      ipv6: Avoid double dst_free · 8e3d5be7
      Martin KaFai Lau 提交于
      It is a prep work to get dst freeing from fib tree undergo
      a rcu grace period.
      
      The following is a common paradigm:
      if (ip6_del_rt(rt))
      	dst_free(rt)
      
      which means, if rt cannot be deleted from the fib tree, dst_free(rt) now.
      1. We don't know the ip6_del_rt(rt) failure is because it
         was not managed by fib tree (e.g. DST_NOCACHE) or it had already been
         removed from the fib tree.
      2. If rt had been managed by the fib tree, ip6_del_rt(rt) failure means
         dst_free(rt) has been called already.  A second
         dst_free(rt) is not always obviously safe.  The rt may have
         been destroyed already.
      3. If rt is a DST_NOCACHE, dst_free(rt) should not be called.
      4. It is a stopper to make dst freeing from fib tree undergo a
         rcu grace period.
      
      This patch is to use a DST_NOCACHE flag to indicate a rt is
      not managed by the fib tree.

      net: Optimize snmp stat aggregation by walking all the percpu data at once · a3a77372
      Raghavendra K T 提交于
      Docker container creation linearly increased from around 1.6 sec to 7.5 sec
      (at 1000 containers) and perf data showed 50% ovehead in snmp_fold_field.
      
      reason: currently __snmp6_fill_stats64 calls snmp_fold_field that walks
      through per cpu data of an item (iteratively for around 36 items).
      
      idea: This patch tries to aggregate the statistics by going through
      all the items of each cpu sequentially which is reducing cache
      misses.
      
      Docker creation got faster by more than 2x after the patch.

      net: ipv6 sysctl option to ignore routes when nexthop link is down · 35103d11
      Andy Gospodarek 提交于
      Like the ipv4 patch with a similar title, this adds a sysctl to allow
      the user to change routing behavior based on whether or not the
      interface associated with the nexthop was an up or down link.  The
      default setting preserves the current behavior, but anyone that enables
      it will notice that nexthops on down interfaces will no longer be
      selected:
      
      net.ipv6.conf.all.ignore_routes_with_linkdown = 0
      net.ipv6.conf.default.ignore_routes_with_linkdown = 0
      net.ipv6.conf.lo.ignore_routes_with_linkdown = 0
      ...
      
      When the above sysctls are set, not only will link status be reported to
      userspace, but an indication that a nexthop is dead and will not be used
      is also reported.
      
      1000::/8 via 7000::2 dev p7p1  metric 1024 dead linkdown  pref medium

      net/ipv6: add sysctl option accept_ra_min_hop_limit · 8013d1d7
      Hangbin Liu 提交于
      Commit 6fd99094 ("ipv6: Don't reduce hop limit for an interface")
      disabled accept hop limit from RA if it is smaller than the current hop
      limit for security stuff. But this behavior kind of break the RFC definition.
      
      RFC 4861, 6.3.4.  Processing Received Router Advertisements
         A Router Advertisement field (e.g., Cur Hop Limit, Reachable Time,
         and Retrans Timer) may contain a value denoting that it is
         unspecified.  In such cases, the parameter should be ignored and the
         host should continue using whatever value it is already using.
      
         If the received Cur Hop Limit value is non-zero, the host SHOULD set
         its CurHopLimit variable to the received value.
      
      So add sysctl option accept_ra_min_hop_limit to let user choose the minimum
      hop limit value they can accept from RA. And set default to 1 to meet RFC
      standards.

      ipv6: Consider RTF_CACHE when searching the fib6 tree · 1f56a01f
      Martin KaFai Lau 提交于
      It is a prep work for the later bug-fix patch which will stop /128 route
      from disappearing after pmtu update.
      
      The later bug-fix patch will allow a /128 route and its RTF_CACHE clone
      both exist at the same fib6_node.  To do this, we need to prepare the
      existing fib6 tree search to expect RTF_CACHE for /128 route.
      
      Note that the fn->leaf is sorted by rt6i_metric.  Hence,
      RTF_CACHE (if there is any) is always at the front.  This property
      leads to the following:
      
      1. When doing ip6_route_del(), it should honor the RTF_CACHE flag which
         the caller is used to ask for deleting clone or non-clone.
         The rtm_to_fib6_config() should also check the RTM_F_CLONED and
         then set RTF_CACHE accordingly so that:
         - 'ip -6 r del...' will make ip6_route_del() to delete a route
           and all its clones. Note that its clones is flushed by fib6_del()
         - 'ip -6 r flush table cache' will make ip6_route_del() to
            only delete clone(s).
      
      2. Exclude RTF_CACHE from addrconf_get_prefix_route() which
         should not configure on a cloned route.
      
      3. No change is need for rt6_device_match() since it currently could
         return a RTF_CACHE clone route, so the later bug-fix patch will not
         affect it.

      ipv6: generation of stable privacy addresses for link-local and autoconf · 622c81d5
      Hannes Frederic Sowa 提交于
      This patch implements the stable privacy address generation for
      link-local and autoconf addresses as specified in RFC7217.
      
        RID = F(Prefix, Net_Iface, Network_ID, DAD_Counter, secret_key)
      
      is the RID (random identifier). As the hash function F we chose one
      round of sha1. Prefix will be either the link-local prefix or the
      router advertised one. As Net_Iface we use the MAC address of the
      device. DAD_Counter and secret_key are implemented as specified.
      
      We don't use Network_ID, as it couples the code too closely to other
      subsystems. It is specified as optional in the RFC.
      
      As Net_Iface we only use the MAC address: we simply have no stable
      identifier in the kernel we could possibly use: because this code might
      run very early, we cannot depend on names, as they might be changed by
      user space early on during the boot process.
      
      A new address generation mode is introduced,
      IN6_ADDR_GEN_MODE_STABLE_PRIVACY. With iproute2 one can switch back to
      none or eui64 address configuration mode although the stable_secret is
      already set.
      
      We refuse writes to ipv6/conf/all/stable_secret but only allow
      ipv6/conf/default/stable_secret and the interface specific file to be
      written to. The default stable_secret is used as the parameter for the
      namespace, the interface specific can overwrite the secret, e.g. when
      switching a network configuration from one system to another while
      inheriting the secret.

      multicast: Extend ip address command to enable multicast group join/leave on · 93a714d6
      Madhu Challa 提交于
      Joining multicast group on ethernet level via "ip maddr" command would
      not work if we have an Ethernet switch that does igmp snooping since
      the switch would not replicate multicast packets on ports that did not
      have IGMP reports for the multicast addresses.
      
      Linux vxlan interfaces created via "ip link add vxlan" have the group option
      that enables then to do the required join.
      
      By extending ip address command with option "autojoin" we can get similar
      functionality for openvswitch vxlan interfaces as well as other tunneling
      mechanisms that need to receive multicast traffic. The kernel code is
      structured similar to how the vxlan driver does a group join / leave.
      
      example:
      ip address add 224.1.1.10/24 dev eth5 autojoin
      ip address del 224.1.1.10/24 dev eth5

      ipv6: addrconf: validate new MTU before applying it · 77751427
      Marcelo Leitner 提交于
      Currently we don't check if the new MTU is valid or not and this allows
      one to configure a smaller than minimum allowed by RFCs or even bigger
      than interface own MTU, which is a problem as it may lead to packet
      drops.
      
      If you have a daemon like NetworkManager running, this may be exploited
      by remote attackers by forging RA packets with an invalid MTU, possibly
      leading to a DoS. (NetworkManager currently only validates for values
      too small, but not for too big ones.)
      
      The fix is just to make sure the new value is valid. That is, between
      IPV6_MIN_MTU and interface's MTU.
      
      Note that similar check is already performed at
      ndisc_router_discovery(), for when kernel itself parses the RA.

      net: ipv6: allow explicitly choosing optimistic addresses · c58da4c6
      Erik Kline 提交于
      RFC 4429 ("Optimistic DAD") states that optimistic addresses
      should be treated as deprecated addresses.  From section 2.1:
      
         Unless noted otherwise, components of the IPv6 protocol stack
         should treat addresses in the Optimistic state equivalently to
         those in the Deprecated state, indicating that the address is
         available for use but should not be used if another suitable
         address is available.
      
      Optimistic addresses are indeed avoided when other addresses are
      available (i.e. at source address selection time), but they have
      not heretofore been available for things like explicit bind() and
      sendmsg() with struct in6_pktinfo, etc.
      
      This change makes optimistic addresses treated more like
      deprecated addresses than tentative ones.

      netlink: make nlmsg_end() and genlmsg_end() void · 053c095a
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      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.

      ipv6: Remove unnecessary test · 73cf0e92
      zhuyj 提交于
      The "init_net" test in function addrconf_exit_net is introduced
      in commit 44a6bd29 [Create ipv6 devconf-s for namespaces] to avoid freeing
      init_net. In commit c900a800 [ipv6: fix bad free of addrconf_init_net],
      function addrconf_init_net will allocate memory for every net regardless of
      init_net. In this case, it is unnecessary to make "init_net" test.

      net: Convert LIMIT_NETDEBUG to net_dbg_ratelimited · ba7a46f1
      Joe Perches 提交于
      Use the more common dynamic_debug capable net_dbg_ratelimited
      and remove the LIMIT_NETDEBUG macro.
      
      All messages are still ratelimited.
      
      Some KERN_<LEVEL> uses are changed to KERN_DEBUG.
      
      This may have some negative impact on messages that were
      emitted at KERN_INFO that are not not enabled at all unless
      DEBUG is defined or dynamic_debug is enabled.  Even so,
      these messages are now _not_ emitted by default.
      
      This also eliminates the use of the net_msg_warn sysctl
      "/proc/sys/net/core/warnings".  For backward compatibility,
      the sysctl is not removed, but it has no function.  The extern
      declaration of net_msg_warn is removed from sock.h and made
      static in net/core/sysctl_net_core.c
      
      Miscellanea:
      
      o Update the sysctl documentation
      o Remove the embedded uses of pr_fmt
      o Coalesce format fragments
      o Realign arguments

      net: ipv6: Add a sysctl to make optimistic addresses useful candidates · 7fd2561e
      Erik Kline 提交于
      Add a sysctl that causes an interface's optimistic addresses
      to be considered equivalent to other non-deprecated addresses
      for source address selection purposes.  Preferred addresses
      will still take precedence over optimistic addresses, subject
      to other ranking in the source address selection algorithm.
      
      This is useful where different interfaces are connected to
      different networks from different ISPs (e.g., a cell network
      and a home wifi network).
      
      The current behaviour complies with RFC 3484/6724, and it
      makes sense if the host has only one interface, or has
      multiple interfaces on the same network (same or cooperating
      administrative domain(s), but not in the multiple distinct
      networks case.
      
      For example, if a mobile device has an IPv6 address on an LTE
      network and then connects to IPv6-enabled wifi, while the wifi
      IPv6 address is undergoing DAD, IPv6 connections will try use
      the wifi default route with the LTE IPv6 address, and will get
      stuck until they time out.
      
      Also, because optimistic nodes can receive frames, issue
      an RTM_NEWADDR as soon as DAD starts (with the IFA_F_OPTIMSTIC
      flag appropriately set).  A second RTM_NEWADDR is sent if DAD
      completes (the address flags have changed), otherwise an
      RTM_DELADDR is sent.
      
      Also: add an entry in ip-sysctl.txt for optimistic_dad.

      ipv6: remove rt6i_genid · 705f1c86
      Hannes Frederic Sowa 提交于
      Eric Dumazet noticed that all no-nonexthop or no-gateway routes which
      are already marked DST_HOST (e.g. input routes routes) will always be
      invalidated during sk_dst_check. Thus per-socket dst caching absolutely
      had no effect and early demuxing had no effect.
      
      Thus this patch removes rt6i_genid: fn_sernum already gets modified during
      add operations, so we only must ensure we mutate fn_sernum during ipv6
      address remove operations. This is a fairly cost extensive operations,
      but address removal should not happen that often. Also our mtu update
      functions do the same and we heard no complains so far. xfrm policy
      changes also cause a call into fib6_flush_trees. Also plug a hole in
      rt6_info (no cacheline changes).
      
      I verified via tracing that this change has effect.
