* net: sctp: only warn in proc_sctp_do_alpha_beta if writeDaniel Borkmann2014-07-021-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | Only warn if the value is written to alpha or beta. We don't care emitting a one-time warning when only reading it.

* net: sctp: check proc_dointvec result in proc_sctp_do_authDaniel Borkmann2014-06-191-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When writing to the sysctl field net.sctp.auth_enable, it can well be that the user buffer we handed over to proc_dointvec() via proc_sctp_do_auth() handler contains something other than integers. In that case, we would set an uninitialized 4-byte value from the stack to net->sctp.auth_enable that can be leaked back when reading the sysctl variable, and it can unintentionally turn auth_enable on/off based on the stack content since auth_enable is interpreted as a boolean. Fix it up by making sure proc_dointvec() returned sucessfully.

* net: sctp: propagate sysctl errors from proc_do* properlyDaniel Borkmann2014-06-181-20/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sysctl handler proc_sctp_do_hmac_alg(), proc_sctp_do_rto_min() and proc_sctp_do_rto_max() do not properly reflect some error cases when writing values via sysctl from internal proc functions such as proc_dointvec() and proc_dostring(). In all these cases we pass the test for write != 0 and partially do additional work just to notice that additional sanity checks fail and we return with hard-coded -EINVAL while proc_do* functions might also return different errors. So fix this up by simply testing a successful return of proc_do* right after calling it. This also allows to propagate its return value onwards to the user. While touching this, also fix up some minor style issues.

* net: sctp: fix permissions for rto_alpha and rto_beta knobsDaniel Borkmann2014-06-151-4/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 3fd091e73b81 ("[SCTP]: Remove multiple levels of msecs to jiffies conversions.") has silently changed permissions for rto_alpha and rto_beta knobs from 0644 to 0444. The purpose of this was to discourage users from tweaking rto_alpha and rto_beta knobs in production environments since they are key to correctly compute rtt/srtt. RFC4960 under section 6.3.1. RTO Calculation says regarding rto_alpha and rto_beta under rule C3 and C4: [...] C3) When a new RTT measurement R' is made, set RTTVAR <- (1 - RTO.Beta) * RTTVAR + RTO.Beta * |SRTT - R'| and SRTT <- (1 - RTO.Alpha) * SRTT + RTO.Alpha * R' Note: The value of SRTT used in the update to RTTVAR is its value before updating SRTT itself using the second assignment. After the computation, update RTO <- SRTT + 4 * RTTVAR. C4) When data is in flight and when allowed by rule C5 below, a new RTT measurement MUST be made each round trip. Furthermore, new RTT measurements SHOULD be made no more than once per round trip for a given destination transport address. There are two reasons for this recommendation: First, it appears that measuring more frequently often does not in practice yield any significant benefit [ALLMAN99]; second, if measurements are made more often, then the values of RTO.Alpha and RTO.Beta in rule C3 above should be adjusted so that SRTT and RTTVAR still adjust to changes at roughly the same rate (in terms of how many round trips it takes them to reflect new values) as they would if making only one measurement per round-trip and using RTO.Alpha and RTO.Beta as given in rule C3. However, the exact nature of these adjustments remains a research issue. [...] While it is discouraged to adjust rto_alpha and rto_beta and not further specified how to adjust them, the RFC also doesn't explicitly forbid it, but rather gives a RECOMMENDED default value (rto_alpha=3, rto_beta=2). We have a couple of users relying on the old permissions before they got changed. That said, if someone really has the urge to adjust them, we could allow it with a warning in the log.

After that point, if an admin switches over to auth_enable=1, the machine can crash due to NULL pointer dereference during reception of an INIT chunk. When we enter sctp_process_init() via sctp_sf_do_5_1B_init() in order to respond to an INIT chunk, the INIT verification succeeds and while we walk and process all INIT params via sctp_process_param() we find that net->sctp.auth_enable is set, therefore do not fall through, but invoke sctp_auth_asoc_set_default_hmac() instead, and thus, dereference what we have set to NULL during endpoint initialization phase. The fix is to make auth_enable immutable by caching its value during endpoint initialization, so that its original value is being carried along until destruction. The bug seems to originate from the very first days. Fix in joint work with Daniel Borkmann.

In sctp_sysctl_net_register(), we register the sysctl for each net, in the for(), we use the 'table[i].data' as check condition, so when the 'i' is the index of sctp_hmac_alg, the data is NULL, then break.

* sctp: Make hmac algorithm selection for cookie generation dynamicNeil Horman2012-10-261-0/+59
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently sctp allows for the optional use of md5 of sha1 hmac algorithms to generate cookie values when establishing new connections via two build time config options. Theres no real reason to make this a static selection. We can add a sysctl that allows for the dynamic selection of these algorithms at run time, with the default value determined by the corresponding crypto library availability. This comes in handy when, for example running a system in FIPS mode, where use of md5 is disallowed, but SHA1 is permitted. Note: This new sysctl has no corresponding socket option to select the cookie hmac algorithm. I chose not to implement that intentionally, as RFC 6458 contains no option for this value, and I opted not to pollute the socket option namespace. Change notes: v2) * Updated subject to have the proper sctp prefix as per Dave M. * Replaced deafult selection options with new options that allow developers to explicitly select available hmac algs at build time as per suggestion by Vlad Y.

* sctp: Implement quick failover draft from tsvwgNeil Horman2012-07-221-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I've seen several attempts recently made to do quick failover of sctp transports by reducing various retransmit timers and counters. While its possible to implement a faster failover on multihomed sctp associations, its not particularly robust, in that it can lead to unneeded retransmits, as well as false connection failures due to intermittent latency on a network. Instead, lets implement the new ietf quick failover draft found here: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-nishida-tsvwg-sctp-failover-05 This will let the sctp stack identify transports that have had a small number of errors, and avoid using them quickly until their reliability can be re-established. I've tested this out on two virt guests connected via multiple isolated virt networks and believe its in compliance with the above draft and works well.

* sctp: fix incorrect overflow check on autocloseXi Wang2011-12-191-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 8ffd3208 voids the previous patches f6778aab and 810c0719 for limiting the autoclose value. If userspace passes in -1 on 32-bit platform, the overflow check didn't work and autoclose would be set to 0xffffffff. This patch defines a max_autoclose (in seconds) for limiting the value and exposes it through sysctl, with the following intentions. 1) Avoid overflowing autoclose * HZ. 2) Keep the default autoclose bound consistent across 32- and 64-bit platforms (INT_MAX / HZ in this patch). 3) Keep the autoclose value consistent between setsockopt() and getsockopt() calls.

* sctp: Sysctl configuration for IPv4 Address ScopingBhaskar Dutta2009-09-041-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces a new sysctl option to make IPv4 Address Scoping configurable <draft-stewart-tsvwg-sctp-ipv4-00.txt>. In networking environments where DNAT rules in iptables prerouting chains convert destination IP's to link-local/private IP addresses, SCTP connections fail to establish as the INIT chunk is dropped by the kernel due to address scope match failure. For example to support overlapping IP addresses (same IP address with different vlan id) a Layer-5 application listens on link local IP's, and there is a DNAT rule that maps the destination IP to a link local IP. Such applications never get the SCTP INIT if the address-scoping draft is strictly followed. This sysctl configuration allows SCTP to function in such unconventional networking environments. Sysctl options: 0 - Disable IPv4 address scoping draft altogether 1 - Enable IPv4 address scoping (default, current behavior) 2 - Enable address scoping but allow IPv4 private addresses in init/init-ack 3 - Enable address scoping but allow IPv4 link local address in init/init-ack Signed-off-by: Bhaskar Dutta <bhaskar.dutta@globallogic.com> Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name. Which is pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented. I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register duplicate sysctl entries. So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future enhancments harder. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
