* ipv6: make IPV6_RECVPKTINFO work for ipv4 datagramsHannes Frederic Sowa2014-01-191-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently don't report IPV6_RECVPKTINFO in cmsg access ancillary data for IPv4 datagrams on IPv6 sockets. This patch splits the ip6_datagram_recv_ctl into two functions, one which handles both protocol families, AF_INET and AF_INET6, while the ip6_datagram_recv_specific_ctl only handles IPv6 cmsg data. ip6_datagram_recv_*_ctl never reported back any errors, so we can make them return void. Also provide a helper for protocols which don't offer dual personality to further use ip6_datagram_recv_ctl, which is exported to modules. I needed to shuffle the code for ping around a bit to make it easier to implement dual personality for ping ipv6 sockets in future.

* ipv4: introduce ip_dst_mtu_maybe_forward and protect forwarding path against ↵Hannes Frederic Sowa2014-01-131-0/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pmtu spoofing While forwarding we should not use the protocol path mtu to calculate the mtu for a forwarded packet but instead use the interface mtu. We mark forwarded skbs in ip_forward with IPSKB_FORWARDED, which was introduced for multicast forwarding. But as it does not conflict with our usage in unicast code path it is perfect for reuse. I moved the functions ip_sk_accept_pmtu, ip_sk_use_pmtu and ip_skb_dst_mtu along with the new ip_dst_mtu_maybe_forward to net/ip.h to fix circular dependencies because of IPSKB_FORWARDED. Because someone might have written a software which does probe destinations manually and expects the kernel to honour those path mtus I introduced a new per-namespace "ip_forward_use_pmtu" knob so someone can disable this new behaviour. We also still use mtus which are locked on a route for forwarding. The reason for this change is, that path mtus information can be injected into the kernel via e.g. icmp_err protocol handler without verification of local sockets. As such, this could cause the IPv4 forwarding path to wrongfully emit fragmentation needed notifications or start to fragment packets along a path. Tunnel and ipsec output paths clear IPCB again, thus IPSKB_FORWARDED won't be set and further fragmentation logic will use the path mtu to determine the fragmentation size. They also recheck packet size with help of path mtu discovery and report appropriate errors.

* ipv6: make lookups simpler and fasterEric Dumazet2013-10-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TCP listener refactoring, part 4 : To speed up inet lookups, we moved IPv4 addresses from inet to struct sock_common Now is time to do the same for IPv6, because it permits us to have fast lookups for all kind of sockets, including upcoming SYN_RECV. Getting IPv6 addresses in TCP lookups currently requires two extra cache lines, plus a dereference (and memory stall). inet6_sk(sk) does the dereference of inet_sk(__sk)->pinet6 This patch is way bigger than its IPv4 counter part, because for IPv4, we could add aliases (inet_daddr, inet_rcv_saddr), while on IPv6, it's not doable easily. inet6_sk(sk)->daddr becomes sk->sk_v6_daddr inet6_sk(sk)->rcv_saddr becomes sk->sk_v6_rcv_saddr And timewait socket also have tw->tw_v6_daddr & tw->tw_v6_rcv_saddr at the same offset.

* ipv4: processing ancillary IP_TOS or IP_TTLFrancesco Fusco2013-09-281-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* ip: generate unique IP identificator if local fragmentation is allowedAnsis Atteka2013-09-191-4/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If local fragmentation is allowed, then ip_select_ident() and ip_select_ident_more() need to generate unique IDs to ensure correct defragmentation on the peer. For example, if IPsec (tunnel mode) has to encrypt large skbs that have local_df bit set, then all IP fragments that belonged to different ESP datagrams would have used the same identificator. If one of these IP fragments would get lost or reordered, then peer could possibly stitch together wrong IP fragments that did not belong to the same datagram.

* ipv4: fix path MTU discovery with connection trackingPatrick McHardy2012-08-261-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | IPv4 conntrack defragments incoming packet at the PRE_ROUTING hook and (in case of forwarded packets) refragments them at POST_ROUTING independent of the IP_DF flag. Refragmentation uses the dst_mtu() of the local route without caring about the original fragment sizes, thereby breaking PMTUD. This patch fixes this by keeping track of the largest received fragment with IP_DF set and generates an ICMP fragmentation required error during refragmentation if that size exceeds the MTU.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tcp_v4_send_reset() and tcp_v4_send_ack() use a single socket per network namespace. This leads to bad behavior on multiqueue NICS, because many cpus contend for the socket lock and once socket lock is acquired, extra false sharing on various socket fields slow down the operations. To better resist to attacks, we use a percpu socket. Each cpu can run without contention, using appropriate memory (local node) Additional features : 1) We also mirror the queue_mapping of the incoming skb, so that answers use the same queue if possible. 2) Setting SOCK_USE_WRITE_QUEUE socket flag speedup sock_wfree() 3) We now limit the number of in-flight RST/ACK [1] packets per cpu, instead of per namespace, and we honor the sysctl_wmem_default limit dynamically. (Prior to this patch, sysctl_wmem_default value was copied at boot time, so any further change would not affect tcp_sock limit) [1] These packets are only generated when no socket was matched for the incoming packet.

* ipv4: Add sysctl knob to control early socket demuxAlexander Duyck2012-06-221-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change is meant to add a control for disabling early socket demux. The main motivation behind this patch is to provide an option to disable the feature as it adds an additional cost to routing that reduces overall throughput by up to 5%. For example one of my systems went from 12.1Mpps to 11.6 after the early socket demux was added. It looks like the reason for the regression is that we are now having to perform two lookups, first the one for an established socket, and then the one for the routing table. By adding this patch and toggling the value for ip_early_demux to 0 I am able to get back to the 12.1Mpps I was previously seeing.

[PATCH net-next] ipv4: IP_PKTINFO doesnt need dst reference When a socket uses IP_PKTINFO notifications, we currently force a dst reference for each received skb. Reader has to access dst to get needed information (rt_iif & rt_spec_dst) and must release dst reference. We also forced a dst reference if skb was put in socket backlog, even without IP_PKTINFO handling. This happens under stress/load. We can instead store the needed information in skb->cb[], so that only softirq handler really access dst, improving cache hit ratios. This removes two atomic operations per packet, and false sharing as well. On a benchmark using a mono threaded receiver (doing only recvmsg() calls), I can reach 720.000 pps instead of 570.000 pps. IP_PKTINFO is typically used by DNS servers, and any multihomed aware UDP application. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Remove this list completely and perform a garbage collection on-the-fly, at lookup time, using the expired nodes we met during the tree traversal. This removes a lot of code, makes locking more standard, and obsoletes two sysctls (inet_peer_gc_mintime and inet_peer_gc_maxtime). This also removes two pointers in inet_peer structure.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the helper ip_make_skb which is like ip_append_data and ip_push_pending_frames all rolled into one, except that it does not send the skb produced. The sending part is carried out by ip_send_skb, which the transport protocol can call after it has tweaked the skb. It is meant to be called in cases where corking is not used should have a one-to-one correspondence to sendmsg. This patch also adds the helper ip_finish_skb which is meant to be replace ip_push_pending_frames when corking is required. Previously the protocol stack would peek at the socket write queue and add its header to the first packet.

* ipv4: Don't pre-seed hoplimit metric.David S. Miller2010-12-121-10/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Always go through a new ip4_dst_hoplimit() helper, just like ipv6. This allowed several simplifications: 1) The interim dst_metric_hoplimit() can go as it's no longer userd. 2) The sysctl_ip_default_ttl entry no longer needs to use ipv4_doint_and_flush, since the sysctl is not cached in routing cache metrics any longer. 3) ipv4_doint_and_flush no longer needs to be exported and therefore can be marked static. When ipv4_doint_and_flush_strategy was removed some time ago, the external declaration in ip.h was mistakenly left around so kill that off too. We have to move the sysctl_ip_default_ttl declaration into ipv4's route cache definition header net/route.h, because currently net/ip.h (where the declaration lives now) has a back dependency on net/route.h Signed-off-by: David S.

* snmp: 64bit ipstats_mib for all archesEric Dumazet2010-06-301-6/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | /proc/net/snmp and /proc/net/netstat expose SNMP counters. Width of these counters is either 32 or 64 bits, depending on the size of "unsigned long" in kernel. This means user program parsing these files must already be prepared to deal with 64bit values, regardless of user program being 32 or 64 bit. This patch introduces 64bit snmp values for IPSTAT mib, where some counters can wrap pretty fast if they are 32bit wide. # netstat -s|egrep "InOctets|OutOctets" InOctets: 244068329096 OutOctets: 244069348848 Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* ip: ip_ra_control() rcu fixEric Dumazet2010-06-101-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 66018506e15b (ip: Router Alert RCU conversion) introduced RCU lookups to ip_call_ra_chain(). It missed proper deinit phase : When ip_ra_control() deletes an ip_ra_chain, it should make sure ip_call_ra_chain() users can not start to use socket during the rcu grace period. It should also delay the sock_put() after the grace period, or we risk a premature socket freeing and corruptions, as raw sockets are not rcu protected yet. This delay avoids using expensive atomic_inc_not_zero() in ip_call_ra_chain(). Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (Dropped the infiniband part, because Tetsuo modified the related code, I will send a separate patch for it once this is accepted.) This patch introduces /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_reserved_ports which allows users to reserve ports for third-party applications. The reserved ports will not be used by automatic port assignments (e.g. when calling connect() or bind() with port number 0). Explicit port allocation behavior is unchanged.
