* xfrm: Add security check before flushing SAD/SPDJoy Latten2007-06-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we check for permission before deleting entries from SAD and SPD, (see security_xfrm_policy_delete() security_xfrm_state_delete()) However we are not checking for authorization when flushing the SPD and the SAD completely. It was perhaps missed in the original security hooks patch. This patch adds a security check when flushing entries from the SAD and SPD. It runs the entire database and checks each entry for a denial. If the process attempting the flush is unable to remove all of the entries a denial is logged the the flush function returns an error without removing anything. This is particularly useful when a process may need to create or delete its own xfrm entries used for things like labeled networking but that same process should not be able to delete other entries or flush the entire database.

* [NET]: Avoid duplicate netlink notification when changing link stateThomas Graf2007-06-07
| | | | | | | | | | | When changing the link state from userspace not affecting any other flags. Two duplicate notification are being sent, once as action in the NETDEV_UP/NETDEV_DOWN notification chain and a second time when comparing old and new device flags after the change has been completed. Although harmless, the duplicates should be avoided. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* [AF_UNIX]: Fix stream recvmsg() race.Miklos Szeredi2007-06-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A recv() on an AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM socket can race with a send()+close() on the peer, causing recv() to return zero, even though the sent data should be received. This happens if the send() and the close() is performed between skb_dequeue() and checking sk->sk_shutdown in unix_stream_recvmsg(): process A skb_dequeue() returns NULL, there's no data in the socket queue process B new data is inserted onto the queue by unix_stream_sendmsg() process B sk->sk_shutdown is set to SHUTDOWN_MASK by unix_release_sock() process A sk->sk_shutdown is checked, unix_release_sock() returns zero I'm surprised nobody noticed this, it's not hard to trigger. Maybe it's just (un)luck with the timing. It's possible to work around this bug in userspace, by retrying the recv() once in case of a zero return value.

* [NETFILTER]: ip_tables: fix compat related crashDmitry Mishin2007-06-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | check_compat_entry_size_and_hooks iterates over the matches and calls compat_check_calc_match, which loads the match and calculates the compat offsets, but unlike the non-compat version, doesn't call ->checkentry yet. On error however it calls cleanup_matches, which in turn calls ->destroy, which can result in crashes if the destroy function (validly) expects to only get called after the checkentry function. Add a compat_release_match function that only drops the module reference on error and rename compat_check_calc_match to compat_find_calc_match to reflect the fact that it doesn't call the checkentry function.

* [NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: fix helper module unload racesPatrick McHarrdy2007-06-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a helper module is unloaded all conntracks refering to it have their helper pointer NULLed out, leading to lots of races. In most places this can be fixed by proper use of RCU (they do already check for != NULL, but in a racy way), additionally nf_conntrack_expect_related needs to bail out when no helper is present. Also remove two paranoid BUG_ONs in nf_conntrack_proto_gre that are racy and not worth fixing. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHarrdy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* [IPV4]: Restore old behaviour of default config valuesHerbert Xu2007-06-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously inet devices were only constructed when addresses are added (or rarely in ipmr). Therefore the default config values they get are the ones at the time of these operations. Now that we're creating inet devices earlier, this changes the behaviour of default config values in an incompatible way (see bug #8519). This patch creates a compromise by setting the default values at the same point as before but only for those that have not been explicitly set by the user since the inet device's creation.

* [IPV4]: Add default config support after inetdev_initHerbert Xu2007-06-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously once inetdev_init has been called on a device any changes made to ipv4_devconf_dflt would have no effect on that device's configuration. This creates a problem since we have moved the point where inetdev_init is called from when an address is added to where the device is registered. This patch is the first half of a set that tries to mimic the old behaviour while still calling inetdev_init. It propagates any changes to ipv4_devconf_dflt to those devices that have not had the corresponding attribute set. The next patch will forcibly set all values at the point where inetdev_init was previously called. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [NET] gso: Fix GSO feature mask in sk_setup_capsHerbert Xu2007-06-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This isn't a bug just yet as only TCP uses sk_setup_caps for GSO. However, if and when UDP or something else starts using it this is likely to cause a problem if we forget to add software emulation for it at the same time. The problem is that right now we translate GSO emulation to the bitmask NETIF_F_GSO_MASK, which includes every protocol, even ones that we cannot emulate. This patch makes it provide only the ones that we can emulate. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* [TCP]: Use default 32768-61000 outgoing port range in all cases.Mark Glines2007-06-03

* [AF_UNIX]: Fix datagram connect race causing an OOPS.David S. Miller2007-06-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Based upon an excellent bug report and initial patch by Frederik Deweerdt. The UNIX datagram connect code blindly dereferences other->sk_socket via the call down to the security_unix_may_send() function. Without locking 'other' that pointer can go NULL via unix_release_sock() which does sock_orphan() which also marks the socket SOCK_DEAD. So we have to lock both 'sk' and 'other' yet avoid all kinds of potential deadlocks (connect to self is OK for datagram sockets and it is possible for two datagram sockets to perform a simultaneous connect to each other). So what we do is have a "double lock" function similar to how we handle this situation in other areas of the kernel. We take the lock of the socket pointer with the smallest address first in order to avoid ABBA style deadlocks. Once we have them both locked, we check to see if SOCK_DEAD is set for 'other' and if so, drop everything and retry the lookup. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [AF_UNIX]: Make socket locking much less confusing.David S. Miller2007-06-03

* VLAN: kill_vid is only useful for VLAN filtering devicesStephen Hemminger2007-06-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The interface for network device VLAN extension was confusing. The kill_vid function is only really useful for devices that do hardware filtering. Devices that only do VLAN receiption without filtering were being forced to provide the hook, and there were bugs in those devices. Many drivers had kill_vid routine that called vlan_group_set_device, with NULL, but that is done already.

However, when the textual representation is of in the form ip:port, e.g. 192.168.1.1:5060, and 'delim' is set to -1, the function bails out with an error when reading the colon. It makes sense to allow the colon as a delimiting character without explicitly having to set it through the 'delim' variable as there can be no ambiguity in the point where the ip address is completely parsed. This function is indeed called from nf_conntrack_sip.c in this way to parse textual ip:port combinations which fails due to the reason stated above.
