2017-07-21net: ipv6: Compare lwstate in detecting duplicate nexthopsDavid Ahern
commit f06b7549b79e29a672336d4e134524373fb7a232 upstream. Lennert reported a failure to add different mpls encaps in a multipath route: $ ip -6 route add 1234::/16 \ nexthop encap mpls 10 via fe80::1 dev ens3 \ nexthop encap mpls 20 via fe80::1 dev ens3 RTNETLINK answers: File exists The problem is that the duplicate nexthop detection does not compare lwtunnel configuration. Add it.

2017-05-14ipv6: initialize route null entry in addrconf_init()WANG Cong
[ Upstream commit 2f460933f58eee3393aba64f0f6d14acb08d1724 ] Andrey reported a crash on init_net.ipv6.ip6_null_entry->rt6i_idev since it is always NULL. This is clearly wrong, we have code to initialize it to loopback_dev, unfortunately the order is still not correct. loopback_dev is registered very early during boot, we lose a chance to re-initialize it in notifier. addrconf_init() is called after ip6_route_init(), which means we have no chance to correct it. Fix it by moving this initialization explicitly after ipv6_add_dev(init_net.loopback_dev) in addrconf_init().

2016-06-15net: vrf: Handle ipv6 multicast and link-local addressesDavid Ahern
IPv6 multicast and link-local addresses require special handling by the VRF driver: 1. Rather than using the VRF device index and full FIB lookups, packets to/from these addresses should use direct FIB lookups based on the VRF device table. 2. fail sends/receives on a VRF device to/from a multicast address (e.g, make ping6 ff02::1%<vrf> fail) 3. move the setting of the flow oif to the first dst lookup and revert the change in icmpv6_echo_reply made in ca254490c8dfd ("net: Add VRF support to IPv6 stack"). Linklocal/mcast addresses require use of the skb->dev. With this change connections into and out of a VRF enslaved device work for multicast and link-local addresses work (icmp, tcp, and udp) e.g., 1. packets into VM with VRF config: ping6 -c3 fe80::e0:f9ff:fe1c:b974%br1 ping6 -c3 ff02::1%br1 ssh -6 fe80::e0:f9ff:fe1c:b974%br1 2. packets going out a VRF enslaved device: ping6 -c3 fe80::18f8:83ff:fe4b:7a2e%eth1 ping6 -c3 ff02::1%eth1 ssh -6 root@fe80::18f8:83ff:fe4b:7a2e%eth1 Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsa@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2016-04-11net: vrf: Fix dst reference countingDavid Ahern
Vivek reported a kernel exception deleting a VRF with an active connection through it. The root cause is that the socket has a cached reference to a dst that is destroyed. Converting the dst_destroy to dst_release and letting proper reference counting kick in does not work as the dst has a reference to the device which needs to be released as well. I talked to Hannes about this at netdev and he pointed out the ipv4 and ipv6 dst handling has dst_ifdown for just this scenario. Rather than continuing with the reinvented dst wheel in VRF just remove it and leverage the ipv4 and ipv6 versions.

2016-01-29ipv6: enforce flowi6_oif usage in ip6_dst_lookup_tail()Paolo Abeni
The current implementation of ip6_dst_lookup_tail basically ignore the egress ifindex match: if the saddr is set, ip6_route_output() purposefully ignores flowi6_oif, due to the commit d46a9d678e4c ("net: ipv6: Dont add RT6_LOOKUP_F_IFACE flag if saddr set"), if the saddr is 'any' the first route lookup in ip6_dst_lookup_tail fails, but upon failure a second lookup will be performed with saddr set, thus ignoring the ifindex constraint. This commit adds an output route lookup function variant, which allows the caller to specify lookup flags, and modify ip6_dst_lookup_tail() to enforce the ifindex match on the second lookup via said helper. ip6_route_output() becames now a static inline function build on top of ip6_route_output_flags(); as a side effect, out-of-tree modules need now a GPL license to access the output route lookup functionality.

2015-12-03ipv6: kill sk_dst_lockEric Dumazet
While testing the np->opt RCU conversion, I found that UDP/IPv6 was using a mixture of xchg() and sk_dst_lock to protect concurrent changes to sk->sk_dst_cache, leading to possible corruptions and crashes. ip6_sk_dst_lookup_flow() uses sk_dst_check() anyway, so the simplest way to fix the mess is to remove sk_dst_lock completely, as we did for IPv4. __ip6_dst_store() and ip6_dst_store() share same implementation. sk_setup_caps() being called with socket lock being held or not, we have to use sk_dst_set() instead of __sk_dst_set() Note that I had to move the "np->dst_cookie = rt6_get_cookie(rt);" in ip6_dst_store() before the sk_setup_caps(sk, dst) call. This is because ip6_dst_store() can be called from process context, without any lock held. As soon as the dst is installed in sk->sk_dst_cache, dst can be freed from another cpu doing a concurrent ip6_dst_store() Doing the dst dereference before doing the install is needed to make sure no use after free would trigger.

2015-04-07netfilter: Pass socket pointer down through okfn().David Miller
On the output paths in particular, we have to sometimes deal with two socket contexts. First, and usually skb->sk, is the local socket that generated the frame. And second, is potentially the socket used to control a tunneling socket, such as one the encapsulates using UDP. We do not want to disassociate skb->sk when encapsulating in order to fix this, because that would break socket memory accounting. The most extreme case where this can cause huge problems is an AF_PACKET socket transmitting over a vxlan device. We hit code paths doing checks that assume they are dealing with an ipv4 socket, but are actually operating upon the AF_PACKET one. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2015-04-06ipv6: protect skb->sk accesses from recursive dereference inside the stackhannes@stressinduktion.org
We should not consult skb->sk for output decisions in xmit recursion levels > 0 in the stack. Otherwise local socket settings could influence the result of e.g. tunnel encapsulation process. ipv6 does not conform with this in three places: 1) ip6_fragment: we do consult ipv6_npinfo for frag_size 2) sk_mc_loop in ipv6 uses skb->sk and checks if we should loop the packet back to the local socket 3) ip6_skb_dst_mtu could query the settings from the user socket and force a wrong MTU Furthermore: In sk_mc_loop we could potentially land in WARN_ON(1) if we use a PF_PACKET socket ontop of an IPv6-backed vxlan device. Reuse xmit_recursion as we are currently only interested in protecting tunnel devices.

2014-05-15ipv6: update Destination Cache entries when gateway turn into hostDuan Jiong
RFC 4861 states in 7.2.5: The IsRouter flag in the cache entry MUST be set based on the Router flag in the received advertisement. In those cases where the IsRouter flag changes from TRUE to FALSE as a result of this update, the node MUST remove that router from the Default Router List and update the Destination Cache entries for all destinations using that neighbor as a router as specified in Section 7.3.3. This is needed to detect when a node that is used as a router stops forwarding packets due to being configured as a host. Currently, when dealing with NA Message which IsRouter flag changes from TRUE to FALSE, the kernel only removes router from the Default Router List, and don't update the Destination Cache entries. Now in order to update those Destination Cache entries, i introduce function rt6_clean_tohost().

As rt6_nexthop() prefers rt6i_gateway only for gatewayed routes this causes a problem for users like IPVS, xt_TEE and RAW(hdrincl) if they want to use different address for routing compared to the destination address. Another case is when redirect can create RTF_DYNAMIC route without RTF_GATEWAY flag, we ignore the rt6i_gateway in rt6_nexthop().

2012-06-15ipv6: Handle PMTU in ICMP error handlers.David S. Miller
One tricky issue on the ipv6 side vs. ipv4 is that the ICMP callouts to handle the error pass the 32-bit info cookie in network byte order whereas ipv4 passes it around in host byte order. Like the ipv4 side, we have two helper functions. One for when we have a socket context and one for when we do not. ip6ip6 tunnels are not handled here, because they handle PMTU events by essentially relaying another ICMP packet-too-big message back to the original sender. This patch allows us to get rid of rt6_do_pmtu_disc(). It handles all kinds of situations that simply cannot happen when we do the PMTU update directly using a fully resolved route. In fact, the "plen == 128" check in ip6_rt_update_pmtu() can very likely be removed or changed into a BUG_ON() check. We should never have a prefixed ipv6 route when we get there. Another piece of strange history here is that TCP and DCCP, unlike in ipv4, never invoke the update_pmtu() method from their ICMP error handlers. This is incredibly astonishing since this is the context where we have the most accurate context in which to make a PMTU update, namely we have a fully connected socket and associated cached socket route.
