2013-01-10ipv6: use addrconf_get_prefix_route for prefix route lookup [v2]Romain Kuntz
Replace ip6_route_lookup() with addrconf_get_prefix_route() when looking up for a prefix route. This ensures that the connected prefix is looked up in the main table, and avoids the selection of other matching routes located in different tables as well as blackhole or prohibited entries. In addition, this fixes an Opps introduced by commit 64c6d08e (ipv6: del unreachable route when an addr is deleted on lo), that would occur when a blackhole or prohibited entry is selected by ip6_route_lookup(). Such entries have a NULL rt6i_table argument, which is accessed by __ip6_del_rt() when trying to lock rt6i_table->tb6_lock. The function addrconf_is_prefix_route() is not used anymore and is removed. [v2] Minor indentation cleanup and log updates.

2013-01-10ipv6: fix the noflags test in addrconf_get_prefix_routeRomain Kuntz
The tests on the flags in addrconf_get_prefix_route() does no make much sense: the 'noflags' parameter contains the set of flags that must not match with the route flags, so the test must be done against 'noflags', and not against 'flags'.

2012-12-03ipv6: Make 'addrconf_rs_timer' send Router Solicitations (and re-arm itself) ↵Shmulik Ladkani
if Router Advertisements are accepted As of 026359b [ipv6: Send ICMPv6 RSes only when RAs are accepted], Router Solicitations are sent whenever kernel accepts Router Advertisements on the interface. However, this logic isn't reflected in 'addrconf_rs_timer'. The timer fails to issue subsequent RS messages (and fails to re-arm itself) if forwarding is enabled and the special hybrid mode is enabled (accept_ra=2). Fix the condition determining whether next RS should be sent, by using 'ipv6_accept_ra()'.

2012-11-19net: Allow userns root to control ipv6Eric W. Biederman
Allow an unpriviled user who has created a user namespace, and then created a network namespace to effectively use the new network namespace, by reducing capable(CAP_NET_ADMIN) and capable(CAP_NET_RAW) calls to be ns_capable(net->user_ns, CAP_NET_ADMIN), or capable(net->user_ns, CAP_NET_RAW) calls. Settings that merely control a single network device are allowed. Either the network device is a logical network device where restrictions make no difference or the network device is hardware NIC that has been explicity moved from the initial network namespace. In general policy and network stack state changes are allowed while resource control is left unchanged. Allow the SIOCSIFADDR ioctl to add ipv6 addresses. Allow the SIOCDIFADDR ioctl to delete ipv6 addresses. Allow the SIOCADDRT ioctl to add ipv6 routes. Allow the SIOCDELRT ioctl to delete ipv6 routes. Allow creation of ipv6 raw sockets.

2012-10-03ipv6: don't add link local route when there is no link local addressNicolas Dichtel
When an address is added on loopback (ip -6 a a 2002::1/128 dev lo), a route to fe80::/64 is added in the main table: unreachable fe80::/64 dev lo proto kernel metric 256 error -101 This route does not match any prefix (no fe80:: address on lo). In fact, addrconf_dev_config() will not add link local address because this function filters interfaces by type. If the link local address is added manually, the route to the link local prefix will be automatically added by addrconf_add_linklocal(). Note also, that this route is not deleted when the address is removed. After looking at the code, it seems that addrconf_add_lroute() is redundant with addrconf_add_linklocal(), because this function will add the link local route when the link local address is configured.

2012-10-01ipv6: del unreachable route when an addr is deleted on loNicolas Dichtel
When an address is added on loopback (ip -6 a a 2002::1/128 dev lo), two routes are added: - one in the local table: local 2002::1 via :: dev lo proto none metric 0 - one the in main table (for the prefix): unreachable 2002::1 dev lo proto kernel metric 256 error -101 When the address is deleted, the route inserted in the main table remains because we use rt6_lookup(), which returns NULL when dst->error is set, which is the case here! Thus, it is better to use ip6_route_lookup() to avoid this kind of filter. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@6wind.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2012-08-23net: remove delay at device dismantleEric Dumazet
I noticed extra one second delay in device dismantle, tracked down to a call to dst_dev_event() while some call_rcu() are still in RCU queues. These call_rcu() were posted by rt_free(struct rtable *rt) calls. We then wait a little (but one second) in netdev_wait_allrefs() before kicking again NETDEV_UNREGISTER. As the call_rcu() are now completed, dst_dev_event() can do the needed device swap on busy dst. To solve this problem, add a new NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL, called after a rcu_barrier(), but outside of RTNL lock. Use NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL with care ! Change dst_dev_event() handler to react to NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL Also remove NETDEV_UNREGISTER_BATCH, as its not used anymore after IP cache removal.

2012-04-13ipv6: fix problem with expired dst cacheGao feng
If the ipv6 dst cache which copy from the dst generated by ICMPV6 RA packet. this dst cache will not check expire because it has no RTF_EXPIRES flag. So this dst cache will always be used until the dst gc run. Change the struct dst_entry,add a union contains new pointer from and expires. When rt6_info.rt6i_flags has no RTF_EXPIRES flag,the dst.expires has no use. we can use this field to point to where the dst cache copy from. The dst.from is only used in IPV6. rt6_check_expired check if rt6_info.dst.from is expired. ip6_rt_copy only set dst.from when the ort has flag RTF_ADDRCONF and RTF_DEFAULT.then hold the ort. ip6_dst_destroy release the ort. Add some functions to operate the RTF_EXPIRES flag and expires(from) together. and change the code to use these new adding functions. Changes from v5: modify ip6_route_add and ndisc_router_discovery to use new adding functions. Only set dst.from when the ort has flag RTF_ADDRCONF and RTF_DEFAULT.then hold the ort.

2012-01-18net: race condition in ipv6 forwarding and disable_ipv6 parametersFrancesco Ruggeri
There is a race condition in addrconf_sysctl_forward() and addrconf_sysctl_disable(). These functions change idev->cnf.forwarding (resp. idev->cnf.disable_ipv6) and then try to grab the rtnl lock before performing any actions. If that fails they restore the original value and restart the syscall. This creates race conditions if ipv6 code tries to access these parameters, or if multiple instances try to do the same operation. As an example of the former, if __ipv6_ifa_notify() finds a 0 in idev->cnf.forwarding when invoked by addrconf_ifdown() it may not free anycast addresses, ultimately resulting in the net_device not being freed. This patch reads the user parameters into a temporary location and only writes the actual parameters when the rtnl lock is acquired. Tested in 2.6.38.8.

This ensures a linear behaviour when filling /proc/net/if_inet6 thus making ifconfig run really fast on IPv6 only addresses. In fact, with this patch and the IPv4 one sent a while ago, ifconfig will run in linear time regardless of address type.

2012-01-04ipv6: Check RA for sllao when configuring optimistic ipv6 address (v2)Neil Horman
Recently Dave noticed that a test we did in ipv6_add_addr to see if we next hop route for the interface we're adding an addres to was wrong (see commit 7ffbcecbeed91e5874e9a1cfc4c0cbb07dac3069). for one, it never triggers, and two, it was completely wrong to begin with. This test was meant to cover this section of RFC 4429: 3.3 Modifications to RFC 2462 Stateless Address Autoconfiguration * (modifies section 5.5) A host MAY choose to configure a new address as an Optimistic Address. A host that does not know the SLLAO of its router SHOULD NOT configure a new address as Optimistic. A router SHOULD NOT configure an Optimistic Address. This patch should bring us into proper compliance with the above clause. Since we only add a SLAAC address after we've received a RA which may or may not contain a source link layer address option, we can pass a pointer to that option to addrconf_prefix_rcv (which may be null if the option is not present), and only set the optimistic flag if the option was found in the RA. Change notes: (v2) modified the new parameter to addrconf_prefix_rcv to be a bool rather than a pointer to make its use more clear as per request from davem.
