====================
pull request [net]: batman-adv 20140721

here you have two fixes that we have been testing for quite some time
(this is why they arrived a bit late in the rc cycle).

Patch 1) ensures that BLA packets get dropped and not forwarded to the
mesh even if they reach batman-adv within QinQ frames. Forwarding them
into the mesh means messing up with the TT database of other nodes which
can generate all kind of unexpected behaviours during route computation.

Patch 2) avoids a couple of race conditions triggered upon fast VLAN
deletion-addition. Such race conditions are pretty dangerous because
they not only create inconsistencies in the TT database of the nodes
in the network, but such scenario is also unrecoverable (unless
nodes are rebooted).

ipv4: fix buffer overflow in ip_options_compile()

2014-07-22T03:16:26+00:00

There is a benign buffer overflow in ip_options_compile spotted by
AddressSanitizer[1] :

Its benign because we always can access one extra byte in skb->head
(because header is followed by struct skb_shared_info), and in this case
this byte is not even used.

batman-adv: fix TT VLAN inconsistency on VLAN re-add

2014-07-21T07:49:30+00:00

When a VLAN interface (on top of batX) is removed and
re-added within a short timeframe TT does not have enough
time to properly cleanup. This creates an internal TT state
mismatch as the newly created softif_vlan will be
initialized from scratch with a TT client count of zero
(even if TT entries for this VLAN still exist). The
resulting TT messages are bogus due to the counter / tt
client listing mismatch, thus creating inconsistencies on
every node in the network

To fix this issue destroy_vlan() has to not free the VLAN
object immediately but it has to be kept alive until all the
TT entries for this VLAN have been removed. destroy_vlan()
still removes the sysfs folder so that the user has the
feeling that everything went fine.

If the same VLAN is re-added before the old object is free'd,
then the latter is resurrected and re-used.

Implement such behaviour by increasing the reference counter
of a softif_vlan object every time a new local TT entry for
such VLAN is created and remove the object from the list
only when all the TT entries have been destroyed.

batman-adv: drop QinQ claim frames in bridge loop avoidance

2014-07-21T07:05:31+00:00

Since bridge loop avoidance only supports untagged or simple 802.1q
tagged VLAN claim frames, claim frames with stacked VLAN headers (QinQ)
should be detected and dropped. Transporting the over the mesh may cause
problems on the receivers, or create bogus entries in the local tt
tables.

net_sched: avoid generating same handle for u32 filters

2014-07-21T03:49:17+00:00

When kernel generates a handle for a u32 filter, it tries to start
from the max in the bucket. So when we have a filter with the max (fff)
handle, it will cause kernel always generates the same handle for new
filters. This can be shown by the following command:

	tc qdisc add dev eth0 ingress
	tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: protocol ip pref 770 handle 800::fff u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff
	tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: protocol ip pref 770 u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff
	...

we will get some u32 filters with same handle:

 # tc filter show dev eth0 parent ffff:
filter protocol ip pref 770 u32
filter protocol ip pref 770 u32 fh 800: ht divisor 1
filter protocol ip pref 770 u32 fh 800::fff order 4095 key ht 800 bkt 0
  match 00010000/00ff0000 at 8
filter protocol ip pref 770 u32 fh 800::fff order 4095 key ht 800 bkt 0
  match 00010000/00ff0000 at 8
filter protocol ip pref 770 u32 fh 800::fff order 4095 key ht 800 bkt 0
  match 00010000/00ff0000 at 8
filter protocol ip pref 770 u32 fh 800::fff order 4095 key ht 800 bkt 0
  match 00010000/00ff0000 at 8

handles should be unique. This patch fixes it by looking up a bitmap,
so that can guarantee the handle is as unique as possible. For compatibility,
we still start from 0x800.

net-gre-gro: Fix a bug that breaks the forwarding path

2014-07-16T21:45:26+00:00

Fixed a bug that was introduced by my GRE-GRO patch
(bf5a755f5e9186406bbf50f4087100af5bd68e40 net-gre-gro: Add GRE
support to the GRO stack) that breaks the forwarding path
because various GSO related fields were not set. The bug will
cause on the egress path either the GSO code to fail, or a
GRE-TSO capable (NETIF_F_GSO_GRE) NICs to choke. The following
fix has been tested for both cases.

net/l2tp: don't fall back on UDP [get|set]sockopt

2014-07-15T00:02:31+00:00

The l2tp [get|set]sockopt() code has fallen back to the UDP functions
for socket option levels != SOL_PPPOL2TP since day one, but that has
never actually worked, since the l2tp socket isn't an inet socket.

As David Miller points out:

  "If we wanted this to work, it'd have to look up the tunnel and then
   use tunnel->sk, but I wonder how useful that would be"

Since this can never have worked so nobody could possibly have depended
on that functionality, just remove the broken code and return -EINVAL.
