2007-06-13[SCTP] Flag a pmtu change requestVlad Yasevich
Currently, if the socket is owned by the user, we drop the ICMP message. As a result SCTP forgets that path MTU changed and never adjusting it's estimate. This causes all subsequent packets to be fragmented. With this patch, we'll flag the association that it needs to udpate it's estimate based on the already updated routing information.

2007-06-08[NetLabel]: consolidate the struct socket/sock handling to just struct sockPaul Moore
The current NetLabel code has some redundant APIs which allow both "struct socket" and "struct sock" types to be used; this may have made sense at some point but it is wasteful now. Remove the functions that operate on sockets and convert the callers. Not only does this make the code smaller and more consistent but it pushes the locking burden up to the caller which can be more intelligent about the locks. Also, perform the same conversion (socket to sock) on the SELinux/NetLabel glue code where it make sense.

2007-06-07xfrm: Add security check before flushing SAD/SPDJoy Latten
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.

2007-05-24[XFRM]: Allow packet drops during larval state resolution.David S. Miller
The current IPSEC rule resolution behavior we have does not work for a lot of people, even though technically it's an improvement from the -EAGAIN buisness we had before. Right now we'll block until the key manager resolves the route. That works for simple cases, but many folks would rather packets get silently dropped until the key manager resolves the IPSEC rules. We can't tell these folks to "set the socket non-blocking" because they don't have control over the non-block setting of things like the sockets used to resolve DNS deep inside of the resolver libraries in libc. With that in mind I coded up the patch below with some help from Herbert Xu which provides packet-drop behavior during larval state resolution, controllable via sysctl and off by default. This lays the framework to either: 1) Make this default at some point or... 2) Move this logic into xfrm{4,6}_policy.c and implement the ARP-like resolution queue we've all been dreaming of. The idea would be to queue packets to the policy, then once the larval state is resolved by the key manager we re-resolve the route and push the packets out. The packets would timeout if the rule didn't get resolved in a certain amount of time. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2007-05-04[SCTP]: Set assoc_id correctly during INIT collision.Vlad Yasevich
During the INIT/COOKIE-ACK collision cases, it's possible to get into a situation where the association id is not yet set at the time of the user event generation. As a result, user events have an association id set to 0 which will confuse applications. This happens if we hit case B of duplicate cookie processing. In the particular example found and provided by Oscar Isaula <Oscar.Isaula@motorola.com>, flow looks like this: A B ---- INIT-------> (lost) <---------INIT------ ---- INIT-ACK---> <------ Cookie ECHO When the Cookie Echo is received, we end up trying to update the association that was created on A as a result of the (lost) INIT, but that association doesn't have the ID set yet.

2007-04-30[XFRM]: Restrict upper layer information by bundle.Masahide NAKAMURA
On MIPv6 usage, XFRM sub policy is enabled. When main (IPsec) and sub (MIPv6) policy selectors have the same address set but different upper layer information (i.e. protocol number and its ports or type/code), multiple bundle should be created. However, currently we have issue to use the same bundle created for the first time with all flows covered by the case. It is useful for the bundle to have the upper layer information to be restructured correctly if it does not match with the flow. 1. Bundle was created by two policies Selector from another policy is added to xfrm_dst. If the flow does not match the selector, it goes to slow path to restructure new bundle by single policy. 2. Bundle was created by one policy Flow cache is added to xfrm_dst as originated one. If the flow does not match the cache, it goes to slow path to try searching another policy.

2007-04-30[TCP]: Catch skb with S+L bugs earlierIlpo Järvinen
SACKED_ACKED and LOST are mutually exclusive with SACK, thus having their sum larger than packets_out is bug with SACK. Eventually these bugs trigger traps in the tcp_clean_rtx_queue with SACK but it's much more informative to do this here. Non-SACK TCP, however, could get more than packets_out duplicate ACKs which each increment sacked_out, so it makes sense to do this kind of limitting for non-SACK TCP but not for SACK enabled one. Perhaps the author had the opposite in mind but did the logic accidently wrong way around? Anyway, the sacked_out incrementer code for non-SACK already deals this issue before calling sync_left_out so this trapping can be done unconditionally.

Calling smp_call_function can lead to a deadlock if it is called from tasklet context. Fixing this deadlock requires to move the smp_call_function from the tasklet context to a work queue. To do that queue the path pending interrupts to a separate list and move the path cleanup out of iucv_path_sever to iucv_path_connect and iucv_path_pending. This creates a new requirement for iucv_path_connect: it may not be called from tasklet context anymore.

2007-04-26[AF_RXRPC]: Add an interface to the AF_RXRPC module for the AFS filesystem ↵David Howells
to use Add an interface to the AF_RXRPC module so that the AFS filesystem module can more easily make use of the services available. AFS still opens a socket but then uses the action functions in lieu of sendmsg() and registers an intercept functions to grab messages before they're queued on the socket Rx queue. This permits AFS (or whatever) to: (1) Avoid the overhead of using the recvmsg() call. (2) Use different keys directly on individual client calls on one socket rather than having to open a whole slew of sockets, one for each key it might want to use. (3) Avoid calling request_key() at the point of issue of a call or opening of a socket. This is done instead by AFS at the point of open(), unlink() or other VFS operation and the key handed through. (4) Request the use of something other than GFP_KERNEL to allocate memory. Furthermore: (*) The socket buffer markings used by RxRPC are made available for AFS so that it can interpret the cooked RxRPC messages itself. (*) rxgen (un)marshalling abort codes are made available. The following documentation for the kernel interface is added to Documentation/networking/rxrpc.txt: ========================= AF_RXRPC KERNEL INTERFACE ========================= The AF_RXRPC module also provides an interface for use by in-kernel utilities such as the AFS filesystem. This permits such a utility to: (1) Use different keys directly on individual client calls on one socket rather than having to open a whole slew of sockets, one for each key it might want to use. (2) Avoid having RxRPC call request_key() at the point of issue of a call or opening of a socket. Instead the utility is responsible for requesting a key at the appropriate point. AFS, for instance, would do this during VFS operations such as open() or unlink(). The key is then handed through when the call is initiated. (3) Request the use of something other than GFP_KERNEL to allocate memory. (4) Avoid the overhead of using the recvmsg() call. RxRPC messages can be intercepted before they get put into the socket Rx queue and the socket buffers manipulated directly. To use the RxRPC facility, a kernel utility must still open an AF_RXRPC socket, bind an addess as appropriate and listen if it's to be a server socket, but then it passes this to the kernel interface functions. The kernel interface functions are as follows: (*) Begin a new client call. struct rxrpc_call * rxrpc_kernel_begin_call(struct socket *sock, struct sockaddr_rxrpc *srx, struct key *key, unsigned long user_call_ID, gfp_t gfp); This allocates the infrastructure to make a new RxRPC call and assigns call and connection numbers. The call will be made on the UDP port that the socket is bound to. The call will go to the destination address of a connected client socket unless an alternative is supplied (srx is non-NULL). If a key is supplied then this will be used to secure the call instead of the key bound to the socket with the RXRPC_SECURITY_KEY sockopt. Calls secured in this way will still share connections if at all possible. The user_call_ID is equivalent to that supplied to sendmsg() in the control data buffer. It is entirely feasible to use this to point to a kernel data structure. If this function is successful, an opaque reference to the RxRPC call is returned. The caller now holds a reference on this and it must be properly ended. (*) End a client call. void rxrpc_kernel_end_call(struct rxrpc_call *call); This is used to end a previously begun call. The user_call_ID is expunged from AF_RXRPC's knowledge and will not be seen again in association with the specified call. (*) Send data through a call. int rxrpc_kernel_send_data(struct rxrpc_call *call, struct msghdr *msg, size_t len); This is used to supply either the request part of a client call or the reply part of a server call. msg.msg_iovlen and msg.msg_iov specify the data buffers to be used. msg_iov may not be NULL and must point exclusively to in-kernel virtual addresses. msg.msg_flags may be given MSG_MORE if there will be subsequent data sends for this call. The msg must not specify a destination address, control data or any flags other than MSG_MORE. len is the total amount of data to transmit. (*) Abort a call. void rxrpc_kernel_abort_call(struct rxrpc_call *call, u32 abort_code); This is used to abort a call if it's still in an abortable state. The abort code specified will be placed in the ABORT message sent. (*) Intercept received RxRPC messages. typedef void (*rxrpc_interceptor_t)(struct sock *sk, unsigned long user_call_ID, struct sk_buff *skb); void rxrpc_kernel_intercept_rx_messages(struct socket *sock, rxrpc_interceptor_t interceptor); This installs an interceptor function on the specified AF_RXRPC socket. All messages that would otherwise wind up in the socket's Rx queue are then diverted to this function. Note that care must be taken to process the messages in the right order to maintain DATA message sequentiality. The interceptor function itself is provided with the address of the socket and handling the incoming message, the ID assigned by the kernel utility to the call and the socket buffer containing the message. The skb->mark field indicates the type of message: MARK MEANING =============================== ======================================= RXRPC_SKB_MARK_DATA Data message RXRPC_SKB_MARK_FINAL_ACK Final ACK received for an incoming call RXRPC_SKB_MARK_BUSY Client call rejected as server busy RXRPC_SKB_MARK_REMOTE_ABORT Call aborted by peer RXRPC_SKB_MARK_NET_ERROR Network error detected RXRPC_SKB_MARK_LOCAL_ERROR Local error encountered RXRPC_SKB_MARK_NEW_CALL New incoming call awaiting acceptance The remote abort message can be probed with rxrpc_kernel_get_abort_code(). The two error messages can be probed with rxrpc_kernel_get_error_number(). A new call can be accepted with rxrpc_kernel_accept_call(). Data messages can have their contents extracted with the usual bunch of socket buffer manipulation functions. A data message can be determined to be the last one in a sequence with rxrpc_kernel_is_data_last(). When a data message has been used up, rxrpc_kernel_data_delivered() should be called on it.. Non-data messages should be handled to rxrpc_kernel_free_skb() to dispose of. It is possible to get extra refs on all types of message for later freeing, but this may pin the state of a call until the message is finally freed. (*) Accept an incoming call. struct rxrpc_call * rxrpc_kernel_accept_call(struct socket *sock, unsigned long user_call_ID); This is used to accept an incoming call and to assign it a call ID. This function is similar to rxrpc_kernel_begin_call() and calls accepted must be ended in the same way. If this function is successful, an opaque reference to the RxRPC call is returned. The caller now holds a reference on this and it must be properly ended. (*) Reject an incoming call. int rxrpc_kernel_reject_call(struct socket *sock); This is used to reject the first incoming call on the socket's queue with a BUSY message. -ENODATA is returned if there were no incoming calls. Other errors may be returned if the call had been aborted (-ECONNABORTED) or had timed out (-ETIME). (*) Record the delivery of a data message and free it. void rxrpc_kernel_data_delivered(struct sk_buff *skb); This is used to record a data message as having been delivered and to update the ACK state for the call. The socket buffer will be freed. (*) Free a message. void rxrpc_kernel_free_skb(struct sk_buff *skb); This is used to free a non-DATA socket buffer intercepted from an AF_RXRPC socket. (*) Determine if a data message is the last one on a call. bool rxrpc_kernel_is_data_last(struct sk_buff *skb); This is used to determine if a socket buffer holds the last data message to be received for a call (true will be returned if it does, false if not). The data message will be part of the reply on a client call and the request on an incoming call. In the latter case there will be more messages, but in the former case there will not. (*) Get the abort code from an abort message. u32 rxrpc_kernel_get_abort_code(struct sk_buff *skb); This is used to extract the abort code from a remote abort message. (*) Get the error number from a local or network error message. int rxrpc_kernel_get_error_number(struct sk_buff *skb); This is used to extract the error number from a message indicating either a local error occurred or a network error occurred.

2007-04-26[AF_RXRPC]: Provide secure RxRPC sockets for use by userspace and kernel bothDavid Howells
Provide AF_RXRPC sockets that can be used to talk to AFS servers, or serve answers to AFS clients. KerberosIV security is fully supported. The patches and some example test programs can be found in: http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/rxrpc/ This will eventually replace the old implementation of kernel-only RxRPC currently resident in net/rxrpc/.

2007-04-26[XFRM]: Export SAD info.Jamal Hadi Salim
On a system with a lot of SAs, counting SAD entries chews useful CPU time since you need to dump the whole SAD to user space; i.e something like ip xfrm state ls | grep -i src | wc -l I have seen taking literally minutes on a 40K SAs when the system is swapping. With this patch, some of the SAD info (that was already being tracked) is exposed to user space. i.e you do: ip xfrm state count And you get the count; you can also pass -s to the command line and get the hash info.

2007-04-25[IPV6]: Consolidate common SNMP codeHerbert Xu
This patch moves the non-proc SNMP code into addrconf.c and reuses IPv4 SNMP code where applicable. As a result we can skip proc.o if /proc is disabled. Note that I've made a number of functions static since they're only used by addrconf.c for now. If they ever get used elsewhere we can always remove the static.

2007-04-25[IPV4]: Consolidate common SNMP codeHerbert Xu
This patch moves the SNMP code shared between IPv4/IPv6 from proc.c into net/ipv4/af_inet.c. This makes sense because these functions aren't specific to /proc. As a result we can again skip proc.o if /proc is disabled. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Acked-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
