skb_segment fails to segment linear packets correctly because it tries to write all linear parts of the original skb into each segment. This will always panic as each segment only contains enough space for one MSS. This was not detected earlier because linear packets should be rare for GSO. In fact it still remains to be seen what exactly created the linear packets that triggered this bug. Basically the only time this should happen is if someone enables GSO emulation on an interface that does not support SG.

A recent patch fixed a problem which would occur when the refcount on an auth_domain reached zero. This problem has not been reported in practice despite existing in two major kernel releases because the refcount can never reach zero. This patch fixes the problems that stop the refcount reaching zero. 1/ We were adding to the refcount when inserting in the hash table, but only removing from the hashtable when the refcount reached zero. Obviously it never would. So don't count the implied reference of being in the hash table. 2/ There are two paths on which a socket can be destroyed. One called svcauth_unix_info_release(). The other didn't. So when the other was taken, we can lose a reference to an ip_map which in-turn holds a reference to an auth_domain So unify the exit paths into svc_sock_put. This highlights the fact that svc_delete_socket has slightly odd semantics - it does not drop a reference but probably should. Fixing this need a bit more thought and testing.

As reported by Mark Dowd <Mark_Dowd@McAfee.com>, ip6_tables is susceptible to a fragmentation attack causing false negatives on extension header matches. When extension headers occur in the non-first fragment after the fragment header (possibly with an incorrect nexthdr value in the fragment header) a rule looking for this extension header will never match. Drop fragments that are at offset 0 and don't contain the final protocol header regardless of the ruleset, since this should not happen normally. Since all extension headers are before the protocol header this makes sure an extension header is either not present or in the first fragment, where we can properly parse it.

I think I got the cause for the Oops observed in http://www.mail-archive.com/dccp@vger.kernel.org/msg00578.html The problem is always with applications listening on PF_INET6 sockets. Apart from the mentioned oops, I observed another one one, triggered at irregular intervals via timer interrupt: run_timer_softirq -> dccp_keepalive_timer -> inet_csk_reqsk_queue_prune -> reqsk_free -> dccp_v6_reqsk_destructor The latter function is the problem and is also the last function to be called in said kernel panic. In any case, there is a real problem with allocating the right request_sock which is what this patch tackles. It fixes the following problem: - application listens on PF_INET6 - DCCPv4 packet comes in, is handed over to dccp_v4_do_rcv, from there to dccp_v4_conn_request Now: socket is PF_INET6, packet is IPv4. The following code then furnishes the connection with IPv6 - request_sock operations: req = reqsk_alloc(sk->sk_prot->rsk_prot); The first problem is that all further incoming packets will get a Reset since the connection can not be looked up. The second problem is worse: --> reqsk_alloc is called instead of inet6_reqsk_alloc --> consequently inet6_rsk_offset is never set (dangling pointer) --> the request_sock_ops are nevertheless still dccp6_request_ops --> destructor is called via reqsk_free --> dccp_v6_reqsk_destructor tries to free random memory location (inet6_rsk_offset not set) --> panic I have tested this for a while, DCCP sockets are now handled correctly in all three scenarios (v4/v6 only/v4-mapped). Commiter note: I've added the dccp_request_sock_ops forward declaration to keep the tree building and to reduce the size of the patch for 2.6.19, later I'll move the functions to the top of the affected source code to match what we have in the TCP counterpart, where this problem hasn't existed in the first place, dumb me not to have done the same thing on DCCP land 8) Signed-off-by: NGerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk> Signed-off-by: NArnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@mandriva.com>

This patch is suitable for just about any 2.6 kernel. It should go in 2.6.19 and 2.6.18.2 and possible even the .17 and .16 stable series. This is a long standing bug that seems to have only recently become apparent, presumably due to increasing use of NFS over TCP - many distros seem to be making it the default. The SK_CONN bit gets set when a listening socket may be ready for an accept, just as SK_DATA is set when data may be available. It is entirely possible for svc_tcp_accept to be called with neither of these set. It doesn't happen often but there is a small race in svc_sock_enqueue as SK_CONN and SK_DATA are tested outside the spin_lock. They could be cleared immediately after the test and before the lock is gained. This normally shouldn't be a problem. The sockets are non-blocking so trying to read() or accept() when ther is nothing to do is not a problem. However: svc_tcp_recvfrom makes the decision "Should I accept() or should I read()" based on whether SK_CONN is set or not. This usually works but is not safe. The decision should be based on whether it is a TCP_LISTEN socket or a TCP_CONNECTED socket.

The 32bit compatibility layer has no CAP_NET_ADMIN check in compat_do_ipt_get_ctl, which for example allows to list the current iptables rules even without having that capability (the non-compat version requires it). Other capabilities might be required to exploit the bug (eg. CAP_NET_RAW to get the nfnetlink socket?), so a plain user can't exploit it, but a setup actually using the posix capability system might very well hit such a constellation of granted capabilities.

This patch limits the amount of time you will defer sending a TSO segment to less than two clock ticks, or the time between two acks, whichever is longer. On slow links, deferring causes significant bursts. See attached plots, which show RTT through a 1 Mbps link with a 100 ms RTT and ~100 ms queue for (a) non-TSO, (b) currnet TSO, and (c) patched TSO. This burstiness causes significant jitter, tends to overflow queues early (bad for short queues), and makes delay-based congestion control more difficult. Deferring by a couple clock ticks I believe will have a relatively small impact on performance. Signed-off-by: NJohn Heffner <jheffner@psc.edu> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
