net: ipv6: Don't purge default router if accept_ra=2

2013-03-20T20:10:57+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3e8b0ac3e41e3c882222a5522d5df7212438ab51 ]

Setting net.ipv6.conf..accept_ra=2 causes the kernel
to accept RAs even when forwarding is enabled. However, enabling
forwarding purges all default routes on the system, breaking
connectivity until the next RA is received. Fix this by not
purging default routes on interfaces that have accept_ra=2.

ipv6: fix race condition regarding dst->expires and dst->from.

Because we do not have any locks for dst_entry, we cannot change
essential structure in the entry; e.g., we cannot change reference
to other entity.

To fix this issue, split 'from' and 'expires' field in dst_entry
out of union.  Once it is 'from' is assigned in the constructor,
keep the reference until the very last stage of the life time of
the object.

Of course, it is unsafe to change 'from', so make rt6_set_from simple
just for fresh entries.

xfrm: release neighbor upon dst destruction

2013-02-28T13:38:40+00:00

[ Upstream commit 18cf0d0784b4a634472ed24d0d7ca1c721d93e90 ]

Neighbor is cloned in xfrm6_fill_dst but seems to never be released.
Neighbor entry should be released when XFRM6 dst entry is destroyed
in xfrm6_dst_destroy, otherwise references may be kept forever on
the device pointed by the neighbor entry.

I may not have understood all the subtleties of XFRM & dst so I would
be happy to receive comments on this patch.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says:

====================
The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS fixes for 3.8-rc7, they are:

* Fix oops in IPVS state-sync due to releasing a random memory area due
  to unitialized pointer, from Dan Carpenter.

* Fix SCTP flow establishment due to bad checksumming mangling in IPVS,
  from Daniel Borkmann.

* Three fixes for the recently added IPv6 NPT, all from YOSHIFUJI Hideaki,
  with an amendment collapsed into those patches from Ulrich Weber. They
  fiix adjustment calculation, fix prefix mangling and ensure LSB of
  prefixes are zeroes (as required by RFC).

Specifically, it took me a while to validate the 1's complement arithmetics/
checksumming approach in the IPv6 NPT code.

netfilter: ip6t_NPT: Ensure to check lower part of prefixes are zero

2013-02-07T17:40:27+00:00

RFC 6296 points that address bits that are not part of the prefix
has to be zeroed.

Make sure only the bits that are part of the prefix are mangled.

netfilter: ip6t_NPT: Fix adjustment calculation

2013-02-07T17:37:41+00:00

Cast __wsum from/to __sum16 is wrong.  Instead, apply appropriate
conversion function: csum_unfold() or csum_fold().

[ The original patch has been modified to undo the final ~ that
  csum_fold returns. We only need to fold the 32-bit word that
  results from the checksum calculation into a 16-bit to ensure
  that the original subnet is restored appropriately. Spotted by
  Ulrich Weber. ]

ipv6/ip6_gre: fix error case handling in ip6gre_tunnel_xmit()

2013-02-06T21:02:05+00:00

ip6gre_tunnel_xmit() is leaking the skb when we hit this error branch,
and the -1 return value from this function is bogus. Use the error
handling we already have in place in ip6gre_tunnel_xmit() for this error
case to fix this.

This patch updates LINUX_MIB_LISTENDROPS and LINUX_MIB_LISTENOVERFLOWS in
tcp_v6_conn_request() and tcp_v6_err(). tcp_v6_conn_request() in particular can
drop SYNs for various reasons which are not currently tracked.
