Included change: - reassign pointers to data after skb reallocation to avoid kernel paging errors Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
-
Linus Lüssing authored
There are several functions which might reallocate skb data. Currently some places keep reusing their old ethhdr pointer regardless of whether they became invalid after such a reallocation or not. This potentially leads to kernel paging errors. This patch fixes these by refetching the ethdr pointer after the potential reallocations.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== The following patchset contains four netfilter fixes, they are: * Fix possible invalid access and mangling of the TCPMSS option in xt_TCPMSS. This was spotted by Julian Anastasov. * Fix possible off by one access and mangling of the TCP packet in xt_TCPOPTSTRIP, also spotted by Julian Anastasov. * Fix possible information leak due to missing initialization of one padding field of several structures that are included in nfqueue and nflog netlink messages, from Dan Carpenter. * Fix TCP window tracking with Fast Open, from Yuchung Cheng. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Yuchung Cheng authored
Currently the conntrack checks if the ending sequence of a packet falls within the observed receive window. However it does so even if it has not observe any packet from the remote yet and uses an uninitialized receive window (td_maxwin). If a connection uses Fast Open to send a SYN-data packet which is dropped afterward in the network. The subsequent SYNs retransmits will all fail this check and be discarded, leading to a connection timeout. This is because the SYN retransmit does not contain data payload so end == initial sequence number (isn) + 1 sender->td_end == isn + syn_data_len receiver->td_maxwin == 0 The fix is to only apply this check after td_maxwin is initialized.

This patch fixed the condition of extend_desc for jumbo frame. There is no check routine for extend_desc in the stmmac_jumbo_frm function.

This is a regression introduced by: commit fe5c3561 Author: stephen hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org> Date: Sat Jul 13 10:18:18 2013 -0700 vxlan: add necessary locking on device removal The problem is that vxlan_dellink(), which is called with RTNL lock held, tries to flush the workqueue synchronously, but apparently igmp_join and igmp_leave work need to hold RTNL lock too, therefore we have a soft lockup! As suggested by Stephen, probably the flush_workqueue can just be removed and let the normal refcounting work. The workqueue has a reference to device and socket, therefore the cleanups should work correctly.

Fix ipgre_header() (header_ops->create) to return the correct amount of bytes pushed. Most callers of dev_hard_header() seem to care only if it was success, but af_packet.c uses it as offset to the skb to copy from userspace only once. In practice this fixes packet socket sendto()/sendmsg() to gre tunnels. Regression introduced in c5441932 ("GRE: Refactor GRE tunneling code.")

John W. Linville says: ==================== This is a batch of fixes intended for the 3.11 queue... Regarding the mac80211 (and related) bits, Johannes says: "I have a fix from Chris for an infinite loop along with fixes from myself to prevent it entering the loop to start with (continue using disabled channels, many thanks to Chris for his debug/test help) and a workaround for broken APs that advertise a bad HT primary channel in their beacons. Additionally, a fix for another attrbuf race in mac80211 and a fix to clean up properly while P2P GO interfaces go down." Along with that... Solomon Peachy corrects a range check in cw1200 that would lead to a BUG_ON when starting AP mode. Stanislaw Gruszka provides an iwl4965 patch to power-up the device earlier (avoiding microcode errors), and another iwl4965 fix that resets the firmware after turning rfkill off (resolving a bug in the Red Hat Bugzilla). Please let me know if there are problems! ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

In case a subtree did not match we currently stop backtracking and return NULL (root table from fib_lookup). This could yield in invalid routing table lookups when using subtrees. Instead continue to backtrack until a valid subtree or node is found and return this match. Also remove unneeded NULL check.

While investigating about strange increase of retransmit rates on hosts ~24 days after boot, Van found hystart was disabled if ca->epoch_start was 0, as following condition is true when tcp_time_stamp high order bit is set. (s32)(tcp_time_stamp - ca->epoch_start) < HZ Quoting Van : At initialization & after every loss ca->epoch_start is set to zero so I believe that the above line will turn off hystart as soon as the 2^31 bit is set in tcp_time_stamp & hystart will stay off for 24 days. I think we've observed that cubic's restart is too aggressive without hystart so this might account for the higher drop rate we observe.

commit 17a6e9f1 ("tcp_cubic: fix clock dependency") added an overflow error in bictcp_update() in following code : /* change the unit from HZ to bictcp_HZ */ t = ((tcp_time_stamp + msecs_to_jiffies(ca->delay_min>>3) - ca->epoch_start) << BICTCP_HZ) / HZ; Because msecs_to_jiffies() being unsigned long, compiler does implicit type promotion. We really want to constrain (tcp_time_stamp - ca->epoch_start) to a signed 32bit value, or else 't' has unexpected high values. This bugs triggers an increase of retransmit rates ~24 days after boot [1], as the high order bit of tcp_time_stamp flips. [1] for hosts with HZ=1000 Big thanks to Van Jacobson for spotting this problem.

Commit 91657eaf ("xfrm: take net hdr len into account for esp payload size calculation") introduced a possible interger overflow in esp{4,6}_get_mtu() handlers in case of x->props.mode equals XFRM_MODE_TUNNEL. Thus, the following expression will overflow unsigned int net_adj; ... <case ipv{4,6} XFRM_MODE_TUNNEL> net_adj = 0; ... return ((mtu - x->props.header_len - crypto_aead_authsize(esp->aead) - net_adj) & ~(align - 1)) + (net_adj - 2); where (net_adj - 2) would be evaluated as <foo> + (0 - 2) in an unsigned context. Fix it by simply removing brackets as those operations here do not need to have special precedence.

Vlan devices are LLTX and don't update their own trans_start, so if dev_trans_start has to be called with a vlan device then 0 or a stale value will be returned. Currently the bonding is the only such user, and it's needed for proper arp monitoring when the slaves are vlans. Fix this by extracting the vlan's real device trans_start.

commit df8ef8f3 macvlan: add FDB bridge ops and macvlan flags added a flags field to macvlan, which can be controlled from userspace. The idea is to make the interface future-proof so we can add flags and not new fields. However, flags value isn't validated, as a result, userspace can't detect which flags are supported.
