neigh_cleanup_and_release() is always called after marking a neighbour as dead, but it only notifies user space and not in-kernel listeners of the netevent notification chain. This can cause multiple problems. In my specific use case, it causes the listener (a switch driver capable of L3 offloads) to believe a neighbour entry is still valid, and is thus erroneously kept in the device's table. Fix that by sending a netevent after marking the neighbour as dead.

Currently loop index 'idx' is used as the index in the neigh list of interest. It's increased only when the neigh is dumped. It's not the absolute index in the list. Because there is no info to record which neigh has already be scanned by previous loop. This will cause the filtered out neighs to be scanned mulitple times. This patch make idx as the absolute index in the list, it will increase no matter whether the neigh is filtered. This will prevent the above problem. And this is in line with other dump functions. v2: - take David Ahern's advice to do simple change Signed-off-by: NZhang Shengju <zhangshengju@cmss.chinamobile.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

NUD_STALE is used when the caller(e.g. arp_process()) can't guarantee neighbour reachability. If the entry was NUD_VALID and lladdr is unchanged, the entry state should not be changed. Currently the code puts an extra "NUD_CONNECTED" condition. So if old state was NUD_DELAY or NUD_PROBE (they are NUD_VALID but not NUD_CONNECTED), the state can be changed to NUD_STALE. This may cause problem. Because NUD_STALE lladdr doesn't guarantee reachability, when we send traffic, the state will be changed to NUD_DELAY. In normal case, if we get no confirmation (by dst_confirm()), we will change the state to NUD_PROBE and send probe traffic. But now the state may be reset to NUD_STALE again(e.g. by broadcast ARP packets), so the probe traffic will not be sent. This situation may happen again and again, and packets will be sent to an non-reachable lladdr forever. The fix is to remove the "NUD_CONNECTED" condition. After that the "NEIGH_UPDATE_F_WEAK_OVERRIDE" condition (used by IPv6) in that branch will be redundant, so remove it. This change may increase probe traffic, but it's essential since NUD_STALE lladdr is unreliable. To ensure correctness, we prefer to resolve lladdr, when we can't get confirmation, even while remote packets try to set NUD_STALE state.

When the data plane is offloaded the traffic doesn't go through the networking stack. Therefore, after first resolving a neighbour the NUD state machine will transition it from REACHABLE to STALE until it's finally deleted by the garbage collector. To prevent such situations the offloading driver should notify the NUD state machine on any neighbours that were recently used. The driver's polling interval should be set so that the NUD state machine can function as if the traffic wasn't offloaded. Currently, there are no in-tree drivers that can report confirmation for a neighbour, but only 'used' indication. Therefore, the polling interval should be set according to DELAY_FIRST_PROBE_TIME, as a neighbour will transition from REACHABLE state to DELAY (instead of STALE) if "a packet was sent within the last DELAY_FIRST_PROBE_TIME seconds" (RFC 4861). Send a netevent whenever the DELAY_FIRST_PROBE_TIME changes - either via netlink or sysctl - so that offloading drivers can correctly set their polling interval.

neigh_xmit() expects to be called inside an RCU-bh read side critical section, and while one of its two current callers gets this right, the other one doesn't. More specifically, neigh_xmit() has two callers, mpls_forward() and mpls_output(), and while both callers call neigh_xmit() under rcu_read_lock(), this provides sufficient protection for neigh_xmit() only in the case of mpls_forward(), as that is always called from softirq context and therefore doesn't need explicit BH protection, while mpls_output() can be called from process context with softirqs enabled. When mpls_output() is called from process context, with softirqs enabled, we can be preempted by a softirq at any time, and RCU-bh considers the completion of a softirq as signaling the end of any pending read-side critical sections, so if we do get a softirq while we are in the part of neigh_xmit() that expects to be run inside an RCU-bh read side critical section, we can end up with an unexpected RCU grace period running right in the middle of that critical section, making things go boom. This patch fixes this impedance mismatch in the callee, by making neigh_xmit() always take rcu_read_{,un}lock_bh() around the code that expects to be treated as an RCU-bh read side critical section, as this seems a safer option than fixing it in the callers.

Add an explicit neighbour table overflow message (ratelimited) and statistic to make diagnosing neighbour table overflows tractable in the wild. Diagnosing a neighbour table overflow can be quite difficult in the wild because there is no explicit dmesg logged. Callers to neighbour code seem to use net_dbg_ratelimit when the neighbour call fails which means the "base message" is not emitted and the callback suppressed messages from the ratelimiting can end-up juxtaposed with unrelated messages. Further, a forced garbage collection will increment a stat on each call whether it was successful in freeing-up a table entry or not, so that statistic is only a hint. So, add a net_info_ratelimited message and explicit statistic to the neighbour code. Signed-off-by: NRick Jones <rick.jones2@hp.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The lockless lookups can return entry that is unlinked. Sometimes they get reference before last neigh_cleanup_and_release, sometimes they do not need reference. Later, any modification attempts may result in the following problems: 1. entry is not destroyed immediately because neigh_update can start the timer for dead entry, eg. on change to NUD_REACHABLE state. As result, entry lives for some time but is invisible and out of control. 2. __neigh_event_send can run in parallel with neigh_destroy while refcnt=0 but if timer is started and expired refcnt can reach 0 for second time leading to second neigh_destroy and possible crash. Thanks to Eric Dumazet and Ying Xue for their work and analyze on the __neigh_event_send change.

[1] When entering NUD_PROBE state via neigh_update(), perhaps received from userspace, correctly (re)initialize the probes count to zero. This is useful for forcing revalidation of a neighbor (for example if the host is attempting to do DNA [IPv4 4436, IPv6 6059]). [2] Notify listeners when a neighbor goes into NUD_PROBE state. By sending notifications on entry to NUD_PROBE state listeners get more timely warnings of imminent connectivity issues. The current notifications on entry to NUD_STALE have somewhat limited usefulness: NUD_STALE is a perfectly normal state, as is NUD_DELAY, whereas notifications on entry to NUD_FAILURE come after a neighbor reachability problem has been confirmed (typically after three probes).

net: neighbour: Add mcast_resolicit to configure the number of multicast resolicitations in PROBE state. We send unicast neighbor (ARP or NDP) solicitations ucast_probes times in PROBE state. Zhu Yanjun reported that some implementation does not reply against them and the entry will become FAILED, which is undesirable. We had been dealt with such nodes by sending multicast probes mcast_ solicit times after unicast probes in PROBE state. In 2003, I made a change not to send them to improve compatibility with IPv6 NDP. Let's introduce per-protocol per-interface sysctl knob "mcast_ reprobe" to configure the number of multicast (re)solicitation for reconfirmation in PROBE state. The default is 0, since we have been doing so for 10+ years.

While looking at the mpls code I found myself writing yet another version of neigh_lookup_noref. We currently have __ipv4_lookup_noref and __ipv6_lookup_noref. So to make my work a little easier and to make it a smidge easier to verify/maintain the mpls code in the future I stopped and wrote ___neigh_lookup_noref. Then I rewote __ipv4_lookup_noref and __ipv6_lookup_noref in terms of this new function. I tested my new version by verifying that the same code is generated in ip_finish_output2 and ip6_finish_output2 where these functions are inlined. To get to ___neigh_lookup_noref I added a new neighbour cache table function key_eq. So that the static size of the key would be available. I also added __neigh_lookup_noref for people who want to to lookup a neighbour table entry quickly but don't know which neibhgour table they are going to look up. Signed-off-by: N"Eric W.

Contrary to common expectations for an "int" return, these functions return only a positive value -- if used correctly they cannot even return 0 because the message header will necessarily be in the skb. This makes the very common pattern of if (genlmsg_end(...) < 0) { ... } be a whole bunch of dead code. Many places also simply do return nlmsg_end(...); and the caller is expected to deal with it. This also commonly (at least for me) causes errors, because it is very common to write if (my_function(...)) /* error condition */ and if my_function() does "return nlmsg_end()" this is of course wrong. Additionally, there's not a single place in the kernel that actually needs the message length returned, and if anyone needs it later then it'll be very easy to just use skb->len there. Remove this, and make the functions void. This removes a bunch of dead code as described above. The patch adds lines because I did - return nlmsg_end(...); + nlmsg_end(...); + return 0; I could have preserved all the function's return values by returning skb->len, but instead I've audited all the places calling the affected functions and found that none cared. A few places actually compared the return value with <= 0 in dump functionality, but that could just be changed to < 0 with no change in behaviour, so I opted for the more efficient version. One instance of the error I've made numerous times now is also present in net/phonet/pn_netlink.c in the route_dumpit() function - it didn't check for <0 or <=0 and thus broke out of the loop every single time. I've preserved this since it will (I think) have caused the messages to userspace to be formatted differently with just a single message for every SKB returned to userspace. It's possible that this isn't needed for the tools that actually use this, but I don't even know what they are so couldn't test that changing this behaviour would be acceptable.

由 Jean-Francois Remy 提交于
When setting base_reachable_time or base_reachable_time_ms on a specific interface through sysctl or netlink, the reachable_time value is not updated. This means that neighbour entries will continue to be updated using the old value until it is recomputed in neigh_period_work (which recomputes the value every 300*HZ). On systems with HZ equal to 1000 for instance, it means 5mins before the change is effective. This patch changes this behavior by recomputing reachable_time after each set on base_reachable_time or base_reachable_time_ms. The new value will become effective the next time the neighbour's timer is triggered. Changes are made in two places: the netlink code for set and the sysctl handling code. For sysctl, I use a proc_handler. The ipv6 network code does provide its own handler but it already refreshes reachable_time correctly so it's not an issue. Any other user of neighbour which provide its own handlers must refresh reachable_time. Signed-off-by: NJean-Francois Remy <jeff@melix.org> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Now if function rt6_select() selects a router which neighbour state is NUD_FAILED, and at the same time function rt6_probe() changes the neighbour state to NUD_PROBE, then function dst_neigh_output() can directly send packets, but actually the neighbour still is unreachable. If we set nud_state to NUD_INCOMPLETE instead NUD_PROBE, packets will not be sent out until the neihbour is reachable. In addition, because the route should be probes with a single NS, so we must set neigh->probes to neigh_max_probes(), then the neigh timer timeout and function neigh_timer_handler() will not send other NS Messages.

iproute2 arpd seems to expect this as there's code and comments to handle netlink probes with NUD_PROBE set. It is used to flush the arpd cached mappings. opennhrp instead turns off unicast probes (so it can handle all neighbour discovery). Without this change it will not see NUD_PROBE probes and cannot reconfirm the mapping. Thus currently neigh entry will just fail and can cause few packets dropped until broadcast discovery is restarted.

This patch removes the net_random and net_srandom macros and replaces them with direct calls to the prandom ones. As new commits only seem to use prandom_u32 there is no use to keep them around. This change makes it easier to grep for users of prandom_u32.

由 David S. Miller 提交于
When the vlan code detects that the real device can do TX VLAN offloads in hardware, it tries to arrange for the real device's header_ops to be invoked directly. But it does so illegally, by simply hooking the real device's header_ops up to the VLAN device. This doesn't work because we will end up invoking a set of header_ops routines which expect a device type which matches the real device, but will see a VLAN device instead. Fix this by providing a pass-thru set of header_ops which will arrange to pass the proper real device instead. To facilitate this add a dev_rebuild_header(). There are implementations which provide a ->cache and ->create but not a ->rebuild (f.e. PLIP). So we need a helper function just like dev_hard_header() to avoid crashes. Use this helper in the one existing place where the header_ops->rebuild was being invoked, the neighbour code. With lots of help from Florian Westphal. Signed-off-by: NDavid S.
