| * [BRIDGE]: Disable SG/GSO if TX checksum is offHerbert Xu2006-08-171-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the bridge recomputes features, it does not maintain the constraint that SG/GSO must be off if TX checksum is off. This patch adds that constraint. On a completely unrelated note, I've also added TSO6 and TSO_ECN feature bits if GSO is enabled on the underlying device through the new NETIF_F_GSO_SOFTWARE macro.

| * [INET]: Use pskb_trim_unique when trimming paged unique skbsHerbert Xu2006-08-132-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The IPv4/IPv6 datagram output path was using skb_trim to trim paged packets because they know that the packet has not been cloned yet (since the packet hasn't been given to anything else in the system). This broke because skb_trim no longer allows paged packets to be trimmed. Paged packets must be given to one of the pskb_trim functions instead. This patch adds a new pskb_trim_unique function to cover the IPv4/IPv6 datagram output path scenario and replaces the corresponding skb_trim calls with it.

| * [NETFILTER]: ulog: fix panic on SMP kernelsMark Huang2006-08-133-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix kernel panic on various SMP machines. The culprit is a null ub->skb in ulog_send(). If ulog_timer() has already been scheduled on one CPU and is spinning on the lock, and ipt_ulog_packet() flushes the queue on another CPU by calling ulog_send() right before it exits, there will be no skbuff when ulog_timer() acquires the lock and calls ulog_send(). Cancelling the timer in ulog_send() doesn't help because it has already been scheduled and is running on the first CPU. Similar problem exists in ebt_ulog.c and nfnetlink_log.c.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix from Aji_Srinivas@emc.com, STP packets are incorrectly received on all LLC datagram sockets, whichever interface they are bound to. The llc_sap datagram receive logic sends packets with a unicast destination MAC to one socket bound to that SAP and MAC, and multicast packets to all sockets bound to that SAP. STP packets are multicast, and we do need to know on which interface they were received. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
| * [IPSEC]: Validate properly in xfrm_dst_check()David S. Miller2006-08-131-3/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If dst->obsolete is -1, this is a signal from the bundle creator that we want the XFRM dst and the dsts that it references to be validated on every use. I misunderstood this intention when I changed xfrm_dst_check() to always return NULL. Now, when we purge a dst entry, by running dst_free() on it. This will set the dst->obsolete to a positive integer, and we want to return NULL in that case so that the socket does a relookup for the route. Thus, if dst->obsolete<0, let stale_bundle() validate the state, else always return NULL. In general, we need to do things more intelligently here because we flush too much state during rule changes. Herbert Xu has some ideas wherein the key manager gives us some help in this area. We can also use smarter state management algorithms inside of the kernel as well. Signed-off-by: David S.

CPU1 CPU2 dst_run_gc() entered dst_run_gc() entered spin_lock(&dst_lock) ..... del_timer(&dst_gc_timer) fail to get lock .... mod_timer() <--- puts timer back to the list add_timer(&dst_gc_timer) <--- BUG because timer is in list already. Found during OpenVZ internal testing. At first we thought that it is OpenVZ specific as we added dst_run_gc(0) call in dst_dev_event(), but as Alexey pointed to me it is possible to trigger this condition in mainstream kernel. F.e. timer has fired on CPU2, but the handler was preeempted by an irq before dst_lock is tried. Meanwhile, someone on CPU1 adds an entry to gc list and starts the timer. If CPU2 was preempted long enough, this timer can expire simultaneously with resuming timer handler on CPU1, arriving exactly to the situation described.

It was found that for 4GB i686 system (having 1048576 total pages and 225280 normal zone pages) kernel allocates the following route hash: syslog: IP route cache hash table entries: 262144 (order: 8, 1048576 bytes) => ip_rt_max_size = 4194304 entries, i.e. max rt size is 4194304 * 256b = 1Gb of RAM > normal_zone Attached the patch which removes HASH_HIGHMEM flag from alloc_large_system_hash() call.

If the given window size is in the range of 8 .. 127, lapb_setparms() fails and returns an error value of LAPB_INVALUE, even if bit LAPB_EXTENDED in parms->mode is set. If bit LAPB_EXTENDED in parms->mode is set and the window size is in the range of 8 .. 127, the first check "(parms->mode & LAPB_EXTENDED)" results true and the second check "(parms->window < 1 || parms->window > 127)" results false. Both checks in conjunction result to false, thus the third check "(parms->window < 1 || parms->window > 7)" is done by fault. This third check results true, so that we leave lapb_setparms() by 'goto out_put'. Seems that this bug doesn't cause any problems, because lapb_setparms() isn't used to change the default values of LAPB.

These were discovered when trying to use it to build an out-of-kernel version of STP. First it didn't pass the source address of the received packet in recvfrom(). It needs to copy the source address of received LLC packets into the socket control block. At the same time fix a security issue because there was uninitialized data leakage. Every recvfrom call was just copying out old data. Second, LLC should not merge multiple packets in one receive call on datagram sockets. LLC should preserve packet boundaries on SOCK_DGRAM. This fix goes against the old historical comments about UNIX98 semantics but without this fix SOCK_DGRAM is broken and useless. So either ANK's interpretation was incorect or UNIX98 standard was wrong.
