2012-03-12net: ipv4: Standardize prefixes for message loggingJoe Perches1-0/+2
Add #define pr_fmt(fmt) as appropriate. Add "IPv4: ", "TCP: ", and "IPsec: " to appropriate files. Standardize on "UDPLite: " for appropriate uses. Some prefixes were previously "UDPLITE: " and "UDP-Lite: ". Add KBUILD_MODNAME ": " to icmp and gre. Remove embedded prefixes as appropriate. Add missing "\n" to pr_info in gre.c.

2012-03-11net: Convert printks to pr_<level>Joe Perches1-3/+3
Use a more current kernel messaging style. Convert a printk block to print_hex_dump. Coalesce formats, align arguments. Use %s, __func__ instead of embedding function names. Some messages that were prefixed with <foo>_close are now prefixed with <foo>_fini. Some ah4 and esp messages are now not prefixed with "ip ". The intent of this patch is to later add something like #define pr_fmt(fmt) "IPv4: " fmt. to standardize the output messages. Text size is trivially reduced.

2012-01-26ipv6: Fix ip_gre lockless xmits.Willem de Bruijn1-0/+4
Tunnel devices set NETIF_F_LLTX to bypass HARD_TX_LOCK. Sit and ipip set this unconditionally in ops->setup, but gre enables it conditionally after parameter passing in ops->newlink. This is not called during tunnel setup as below, however, so GRE tunnels are still taking the lock. modprobe ip_gre ip tunnel add test0 mode gre remote 10.5.1.1 dev lo ip link set test0 up ip addr add 10.6.0.1 dev test0 # cat /sys/class/net/test0/features # $DIR/test_tunnel_xmit 10 10.5.2.1 ip route add 10.5.2.0/24 dev test0 ip tunnel del test0 The newlink callback is only called in rtnl_netlink, and only if the device is new, as it calls register_netdevice internally. Gre tunnels are created at 'ip tunnel add' with ioctl SIOCADDTUNNEL, which calls ipgre_tunnel_locate, which calls register_netdev. rtnl_newlink is called at 'ip link set', but skips ops->newlink and the device is up with locking still enabled. The equivalent ipip tunnel works fine, btw (just substitute 'method gre' for 'method ipip'). On kernels before /sys/class/net/*/features was removed [1], the first commented out line returns 0x6000 with method gre, which indicates that NETIF_F_LLTX (0x1000) is not set. With ipip, it reports 0x7000. This test cannot be used on recent kernels where the sysfs file is removed (and ETHTOOL_GFEATURES does not currently work for tunnel devices, because they lack dev->ethtool_ops). The second commented out line calls a simple transmission test [2] that sends on 24 cores at maximum rate. Results of a single run: ipip: 19,372,306 gre before patch: 4,839,753 gre after patch: 19,133,873 This patch replicates the condition check in ipgre_newlink to ipgre_tunnel_locate. It works for me, both with oseq on and off. This is the first time I looked at rtnetlink and iproute2 code, though, so someone more knowledgeable should probably check the patch. Thanks. The tail of both functions is now identical, by the way. To avoid code duplication, I'll be happy to rework this and merge the two.

2011-03-10net: don't allow CAP_NET_ADMIN to load non-netdev kernel modulesVasiliy Kulikov1-1/+1
Since a8f80e8ff94ecba629542d9b4b5f5a8ee3eb565c any process with CAP_NET_ADMIN may load any module from /lib/modules/. This doesn't mean that CAP_NET_ADMIN is a superset of CAP_SYS_MODULE as modules are limited to /lib/modules/**. However, CAP_NET_ADMIN capability shouldn't allow anybody load any module not related to networking. This patch restricts an ability of autoloading modules to netdev modules with explicit aliases. This fixes CVE-2011-1019. Arnd Bergmann suggested to leave untouched the old pre-v2.6.32 behavior of loading netdev modules by name (without any prefix) for processes with CAP_SYS_MODULE to maintain the compatibility with network scripts that use autoloading netdev modules by aliases like "eth0", "wlan0". Currently there are only three users of the feature in the upstream kernel: ipip, ip_gre and sit. root@albatros:~# capsh --drop=$(seq -s, 0 11),$(seq -s, 13 34) -- root@albatros:~# grep Cap /proc/$$/status CapInh: 0000000000000000 CapPrm: fffffff800001000 CapEff: fffffff800001000 CapBnd: fffffff800001000 root@albatros:~# modprobe xfs FATAL: Error inserting xfs (/lib/modules/2.6.38-rc6-00001-g2bf4ca3/kernel/fs/xfs/xfs.ko): Operation not permitted root@albatros:~# lsmod | grep xfs root@albatros:~# ifconfig xfs xfs: error fetching interface information: Device not found root@albatros:~# lsmod | grep xfs root@albatros:~# lsmod | grep sit root@albatros:~# ifconfig sit sit: error fetching interface information: Device not found root@albatros:~# lsmod | grep sit root@albatros:~# ifconfig sit0 sit0 Link encap:IPv6-in-IPv4 NOARP MTU:1480 Metric:1 root@albatros:~# lsmod | grep sit sit 10457 0 tunnel4 2957 1 sit For CAP_SYS_MODULE module loading is still relaxed: root@albatros:~# grep Cap /proc/$$/status CapInh: 0000000000000000 CapPrm: ffffffffffffffff CapEff: ffffffffffffffff CapBnd: ffffffffffffffff root@albatros:~# ifconfig xfs xfs: error fetching interface information: Device not found root@albatros:~# lsmod | grep xfs xfs 745319 0 Reference: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/2/24/203 Signed-off-by: Vasiliy Kulikov <segoon@openwall.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Tokarev <mjt@tls.msk.ru> Acked-by: David S.

2010-12-12ipv4: Don't pre-seed hoplimit metric.David S. Miller1-1/+1
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.

Use helper functions to hide all direct accesses, especially writes, to dst_entry metrics values. This will allow us to: 1) More easily change how the metrics are stored. 2) Implement COW for metrics. In particular this will help us put metrics into the inetpeer cache if that is what we end up doing. We can make the _metrics member a pointer instead of an array, initially have it point at the read-only metrics in the FIB, and then on the first set grab an inetpeer entry and point the _metrics member there.

2010-10-27tunnels: Fix tunnels change rcu protectionPavel Emelyanov1-0/+1
After making rcu protection for tunnels (ipip, gre, sit and ip6) a bug was introduced into the SIOCCHGTUNNEL code. The tunnel is first unlinked, then addresses change, then it is linked back probably into another bucket. But while changing the parms, the hash table is unlocked to readers and they can lookup the improper tunnel. Respective commits are b7285b79 (ipip: get rid of ipip_lock), 1507850b (gre: get rid of ipgre_lock), 3a43be3c (sit: get rid of ipip6_lock) and 94767632 (ip6tnl: get rid of ip6_tnl_lock).

Without the patch, all IPV6 packets in tunnel look the same to QoS. This assumes that IPV6 transport class is exactly the same as IPv4 TOS. Not sure if that is always the case? Maybe need to mask off some bits. The mask and shift to get tclass is copied from ipv6/datagram.c Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-06-10net-next: remove useless union keywordChangli Gao1-7/+7
remove useless union keyword in rtable, rt6_info and dn_route. Since there is only one member in a union, the union keyword isn't useful. Signed-off-by: Changli Gao <xiaosuo@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-05-17net: Remove unnecessary returns from void function()sJoe Perches1-1/+0
This patch removes from net/ (but not any netfilter files) all the unnecessary return; statements that precede the last closing brace of void functions. It does not remove the returns that are immediately preceded by a label as gcc doesn't like that. Done via: $ grep -rP --include=*.[ch] -l "return;\n}" net/ | \ xargs perl -i -e 'local $/ ; while (<>) { s/\n[ \t\n]+return;\n}/\n}/g; print; }' Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-05-17net: Introduce skb_tunnel_rx() helperEric Dumazet1-8/+1
skb rxhash should be cleared when a skb is handled by a tunnel before being delivered again, so that correct packet steering can take place. There are other cleanups and accounting that we can factorize in a new helper, skb_tunnel_rx() Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo1-0/+1
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.
