ipv6: fix flow labels when the traffic class is non-0

2017-01-31T18:16:59Z

ip6_make_flowlabel() determines the flow label for IPv6 packets. It's supposed to be passed a flow label, which it returns as is if non-0 and in some other cases, otherwise it calculates a new value. The problem is callers often pass a flowi6.flowlabel, which may also contain traffic class bits. If the traffic class is non-0 ip6_make_flowlabel() mistakes the non-0 it gets as a flow label and returns the whole thing. Thus it can return a 'flow label' longer than 20b and the low 20b of that is typically 0 resulting in packets with 0 label. Moreover, different packets of a flow may be labeled differently. For a TCP flow with ECN non-payload and payload packets get different labels as exemplified by this pair of consecutive packets: (pure ACK) Internet Protocol Version 6, Src: 2002:af5:11a3::, Dst: 2002:af5:11a2:: 0110 .... = Version: 6 .... 0000 0000 .... .... .... .... .... = Traffic Class: 0x00 (DSCP: CS0, ECN: Not-ECT) .... 0000 00.. .... .... .... .... .... = Differentiated Services Codepoint: Default (0) .... .... ..00 .... .... .... .... .... = Explicit Congestion Notification: Not ECN-Capable Transport (0) .... .... .... 0001 1100 1110 0100 1001 = Flow Label: 0x1ce49 Payload Length: 32 Next Header: TCP (6) (payload) Internet Protocol Version 6, Src: 2002:af5:11a3::, Dst: 2002:af5:11a2:: 0110 .... = Version: 6 .... 0000 0010 .... .... .... .... .... = Traffic Class: 0x02 (DSCP: CS0, ECN: ECT(0)) .... 0000 00.. .... .... .... .... .... = Differentiated Services Codepoint: Default (0) .... .... ..10 .... .... .... .... .... = Explicit Congestion Notification: ECN-Capable Transport codepoint '10' (2) .... .... .... 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 = Flow Label: 0x00000 Payload Length: 688 Next Header: TCP (6) This patch allows ip6_make_flowlabel() to be passed more than just a flow label and has it extract the part it really wants. This was simpler than modifying the callers. With this patch packets like the above become Internet Protocol Version 6, Src: 2002:af5:11a3::, Dst: 2002:af5:11a2:: 0110 .... = Version: 6 .... 0000 0000 .... .... .... .... .... = Traffic Class: 0x00 (DSCP: CS0, ECN: Not-ECT) .... 0000 00.. .... .... .... .... .... = Differentiated Services Codepoint: Default (0) .... .... ..00 .... .... .... .... .... = Explicit Congestion Notification: Not ECN-Capable Transport (0) .... .... .... 1010 1111 1010 0101 1110 = Flow Label: 0xafa5e Payload Length: 32 Next Header: TCP (6) Internet Protocol Version 6, Src: 2002:af5:11a3::, Dst: 2002:af5:11a2:: 0110 .... = Version: 6 .... 0000 0010 .... .... .... .... .... = Traffic Class: 0x02 (DSCP: CS0, ECN: ECT(0)) .... 0000 00.. .... .... .... .... .... = Differentiated Services Codepoint: Default (0) .... .... ..10 .... .... .... .... .... = Explicit Congestion Notification: ECN-Capable Transport codepoint '10' (2) .... .... .... 1010 1111 1010 0101 1110 = Flow Label: 0xafa5e Payload Length: 688 Next Header: TCP (6) Signed-off-by: Dimitris Michailidis Acked-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.

tcp: don't annotate mark on control socket from tcp_v6_send_response()

2017-01-27T15:33:56Z

Unlike ipv4, this control socket is shared by all cpus so we cannot use it as scratchpad area to annotate the mark that we pass to ip6_xmit(). Add a new parameter to ip6_xmit() to indicate the mark. The SCTP socket family caches the flowi6 structure in the sctp_transport structure, so we cannot use to carry the mark unless we later on reset it back, which I discarded since it looks ugly to me.

Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net

2016-12-03T17:29:53Z

Couple conflicts resolved here: 1) In the MACB driver, a bug fix to properly initialize the RX tail pointer properly overlapped with some changes to support variable sized rings. 2) In XGBE we had a "CONFIG_PM" --> "CONFIG_PM_SLEEP" fix overlapping with a reorganization of the driver to support ACPI, OF, as well as PCI variants of the chip. 3) In 'net' we had several probe error path bug fixes to the stmmac driver, meanwhile a lot of this code was cleaned up and reorganized in 'net-next'. 4) The cls_flower classifier obtained a helper function in 'net-next' called __fl_delete() and this overlapped with Daniel Borkamann's bug fix to use RCU for object destruction in 'net'. It also overlapped with Jiri's change to guard the rhashtable_remove_fast() call with a check against tc_skip_sw(). 5) In mlx4, a revert bug fix in 'net' overlapped with some unrelated changes in 'net-next'. 6) In geneve, a stale header pointer after pskb_expand_head() bug fix in 'net' overlapped with a large reorganization of the same code in 'net-next'. Since the 'net-next' code no longer had the bug in question, there was nothing to do other than to simply take the 'net-next' hunks. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

l2tp: lock socket before checking flags in connect()

2016-11-30T19:14:07Z

Socket flags aren't updated atomically, so the socket must be locked while reading the SOCK_ZAPPED flag. This issue exists for both l2tp_ip and l2tp_ip6. For IPv6, this patch also brings error handling for __ip6_datagram_connect() failures. Signed-off-by: Guillaume Nault Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv6: add source address argument for ipv6_push_nfrag_opts

2016-11-10T01:40:06Z

This patch prepares for insertion of SRH through setsockopt(). The new source address argument is used when an HMAC field is present in the SRH, which must be filled. The HMAC signature process requires the source address as input text. Signed-off-by: David Lebrun Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

calipso: Set the calipso socket label to match the secattr.

CALIPSO is a hop-by-hop IPv6 option. A lot of this patch is based on the equivalent CISPO code. The main difference is due to manipulating the options in the hop-by-hop header. Signed-off-by: Huw Davies Signed-off-by: Paul Moore

ipv6: Add ipv6_renew_options_kern() that accepts a kernel mem pointer.

2016-06-27T19:02:50Z

The functionality is equivalent to ipv6_renew_options() except that the newopt pointer is in kernel, not user, memory The kernel memory implementation will be used by the CALIPSO network labelling engine, which needs to be able to set IPv6 hop-by-hop options.

ipv6: add new struct ipcm6_cookie

2016-05-03T20:08:14Z

In the sendmsg function of UDP, raw, ICMP and l2tp sockets, we use local variables like hlimits, tclass, opt and dontfrag and pass them to corresponding functions like ip6_make_skb, ip6_append_data and xxx_push_pending_frames. This is not a good practice and makes it hard to add new parameters. This fix introduces a new struct ipcm6_cookie similar to ipcm_cookie in ipv4 and include the above mentioned variables. And we only pass the pointer to this structure to corresponding functions. This makes it easier to add new parameters in the future and makes the function cleaner.
