net: route dump netlink NLM_F_MULTI flag missing

2019-08-24T23:49:48+00:00

An excerpt from netlink(7) man page, In multipart messages (multiple nlmsghdr headers with associated payload in one byte stream) the first and all following headers have the NLM_F_MULTI flag set, except for the last header which has the type NLMSG_DONE. but, after (ee28906) there is a missing NLM_F_MULTI flag in the middle of a FIB dump. The result is user space applications following above man page excerpt may get confused and may stop parsing msg believing something went wrong. In the golang netlink lib [0] the library logic stops parsing believing the message is not a multipart message. Found this running Cilium[1] against net-next while adding a feature to auto-detect routes. I noticed with multiple route tables we no longer could detect the default routes on net tree kernels because the library logic was not returning them. Fix this by handling the fib_dump_info_fnhe() case the same way the fib_dump_info() handles it by passing the flags argument through the call chain and adding a flags argument to rt_fill_info(). Tested with Cilium stack and auto-detection of routes works again. Also annotated libs to dump netlink msgs and inspected NLM_F_MULTI and NLMSG_DONE flags look correct after this. Note: In inet_rtm_getroute() pass rt_fill_info() '0' for flags the same as is done for fib_dump_info() so this looks correct to me.

The new route handling in ip_mc_finish_output() from 'net' overlapped with the new support for returning congestion notifications from BPF programs. In order to handle this I had to take the dev_loopback_xmit() calls out of the switch statement. The aquantia driver conflicts were simple overlapping changes. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv4: reset rt_iif for recirculated mcast/bcast out pkts

2019-06-26T19:40:10+00:00

Multicast or broadcast egress packets have rt_iif set to the oif. These packets might be recirculated back as input and lookup to the raw sockets may fail because they are bound to the incoming interface (skb_iif). If rt_iif is not zero, during the lookup, inet_iif() function returns rt_iif instead of skb_iif. Hence, the lookup fails. v2: Make it non vrf specific (David Ahern). Reword the changelog to reflect it. Signed-off-by: Stephen Suryaputra Reviewed-by: David Ahern Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv4: Dump route exceptions if requested

2019-06-24T17:18:48+00:00

Since commit 4895c771c7f0 ("ipv4: Add FIB nexthop exceptions."), cached exception routes are stored as a separate entity, so they are not dumped on a FIB dump, even if the RTM_F_CLONED flag is passed. This implies that the command 'ip route list cache' doesn't return any result anymore. If the RTM_F_CLONED is passed, and strict checking requested, retrieve nexthop exception routes and dump them. If no strict checking is requested, filtering can't be performed consistently: dump everything in that case. With this, we need to add an argument to the netlink callback in order to track how many entries were already dumped for the last leaf included in a partial netlink dump. A single additional argument is sufficient, even if we traverse logically nested structures (nexthop objects, hash table buckets, bucket chains): it doesn't matter if we stop in the middle of any of those, because they are always traversed the same way. As an example, s_i values in [], s_fa values in (): node (fa) #1 [1] nexthop #1 bucket #1 -> #0 in chain (1) bucket #2 -> #0 in chain (2) -> #1 in chain (3) -> #2 in chain (4) bucket #3 -> #0 in chain (5) -> #1 in chain (6) nexthop #2 bucket #1 -> #0 in chain (7) -> #1 in chain (8) bucket #2 -> #0 in chain (9) -- node (fa) #2 [2] nexthop #1 bucket #1 -> #0 in chain (1) -> #1 in chain (2) bucket #2 -> #0 in chain (3) it doesn't matter if we stop at (3), (4), (7) for "node #1", or at (2) for "node #2": walking flattens all that. It would even be possible to drop the distinction between the in-tree (s_i) and in-node (s_fa) counter, but a further improvement might advise against this. This is only as accurate as the existing tracking mechanism for leaves: if a partial dump is restarted after exceptions are removed or expired, we might skip some non-dumped entries. To improve this, we could attach a 'sernum' attribute (similar to the one used for IPv6) to nexthop entities, and bump this counter whenever exceptions change: having a distinction between the two counters would make this more convenient. Listing of exception routes (modified routes pre-3.5) was tested against these versions of kernel and iproute2: iproute2 kernel 4.14.0 4.15.0 4.19.0 5.0.0 5.1.0 3.5-rc4 + + + + + 4.4 4.9 4.14 4.15 4.19 5.0 5.1 fixed + + + + + v7: - Move loop over nexthop objects to route.c, and pass struct fib_info and table ID to it, not a struct fib_alias (suggested by David Ahern) - While at it, note that the NULL check on fa->fa_info is redundant, and the check on RTNH_F_DEAD is also not consistent with what's done with regular route listing: just keep it for nhc_flags - Rename entry point function for dumping exceptions to fib_dump_info_fnhe(), and rearrange arguments for consistency with fib_dump_info() - Rename fnhe_dump_buckets() to fnhe_dump_bucket() and make it handle one bucket at a time - Expand commit message to describe why we can have a single "skip" counter for all exceptions stored in bucket chains in nexthop objects (suggested by David Ahern) v6: - Rebased onto net-next - Loop over nexthop paths too. Move loop over fnhe buckets to route.c, avoids need to export rt_fill_info() and to touch exceptions from fib_trie.c. Pass NULL as flow to rt_fill_info(), it now allows that (suggested by David Ahern) Fixes: 4895c771c7f0 ("ipv4: Add FIB nexthop exceptions.")

ipv4: Add helpers for neigh lookup for nexthop

2019-04-08T22:22:41+00:00

A common theme in the output path is looking up a neigh entry for a nexthop, either the gateway in an rtable or a fallback to the daddr in the skb: nexthop = (__force u32)rt_nexthop(rt, ip_hdr(skb)->daddr); neigh = __ipv4_neigh_lookup_noref(dev, nexthop); if (unlikely(!neigh)) neigh = __neigh_create(&arp_tbl, &nexthop, dev, false); To allow the nexthop to be an IPv6 address we need to consider the family of the nexthop and then call __ipv{4,6}_neigh_lookup_noref based on it. To make this simpler, add a ip_neigh_gw4 helper similar to ip_neigh_gw6 added in an earlier patch which handles: neigh = __ipv4_neigh_lookup_noref(dev, nexthop); if (unlikely(!neigh)) neigh = __neigh_create(&arp_tbl, &nexthop, dev, false); And then add a second one, ip_neigh_for_gw, that calls either ip_neigh_gw4 or ip_neigh_gw6 based on the address family of the gateway. Update the output paths in the VRF driver and core v4 code to use ip_neigh_for_gw simplifying the family based lookup and making both ready for a v6 nexthop. ipv4_neigh_lookup has a different need - the potential to resolve a passed in address in addition to any gateway in the rtable or skb. Since this is a one-off, add ip_neigh_gw4 and ip_neigh_gw6 diectly. The difference between __neigh_create used by the helpers and neigh_create called by ipv4_neigh_lookup is taking a refcount, so add rcu_read_lock_bh and bump the refcnt on the neigh entry.

ipv4: Add support to rtable for ipv6 gateway

2019-04-08T22:22:40+00:00

Add support for an IPv6 gateway to rtable. Since a gateway is either IPv4 or IPv6, make it a union with rt_gw4 where rt_gw_family decides which address is in use. When dumping the route data, encode an ipv6 nexthop using RTA_VIA. Signed-off-by: David Ahern Reviewed-by: Ido Schimmel Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
