On receiving a packet too big icmp error we check if our current cached dst_entry in the socket is still valid. This validation check did not care about the expiration of the (cached) route. The error path I traced down: The socket receives a packet too big mtu notification. It still has a valid dst_entry and thus issues the ip6_rt_pmtu_update on this dst_entry, setting RTF_EXPIRE and updates the dst.expiration value (which could fail because of not up-to-date expiration values, see previous patch). In some seldom cases we race with a) the ip6_fib gc or b) another routing lookup which would result in a recreation of the cached rt6_info from its parent non-cached rt6_info. While copying the rt6_info we reinitialize the metrics store by copying it over from the parent thus invalidating the just installed pmtu update (both dsts use the same key to the inetpeer storage). The dst_entry with the just invalidated metrics data would just get its RTF_EXPIRES flag cleared and would continue to stay valid for the socket. We should have not issued the pmtu update on the already expired dst_entry in the first placed. By checking the expiration on the dst entry and doing a relookup in case it is out of date we close the race because we would install a new rt6_info into the fib before we issue the pmtu update, thus closing this race. Not reliably updating the dst.expire value was fixed by the patch "ipv6: reset dst.expires value when clearing expire flag". Reported-by: Steinar H.

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 ecd98837 ("ipv6: fix race condition regarding dst->expires and dst->from"). Reported-by: Steinar H.

Right now skb->data is passed to rx_hook() even if the skb has not been linearised and without giving rx_hook() a way to linearise it. Change the rx_hook() interface and make it accept the skb and the offset to the UDP payload as arguments. rx_hook() is also renamed to rx_skb_hook() to ensure that out of the tree users notice the API change. In this way any rx_skb_hook() implementation can perform all the needed operations to properly (and safely) access the skb data.

In every netconsole option that can be set through configfs there's a race when checking for nt->enabled since it can be modified at the same time. Probably the most damage can be done by store_enabled when racing with another instance of itself. Fix all the races with one stone by moving the mutex lock around the ->store call for all options.

We need to disable the netconsole (enabled = 0) before setting nt->np.dev to NULL because otherwise we might still have users after the netpoll_cleanup() since nt->enabled is set afterwards and we can have a message which will result in a NULL pointer dereference. It is very easy to hit dereferences all over the netpoll_send_udp function by running the following two loops in parallel: while [ 1 ]; do echo 1 > enabled; echo 0 > enabled; done; while [ 1 ]; do echo 00:11:22:33:44:55 > remote_mac; done; (the second loop is to generate messages, it can be done by anything) We're safe to set nt->np.dev = NULL and nt->enabled = 0 with the spinlock since it's required in the write_msg() function.

Commit 8a07eb0a ("sctp: Add ASCONF operation on the single-homed host") implemented possible use of IPv4 addresses with non SCTP_ADDR_SRC state as source address when sending ASCONF (ADD) packets, but IPv6 part for that was not implemented in 8a07eb0a. Therefore, as this is not restricted to IPv4-only, fix this up to allow the same for IPv6 addresses in SCTP.

While this commit was a good attempt to fix issues occuring when no multicast querier is present, this commit still has two more issues: 1) There are cases where mdb entries do not expire even if there is a querier present. The bridge will unnecessarily continue flooding multicast packets on the according ports. 2) Never removing an mdb entry could be exploited for a Denial of Service by an attacker on the local link, slowly, but steadily eating up all memory. Actually, this commit became obsolete with "bridge: disable snooping if there is no querier" (b00589af) which included fixes for a few more cases. Therefore reverting the following commits (the commit stated in the commit message plus three of its follow up fixes): ==================== Revert "bridge: update mdb expiration timer upon reports." This reverts commit f144febd. Revert "bridge: do not call setup_timer() multiple times" This reverts commit 1faabf2a.

The result of the store-clock-fast (STCKF) instruction is a bit fuzzy. It can happen that the value stored on one CPU is smaller than the value stored on another CPU, although the order of the stores is the other way around. This can cause deltas of get_tod_clock() values to become negative when they should not be. We need to be more careful with store-clock-fast, this patch partially reverts git commit e4b7b4238e666682555461fa52eecd74652f36bb "time: always use stckf instead of stck if available". The get_tod_clock() function now uses the store-clock-extended (STCKE) instruction. get_tod_clock_fast() can be used if the fuzziness of store-clock-fast is acceptable e.g. for wait loops local to a CPU.

For passive TCP connections, upon receiving the ACK that completes the 3WHS, make sure we set our pacing rate after we get our first RTT sample. On passive TCP connections, when we receive the ACK completing the 3WHS we do not take an RTT sample in tcp_ack(), but rather in tcp_synack_rtt_meas(). So upon receiving the ACK that completes the 3WHS, tcp_ack() leaves sk_pacing_rate at its initial value. Originally the initial sk_pacing_rate value was 0, so passive-side connections defaulted to sysctl_tcp_min_tso_segs (2 segs) in skbuffs made in the first RTT. With a default initial cwnd of 10 packets, this happened to be correct for RTTs 5ms or bigger, so it was hard to see problems in WAN or emulated WAN testing. Since 7eec4174 ("pkt_sched: fq: fix non TCP flows pacing"), the initial sk_pacing_rate is 0xffffffff. So after that change, passive TCP connections were keeping this value (and using large numbers of segments per skbuff) until receiving an ACK for data.

When IFF_ALLMULTI flag is set on interface and IFF_PROMISC isn't, emac_dev_mcast_set should only enable RX of multicasts and reset MACHASH registers. It does this, but afterwards it either sets up multicast MACs filtering or disables RX of multicasts and resets MACHASH registers again, rendering IFF_ALLMULTI flag useless. This patch fixes emac_dev_mcast_set, so that multicast MACs filtering and disabling of RX of multicasts are skipped when IFF_ALLMULTI flag is set. Tested with kernel 2.6.37.

Routes need to be probed asynchronous otherwise the call stack gets exhausted when the kernel attemps to deliver another skb inline, like e.g. xt_TEE does, and we probe at the same time. We update neigh->updated still at once, otherwise we would send to many probes.

Julian Anastasov says: ==================== ipv6: use rt6i_gateway as nexthop The following patchset makes sure that rt6i_gateway contains valid nexthop information in all cases, so that we can use different nexthop for sending. The first patch is a simple fix that makes IPVS, TEE, RAW(hdrincl) and RTF_DYNAMIC(without RTF_GATEWAY) work as before 3.9. There is a single corner case not solved by this patch: RAW(hdrincl) or TEE using local address for nexthop, a silly feature, I guess. In this case we see zeroes in rt6i_gateway because we get route that is not cloned. This is solved only with patch 2. The second patch is an optimization that makes sure all resulting routes have rt6i_gateway filled, so that we can avoid the complex ipv6_addr_any() call added to rt6_nexthop() by patch 1. And it sets rt6i_gateway for local routes, a case not handled by patch 1. The third patch uses the new rt6_nexthop() function to fix the matching of gateways in the same way as commit bbb5823c ("netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix rt_gateway checks for H.323 helper") fixes nf_conntrack_h323_main.c for IPv4. Currently, it depends on the new definition of rt6_nexthop() in patch 2. Actually, if patch 2 is applied, patch 3 becomes a cosmetic change. I see the following two alternatives for applying these patches: 1. Linger patch 2 in net-next to avoid surprises in the upcoming release. In this case patch 3 can be reworked not to depend on the new rt6_nexthop() definition in patch 2. I guess this is a better option, so that patch 2 can be reviewed and tested for longer time. 2. Include all 3 patches in net tree - more risky because this is my first attempt to change IPv6. Here is the situation as handled by patch 2: In IPv6 the resolved routes are always host routes (/128 with DST_HOST), mostly cloned ones. We allow routes in FIB to contain rt6i_gateway with zeroes (eg. for local subnets) but on cloning we can fill the rt6i_gateway field in result. This works even without this patchset. There is a single special case where dst is provided as skb_dst directly without a routing call: icmp6_dst_alloc(). It is a private dst allocated just for the particular ICMP packet. Patch 2 fills rt6i_gateway in this case, needed for the new rt6_nexthop() simplification. The last case is addrconf_dst_alloc(), it can put in FIB local/anycast routes when addresses are added. Patch 2 needs to fill rt6i_gateway in this case because such routes are returned without cloning. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Now when rt6_nexthop() can return nexthop address we can use it for proper nexthop comparison of directly connected destinations.

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.
