      batman-adv: Fix symmetry check / route flapping in multi interface setups · 7caf69fb
      Linus Lüssing 提交于
      If receiving an OGM from a neighbor other than the currently selected
      and if it has the same TQ then we are supposed to switch if this
      neighbor provides a more symmetric link than the currently selected one.
      
      However this symmetry check currently is broken if the interface of the
      neighbor we received the OGM from and the one of the currently selected
      neighbor differ: We are currently trying to determine the symmetry of the
      link towards the selected router via the link we received the OGM from
      instead of just checking via the link towards the currently selected
      router.
      
      This leads to way more route switches than necessary and can lead to
      permanent route flapping in many common multi interface setups.
      
      This patch fixes this issue by using the right interface for this
      symmetry check.

      net: do not disable sg for packets requiring no checksum · c0d680e5
      Ed Cashin 提交于
      A change in a series of VLAN-related changes appears to have
      inadvertently disabled the use of the scatter gather feature of
      network cards for transmission of non-IP ethernet protocols like ATA
      over Ethernet (AoE).  Below is a reference to the commit that
      introduces a "harmonize_features" function that turns off scatter
      gather when the NIC does not support hardware checksumming for the
      ethernet protocol of an sk buff.
      
        commit f01a5236
        Author: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>
        Date:   Sun Jan 9 06:23:31 2011 +0000
      
            net offloading: Generalize netif_get_vlan_features().
      
      The can_checksum_protocol function is not equipped to consider a
      protocol that does not require checksumming.  Calling it for a
      protocol that requires no checksum is inappropriate.
      
      The patch below has harmonize_features call can_checksum_protocol when
      the protocol needs a checksum, so that the network layer is not forced
      to perform unnecessary skb linearization on the transmission of AoE
      packets.  Unnecessary linearization results in decreased performance
      and increased memory pressure, as reported here:
      
        http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg15184.html
      
      The problem has probably not been widely experienced yet, because
      only recently has the kernel.org-distributed aoe driver acquired the
      ability to use payloads of over a page in size, with the patchset
      recently included in the mm tree:
      
        https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/8/28/140
      
      The coraid.com-distributed aoe driver already could use payloads of
      greater than a page in size, but its users generally do not use the
      newest kernels.

      xfrm_user: ensure user supplied esn replay window is valid · ecd79187
      Mathias Krause 提交于
      The current code fails to ensure that the netlink message actually
      contains as many bytes as the header indicates. If a user creates a new
      state or updates an existing one but does not supply the bytes for the
      whole ESN replay window, the kernel copies random heap bytes into the
      replay bitmap, the ones happen to follow the XFRMA_REPLAY_ESN_VAL
      netlink attribute. This leads to following issues:
      
      1. The replay window has random bits set confusing the replay handling
         code later on.
      
      2. A malicious user could use this flaw to leak up to ~3.5kB of heap
         memory when she has access to the XFRM netlink interface (requires
         CAP_NET_ADMIN).
      
      Known users of the ESN replay window are strongSwan and Steffen's
      iproute2 patch (<http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/85962/>). The latter
      uses the interface with a bitmap supplied while the former does not.
      strongSwan is therefore prone to run into issue 1.
      
      To fix both issues without breaking existing userland allow using the
      XFRMA_REPLAY_ESN_VAL netlink attribute with either an empty bitmap or a
      fully specified one. For the former case we initialize the in-kernel
      bitmap with zero, for the latter we copy the user supplied bitmap. For
      state updates the full bitmap must be supplied.
      
      To prevent overflows in the bitmap length calculation the maximum size
      of bmp_len is limited to 128 by this patch -- resulting in a maximum
      replay window of 4096 packets. This should be sufficient for all real
      life scenarios (RFC 4303 recommends a default replay window size of 64).

      xfrm_user: fix info leak in copy_to_user_tmpl() · 1f86840f
      Mathias Krause 提交于
      The memory used for the template copy is a local stack variable. As
      struct xfrm_user_tmpl contains multiple holes added by the compiler for
      alignment, not initializing the memory will lead to leaking stack bytes
      to userland. Add an explicit memset(0) to avoid the info leak.

      tcp: restore rcv_wscale in a repair mode (v2) · bc26ccd8
      Andrey Vagin 提交于
      rcv_wscale is a symetric parameter with snd_wscale.
      
      Both this parameters are set on a connection handshake.
      
      Without this value a remote window size can not be interpreted correctly,
      because a value from a packet should be shifted on rcv_wscale.
      
      And one more thing is that wscale_ok should be set too.
      
      This patch doesn't break a backward compatibility.
      If someone uses it in a old scheme, a rcv window
      will be restored with the same bug (rcv_wscale = 0).
      
      v2: Save backward compatibility on big-endian system. Before
          the first two bytes were snd_wscale and the second two bytes were
          rcv_wscale. Now snd_wscale is opt_val & 0xFFFF and rcv_wscale >> 16.
          This approach is independent on byte ordering.
