2008-06-04tcp: Fix inconsistency source (CA_Open only when !tcp_left_out(tp))Ilpo Järvinen
It is possible that this skip path causes TCP to end up into an invalid state where ca_state was left to CA_Open while some segments already came into sacked_out. If next valid ACK doesn't contain new SACK information TCP fails to enter into tcp_fastretrans_alert(). Thus at least high_seq is set incorrectly to a too high seqno because some new data segments could be sent in between (and also, limited transmit is not being correctly invoked there). Reordering in both directions can easily cause this situation to occur. I guess we would want to use tcp_moderate_cwnd(tp) there as well as it may be possible to use this to trigger oversized burst to network by sending an old ACK with huge amount of SACK info, but I'm a bit unsure about its effects (mainly to FlightSize), so to be on the safe side I just currently fixed it minimally to keep TCP's state consistent (obviously, such nasty ACKs have been possible this far). Though it seems that FlightSize is already underestimated by some amount, so probably on the long term we might want to trigger recovery there too, if appropriate, to make FlightSize calculation to resemble reality at the time when the losses where discovered (but such change scares me too much now and requires some more thinking anyway how to do that as it likely involves some code shuffling). This bug was found by Brian Vowell while running my TCP debug patch to find cause of another TCP issue (fackets_out miscount).

2008-05-21tcp: TCP connection times out if ICMP frag needed is delayedSridhar Samudrala
We are seeing an issue with TCP in handling an ICMP frag needed message that is received after net.ipv4.tcp_retries1 retransmits. The default value of retries1 is 3. So if the path mtu changes and ICMP frag needed is lost for the first 3 retransmits or if it gets delayed until 3 retransmits are done, TCP doesn't update MSS correctly and continues to retransmit the orginal message until it timesout after tcp_retries2 retransmits. I am seeing this issue even with the latest 2.6.25.4 kernel. In tcp_retransmit_timer(), when retransmits counter exceeds tcp_retries1 value, the dst cache entry of the socket is reset. At this time, if we receive an ICMP frag needed message, the dst entry gets updated with the new MTU, but the TCP sockets dst_cache entry remains NULL. So the next time when we try to retransmit after the ICMP frag needed is received, tcp_retransmit_skb() gets called. Here the cur_mss value is calculated at the start of the routine with a NULL sk_dst_cache. Instead we should call tcp_current_mss after the rebuild_header that caches the dst entry with the updated mtu. Also the rebuild_header should be called before tcp_fragment so that skb is fragmented if the mss goes down. Signed-off-by: Sridhar Samudrala <sri@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-05-20ipsec: Use the correct ip_local_out functionHerbert Xu
Because the IPsec output function xfrm_output_resume does its own dst_output call it should always call __ip_local_output instead of ip_local_output as the latter may invoke dst_output directly. Otherwise the return values from nf_hook and dst_output may clash as they both use the value 1 but for different purposes. When that clash occurs this can cause a packet to be used after it has been freed which usually leads to a crash. Because the offending value is only returned from dst_output with qdiscs such as HTB, this bug is normally not visible. Thanks to Marco Berizzi for his perseverance in tracking this down.

2008-05-13tcp FRTO: work-around inorder receiversIlpo Järvinen
If receiver consumes segments successfully only in-order, FRTO fallback to conventional recovery produces RTO loop because FRTO's forward transmissions will always get dropped and need to be resent, yet by default they're not marked as lost (which are the only segments we will retransmit in CA_Loss). Price to pay about this is occassionally unnecessarily retransmitting the forward transmission(s). SACK blocks help a bit to avoid this, so it's mainly a concern for NewReno case though SACK is not fully immune either. This change has a side-effect of fixing SACKFRTO problem where it didn't have snd_nxt of the RTO time available anymore when fallback become necessary (this problem would have only occured when RTO would occur for two or more segments and ECE arrives in step 3; no need to figure out how to fix that unless the TODO item of selective behavior is considered in future).

2008-05-13tcp FRTO: Fix fallback to conventional recoveryIlpo Järvinen
It seems that commit 009a2e3e4ec ("[TCP] FRTO: Improve interoperability with other undo_marker users") run into another land-mine which caused fallback to conventional recovery to break: 1. Cumulative ACK arrives after FRTO retransmission 2. tcp_try_to_open sees zero retrans_out, clears retrans_stamp which should be kept like in CA_Loss state it would be 3. undo_marker change allowed tcp_packet_delayed to return true because of the cleared retrans_stamp once FRTO is terminated causing LossUndo to occur, which means all loss markings FRTO made are reverted. This means that the conventional recovery basically recovered one loss per RTT, which is not that efficient. It was quite unobvious that the undo_marker change broken something like this, I had a quite long session to track it down because of the non-intuitiviness of the bug (luckily I had a trivial reproducer at hand and I was also able to learn to use kprobes in the process as well :-)). This together with the NewReno+FRTO fix and FRTO in-order workaround this fixes Damon's problems, this and the first mentioned are enough to fix Bugzilla #10063.

2008-05-08tcp FRTO: SACK variant is errorneously used with NewRenoIlpo Järvinen
Note: there's actually another bug in FRTO's SACK variant, which is the causing failure in NewReno case because of the error that's fixed here. I'll fix the SACK case separately (it's a separate bug really, though related, but in order to fix that I need to audit tp->snd_nxt usage a bit). There were two places where SACK variant of FRTO is getting incorrectly used even if SACK wasn't negotiated by the TCP flow. This leads to incorrect setting of frto_highmark with NewReno if a previous recovery was interrupted by another RTO. An eventual fallback to conventional recovery then incorrectly considers one or couple of segments as forward transmissions though they weren't, which then are not LOST marked during fallback making them "non-retransmittable" until the next RTO. In a bad case, those segments are really lost and are the only one left in the window. Thus TCP needs another RTO to continue. The next FRTO, however, could again repeat the same events making the progress of the TCP flow extremely slow. In order for these events to occur at all, FRTO must occur again in FRTOs step 3 while the key segments must be lost as well, which is not too likely in practice. It seems to most frequently with some small devices such as network printers that *seem* to accept TCP segments only in-order. In cases were key segments weren't lost, things get automatically resolved because those wrongly marked segments don't need to be retransmitted in order to continue. I found a reproducer after digging up relevant reports (few reports in total, none at netdev or lkml I know of), some cases seemed to indicate middlebox issues which seems now to be a false assumption some people had made. Bugzilla #10063 _might_ be related. Damon L. Chesser <damon@damtek.com> had a reproducable case and was kind enough to tcpdump it for me. With the tcpdump log it was quite trivial to figure out.

2008-04-30[IPv4] UFO: prevent generation of chained skb destined to UFO deviceKostya B
Problem: ip_append_data() could wrongly generate a chained skb for devices which support UFO. When sk_write_queue is not empty (e.g. MSG_MORE), __instead__ of appending data into the next nr_frag of the queued skb, a new chained skb is created. I would normally assume UFO device should get data in nr_frags and not in frag_list. Later the udp4_hwcsum_outgoing() resets csum to NONE and skb_gso_segment() has oops. Proposal: 1. Even length is less than mtu, employ ip_ufo_append_data() and append data to the __existed__ skb in the sk_write_queue. 2. ip_ufo_append_data() is fixed due to a wrong manipulation of peek-ing and later enqueue-ing of the same skb. Now, enqueuing is always performed, because on error the further ip_flush_pending_frames() would release the queued skb.

AFAICT, it should ask for 'diff' instead of 'diff - skb_tailroom(e->skb)'. Because the resulting sk_buff has not enough space to support the skb_put(skb, diff) call a few lines later, this results in the call to skb_over_panic(). The patch below asks for allocation of a copy with enough space for mangled packet and the same amount of headroom as old sk_buff. While looking at how the regression appeared (e2b58a67), I noticed the same pattern in ipq_mangle_ipv6() and ipq_mangle_ipv4(). The patch corrects those locations too. Tested with bigger reinjected IPv6 packets (nfqnl_mangle() path), things are ok (2.6.25 and today's net-2.6 git tree).

From: Evgeniy Polyakov <johnpol@2ka.mipt.ru> This fixes a regression added by ec3c0982a2dd1e671bad8e9d26c28dcba0039d87 ("[TCP]: TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT updates - process as established") tcp_v6_do_rcv()->tcp_rcv_established(), the latter goes to step5, where eventually skb can be freed via tcp_data_queue() (drop: label), then if check for tcp_defer_accept_check() returns true and thus tcp_rcv_established() returns -1, which forces tcp_v6_do_rcv() to jump to reset: label, which in turn will pass through discard: label and free the same skb again.

2008-04-25tcp: tcp_probe buffer overflow and incorrect return valueTom Quetchenbach
tcp_probe has a bounds-checking bug that causes many programs (less, python) to crash reading /proc/net/tcp_probe. When it outputs a log line to the reader, it only checks if that line alone will fit in the reader's buffer, rather than that line and all the previous lines it has already written. tcpprobe_read also returns the wrong value if copy_to_user fails--it just passes on the return value of copy_to_user (number of bytes not copied), which makes a failure look like a success. This patch fixes the buffer overflow and sets the return value to -EFAULT if copy_to_user fails. Patch is against latest net-2.6; tested briefly and seems to fix the crashes in less and python.
