2011-03-09ipv6: Don't create clones of host routes.David S. Miller
Addresses https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29252 Addresses https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30462 In commit d80bc0fd262ef840ed4e82593ad6416fa1ba3fc4 ("ipv6: Always clone offlink routes.") we forced the kernel to always clone offlink routes. The reason we do that is to make sure we never bind an inetpeer to a prefixed route. The logic turned on here has existed in the tree for many years, but was always off due to a protecting CPP define. So perhaps it's no surprise that there is a logic bug here. The problem is that we canot clone a route that is already a host route (ie. has DST_HOST set). Because if we do, an identical entry already exists in the routing tree and therefore the ip6_rt_ins() call is going to fail. This sets off a series of failures and high cpu usage, because when ip6_rt_ins() fails we loop retrying this operation a few times in order to handle a race between two threads trying to clone and insert the same host route at the same time. Fix this by simply using the route as-is when DST_HOST is set. Reported-by: slash@ac.auone-net.jp Reported-by: Ernst Sjöstrand <ernstp@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-03-10net: don't allow CAP_NET_ADMIN to load non-netdev kernel modulesVasiliy Kulikov
Since a8f80e8ff94ecba629542d9b4b5f5a8ee3eb565c any process with CAP_NET_ADMIN may load any module from /lib/modules/. This doesn't mean that CAP_NET_ADMIN is a superset of CAP_SYS_MODULE as modules are limited to /lib/modules/**. However, CAP_NET_ADMIN capability shouldn't allow anybody load any module not related to networking. This patch restricts an ability of autoloading modules to netdev modules with explicit aliases. This fixes CVE-2011-1019. Arnd Bergmann suggested to leave untouched the old pre-v2.6.32 behavior of loading netdev modules by name (without any prefix) for processes with CAP_SYS_MODULE to maintain the compatibility with network scripts that use autoloading netdev modules by aliases like "eth0", "wlan0". Currently there are only three users of the feature in the upstream kernel: ipip, ip_gre and sit. root@albatros:~# capsh --drop=$(seq -s, 0 11),$(seq -s, 13 34) -- root@albatros:~# grep Cap /proc/$$/status CapInh: 0000000000000000 CapPrm: fffffff800001000 CapEff: fffffff800001000 CapBnd: fffffff800001000 root@albatros:~# modprobe xfs FATAL: Error inserting xfs (/lib/modules/2.6.38-rc6-00001-g2bf4ca3/kernel/fs/xfs/xfs.ko): Operation not permitted root@albatros:~# lsmod | grep xfs root@albatros:~# ifconfig xfs xfs: error fetching interface information: Device not found root@albatros:~# lsmod | grep xfs root@albatros:~# lsmod | grep sit root@albatros:~# ifconfig sit sit: error fetching interface information: Device not found root@albatros:~# lsmod | grep sit root@albatros:~# ifconfig sit0 sit0 Link encap:IPv6-in-IPv4 NOARP MTU:1480 Metric:1 root@albatros:~# lsmod | grep sit sit 10457 0 tunnel4 2957 1 sit For CAP_SYS_MODULE module loading is still relaxed: root@albatros:~# grep Cap /proc/$$/status CapInh: 0000000000000000 CapPrm: ffffffffffffffff CapEff: ffffffffffffffff CapBnd: ffffffffffffffff root@albatros:~# ifconfig xfs xfs: error fetching interface information: Device not found root@albatros:~# lsmod | grep xfs xfs 745319 0 Reference: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/2/24/203 Signed-off-by: Vasiliy Kulikov <segoon@openwall.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Tokarev <mjt@tls.msk.ru> Acked-by: David S.

2011-01-31net: Fix ipv6 neighbour unregister_sysctl_table warningEric W. Biederman
In my testing of 2.6.37 I was occassionally getting a warning about sysctl table entries being unregistered in the wrong order. Digging in it turns out this dates back to the last great sysctl reorg done where Al Viro introduced the requirement that sysctl directories needed to be created before and destroyed after the files in them. It turns out that in that great reorg /proc/sys/net/ipv6/neigh was overlooked. So this patch fixes that oversight and makes an annoying warning message go away. >------------[ cut here ]------------ >WARNING: at kernel/sysctl.c:1992 unregister_sysctl_table+0x134/0x164() >Pid: 23951, comm: kworker/u:3 Not tainted 2.6.37-350888.2010AroraKernelBeta.fc14.x86_64 #1 >Call Trace: > [<ffffffff8103e034>] warn_slowpath_common+0x80/0x98 > [<ffffffff8103e061>] warn_slowpath_null+0x15/0x17 > [<ffffffff810452f8>] unregister_sysctl_table+0x134/0x164 > [<ffffffff810e7834>] ? kfree+0xc4/0xd1 > [<ffffffff813439b2>] neigh_sysctl_unregister+0x22/0x3a > [<ffffffffa02cd14e>] addrconf_ifdown+0x33f/0x37b [ipv6] > [<ffffffff81331ec2>] ? skb_dequeue+0x5f/0x6b > [<ffffffffa02ce4a5>] addrconf_notify+0x69b/0x75c [ipv6] > [<ffffffffa02eb953>] ? ip6mr_device_event+0x98/0xa9 [ipv6] > [<ffffffff813d2413>] notifier_call_chain+0x32/0x5e > [<ffffffff8105bdea>] raw_notifier_call_chain+0xf/0x11 > [<ffffffff8133cdac>] call_netdevice_notifiers+0x45/0x4a > [<ffffffff8133d2b0>] rollback_registered_many+0x118/0x201 > [<ffffffff8133d3af>] unregister_netdevice_many+0x16/0x6d > [<ffffffff8133d571>] default_device_exit_batch+0xa4/0xb8 > [<ffffffff81337c42>] ? cleanup_net+0x0/0x194 > [<ffffffff81337a2a>] ops_exit_list+0x4e/0x56 > [<ffffffff81337d36>] cleanup_net+0xf4/0x194 > [<ffffffff81053318>] process_one_work+0x187/0x280 > [<ffffffff8105441b>] worker_thread+0xff/0x19f > [<ffffffff8105431c>] ? worker_thread+0x0/0x19f > [<ffffffff8105776d>] kthread+0x7d/0x85 > [<ffffffff81003824>] kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 > [<ffffffff810576f0>] ? kthread+0x0/0x85 > [<ffffffff81003820>] ? kernel_thread_helper+0x0/0x10 >---[ end trace 8a7e9310b35e9486 ]--- Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2011-01-31net: Add default_mtu() methods to blackhole dst_opsRoland Dreier
When an IPSEC SA is still being set up, __xfrm_lookup() will return -EREMOTE and so ip_route_output_flow() will return a blackhole route. This can happen in a sndmsg call, and after d33e455337ea ("net: Abstract default MTU metric calculation behind an accessor.") this leads to a crash in ip_append_data() because the blackhole dst_ops have no default_mtu() method and so dst_mtu() calls a NULL pointer. Fix this by adding default_mtu() methods (that simply return 0, matching the old behavior) to the blackhole dst_ops. The IPv4 part of this patch fixes a crash that I saw when using an IPSEC VPN; the IPv6 part is untested because I don't have an IPv6 VPN, but it looks to be needed as well.

2011-01-27ipv6: Remove route peer binding assertions.David S. Miller
They are bogus. The basic idea is that I wanted to make sure that prefixed routes never bind to peers. The test I used was whether RTF_CACHE was set. But first of all, the RTF_CACHE flag is set at different spots depending upon which ip6_rt_copy() caller you're talking about. I've validated all of the code paths, and even in the future where we bind peers more aggressively (for route metric COW'ing) we never bind to prefix'd routes, only fully specified ones. This even applies when addrconf or icmp6 routes are allocated. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2011-01-18ipv6: Silence privacy extensions initializationRomain Francoise
When a network namespace is created (via CLONE_NEWNET), the loopback interface is automatically added to the new namespace, triggering a printk in ipv6_add_dev() if CONFIG_IPV6_PRIVACY is set. This is problematic for applications which use CLONE_NEWNET as part of a sandbox, like Chromium's suid sandbox or recent versions of vsftpd. On a busy machine, it can lead to thousands of useless "lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions" messages appearing in dmesg. It's easy enough to check the status of privacy extensions via the use_tempaddr sysctl, so just removing the printk seems like the most sensible solution.

inet_csk_bind_conflict() logic currently disallows a bind() if it finds a friend socket (a socket bound on same address/port) satisfying a set of conditions : 1) Current (to be bound) socket doesnt have sk_reuse set OR 2) other socket doesnt have sk_reuse set OR 3) other socket is in LISTEN state We should add the CLOSE state in the 3) condition, in order to avoid two REUSEADDR sockets in CLOSE state with same local address/port, since this can deny further operations.

2010-12-16ipv6: delete expired route in ip6_pmtu_deliverAndrey Vagin
The first big packets sent to a "low-MTU" client correctly triggers the creation of a temporary route containing the reduced MTU. But after the temporary route has expired, new ICMP6 "packet too big" will be sent, rt6_pmtu_discovery will find the previous EXPIRED route check that its mtu isn't bigger then in icmp packet and do nothing before the temporary route will not deleted by gc. I make the simple experiment: while :; do time ( dd if=/dev/zero bs=10K count=1 | ssh hostname dd of=/dev/null ) || break; done The "time" reports real 0m0.197s if a temporary route isn't expired, but it reports real 0m52.837s (!!!!) immediately after a temporare route has expired.

2010-12-14net: Abstract default MTU metric calculation behind an accessor.David S. Miller
Like RTAX_ADVMSS, make the default calculation go through a dst_ops method rather than caching the computation in the routing cache entries. Now dst metrics are pretty much left as-is when new entries are created, thus optimizing metric sharing becomes a real possibility. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-12-13net: Abstract default ADVMSS behind an accessor.David S. Miller
Make all RTAX_ADVMSS metric accesses go through a new helper function, dst_metric_advmss(). Leave the actual default metric as "zero" in the real metric slot, and compute the actual default value dynamically via a new dst_ops AF specific callback. For stacked IPSEC routes, we use the advmss of the path which preserves existing behavior. Unlike ipv4/ipv6, DecNET ties the advmss to the mtu and thus updates advmss on pmtu updates. This inconsistency in advmss handling results in more raw metric accesses than I wish we ended up with. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This is for consistency with ipv4. Using "-1" makes no sense. It was made this way a long time ago merely to be consistent with how the ipv6 socket hoplimit "default" is stored. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2010-12-09net: optimize INET input path furtherEric Dumazet
Followup of commit b178bb3dfc30 (net: reorder struct sock fields) Optimize INET input path a bit further, by : 1) moving sk_refcnt close to sk_lock. This reduces number of dirtied cache lines by one on 64bit arches (and 64 bytes cache line size). 2) moving inet_daddr & inet_rcv_saddr at the beginning of sk (same cache line than hash / family / bound_dev_if / nulls_node) This reduces number of accessed cache lines in lookups by one, and dont increase size of inet and timewait socks. inet and tw sockets now share same place-holder for these fields. Before patch : offsetof(struct sock, sk_refcnt) = 0x10 offsetof(struct sock, sk_lock) = 0x40 offsetof(struct sock, sk_receive_queue) = 0x60 offsetof(struct inet_sock, inet_daddr) = 0x270 offsetof(struct inet_sock, inet_rcv_saddr) = 0x274 After patch : offsetof(struct sock, sk_refcnt) = 0x44 offsetof(struct sock, sk_lock) = 0x48 offsetof(struct sock, sk_receive_queue) = 0x68 offsetof(struct inet_sock, inet_daddr) = 0x0 offsetof(struct inet_sock, inet_rcv_saddr) = 0x4 compute_score() (udp or tcp) now use a single cache line per ignored item, instead of two.

2010-12-09net: Abstract away all dst_entry metrics accesses.David S. Miller
Use helper functions to hide all direct accesses, especially writes, to dst_entry metrics values. This will allow us to: 1) More easily change how the metrics are stored. 2) Implement COW for metrics. In particular this will help us put metrics into the inetpeer cache if that is what we end up doing. We can make the _metrics member a pointer instead of an array, initially have it point at the read-only metrics in the FIB, and then on the first set grab an inetpeer entry and point the _metrics member there.
