net: ipv6/addrconf: introduce a regen_min_advance sysctl In RFC 8981, REGEN_ADVANCE cannot be less than 2 seconds, and the RFC does not permit the creation of temporary addresses with lifetimes shorter than that: > When processing a Router Advertisement with a > Prefix Information option carrying a prefix for the purposes of > address autoconfiguration (i.e., the A bit is set), the host MUST > perform the following steps: > 5. A temporary address is created only if this calculated preferred > lifetime is greater than REGEN_ADVANCE time units. However, some users want to change their IPv6 address as frequently as possible regardless of the RFC's arbitrary minimum lifetime. For the benefit of those users, add a regen_min_advance sysctl parameter that can be set to below or above 2 seconds.

net: add sysctl to disable rfc4862 5.5.3e lifetime handling This change adds a sysctl to opt-out of RFC4862 section 5.5.3e's valid lifetime derivation mechanism. RFC4862 section 5.5.3e prescribes that the valid lifetime in a Router Advertisement PIO shall be ignored if it less than 2 hours and to reset the lifetime of the corresponding address to 2 hours. An in-progress 6man draft (see draft-ietf-6man-slaac-renum-07 section 4.2) is currently looking to remove this mechanism. While this draft has not been moving particularly quickly for other reasons, there is widespread consensus on section 4.2 which updates RFC4862 section 5.5.3e.

net: change accept_ra_min_rtr_lft to affect all RA lifetimes accept_ra_min_rtr_lft only considered the lifetime of the default route and discarded entire RAs accordingly. This change renames accept_ra_min_rtr_lft to accept_ra_min_lft, and applies the value to individual RA sections; in particular, router lifetime, PIO preferred lifetime, and RIO lifetime. If any of those lifetimes are lower than the configured value, the specific RA section is ignored. In order for the sysctl to be useful to Android, it should really apply to all lifetimes in the RA, since that is what determines the minimum frequency at which RAs must be processed by the kernel. Android uses hardware offloads to drop RAs for a fraction of the minimum of all lifetimes present in the RA (some networks have very frequent RAs (5s) with high lifetimes (2h)). Despite this, we have encountered networks that set the router lifetime to 30s which results in very frequent CPU wakeups. Instead of disabling IPv6 (and dropping IPv6 ethertype in the WiFi firmware) entirely on such networks, it seems better to ignore the misconfigured routers while still processing RAs from other IPv6 routers on the same network (i.e. to support IoT applications). The previous implementation dropped the entire RA based on router lifetime. This turned out to be hard to expand to the other lifetimes present in the RA in a consistent manner; dropping the entire RA based on RIO/PIO lifetimes would essentially require parsing the whole thing twice.

ipv6: remove hard coded limitation on ipv6_pinfo IPv6 inet sockets are supposed to have a "struct ipv6_pinfo" field at the end of their definition, so that inet6_sk_generic() can derive from socket size the offset of the "struct ipv6_pinfo". This is very fragile, and prevents adding bigger alignment in sockets, because inet6_sk_generic() does not work if the compiler adds padding after the ipv6_pinfo component. We are currently working on a patch series to reorganize TCP structures for better data locality and found issues similar to the one fixed in commit f5d547676ca0 ("tcp: fix tcp_inet6_sk() for 32bit kernels") Alternative would be to force an alignment on "struct ipv6_pinfo", greater or equal to __alignof__(any ipv6 sock) to ensure there is no padding.

This is useful for mobile devices, whose battery life can be impacted by networks that configure RAs with a short lifetime.

icmp: ICMPV6: Examine invoking packet for Segment Route Headers. RFC8754 says: ICMP error packets generated within the SR domain are sent to source nodes within the SR domain. The invoking packet in the ICMP error message may contain an SRH. Since the destination address of a packet with an SRH changes as each segment is processed, it may not be the destination used by the socket or application that generated the invoking packet. For the source of an invoking packet to process the ICMP error message, the ultimate destination address of the IPv6 header may be required. The following logic is used to determine the destination address for use by protocol-error handlers. * Walk all extension headers of the invoking IPv6 packet to the routing extension header preceding the upper-layer header. - If routing header is type 4 Segment Routing Header (SRH) o The SID at Segment List[0] may be used as the destination address of the invoking packet. Mangle the skb so the network header points to the invoking packet inside the ICMP packet. The seg6 helpers can then be used on the skb to find any segment routing headers. If found, mark this fact in the IPv6 control block of the skb, and store the offset into the packet of the SRH. Then restore the skb back to its old state.

net: ndisc: introduce ndisc_evict_nocarrier sysctl parameter In most situations the neighbor discovery cache should be cleared on a NOCARRIER event which is currently done unconditionally. But for wireless roams the neighbor discovery cache can and should remain intact since the underlying network has not changed. This patch introduces a sysctl option ndisc_evict_nocarrier which can be disabled by a wireless supplicant during a roam. This allows packets to be sent after a roam immediately without having to wait for neighbor discovery. A user reported roughly a 1 second delay after a roam before packets could be sent out (note, on IPv4). This delay was due to the ARP cache being cleared. During testing of this same scenario using IPv6 no delay was noticed, but regardless there is no reason to clear the ndisc cache for wireless roams.

ipv6: ioam: Data plane support for Pre-allocated Trace Implement support for processing the IOAM Pre-allocated Trace with IPv6, see [1] and [2]. Introduce a new IPv6 Hop-by-Hop TLV option, see IANA [3]. A new per-interface sysctl is introduced. The value is a boolean to accept (=1) or ignore (=0, by default) IPv6 IOAM options on ingress for an interface: - net.ipv6.conf.XXX.ioam6_enabled Two other sysctls are introduced to define IOAM IDs, represented by an integer. They are respectively per-namespace and per-interface: - net.ipv6.ioam6_id - net.ipv6.conf.XXX.ioam6_id The value of the first one represents the IOAM ID of the node itself (u32; max and default value = U32_MAX>>8, due to hop limit concatenation) while the other represents the IOAM ID of an interface (u16; max and default value = U16_MAX). Each "ioam6_id" sysctl has a "_wide" equivalent: - net.ipv6.ioam6_id_wide - net.ipv6.conf.XXX.ioam6_id_wide The value of the first one represents the wide IOAM ID of the node itself (u64; max and default value = U64_MAX>>8, due to hop limit concatenation) while the other represents the wide IOAM ID of an interface (u32; max and default value = U32_MAX). The use of short and wide equivalents is not exclusive, a deployment could choose to leverage both. For example, net.ipv6.conf.XXX.ioam6_id (short format) could be an identifier for a physical interface, whereas net.ipv6.conf.XXX.ioam6_id_wide (wide format) could be an identifier for a logical sub-interface. Documentation about new sysctls is provided at the end of this patchset. Two relativistic hash tables are used: one for IOAM namespaces, the other for IOAM schemas. A namespace can only have a single active schema and a schema can only be attached to a single namespace (1:1 relationship).

net: icmp: pass zeroed opts from icmp{,v6}_ndo_send before sending The icmp{,v6}_send functions make all sorts of use of skb->cb, casting it with IPCB or IP6CB, assuming the skb to have come directly from the inet layer. But when the packet comes from the ndo layer, especially when forwarded, there's no telling what might be in skb->cb at that point. As a result, the icmp sending code risks reading bogus memory contents, which can result in nasty stack overflows such as this one reported by a user: panic+0x108/0x2ea __stack_chk_fail+0x14/0x20 __icmp_send+0x5bd/0x5c0 icmp_ndo_send+0x148/0x160 In icmp_send, skb->cb is cast with IPCB and an ip_options struct is read from it. The optlen parameter there is of particular note, as it can induce writes beyond bounds. There are quite a few ways that can happen in __ip_options_echo. For example: // sptr/skb are attacker-controlled skb bytes sptr = skb_network_header(skb); // dptr/dopt points to stack memory allocated by __icmp_send dptr = dopt->__data; // sopt is the corrupt skb->cb in question if (sopt->rr) { optlen = sptr[sopt->rr+1]; // corrupt skb->cb + skb->data soffset = sptr[sopt->rr+2]; // corrupt skb->cb + skb->data // this now writes potentially attacker-controlled data, over // flowing the stack: memcpy(dptr, sptr+sopt->rr, optlen); } In the icmpv6_send case, the story is similar, but not as dire, as only IP6CB(skb)->iif and IP6CB(skb)->dsthao are used. The dsthao case is worse than the iif case, but it is passed to ipv6_find_tlv, which does a bit of bounds checking on the value. This is easy to simulate by doing a `memset(skb->cb, 0x41, sizeof(skb->cb));` before calling icmp{,v6}_ndo_send, and it's only by good fortune and the rarity of icmp sending from that context that we've avoided reports like this until now. For example, in KASAN: BUG: KASAN: stack-out-of-bounds in __ip_options_echo+0xa0e/0x12b0 Write of size 38 at addr ffff888006f1f80e by task ping/89 CPU: 2 PID: 89 Comm: ping Not tainted 5.10.0-rc7-debug+ #5 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x9a/0xcc print_address_description.constprop.0+0x1a/0x160 __kasan_report.cold+0x20/0x38 kasan_report+0x32/0x40 check_memory_region+0x145/0x1a0 memcpy+0x39/0x60 __ip_options_echo+0xa0e/0x12b0 __icmp_send+0x744/0x1700 Actually, out of the 4 drivers that do this, only gtp zeroed the cb for the v4 case, while the rest did not. So this commit actually removes the gtp-specific zeroing, while putting the code where it belongs in the shared infrastructure of icmp{,v6}_ndo_send. This commit fixes the issue by passing an empty IPCB or IP6CB along to the functions that actually do the work. For the icmp_send, this was already trivial, thanks to __icmp_send providing the plumbing function. For icmpv6_send, this required a tiny bit of refactoring to make it behave like the v4 case, after which it was straight forward.

net: allow user to set metric on default route learned via Router Advertisement For IPv4, default route is learned via DHCPv4 and user is allowed to change metric using config etc/network/interfaces. But for IPv6, default route can be learned via RA, for which, currently a fixed metric value 1024 is used. Ideally, user should be able to configure metric on default route for IPv6 similar to IPv4. This patch adds sysctl for the same.

bridge: simplify ip_mc_check_igmp() and ipv6_mc_check_mld() calls This patch refactors ip_mc_check_igmp(), ipv6_mc_check_mld() and their callers (more precisely, the Linux bridge) to not rely on the skb_trimmed parameter anymore. An skb with its tail trimmed to the IP packet length was initially introduced for the following three reasons: 1) To be able to verify the ICMPv6 checksum. 2) To be able to distinguish the version of an IGMP or MLD query. They are distinguishable only by their size. 3) To avoid parsing data for an IGMPv3 or MLDv2 report that is beyond the IP packet but still within the skb. The first case still uses a cloned and potentially trimmed skb to verfiy. However, there is no need to propagate it to the caller. For the second and third case explicit IP packet length checks were added. This hopefully makes ip_mc_check_igmp() and ipv6_mc_check_mld() easier to read and verfiy, as well as easier to use.

ipv6: Add sockopt IPV6_MULTICAST_ALL analogue to IP_MULTICAST_ALL The socket option will be enabled by default to ensure current behaviour is not changed. This is the same for the IPv4 version. A socket bound to in6addr_any and a specific port will receive all traffic on that port. Analogue to IP_MULTICAST_ALL, disable this behaviour, if one or more multicast groups were joined (using said socket) and only pass on multicast traffic from groups, which were explicitly joined via this socket. Without this option disabled a socket (system even) joined to multiple multicast groups is very hard to get right. Filtering by destination address has to take place in user space to avoid receiving multicast traffic from other multicast groups, which might have traffic on the same port. The extension of the IP_MULTICAST_ALL socketoption to just apply to ipv6, too, is not done to avoid changing the behaviour of current applications.

net: reevalulate autoflowlabel setting after sysctl setting sysctl.ip6.auto_flowlabels is default 1. In our hosts, we set it to 2. If sockopt doesn't set autoflowlabel, outcome packets from the hosts are supposed to not include flowlabel. This is true for normal packet, but not for reset packet. The reason is ipv6_pinfo.autoflowlabel is set in sock creation. Later if we change sysctl.ip6.auto_flowlabels, the ipv6_pinfo.autoflowlabel isn't changed, so the sock will keep the old behavior in terms of auto flowlabel. Reset packet is suffering from this problem, because reset packet is sent from a special control socket, which is created at boot time. Since sysctl.ipv6.auto_flowlabels is 1 by default, the control socket will always have its ipv6_pinfo.autoflowlabel set, even after user set sysctl.ipv6.auto_flowlabels to 1, so reset packset will always have flowlabel. Normal sock created before sysctl setting suffers from the same issue. We can't even turn off autoflowlabel unless we kill all socks in the hosts. To fix this, if IPV6_AUTOFLOWLABEL sockopt is used, we use the autoflowlabel setting from user, otherwise we always call ip6_default_np_autolabel() which has the new settings of sysctl. Note, this changes behavior a little bit. Before commit 42240901f7c4 (ipv6: Implement different admin modes for automatic flow labels), the autoflowlabel behavior of a sock isn't sticky, eg, if sysctl changes, existing connection will change autoflowlabel behavior. After that commit, autoflowlabel behavior is sticky in the whole life of the sock. With this patch, the behavior isn't sticky again.

net: ipv6: sysctl to specify IPv6 ND traffic class Add a per-device sysctl to specify the default traffic class to use for kernel originated IPv6 Neighbour Discovery packets. Currently this includes: - Router Solicitation (ICMPv6 type 133) ndisc_send_rs() -> ndisc_send_skb() -> ip6_nd_hdr() - Neighbour Solicitation (ICMPv6 type 135) ndisc_send_ns() -> ndisc_send_skb() -> ip6_nd_hdr() - Neighbour Advertisement (ICMPv6 type 136) ndisc_send_na() -> ndisc_send_skb() -> ip6_nd_hdr() - Redirect (ICMPv6 type 137) ndisc_send_redirect() -> ndisc_send_skb() -> ip6_nd_hdr() and if the kernel ever gets around to generating RA's, it would presumably also include: - Router Advertisement (ICMPv6 type 134) (radvd daemon could pick up on the kernel setting and use it) Interface drivers may examine the Traffic Class value and translate the DiffServ Code Point into a link-layer appropriate traffic prioritization scheme. An example of mapping IETF DSCP values to IEEE 802.11 User Priority values can be found here: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tsvwg-ieee-802-11 The expected primary use case is to properly prioritize ND over wifi.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

udp6: fix jumbogram reception Since commit 67a51780aebb ("ipv6: udp: leverage scratch area helpers") udp6_recvmsg() read the skb len from the scratch area, to avoid a cache miss. But the UDP6 rx path support RFC 2675 UDPv6 jumbograms, and their length exceeds the 16 bits available in the scratch area. As a side effect the length returned by recvmsg() is: <ingress datagram len> % (1<<16) This commit addresses the issue allocating one more bit in the IP6CB flags field and setting it for incoming jumbograms. Such field is still in the first cacheline, so at recvmsg() time we can check it and fallback to access skb->len if required, without a measurable overhead.

ipv6: sr: add core files for SR HMAC support This patch adds the necessary functions to compute and check the HMAC signature of an SR-enabled packet. Two HMAC algorithms are supported: hmac(sha1) and hmac(sha256). In order to avoid dynamic memory allocation for each HMAC computation, a per-cpu ring buffer is allocated for this purpose. A new per-interface sysctl called seg6_require_hmac is added, allowing a user-defined policy for processing HMAC-signed SR-enabled packets. A value of -1 means that the HMAC field will always be ignored. A value of 0 means that if an HMAC field is present, its validity will be enforced (the packet is dropped is the signature is incorrect). Finally, a value of 1 means that any SR-enabled packet that does not contain an HMAC signature or whose signature is incorrect will be dropped.

ipv6: implement dataplane support for rthdr type 4 (Segment Routing Header) Implement minimal support for processing of SR-enabled packets as described in https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-6man-segment-routing-header-02. This patch implements the following operations: - Intermediate segment endpoint: incrementation of active segment and rerouting. - Egress for SR-encapsulated packets: decapsulation of outer IPv6 header + SRH and routing of inner packet. - Cleanup flag support for SR-inlined packets: removal of SRH if we are the penultimate segment endpoint. A per-interface sysctl seg6_enabled is provided, to accept/deny SR-enabled packets. Default is deny. This patch does not provide support for HMAC-signed packets.

net: Require exact match for TCP socket lookups if dif is l3mdev Currently, socket lookups for l3mdev (vrf) use cases can match a socket that is bound to a port but not a device (ie., a global socket). If the sysctl tcp_l3mdev_accept is not set this leads to ack packets going out based on the main table even though the packet came in from an L3 domain. The end result is that the connection does not establish creating confusion for users since the service is running and a socket shows in ss output. Fix by requiring an exact dif to sk_bound_dev_if match if the skb came through an interface enslaved to an l3mdev device and the tcp_l3mdev_accept is not set. skb's through an l3mdev interface are marked by setting a flag in inet{6}_skb_parm. The IPv6 variant is already set; this patch adds the flag for IPv4. Using an skb flag avoids a device lookup on the dif. The flag is set in the VRF driver using the IP{6}CB macros. For IPv4, the inet_skb_parm struct is moved in the cb per commit 971f10eca186, so the match function in the TCP stack needs to use TCP_SKB_CB. For IPv6, the move is done after the socket lookup, so IP6CB is used. The flags field in inet_skb_parm struct needs to be increased to add another flag. There is currently a 1-byte hole following the flags, so it can be expanded to u16 without increasing the size of the struct.

net: l3mdev: Add hook in ip and ipv6 Currently the VRF driver uses the rx_handler to switch the skb device to the VRF device. Switching the dev prior to the ip / ipv6 layer means the VRF driver has to duplicate IP/IPv6 processing which adds overhead and makes features such as retaining the ingress device index more complicated than necessary. This patch moves the hook to the L3 layer just after the first NF_HOOK for PRE_ROUTING. This location makes exposing the original ingress device trivial (next patch) and allows adding other NF_HOOKs to the VRF driver in the future. dev_queue_xmit_nit is exported so that the VRF driver can cycle the skb with the switched device through the packet taps to maintain current behavior (tcpdump can be used on either the vrf device or the enslaved devices).

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 1000::/8 via 8000::2 dev p8p1 metric 1024 pref medium 7000::/8 dev p7p1 proto kernel metric 256 dead linkdown pref medium 8000::/8 dev p8p1 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium 9000::/8 via 8000::2 dev p8p1 metric 2048 pref medium 9000::/8 via 7000::2 dev p7p1 metric 1024 dead linkdown pref medium fe80::/64 dev p7p1 proto kernel metric 256 dead linkdown pref medium fe80::/64 dev p8p1 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium This also adds devconf support and notification when sysctl values change. v2: drop use of rt6i_nhflags since it is not needed right now Signed-off-by: Andy Gospodarek <gospo@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: Dinesh Dutt <ddutt@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

net/ipv6: add sysctl option accept_ra_min_hop_limit Commit 6fd99094de2b ("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.

net: ipv6: Add sysctl entry to disable MTU updates from RA The kernel forcefully applies MTU values received in router advertisements provided the new MTU is less than the current. This behavior is undesirable when the user space is managing the MTU. Instead a sysctl flag 'accept_ra_mtu' is introduced such that the user space can control whether or not RA provided MTU updates should be applied. The default behavior is unchanged; user space must explicitly set this flag to 0 for RA MTUs to be ignored. Signed-off-by: Harout Hedeshian <harouth@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

net: ipv6: Add a sysctl to make optimistic addresses useful candidates 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: Implement automatic flow label generation on transmit Automatically generate flow labels for IPv6 packets on transmit. The flow label is computed based on skb_get_hash. The flow label will only automatically be set when it is zero otherwise (i.e. flow label manager hasn't set one). This supports the transmit side functionality of RFC 6438. Added an IPv6 sysctl auto_flowlabels to enable/disable this behavior system wide, and added IPV6_AUTOFLOWLABEL socket option to enable this functionality per socket. By default, auto flowlabels are disabled to avoid possible conflicts with flow label manager, however if this feature proves useful we may want to enable it by default. It should also be noted that FreeBSD has already implemented automatic flow labels (including the sysctl and socket option). In FreeBSD, automatic flow labels default to enabled. Performance impact: Running super_netperf with 200 flows for TCP_RR and UDP_RR for IPv6. Note that in UDP case, __skb_get_hash will be called for every packet with explains slight regression. In the TCP case the hash is saved in the socket so there is no regression. Automatic flow labels disabled: TCP_RR: 86.53% CPU utilization 127/195/322 90/95/99% latencies 1.40498e+06 tps UDP_RR: 90.70% CPU utilization 118/168/243 90/95/99% latencies 1.50309e+06 tps Automatic flow labels enabled: TCP_RR: 85.90% CPU utilization 128/199/337 90/95/99% latencies 1.40051e+06 UDP_RR 92.61% CPU utilization 115/164/236 90/95/99% latencies 1.4687e+06 Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This can also be noticed for TCP listeners, as ipv6_only_sock() is also used from __inet_lookup_listener()->compute_score() This is magnified when SO_REUSEPORT is used.

ipv6: Allow accepting RA from local IP addresses. This can be used in virtual networking applications, and may have other uses as well. The option is disabled by default. A specific use case is setting up virtual routers, bridges, and hosts on a single OS without the use of network namespaces or virtual machines. With proper use of ip rules, routing tables, veth interface pairs and/or other virtual interfaces, and applications that can bind to interfaces and/or IP addresses, it is possibly to create one or more virtual routers with multiple hosts attached. The host interfaces can act as IPv6 systems, with radvd running on the ports in the virtual routers. With the option provided in this patch enabled, those hosts can now properly obtain IPv6 addresses from the radvd. Signed-off-by: Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Also provide a helper for protocols which don't offer dual personality to further use ip6_datagram_recv_ctl, which is exported to modules.

net: Add support for hardware-offloaded encapsulation This patch adds support in the kernel for offloading in the NIC Tx and Rx checksumming for encapsulated packets (such as VXLAN and IP GRE). For Tx encapsulation offload, the driver will need to set the right bits in netdev->hw_enc_features. The protocol driver will have to set the skb->encapsulation bit and populate the inner headers, so the NIC driver will use those inner headers to calculate the csum in hardware. For Rx encapsulation offload, the driver will need to set again the skb->encapsulation flag and the skb->ip_csum to CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. In that case the protocol driver should push the decapsulated packet up to the stack, again with CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. In ether case, the protocol driver should set the skb->encapsulation flag back to zero. Finally the protocol driver should have NETIF_F_RXCSUM flag set in its features.

net: move inet_dport/inet_num in sock_common commit 68835aba4d9b (net: optimize INET input path further) moved some fields used for tcp/udp sockets lookup in the first cache line of struct sock_common. This patch moves inet_dport/inet_num as well, filling a 32bit hole on 64 bit arches and reducing number of cache line misses in lookups. Also change INET_MATCH()/INET_TW_MATCH() to perform the ports match before addresses match, as this check is more discriminant. Remove the hash check from MATCH() macros because we dont need to re validate the hash value after taking a refcount on socket, and use likely/unlikely compiler hints, as the sk_hash/hash check makes the following conditional tests 100% predicted by cpu. Introduce skc_addrpair/skc_portpair pair values to better document the alignment requirements of the port/addr pairs used in the various MATCH() macros, and remove some casts. The namespace check can also be done at last. This slightly improves TCP/UDP lookup times. IP/TCP early demux needs inet->rx_dst_ifindex and TCP needs inet->min_ttl, lets group them together in same cache line. With help from Ben Hutchings & Joe Perches. Idea of this patch came after Ling Ma proposal to move skc_hash to the beginning of struct sock_common, and should allow him to submit a final version of his patch. My tests show an improvement doing so.

netfilter: nf_conntrack_ipv6: improve fragmentation handling The IPv6 conntrack fragmentation currently has a couple of shortcomings. Fragmentes are collected in PREROUTING/OUTPUT, are defragmented, the defragmented packet is then passed to conntrack, the resulting conntrack information is attached to each original fragment and the fragments then continue their way through the stack. Helper invocation occurs in the POSTROUTING hook, at which point only the original fragments are available. The result of this is that fragmented packets are never passed to helpers. This patch improves the situation in the following way: - If a reassembled packet belongs to a connection that has a helper assigned, the reassembled packet is passed through the stack instead of the original fragments. - During defragmentation, the largest received fragment size is stored. On output, the packet is refragmented if required. If the largest received fragment size exceeds the outgoing MTU, a "packet too big" message is generated, thus behaving as if the original fragments were passed through the stack from an outside point of view. - The ipv6_helper() hook function can't receive fragments anymore for connections using a helper, so it is switched to use ipv6_skip_exthdr() instead of the netfilter specific nf_ct_ipv6_skip_exthdr() and the reassembled packets are passed to connection tracking helpers. The result of this is that we can properly track fragmented packets, but still generate ICMPv6 Packet too big messages if we would have before. This patch is also required as a precondition for IPv6 NAT, where NAT helpers might enlarge packets up to a point that they require fragmentation. In that case we can't generate Packet too big messages since the proper MTU can't be calculated in all cases (f.i. when changing textual representation of a variable amount of addresses), so the packet is transparently fragmented iff the original packet or fragments would have fit the outgoing MTU.

net: implement IP_RECVTOS for IP_PKTOPTIONS Currently, it is not easily possible to get TOS/DSCP value of packets from an incoming TCP stream. The mechanism is there, IP_PKTOPTIONS getsockopt with IP_RECVTOS set, the same way as incoming TTL can be queried. This is not actually implemented for TOS, though. This patch adds this functionality, both for IPv4 (IP_PKTOPTIONS) and IPv6 (IPV6_2292PKTOPTIONS). For IPv4, like in the IP_RECVTTL case, the value of the TOS field is stored from the other party's ACK. This is needed for proxies which require DSCP transparency. One such example is at http://zph.bratcheda.org/. Signed-off-by: Jiri Benc <jbenc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

There are only a handful of extension headers specified which we'd even accept (say 5 or 6), therefore the largest next-header offset we'd ever have to contend with is something less than say 16k.

ipv6: ip6mr: support multiple tables 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 MRT6_TABLE. The table number is stored in the raw socket data and affects all following ip6mr setsockopt(), getsockopt() and ioctl() calls. By default, a single table (RT6_TABLE_DFLT) is created with a default routing rule pointing to it. Newly created pim6reg devices have the table number appended ("pim6regX"), with the exception of devices created in the default table, which are named just "pim6reg" 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, SOL_IPV6, MRT6_TABLE, &table, sizeof(table)); - create routing rules directing packets to the new table: # ip -6 mrule add iif eth0 lookup 123 # ip -6 mrule add oif eth0 lookup 123 Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

ipv6: Fix the size overflow of addrconf_sysctl array (This patch fixes bug of commit f7734fdf61ec6bb848e0bafc1fb8bad2c124bb50 title "make TLLAO option for NA packets configurable") When the IPV6 conf is used, the function sysctl_set_parent is called and the array addrconf_sysctl is used as a parameter of the function. The above patch added new conf "force_tllao" into the array addrconf_sysctl, but the size of the array was not modified, the static allocated size is DEVCONF_MAX + 1 but the real size is DEVCONF_MAX + 2, so the problem is that the function sysctl_set_parent accessed wrong address.

This patch adds a new sysctl option (disabled by default) which controls whether this option should be sent even with unicast NAs. The need for this arose because certain routers expect the TLLAO in some situations even as a response to unicast NS packets.

ipv6: Add IPV6_PKTINFO sticky option support to setsockopt() There are three reasons for me to add this support: 1.When no interface is specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO ancillary data item, the interface specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO sticky optionis is used. RFC3542: 6.7. Summary of Outgoing Interface Selection This document and [RFC-3493] specify various methods that affect the selection of the packet's outgoing interface. This subsection summarizes the ordering among those in order to ensure deterministic behavior. For a given outgoing packet on a given socket, the outgoing interface is determined in the following order: 1. if an interface is specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO ancillary data item, the interface is used. 2. otherwise, if an interface is specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO sticky option, the interface is used. 2.When no IPV6_PKTINFO ancillary data is received,getsockopt() should return the sticky option value which set with setsockopt(). RFC 3542: Issuing getsockopt() for the above options will return the sticky option value i.e., the value set with setsockopt(). If no sticky option value has been set getsockopt() will return the following values: 3.Make the setsockopt implementation POSIX compliant.

Loadable features: * MH receiving check (to send ICMP error back) * RO header parsing and building (i.e. RH2 and HAO in DSTOPTS) * XFRM policy/state database handling for RO These are NOT covered as loadable: * Home Address flags and its rule on source address selection * XFRM sub policy (depends on its own kernel option) * XFRM functions to receive RO as IPv6 extension header * MH sending/receiving through raw socket if user application opens it (since raw socket allows to do so) * RH2 sending as ancillary data * RH2 operation with setsockopt(2) Signed-off-by: Masahide NAKAMURA <nakam@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

[IPV6] ADDRCONF: Optimistic Duplicate Address Detection (RFC 4429) Support. Nominally an autoconfigured IPv6 address is added to an interface in the Tentative state (as per RFC 2462). Addresses in this state remain in this state while the Duplicate Address Detection process operates on them to determine their uniqueness on the network. During this period, these tentative addresses may not be used for communication, increasing the time before a node may be able to communicate on a network. Using Optimistic Duplicate Address Detection, autoconfigured addresses may be used immediately for communication on the network, as long as certain rules are followed to avoid conflicts with other nodes during the Duplicate Address Detection process.

Use xfrm_decode_session and do the lookup manually, make sure both only do the lookup if the packet hasn't been transformed already. Makeing sure the lookup only happens once needs a new field in the IP6CB, which exceeds the size of skb->cb. The size of skb->cb is increased to 48b.

[INET]: speedup inet (tcp/dccp) lookups Arnaldo and I agreed it could be applied now, because I have other pending patches depending on this one (Thank you Arnaldo) (The other important patch moves skc_refcnt in a separate cache line, so that the SMP/NUMA performance doesnt suffer from cache line ping pongs) 1) First some performance data : -------------------------------- tcp_v4_rcv() wastes a *lot* of time in __inet_lookup_established() The most time critical code is : sk_for_each(sk, node, &head->chain) { if (INET_MATCH(sk, acookie, saddr, daddr, ports, dif)) goto hit; /* You sunk my battleship! */ } The sk_for_each() does use prefetch() hints but only the begining of "struct sock" is prefetched. As INET_MATCH first comparison uses inet_sk(__sk)->daddr, wich is far away from the begining of "struct sock", it has to bring into CPU cache cold cache line. Each iteration has to use at least 2 cache lines. This can be problematic if some chains are very long. 2) The goal ----------- The idea I had is to change things so that INET_MATCH() may return FALSE in 99% of cases only using the data already in the CPU cache, using one cache line per iteration. 3) Description of the patch --------------------------- Adds a new 'unsigned int skc_hash' field in 'struct sock_common', filling a 32 bits hole on 64 bits platform. struct sock_common { unsigned short skc_family; volatile unsigned char skc_state; unsigned char skc_reuse; int skc_bound_dev_if; struct hlist_node skc_node; struct hlist_node skc_bind_node; atomic_t skc_refcnt; + unsigned int skc_hash; struct proto *skc_prot; }; Store in this 32 bits field the full hash, not masked by (ehash_size - 1) Using this full hash as the first comparison done in INET_MATCH permits us immediatly skip the element without touching a second cache line in case of a miss. Suppress the sk_hashent/tw_hashent fields since skc_hash (aliased to sk_hash and tw_hash) already contains the slot number if we mask with (ehash_size - 1) File include/net/inet_hashtables.h 64 bits platforms : #define INET_MATCH(__sk, __hash, __cookie, __saddr, __daddr, __ports, __dif)\ (((__sk)->sk_hash == (__hash)) ((*((__u64 *)&(inet_sk(__sk)->daddr)))== (__cookie)) && \ ((*((__u32 *)&(inet_sk(__sk)->dport))) == (__ports)) && \ (!((__sk)->sk_bound_dev_if) || ((__sk)->sk_bound_dev_if == (__dif)))) 32bits platforms: #define TCP_IPV4_MATCH(__sk, __hash, __cookie, __saddr, __daddr, __ports, __dif)\ (((__sk)->sk_hash == (__hash)) && \ (inet_sk(__sk)->daddr == (__saddr)) && \ (inet_sk(__sk)->rcv_saddr == (__daddr)) && \ (!((__sk)->sk_bound_dev_if) || ((__sk)->sk_bound_dev_if == (__dif)))) - Adds a prefetch(head->chain.first) in __inet_lookup_established()/__tcp_v4_check_established() and __inet6_lookup_established()/__tcp_v6_check_established() and __dccp_v4_check_established() to bring into cache the first element of the list, before the {read|write}_lock(&head->lock); Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Acked-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@ghostprotocols.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

[NET] Generalise TCP's struct open_request minisock infrastructure Kept this first changeset minimal, without changing existing names to ease peer review. Basicaly tcp_openreq_alloc now receives the or_calltable, that in turn has two new members: ->slab, that replaces tcp_openreq_cachep ->obj_size, to inform the size of the openreq descendant for a specific protocol The protocol specific fields in struct open_request were moved to a class hierarchy, with the things that are common to all connection oriented PF_INET protocols in struct inet_request_sock, the TCP ones in tcp_request_sock, that is an inet_request_sock, that is an open_request. I.e. this uses the same approach used for the struct sock class hierarchy, with sk_prot indicating if the protocol wants to use the open_request infrastructure by filling in sk_prot->rsk_prot with an or_calltable. Results? Performance is improved and TCP v4 now uses only 64 bytes per open request minisock, down from 96 without this patch :-) Next changeset will rename some of the structs, fields and functions mentioned above, struct or_calltable is way unclear, better name it struct request_sock_ops, s/struct open_request/struct request_sock/g, etc. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@ghostprotocols.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
