      ipv4: reset flowi parameters on route connect · e6b45241
      Julian Anastasov 提交于
      Eric Dumazet found that commit 813b3b5d
      (ipv4: Use caller's on-stack flowi as-is in output
      route lookups.) that comes in 3.0 added a regression.
      The problem appears to be that resulting flowi4_oif is
      used incorrectly as input parameter to some routing lookups.
      The result is that when connecting to local port without
      listener if the IP address that is used is not on a loopback
      interface we incorrectly assign RTN_UNICAST to the output
      route because no route is matched by oif=lo. The RST packet
      can not be sent immediately by tcp_v4_send_reset because
      it expects RTN_LOCAL.
      
      	So, change ip_route_connect and ip_route_newports to
      update the flowi4 fields that are input parameters because
      we do not want unnecessary binding to oif.
      
      	To make it clear what are the input parameters that
      can be modified during lookup and to show which fields of
      floiw4 are reused add a new function to update the flowi4
      structure: flowi4_update_output.
      
      Thanks to Yurij M. Plotnikov for providing a bug report including a
      program to reproduce the problem.
      
      Thanks to Eric Dumazet for tracking the problem down to
      tcp_v4_send_reset and providing initial fix.

      ipv4: Sanitize and simplify ip_route_{connect,newports}() · 2d7192d6
      David S. Miller 提交于
      These functions are used together as a unit for route resolution
      during connect().  They address the chicken-and-egg problem that
      exists when ports need to be allocated during connect() processing,
      yet such port allocations require addressing information from the
      routing code.
      
      It's currently more heavy handed than it needs to be, and in
      particular we allocate and initialize a flow object twice.
      
      Let the callers provide the on-stack flow object.  That way we only
      need to initialize it once in the ip_route_connect() call.
      
      Later, if ip_route_newports() needs to do anything, it re-uses that
      flow object as-is except for the ports which it updates before the
      route re-lookup.
      
      Also, describe why this set of facilities are needed and how it works
      in a big comment.

      ipv4: fix route deletion for IPs on many subnets · e6abbaa2
      Julian Anastasov 提交于
      Alex Sidorenko reported for problems with local
      routes left after IP addresses are deleted. It happens
      when same IPs are used in more than one subnet for the
      device.
      
      	Fix fib_del_ifaddr to restrict the checks for duplicate
      local and broadcast addresses only to the IFAs that use
      our primary IFA or another primary IFA with same address.
      And we expect the prefsrc to be matched when the routes
      are deleted because it is possible they to differ only by
      prefsrc. This patch prevents local and broadcast routes
      to be leaked until their primary IP is deleted finally
      from the box.
      
      	As the secondary address promotion needs to delete
      the routes for all secondaries that used the old primary IFA,
      add option to ignore these secondaries from the checks and
      to assume they are already deleted, so that we can safely
      delete the route while these IFAs are still on the device list.

      ipv4: Rearrange how ip_route_newports() gets port keys. · dca8b089
      David S. Miller 提交于
      ip_route_newports() is the only place in the entire kernel that
      cares about the port members in the routing cache entry's lookup
      flow key.
      
      Therefore the only reason we store an entire flow inside of the
      struct rtentry is for this one special case.
      
      Rewrite ip_route_newports() such that:
      
      1) The caller passes in the original port values, so we don't need
         to use the rth->fl.fl_ip_{s,d}port values to remember them.
      
      2) The lookup flow is constructed by hand instead of being copied
         from the routing cache entry's flow.

      inet: Create a mechanism for upward inetpeer propagation into routes. · 6431cbc2
      David S. Miller 提交于
      If we didn't have a routing cache, we would not be able to properly
      propagate certain kinds of dynamic path attributes, for example
      PMTU information and redirects.
      
      The reason is that if we didn't have a routing cache, then there would
      be no way to lookup all of the active cached routes hanging off of
      sockets, tunnels, IPSEC bundles, etc.
      
      Consider the case where we created a cached route, but no inetpeer
      entry existed and also we were not asked to pre-COW the route metrics
      and therefore did not force the creation a new inetpeer entry.
      
      If we later get a PMTU message, or a redirect, and store this
      information in a new inetpeer entry, there is no way to teach that
      cached route about the newly existing inetpeer entry.
      
      The facilities implemented here handle this problem.
      
      First we create a generation ID.  When we create a cached route of any
      kind, we remember the generation ID at the time of attachment.  Any
      time we force-create an inetpeer entry in response to new path
      information, we bump that generation ID.
      
      The dst_ops->check() callback is where the knowledge of this event
      is propagated.  If the global generation ID does not equal the one
      stored in the cached route, and the cached route has not attached
      to an inetpeer yet, we look it up and attach if one is found.  Now
      that we've updated the cached route's information, we update the
      route's generation ID too.
      
      This clears the way for implementing PMTU and redirects directly in
      the inetpeer cache.  There is absolutely no need to consult cached
      route information in order to maintain this information.
      
      At this point nothing bumps the inetpeer genids, that comes in the
      later changes which handle PMTUs and redirects using inetpeers.

      net: Implement read-only protection and COW'ing of metrics. · 62fa8a84
      David S. Miller 提交于
      Routing metrics are now copy-on-write.
      
      Initially a route entry points it's metrics at a read-only location.
      If a routing table entry exists, it will point there.  Else it will
      point at the all zero metric place-holder called 'dst_default_metrics'.
      
      The writeability state of the metrics is stored in the low bits of the
      metrics pointer, we have two bits left to spare if we want to store
      more states.
      
      For the initial implementation, COW is implemented simply via kmalloc.
      However future enhancements will change this to place the writable
      metrics somewhere else, in order to increase sharing.  Very likely
      this "somewhere else" will be the inetpeer cache.
      
      Note also that this means that metrics updates may transiently fail
      if we cannot COW the metrics successfully.
      
      But even by itself, this patch should decrease memory usage and
      increase cache locality especially for routing workloads.  In those
      cases the read-only metric copies stay in place and never get written
      to.
      
      TCP workloads where metrics get updated, and those rare cases where
      PMTU triggers occur, will take a very slight performance hit.  But
      that hit will be alleviated when the long-term writable metrics
      move to a more sharable location.
      
      Since the metrics storage went from a u32 array of RTAX_MAX entries to
      what is essentially a pointer, some retooling of the dst_entry layout
      was necessary.
      
      Most importantly, we need to preserve the alignment of the reference
      count so that it doesn't share cache lines with the read-mostly state,
      as per Eric Dumazet's alignment assertion checks.
      
      The only non-trivial bit here is the move of the 'flags' member into
      the writeable cacheline.  This is OK since we are always accessing the
      flags around the same moment when we made a modification to the
      reference count.

      ipv4: Don't pre-seed hoplimit metric. · 323e126f
      David S. Miller 提交于
      Always go through a new ip4_dst_hoplimit() helper, just like ipv6.
      
      This allowed several simplifications:
      
      1) The interim dst_metric_hoplimit() can go as it's no longer
         userd.
      
      2) The sysctl_ip_default_ttl entry no longer needs to use
         ipv4_doint_and_flush, since the sysctl is not cached in
         routing cache metrics any longer.
      
      3) ipv4_doint_and_flush no longer needs to be exported and
         therefore can be marked static.
      
      When ipv4_doint_and_flush_strategy was removed some time ago,
      the external declaration in ip.h was mistakenly left around
      so kill that off too.
      
      We have to move the sysctl_ip_default_ttl declaration into
      ipv4's route cache definition header net/route.h, because
      currently net/ip.h (where the declaration lives now) has
      a back dependency on net/route.h
