Masahide NAKAMURA e53820de0f [XFRM] IPV6: Restrict bundle reusing
For outbound transformation, bundle is checked whether it is
suitable for current flow to be reused or not. In such IPv6 case
as below, transformation may apply incorrect bundle for the flow instead
of creating another bundle:

- The policy selector has destination prefix length < 128
  (Two or more addresses can be matched it)
- Its bundle holds dst entry of default route whose prefix length < 128
  (Previous traffic was used such route as next hop)
- The policy and the bundle were used a transport mode state and
  this time flow address is not matched the bundled state.

This issue is found by Mobile IPv6 usage to protect mobility signaling
by IPsec, but it is not a Mobile IPv6 specific.
This patch adds strict check to xfrm_bundle_ok() for each
state mode and address when prefix length is less than 128.

Masahide NAKAMURA 9e51fd371a [XFRM]: Rename secpath_has_tunnel to secpath_has_nontransport.
On current kernel inbound transformation state is allowed transport and
disallowed tunnel mode when mismatch is occurred between tempates and states.
As the result of adding two more modes by Mobile IPv6, this function name
is misleading. Inbound transformation can allow only transport mode
when mismatch is occurred between template and secpath.
Based on MIPL2 kernel patch.

David S. Miller d49c73c729 [IPSEC]: Validate properly in xfrm_dst_check()
If dst->obsolete is -1, this is a signal from the
bundle creator that we want the XFRM dst and the
dsts that it references to be validated on every
use.

I misunderstood this intention when I changed
xfrm_dst_check() to always return NULL.

Now, when we purge a dst entry, by running dst_free()
on it.  This will set the dst->obsolete to a positive
integer, and we want to return NULL in that case so
that the socket does a relookup for the route.

Thus, if dst->obsolete<0, let stale_bundle() validate
the state, else always return NULL.

In general, we need to do things more intelligently
here because we flush too much state during rule
changes.  Herbert Xu has some ideas wherein the key
manager gives us some help in this area.  We can also
use smarter state management algorithms inside of
the kernel as well.

Herbert Xu 546be2405b [IPSEC] xfrm: Undo afinfo lock proliferation
The number of locks used to manage afinfo structures can easily be reduced
down to one each for policy and state respectively.  This is based on the
observation that the write locks are only held by module insertion/removal
which are very rare events so there is no need to further differentiate
between the insertion of modules like ipv6 versus esp6.

The removal of the read locks in xfrm4_policy.c/xfrm6_policy.c might look
suspicious at first.  However, after you realise that nobody ever takes
the corresponding write lock you'll feel better :)

As far as I can gather it's an attempt to guard against the removal of
the corresponding modules.  Since neither module can be unloaded at all
we can leave it to whoever fixes up IPv6 unloading :)

Herbert Xu 752c1f4c78 [IPSEC]: Kill post_input hook and do NAT-T in esp_input directly
The only reason post_input exists at all is that it gives us the
potential to adjust the checksums incrementally in future which
we ought to do.

However, after thinking about it for a bit we can adjust the
checksums without using this post_input stuff at all.  The crucial
point is that only the inner-most NAT-T SA needs to be considered
when adjusting checksums.  What's more, the checksum adjustment
comes down to a single u32 due to the linearity of IP checksums.

We just happen to have a spare u32 lying around in our skb structure :)
When ip_summed is set to CHECKSUM_NONE on input, the value of skb->csum
is currently unused.  All we have to do is to make that the checksum
adjustment and voila, there goes all the post_input and decap structures!

I've left in the decap data structures for now since it's intricately
woven into the sec_path stuff.  We can kill them later too.

Herbert Xu 00de651d14 [IPSEC]: Fix strange IPsec freeze.
Problem discovered and initial patch by Olaf Kirch:

	there's a problem with IPsec that has been bugging some of our users
	for the last couple of kernel revs. Every now and then, IPsec will
	freeze the machine completely. This is with openswan user land,
	and with kernels up to and including 2.6.16-rc2.

	I managed to debug this a little, and what happens is that we end
	up looping in xfrm_lookup, and never get out. With a bit of debug
	printks added, I can this happening:

		ip_route_output_flow calls xfrm_lookup

		xfrm_find_bundle returns NULL (apparently we're in the
			middle of negotiating a new SA or something)

		We therefore call xfrm_tmpl_resolve. This returns EAGAIN
			We go to sleep, waiting for a policy update.
			Then we loop back to the top

		Apparently, the dst_orig that was passed into xfrm_lookup
			has been dropped from the routing table (obsolete=2)
			This leads to the endless loop, because we now create
			a new bundle, check the new bundle and find it's stale
			(stale_bundle -> xfrm_bundle_ok -> dst_check() return 0)

	People have been testing with the patch below, which seems to fix the
	problem partially. They still see connection hangs however (things
	only clear up when they start a new ping or new ssh). So the patch
	is obvsiouly not sufficient, and something else seems to go wrong.

	I'm grateful for any hints you may have...

I suggest that we simply bail out always.  If the dst decides to die
on us later on, the packet will be dropped anyway.  So there is no
great urgency to retry here.  Once we have the proper resolution
queueing, we can then do the retry again.

Trent Jaeger df71837d50 [LSM-IPSec]: Security association restriction.
This patch series implements per packet access control via the
extension of the Linux Security Modules (LSM) interface by hooks in
the XFRM and pfkey subsystems that leverage IPSec security
associations to label packets.  Extensions to the SELinux LSM are
included that leverage the patch for this purpose.

This patch implements the changes necessary to the XFRM subsystem,
pfkey interface, ipv4/ipv6, and xfrm_user interface to restrict a
socket to use only authorized security associations (or no security
association) to send/receive network packets.

Patch purpose:

The patch is designed to enable access control per packets based on
the strongly authenticated IPSec security association.  Such access
controls augment the existing ones based on network interface and IP
address.  The former are very coarse-grained, and the latter can be
spoofed.  By using IPSec, the system can control access to remote
hosts based on cryptographic keys generated using the IPSec mechanism.
This enables access control on a per-machine basis or per-application
if the remote machine is running the same mechanism and trusted to
enforce the access control policy.

Patch design approach:

The overall approach is that policy (xfrm_policy) entries set by
user-level programs (e.g., setkey for ipsec-tools) are extended with a
security context that is used at policy selection time in the XFRM
subsystem to restrict the sockets that can send/receive packets via
security associations (xfrm_states) that are built from those
policies.

A presentation available at
www.selinux-symposium.org/2005/presentations/session2/2-3-jaeger.pdf
from the SELinux symposium describes the overall approach.

Patch implementation details:

On output, the policy retrieved (via xfrm_policy_lookup or
xfrm_sk_policy_lookup) must be authorized for the security context of
the socket and the same security context is required for resultant
security association (retrieved or negotiated via racoon in
ipsec-tools).  This is enforced in xfrm_state_find.

On input, the policy retrieved must also be authorized for the socket
(at __xfrm_policy_check), and the security context of the policy must
also match the security association being used.

The patch has virtually no impact on packets that do not use IPSec.
The existing Netfilter (outgoing) and LSM rcv_skb hooks are used as
before.

Also, if IPSec is used without security contexts, the impact is
minimal.  The LSM must allow such policies to be selected for the
combination of socket and remote machine, but subsequent IPSec
processing proceeds as in the original case.

Testing:

The pfkey interface is tested using the ipsec-tools.  ipsec-tools have
been modified (a separate ipsec-tools patch is available for version
0.5) that supports assignment of xfrm_policy entries and security
associations with security contexts via setkey and the negotiation
using the security contexts via racoon.

The xfrm_user interface is tested via ad hoc programs that set
security contexts.  These programs are also available from me, and
contain programs for setting, getting, and deleting policy for testing
this interface.  Testing of sa functions was done by tracing kernel
behavior.

David S. Miller 9b78a82c1c [IPSEC]: Fix policy updates missed by sockets
The problem is that when new policies are inserted, sockets do not see
the update (but all new route lookups do).

This bug is related to the SA insertion stale route issue solved
recently, and this policy visibility problem can be fixed in a similar
way.

The fix is to flush out the bundles of all policies deeper than the
policy being inserted.  Consider beginning state of "outgoing"
direction policy list:

	policy A --> policy B --> policy C --> policy D

First, realize that inserting a policy into a list only potentially
changes IPSEC routes for that direction.  Therefore we need not bother
considering the policies for other directions.  We need only consider
the existing policies in the list we are doing the inserting.

Consider new policy "B'", inserted after B.

	policy A --> policy B --> policy B' --> policy C --> policy D

Two rules:

1) If policy A or policy B matched before the insertion, they
   appear before B' and thus would still match after inserting
   B'

2) Policy C and D, now "shadowed" and after policy B', potentially
   contain stale routes because policy B' might be selected
   instead of them.

Therefore we only need flush routes assosciated with policies
appearing after a newly inserted policy, if any.

document the fact that the policy direction can be and is derived
from the index.

This is based on a patch by YOSHIFUJI Hideaki and 210313105@suda.edu.cn.

Eric Dumazet ba89966c19 [NET]: use __read_mostly on kmem_cache_t , DEFINE_SNMP_STAT pointers
This patch puts mostly read only data in the right section
(read_mostly), to help sharing of these data between CPUS without
memory ping pongs.

On one of my production machine, tcp_statistics was sitting in a
heavily modified cache line, so *every* SNMP update had to force a
reload.

Herbert Xu 72cb6962a9 [IPSEC]: Add xfrm_init_state
This patch adds xfrm_init_state which is simply a wrapper that calls
xfrm_get_type and subsequently x->type->init_state.  It also gets rid
of the unused args argument.

Abstracting it out allows us to add common initialisation code, e.g.,
to set family-specific flags.

The add_time setting in xfrm_user.c was deleted because it's already
set by xfrm_state_alloc.

Herbert Xu 4666faab09 [IPSEC] Kill spurious hard expire messages
This patch ensures that the hard state/policy expire notifications are
only sent when the state/policy is successfully removed from their
respective tables.

As it is, it's possible for a state/policy to both expire through
reaching a hard limit, as well as being deleted by the user.

Note that this behaviour isn't actually forbidden by RFC 2367.
However, it is a quality of implementation issue.

As an added bonus, the restructuring in this patch will help
eventually in moving the expire notifications from softirq
context into process context, thus improving their reliability.

One important side-effect from this change is that SAs reaching
their hard byte/packet limits are now deleted immediately, just
like SAs that have reached their hard time limits.

Previously they were announced immediately but only deleted after
30 seconds.

This is bad because it prevents the system from issuing an ACQUIRE
command until the existing state was deleted by the user or expires
after the time is up.

In the scenario where the expire notification was lost this introduces
a 30 second delay into the system for no good reason.

Herbert Xu aabc9761b6 [IPSEC]: Store idev entries
I found a bug that stopped IPsec/IPv6 from working.  About
a month ago IPv6 started using rt6i_idev->dev on the cached socket dst
entries.  If the cached socket dst entry is IPsec, then rt6i_idev will
be NULL.

Since we want to look at the rt6i_idev of the original route in this
case, the easiest fix is to store rt6i_idev in the IPsec dst entry just
as we do for a number of other IPv6 route attributes.  Unfortunately
this means that we need some new code to handle the references to
rt6i_idev.  That's why this patch is bigger than it would otherwise be.

I've also done the same thing for IPv4 since it is conceivable that
once these idev attributes start getting used for accounting, we
probably need to dereference them for IPv4 IPsec entries too.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
