Eric Dumazet 870c315138 ipv6: introduce tcp_v6_iif()
Commit 971f10eca1 ("tcp: better TCP_SKB_CB layout to reduce cache line
misses") added a regression for SO_BINDTODEVICE on IPv6.

This is because we still use inet6_iif() which expects that IP6 control
block is still at the beginning of skb->cb[]

This patch adds tcp_v6_iif() helper and uses it where necessary.

Because __inet6_lookup_skb() is used by TCP and DCCP, we add an iif
parameter to it.

Linus Torvalds c798360cd1 Merge branch 'for-3.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu
Pull percpu updates from Tejun Heo:
 "A lot of activities on percpu front.  Notable changes are...

   - percpu allocator now can take @gfp.  If @gfp doesn't contain
     GFP_KERNEL, it tries to allocate from what's already available to
     the allocator and a work item tries to keep the reserve around
     certain level so that these atomic allocations usually succeed.

     This will replace the ad-hoc percpu memory pool used by
     blk-throttle and also be used by the planned blkcg support for
     writeback IOs.

     Please note that I noticed a bug in how @gfp is interpreted while
     preparing this pull request and applied the fix 6ae833c7fe
     ("percpu: fix how @gfp is interpreted by the percpu allocator")
     just now.

   - percpu_ref now uses longs for percpu and global counters instead of
     ints.  It leads to more sparse packing of the percpu counters on
     64bit machines but the overhead should be negligible and this
     allows using percpu_ref for refcnting pages and in-memory objects
     directly.

   - The switching between percpu and single counter modes of a
     percpu_ref is made independent of putting the base ref and a
     percpu_ref can now optionally be initialized in single or killed
     mode.  This allows avoiding percpu shutdown latency for cases where
     the refcounted objects may be synchronously created and destroyed
     in rapid succession with only a fraction of them reaching fully
     operational status (SCSI probing does this when combined with
     blk-mq support).  It's also planned to be used to implement forced
     single mode to detect underflow more timely for debugging.

  There's a separate branch percpu/for-3.18-consistent-ops which cleans
  up the duplicate percpu accessors.  That branch causes a number of
  conflicts with s390 and other trees.  I'll send a separate pull
  request w/ resolutions once other branches are merged"

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
 "Most notable changes in here:

   1) By far the biggest accomplishment, thanks to a large range of
      contributors, is the addition of multi-send for transmit.  This is
      the result of discussions back in Chicago, and the hard work of
      several individuals.

      Now, when the ->ndo_start_xmit() method of a driver sees
      skb->xmit_more as true, it can choose to defer the doorbell
      telling the driver to start processing the new TX queue entires.

      skb->xmit_more means that the generic networking is guaranteed to
      call the driver immediately with another SKB to send.

      There is logic added to the qdisc layer to dequeue multiple
      packets at a time, and the handling mis-predicted offloads in
      software is now done with no locks held.

      Finally, pktgen is extended to have a "burst" parameter that can
      be used to test a multi-send implementation.

      Several drivers have xmit_more support: i40e, igb, ixgbe, mlx4,
      virtio_net

      Adding support is almost trivial, so export more drivers to
      support this optimization soon.

      I want to thank, in no particular or implied order, Jesper
      Dangaard Brouer, Eric Dumazet, Alexander Duyck, Tom Herbert, Jamal
      Hadi Salim, John Fastabend, Florian Westphal, Daniel Borkmann,
      David Tat, Hannes Frederic Sowa, and Rusty Russell.

   2) PTP and timestamping support in bnx2x, from Michal Kalderon.

   3) Allow adjusting the rx_copybreak threshold for a driver via
      ethtool, and add rx_copybreak support to enic driver.  From
      Govindarajulu Varadarajan.

   4) Significant enhancements to the generic PHY layer and the bcm7xxx
      driver in particular (EEE support, auto power down, etc.) from
      Florian Fainelli.

   5) Allow raw buffers to be used for flow dissection, allowing drivers
      to determine the optimal "linear pull" size for devices that DMA
      into pools of pages.  The objective is to get exactly the
      necessary amount of headers into the linear SKB area pre-pulled,
      but no more.  The new interface drivers use is eth_get_headlen().
      From WANG Cong, with driver conversions (several had their own
      by-hand duplicated implementations) by Alexander Duyck and Eric
      Dumazet.

   6) Support checksumming more smoothly and efficiently for
      encapsulations, and add "foo over UDP" facility.  From Tom
      Herbert.

   7) Add Broadcom SF2 switch driver to DSA layer, from Florian
      Fainelli.

   8) eBPF now can load programs via a system call and has an extensive
      testsuite.  Alexei Starovoitov and Daniel Borkmann.

   9) Major overhaul of the packet scheduler to use RCU in several major
      areas such as the classifiers and rate estimators.  From John
      Fastabend.

  10) Add driver for Intel FM10000 Ethernet Switch, from Alexander
      Duyck.

  11) Rearrange TCP_SKB_CB() to reduce cache line misses, from Eric
      Dumazet.

  12) Add Datacenter TCP congestion control algorithm support, From
      Florian Westphal.

  13) Reorganize sk_buff so that __copy_skb_header() is significantly
      faster.  From Eric Dumazet"

Tejun Heo 908c7f1949 percpu_counter: add @gfp to percpu_counter_init()
Percpu allocator now supports allocation mask.  Add @gfp to
percpu_counter_init() so that !GFP_KERNEL allocation masks can be used
with percpu_counters too.

We could have left percpu_counter_init() alone and added
percpu_counter_init_gfp(); however, the number of users isn't that
high and introducing _gfp variants to all percpu data structures would
be quite ugly, so let's just do the conversion.  This is the one with
the most users.  Other percpu data structures are a lot easier to
convert.

This patch doesn't make any functional difference.

Eric Dumazet 9fe516ba3f inet: move ipv6only in sock_common
When an UDP application switches from AF_INET to AF_INET6 sockets, we
have a small performance degradation for IPv4 communications because of
extra cache line misses to access ipv6only information.

This can also be noticed for TCP listeners, as ipv6_only_sock() is also
used from __inet_lookup_listener()->compute_score()

This is magnified when SO_REUSEPORT is used.

Move ipv6only into struct sock_common so that it is available at
no extra cost in lookups.

WANG Cong 698365fa18 net: clean up snmp stats code
commit 8f0ea0fe3a (snmp: reduce percpu needs by 50%)
reduced snmp array size to 1, so technically it doesn't have to be
an array any more. What's more, after the following commit:

	commit 933393f58f
	Date:   Thu Dec 22 11:58:51 2011 -0600

	    percpu: Remove irqsafe_cpu_xxx variants

	    We simply say that regular this_cpu use must be safe regardless of
	    preemption and interrupt state.  That has no material change for x86
	    and s390 implementations of this_cpu operations.  However, arches that
	    do not provide their own implementation for this_cpu operations will
	    now get code generated that disables interrupts instead of preemption.

probably no arch wants to have SNMP_ARRAY_SZ == 2. At least after
almost 3 years, no one complains.

So, just convert the array to a single pointer and remove snmp_mib_init()
and snmp_mib_free() as well.

ip_queue_xmit() assumes the skb it has to transmit is attached to an
inet socket. Commit 31c70d5956 ("l2tp: keep original skb ownership")
changed l2tp to not change skb ownership and thus broke this assumption.

One fix is to add a new 'struct sock *sk' parameter to ip_queue_xmit(),
so that we do not assume skb->sk points to the socket used by l2tp
tunnel.

David S. Miller 676d23690f net: Fix use after free by removing length arg from sk_data_ready callbacks.
Several spots in the kernel perform a sequence like:

	skb_queue_tail(&sk->s_receive_queue, skb);
	sk->sk_data_ready(sk, skb->len);

But at the moment we place the SKB onto the socket receive queue it
can be consumed and freed up.  So this skb->len access is potentially
to freed up memory.

Furthermore, the skb->len can be modified by the consumer so it is
possible that the value isn't accurate.

And finally, no actual implementation of this callback actually uses
the length argument.  And since nobody actually cared about it's
value, lots of call sites pass arbitrary values in such as '0' and
even '1'.

So just remove the length argument from the callback, that way there
is no confusion whatsoever and all of these use-after-free cases get
fixed as a side effect.

Based upon a patch by Eric Dumazet and his suggestion to audit this
issue tree-wide.

Hannes Frederic Sowa 8ed1dc44d3 ipv4: introduce hardened ip_no_pmtu_disc mode
This new ip_no_pmtu_disc mode only allowes fragmentation-needed errors
to be honored by protocols which do more stringent validation on the
ICMP's packet payload. This knob is useful for people who e.g. want to
run an unmodified DNS server in a namespace where they need to use pmtu
for TCP connections (as they are used for zone transfers or fallback
for requests) but don't want to use possibly spoofed UDP pmtu information.

Currently the whitelisted protocols are TCP, SCTP and DCCP as they check
if the returned packet is in the window or if the association is valid.

3) Make the xfrm state and policy locks namespace aware. From Fan Du.

4) Remove ancient sleeping when the SA is in acquire state,
   we now queue packets to the policy instead. This replaces the
   sleeping code.

5) Remove FLOWI_FLAG_CAN_SLEEP. This was used to notify xfrm about the
   posibility to sleep. The sleeping code is gone, so remove it.

6) Check user specified spi for IPComp. Thr spi for IPcomp is only
   16 bit wide, so check for a valid value. From Fan Du.

7) Export verify_userspi_info to check for valid user supplied spi ranges
   with pfkey and netlink. From Fan Du.

8) RFC3173 states that if the total size of a compressed payload and the IPComp
   header is not smaller than the size of the original payload, the IP datagram
   must be sent in the original non-compressed form. These packets are dropped
   by the inbound policy check because they are not transformed. Document the need
   to set 'level use' for IPcomp to receive such packets anyway. From Fan Du.

Hannes Frederic Sowa 482fc6094a ipv4: introduce new IP_MTU_DISCOVER mode IP_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE
Sockets marked with IP_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE won't do path mtu discovery,
their sockets won't accept and install new path mtu information and they
will always use the interface mtu for outgoing packets. It is guaranteed
that the packet is not fragmented locally. But we won't set the DF-Flag
on the outgoing frames.

Florian Weimer had the idea to use this flag to ensure DNS servers are
never generating outgoing fragments. They may well be fragmented on the
path, but the server never stores or usees path mtu values, which could
well be forged in an attack.

(The root of the problem with path MTU discovery is that there is
no reliable way to authenticate ICMP Fragmentation Needed But DF Set
messages because they are sent from intermediate routers with their
source addresses, and the IMCP payload will not always contain sufficient
information to identify a flow.)

Recent research in the DNS community showed that it is possible to
implement an attack where DNS cache poisoning is feasible by spoofing
fragments. This work was done by Amir Herzberg and Haya Shulman:
<https://sites.google.com/site/hayashulman/files/fragmentation-poisoning.pdf>

This issue was previously discussed among the DNS community, e.g.
<http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/dnsext/current/msg01204.html>,
without leading to fixes.

This patch depends on the patch "ipv4: fix DO and PROBE pmtu mode
regarding local fragmentation with UFO/CORK" for the enforcement of the
non-fragmentable checks. If other users than ip_append_page/data should
use this semantic too, we have to add a new flag to IPCB(skb)->flags to
suppress local fragmentation and check for this in ip_finish_output.

Many thanks to Florian Weimer for the idea and feedback while implementing
this patch.

Eric Dumazet b44084c2c8 inet: rename ir_loc_port to ir_num
In commit 634fb979e8 ("inet: includes a sock_common in request_sock")
I forgot that the two ports in sock_common do not have same byte order :

skc_dport is __be16 (network order), but skc_num is __u16 (host order)

So sparse complains because ir_loc_port (mapped into skc_num) is
considered as __u16 while it should be __be16

Let rename ir_loc_port to ireq->ir_num (analogy with inet->inet_num),
and perform appropriate htons/ntohs conversions.

Eric Dumazet efe4208f47 ipv6: make lookups simpler and faster
TCP listener refactoring, part 4 :

To speed up inet lookups, we moved IPv4 addresses from inet to struct
sock_common

Now is time to do the same for IPv6, because it permits us to have fast
lookups for all kind of sockets, including upcoming SYN_RECV.

Getting IPv6 addresses in TCP lookups currently requires two extra cache
lines, plus a dereference (and memory stall).

inet6_sk(sk) does the dereference of inet_sk(__sk)->pinet6

This patch is way bigger than its IPv4 counter part, because for IPv4,
we could add aliases (inet_daddr, inet_rcv_saddr), while on IPv6,
it's not doable easily.

inet6_sk(sk)->daddr becomes sk->sk_v6_daddr
inet6_sk(sk)->rcv_saddr becomes sk->sk_v6_rcv_saddr

And timewait socket also have tw->tw_v6_daddr & tw->tw_v6_rcv_saddr
at the same offset.

We get rid of INET6_TW_MATCH() as INET6_MATCH() is now the generic
macro.

Eric Dumazet 05dbc7b594 tcp/dccp: remove twchain
TCP listener refactoring, part 3 :

Our goal is to hash SYN_RECV sockets into main ehash for fast lookup,
and parallel SYN processing.

Current inet_ehash_bucket contains two chains, one for ESTABLISH (and
friend states) sockets, another for TIME_WAIT sockets only.

As the hash table is sized to get at most one socket per bucket, it
makes little sense to have separate twchain, as it makes the lookup
slightly more complicated, and doubles hash table memory usage.

If we make sure all socket types have the lookup keys at the same
offsets, we can use a generic and faster lookup. It turns out TIME_WAIT
and ESTABLISHED sockets already have common lookup fields for IPv4.

[ INET_TW_MATCH() is no longer needed ]

I'll provide a follow-up to factorize IPv6 lookup as well, to remove
INET6_TW_MATCH()

This way, SYN_RECV pseudo sockets will be supported the same.

A new sock_gen_put() helper is added, doing either a sock_put() or
inet_twsk_put() [ and will support SYN_RECV later ].

Note this helper should only be called in real slow path, when rcu
lookup found a socket that was moved to another identity (freed/reused
immediately), but could eventually be used in other contexts, like
sock_edemux()

dmesg | grep "TCP established"

This happens, because sk_clone_lock initializes sk_refcnt to 2, and thus
a single sock_put() is not enough to free the memory. Additionally, things
like xfrm, memcg, cookie_values,... may have been initialized.
We have to free them properly.

This is fixed by forcing a call to tcp_done(), ending up in
inet_csk_destroy_sock, doing the final sock_put(). tcp_done() is necessary,
because it ends up doing all the cleanup on xfrm, memcg, cookie_values,
xfrm,...

Before calling tcp_done, we have to set the socket to SOCK_DEAD, to
force it entering inet_csk_destroy_sock. To avoid the warning in
inet_csk_destroy_sock, inet_num has to be set to 0.
As inet_csk_destroy_sock does a dec on orphan_count, we first have to
increase it.

Calling tcp_done() allows us to remove the calls to
tcp_clear_xmit_timer() and tcp_cleanup_congestion_control().

A similar approach is taken for dccp by calling dccp_done().

This is in the kernel since 093d282321 (tproxy: fix hash locking issue
when using port redirection in __inet_inherit_port()), thus since
version >= 2.6.37.

Eric Dumazet e6c022a4fa tcp: better retrans tracking for defer-accept
For passive TCP connections using TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT facility,
we incorrectly increment req->retrans each time timeout triggers
while no SYNACK is sent.

SYNACK are not sent for TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT that were established (for
which we received the ACK from client). Only the last SYNACK is sent
so that we can receive again an ACK from client, to move the req into
accept queue. We plan to change this later to avoid the useless
retransmit (and potential problem as this SYNACK could be lost)

TCP_INFO later gives wrong information to user, claiming imaginary
retransmits.

Decouple req->retrans field into two independent fields :

num_retrans : number of retransmit
num_timeout : number of timeouts

num_timeout is the counter that is incremented at each timeout,
regardless of actual SYNACK being sent or not, and used to
compute the exponential timeout.

Introduce inet_rtx_syn_ack() helper to increment num_retrans
only if ->rtx_syn_ack() succeeded.

Use inet_rtx_syn_ack() from tcp_check_req() to increment num_retrans
when we re-send a SYNACK in answer to a (retransmitted) SYN.
Prior to this patch, we were not counting these retransmits.

Change tcp_v[46]_rtx_synack() to increment TCP_MIB_RETRANSSEGS
only if a synack packet was successfully queued.

The CCID3 code fails to initialize the trailing padding bytes of struct
tfrc_tx_info added for alignment on 64 bit architectures. It that for
potentially leaks four bytes kernel stack via the getsockopt() syscall.
Add an explicit memset(0) before filling the structure to avoid the

David S. Miller 92101b3b2e ipv4: Prepare for change of rt->rt_iif encoding.
Use inet_iif() consistently, and for TCP record the input interface of
cached RX dst in inet sock.

rt->rt_iif is going to be encoded differently, so that we can
legitimately cache input routes in the FIB info more aggressively.

When the input interface is "use SKB device index" the rt->rt_iif will
be set to zero.

This forces us to move the TCP RX dst cache installation into the ipv4
specific code, and as well it should since doing the route caching for
ipv6 is pointless at the moment since it is not inspected in the ipv6
input paths yet.

Also, remove the unlikely on dst->obsolete, all ipv4 dsts have
obsolete set to a non-zero value to force invocation of the check
callback.

David S. Miller 6700c2709c net: Pass optional SKB and SK arguments to dst_ops->{update_pmtu,redirect}()
This will be used so that we can compose a full flow key.

Even though we have a route in this context, we need more.  In the
future the routes will be without destination address, source address,
etc. keying.  One ipv4 route will cover entire subnets, etc.

In this environment we have to have a way to possess persistent storage
for redirects and PMTU information.  This persistent storage will exist
in the FIB tables, and that's why we'll need to be able to rebuild a
full lookup flow key here.  Using that flow key will do a fib_lookup()
and create/update the persistent entry.

This abstracts away the call to dst_ops->update_pmtu() so that we can
transparently handle the fact that, in the future, the dst itself can
be invalidated by the PMTU update (when we have non-host routes cached
in sockets).

So we try to rebuild the socket cached route after the method
invocation if necessary.

This isn't used by SCTP because it needs to cache dsts per-transport,
and thus will need it's own local version of this helper.

David S. Miller 81aded2467 ipv6: Handle PMTU in ICMP error handlers.
One tricky issue on the ipv6 side vs. ipv4 is that the ICMP callouts
to handle the error pass the 32-bit info cookie in network byte order
whereas ipv4 passes it around in host byte order.

Like the ipv4 side, we have two helper functions.  One for when we
have a socket context and one for when we do not.

ip6ip6 tunnels are not handled here, because they handle PMTU events
by essentially relaying another ICMP packet-too-big message back to
the original sender.

This patch allows us to get rid of rt6_do_pmtu_disc().  It handles all
kinds of situations that simply cannot happen when we do the PMTU
update directly using a fully resolved route.

In fact, the "plen == 128" check in ip6_rt_update_pmtu() can very
likely be removed or changed into a BUG_ON() check.  We should never
have a prefixed ipv6 route when we get there.

Another piece of strange history here is that TCP and DCCP, unlike in
ipv4, never invoke the update_pmtu() method from their ICMP error
handlers.  This is incredibly astonishing since this is the context
where we have the most accurate context in which to make a PMTU
update, namely we have a fully connected socket and associated cached
socket route.

Computers have become a lot faster since we compromised on the

MD5 is a much safer choice, and is inline with both RFC1948 and
other ISS generators (OpenBSD, Solaris, etc.)

Furthermore, only having 24-bits of the sequence number be truly
unpredictable is a very serious limitation.  So the periodic
regeneration and 8-bit counter have been removed.  We compute and
use a full 32-bit sequence number.

For ipv6, DCCP was found to use a 32-bit truncated initial sequence
number (it needs 43-bits) and that is fixed here as well.

window. If the Ack Ratio is greater than the congestion window, it is
reduced. This prevents timeouts caused by an Ack Ratio larger than the
congestion window.

In this situation, we choose to set the Ack Ratio to half the congestion window
(or one if that's zero) so that if we loose one ack we don't trigger a timeout.

Samuel Jero 0ce95dc792 dccp ccid-2: increment cwnd correctly
This patch fixes an issue where CCID-2 will not increase the congestion
window for numerous RTTs after an idle period, application-limited period,
or a loss once the algorithm is in Congestion Avoidance.

What happens is that, when CCID-2 is in Congestion Avoidance mode, it will
increase hc->tx_packets_acked by one for every packet and will increment cwnd
every cwnd packets. However, if there is now an idle period in the connection,
cwnd will be reduced, possibly below the slow start threshold. This will
cause the connection to go into Slow Start. However, in Slow Start CCID-2
performs this test to increment cwnd every second ack:

	++hc->tx_packets_acked == 2

Unfortunately, this will be incorrect, if cwnd previous to the idle period
was larger than 2 and if tx_packets_acked was close to cwnd. For example:
	cwnd=50  and  tx_packets_acked=45.

In this case, the current code, will increment tx_packets_acked until it
equals two, which will only be once tx_packets_acked (an unsigned 32-bit
integer) overflows.

My fix is simply to change that test for tx_packets_acked greater than or
equal to two in slow start.

Samuel Jero d346d886a4 dccp ccid-2: prevent cwnd > Sequence Window
Add a check to prevent CCID-2 from increasing the cwnd greater than the
Sequence Window.

When the congestion window becomes bigger than the Sequence Window, CCID-2
will attempt to keep more data in the network than the DCCP Sequence Window
code considers possible. This results in the Sequence Window code issuing
a Sync, thereby inducing needless overhead. Further, if this occurs at the
sender, CCID-2 will never detect the problem because the Acks it receives
will indicate no losses. I have seen this cause a drop of 1/3rd in throughput
for a connection.

Also add code to adjust the Sequence Window to be about 5 times the number of
packets in the network (RFC 4340, 7.5.2) and to adjust the Ack Ratio so that
the remote Sequence Window will hold about 5 times the number of packets in
the network. This allows the congestion window to increase correctly without
being limited by the Sequence Window.

Gerrit Renker 31daf0393f dccp ccid-2: use feature-negotiation to report Ack Ratio changes
This uses the new feature-negotiation framework to signal Ack Ratio changes,
as required by RFC 4341, sec. 6.1.2.

That raises some problems with CCID-2, which at the moment can not cope
gracefully with Ack Ratios > 1. Since these issues are not directly related
to feature negotiation, they are marked by a FIXME.

Gerrit Renker d6916f87ca dccp: support for the exchange of NN options in established state 1/2
In contrast to static feature negotiation at the begin of a connection, this
patch introduces support for exchange of dynamically changing options.

Such an update/exchange is necessary in at least two cases:
 * CCID-2's Ack Ratio (RFC 4341, 6.1.2) which changes during the connection;
 * Sequence Window values that, as per RFC 4340, 7.5.2, should be sent "as
   the connection progresses".

Both are non-negotiable (NN) features, which means that no new capabilities
are negotiated, but rather that changes in known parameters are brought
up-to-date at either end.

Thse characteristics are reflected by the implementation:
 * only NN options can be exchanged after connection setup;
 * an ack is scheduled directly after activation to speed up the update;
 * CCIDs may request changes to an NN feature even if a negotiation for that
   feature is already underway: this is required by CCID-2, where changes in
   cwnd necessitate Ack Ratio changes, such that the previous Ack Ratio (which
   is still being negotiated) would cause irrecoverable RTO timeouts (thanks
   to work by Samuel Jero).

Gerrit Renker 113ced1f52 dccp ccid-2: Perform congestion-window validation
CCID-2's cwnd increases like TCP during slow-start, which has implications for
 * the local Sequence Window value (should be > cwnd),
 * the Ack Ratio value.
Hence an exponential growth, if it does not reflect the actual network
conditions, can quickly lead to instability.

This patch adds congestion-window validation (RFC2861) to CCID-2:
 * cwnd is constrained if the sender is application limited;
 * cwnd is reduced after a long idle period, as suggested in the '90 paper
   by Van Jacobson, in RFC 2581 (sec. 4.1);
 * cwnd is never reduced below the RFC 3390 initial window.

As marked in the comments, the code is actually almost a direct copy of the
TCP congestion-window-validation algorithms. By continuing this work, it may
in future be possible to use the TCP code (not possible at the moment).

The mechanism can be turned off using a module parameter. Sampling of the
currently-used window (moving-maximum) is however done constantly; this is
used to determine the expected window, which can be exploited to regulate
DCCP's Sequence Window value.

This patch also sets slow-start-after-idle (RFC 4341, 5.1), i.e. it behaves like
TCP when net.ipv4.tcp_slow_start_after_idle = 1.
