udp: only allow UFO for packets from SOCK_DGRAM sockets

2015-03-18T13:10:52+00:00

[ Upstream commit acf8dd0a9d0b9e4cdb597c2f74802f79c699e802 ]

If an over-MTU UDP datagram is sent through a SOCK_RAW socket to a
UFO-capable device, ip_ufo_append_data() sets skb->ip_summed to
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL unconditionally as all GSO code assumes transport layer
checksum is to be computed on segmentation. However, in this case,
skb->csum_start and skb->csum_offset are never set as raw socket
transmit path bypasses udp_send_skb() where they are usually set. As a
result, driver may access invalid memory when trying to calculate the
checksum and store the result (as observed in virtio_net driver).

Moreover, the very idea of modifying the userspace provided UDP header
is IMHO against raw socket semantics (I wasn't able to find a document
clearly stating this or the opposite, though). And while allowing
CHECKSUM_NONE in the UFO case would be more efficient, it would be a bit
too intrusive change just to handle a corner case like this. Therefore
disallowing UFO for packets from SOCK_DGRAM seems to be the best option.

ipv4: tcp: get rid of ugly unicast_sock

2015-02-02T07:06:19+00:00

In commit be9f4a44e7d41 ("ipv4: tcp: remove per net tcp_sock")
I tried to address contention on a socket lock, but the solution
I chose was horrible :

commit 3a7c384ffd57e ("ipv4: tcp: unicast_sock should not land outside
of TCP stack") addressed a selinux regression.

commit 0980e56e506b ("ipv4: tcp: set unicast_sock uc_ttl to -1")
took care of another regression.

commit b5ec8eeac46 ("ipv4: fix ip_send_skb()") fixed another regression.

commit 811230cd85 ("tcp: ipv4: initialize unicast_sock sk_pacing_rate")
was another shot in the dark.

Really, just use a proper socket per cpu, and remove the skb_orphan()
call, to re-enable flow control.

This solves a serious problem with FQ packet scheduler when used in
hostile environments, as we do not want to allocate a flow structure
for every RST packet sent in response to a spoofed packet.

tcp: ipv4: initialize unicast_sock sk_pacing_rate

2015-01-29T07:24:47+00:00

When I added sk_pacing_rate field, I forgot to initialize its value
in the per cpu unicast_sock used in ip_send_unicast_reply()

This means that for sch_fq users, RST packets, or ACK packets sent
on behalf of TIME_WAIT sockets might be sent to slowly or even dropped
once we reach the per flow limit.

put iov_iter into msghdr

2014-12-09T21:29:03+00:00

Note that the code _using_ ->msg_iter at that point will be very
unhappy with anything other than unshifted iovec-backed iov_iter.
We still need to convert users to proper primitives.

net; ipv[46] - Remove 2 unnecessary NETDEBUG OOM messages

2014-11-06T20:11:10+00:00

These messages aren't useful as there's a generic dump_stack()
on OOM.

Neaten the comment and if test above the OOM by separating the
assign in if into an allocation then if test.

net: make skb_gso_segment error handling more robust

2014-10-20T16:38:13+00:00

skb_gso_segment has three possible return values:
1. a pointer to the first segmented skb
2. an errno value (IS_ERR())
3. NULL.  This can happen when GSO is used for header verification.

However, several callers currently test IS_ERR instead of IS_ERR_OR_NULL
and would oops when NULL is returned.

Note that these call sites should never actually see such a NULL return
value; all callers mask out the GSO bits in the feature argument.

However, there have been issues with some protocol handlers erronously not
respecting the specified feature mask in some cases.

It is preferable to get 'have to turn off hw offloading, else slow' reports
rather than 'kernel crashes'.

netfilter: use IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_BRIDGE_NETFILTER)

In 34666d4 ("netfilter: bridge: move br_netfilter out of the core"),
the bridge netfilter code has been modularized.

Use IS_ENABLED instead of ifdef to cover the module case.

ipv4: rename ip_options_echo to __ip_options_echo()

2014-09-28T20:35:42+00:00

ip_options_echo() assumes struct ip_options is provided in &IPCB(skb)->opt
Lets break this assumption, but provide a helper to not change all call points.

ip_send_unicast_reply() gets a new struct ip_options pointer.
