* CRED: Wrap current->cred and a few other accessorsDavid Howells2008-11-13

* CRED: Separate task security context from task_structDavid Howells2008-11-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Separate the task security context from task_struct. At this point, the security data is temporarily embedded in the task_struct with two pointers pointing to it. Note that the Alpha arch is altered as it refers to (E)UID and (E)GID in entry.S via asm-offsets.

* CRED: Wrap task credential accesses in the networking subsystemDavid Howells2008-11-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Wrap access to task credentials so that they can be separated more easily from the task_struct during the introduction of COW creds. Change most current->(|e|s|fs)[ug]id to current_(|e|s|fs)[ug]id(). Change some task->e?[ug]id to task_e?[ug]id(). In some places it makes more sense to use RCU directly rather than a convenient wrapper; these will be addressed by later patches.

This bug in copy_to_user_kmaddress() affects only key managers that use native XFRM interface (key managers that use PF_KEY are not affected). For the record, the bug was in the initial changeset I posted which added support for KMADDRESS (13c1d18931ebb5cf407cb348ef2cd6284d68902d 'xfrm: MIGRATE enhancements (draft-ebalard-mext-pfkey-enhanced-migrate)').

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If UDP echo is sent to xinetd/echo-dgram, the UDP reply will be received at the sender. But the SNMP counter of UDP_MIB_INDATAGRAMS will be not increased, UDP6_MIB_INDATAGRAMS will be increased instead. Endpoint A Endpoint B UDP Echo request -----------> (IPv4, Dst port=7) <---------- UDP Echo Reply (IPv4, Src port=7) This bug is come from this patch cb75994ec311b2cd50e5205efdcc0696abd6675d. It do counter UDP[6]_MIB_INDATAGRAMS until udp[v6]_recvmsg. Because xinetd used IPv6 socket to receive UDP messages, thus, when received UDP packet, the UDP6_MIB_INDATAGRAMS will be increased in function udpv6_recvmsg() even if the packet is a IPv4 UDP packet.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I noticed that, under certain conditions, ESRCH can be leaked from the xfrm layer to user space through sys_connect. In particular, this seems to happen reliably when the kernel fails to resolve a template either because the AF_KEY receive buffer being used by racoon is full or because the SA entry we are trying to use is in XFRM_STATE_EXPIRED state. However, since this could be a transient issue it could be argued that EAGAIN would be more appropriate. Besides this error code is not even documented in the man page for sys_connect (as of man-pages 3.07). Signed-off-by: Fernando Luis Vazquez Cao <fernando@oss.ntt.co.jp> Signed-off-by: David S.

| * tcp: Restore ordering of TCP options for the sake of inter-operabilityIlpo Järvinen2008-10-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is not our bug! Sadly some devices cannot cope with the change of TCP option ordering which was a result of the recent rewrite of the option code (not that there was some particular reason steming from the rewrite for the reordering) though any ordering of TCP options is perfectly legal. Thus we restore the original ordering to allow interoperability with/through such broken devices and add some warning about this trap. Since the reordering just happened without any particular reason, this change shouldn't cost us anything. There are already couple of known failure reports (within close proximity of the last release), so the problem might be more wide-spread than a single device. And other reports which may be due to the same problem though the symptoms were less obvious. Analysis of one of the case revealed (with very high probability) that sack capability cannot be negotiated as the first option (SYN never got a response).

| * net: Fix disjunct computation of netdev featuresHerbert Xu2008-10-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | My change commit e2a6b85247aacc52d6ba0d9b37a99b8d1a3e0d83 net: Enable TSO if supported by at least one device didn't do what was intended because the netdev_compute_features function was designed for conjunctions. So what happened was that it would simply take the TSO status of the last constituent device. This patch extends it to support both conjunctions and disjunctions under the new name of netdev_increment_features. It also adds a new function netdev_fix_features which does the sanity checking that usually occurs upon registration. This ensures that the computation doesn't result in an illegal combination since this checking is absent when the change is initiated via ethtool. The two users of netdev_compute_features have been converted. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
| * sctp: Fix to handle SHUTDOWN in SHUTDOWN_RECEIVED stateWei Yongjun2008-10-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Once an endpoint has reached the SHUTDOWN-RECEIVED state, it MUST NOT send a SHUTDOWN in response to a ULP request. The Cumulative TSN Ack of the received SHUTDOWN chunk MUST be processed. This patch fix to process Cumulative TSN Ack of the received SHUTDOWN chunk in SHUTDOWN_RECEIVED state.

| * sctp: Fix to handle SHUTDOWN in SHUTDOWN-PENDING stateWei Yongjun2008-10-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If SHUTDOWN is received in SHUTDOWN-PENDING state, enpoint should enter the SHUTDOWN-RECEIVED state and check the Cumulative TSN Ack field of the SHUTDOWN chunk (RFC 4960 Section 9.2). If the SHUTDOWN chunk can acknowledge all of the send DATA chunks, SHUTDOWN-ACK should be sent. But now endpoint just silently discarded the SHUTDOWN chunk. SHUTDOWN received in SHUTDOWN-PENDING state can happend when the last SACK is lost by network, or the SHUTDOWN chunk can acknowledge all of the received DATA chunks. The packet sequence(SACK lost) is like this: Endpoint A Endpoint B ULP (ESTABLISHED) (ESTABLISHED) <----------- DATA <--- shutdown Enter SHUTDOWN-PENDING state SACK ----lost----> SHUTDOWN(*1) ------------> <----------- SHUTDOWN-ACK (*1) silently discarded now. This patch fix to handle SHUTDOWN in SHUTDOWN-PENDING state as the same as ESTABLISHED state.

New data is send, but after received SACK it will be drop because TSN in SACK is less than the Cumulative TSN, data will be retrans again and again even if correct SACK is received. The packet sequence is like this: Endpoint A Endpoint B ULP (ESTABLISHED) (ESTABLISHED) <----------- DATA (TSN=x-1) <----------- DATA (TSN=x) SHUTDOWN -----------> (Now Cumulative TSN=x+1000) (TSN=x+1000) <----------- DATA (TSN=x+1) SACK -----------> drop the SACK (TSN=x+1) <----------- DATA (TSN=x+1)(retrans) This patch fix this problem by terminating the association and respond to the sender with an ABORT.

| * tcp: should use number of sack blocks instead of -1Ilpo Järvinen2008-10-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While looking for the recent "sack issue" I also read all eff_sacks usage that was played around by some relevant commit. I found out that there's another thing that is asking for a fix (unrelated to the "sack issue" though). This feature has probably very little significance in practice. Opposite direction timeout with bidirectional tcp comes to me as the most likely scenario though there might be other cases as well related to non-data segments we send (e.g., response to the opposite direction segment). Also some ACK losses or option space wasted for other purposes is necessary to prevent the earlier SACK feedback getting to the sender.
