2014-01-15ipv6: don't count addrconf generated routes against gc limitHannes Frederic Sowa
[ Upstream commit a3300ef4bbb1f1e33ff0400e1e6cf7733d988f4f ] Brett Ciphery reported that new ipv6 addresses failed to get installed because the addrconf generated dsts where counted against the dst gc limit. We don't need to count those routes like we currently don't count administratively added routes. Because the max_addresses check enforces a limit on unbounded address generation first in case someone plays with router advertisments, we are still safe here.

2013-12-08ipv6: use rt6_get_dflt_router to get default router in rt6_route_rcvDuan Jiong
[ Upstream commit f104a567e673f382b09542a8dc3500aa689957b4 ] As the rfc 4191 said, the Router Preference and Lifetime values in a ::/0 Route Information Option should override the preference and lifetime values in the Router Advertisement header. But when the kernel deals with a ::/0 Route Information Option, the rt6_get_route_info() always return NULL, that means that overriding will not happen, because those default routers were added without flag RTF_ROUTEINFO in rt6_add_dflt_router(). In order to deal with that condition, we should call rt6_get_dflt_router when the prefix length is 0.

2013-11-04ipv6: restrict neighbor entry creation to output flowMarcelo Ricardo Leitner
This patch is based on 3.2.y branch, the one used by reporter. Please let me know if it should be different. Thanks. The patch which introduced the regression was applied on stables: 3.0.64 3.4.31 3.7.8 3.2.39 The patch which introduced the regression was for stable trees only. ---8<--- Commit 0d6a77079c475033cb622c07c5a880b392ef664e "ipv6: do not create neighbor entries for local delivery" introduced a regression on which routes to local delivery would not work anymore. Like this: $ ip -6 route add local 2001::/64 dev lo $ ping6 -c1 2001::9 PING 2001::9(2001::9) 56 data bytes ping: sendmsg: Invalid argument As this is a local delivery, that commit would not allow the creation of a neighbor entry and thus the packet cannot be sent. But as TPROXY scenario actually needs to avoid the neighbor entry creation only for input flow, this patch now limits previous patch to input flow, keeping output as before that patch.

If the ipv6 dst cache which copy from the dst generated by ICMPV6 RA packet. this dst cache will not check expire because it has no RTF_EXPIRES flag. So this dst cache will always be used until the dst gc run. Change the struct dst_entry,add a union contains new pointer from and expires. When rt6_info.rt6i_flags has no RTF_EXPIRES flag,the dst.expires has no use. we can use this field to point to where the dst cache copy from. The dst.from is only used in IPV6. rt6_check_expired check if rt6_info.dst.from is expired. ip6_rt_copy only set dst.from when the ort has flag RTF_ADDRCONF and RTF_DEFAULT.then hold the ort. ip6_dst_destroy release the ort. Add some functions to operate the RTF_EXPIRES flag and expires(from) together. and change the code to use these new adding functions. Changes from v5: modify ip6_route_add and ndisc_router_discovery to use new adding functions. Only set dst.from when the ort has flag RTF_ADDRCONF and RTF_DEFAULT.then hold the ort.

2012-04-01ipv6: Fix RTM_GETROUTE's interpretation of RTA_IIF to be consistent with ipv4Shmulik Ladkani
In IPv4, if an RTA_IIF attribute is specified within an RTM_GETROUTE message, then a route is searched as if a packet was received on the specified 'iif' interface. However in IPv6, RTA_IIF is not interpreted in the same way: 'inet6_rtm_getroute()' always calls 'ip6_route_output()', regardless the RTA_IIF attribute. As a result, in IPv6 there's no way to use RTM_GETROUTE in order to look for a route as if a packet was received on a specific interface. Fix 'inet6_rtm_getroute()' so that RTA_IIF is interpreted as "lookup a route as if a packet was received on the specified interface", similar to IPv4's 'inet_rtm_getroute()' interpretation.

2011-12-30IPv6: Avoid taking write lock for /proc/net/ipv6_routeJosh Hunt
During some debugging I needed to look into how /proc/net/ipv6_route operated and in my digging I found its calling fib6_clean_all() which uses "write_lock_bh(&table->tb6_lock)" before doing the walk of the table. I found this on 2.6.32, but reading the code I believe the same basic idea exists currently. Looking at the rtnetlink code they are only calling "read_lock_bh(&table->tb6_lock);" via fib6_dump_table(). While I realize reading from proc isn't the recommended way of fetching the ipv6 route table; taking a write lock seems unnecessary and would probably cause network performance issues. To verify this I loaded up the ipv6 route table and then ran iperf in 3 cases: * doing nothing * reading ipv6 route table via proc (while :; do cat /proc/net/ipv6_route > /dev/null; done) * reading ipv6 route table via rtnetlink (while :; do ip -6 route show table all > /dev/null; done) * Load the ipv6 route table up with: * for ((i = 0;i < 4000;i++)); do ip route add unreachable 2000::$i; done * iperf commands: * client: iperf -i 1 -V -c <ipv6 addr> * server: iperf -V -s * iperf results - 3 runs each (in Mbits/sec) * nothing: client: 927,927,927 server: 927,927,927 * proc: client: 179,97,96,113 server: 142,112,133 * iproute: client: 928,927,928 server: 927,927,927 lock_stat shows taking the write lock is causing the slowdown. Using this info I decided to write a version of fib6_clean_all() which replaces write_lock_bh(&table->tb6_lock) with read_lock_bh(&table->tb6_lock). With this new function I see the same results as with my rtnetlink iperf test. Signed-off-by: Josh Hunt <joshhunt00@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2011-12-13ipv6: If neigh lookup fails during icmp6 dst allocation, propagate error.David S. Miller
Don't just succeed with a route that has a NULL neighbour attached. This follows the behavior of addrconf_dst_alloc(). Allowing this kind of route to end up with a NULL neigh attached will result in packet drops on output until the route is somehow invalidated, since nothing will meanwhile try to lookup the neigh again. A statistic is bumped for the case where we see a neigh-less route on output, but the resulting packet drop is otherwise silent in nature, and frankly it's a hard error for this to happen and ipv6 should do what ipv4 does which is say something in the kernel logs.

in func icmp6_dst_alloc,dst_metric_set call ipv6_cow_metrics to set metric. ipv6_cow_metrics may will call rt6_bind_peer to set rt6_info->rt6i_peer.

2011-09-17ipv6: don't use inetpeer to store metrics for routes.Yan, Zheng
Current IPv6 implementation uses inetpeer to store metrics for routes. The problem of inetpeer is that it doesn't take subnet prefix length in to consideration. If two routes have the same address but different prefix length, they share same inetpeer. So changing metrics of one route also affects the other. The fix is to allocate separate metrics storage for each route. Signed-off-by: Zheng Yan <zheng.z.yan@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-08-03net: fix NULL dereferences in check_peer_redir()Eric Dumazet
Gergely Kalman reported crashes in check_peer_redir(). It appears commit f39925dbde778 (ipv4: Cache learned redirect information in inetpeer.) added a race, leading to possible NULL ptr dereference. Since we can now change dst neighbour, we should make sure a reader can safely use a neighbour. Add RCU protection to dst neighbour, and make sure check_peer_redir() can be called safely by different cpus in parallel. As neighbours are already freed after one RCU grace period, this patch should not add typical RCU penalty (cache cold effects) Many thanks to Gergely for providing a pretty report pointing to the bug.

2011-07-21ipv6: unshare inetpeersEric Dumazet
We currently cow metrics a bit too soon in IPv6 case : All routes are tied to a single inetpeer entry. Change ip6_rt_copy() to get destination address as second argument, so that we fill rt6i_dst before the dst_copy_metrics() call. icmp6_dst_alloc() must set rt6i_dst before calling dst_metric_set(), or else the cow is done while rt6i_dst is still NULL. If orig route points to readonly metrics, we can share the pointer instead of performing the memory allocation and copy. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
