2018-12-17neighbour: Avoid writing before skb->head in neigh_hh_output()Stefano Brivio
[ Upstream commit e6ac64d4c4d095085d7dd71cbd05704ac99829b2 ] While skb_push() makes the kernel panic if the skb headroom is less than the unaligned hardware header size, it will proceed normally in case we copy more than that because of alignment, and we'll silently corrupt adjacent slabs. In the case fixed by the previous patch, "ipv6: Check available headroom in ip6_xmit() even without options", we end up in neigh_hh_output() with 14 bytes headroom, 14 bytes hardware header and write 16 bytes, starting 2 bytes before the allocated buffer. Always check we're not writing before skb->head and, if the headroom is not enough, warn and drop the packet. v2: - instead of panicking with BUG_ON(), WARN_ON_ONCE() and drop the packet (Eric Dumazet) - if we avoid the panic, though, we need to explicitly check the headroom before the memcpy(), otherwise we'll have corrupted slabs on a running kernel, after we warn - use __skb_push() instead of skb_push(), as the headroom check is already implemented here explicitly (Eric Dumazet) Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2015-08-10net: add explicit logging and stat for neighbour table overflowRick Jones
Add an explicit neighbour table overflow message (ratelimited) and statistic to make diagnosing neighbour table overflows tractable in the wild. Diagnosing a neighbour table overflow can be quite difficult in the wild because there is no explicit dmesg logged. Callers to neighbour code seem to use net_dbg_ratelimit when the neighbour call fails which means the "base message" is not emitted and the callback suppressed messages from the ratelimiting can end-up juxtaposed with unrelated messages. Further, a forced garbage collection will increment a stat on each call whether it was successful in freeing-up a table entry or not, so that statistic is only a hint. So, add a net_info_ratelimited message and explicit statistic to the neighbour code. Signed-off-by: Rick Jones <rick.jones2@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2015-03-20net: neighbour: Add mcast_resolicit to configure the number of multicast ↵YOSHIFUJI Hideaki/吉藤英明
resolicitations in PROBE state. We send unicast neighbor (ARP or NDP) solicitations ucast_probes times in PROBE state. Zhu Yanjun reported that some implementation does not reply against them and the entry will become FAILED, which is undesirable. We had been dealt with such nodes by sending multicast probes mcast_ solicit times after unicast probes in PROBE state. In 2003, I made a change not to send them to improve compatibility with IPv6 NDP. Let's introduce per-protocol per-interface sysctl knob "mcast_ reprobe" to configure the number of multicast (re)solicitation for reconfirmation in PROBE state. The default is 0, since we have been doing so for 10+ years.

2015-03-12net: Introduce possible_net_tEric W. Biederman
Having to say > #ifdef CONFIG_NET_NS > struct net *net; > #endif in structures is a little bit wordy and a little bit error prone. Instead it is possible to say: > typedef struct { > #ifdef CONFIG_NET_NS > struct net *net; > #endif > } possible_net_t; And then in a header say: > possible_net_t net; Which is cleaner and easier to use and easier to test, as the possible_net_t is always there no matter what the compile options. Further this allows read_pnet and write_pnet to be functions in all cases which is better at catching typos. This change adds possible_net_t, updates the definitions of read_pnet and write_pnet, updates optional struct net * variables that write_pnet uses on to have the type possible_net_t, and finally fixes up the b0rked users of read_pnet and write_pnet.

2015-03-04neigh: Add helper function neigh_xmitEric W. Biederman
For MPLS I am building the code so that either the neighbour mac address can be specified or we can have a next hop in ipv4 or ipv6. The kind of next hop we have is indicated by the neighbour table pointer. A neighbour table pointer of NULL is a link layer address. A non-NULL neighbour table pointer indicates which neighbour table and thus which address family the next hop address is in that we need to look up. The code either sends a packet directly or looks up the appropriate neighbour table entry and sends the packet. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2015-03-04neigh: Factor out ___neigh_lookup_norefEric W. Biederman
While looking at the mpls code I found myself writing yet another version of neigh_lookup_noref. We currently have __ipv4_lookup_noref and __ipv6_lookup_noref. So to make my work a little easier and to make it a smidge easier to verify/maintain the mpls code in the future I stopped and wrote ___neigh_lookup_noref. Then I rewote __ipv4_lookup_noref and __ipv6_lookup_noref in terms of this new function. I tested my new version by verifying that the same code is generated in ip_finish_output2 and ip6_finish_output2 where these functions are inlined. To get to ___neigh_lookup_noref I added a new neighbour cache table function key_eq. So that the static size of the key would be available. I also added __neigh_lookup_noref for people who want to to lookup a neighbour table entry quickly but don't know which neibhgour table they are going to look up. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

2014-09-26netfilter: bridge: move br_netfilter out of the corePablo Neira Ayuso
Jesper reported that br_netfilter always registers the hooks since this is part of the bridge core. This harms performance for people that don't need this. This patch modularizes br_netfilter so it can be rmmod'ed, thus, the hooks can be unregistered. I think the bridge netfilter should have been a separated module since the beginning, Patrick agreed on that. Note that this is breaking compatibility for users that expect that bridge netfilter is going to be available after explicitly 'modprobe bridge' or via automatic load through brctl. However, the damage can be easily undone by modprobing br_netfilter. The bridge core also spots a message to provide a clue to people that didn't notice that this has been deprecated. On top of that, the plan is that nftables will not rely on this software layer, but integrate the connection tracking into the bridge layer to enable stateful filtering and NAT, which is was bridge netfilter users seem to require. This patch still keeps the fake_dst_ops in the bridge core, since this is required by when the bridge port is initialized. So we can safely modprobe/rmmod br_netfilter anytime.

The code, though, expresses this in the most ugly way. Get rid of the ugly casts and use the 'tbl' pointer to get a handle to the table. This way we can refer to the 'gc_*' variables directly.

2013-12-11ipv6: router reachability probingJiri Benc
RFC 4191 states in 3.5: When a host avoids using any non-reachable router X and instead sends a data packet to another router Y, and the host would have used router X if router X were reachable, then the host SHOULD probe each such router X's reachability by sending a single Neighbor Solicitation to that router's address. A host MUST NOT probe a router's reachability in the absence of useful traffic that the host would have sent to the router if it were reachable. In any case, these probes MUST be rate-limited to no more than one per minute per router. Currently, when the neighbour corresponding to a router falls into NUD_FAILED, it's never considered again. Introduce a new rt6_nud_state value, RT6_NUD_FAIL_PROBE, which suggests the route should not be used but should be probed with a single NS. The probe is ratelimited by the existing code. To better distinguish meanings of the failure values, rename RT6_NUD_FAIL_SOFT to RT6_NUD_FAIL_DO_RR.

2013-12-09neigh: restore old behaviour of default parms valuesJiri Pirko
Previously inet devices were only constructed when addresses are added. Therefore the default neigh parms values they get are the ones at the time of these operations. Now that we're creating inet devices earlier, this changes the behaviour of default neigh parms values in an incompatible way (see bug #8519). This patch creates a compromise by setting the default values at the same point as before but only for those that have not been explicitly set by the user since the inet device's creation.

When allocating memory for neighbour cache entry, if tbl->entry_size is not set, we always calculate sizeof(struct neighbour) + tbl->key_len, which is common in the same table. With this change, set tbl->entry_size during the table initialization phase, if it was not set, and use it in neigh_alloc() and neighbour_priv(). This change also allow us to have both of protocol private data and device priate data at tha same time.

[PATCH V5 net-next] neigh: new unresolved queue limits unres_qlen is the number of frames we are able to queue per unresolved neighbour. Its default value (3) was never changed and is responsible for strange drops, especially if IP fragments are used, or multiple sessions start in parallel.

Now that there is a one-to-one correspondance between neighbour and hh_cache entries, we no longer need: 1) dynamic allocation 2) attachment to dst->hh 3) refcounting Initialization of the hh_cache entry is indicated by hh_len being non-zero, and such initialization is always done with the neighbour's lock held as a writer.

2011-07-11neigh: Store hash shift instead of mask.David S. Miller
And mask the hash function result by simply shifting down the "->hash_shift" most significant bits. Currently which bits we use is arbitrary since jhash produces entropy evenly across the whole hash function result. But soon we'll be using universal hashing functions, and in those cases more entropy exists in the higher bits than the lower bits, because they use multiplies. Signed-off-by: David S.

I guess its time for a sleep, sorry again. [PATCH net-next V2] neigh: reorder struct neighbour fields (refcnt) and (ha_lock, ha, used, dev, output, ops, primary_key) should be placed on a separate cache lines. refcnt can be often written, while other fields are mostly read. This gave me good result on stress test : before: real 0m45.570s user 0m15.525s sys 9m56.669s After: real 0m41.841s user 0m15.261s sys 8m45.949s Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-10-11neigh: Protect neigh->ha[] with a seqlockEric Dumazet
Add a seqlock in struct neighbour to protect neigh->ha[], and avoid dirtying neighbour in stress situation (many different flows / dsts) Dirtying takes place because of read_lock(&n->lock) and n->used writes. Switching to a seqlock, and writing n->used only on jiffies changes permits less dirtying. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-10-06neigh: RCU conversion of struct neighbourEric Dumazet
This is the second step for neighbour RCU conversion. (first was commit d6bf7817 : RCU conversion of neigh hash table) neigh_lookup() becomes lockless, but still take a reference on found neighbour. (no more read_lock()/read_unlock() on tbl->lock) struct neighbour gets an additional rcu_head field and is freed after an RCU grace period. Future work would need to eventually not take a reference on neighbour for temporary dst (DST_NOCACHE), but this would need dst->_neighbour to use a noref bit like we did for skb->_dst.
