2011-05-27inetpeer: fix race in unused_list manipulationsEric Dumazet
Several crashes in cleanup_once() were reported in recent kernels. Commit d6cc1d642de9 (inetpeer: various changes) added a race in unlink_from_unused(). One way to avoid taking unused_peers.lock before doing the list_empty() test is to catch 0->1 refcnt transitions, using full barrier atomic operations variants (atomic_cmpxchg() and atomic_inc_return()) instead of previous atomic_inc() and atomic_add_unless() variants. We then call unlink_from_unused() only for the owner of the 0->1 transition. Add a new atomic_add_unless_return() static helper With help from Arun Sharma.

2011-05-24igmp: call ip_mc_clear_src() only when we have no users of ip_mc_listVeaceslav Falico
In igmp_group_dropped() we call ip_mc_clear_src(), which resets the number of source filters per mulitcast. However, igmp_group_dropped() is also called on NETDEV_DOWN, NETDEV_PRE_TYPE_CHANGE and NETDEV_UNREGISTER, which means that the group might get added back on NETDEV_UP, NETDEV_REGISTER and NETDEV_POST_TYPE_CHANGE respectively, leaving us with broken source filters. To fix that, we must clear the source filters only when there are no users in the ip_mc_list, i.e. in ip_mc_dec_group() and on device destroy.

2011-05-24net: convert %p usage to %pKDan Rosenberg
The %pK format specifier is designed to hide exposed kernel pointers, specifically via /proc interfaces. Exposing these pointers provides an easy target for kernel write vulnerabilities, since they reveal the locations of writable structures containing easily triggerable function pointers. The behavior of %pK depends on the kptr_restrict sysctl. If kptr_restrict is set to 0, no deviation from the standard %p behavior occurs. If kptr_restrict is set to 1, the default, if the current user (intended to be a reader via seq_printf(), etc.) does not have CAP_SYSLOG (currently in the LSM tree), kernel pointers using %pK are printed as 0's. If kptr_restrict is set to 2, kernel pointers using %pK are printed as 0's regardless of privileges. Replacing with 0's was chosen over the default "(null)", which cannot be parsed by userland %p, which expects "(nil)". The supporting code for kptr_restrict and %pK are currently in the -mm tree. This patch converts users of %p in net/ to %pK. Cases of printing pointers to the syslog are not covered, since this would eliminate useful information for postmortem debugging and the reading of the syslog is already optionally protected by the dmesg_restrict sysctl.

2011-05-13ipv4: Kill spurious write to iph->daddr in ip_forward_options().David S. Miller
This code block executes when opt->srr_is_hit is set. It will be set only by ip_options_rcv_srr(). ip_options_rcv_srr() walks until it hits a matching nexthop in the SRR option addresses, and when it matches one 1) looks up the route for that nexthop and 2) on route lookup success it writes that nexthop value into iph->daddr. ip_forward_options() runs later, and again walks the SRR option addresses looking for the option matching the destination of the route stored in skb_rtable(). This route will be the same exact one looked up for the nexthop by ip_options_rcv_srr(). Therefore "rt->rt_dst == iph->daddr" must be true. All it really needs to do is record the route's source address in the matching SRR option adddress. It need not write iph->daddr again, since that has already been done by ip_options_rcv_srr() as detailed above. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-05-13net: ipv4: add IPPROTO_ICMP socket kindVasiliy Kulikov
This patch adds IPPROTO_ICMP socket kind. 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).

2011-05-10xfrm: Assign the inner mode output function to the dst entrySteffen Klassert
As it is, we assign the outer modes output function to the dst entry when we create the xfrm bundle. This leads to two problems on interfamily scenarios. We might insert ipv4 packets into ip6_fragment when called from xfrm6_output. The system crashes if we try to fragment an ipv4 packet with ip6_fragment. This issue was introduced with git commit ad0081e4 (ipv6: Fragment locally generated tunnel-mode IPSec6 packets as needed). The second issue is, that we might insert ipv4 packets in netfilter6 and vice versa on interfamily scenarios. With this patch we assign the inner mode output function to the dst entry when we create the xfrm bundle. So xfrm4_output/xfrm6_output from the inner mode is used and the right fragmentation and netfilter functions are called. We switch then to outer mode with the output_finish functions.

2011-05-08inet: Pass flowi to ->queue_xmit().David S. Miller
This allows us to acquire the exact route keying information from the protocol, however that might be managed. It handles all of the possibilities, from the simplest case of storing the key in inet->cork.fl to the more complex setup SCTP has where individual transports determine the flow.

2011-05-08ipv4: Use inet_csk_route_child_sock() in DCCP and TCP.David S. Miller
Operation order is now transposed, we first create the child socket then we try to hook up the route. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-05-08ipv4: Create inet_csk_route_child_sock().David S. Miller
This is just like inet_csk_route_req() except that it operates after we've created the new child socket. In this way we can use the new socket's cork flow for proper route key storage. This will be used by DCCP and TCP child socket creation handling. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-05-08ipv4: Use cork flow in ip_queue_xmit()David S. Miller
All invokers of ip_queue_xmit() must make certain that the socket is locked. All of SCTP, TCP, DCCP, and L2TP now make sure this is the case. Therefore we can use the cork flow during output route lookup in ip_queue_xmit() when the socket route check fails. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-05-08ipv4: Use cork flow in inet_sk_{reselect_saddr,rebuild_header}()David S. Miller
These two functions must be invoked only when the socket is locked (because socket identity modifications are made non-atomically). Therefore we can use the cork flow for output route lookups. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
