2014-07-29ipv6: fail early when creating netdev named all or defaultWANG Cong
We create a proc dir for each network device, this will cause conflicts when the devices have name "all" or "default". Rather than emitting an ugly kernel warning, we could just fail earlier by checking the device name. Reported-by: Stephane Chazelas <stephane.chazelas@gmail.com> Cc: "David S.

2014-07-11ipv6: addrconf: implement address generation modesJiri Pirko
This patch introduces a possibility for userspace to set various (so far two) modes of generating addresses. This is useful for example for NetworkManager because it can set the mode to NONE and take care of link local addresses itself. That allow it to have the interface up, monitoring carrier but still don't have any addresses on it. One more use-case by Dan Williams: <quote> WWAN devices often have their LL address provided by the firmware of the device, which sometimes refuses to respond to incorrect LL addresses when doing DHCPv6 or IPv6 ND. The kernel cannot generate the correct LL address for two reasons: 1) WWAN pseudo-ethernet interfaces often construct a fake MAC address, or read a meaningless MAC address from the firmware. Thus the EUI64 and the IPv6LL address the kernel assigns will be wrong. The real LL address is often retrieved from the firmware with AT or proprietary commands. 2) WWAN PPP interfaces receive their LL address from IPV6CP, not from kernel assignments. Only after IPV6CP has completed do we know the LL address of the PPP interface and its peer. But the kernel has already assigned an incorrect LL address to the interface. So being able to suppress the kernel LL address generation and assign the one retrieved from the firmware is less complicated and more robust. </quote> Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@resnulli.us> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-07-01ipv6: Allow accepting RA from local IP addresses.Ben Greear
This can be used in virtual networking applications, and may have other uses as well. The option is disabled by default. A specific use case is setting up virtual routers, bridges, and hosts on a single OS without the use of network namespaces or virtual machines. With proper use of ip rules, routing tables, veth interface pairs and/or other virtual interfaces, and applications that can bind to interfaces and/or IP addresses, it is possibly to create one or more virtual routers with multiple hosts attached. The host interfaces can act as IPv6 systems, with radvd running on the ports in the virtual routers. With the option provided in this patch enabled, those hosts can now properly obtain IPv6 addresses from the radvd. Signed-off-by: Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-05-07net: clean up snmp stats codeWANG Cong
commit 8f0ea0fe3a036a47767f9c80e (snmp: reduce percpu needs by 50%) reduced snmp array size to 1, so technically it doesn't have to be an array any more. What's more, after the following commit: commit 933393f58fef9963eac61db8093689544e29a600 Date: Thu Dec 22 11:58:51 2011 -0600 percpu: Remove irqsafe_cpu_xxx variants We simply say that regular this_cpu use must be safe regardless of preemption and interrupt state. That has no material change for x86 and s390 implementations of this_cpu operations. However, arches that do not provide their own implementation for this_cpu operations will now get code generated that disables interrupts instead of preemption. probably no arch wants to have SNMP_ARRAY_SZ == 2. At least after almost 3 years, no one complains. So, just convert the array to a single pointer and remove snmp_mib_init() and snmp_mib_free() as well.

Userspace applications can use IFA_F_MANAGETEMPADDR with RTM_NEWADDR already to indicate that the kernel should take care of temporary address management. This patch adds related functionality to RTM_DELADDR. By setting IFA_F_MANAGETEMPADDR a userspace application can indicate that the kernel should delete all related temporary addresses as well.

2014-03-28ipv6: move DAD and addrconf_verify processing to workqueueHannes Frederic Sowa
addrconf_join_solict and addrconf_join_anycast may cause actions which need rtnl locked, especially on first address creation. A new DAD state is introduced which defers processing of the initial DAD processing into a workqueue. To get rtnl lock we need to push the code paths which depend on those calls up to workqueues, specifically addrconf_verify and the DAD processing. (v2) addrconf_dad_failure needs to be queued up to the workqueue, too. This patch introduces a new DAD state and stop the DAD processing in the workqueue (this is because of the possible ipv6_del_addr processing which removes the solicited multicast address from the device). addrconf_verify_lock is removed, too. After the transition it is not needed any more. As we are not processing in bottom half anymore we need to be a bit more careful about disabling bottom half out when we lock spin_locks which are also used in bh.

tmp_prefered_lft is an offset to ifp->tstamp, not now. Therefore age needs to be added to the condition. Age calculation in ipv6_create_tempaddr is different from the one in addrconf_verify and doesn't consider ADDRCONF_TIMER_FUZZ_MINUS. This can cause age in ipv6_create_tempaddr to be less than the one in addrconf_verify and therefore unnecessary temporary address to be generated. Use age calculation as in addrconf_modify to avoid this. Signed-off-by: Heiner Kallweit <heiner.kallweit@web.de> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2014-02-17gre: add link local route when local addr is anyNicolas Dichtel
This bug was reported by Steinar H. Gunderson and was introduced by commit f7cb8886335d ("sit/gre6: don't try to add the same route two times"). root@morgental:~# ip tunnel add foo mode gre remote 1.2.3.4 ttl 64 root@morgental:~# ip link set foo up mtu 1468 root@morgental:~# ip -6 route show dev foo fe80::/64 proto kernel metric 256 but after the above commit, no such route shows up. There is no link local route because dev->dev_addr is 0 (because local ipv4 address is 0), hence no link local address is configured. In this scenario, the link local address is added manually: 'ip -6 addr add fe80::1 dev foo' and because prefix is /128, no link local route is added by the kernel. Even if the right things to do is to add the link local address with a /64 prefix, we need to restore the previous behavior to avoid breaking userpace. Reported-by: Steinar H.

ipv6_link_dev_addr sorts newly added addresses by scope in ifp->addr_list. Smaller scope addresses are added to the tail of the list. Use this fact to iterate in reverse over addr_list and break out as soon as a higher scoped one showes up, so we can spare some cycles on machines with lot's of addresses. The ordering of the addresses is not relevant and we are more likely to get the eui64 generated address with this change anyway.

2014-01-16ipv6 addrconf: don't cleanup prefix route for IFA_F_NOPREFIXROUTEThomas Haller
Refactor the deletion/update of prefix routes when removing an address. Now also consider IFA_F_NOPREFIXROUTE and if there is an address present with this flag, to not cleanup the route. Instead, assume that userspace is taking care of this route. Also perform the same cleanup, when userspace changes an existing address to add NOPREFIXROUTE (to an address that didn't have this flag). This is done because when the address was added, a prefix route was created for it. Since the user now wants to handle this route by himself, we cleanup this route. This cleanup of the route is not totally robust. There is no guarantee, that the route we are about to delete was really the one added by the kernel. This behavior does not change by the patch, and in practice it should work just fine. Signed-off-by: Thomas Haller <thaller@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: "Mostly these are fixes for fallout due to merge window changes, as well as cures for problems that have been with us for a much longer period of time" 1) Johannes Berg noticed two major deficiencies in our genetlink registration. Some genetlink protocols we passing in constant counts for their ops array rather than something like ARRAY_SIZE(ops) or similar. Also, some genetlink protocols were using fixed IDs for their multicast groups. We have to retain these fixed IDs to keep existing userland tools working, but reserve them so that other multicast groups used by other protocols can not possibly conflict. In dealing with these two problems, we actually now use less state management for genetlink operations and multicast groups. 2) When configuring interface hardware timestamping, fix several drivers that simply do not validate that the hwtstamp_config value is one the driver actually supports. From Ben Hutchings. 3) Invalid memory references in mwifiex driver, from Amitkumar Karwar. 4) In dev_forward_skb(), set the skb->protocol in the right order relative to skb_scrub_packet(). From Alexei Starovoitov. 5) Bridge erroneously fails to use the proper wrapper functions to make calls to netdev_ops->ndo_vlan_rx_{add,kill}_vid. Fix from Toshiaki Makita. 6) When detaching a bridge port, make sure to flush all VLAN IDs to prevent them from leaking, also from Toshiaki Makita. 7) Put in a compromise for TCP Small Queues so that deep queued devices that delay TX reclaim non-trivially don't have such a performance decrease. One particularly problematic area is 802.11 AMPDU in wireless. From Eric Dumazet. 8) Fix crashes in tcp_fastopen_cache_get(), we can see NULL socket dsts here. Fix from Eric Dumzaet, reported by Dave Jones. 9) Fix use after free in ipv6 SIT driver, from Willem de Bruijn. 10) When computing mergeable buffer sizes, virtio-net fails to take the virtio-net header into account.

2013-11-14sit: link local routes are missingNicolas Dichtel
When a link local address was added to a sit interface, the corresponding route was not configured. This breaks routing protocols that use the link local address, like OSPFv3. To ease the code reading, I remove sit_route_add(), which only adds v4 mapped routes, and add this kind of route directly in sit_add_v4_addrs(). Thus link local and v4 mapped routes are configured in the same place.

When the local IPv4 endpoint is wilcard (0.0.0.0), the prefix length is correctly set, ie 64 if the address is a link local one or 96 if the address is a v4 mapped one. But when the local endpoint is specified, the prefix length is set to 128 for both kind of address. This patch fix this wrong prefix length.

2013-11-06net: Explicitly initialize u64_stats_sync structures for lockdepJohn Stultz
In order to enable lockdep on seqcount/seqlock structures, we must explicitly initialize any locks. The u64_stats_sync structure, uses a seqcount, and thus we need to introduce a u64_stats_init() function and use it to initialize the structure. This unfortunately adds a lot of fairly trivial initialization code to a number of drivers. But the benefit of ensuring correctness makes this worth while. Because these changes are required for lockdep to be enabled, and the changes are quite trivial, I've not yet split this patch out into 30-some separate patches, as I figured it would be better to get the various maintainers thoughts on how to best merge this change along with the seqcount lockdep enablement. Feedback would be appreciated!

2013-09-30ipv6: Fix preferred_lft not updating in some casesPaul Marks
Consider the scenario where an IPv6 router is advertising a fixed preferred_lft of 1800 seconds, while the valid_lft begins at 3600 seconds and counts down in realtime. A client should reset its preferred_lft to 1800 every time the RA is received, but a bug is causing Linux to ignore the update. The core problem is here: if (prefered_lft != ifp->prefered_lft) { Note that ifp->prefered_lft is an offset, so it doesn't decrease over time. Thus, the comparison is always (1800 != 1800), which fails to trigger an update. The most direct solution would be to compute a "stored_prefered_lft", and use that value in the comparison. But I think that trying to filter out unnecessary updates here is a premature optimization. In order for the filter to apply, both of these would need to hold: - The advertised valid_lft and preferred_lft are both declining in real time. - No clock skew exists between the router & client. So in this patch, I've set "update_lft = 1" unconditionally, which allows the surrounding code to be greatly simplified.

When a router is doing DNAT for 6to4/6rd packets the latest anti-spoofing commit 218774dc ("ipv6: add anti-spoofing checks for 6to4 and 6rd") will drop them because the IPv6 address embedded does not match the IPv4 destination. This patch will allow them to pass by testing if we have an address that matches on 6to4/6rd interface. I have been hit by this problem using Fedora and IPV6TO4_IPV4ADDR. Also, log the dropped packets (with rate limit). Signed-off-by: Catalin(ux) M. BOIE <catab@embedromix.ro> Acked-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@stressinduktion.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
