* tcp: Reject invalid ack_seq to Fast Open socketsJerry Chu2012-10-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A packet with an invalid ack_seq may cause a TCP Fast Open socket to switch to the unexpected TCP_CLOSING state, triggering a BUG_ON kernel panic. When a FIN packet with an invalid ack_seq# arrives at a socket in the TCP_FIN_WAIT1 state, rather than discarding the packet, the current code will accept the FIN, causing state transition to TCP_CLOSING. This may be a small deviation from RFC793, which seems to say that the packet should be dropped. Unfortunately I did not expect this case for Fast Open hence it will trigger a BUG_ON panic. It turns out there is really nothing bad about a TFO socket going into TCP_CLOSING state so I could just remove the BUG_ON statements. But after some thought I think it's better to treat this case like TCP_SYN_RECV and return a RST to the confused peer who caused the unacceptable ack_seq to be generated in the first place.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tcp_ioctl() tries to take into account if tcp socket received a FIN to report correct number bytes in receive queue. But its flaky because if the application ate the last skb, we return 1 instead of 0. Correct way to detect that FIN was received is to test SOCK_DONE.

* ipv4: Fix flushing of cached routing informationsSteffen Klassert2012-10-18
| | | | | | | | | | | Currently we can not flush cached pmtu/redirect informations via the ipv4_sysctl_rtcache_flush sysctl. We need to check the rt_genid of the old route and reset the nh exeption if the old route is expired when we bind a new route to a nh exeption.

* tcp: resets are misroutedAlexey Kuznetsov2012-10-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After commit e2446eaa ("tcp_v4_send_reset: binding oif to iif in no sock case").. tcp resets are always lost, when routing is asymmetric. Yes, backing out that patch will result in misrouting of resets for dead connections which used interface binding when were alive, but we actually cannot do anything here. What's died that's died and correct handling normal unbound connections is obviously a priority. Comment to comment: > This has few benefits: > 1. tcp_v6_send_reset already did that. It was done to route resets for IPv6 link local addresses. It was a mistake to do so for global addresses. The patch fixes this as well. Actually, the problem appears to be even more serious than guaranteed loss of resets. As reported by Sergey Soloviev <sol@eqv.ru>, those misrouted resets create a lot of arp traffic and huge amount of unresolved arp entires putting down to knees NAT firewalls which use asymmetric routing.

* ipv4: Add FLOWI_FLAG_KNOWN_NHJulian Anastasov2012-10-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add flag to request that output route should be returned with known rt_gateway, in case we want to use it as nexthop for neighbour resolving. The returned route can be cached as follows: - in NH exception: because the cached routes are not shared with other destinations - in FIB NH: when using gateway because all destinations for NH share same gateway As last option, to return rt_gateway!=0 we have to set DST_NOCACHE.

* ipv4: introduce rt_uses_gatewayJulian Anastasov2012-10-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add new flag to remember when route is via gateway. We will use it to allow rt_gateway to contain address of directly connected host for the cases when DST_NOCACHE is used or when the NH exception caches per-destination route without DST_NOCACHE flag, i.e. when routes are not used for other destinations. By this way we force the neighbour resolving to work with the routed destination but we can use different address in the packet, feature needed for IPVS-DR where original packet for virtual IP is routed via route to real IP.

* ipv4: fix sending of redirectsJulian Anastasov2012-10-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After "Cache input routes in fib_info nexthops" (commit d2d68ba9fe) and "Elide fib_validate_source() completely when possible" (commit 7a9bc9b81a) we can not send ICMP redirects. It seems we should not cache the RTCF_DOREDIRECT flag in nh_rth_input because the same fib_info can be used for traffic that is not redirected, eg. from other input devices or from sources that are not in same subnet. As result, we have to disable the caching of RTCF_DOREDIRECT flag and to force source validation for the case when forwarding traffic to the input device. If traffic comes from directly connected source we allow redirection as it was done before both changes. Avoid setting RTCF_DOREDIRECT if IN_DEV_TX_REDIRECTS is disabled, this can avoid source address validation and to help caching the routes. After the change "Adjust semantics of rt->rt_gateway" (commit f8126f1d51) we should make sure our ICMP_REDIR_HOST messages contain daddr instead of 0.0.0.0 when target is directly connected.

| * ipv4: add a fib_type to fib_infoEric Dumazet2012-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit d2d68ba9fe8 (ipv4: Cache input routes in fib_info nexthops.) introduced a regression for forwarding. This was hard to reproduce but the symptom was that packets were delivered to local host instead of being forwarded. David suggested to add fib_type to fib_info so that we dont inadvertently share same fib_info for different purposes. With help from Julian Anastasov who provided very helpful hints, reproduced here : <quote> Can it be a problem related to fib_info reuse from different routes. For example, when local IP address is created for subnet we have: broadcast 192.168.0.255 dev DEV proto kernel scope link src 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.0/24 dev DEV proto kernel scope link src 192.168.0.1 local 192.168.0.1 dev DEV proto kernel scope host src 192.168.0.1 The "dev DEV proto kernel scope link src 192.168.0.1" is a reused fib_info structure where we put cached routes. The result can be same fib_info for 192.168.0.255 and 192.168.0.0/24. RTN_BROADCAST is cached only for input routes. Incoming broadcast to 192.168.0.255 can be cached and can cause problems for traffic forwarded to 192.168.0.0/24. So, this patch should solve the problem because it separates the broadcast from unicast traffic. And the ip_route_input_slow caching will work for local and broadcast input routes (above routes 1 and 3) just because they differ in scope and use different fib_info. </quote> Many thanks to Chris Clayton for his patience and help.

This benefits processes that have very many mostly idle sockets, which is quite common. From Eric Dumazet. 10) Use up to 32K for page fragment allocations, with fallbacks to smaller sizes when higher order page allocations fail. Benefits are a) less segments for driver to process b) less calls to page allocator c) less waste of space. From Eric Dumazet. 11) Allow GRO to be used on GRE tunnels, from Eric Dumazet. 12) VXLAN device driver, one way to handle VLAN issues such as the limitation of 4096 VLAN IDs yet still have some level of isolation.

Section 4.2. Default Tunnel Egress Behaviour. o If the inner ECN field is Not-ECT, the decapsulator MUST NOT propagate any other ECN codepoint onwards. This is because the inner Not-ECT marking is set by transports that rely on dropped packets as an indication of congestion and would not understand or respond to any other ECN codepoint [RFC4774]. Specifically: * If the inner ECN field is Not-ECT and the outer ECN field is CE, the decapsulator MUST drop the packet. * If the inner ECN field is Not-ECT and the outer ECN field is Not-ECT, ECT(0), or ECT(1), the decapsulator MUST forward the outgoing packet with the ECN field cleared to Not-ECT. This patch moves the ECN decap logic out of the individual tunnels into a common place. It also adds logging to allow detecting broken systems that set ECN bits incorrectly when tunneling (or an intermediate router might be changing the header). Overloads rx_frame_error to keep track of ECN related error. Thanks to Chris Wright who caught this while reviewing the new VXLAN tunnel.

Zero is a perfectly valid value for key, and the tunnel should match packets with no key only with tunnels created without key, and vice versa.

I.e the sender sent key of zero, but tunnel was defined without key. Note: using gre key 0 requires iproute2 utilities v3.2 or later. The original utility code was broken as well.

This page is used to build fragments for skbs. Its done to increase probability of coalescing small write() into single segments in skbs still in write queue (not yet sent) But it wastes a lot of memory for applications handling many mostly idle sockets, since each socket holds one page in sk->sk_sndmsg_page Its also quite inefficient to build TSO 64KB packets, because we need about 16 pages per skb on arches where PAGE_SIZE = 4096, so we hit page allocator more than wanted. This patch adds a per task frag allocator and uses bigger pages, if available. An automatic fallback is done in case of memory pressure. (up to 32768 bytes per frag, thats order-3 pages on x86) This increases TCP stream performance by 20% on loopback device, but also benefits on other network devices, since 8x less frags are mapped on transmit and unmapped on tx completion. Alexander Duyck mentioned a probable performance win on systems with IOMMU enabled. Its possible some SG enabled hardware cant cope with bigger fragments, but their ndo_start_xmit() should already handle this, splitting a fragment in sub fragments, since some arches have PAGE_SIZE=65536 Successfully tested on various ethernet devices.

You can notice that this batch contains a couple of fixes that may go to 3.6-rc but I don't consider them critical to push them: * The ipset fix for the /0 cidr case, which is triggered with one inconsistent command line invocation of ipset. * The nfnetlink_queue maximum packet length supported since it requires the new NFQA_CAP_LEN attribute to provide a full workaround for the described problem. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

The story here is similar to that of SYNACK RTT measurements. Previously we were always doing this in tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock(). However, for TCP Fast Open connections tcp_v4_conn_req_fastopen() calls tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock() at the time we receive the SYN. So for TFO we must copy the final SYNACK retransmit count in tcp_rcv_state_process(). Note that copying over the SYNACK retransmit count will give us the correct count since, as is mentioned in a comment in tcp_retransmit_timer(), before we receive an ACK for our SYN-ACK a TFO passive connection does not retransmit anything else (e.g., data or FIN segments).

This is needed to parallel all the action that happens for a non-TFO connection, where for an ACK that is attempting to complete the 3WHS we call both tcp_check_req() and tcp_validate_incoming(). For example, upon receiving the ACK that completes the 3WHS, we need to call tcp_fast_parse_options() and update ts_recent based on the incoming timestamp value in the ACK. One symptom of the problem with the previous code was that for passive TFO connections using TCP timestamps, the outgoing TS ecr values ignored the incoming TS val value on the ACK that completed the 3WHS.

| * | | tcp: TCP Fast Open Server - note timestamps and retransmits for SYNACK RTTNeal Cardwell2012-09-22

The result was that (a) for TFO connections using timestamps we used an incorrect baseline SYNACK send time (tcp_time_stamp of SYNACK send instead of rcv_tsecr), and (b) for TFO connections that do not have TCP timestamps but retransmit the SYNACK we took a SYNACK RTT sample when we should not take a sample. This fix merely moves the snt_synack update logic a bit earlier in the function, so that connections using TCP Fast Open will properly do these updates when the ACK for the SYNACK arrives. Moving this snt_synack update logic means that with TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT enabled we do a few instructions of wasted work on each bare ACK, but that seems OK.

Previously we were always taking an RTT sample in tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock(). However, for TCP Fast Open connections tcp_v4_conn_req_fastopen() calls tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock() at the time we receive the SYN. So for TFO we must wait until tcp_rcv_state_process() to take the RTT sample. To fix this, we wait until after TFO calls tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock() before we set the snt_synack timestamp, since tcp_synack_rtt_meas() already ensures that we only take a SYNACK RTT sample if snt_synack is non-zero. To be careful, we only take a snt_synack timestamp when a SYNACK transmit or retransmit succeeds. Signed-off-by: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| |/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On small systems (e.g. embedded ones) IP addresses are often configured by bootloaders and get assigned to kernel via parameter "ip=". If set to "ip=dhcp", even nameserver entries from DHCP daemons are handled. These entries exported in /proc/net/pnp are commonly linked by /etc/resolv.conf. To configure nameservers for networks without DHCP, this patch adds option <dns0-ip> and <dns1-ip> to kernel-parameter 'ip='.
