* tipc: filter out messages not intended for this hostNeil Horman2010-03-081-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Port commit 20deb48d16fdd07ce2fdc8d03ea317362217e085 from git://tipc.cslab.ericsson.net/pub/git/people/allan/tipc.git Part of the large effort I'm trying to help with getting all the downstreamed code from windriver forward ported to the upstream tree Origional commit message Restore check to filter out inadverdently received messages This patch reimplements a check that allows TIPC to discard messages that are not intended for it. This check was present in TIPC 1.5/1.6, but was removed by accident during the development of TIPC 1.7; it has now been updated to account for new features present in TIPC 1.7 and reinserted into TIPC. The main benefit of this check is to filter out messages arriving from orphaned link endpoints, which can arise when a node exits the network and then re-enters it with a different TIPC network address (i.e. <Z.C.N> value).

* tipc: fix endianness on tipc subscriber messagesNeil Horman2010-03-082-37/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove htohl implementation from tipc I was working on forward porting the downstream commits for TIPC and ran accross this one: http://tipc.cslab.ericsson.net/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=people/allan/tipc.git;a=commitdiff;h=894279b9437b63cbb02405ad5b8e033b51e4e31e I was going to just take it, when I looked closer and noted what it was doing. This is basically a routine to byte swap fields of data in sent/received packets for tipc, dependent upon the receivers guessed endianness of the peer when a connection is established. Asside from just seeming silly to me, it appears to violate the latest RFC draft for tipc: http://tipc.sourceforge.net/doc/draft-spec-tipc-02.txt Which, according to section 4.2 and 4.3.3, requires that all fields of all commands be sent in network byte order. So instead of just taking this patch, instead I'm removing the htohl function and replacing the calls with calls to ntohl in the rx path and htonl in the send path. As part of this fix, I'm also changing the subscr_cancel function, which searches the list of subscribers, using a memcmp of the entire subscriber list, for the entry to tear down. unfortunately it memcmps the entire tipc_subscr structure which has several bits that are private to the local side, so nothing will ever match. section 5.2 of the draft spec indicates the <type,upper,lower> tuple should uniquely identify a subscriber, so convert subscr_cancel to just match on those fields (properly endian swapped). I've tested this using the tipc test suite, and its passed without issue. Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

There is nothing stopping a client from trying to send such a message however, and if that happens, we attempt to dereference tipc_net.zones while the pointer is still NULL, and explode. The fix is pretty straightforward. Since these oopses all arise from the dereference of global pointers prior to their assignment to allocated values, and since these allocations are small (about 2k total), lets convert these pointers to static arrays of the appropriate size. All the accesses to these bits consider 0/NULL to be a non match when searching, so all the lookups still work properly, and there is no longer a chance of a bad dererence anywhere. As a bonus, this lets us eliminate the setup/teardown routines for those pointers, and elimnates the need to preform any locking around them to prevent access while their being allocated/freed. I've updated the tipc_net structure to behave this way to fix the exact reported problem, and also fixed up the tipc_bearers and media_list arrays to fix an obvious simmilar problem that arises from issuing tipc-config commands to manipulate bearers/links prior to entering networked mode I've tested this for a few hours by running the sanity tests and stress test with the tipcutils suite, and nothing has fallen over. There have been a few lockdep warnings, but those were there before, and can be addressed later, as they didn't actually result in any deadlock.

* genetlink: make netns awareJohannes Berg2009-07-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes generic netlink network namespace aware. No generic netlink families except for the controller family are made namespace aware, they need to be checked one by one and then set the family->netnsok member to true. A new function genlmsg_multicast_netns() is introduced to allow sending a multicast message in a given namespace, for example when it applies to an object that lives in that namespace, a new function genlmsg_multicast_allns() to send a message to all network namespaces (for objects that do not have an associated netns). The function genlmsg_multicast() is changed to multicast the message in just init_net, which is currently correct for all generic netlink families since they only work in init_net right now. Some will later want to work in all net namespaces because they do not care about the netns at all -- those will have to be converted to use one of the new functions genlmsg_multicast_allns() or genlmsg_multicast_netns() whenever they are made netns aware in some way. After this patch families can easily decide whether or not they should be available in all net namespaces. Many genl families us it for objects not related to networking and should therefore be available in all namespaces, but that will have to be done on a per family basis. Note that this doesn't touch on the checkpoint/restart problem where network namespaces could be used, genl families and multicast groups are numbered globally and I see no easy way of changing that, especially since it must be possible to multicast to all network namespaces for those families that do not care about netns.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch simplifies and speeds up TIPC's algorithm for identifying on-node and off-node destinations that overlap a multicast name sequence range. Rather than traversing the list of all known name publications within the cluster, it now traverses the (potentially much shorter) list of name publications made by the node itself, and determines if any off-node destinations exist by comparing the sizes of the two lists. (Since the node list must be a subset of the cluster list, a difference in sizes means that at least one off-node destination must exist.)

| | | | | | | | | This patch re-orders & re-groups the error checks performed on messages being delivered to native API ports, in order to clarify the similarities and differences required for the various message types.

* tipc: Fix bug in connection setup via native APIAllan Stephens2008-06-041-6/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a bug that prevented TIPC from receiving a connection setup request message on a native TIPC port. The revised connection setup logic ensures that validation of the source of a connection-based message is skipped if the port is not yet connected to a peer.

* tipc: Fix initialization sequence problems when entering network modeAllan Stephens2008-05-215-9/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch ensures that TIPC's topology service and configuration service are shut down before switching into "network mode". This ensures that TIPC does not mistakenly try to send unnecessary "publication withdraw" messages to other nodes before it is fully initialized for sending off-node messages. Note that the node's current network address is now updated only after the two services are shut down; this ensures that any existing connections to the topology server are terminated correctly using the old address.

* tipc: Update "previous node" indicators when node address changesAllan Stephens2008-05-211-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | This patch ensures that the "previous node" field in any existing TIPC port message header templates is updated properly when a TIPC network address is assigned to the node. (Previously, only the "originating node" field was updated.) Signed-off-by: Allan Stephens <allan.stephens@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* tipc: Optimize null pointer check during neighbor discoveryAllan Stephens2008-05-211-3/+2
| | | | | | | | This patch optimizes TIPC neighbor discovery code to avoid testing for a null node pointer when the pointer is already known to be non-null. Signed-off-by: Allan Stephens <allan.stephens@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* tipc: Prevent node object duplication due to simultaneous discoveryAllan Stephens2008-05-211-0/+26
| | | | | | | | | This patch ensures that the simultaneous discovery of the same neighboring node by multiple interfaces does not cause TIPC to add the node into its internal data structures more than once.

* tipc: Fix skb_under_panic when configuring TIPC without privilegesAllan Stephens2008-05-212-8/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch prevents a TIPC configuration command requiring network administrator privileges from triggering an skbuff underrun if it is issued by a process lacking those privileges. The revised error handling code avoids the use of a potentially uninitialized global variable by transforming the unauthorized command into a new command, then following the standard command processing path to generate the required error message.

* tipc: Cosmetic cleanup of topology service codeAllan Stephens2008-05-192-15/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch contains a set of cosmetic changes to TIPC's network topology service subsystem, including: - updates to comments (including copyright dates) - re-ordering structure fields to group them more logically - removal of optional debugging code that is no longer required - minor changes to whitespace to conform to Linux coding conventions Signed-off-by: Allan Stephens <allan.stephens@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* tipc: Consolidate subscriber & subscriber port referencesAllan Stephens2008-05-193-90/+116
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch modifies TIPC's network topology service so that it only requires a single reference table entry per subscriber connection, rather than two. This is achieved by letting the reference to the server port communicating with the subscriber act as the reference to the subscriber object itself. (Since the subscriber cannot exist without its port, and vice versa, this dual role for the reference is perfectly natural.) This consolidation reduces the size of the reference table by 50% in the default configuration. Signed-off-by: Allan Stephens <allan.stephens@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
