      [IPv6]: Fix ICMPv6 redirect handling with target multicast address · bf0b48df
      Brian Haley 提交于
      When the ICMPv6 Target address is multicast, Linux processes the 
      redirect instead of dropping it.  The problem is in this code in 
      ndisc_redirect_rcv():
      
               if (ipv6_addr_equal(dest, target)) {
                       on_link = 1;
               } else if (!(ipv6_addr_type(target) & IPV6_ADDR_LINKLOCAL)) {
                       ND_PRINTK2(KERN_WARNING
                                  "ICMPv6 Redirect: target address is not 
      link-local.\n");
                       return;
               }
      
      This second check will succeed if the Target address is, for example, 
      FF02::1 because it has link-local scope.  Instead, it should be checking 
      if it's a unicast link-local address, as stated in RFC 2461/4861 Section 
      8.1:
      
             - The ICMP Target Address is either a link-local address (when
               redirected to a router) or the same as the ICMP Destination
               Address (when redirected to the on-link destination).
      
      I know this doesn't explicitly say unicast link-local address, but it's 
      implied.
      
      This bug is preventing Linux kernels from achieving IPv6 Logo Phase II 
      certification because of a recent error that was found in the TAHI test 
      suite - Neighbor Disovery suite test 206 (v6LC.2.3.6_G) had the 
      multicast address in the Destination field instead of Target field, so 
      we were passing the test.  This won't be the case anymore.
      
      The patch below fixes this problem, and also fixes ndisc_send_redirect() 
      to not send an invalid redirect with a multicast address in the Target 
      field.  I re-ran the TAHI Neighbor Discovery section to make sure Linux 
      passes all 245 tests now.

      [TCP]: Fix fastpath_cnt_hint when GSO skb is partially ACKed · 48611c47
      Ilpo Järvinen 提交于
      When only GSO skb was partially ACKed, no hints are reset,
      therefore fastpath_cnt_hint must be tweaked too or else it can
      corrupt fackets_out. The corruption to occur, one must have
      non-trivial ACK/SACK sequence, so this bug is not very often
      that harmful. There's a fackets_out state reset in TCP because
      fackets_out is known to be inaccurate and that fixes the issue
      eventually anyway.
      
      In case there was also at least one skb that got fully ACKed,
      the fastpath_skb_hint is set to NULL which causes a recount for
      fastpath_cnt_hint (the old value won't be accessed anymore),
      thus it can safely be decremented without additional checking.

      [SFQ]: Remove artificial limitation for queue limit. · 32740ddc
      Alexey Kuznetsov 提交于
      This is followup to Patrick's patch. A little optimization to enqueue
      routine allows to remove artificial limitation on queue length.
      
      Plus, testing showed that hash function used by SFQ is too bad or even worse.
      It does not even sweep the whole range of hash values.
      Switched to Jenkins' hash.

      [TCP]: Fix MD5 signature handling on big-endian. · f8ab18d2
      David S. Miller 提交于
      Based upon a report and initial patch by Peter Lieven.
      
      tcp4_md5sig_key and tcp6_md5sig_key need to start with
      the exact same members as tcp_md5sig_key.  Because they
      are both cast to that type by tcp_v{4,6}_md5_do_lookup().
      
      Unfortunately tcp{4,6}_md5sig_key use a u16 for the key
      length instead of a u8, which is what tcp_md5sig_key
      uses.  This just so happens to work by accident on
      little-endian, but on big-endian it doesn't.
      
      Instead of casting, just place tcp_md5sig_key as the first member of
      the address-family specific structures, adjust the access sites, and
      kill off the ugly casts.

      [NET]: Zero length write() on socket should not simply return 0. · e79ad711
      David S. Miller 提交于
      This fixes kernel bugzilla #5731
      
      It should generate an empty packet for datagram protocols when the
      socket is connected, for one.
      
      The check is doubly-wrong because all that a write() can be is a
      sendmsg() call with a NULL msg_control and a single entry iovec.  No
      special semantics should be assigned to it, therefore the zero length
      check should be removed entirely.
      
      This matches the behavior of BSD and several other systems.
      
      Alan Cox notes that SuSv3 says the behavior of a zero length write on
      non-files is "unspecified", but that's kind of useless since BSD has
      defined this behavior for a quarter century and BSD is essentially
      what application folks code to.
      
      Based upon a patch from Stephen Hemminger.
