* net: fix the counter ICMP_MIB_INERRORS/ICMP6_MIB_INERRORSDuan Jiong2014-07-311-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When dealing with ICMPv[46] Error Message, function icmp_socket_deliver() and icmpv6_notify() do some valid checks on packet's length, but then some protocols check packet's length redaudantly. So remove those duplicated statements, and increase counter ICMP_MIB_INERRORS/ICMP6_MIB_INERRORS in function icmp_socket_deliver() and icmpv6_notify() respectively. In addition, add missed counter in udp6/udplite6 when socket is NULL.

* ipv4: icmp: Fix pMTU handling for rare caseEdward Allcutt2014-07-071-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some older router implementations still send Fragmentation Needed errors with the Next-Hop MTU field set to zero. This is explicitly described as an eventuality that hosts must deal with by the standard (RFC 1191) since older standards specified that those bits must be zero. Linux had a generic (for all of IPv4) implementation of the algorithm described in the RFC for searching a list of MTU plateaus for a good value. Commit 46517008e116 ("ipv4: Kill ip_rt_frag_needed().") removed this as part of the changes to remove the routing cache. Subsequently any Fragmentation Needed packet with a zero Next-Hop MTU has been discarded without being passed to the per-protocol handlers or notifying userspace for raw sockets. When there is a router which does not implement RFC 1191 on an MTU limited path then this results in stalled connections since large packets are discarded and the local protocols are not notified so they never attempt to lower the pMTU. One example I have seen is an OpenBSD router terminating IPSec tunnels. It's worth pointing out that this case is distinct from the BSD 4.2 bug which incorrectly calculated the Next-Hop MTU since the commit in question dismissed that as a valid concern. All of the per-protocols handlers implement the simple approach from RFC 1191 of immediately falling back to the minimum value. Although this is sub-optimal it is vastly preferable to connections hanging indefinitely. Remove the Next-Hop MTU != 0 check and allow such packets to follow the normal path.

* net: add a sysctl to reflect the fwmark on repliesLorenzo Colitti2014-05-131-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Kernel-originated IP packets that have no user socket associated with them (e.g., ICMP errors and echo replies, TCP RSTs, etc.) are emitted with a mark of zero. Add a sysctl to make them have the same mark as the packet they are replying to. This allows an administrator that wishes to do so to use mark-based routing, firewalling, etc. for these replies by marking the original packets inbound. Tested using user-mode linux: - ICMP/ICMPv6 echo replies and errors. - TCP RST packets (IPv4 and IPv6). Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Colitti <lorenzo@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* ipv4: introduce hardened ip_no_pmtu_disc modeHannes Frederic Sowa2014-01-131-4/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* ipv4: processing ancillary IP_TOS or IP_TTLFrancesco Fusco2013-09-281-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If IP_TOS or IP_TTL are specified as ancillary data, then sendmsg() sends out packets with the specified TTL or TOS overriding the socket values specified with the traditional setsockopt(). The struct inet_cork stores the values of TOS, TTL and priority that are passed through the struct ipcm_cookie. If there are user-specified TOS (tos != -1) or TTL (ttl != 0) in the struct ipcm_cookie, these values are used to override the per-socket values. In case of TOS also the priority is changed accordingly. Two helper functions get_rttos and get_rtconn_flags are defined to take into account the presence of a user specified TOS value when computing RT_TOS and RT_CONN_FLAGS.

* net: ipv6: Add IPv6 support to the ping socket.Lorenzo Colitti2013-05-251-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds the ability to send ICMPv6 echo requests without a raw socket. The equivalent ability for ICMPv4 was added in 2011. Instead of having separate code paths for IPv4 and IPv6, make most of the code in net/ipv4/ping.c dual-stack and only add a few IPv6-specific bits (like the protocol definition) to a new net/ipv6/ping.c. Hopefully this will reduce divergence and/or duplication of bugs in the future. Caveats: - Setting options via ancillary data (e.g., using IPV6_PKTINFO to specify the outgoing interface) is not yet supported. - There are no separate security settings for IPv4 and IPv6; everything is controlled by /proc/net/ipv4/ping_group_range. - The proc interface does not yet display IPv6 ping sockets properly.

* ipv4: Prepare for change of rt->rt_iif encoding.David S. Miller2012-07-231-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The specific destination is the host we direct unicast replies to. Usually this is the original packet source address, but if we are responding to a multicast or broadcast packet we have to use something different. Specifically we must use the source address we would use if we were to send a packet to the unicast source of the original packet. The routing cache precomputes this value, but we want to remove that precomputation because it creates a hard dependency on the expensive rpfilter source address validation which we'd like to make cheaper. There are only three places where this matters: 1) ICMP replies. 2) pktinfo CMSG 3) IP options Now there will be no real users of rt->rt_spec_dst and we can simply remove it altogether.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is zero point to this function. It's only real substance is to perform an extremely outdated BSD4.2 ICMP check, which we can safely remove. If you really have a MTU limited link being routed by a BSD4.2 derived system, here's a nickel go buy yourself a real router. The other actions of ip_rt_frag_needed(), checking and conditionally updating the peer, are done by the per-protocol handlers of the ICMP event. TCP, UDP, et al. have a handler which will receive this event and transmit it back into the associated route via dst_ops->update_pmtu(). This simplification is important, because it eliminates the one place where we do not have a proper route context in which to make an inetpeer lookup. Signed-off-by: David S.

* net: more accurate skb truesizeEric Dumazet2011-10-131-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | skb truesize currently accounts for sk_buff struct and part of skb head. kmalloc() roundings are also ignored. Considering that skb_shared_info is larger than sk_buff, its time to take it into account for better memory accounting. This patch introduces SKB_TRUESIZE(X) macro to centralize various assumptions into a single place. At skb alloc phase, we put skb_shared_info struct at the exact end of skb head, to allow a better use of memory (lowering number of reallocations), since kmalloc() gives us power-of-two memory blocks. Unless SLUB/SLUB debug is active, both skb->head and skb_shared_info are aligned to cache lines, as before. Note: This patch might trigger performance regressions because of misconfigured protocol stacks, hitting per socket or global memory limits that were previously not reached. But its a necessary step for a more accurate memory accounting.

It makes it possible to send ICMP_ECHO messages and receive the corresponding ICMP_ECHOREPLY messages without any special privileges. In other words, the patch makes it possible to implement setuid-less and CAP_NET_RAW-less /bin/ping. In order not to increase the kernel's attack surface, the new functionality is disabled by default, but is enabled at bootup by supporting Linux distributions, optionally with restriction to a group or a group range (see below). Similar functionality is implemented in Mac OS X: http://www.manpagez.com/man/4/icmp/ A new ping socket is created with socket(PF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, PROT_ICMP) Message identifiers (octets 4-5 of ICMP header) are interpreted as local ports. Addresses are stored in struct sockaddr_in. No port numbers are reserved for privileged processes, port 0 is reserved for API ("let the kernel pick a free number"). There is no notion of remote ports, remote port numbers provided by the user (e.g. in connect()) are ignored. Data sent and received include ICMP headers. This is deliberate to: 1) Avoid the need to transport headers values like sequence numbers by other means. 2) Make it easier to port existing programs using raw sockets. ICMP headers given to send() are checked and sanitized. The type must be ICMP_ECHO and the code must be zero (future extensions might relax this, see below). The id is set to the number (local port) of the socket, the checksum is always recomputed. ICMP reply packets received from the network are demultiplexed according to their id's, and are returned by recv() without any modifications. IP header information and ICMP errors of those packets may be obtained via ancillary data (IP_RECVTTL, IP_RETOPTS, and IP_RECVERR). ICMP source quenches and redirects are reported as fake errors via the error queue (IP_RECVERR); the next hop address for redirects is saved to ee_info (in network order). socket(2) is restricted to the group range specified in "/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ping_group_range". It is "1 0" by default, meaning that nobody (not even root) may create ping sockets. Setting it to "100 100" would grant permissions to the single group (to either make /sbin/ping g+s and owned by this group or to grant permissions to the "netadmins" group), "0 4294967295" would enable it for the world, "100 4294967295" would enable it for the users, but not daemons. The existing code might be (in the unlikely case anyone needs it) extended rather easily to handle other similar pairs of ICMP messages (Timestamp/Reply, Information Request/Reply, Address Mask Request/Reply etc.). Userspace ping util & patch for it: http://openwall.info/wiki/people/segoon/ping For Openwall GNU/*/Linux it was the last step on the road to the setuid-less distro. A revision of this patch (for RHEL5/OpenVZ kernels) is in use in Owl-current, such as in the 2011/03/12 LiveCD ISOs: http://mirrors.kernel.org/openwall/Owl/current/iso/ Initially this functionality was written by Pavel Kankovsky for Linux 2.4.32, but unfortunately it was never made public. All ping options (-b, -p, -Q, -R, -s, -t, -T, -M, -I), are tested with the patch. PATCH v3: - switched to flowi4. - minor changes to be consistent with raw sockets code. PATCH v2: - changed ping_debug() to pr_debug(). - removed CONFIG_IP_PING. - removed ping_seq_fops.owner field (unused for procfs). - switched to proc_net_fops_create(). - switched to %pK in seq_printf(). PATCH v1: - fixed checksumming bug. - CAP_NET_RAW may not create icmp sockets anymore. RFC v2: - minor cleanups. - introduced sysctl'able group range to restrict socket(2).

Instead of handling atomic refcounts, just copy ip_options when necessary, to avoid cache line dirtying. We cant insert an rcu_head in struct ip_options since its included in skb->cb[], so this patch is large because I had to introduce a new ip_options_rcu structure.

* net: Make flowi ports AF dependent.David S. Miller2011-03-121-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | Create two sets of port member accessors, one set prefixed by fl4_* and the other prefixed by fl6_* This will let us to create AF optimal flow instances. It will work because every context in which we access the ports, we have to be fully aware of which AF the flowi is anyways. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* net: Put flowi_* prefix on AF independent members of struct flowiDavid S. Miller2011-03-121-5/+7
| | | | | | | | | | I intend to turn struct flowi into a union of AF specific flowi structs. There will be a common structure that each variant includes first, much like struct sock_common. This is the first step to move in that direction. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | | | | | | | | | The only necessary parts are the src/dst addresses, the interface indexes, the TOS, and the mark. The rest is unnecessary bloat, which amounts to nearly 50 bytes on 64-bit. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* ipv4: Make icmp route lookup code a bit clearer.David S. Miller2011-03-011-79/+96
| | | | | | | | | | | The route lookup code in icmp_send() is slightly tricky as a result of having to handle all of the requirements of RFC 4301 host relookups. Pull the route resolution into a seperate function, so that the error handling and route reference counting is hopefully easier to see and contained wholly within this new routine.
