tcp: resets are misrouted

2012-10-30T23:26:35Z

[ Upstream commit 4c67525849e0b7f4bd4fab2487ec9e43ea52ef29 ] After commit e2446eaa ("tcp_v4_send_reset: binding oif to iif in no sock case").. tcp resets are always lost, when routing is asymmetric. Yes, backing out that patch will result in misrouting of resets for dead connections which used interface binding when were alive, but we actually cannot do anything here. What's died that's died and correct handling normal unbound connections is obviously a priority. Comment to comment: > This has few benefits: > 1. tcp_v6_send_reset already did that. It was done to route resets for IPv6 link local addresses. It was a mistake to do so for global addresses. The patch fixes this as well. Actually, the problem appears to be even more serious than guaranteed loss of resets. As reported by Sergey Soloviev , those misrouted resets create a lot of arp traffic and huge amount of unresolved arp entires putting down to knees NAT firewalls which use asymmetric routing.

netfilter: nf_nat_sip: fix via header translation with multiple parameters

2012-10-17T02:50:05Z

commit f22eb25cf5b1157b29ef88c793b71972efc47143 upstream. Via-headers are parsed beginning at the first character after the Via-address. When the address is translated first and its length decreases, the offset to start parsing at is incorrect and header parameters might be missed. Update the offset after translating the Via-address to fix this. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings

netfilter: nf_nat_sip: fix incorrect handling of EBUSY for RTCP expectation

netfilter: nf_ct_ipv4: packets with wrong ihl are invalid

2012-10-17T02:50:04Z

commit 07153c6ec074257ade76a461429b567cff2b3a1e upstream. It was reported that the Linux kernel sometimes logs: klogd: [2629147.402413] kernel BUG at net / netfilter / nf_conntrack_proto_tcp.c: 447! klogd: [1072212.887368] kernel BUG at net / netfilter / nf_conntrack_proto_tcp.c: 392 ipv4_get_l4proto() in nf_conntrack_l3proto_ipv4.c and tcp_error() in nf_conntrack_proto_tcp.c should catch malformed packets, so the errors at the indicated lines - TCP options parsing - should not happen. However, tcp_error() relies on the "dataoff" offset to the TCP header, calculated by ipv4_get_l4proto(). But ipv4_get_l4proto() does not check bogus ihl values in IPv4 packets, which then can slip through tcp_error() and get caught at the TCP options parsing routines. The patch fixes ipv4_get_l4proto() by invalidating packets with bogus ihl value. The patch closes netfilter bugzilla id 771.

tcp: flush DMA queue before sk_wait_data if rcv_wnd is zero

2012-10-10T02:31:29Z

[ Upstream commit 15c041759bfcd9ab0a4e43f1c16e2644977d0467 ] If recv() syscall is called for a TCP socket so that - IOAT DMA is used - MSG_WAITALL flag is used - requested length is bigger than sk_rcvbuf - enough data has already arrived to bring rcv_wnd to zero then when tcp_recvmsg() gets to calling sk_wait_data(), receive window can be still zero while sk_async_wait_queue exhausts enough space to keep it zero. As this queue isn't cleaned until the tcp_service_net_dma() call, sk_wait_data() cannot receive any data and blocks forever. If zero receive window and non-empty sk_async_wait_queue is detected before calling sk_wait_data(), process the queue first. Signed-off-by: Michal Kubecek Signed-off-by: David S.

net: ipv4: ipmr_expire_timer causes crash when removing net namespace

2012-09-19T14:04:57Z

[ Upstream commit acbb219d5f53821b2d0080d047800410c0420ea1 ] When tearing down a net namespace, ipv4 mr_table structures are freed without first deactivating their timers. This can result in a crash in run_timer_softirq. This patch mimics the corresponding behaviour in ipv6. Locking and synchronization seem to be adequate. We are about to kfree mrt, so existing code should already make sure that no other references to mrt are pending or can be created by incoming traffic. The functions invoked here do not cause new references to mrt or other race conditions to be created. Invoking del_timer_sync guarantees that ipmr_expire_timer is inactive. Both ipmr_expire_process (whose completion we may have to wait in del_timer_sync) and mroute_clean_tables internally use mfc_unres_lock or other synchronizations when needed, and they both only modify mrt. Tested in Linux 3.4.8. Signed-off-by: Francesco Ruggeri Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings

tcp: perform DMA to userspace only if there is a task waiting for it

2012-08-19T17:15:25Z

[ Upstream commit 59ea33a68a9083ac98515e4861c00e71efdc49a1 ] Back in 2006, commit 1a2449a87b ("[I/OAT]: TCP recv offload to I/OAT") added support for receive offloading to IOAT dma engine if available. The code in tcp_rcv_established() tries to perform early DMA copy if applicable. It however does so without checking whether the userspace task is actually expecting the data in the buffer. This is not a problem under normal circumstances, but there is a corner case where this doesn't work -- and that's when MSG_TRUNC flag to recvmsg() is used. If the IOAT dma engine is not used, the code properly checks whether there is a valid ucopy.task and the socket is owned by userspace, but misses the check in the dmaengine case. This problem can be observed in real trivially -- for example 'tbench' is a good reproducer, as it makes a heavy use of MSG_TRUNC. On systems utilizing IOAT, you will soon find tbench waiting indefinitely in sk_wait_data(), as they have been already early-copied in tcp_rcv_established() using dma engine. This patch introduces the same check we are performing in the simple iovec copy case to the IOAT case as well. It fixes the indefinite recvmsg(MSG_TRUNC) hangs.

tcp: Add TCP_USER_TIMEOUT negative value check

2012-08-19T17:15:24Z

[ Upstream commit 42493570100b91ef663c4c6f0c0fdab238f9d3c2 ] TCP_USER_TIMEOUT is a TCP level socket option that takes an unsigned int. But patch "tcp: Add TCP_USER_TIMEOUT socket option"(dca43c75) didn't check the negative values. If a user assign -1 to it, the socket will set successfully and wait for 4294967295 miliseconds. This patch add a negative value check to avoid this issue. Signed-off-by: Hangbin Liu Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings
