 [ +0.000013] l2cap_chan_put: chan ee4b12c0 orig refcnt 3 [ +0.000063] hci_conn_timeout: hcon f53d56e0 state BT_CONNECT [ +0.000049] hci_conn_params_del: addr ee:0d:30:09:53:1f (type 1) [ +0.000002] hci_chan_list_flush: hcon f53d56e0 [ +0.000001] hci_chan_del: hci0 hcon f53d56e0 chan f4e7ccc0 [ +0.004528] l2cap_sock_create: sock e708fc00 [ +0.000023] l2cap_chan_create: chan ee4b1770 [ +0.000001] l2cap_chan_hold: chan ee4b1770 orig refcnt 1 [ +0.000002] l2cap_sock_init: sk ee4b3390 [ +0.000029] l2cap_sock_bind: sk ee4b3390 [ +0.000010] l2cap_sock_setsockopt: sk ee4b3390 [ +0.000037] l2cap_sock_connect: sk ee4b3390 [ +0.000002] l2cap_chan_connect: 00:02:72:d9:e5:8b -> ee:0d:30:09:53:1f (type 2) psm 0x00 [ +0.000002] hci_get_route: 00:02:72:d9:e5:8b -> ee:0d:30:09:53:1f [ +0.000001] hci_dev_hold: hci0 orig refcnt 8 [ +0.000003] hci_conn_hold: hcon f53d56e0 orig refcnt 0 Above the l2cap_chan_connect() shouldn't have been able to reach the hci_conn f53d56e0 anymore but since hci_conn_timeout didn't do proper locking that's not the case. The end result is a reference to hci_conn that's not in the conn_hash list, resulting in list corruption when trying to remove it later: [Oct21 08:15] l2cap_chan_timeout: chan ee4b1770 state BT_CONNECT [ +0.000004] l2cap_chan_close: chan ee4b1770 state BT_CONNECT [ +0.000003] l2cap_chan_del: chan ee4b1770, conn f3141580, err 111, state BT_CONNECT [ +0.000001] l2cap_sock_teardown_cb: chan ee4b1770 state BT_CONNECT [ +0.000005] l2cap_chan_put: chan ee4b1770 orig refcnt 4 [ +0.000002] hci_conn_drop: hcon f53d56e0 orig refcnt 1 [ +0.000015] l2cap_chan_put: chan ee4b1770 orig refcnt 3 [ +0.000038] hci_conn_timeout: hcon f53d56e0 state BT_CONNECT [ +0.000003] hci_chan_list_flush: hcon f53d56e0 [ +0.000002] hci_conn_hash_del: hci0 hcon f53d56e0 [ +0.000001] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ +0.000461] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1782 at lib/list_debug.c:56 __list_del_entry+0x3f/0x71() [ +0.000839] list_del corruption, f53d56e0->prev is LIST_POISON2 (00000200) The necessary fix is unfortunately more complicated than just adding hci_dev_lock/unlock calls to the hci_conn_timeout() call path. Particularly, the hci_conn_del() API, which expects the hci_dev lock to be held, performs a cancel_delayed_work_sync(&hcon->disc_work) which would lead to a deadlock if the hci_conn_timeout() call path tries to acquire the same lock. This patch solves the problem by deferring the cleanup work to a separate work callback. To protect against the hci_dev or hci_conn going away meanwhile temporary references are taken with the help of hci_dev_hold() and hci_conn_get().

There is a L2CAP protocol race between the local peer and the remote peer demanding disconnection of the L2CAP link. When L2CAP ERTM is used, l2cap_sock_shutdown() can be called from userland to disconnect L2CAP. However, there can be a delay introduced by waiting for ACKs. During this waiting period, the remote peer may have sent a Disconnection Request. Therefore, recheck the shutdown status of the socket after waiting for ACKs because there is no need to do further processing if the connection has gone.

This commit reorganizes the mutex lock and is now only protecting l2cap_chan_close(). This is now consistent with other places where l2cap_chan_close() is called. If a conn connection exists, call mutex_lock(&conn->chan_lock) before calling l2cap_chan_close() to ensure other L2CAP protocol operations do not interfere. Note that the conn structure has to be protected from being freed as it is possible for the connection to be disconnected whilst the locks are not held. This solution allows the mutex lock to be used even when the connection has just been disconnected. This commit also reduces the scope of chan locking. The only place where chan locking is needed is the call to l2cap_chan_close(chan, 0) which if necessary closes the channel. Therefore, move the l2cap_chan_lock(chan) and l2cap_chan_lock(chan) locking calls to around l2cap_chan_close(chan, 0). This allows __l2cap_wait_ack(sk, chan) to be called with no chan locks being held so L2CAP messaging over the ACL link can be done unimpaired.

This patch reworks the handling of compression/decompression of traffic class and flow label handling. The current method is hard to understand, also doesn't checks if we can read the buffer from skb length. I tried to put the shifting operations into static inline functions and comment each steps which I did there to make it hopefully somewhat more readable. The big mess to deal with that is the that the ipv6 header bring the order "DSCP + ECN" but iphc uses "ECN + DSCP". Additional the DCSP + ECN bits are splitted in ipv6_hdr inside the priority and flow_lbl[0] fields. I tested these compressions by using fakelb 802.15.4 driver and manipulate the tc and flow label fields manually in function "__ip6_local_out" before the skb will be send to lower layers. Then I looked up the tc and flow label fields in wireshark on a wpan and lowpan interface. Signed-off-by: NAlexander Aring <alex.aring@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NMarcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>

This patch has the main goal to delete shift operations. Instead we doing masks and equals afterwards. E.g. for the SAM evaluation we masking only the SAM value which fits in iphc1 byte, then comparing with all possible SAM values over a switch case statement. We will not shifting the SAM value to somewhat readable anymore. Additional this patch slighty change the naming style like RFC 6282, e.g. TTL to HLIM and we will drop an errno now if CID flag is set, because we don't support it.

This patch changes the lowpan_header_decompress function by removing inklayer related information from parameters. This is currently for supporting short and extended address for iphc handling in 802154. We don't support short address handling anyway right now, but there exists already code for handling short addresses in lowpan_header_decompress. The address parameters are also changed to a void pointer, so 6LoWPAN linklayer specific code can put complex structures as these parameters and cast it again inside the generic code by evaluating linklayer type before. The order is also changed by destination address at first and then source address, which is the same like all others functions where destination is always the first, memcpy, dev_hard_header, lowpan_header_compress, etc. This patch also moves the fetching of iphc values from 6LoWPAN linklayer specific code into the generic branch.

The commit 89cbb063 introduced support for deferred connection parameter removal when unpairing by removing them only once an existing connection gets disconnected. However, it failed to address the scenario when we're *not* connected and do an unpair operation. What makes things worse is that most user space BlueZ versions will first issue a disconnect request and only then unpair, meaning the buggy code will be triggered every time. This effectively causes the kernel to resume scanning and reconnect to a device for which we've removed all keys and GATT database information. This patch fixes the issue by adding the missing call to the hci_conn_params_del() function to a branch which handles the case of no existing connection.

The HIDP specs define an idle-timeout which automatically disconnects a device. This has always been implemented in the HIDP layer and forced a synchronous shutdown of the hidp-scheduler. This works just fine, but lacks a forced disconnect on the underlying l2cap channels. This has been broken since: commit 5205185d Author: David Herrmann <dh.herrmann@gmail.com> Date: Sat Apr 6 20:28:47 2013 +0200 Bluetooth: hidp: remove old session-management The old session-management always forced an l2cap error on the ctrl/intr channels when shutting down. The new session-management skips this, as we don't want to enforce channel policy on the caller. In other words, if user-space removes an HIDP device, the underlying channels (which are *owned* and *referenced* by user-space) are still left active. User-space needs to call shutdown(2) or close(2) to release them. Unfortunately, this does not work with idle-timeouts. There is no way to signal user-space that the HIDP layer has been stopped. The API simply does not support any event-passing except for poll(2). Hence, we restore old behavior and force EUNATCH on the sockets if the HIDP layer is disconnected due to idle-timeouts (behavior of explicit disconnects remains unmodified). User-space can still call getsockopt(..., SO_ERROR, ...) ..to retrieve the EUNATCH error and clear sk_err. Hence, the channels can still be re-used (which nobody does so far, though). Therefore, the API still supports the new behavior, but with this patch it's also compatible to the old implicit channel shutdown.

netlink_dump() allocates skb based on the calculated min_dump_alloc or a per socket max_recvmsg_len. min_alloc_size is maximum space required for any single netdev attributes as calculated by rtnl_calcit(). max_recvmsg_len tracks the user provided buffer to netlink_recvmsg. It is capped at 16KiB. The intention is to avoid small allocations and to minimize the number of calls required to obtain dump information for all net devices. netlink_dump packs as many small messages as could fit within an skb that was sized for the largest single netdev information. The actual space available within an skb is larger than what is requested. It could be much larger and up to near 2x with align to next power of 2 approach. Allowing netlink_dump to use all the space available within the allocated skb increases the buffer size a user has to provide to avoid truncaion (i.e. MSG_TRUNG flag set). It was observed that with many VLANs configured on at least one netdev, a larger buffer of near 64KiB was necessary to avoid "Message truncated" error in "ip link" or "bridge [-c[ompressvlans]] vlan show" when min_alloc_size was only little over 32KiB. This patch trims skb to allocated size in order to allow the user to avoid truncation with more reasonable buffer size. Signed-off-by: NRonen Arad <ronen.arad@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

A dhcp server may provide parameters to a client from a pool of IP addresses and using a shared rootfs, or provide a specific set of parameters for a specific client, usually using the MAC address to identify each client individually. The dhcp protocol also specifies a client-id field which can be used to determine the correct parameters to supply when no MAC address is available. There is currently no way to tell the kernel to supply a specific client-id, only the userspace dhcp clients support this feature, but this can not be used when the network is needed before userspace is available such as when the root filesystem is on NFS. This patch is to be able to do something like "ip=dhcp,client_id_type, client_id_value", as a kernel parameter to enable the kernel to identify itself to the server.
