The address generation mode for IPv6 link-local can only be configured by netlink messages. This patch adds the ability to change the address generation mode via sysctl. v1 -> v2 Removed the rtnl lock and switch to use RCU lock to iterate through the netdev list. v2 -> v3 Removed the addrgenmode variable from the idev structure and use the systcl storage for the flag. Simplifed the logic for sysctl handling by removing the supported for all operation. Added support for more types of tunnel interfaces for link-local address generation. Based the patches from net-next. v3 -> v4 Removed unnecessary whitespace changes. Signed-off-by: NFelix Jia <felix.jia@alliedtelesis.co.nz> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Implemented RFC7527 Enhanced DAD. IPv6 duplicate address detection can fail if there is some temporary loopback of Ethernet frames. RFC7527 solves this by including a random nonce in the NS messages used for DAD, and if an NS is received with the same nonce it is assumed to be a looped back DAD probe and is ignored. RFC7527 is enabled by default. Can be disabled by setting both of conf/{all,interface}/enhanced_dad to zero.

The IPv6 temporary address generation uses a variable called DESYNC_FACTOR to prevent hosts updating the addresses at the same time. Quoting RFC 4941: ... The value DESYNC_FACTOR is a random value (different for each client) that ensures that clients don't synchronize with each other and generate new addresses at exactly the same time ... DESYNC_FACTOR is defined as: DESYNC_FACTOR -- A random value within the range 0 - MAX_DESYNC_FACTOR. It is computed once at system start (rather than each time it is used) and must never be greater than (TEMP_VALID_LIFETIME - REGEN_ADVANCE). First, I believe the RFC has a typo in it and meant to say: "and must never be greater than (TEMP_PREFERRED_LIFETIME - REGEN_ADVANCE)" The reason is that at various places in the RFC, DESYNC_FACTOR is used in a calculation like (TEMP_PREFERRED_LIFETIME - DESYNC_FACTOR) or (TEMP_PREFERRED_LIFETIME - REGEN_ADVANCE - DESYNC_FACTOR). It needs to be smaller than (TEMP_PREFERRED_LIFETIME - REGEN_ADVANCE) for the result of these calculations to be larger than zero. It's never used in a calculation together with TEMP_VALID_LIFETIME. I already submitted an errata to the rfc-editor: https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?rfc=4941 The Linux implementation of DESYNC_FACTOR is very wrong: max_desync_factor is used in places DESYNC_FACTOR should be used. max_desync_factor is initialized to the RFC-recommended value for MAX_DESYNC_FACTOR (600) but the whole point is to get a _random_ value. And nothing ensures that the value used is not greater than (TEMP_PREFERRED_LIFETIME - REGEN_ADVANCE), which leads to underflows. The effect can easily be observed when setting the temp_prefered_lft sysctl e.g. to 60. The preferred lifetime of the temporary addresses will be bogus. TEMP_PREFERRED_LIFETIME and REGEN_ADVANCE are not constants and can be influenced by these three sysctls: regen_max_retry, dad_transmits and temp_prefered_lft. Thus, the upper bound for desync_factor needs to be re-calculated each time a new address is generated and if desync_factor is larger than the new upper bound, a new random value needs to be re-generated. And since we already have max_desync_factor configurable per interface, we also need to calculate and store desync_factor per interface.

The randomized interface identifier (rndid) was periodically updated from the regen_timer timer. Simplify the code by updating the rndid only when needed by ipv6_try_regen_rndid(). This makes the follow-up DESYNC_FACTOR fix much simpler. Also it fixes a reference counting error in this error path, where an in6_dev_put was missing: err = addrconf_sysctl_register(ndev); if (err) { ipv6_mc_destroy_dev(ndev); - del_timer(&ndev->regen_timer); snmp6_unregister_dev(ndev); goto err_release; Signed-off-by: NJiri Bohac <jbohac@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

This patch introduces a possibility for userspace to set various (so far two) modes of generating addresses. This is useful for example for NetworkManager because it can set the mode to NONE and take care of link local addresses itself. That allow it to have the interface up, monitoring carrier but still don't have any addresses on it. One more use-case by Dan Williams: <quote> WWAN devices often have their LL address provided by the firmware of the device, which sometimes refuses to respond to incorrect LL addresses when doing DHCPv6 or IPv6 ND. The kernel cannot generate the correct LL address for two reasons: 1) WWAN pseudo-ethernet interfaces often construct a fake MAC address, or read a meaningless MAC address from the firmware. Thus the EUI64 and the IPv6LL address the kernel assigns will be wrong. The real LL address is often retrieved from the firmware with AT or proprietary commands. 2) WWAN PPP interfaces receive their LL address from IPV6CP, not from kernel assignments. Only after IPV6CP has completed do we know the LL address of the PPP interface and its peer. But the kernel has already assigned an incorrect LL address to the interface. So being able to suppress the kernel LL address generation and assign the one retrieved from the firmware is less complicated and more robust. </quote> Signed-off-by: NJiri Pirko <jiri@resnulli.us> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

addrconf_join_solict and addrconf_join_anycast may cause actions which need rtnl locked, especially on first address creation. A new DAD state is introduced which defers processing of the initial DAD processing into a workqueue. To get rtnl lock we need to push the code paths which depend on those calls up to workqueues, specifically addrconf_verify and the DAD processing. (v2) addrconf_dad_failure needs to be queued up to the workqueue, too. This patch introduces a new DAD state and stop the DAD processing in the workqueue (this is because of the possible ipv6_del_addr processing which removes the solicited multicast address from the device). addrconf_verify_lock is removed, too. After the transition it is not needed any more. As we are not processing in bottom half anymore we need to be a bit more careful about disabling bottom half out when we lock spin_locks which are also used in bh.

Additionally this code now has a race condition. Replace it with a much simpler variant, which just scans the address list when duplicate address detection completes, to check if this is the first valid link local address and send RS and MLD reports then.

i) RFC3810, 9.2. Query Interval [QI] says: The Query Interval variable denotes the interval between General Queries sent by the Querier. Default value: 125 seconds. [...] ii) RFC3810, 9.3. Query Response Interval [QRI] says: The Maximum Response Delay used to calculate the Maximum Response Code inserted into the periodic General Queries. Default value: 10000 (10 seconds) [...] The number of seconds represented by the [Query Response Interval] must be less than the [Query Interval]. iii) RFC3810, 9.12. Older Version Querier Present Timeout [OVQPT] says: The Older Version Querier Present Timeout is the time-out for transitioning a host back to MLDv2 Host Compatibility Mode. When an MLDv1 query is received, MLDv2 hosts set their Older Version Querier Present Timer to [Older Version Querier Present Timeout]. This value MUST be ([Robustness Variable] times (the [Query Interval] in the last Query received)) plus ([Query Response Interval]). Hence, on *default* the timeout results in: [RV] = 2, [QI] = 125sec, [QRI] = 10sec [OVQPT] = [RV] * [QI] + [QRI] = 260sec Having that said, we currently calculate [OVQPT] (here given as 'switchback' variable) as ... switchback = (idev->mc_qrv + 1) * max_delay RFC3810, 9.12. says "the [Query Interval] in the last Query received". In section "9.14. Configuring timers", it is said: This section is meant to provide advice to network administrators on how to tune these settings to their network. Ambitious router implementations might tune these settings dynamically based upon changing characteristics of the network. [...] iv) RFC38010, 9.14.2. Query Interval: The overall level of periodic MLD traffic is inversely proportional to the Query Interval. A longer Query Interval results in a lower overall level of MLD traffic. The value of the Query Interval MUST be equal to or greater than the Maximum Response Delay used to calculate the Maximum Response Code inserted in General Query messages. I assume that was why switchback is calculated as is (3 * max_delay), although this setting seems to be meant for routers only to configure their [QI] interval for non-default intervals. So usage here like this is clearly wrong. Concluding, the current behaviour in IPv6's multicast code is not conform to the RFC as switch back is calculated wrongly. That is, it has a too small value, so MLDv2 hosts switch back again to MLDv2 way too early, i.e. ~30secs instead of ~260secs on default. Hence, introduce necessary helper functions and fix this up properly as it should be. Introduced in 06da92283 ("[IPV6]: Add MLDv2 support.").

This patch splits the timers for duplicate address detection and router solicitations apart. The router solicitations timer goes into inet6_dev and the dad timer stays in inet6_ifaddr. The reason behind this patch is to reduce the number of unneeded router solicitations send out by the host if additional link-local addresses are created. Currently we send out RS for every link-local address on an interface. If the RS timer fires we pick a source address with ipv6_get_lladdr. This change could hurt people adding additional link-local addresses and specifying these addresses in the radvd clients section because we no longer guarantee that we use every ll address as source address in router solicitations.

This patch adds the support of peer address for IPv6. For example, it is possible to specify the remote end of a 6inY tunnel. This was already possible in IPv4: ip addr add ip1 peer ip2 dev dev1 The peer address is specified with IFA_ADDRESS and the local address with IFA_LOCAL (like explained in include/uapi/linux/if_addr.h). Note that the API is not changed, because before this patch, it was not possible to specify two different addresses in IFA_LOCAL and IFA_REMOTE. There is a small change for the dump: if the peer is different from ::, IFA_ADDRESS will contain the peer address instead of the local address.

Instead of invalidating all IPv6 addresses with global scope when one decides to use IPv6 tokens, we should only invalidate previous tokens and leave the rest intact until they expire eventually (or are intact forever). For doing this less greedy approach, we're adding a bool at the end of inet6_ifaddr structure instead, for two reasons: i) per-inet6_ifaddr flag space is already used up, making it wider might not be a good idea, since ii) also we do not necessarily need to export this information into user space.

This patch adds support for IPv6 tokenized IIDs, that allow for administrators to assign well-known host-part addresses to nodes whilst still obtaining global network prefix from Router Advertisements. It is currently in draft status. The primary target for such support is server platforms where addresses are usually manually configured, rather than using DHCPv6 or SLAAC. By using tokenised identifiers, hosts can still determine their network prefix by use of SLAAC, but more readily be automatically renumbered should their network prefix change. [...] The disadvantage with static addresses is that they are likely to require manual editing should the network prefix in use change. If instead there were a method to only manually configure the static identifier part of the IPv6 address, then the address could be automatically updated when a new prefix was introduced, as described in [RFC4192] for example. In such cases a DNS server might be configured with such a tokenised interface identifier of ::53, and SLAAC would use the token in constructing the interface address, using the advertised prefix. [...] http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-chown-6man-tokenised-ipv6-identifiers-02 The implementation is partially based on top of Mark K. Thompson's proof of concept. However, it uses the Netlink interface for configuration resp. data retrival, so that it can be easily extended in future. Successfully tested by myself.

Update the code to handle some of the differences between RFC 3041 and RFC 4941, which obsoletes it. Also a couple of janitorial fixes. - Allow router advertisements to increase the lifetime of temporary addresses. This was not allowed by RFC 3041, but is specified by RFC 4941. It is useful when RA lifetimes are lower than TEMP_{VALID,PREFERRED}_LIFETIME: in this case, the previous code would delete or deprecate addresses prematurely. - Change the default of MAX_RETRY to 3 per RFC 4941. - Add a comment to clarify that the preferred and valid lifetimes in inet6_ifaddr are relative to the timestamp. - Shorten lines to 80 characters in a couple of places.

ipv6 has per device ICMP SNMP counters, taking too much space because they use percpu storage. needed size per device is : (512+4)*sizeof(long)*number_of_possible_cpus*2 On a 32bit kernel, 16 possible cpus, this wastes more than 64kbytes of memory per ipv6 enabled network device, taken in vmalloc pool. Since ICMP messages are rare, just use shared counters (atomic_long_t) Per network space ICMP counters are still using percpu memory, we might also convert them to shared counters in a future patch.

These header files are never installed to user consumption, so any __KERNEL__ cpp checks are superfluous. Projects should also not copy these files into their userland utility sources and try to use them there. If they insist on doing so, the onus is on them to sanitize the headers as needed.

My commit 6d55cb91 (gre: fix hard header destination address checking) broke multicast. The reason is that ip_gre used to get ipgre_header() calls with zero destination if we have NOARP or multicast destination. Instead the actual target was decided at ipgre_tunnel_xmit() time based on per-protocol dissection. Instead of allowing the "abuse" of ->header() calls with invalid destination, this creates multicast mappings for ip_gre. This also fixes "ip neigh show nud noarp" to display the proper multicast mappings used by the gre device.

ipv6_sk_mc_lock rwlock becomes a spinlock. readers (inet6_mc_check()) now takes rcu_read_lock() instead of read lock. Writers dont need to disable BH anymore. struct ipv6_mc_socklist objects are reclaimed after one RCU grace period. Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

This patch replaces the boolean dead flag on inet6_ifaddr with a state enum. This allows us to roll back changes when deleting an address according to whether DAD has completed or not. This patch only adds the state field and does not change the logic. Signed-off-by: NHerbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Using hash list macros, simplifies code and helps later RCU. This patch includes some initialization that is not strictly necessary, since an empty hlist node/list is all zero; and list is in BSS and node is allocated with kzalloc.
