* ipv4: Create probe timer for tcp PMTU as per RFC4821Fan Du2015-03-061-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As per RFC4821 7.3. Selecting Probe Size, a probe timer should be armed once probing has converged. Once this timer expired, probing again to take advantage of any path PMTU change. The recommended probing interval is 10 minutes per RFC1981. Probing interval could be sysctled by sysctl_tcp_probe_interval. Eric Dumazet suggested to implement pseudo timer based on 32bits jiffies tcp_time_stamp instead of using classic timer for such rare event.

* ipv4: Use binary search to choose tcp PMTU probe_sizeFan Du2015-03-061-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current probe_size is chosen by doubling mss_cache, the probing process will end shortly with a sub-optimal mss size, and the link mtu will not be taken full advantage of, in return, this will make user to tweak tcp_base_mss with care. Use binary search to choose probe_size in a fine granularity manner, an optimal mss will be found to boost performance as its maxmium. In addition, introduce a sysctl_tcp_probe_threshold to control when probing will stop in respect to the width of search range.

* ipv4: add net bool fib_offload_disabledScott Feldman2015-03-061-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If something goes wrong with IPv4 FIB offload, mark entire net offload disabled. This is brute force policy to basically shut down IPv4 FIB offload permanently if there is a problem offloading any route to an external device. We can refine the policy in the future, to handle failures on a per-device or per-route basis, but for now, this policy is per-net. What we're trying to avoid is an inconsistent split between the kernel's FIB and the offload device's FIB. We don't want the device to fwd a pkt inconsitent with what the kernel would do. An example of a split is if device has 10.0.0.0/16 and kernel has 10.0.0.0/16 and 10.0.0.0/24, the device wouldn't see the longest prefix 10.0.0.0/24 and potentially forward pkts incorrectly. Limited capacity or limited capability are two ways a route may fail to install to the offload device. We'll not differentiate between failures at this time, and treat any failure as fatal and mark the net as fib_offload_disabled.

* fib_trie: Make fib_table rcu safeAlexander Duyck2015-03-041-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | The fib_table was wrapped in several places with an rcu_read_lock/rcu_read_unlock however after looking over the code I found several spots where the tables were being accessed as just standard pointers without any protections.

* multicast: Extend ip address command to enable multicast group join/leave onMadhu Challa2015-02-271-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 Signed-off-by: Madhu Challa <challa@noironetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* ipv4: Namespecify TCP PMTU mechanismFan Du2015-02-091-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Packetization Layer Path MTU Discovery works separately beside Path MTU Discovery at IP level, different net namespace has various requirements on which one to chose, e.g., a virutalized container instance would require TCP PMTU to probe an usable effective mtu for underlying tunnel, while the host would employ classical ICMP based PMTU to function. Hence making TCP PMTU mechanism per net namespace to decouple two functionality. Furthermore the probe base MSS should also be configured separately for each namespace.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In commit be9f4a44e7d41 ("ipv4: tcp: remove per net tcp_sock") I tried to address contention on a socket lock, but the solution I chose was horrible : commit 3a7c384ffd57e ("ipv4: tcp: unicast_sock should not land outside of TCP stack") addressed a selinux regression. commit 0980e56e506b ("ipv4: tcp: set unicast_sock uc_ttl to -1") took care of another regression. commit b5ec8eeac46 ("ipv4: fix ip_send_skb()") fixed another regression. commit 811230cd85 ("tcp: ipv4: initialize unicast_sock sk_pacing_rate") was another shot in the dark. Really, just use a proper socket per cpu, and remove the skb_orphan() call, to re-enable flow control. This solves a serious problem with FQ packet scheduler when used in hostile environments, as we do not want to allocate a flow structure for every RST packet sent in response to a spoofed packet.

* net: support marking accepting TCP socketsLorenzo Colitti2014-05-131-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When using mark-based routing, sockets returned from accept() may need to be marked differently depending on the incoming connection request. This is the case, for example, if different socket marks identify different networks: a listening socket may want to accept connections from all networks, but each connection should be marked with the network that the request came in on, so that subsequent packets are sent on the correct network. This patch adds a sysctl to mark TCP sockets based on the fwmark of the incoming SYN packet. If enabled, and an unmarked socket receives a SYN, then the SYN packet's fwmark is written to the connection's inet_request_sock, and later written back to the accepted socket when the connection is established. If the socket already has a nonzero mark, then the behaviour is the same as it is today, i.e., the listening socket's fwmark is used. Black-box tested using user-mode linux: - IPv4/IPv6 SYN+ACK, FIN, etc. packets are routed based on the mark of the incoming SYN packet. - The socket returned by accept() is marked with the mark of the incoming SYN packet. - Tested with syncookies=1 and syncookies=2.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Kernel-originated IP packets that have no user socket associated with them (e.g., ICMP errors and echo replies, TCP RSTs, etc.) are emitted with a mark of zero. Add a sysctl to make them have the same mark as the packet they are replying to. This allows an administrator that wishes to do so to use mark-based routing, firewalling, etc. for these replies by marking the original packets inbound.

* ipv4: introduce ip_dst_mtu_maybe_forward and protect forwarding path against ↵Hannes Frederic Sowa2014-01-131-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pmtu spoofing While forwarding we should not use the protocol path mtu to calculate the mtu for a forwarded packet but instead use the interface mtu. We mark forwarded skbs in ip_forward with IPSKB_FORWARDED, which was introduced for multicast forwarding. But as it does not conflict with our usage in unicast code path it is perfect for reuse. I moved the functions ip_sk_accept_pmtu, ip_sk_use_pmtu and ip_skb_dst_mtu along with the new ip_dst_mtu_maybe_forward to net/ip.h to fix circular dependencies because of IPSKB_FORWARDED. Because someone might have written a software which does probe destinations manually and expects the kernel to honour those path mtus I introduced a new per-namespace "ip_forward_use_pmtu" knob so someone can disable this new behaviour. We also still use mtus which are locked on a route for forwarding. The reason for this change is, that path mtus information can be injected into the kernel via e.g. icmp_err protocol handler without verification of local sockets. As such, this could cause the IPv4 forwarding path to wrongfully emit fragmentation needed notifications or start to fragment packets along a path. Tunnel and ipsec output paths clear IPCB again, thus IPSKB_FORWARDED won't be set and further fragmentation logic will use the path mtu to determine the fragmentation size. They also recheck packet size with help of path mtu discovery and report appropriate errors.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tcp_v4_send_reset() and tcp_v4_send_ack() use a single socket per network namespace. This leads to bad behavior on multiqueue NICS, because many cpus contend for the socket lock and once socket lock is acquired, extra false sharing on various socket fields slow down the operations. To better resist to attacks, we use a percpu socket. Each cpu can run without contention, using appropriate memory (local node) Additional features : 1) We also mirror the queue_mapping of the incoming skb, so that answers use the same queue if possible. 2) Setting SOCK_USE_WRITE_QUEUE socket flag speedup sock_wfree() 3) We now limit the number of in-flight RST/ACK [1] packets per cpu, instead of per namespace, and we honor the sysctl_wmem_default limit dynamically. (Prior to this patch, sysctl_wmem_default value was copied at boot time, so any further change would not affect tcp_sock limit) [1] These packets are only generated when no socket was matched for the incoming packet.

It makes it possible to send ICMP_ECHO messages and receive the corresponding ICMP_ECHOREPLY messages without any special privileges. In other words, the patch makes it possible to implement setuid-less and CAP_NET_RAW-less /bin/ping. In order not to increase the kernel's attack surface, the new functionality is disabled by default, but is enabled at bootup by supporting Linux distributions, optionally with restriction to a group or a group range (see below). Similar functionality is implemented in Mac OS X: http://www.manpagez.com/man/4/icmp/ A new ping socket is created with socket(PF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, PROT_ICMP) Message identifiers (octets 4-5 of ICMP header) are interpreted as local ports. Addresses are stored in struct sockaddr_in. No port numbers are reserved for privileged processes, port 0 is reserved for API ("let the kernel pick a free number"). There is no notion of remote ports, remote port numbers provided by the user (e.g. in connect()) are ignored. Data sent and received include ICMP headers. This is deliberate to: 1) Avoid the need to transport headers values like sequence numbers by other means. 2) Make it easier to port existing programs using raw sockets. ICMP headers given to send() are checked and sanitized. The type must be ICMP_ECHO and the code must be zero (future extensions might relax this, see below). The id is set to the number (local port) of the socket, the checksum is always recomputed. ICMP reply packets received from the network are demultiplexed according to their id's, and are returned by recv() without any modifications. IP header information and ICMP errors of those packets may be obtained via ancillary data (IP_RECVTTL, IP_RETOPTS, and IP_RECVERR). ICMP source quenches and redirects are reported as fake errors via the error queue (IP_RECVERR); the next hop address for redirects is saved to ee_info (in network order). socket(2) is restricted to the group range specified in "/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ping_group_range". It is "1 0" by default, meaning that nobody (not even root) may create ping sockets. Setting it to "100 100" would grant permissions to the single group (to either make /sbin/ping g+s and owned by this group or to grant permissions to the "netadmins" group), "0 4294967295" would enable it for the world, "100 4294967295" would enable it for the users, but not daemons. The existing code might be (in the unlikely case anyone needs it) extended rather easily to handle other similar pairs of ICMP messages (Timestamp/Reply, Information Request/Reply, Address Mask Request/Reply etc.). Userspace ping util & patch for it: http://openwall.info/wiki/people/segoon/ping For Openwall GNU/*/Linux it was the last step on the road to the setuid-less distro. A revision of this patch (for RHEL5/OpenVZ kernels) is in use in Owl-current, such as in the 2011/03/12 LiveCD ISOs: http://mirrors.kernel.org/openwall/Owl/current/iso/ Initially this functionality was written by Pavel Kankovsky for Linux 2.4.32, but unfortunately it was never made public. All ping options (-b, -p, -Q, -R, -s, -t, -T, -M, -I), are tested with the patch. PATCH v3: - switched to flowi4. - minor changes to be consistent with raw sockets code. PATCH v2: - changed ping_debug() to pr_debug(). - removed CONFIG_IP_PING. - removed ping_seq_fops.owner field (unused for procfs). - switched to proc_net_fops_create(). - switched to %pK in seq_printf(). PATCH v1: - fixed checksumming bug. - CAP_NET_RAW may not create icmp sockets anymore. RFC v2: - minor cleanups. - introduced sysctl'able group range to restrict socket(2).

* ipv4: remove ip_rt_secret timer (v4)Neil Horman2010-05-081-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | A while back there was a discussion regarding the rt_secret_interval timer. Given that we've had the ability to do emergency route cache rebuilds for awhile now, based on a statistical analysis of the various hash chain lengths in the cache, the use of the flush timer is somewhat redundant. This patch removes the rt_secret_interval sysctl, allowing us to rely solely on the statistical analysis mechanism to determine the need for route cache flushes.

* ipv4: ipmr: support multiple tablesPatrick McHardy2010-04-131-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for multiple independant multicast routing instances, named "tables". Userspace multicast routing daemons can bind to a specific table instance by issuing a setsockopt call using a new option MRT_TABLE. The table number is stored in the raw socket data and affects all following ipmr setsockopt(), getsockopt() and ioctl() calls. By default, a single table (RT_TABLE_DEFAULT) is created with a default routing rule pointing to it. Newly created pimreg devices have the table number appended ("pimregX"), with the exception of devices created in the default table, which are named just "pimreg" for compatibility reasons. Packets are directed to a specific table instance using routing rules, similar to how regular routing rules work. Currently iif, oif and mark are supported as keys, source and destination addresses could be supported additionally. Example usage: - bind pimd/xorp/... to a specific table: uint32_t table = 123; setsockopt(fd, IPPROTO_IP, MRT_TABLE, &table, sizeof(table)); - create routing rules directing packets to the new table: # ip mrule add iif eth0 lookup 123 # ip mrule add oif eth0 lookup 123 Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

* ipv4: ipmr: move unres_queue and timer to per-namespace dataPatrick McHardy2010-04-131-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The unres_queue is currently shared between all namespaces. Following patches will additionally allow to create multiple multicast routing tables in each namespace. Having a single shared queue for all these users seems to excessive, move the queue and the cleanup timer to the per-namespace data to unshare it. As a side-effect, this fixes a bug in the seq file iteration functions: the first entry returned is always from the current namespace, entries returned after that may belong to any namespace.

| * netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix hash resizing with namespacesPatrick McHardy2010-02-081-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As noticed by Jon Masters <jonathan@jonmasters.org>, the conntrack hash size is global and not per namespace, but modifiable at runtime through /sys/module/nf_conntrack/hashsize. Changing the hash size will only resize the hash in the current namespace however, so other namespaces will use an invalid hash size. This can cause crashes when enlarging the hashsize, or false negative lookups when shrinking it. Move the hash size into the per-namespace data and only use the global hash size to initialize the per-namespace value when instanciating a new namespace. Additionally restrict hash resizing to init_net for now as other namespaces are not handled currently. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Preliminary work to make IPv4 multicast routing netns-aware. Declare variable cache_resolve_queue_len per-namespace: move it into struct netns_ipv4. This variable counts the number of unresolved cache entries queued in the list mfc_unres_queue. This list is kept global to all netns as the number of entries per namespace is limited to 10 (hardcoded in routine ipmr_cache_unresolved). Entries belonging to different namespaces in mfc_unres_queue will be identified by matching the mfc_net member introduced previously in struct mfc_cache. Keeping this list global to all netns, also allows us to keep a single timer (ipmr_expire_timer) to handle their expiration. In some places cache_resolve_queue_len value was tested for arming or deleting the timer. These tests were equivalent to testing mfc_unres_queue value instead and are replaced in this patch.
