* tcp: resets are misroutedAlexey Kuznetsov2012-10-122-4/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After commit e2446eaa ("tcp_v4_send_reset: binding oif to iif in no sock case").. tcp resets are always lost, when routing is asymmetric. Yes, backing out that patch will result in misrouting of resets for dead connections which used interface binding when were alive, but we actually cannot do anything here. What's died that's died and correct handling normal unbound connections is obviously a priority. Comment to comment: > This has few benefits: > 1. tcp_v6_send_reset already did that. It was done to route resets for IPv6 link local addresses. It was a mistake to do so for global addresses. The patch fixes this as well. Actually, the problem appears to be even more serious than guaranteed loss of resets. As reported by Sergey Soloviev <sol@eqv.ru>, those misrouted resets create a lot of arp traffic and huge amount of unresolved arp entires putting down to knees NAT firewalls which use asymmetric routing.

* pktgen: fix crash when generating IPv6 packetsAmerigo Wang2012-10-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For IPv6, sizeof(struct ipv6hdr) = 40, thus the following expression will result negative: datalen = pkt_dev->cur_pkt_size - 14 - sizeof(struct ipv6hdr) - sizeof(struct udphdr) - pkt_dev->pkt_overhead; And, the check "if (datalen < sizeof(struct pktgen_hdr))" will be passed as "datalen" is promoted to unsigned, therefore will cause a crash later. This is a quick fix by checking if "datalen" is negative. The following patch will increase the default value of 'min_pkt_size' for IPv6. This bug should exist for a long time, so Cc -stable too.

* | RDS: fix rds-ping spinlock recursionjeff.liu2012-10-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the revised patch for fixing rds-ping spinlock recursion according to Venkat's suggestions. RDS ping/pong over TCP feature has been broken for years(2.6.39 to 3.6.0) since we have to set TCP cork and call kernel_sendmsg() between ping/pong which both need to lock "struct sock *sk". However, this lock has already been hold before rds_tcp_data_ready() callback is triggerred. As a result, we always facing spinlock resursion which would resulting in system panic. Given that RDS ping is only used to test the connectivity and not for serious performance measurements, we can queue the pong transmit to rds_wq as a delayed response.

| * | rbtree: empty nodes have no colorMichel Lespinasse2012-10-091-1/+0

We can make use of this property to simplify the code emitted by the RB_EMPTY_NODE and RB_CLEAR_NODE macros. Also, we can get rid of the rb_init_node function which had been introduced by commit 88d19cf37952 ("timers: Add rb_init_node() to allow for stack allocated rb nodes") to avoid some issue with the empty node's color not being initialized. I'm not sure what the RB_EMPTY_NODE checks in rb_prev() / rb_next() are doing there, though. axboe introduced them in commit 10fd48f2376d ("rbtree: fixed reversed RB_EMPTY_NODE and rb_next/prev"). The way I see it, the 'empty node' abstraction is only used by rbtree users to flag nodes that they haven't inserted in any rbtree, so asking the predecessor or successor of such nodes doesn't make any sense. One final rb_init_node() caller was recently added in sysctl code to implement faster sysctl name lookups. This code doesn't make use of RB_EMPTY_NODE at all, and from what I could see it only called rb_init_node() under the mistaken assumption that such initialization was required before node insertion.

It seems we should not cache the RTCF_DOREDIRECT flag in nh_rth_input because the same fib_info can be used for traffic that is not redirected, eg. from other input devices or from sources that are not in same subnet. As result, we have to disable the caching of RTCF_DOREDIRECT flag and to force source validation for the case when forwarding traffic to the input device. If traffic comes from directly connected source we allow redirection as it was done before both changes. Avoid setting RTCF_DOREDIRECT if IN_DEV_TX_REDIRECTS is disabled, this can avoid source address validation and to help caching the routes. After the change "Adjust semantics of rt->rt_gateway" (commit f8126f1d51) we should make sure our ICMP_REDIR_HOST messages contain daddr instead of 0.0.0.0 when target is directly connected.

As rx_handlers do not necessarily return RX_HANDLER_ANOTHER, this could cause frames for unknown vlans to be delivered to the protocol stack as if they had been received untagged. For example, if an ipv6 router advertisement that's tagged for a locally not configured vlan is received on an interface with macvlan interfaces attached, macvlan's rx_handler returns RX_HANDLER_PASS after delivering the frame to the macvlan interfaces, which caused it to be passed to the protocol stack, leading to ipv6 addresses for the announced prefix being configured even though those are completely unusable on the underlying interface. The fix moves marking as PACKET_OTHERHOST after the rx_handler so the rx_handler, if there is one, sees the frame unchanged, but afterwards, before the frame is delivered to the protocol stack, it gets marked whether there is an rx_handler or not.

In this case, napi_complete()/napi_gro_flush() are not called. Another problem is that gro_list is flushed in non friendly way : We scan the list and complete packets in the reverse order. (youngest packets first, oldest packets last) This defeats priorities that sender could have cooked. Since GRO currently only store TCP packets, we dont really notice the bug because of retransmits, but this behavior can add unexpected latencies, particularly on mice flows clamped by elephant flows. This patch makes sure no packet can stay more than 1 ms in queue, and only in stress situations. It also complete packets in the right order to minimize latencies.

With this patch we always invalidate or update the route on pmtu events. Signed-off-by: Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@secunet.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This is probably not needed for old kernels, since an ethernet frame cannot contain only an ethernet header, but the recent GRO addition to tunnels makes this patch needed. Also skb_gro_reset_offset() can be static, it actually allows compiler to inline it.

Generic rx path skb allocation is now using page fragments for efficient GRO / TCP coalescing, and recyling a tx skb for rx path is not worth the pain. Last identified bug is that fat skbs can be recycled and it can endup using high order pages after few iterations. With help from Maxime Bizon, who pointed out that commit 87151b8689d (net: allow pskb_expand_head() to get maximum tailroom) introduced this regression for recycled skbs. Instead of fixing this bug, lets remove skb recycling. Drivers wanting really hot skbs should use build_skb() anyway, to allocate/populate sk_buff right before netif_receive_skb() Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Maxime Bizon <mbizon@freebox.fr> Signed-off-by: David S.

The sender will receive a TIPC_ERR_OVERLOAD message when this occurs and drop it's side of the connection, leaving it stale on the receiver end. By increasing the sk_rcvbuf to a 'worst case' value, we avoid the overload caused by a full backlog queue and the flow control will work properly. This worst case value is the max TIPC message size times the flow control window, multiplied by two because a sender will transmit up to double the window size before a port is marked congested. We multiply this by 2 to account for the sk_buff and other overheads. Signed-off-by: Erik Hugne <erik.hugne@ericsson.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Suppose we have an SCTP connection with two paths. After connection is established, path1 is not available, thus this path is marked as inactive. Then traffic goes through path2, but for some reasons packets are delayed (after rto.max). Because packets are delayed, the retransmit mechanism will switch again to path1. At this time, we receive a delayed SACK from path2. When we update the state of the path in sctp_check_transmitted(), we do not take into account the source address of the SACK, hence we update the wrong path.

This was hard to reproduce but the symptom was that packets were delivered to local host instead of being forwarded. David suggested to add fib_type to fib_info so that we dont inadvertently share same fib_info for different purposes. With help from Julian Anastasov who provided very helpful hints, reproduced here : <quote> Can it be a problem related to fib_info reuse from different routes. For example, when local IP address is created for subnet we have: broadcast 192.168.0.255 dev DEV proto kernel scope link src 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.0/24 dev DEV proto kernel scope link src 192.168.0.1 local 192.168.0.1 dev DEV proto kernel scope host src 192.168.0.1 The "dev DEV proto kernel scope link src 192.168.0.1" is a reused fib_info structure where we put cached routes. The result can be same fib_info for 192.168.0.255 and 192.168.0.0/24. RTN_BROADCAST is cached only for input routes. Incoming broadcast to 192.168.0.255 can be cached and can cause problems for traffic forwarded to 192.168.0.0/24. So, this patch should solve the problem because it separates the broadcast from unicast traffic. And the ip_route_input_slow caching will work for local and broadcast input routes (above routes 1 and 3) just because they differ in scope and use different fib_info. </quote> Many thanks to Chris Clayton for his patience and help.
