inet: fix addr_len/msg->msg_namelen assignment in recv_error and rxpmtu functions

2013-11-23T22:46:23Z

Commit bceaa90240b6019ed73b49965eac7d167610be69 ("inet: prevent leakage of uninitialized memory to user in recv syscalls") conditionally updated addr_len if the msg_name is written to. The recv_error and rxpmtu functions relied on the recvmsg functions to set up addr_len before. As this does not happen any more we have to pass addr_len to those functions as well and set it to the size of the corresponding sockaddr length. This broke traceroute and such.

ipv6: make lookups simpler and faster

2013-10-09T04:01:25Z

TCP listener refactoring, part 4 : To speed up inet lookups, we moved IPv4 addresses from inet to struct sock_common Now is time to do the same for IPv6, because it permits us to have fast lookups for all kind of sockets, including upcoming SYN_RECV. Getting IPv6 addresses in TCP lookups currently requires two extra cache lines, plus a dereference (and memory stall). inet6_sk(sk) does the dereference of inet_sk(__sk)->pinet6 This patch is way bigger than its IPv4 counter part, because for IPv4, we could add aliases (inet_daddr, inet_rcv_saddr), while on IPv6, it's not doable easily. inet6_sk(sk)->daddr becomes sk->sk_v6_daddr inet6_sk(sk)->rcv_saddr becomes sk->sk_v6_rcv_saddr And timewait socket also have tw->tw_v6_daddr & tw->tw_v6_rcv_saddr at the same offset. We get rid of INET6_TW_MATCH() as INET6_MATCH() is now the generic macro. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: ipv4 only populate IP_PKTINFO when needed

2013-10-08T20:27:33Z

The since the removal of the routing cache computing fib_compute_spec_dst() does a fib_table lookup for each UDP multicast packet received. This has introduced a performance regression for some UDP workloads. This change skips populating the packet info for sockets that do not have IP_PKTINFO set. Benchmark results from a netperf UDP_RR test: Before 89789.68 transactions/s After 90587.62 transactions/s Benchmark results from a fio 1 byte UDP multicast pingpong test (Multicast one way unicast response): Before 12.63us RTT After 12.48us RTT Signed-off-by: Shawn Bohrer Acked-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.

net ipv4: Convert ipv4.ip_local_port_range to be per netns v3

2013-10-01T04:59:38Z

- Move sysctl_local_ports from a global variable into struct netns_ipv4. - Modify inet_get_local_port_range to take a struct net, and update all of the callers. - Move the initialization of sysctl_local_ports into sysctl_net_ipv4.c:ipv4_sysctl_init_net from inet_connection_sock.c v2: - Ensure indentation used tabs - Fixed ip.h so it applies cleanly to todays net-next v3: - Compile fixes of strange callers of inet_get_local_port_range. This patch now successfully passes an allmodconfig build. Removed manual inlining of inet_get_local_port_range in ipv4_local_port_range Originally-by: Samya Acked-by: Nicolas Dichtel Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv4: processing ancillary IP_TOS or IP_TTL

2013-09-28T22:21:52Z

If IP_TOS or IP_TTL are specified as ancillary data, then sendmsg() sends out packets with the specified TTL or TOS overriding the socket values specified with the traditional setsockopt(). The struct inet_cork stores the values of TOS, TTL and priority that are passed through the struct ipcm_cookie. If there are user-specified TOS (tos != -1) or TTL (ttl != 0) in the struct ipcm_cookie, these values are used to override the per-socket values. In case of TOS also the priority is changed accordingly. Two helper functions get_rttos and get_rtconn_flags are defined to take into account the presence of a user specified TOS value when computing RT_TOS and RT_CONN_FLAGS.

ipv4: IP_TOS and IP_TTL can be specified as ancillary data

2013-09-28T22:21:51Z

This patch enables the IP_TTL and IP_TOS values passed from userspace to be stored in the ipcm_cookie struct. Three fields are added to the struct: - the TTL, expressed as __u8. The allowed values are in the [1-255]. A value of 0 means that the TTL is not specified. - the TOS, expressed as __s16. The allowed values are in the range [0,255]. A value of -1 means that the TOS is not specified. - the priority, expressed as a char and computed when handling the ancillary data. Signed-off-by: Francesco Fusco Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ip*.h: Remove extern from function prototypes

2013-09-21T18:01:38Z

There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for function prototypes. Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern. extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

ip: generate unique IP identificator if local fragmentation is allowed

2013-09-19T18:11:15Z

If local fragmentation is allowed, then ip_select_ident() and ip_select_ident_more() need to generate unique IDs to ensure correct defragmentation on the peer. For example, if IPsec (tunnel mode) has to encrypt large skbs that have local_df bit set, then all IP fragments that belonged to different ESP datagrams would have used the same identificator. If one of these IP fragments would get lost or reordered, then peer could possibly stitch together wrong IP fragments that did not belong to the same datagram. This would lead to a packet loss or data corruption. Signed-off-by: Ansis Atteka Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: make snmp_mib_free static inline

2013-09-03T04:00:50Z

Fengguang reported: net/built-in.o: In function `in6_dev_finish_destroy': (.text+0x4ca7d): undefined reference to `snmp_mib_free' this is due to snmp_mib_free() is defined when CONFIG_INET is enabled, but in6_dev_finish_destroy() is now moved to core kernel. I think snmp_mib_free() is small enough to be inlined, so just make it static inline. Reported-by: kbuild test robot Signed-off-by: Cong Wang Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv4: Add a socket release callback for datagram sockets

2013-01-21T19:17:05Z

This implements a socket release callback function to check if the socket cached route got invalid during the time we owned the socket. The function is used from udp, raw and ping sockets. Signed-off-by: Steffen Klassert Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
