2008-01-28[NET]: Multiple namespaces in the all dst_ifdown routines.Denis V. Lunev

2008-01-28[UDP]: Only increment counter on first peek/recvHerbert Xu
The previous move of the the UDP inDatagrams counter caused each peek of the same packet to be counted separately. This may be undesirable. This patch fixes this by adding a bit to sk_buff to record whether this packet has already been seen through skb_recv_datagram. We then only increment the counter when the packet is seen for the first time. The only dodgy part is the fact that skb_recv_datagram doesn't have a good way of returning this new bit of information. So I've added a new function __skb_recv_datagram that does return this and made skb_recv_datagram a wrapper around it. The plan is to eventually replace all uses of skb_recv_datagram with this new function at which time it can be renamed its proper name.

2008-01-28[UDP]: Avoid repeated counting of checksum errors due to peekingHerbert Xu
Currently it is possible for two processes to peek on the same socket and end up incrementing the error counter twice for the same packet. This patch fixes it by making skb_kill_datagram return whether it succeeded in unlinking the packet and only incrementing the counter if it did.

2008-01-28[NET]: Isolate the net/core/ sysctl tablePavel Emelyanov
Using ctl paths we can put all the stuff, related to net/core/ sysctl table, into one file and remove all the references on it.

2008-01-28[NEIGH]: Use the ctl paths to create neighbours sysctlsPavel Emelyanov
The appropriate path is prepared right inside this function. It is prepared similar to how the ctl tables were. Since the path is modified, it is put on the stack, to avoid possible races with multiple calls to neigh_sysctl_register() : it is called by protocols and I didn't find any protection in this case. Did I overlooked the rtnl lock?. The stack growth of the neigh_sysctl_register() is 40 bytes. I believe this is OK, since this is not that much and this function is not called with the deep stack (device/protocols register). The device's name is stored on the template to free it later. This will help with the net namespaces, as each namespace should have its own set of these ctls. Besides, this saves ~350 bytes from the neigh template :) Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-01-28[NEIGH]: Cleanup the neigh_sysctl_registerPavel Emelyanov
This mainly removes the err variable, as this call always return the same error code (-ENOBUFS). Besides, I moved the call to kmalloc() from the *t declaration into the code (this is confusing when a variable is initialized with the result of some call) and removed unneeded comment near the error path.

Currently this size is 16, but as the comment says this is so only because all the chains (except one) has the length 1.

2008-01-28[NET]: Name magic constants in sock_wake_async()Pavel Emelyanov
The sock_wake_async() performs a bit different actions depending on "how" argument. Unfortunately this argument ony has numerical magic values. I propose to give names to their constants to help people reading this function callers understand what's going on without looking into this function all the time. I suppose this is 2.6.25 material, but if it's not (or the naming seems poor/bad/awful), I can rework it against the current net-2.6 tree.

2008-01-28[NET]: Compact sk_stream_mem_schedule() codePavel Emelyanov
This function references sk->sk_prot->xxx for many times. It turned out, that there's so many code in it, that gcc cannot always optimize access to sk->sk_prot's fields. After saving the sk->sk_prot on the stack and comparing disassembled code, it turned out that the function became ~10 bytes shorter and made less dereferences (on i386 and x86_64). Stack consumption didn't grow. Besides, this patch drives most of this function into the 80 columns limit.

2008-01-28[NET]: Make netns cleanup to run in a separate queueBenjamin Thery
This patch adds a separate workqueue for cleaning up a network namespace. If we use the keventd workqueue to execute cleanup_net(), there is a problem to unregister devices in IPv6. Indeed the code that cleans up also schedule work in keventd: as long as cleanup_net() hasn't return, dst_gc_task() cannot run and as long as dst_gc_task() has not run, there are still some references pending on the net devices and cleanup_net() can not unregister and exit the keventd workqueue.

2008-01-28[NET]: Make the netlink methods in rtnetlink handle multiple network namespacesEric W. Biederman
After the previous prep work this just consists of removing checks limiting the code to work in the initial network namespace, and updating rtmsg_ifinfo so we can generate events for devices in something other then the initial network namespace. Referring to network other network devices like the IFLA_LINK and IFLA_MASTER attributes do, gets interesting if those network devices happen to be in other network namespaces. Currently ifindex numbers are allocated globally so I have taken the path of least resistance and not still report the information even though the devices they are talking about are invisible. If applications start getting confused or when ifindex numbers become local to the network namespace we may need to do something different in the future. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

Besides, patch two places in sys_setsockopt() that repeat this helper functionality manually.

2008-01-28[NET]: Eliminate duplicate copies of dst_discardHerbert Xu
We have a number of copies of dst_discard scattered around the place which all do the same thing, namely free a packet on the input or output paths. This patch deletes all of them except dst_discard and points all the users to it. The only non-trivial bit is decnet where it returns an error. However, conceptually this is identical to the blackhole functions used in IPv4 and IPv6 which do not return errors. So they should either all return errors or all return zero. For now I've stuck with the majority and picked zero as the return value. It doesn't really matter in practice since few if any driver would react differently depending on a zero return value or NET_RX_DROP.

Replace all lock_cpu_hotplug/unlock_cpu_hotplug from the kernel and use get_online_cpus and put_online_cpus instead as it highlights the refcount semantics in these operations. The new API guarantees protection against the cpu-hotplug operation, but it doesn't guarantee serialized access to any of the local data structures. Hence the changes needs to be reviewed.

2008-01-20[NET]: rtnl_link: fix use-after-freePatrick McHardy
When unregistering the rtnl_link_ops, all existing devices using the ops are destroyed. With nested devices this may lead to a use-after-free despite the use of for_each_netdev_safe() in case the upper device is next in the device list and is destroyed by the NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier. The easy fix is to restart scanning the device list after removing a device. Alternatively we could add new devices to the front of the list to avoid having dependant devices follow the device they depend on. A third option would be to only restart scanning if dev->iflink of the next device matches dev->ifindex of the current one. For now this seems like the safest solution. With this patch, the veth rtnl_link_ops unregistration can use rtnl_link_unregister() directly since it now also handles destruction of multiple devices at once.

2008-01-10[NEIGH]: Fix race between neigh_parms_release and neightbl_fill_parmsPavel Emelyanov
The neightbl_fill_parms() is called under the write-locked tbl->lock and accesses the parms->dev. The negh_parm_release() calls the dev_put(parms->dev) without this lock. This creates a tiny race window on which the parms contains potentially stale dev pointer. To fix this race it's enough to move the dev_put() upper under the tbl->lock, but note, that the parms are held by neighbors and thus can live after the neigh_parms_release() is called, so we still can have a parm with bad dev pointer. I didn't find where the neigh->parms->dev is accessed, but still think that putting the dev is to be done in a place, where the parms are really freed. Am I right with that?

2008-01-08[NET]: Clone the sk_buff 'iif' field in __skb_clone()Paul Moore
Both NetLabel and SELinux (other LSMs may grow to use it as well) rely on the 'iif' field to determine the receiving network interface of inbound packets. Unfortunately, at present this field is not preserved across a skb clone operation which can lead to garbage values if the cloned skb is sent back through the network stack. This patch corrects this problem by properly copying the 'iif' field in __skb_clone() and removing the 'iif' field assignment from skb_act_clone() since it is no longer needed. Also, while we are here, put the assignments in the same order as the offsets to reduce cacheline bounces. Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <paul.moore@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2007-12-20[NET]: Fix function put_cmsg() which may cause usr application memory overflowWei Yongjun
When used function put_cmsg() to copy kernel information to user application memory, if the memory length given by user application is not enough, by the bad length calculate of msg.msg_controllen, put_cmsg() function may cause the msg.msg_controllen to be a large value, such as 0xFFFFFFF0, so the following put_cmsg() can also write data to usr application memory even usr has no valid memory to store this. This may cause usr application memory overflow. int put_cmsg(struct msghdr * msg, int level, int type, int len, void *data) { struct cmsghdr __user *cm = (__force struct cmsghdr __user *)msg->msg_control; struct cmsghdr cmhdr; int cmlen = CMSG_LEN(len); ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ int err; if (MSG_CMSG_COMPAT & msg->msg_flags) return put_cmsg_compat(msg, level, type, len, data); if (cm==NULL || msg->msg_controllen < sizeof(*cm)) { msg->msg_flags |= MSG_CTRUNC; return 0; /* XXX: return error? check spec. */ } if (msg->msg_controllen < cmlen) { ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ msg->msg_flags |= MSG_CTRUNC; cmlen = msg->msg_controllen; } cmhdr.cmsg_level = level; cmhdr.cmsg_type = type; cmhdr.cmsg_len = cmlen; err = -EFAULT; if (copy_to_user(cm, &cmhdr, sizeof cmhdr)) goto out; if (copy_to_user(CMSG_DATA(cm), data, cmlen - sizeof(struct cmsghdr))) goto out; cmlen = CMSG_SPACE(len); ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If MSG_CTRUNC flags is set, msg->msg_controllen is less than CMSG_SPACE(len), "msg->msg_controllen -= cmlen" will cause unsinged int type msg->msg_controllen to be a large value. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ msg->msg_control += cmlen; msg->msg_controllen -= cmlen; ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ err = 0; out: return err; } The same promble exists in put_cmsg_compat().

2007-11-15[INET]: Fix potential kfree on vmalloc-ed area of request_sock_queuePavel Emelyanov
The request_sock_queue's listen_opt is either vmalloc-ed or kmalloc-ed depending on the number of table entries. Thus it is expected to be handled properly on free, which is done in the reqsk_queue_destroy(). However the error path in inet_csk_listen_start() calls the lite version of reqsk_queue_destroy, called __reqsk_queue_destroy, which calls the kfree unconditionally. Fix this and move the __reqsk_queue_destroy into a .c file as it looks too big to be inline. As David also noticed, this is an error recovery path only, so no locking is required and the lopt is known to be not NULL. reqsk_queue_yank_listen_sk is also now only used in net/core/request_sock.c so we should move it there too.

Commit fcc5a03ac42564e9e255c1134dda47442289e466: [NET]: Allow netdev REGISTER/CHANGENAME events to fail makes the register_netdevice_notifier() handle the error from the NETDEV_REGISTER event, sent to the registering block. The bad news is that in this case the notifier block is not removed from the list, but the error is returned to the caller. In case the caller is in module init function and handles this error this can abort the module loading. The notifier block will be then removed from the kernel, but will be left in the list. Oops :( I think that the notifier block should be removed from the chain in case of error, regardless whether this error is handled by the caller or not. In the worst case (the error is _not_ handled) module will not receive the events any longer.
