Hannes Frederic Sowa 01ba16d6ec ipv6: reset dst.expires value when clearing expire flag
On receiving a packet too big icmp error we update the expire value by
calling rt6_update_expires. This function uses dst_set_expires which is
implemented that it can only reduce the expiration value of the dst entry.

If we insert new routing non-expiry information into the ipv6 fib where
we already have a matching rt6_info we only clear the RTF_EXPIRES flag
in rt6i_flags and leave the dst.expires value as is.

When new mtu information arrives for that cached dst_entry we again
call dst_set_expires. This time it won't update the dst.expire value
because we left the dst.expire value intact from the last update. So
dst_set_expires won't touch dst.expires.

Fix this by resetting dst.expires when clearing the RTF_EXPIRE flag.
dst_set_expires checks for a zero expiration and updates the
dst.expires.

In the past this (not updating dst.expires) was necessary because
dst.expire was placed in a union with the dst_entry *from reference
and rt6_clean_expires did assign NULL to it. This split happend in
ecd9883724 ("ipv6: fix race condition
regarding dst->expires and dst->from").

Julian Anastasov 550bab42f8 ipv6: fill rt6i_gateway with nexthop address
Make sure rt6i_gateway contains nexthop information in
all routes returned from lookup or when routes are directly
attached to skb for generated ICMP packets.

The effect of this patch should be a faster version of
rt6_nexthop() and the consideration of local addresses as
nexthop.

Julian Anastasov 96dc809514 ipv6: always prefer rt6i_gateway if present
In v3.9 6fd6ce2056 ("ipv6: Do not depend on rt->n in
ip6_finish_output2()." changed the behaviour of ip6_finish_output2()
such that the recently introduced rt6_nexthop() is used
instead of an assigned neighbor.

As rt6_nexthop() prefers rt6i_gateway only for gatewayed
routes this causes a problem for users like IPVS, xt_TEE and
RAW(hdrincl) if they want to use different address for routing
compared to the destination address.

Another case is when redirect can create RTF_DYNAMIC
route without RTF_GATEWAY flag, we ignore the rt6i_gateway
in rt6_nexthop().

Fix the above problems by considering the rt6i_gateway if
present, so that traffic routed to address on local subnet is
not wrongly diverted to the destination address.

Thanks to Simon Horman and Phil Oester for spotting the
problematic commit.

Thanks to Hannes Frederic Sowa for his review and help in testing.

Seif Mazareeb f2e5ddcc0d net: fix cipso packet validation when !NETLABEL
When CONFIG_NETLABEL is disabled, the cipso_v4_validate() function could loop
forever in the main loop if opt[opt_iter +1] == 0, this will causing a kernel
crash in an SMP system, since the CPU executing this function will
stall /not respond to IPIs.

This problem can be reproduced by running the IP Stack Integrity Checker

Pravin B Shelar 559835ea72 vxlan: Use RCU apis to access sk_user_data.
Use of RCU api makes vxlan code easier to understand.  It also
fixes bug due to missing ACCESS_ONCE() on sk_user_data dereference.
In rare case without ACCESS_ONCE() compiler might omit vs on
sk_user_data dereference.
Compiler can use vs as alias for sk->sk_user_data, resulting in
multiple sk_user_data dereference in rcu read context which
could change.

Eric W. Biederman 50624c934d net: Delay default_device_exit_batch until no devices are unregistering v2
There is currently serialization network namespaces exiting and
network devices exiting as the final part of netdev_run_todo does not
happen under the rtnl_lock.  This is compounded by the fact that the
only list of devices unregistering in netdev_run_todo is local to the
netdev_run_todo.

This lack of serialization in extreme cases results in network devices
unregistering in netdev_run_todo after the loopback device of their
network namespace has been freed (making dst_ifdown unsafe), and after
the their network namespace has exited (making the NETDEV_UNREGISTER,
and NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL callbacks unsafe).

Add the missing serialization by a per network namespace count of how
many network devices are unregistering and having a wait queue that is
woken up whenever the count is decreased.  The count and wait queue
allow default_device_exit_batch to wait until all of the unregistration
activity for a network namespace has finished before proceeding to
unregister the loopback device and then allowing the network namespace
to exit.

Only a single global wait queue is used because there is a single global
lock, and there is a single waiter, per network namespace wait queues
would be a waste of resources.

The per network namespace count of unregistering devices gives a
progress guarantee because the number of network devices unregistering
in an exiting network namespace must ultimately drop to zero (assuming
network device unregistration completes).

The basic logic remains the same as in v1.  This patch is now half
comment and half rtnl_lock_unregistering an expanded version of
wait_event performs no extra work in the common case where no network
devices are unregistering when we get to default_device_exit_batch.

correct defragmentation on the peer.

For example, if IPsec (tunnel mode) has to encrypt large skbs
that have local_df bit set, then all IP fragments that belonged
to different ESP datagrams would have used the same identificator.
If one of these IP fragments would get lost or reordered, then
peer could possibly stitch together wrong IP fragments that did

Julian Anastasov bcbde4c0a7 ipvs: make the service replacement more robust
commit 578bc3ef1e ("ipvs: reorganize dest trash") added
IP_VS_DEST_STATE_REMOVING flag and RCU callback named
ip_vs_dest_wait_readers() to keep dests and services after
removal for at least a RCU grace period. But we have the
following corner cases:

- we can not reuse the same dest if its service is removed
while IP_VS_DEST_STATE_REMOVING is still set because another dest
removal in the first grace period can not extend this period.
It can happen when ipvsadm -C && ipvsadm -R is used.

- dest->svc can be replaced but ip_vs_in_stats() and
ip_vs_out_stats() have no explicit read memory barriers
when accessing dest->svc. It can happen that dest->svc
was just freed (replaced) while we use it to update
the stats.

We solve the problems as follows:

- IP_VS_DEST_STATE_REMOVING is removed and we ensure a fixed
idle period for the dest (IP_VS_DEST_TRASH_PERIOD). idle_start
will remember when for first time after deletion we noticed
dest->refcnt=0. Later, the connections can grab a reference
while in RCU grace period but if refcnt becomes 0 we can
safely free the dest and its svc.

- dest->svc becomes RCU pointer. As result, we add explicit
RCU locking in ip_vs_in_stats() and ip_vs_out_stats().

- __ip_vs_unbind_svc is renamed to __ip_vs_svc_put(), it
now can free the service immediately or after a RCU grace
period. dest->svc is not set to NULL anymore.

	As result, unlinked dests and their services are
freed always after IP_VS_DEST_TRASH_PERIOD period, unused
services are freed after a RCU grace period.

Simon Kirby c16526a7b9 ipvs: fix overflow on dest weight multiply
Schedulers such as lblc and lblcr require the weight to be as high as the
maximum number of active connections. In commit b552f7e3a9
("ipvs: unify the formula to estimate the overhead of processing
connections"), the consideration of inactconns and activeconns was cleaned
up to always count activeconns as 256 times more important than inactconns.
In cases where 3000 or more connections are expected, a weight of 3000 *
256 * 3000 connections overflows the 32-bit signed result used to determine
if rescheduling is required.

On amd64, this merely changes the multiply and comparison instructions to
64-bit. On x86, a 64-bit result is already present from imull, so only
a few more comparison instructions are emitted.

Michal Kubeček 2c861cc65e ipv6: don't call fib6_run_gc() until routing is ready
When loading the ipv6 module, ndisc_init() is called before
ip6_route_init(). As the former registers a handler calling
fib6_run_gc(), this opens a window to run the garbage collector
before necessary data structures are initialized. If a network
device is initialized in this window, adding MAC address to it
triggers a NETDEV_CHANGEADDR event, leading to a crash in
fib6_clean_all().

Take the event handler registration out of ndisc_init() into a
separate function ndisc_late_init() and move it after
ip6_route_init().

Joseph Gasparakis 53cf527513 vxlan: Notify drivers for listening UDP port changes
This patch adds two more ndo ops: ndo_add_rx_vxlan_port() and
ndo_del_rx_vxlan_port().

Drivers can get notifications through the above functions about changes
of the UDP listening port of VXLAN. Also, when physical ports come up,
now they can call vxlan_get_rx_port() in order to obtain the port number(s)
of the existing VXLAN interface in case they already up before them.

This information about the listening UDP port would be used for VXLAN
related offloads.

Daniel Borkmann 89225d1ce6 net: ipv6: mld: fix v1/v2 switchback timeout to rfc3810, 9.12.
i) RFC3810, 9.2. Query Interval [QI] says:

   The Query Interval variable denotes the interval between General
   Queries sent by the Querier. Default value: 125 seconds. [...]

ii) RFC3810, 9.3. Query Response Interval [QRI] says:

  The Maximum Response Delay used to calculate the Maximum Response
  Code inserted into the periodic General Queries. Default value:
  10000 (10 seconds) [...] The number of seconds represented by the
  [Query Response Interval] must be less than the [Query Interval].

iii) RFC3810, 9.12. Older Version Querier Present Timeout [OVQPT] says:

  The Older Version Querier Present Timeout is the time-out for
  transitioning a host back to MLDv2 Host Compatibility Mode. When an
  MLDv1 query is received, MLDv2 hosts set their Older Version Querier
  Present Timer to [Older Version Querier Present Timeout].

  This value MUST be ([Robustness Variable] times (the [Query Interval]
  in the last Query received)) plus ([Query Response Interval]).

Hence, on *default* the timeout results in:

  [RV] = 2, [QI] = 125sec, [QRI] = 10sec
  [OVQPT] = [RV] * [QI] + [QRI] = 260sec

Having that said, we currently calculate [OVQPT] (here given as 'switchback'
variable) as ...

  switchback = (idev->mc_qrv + 1) * max_delay

RFC3810, 9.12. says "the [Query Interval] in the last Query received". In
section "9.14. Configuring timers", it is said:

  This section is meant to provide advice to network administrators on
  how to tune these settings to their network. Ambitious router
  implementations might tune these settings dynamically based upon
  changing characteristics of the network. [...]

iv) RFC38010, 9.14.2. Query Interval:

  The overall level of periodic MLD traffic is inversely proportional
  to the Query Interval. A longer Query Interval results in a lower
  overall level of MLD traffic. The value of the Query Interval MUST
  be equal to or greater than the Maximum Response Delay used to
  calculate the Maximum Response Code inserted in General Query
  messages.

I assume that was why switchback is calculated as is (3 * max_delay), although
this setting seems to be meant for routers only to configure their [QI]
interval for non-default intervals. So usage here like this is clearly wrong.

Concluding, the current behaviour in IPv6's multicast code is not conform
to the RFC as switch back is calculated wrongly. That is, it has a too small
value, so MLDv2 hosts switch back again to MLDv2 way too early, i.e. ~30secs
instead of ~260secs on default.

Hence, introduce necessary helper functions and fix this up properly as it
should be.

Introduced in 06da92283 ("[IPV6]: Add MLDv2 support."). Credits to Hannes
Frederic Sowa who also had a hand in this as well. Also thanks to Hangbin Liu
who did initial testing.

John W. Linville says:

====================
Please accept this batch of updates intended for the 3.12 stream.

For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says this:

"This time I have various improvements all over the place: IBSS, mesh,
testmode, AP client powersave handling, one of the rare rfkill patches
and some code cleanup."

Also for mac80211:

"And I also have some more changes for -next, just a few small fixes and
improvements, nothing really stands out."

And for iwlwifi:

"This time I have some powersave work (notably uAPSD support), CQM
offloads, support for a new firmware API and various code cleanups."

Regarding the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says:

"Patches to 3.12, here we have:

* implementation of a proper tty_port for RFCOMM devices, this fixes some
issues people were seeing lately in the kernel.
* Add voice_setting option for SCO, it is used for SCO Codec selection
* bugfixes, small improvements and clean ups"

For the NFC bits, Samuel says:

"With this one we have:

- A few pn533 improvements and minor fixes. Testing our pn533 driver
  against Google's NCI stack triggered a few issues that we fixed now.
  We also added Tx fragmentation support to this driver.

- More NFC secure element handling. We added a GET_SE netlink command
  for getting all the discovered secure elements, and we defined 2
  additional secure element netlink event (transaction and connectivity).
  We also fixed a couple of typos and copy-paste bugs from the secure
  element handling code.

- Firmware download support for the pn544 driver. This chipset can enter a
  special mode where it's waiting for firmware blobs to replace the
  already flashed one. We now support that mode."

With repect to the ath tree, Kalle says:

"New features in ath10k are rx/tx checsumming in hw and survey scan
implemented by Michal. Also he made fixes to different areas of the
driver, most notable being fixing the case when using two streams and
reducing the number of interface combinations to avoid firmware crashes.
Bartosz did a clean related to how we handle SoC power save in PCI
layer.

For ath6kl Mohammed and Vasanth sent each a patch to fix two infrequent
crashes."

I also pulled the wireless tree into wireless-next to support a
request from Johannes.  On top of all that, there are the usual
sort of driver updates.  The mwifiex, brcmfmac, brcmsmac, ath9k,
and rt2x00 drivers all get some attention, as does the bcma bus and
a few other random bits here and there.

Linus Torvalds 32dad03d16 Merge branch 'for-3.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup
Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
 "A lot of activities on the cgroup front.  Most changes aren't visible
  to userland at all at this point and are laying foundation for the
  planned unified hierarchy.

   - The biggest change is decoupling the lifetime management of css
     (cgroup_subsys_state) from that of cgroup's.  Because controllers
     (cpu, memory, block and so on) will need to be dynamically enabled
     and disabled, css which is the association point between a cgroup
     and a controller may come and go dynamically across the lifetime of
     a cgroup.  Till now, css's were created when the associated cgroup
     was created and stayed till the cgroup got destroyed.

     Assumptions around this tight coupling permeated through cgroup
     core and controllers.  These assumptions are gradually removed,
     which consists bulk of patches, and css destruction path is
     completely decoupled from cgroup destruction path.  Note that
     decoupling of creation path is relatively easy on top of these
     changes and the patchset is pending for the next window.

   - cgroup has its own event mechanism cgroup.event_control, which is
     only used by memcg.  It is overly complex trying to achieve high
     flexibility whose benefits seem dubious at best.  Going forward,
     new events will simply generate file modified event and the
     existing mechanism is being made specific to memcg.  This pull
     request contains prepatory patches for such change.

   - Various fixes and cleanups"

stephen hemminger 6da7c8fcbc qdisc: allow setting default queuing discipline
By default, the pfifo_fast queue discipline has been used by default
for all devices. But we have better choices now.

This patch allow setting the default queueing discipline with sysctl.
This allows easy use of better queueing disciplines on all devices
without having to use tc qdisc scripts. It is intended to allow

This patch also makes pfifo_fast more of a first class qdisc, since
it is now possible to manually override the default and explicitly
use pfifo_fast. The behavior for systems who do not use the sysctl
is unchanged, they still get pfifo_fast

Also removes leftover random # in sysctl net core.

Steffen Klassert says:

====================
This pull request fixes some issues that arise when 6in4 or 4in6 tunnels
are used in combination with IPsec, all from Hannes Frederic Sowa and a
null pointer dereference when queueing packets to the policy hold queue.

1) We might access the local error handler of the wrong address family if
   6in4 or 4in6 tunnel is protected by ipsec. Fix this by addind a pointer
   to the correct local_error to xfrm_state_afinet.

2) Add a helper function to always refer to the correct interpretation
   of skb->sk.

3) Call skb_reset_inner_headers to record the position of the inner headers
   when adding a new one in various ipv6 tunnels. This is needed to identify
   the addresses where to send back errors in the xfrm layer.

4) Dereference inner ipv6 header if encapsulated to always call the
   right error handler.

5) Choose protocol family by skb protocol to not call the wrong
   xfrm{4,6}_local_error handler in case an ipv6 sockets is used
   in ipv4 mode.

6) Partly revert "xfrm: introduce helper for safe determination of mtu"
   because this introduced pmtu discovery problems.

7) Set skb->protocol on tcp, raw and ip6_append_data genereated skbs.
   We need this to get the correct mtu informations in xfrm.

8) Fix null pointer dereference in xdst_queue_output.

Eric Dumazet 95bd09eb27 tcp: TSO packets automatic sizing
After hearing many people over past years complaining against TSO being
bursty or even buggy, we are proud to present automatic sizing of TSO
packets.

One part of the problem is that tcp_tso_should_defer() uses an heuristic
relying on upcoming ACKS instead of a timer, but more generally, having
big TSO packets makes little sense for low rates, as it tends to create
micro bursts on the network, and general consensus is to reduce the
buffering amount.

This patch introduces a per socket sk_pacing_rate, that approximates
the current sending rate, and allows us to size the TSO packets so
that we try to send one packet every ms.

This field could be set by other transports.

Patch has no impact for high speed flows, where having large TSO packets
makes sense to reach line rate.

For other flows, this helps better packet scheduling and ACK clocking.

This patch increases performance of TCP flows in lossy environments.

A new sysctl (tcp_min_tso_segs) is added, to specify the
minimal size of a TSO packet (default being 2).

A follow-up patch will provide a new packet scheduler (FQ), using
sk_pacing_rate as an input to perform optional per flow pacing.

This explains why we chose to set sk_pacing_rate to twice the current
rate, allowing 'slow start' ramp up.

sk_pacing_rate = 2 * cwnd * mss / srtt

v2: Neal Cardwell reported a suspect deferring of last two segments on
initial write of 10 MSS, I had to change tcp_tso_should_defer() to take
into account tp->xmit_size_goal_segs

Daniel Borkmann 76bfd89844 net: sctp: reorder sctp_globals to reduce cacheline usage
Reduce cacheline usage from 2 to 1 cacheline for sctp_globals structure. By
reordering elements, we can close gaps and simply achieve the following:

Current situation:
  /* size: 80, cachelines: 2, members: 10 */
  /* sum members: 57, holes: 4, sum holes: 16 */
  /* padding: 7 */
  /* last cacheline: 16 bytes */

Afterwards:
  /* size: 64, cachelines: 1, members: 10 */
  /* padding: 7 */
