Guillaume Nault e08293a4cc l2tp: take reference on sessions being dumped
Take a reference on the sessions returned by l2tp_session_find_nth()
(and rename it l2tp_session_get_nth() to reflect this change), so that
caller is assured that the session isn't going to disappear while
processing it.

For procfs and debugfs handlers, the session is held in the .start()
callback and dropped in .show(). Given that pppol2tp_seq_session_show()
dereferences the associated PPPoL2TP socket and that
l2tp_dfs_seq_session_show() might call pppol2tp_show(), we also need to
call the session's .ref() callback to prevent the socket from going
away from under us.

Guillaume Nault 2777e2ab5a l2tp: take a reference on sessions used in genetlink handlers
Callers of l2tp_nl_session_find() need to hold a reference on the
returned session since there's no guarantee that it isn't going to
disappear from under them.

Relying on the fact that no l2tp netlink message may be processed
concurrently isn't enough: sessions can be deleted by other means
(e.g. by closing the PPPOL2TP socket of a ppp pseudowire).

l2tp_nl_cmd_session_delete() is a bit special: it runs a callback
function that may require a previous call to session->ref(). In
particular, for ppp pseudowires, the callback is l2tp_session_delete(),
which then calls pppol2tp_session_close() and dereferences the PPPOL2TP
socket. The socket might already be gone at the moment
l2tp_session_delete() calls session->ref(), so we need to take a
reference during the session lookup. So we need to pass the do_ref
variable down to l2tp_session_get() and l2tp_session_get_by_ifname().

Since all callers have to be updated, l2tp_session_find_by_ifname() and
l2tp_nl_session_find() are renamed to reflect their new behaviour.

Taking a reference on sessions in l2tp_recv_common() is racy; this
has to be done by the callers.

To this end, a new function is required (l2tp_session_get()) to
atomically lookup a session and take a reference on it. Callers then
have to manually drop this reference.

Eric Dumazet 72fb96e7bd l2tp: do not use udp_ioctl()
udp_ioctl(), as its name suggests, is used by UDP protocols,
but is also used by L2TP :(

L2TP should use its own handler, because it really does not
look the same.

SIOCINQ for instance should not assume UDP checksum or headers.

Thanks to Andrey and syzkaller team for providing the report
and a nice reproducer.

While crashes only happen on recent kernels (after commit
7c13f97ffd ("udp: do fwd memory scheduling on dequeue")), this
probably needs to be backported to older kernels.

Guillaume Nault bb5016eac1 l2tp: fix manual sequencing (de)activation in L2TPv2
Commit e0d4435f "l2tp: Update PPP-over-L2TP driver to work over L2TPv3"
broke the PPPOL2TP_SO_SENDSEQ setsockopt. The L2TP header length was
previously computed by pppol2tp_l2t_header_len() before each call to
l2tp_xmit_skb(). Now that header length is retrieved from the hdr_len
session field, this field must be updated every time the L2TP header
format is modified, or l2tp_xmit_skb() won't push the right amount of
data for the L2TP header.

This patch uses l2tp_session_set_header_len() to adjust hdr_len every
time sequencing is (de)activated from userspace (either by the
PPPOL2TP_SO_SENDSEQ setsockopt or the L2TP_ATTR_SEND_SEQ netlink
attribute).

James Chapman a0dbd82227 l2tp: make datapath resilient to packet loss when sequence numbers enabled
If L2TP data sequence numbers are enabled and reordering is not
enabled, data reception stops if a packet is lost since the kernel
waits for a sequence number that is never resent. (When reordering is
enabled, data reception restarts when the reorder timeout expires.) If
no reorder timeout is set, we should count the number of in-sequence
packets after the out-of-sequence (OOS) condition is detected, and reset
sequence number state after a number of such packets are received.

For now, the number of in-sequence packets while in OOS state which
cause the sequence number state to be reset is hard-coded to 5. This
could be configurable later.

James Chapman 8a1631d588 l2tp: make datapath sequence number support RFC-compliant
The L2TP datapath is not currently RFC-compliant when sequence numbers
are used in L2TP data packets. According to the L2TP RFC, any received
sequence number NR greater than or equal to the next expected NR is
acceptable, where the "greater than or equal to" test is determined by
the NR wrap point. This differs for L2TPv2 and L2TPv3, so add state in
the session context to hold the max NR value and the NR window size in
order to do the acceptable sequence number value check. These might be
configurable later, but for now we derive it from the tunnel L2TP
version, which determines the sequence number field size.

Tom Parkin f6e16b299b l2tp: unhash l2tp sessions on delete, not on free
If we postpone unhashing of l2tp sessions until the structure is freed, we
risk:

 1. further packets arriving and getting queued while the pseudowire is being
    closed down
 2. the recv path hitting "scheduling while atomic" errors in the case that
    recv drops the last reference to a session and calls l2tp_session_free
    while in atomic context

As such, l2tp sessions should be unhashed from l2tp_core data structures early
in the teardown process prior to calling pseudowire close.  For pseudowires
like l2tp_ppp which have multiple shutdown codepaths, provide an unhash hook.

Tom Parkin 7b7c0719cd l2tp: avoid deadlock in l2tp stats update
l2tp's u64_stats writers were incorrectly synchronised, making it possible to
deadlock a 64bit machine running a 32bit kernel simply by sending the l2tp
code netlink commands while passing data through l2tp sessions.

Previous discussion on netdev determined that alternative solutions such as
spinlock writer synchronisation or per-cpu data would bring unjustified
overhead, given that most users interested in high volume traffic will likely
be running 64bit kernels on 64bit hardware.

As such, this patch replaces l2tp's use of u64_stats with atomic_long_t,
thereby avoiding the deadlock.

Tom Parkin 80d84ef3ff l2tp: prevent l2tp_tunnel_delete racing with userspace close
If a tunnel socket is created by userspace, l2tp hooks the socket destructor
in order to clean up resources if userspace closes the socket or crashes.  It
also caches a pointer to the struct sock for use in the data path and in the
netlink interface.

While it is safe to use the cached sock pointer in the data path, where the
skb references keep the socket alive, it is not safe to use it elsewhere as
such access introduces a race with userspace closing the socket.  In
particular, l2tp_tunnel_delete is prone to oopsing if a multithreaded
userspace application closes a socket at the same time as sending a netlink
delete command for the tunnel.

This patch fixes this oops by forcing l2tp_tunnel_delete to explicitly look up
a tunnel socket held by userspace using sockfd_lookup().

James Chapman 38d40b3f4e l2tp: fix reorder timeout recovery
When L2TP data packet reordering is enabled, packets are held in a
queue while waiting for out-of-sequence packets. If a packet gets
lost, packets will be held until the reorder timeout expires, when we
are supposed to then advance to the sequence number of the next packet
but we don't currently do so. As a result, the data channel is stuck
because we are waiting for a packet that will never arrive - all
packets age out and none are passed.

The fix is to add a flag to the session context, which is set when the
reorder timeout expires and tells the receive code to reset the next
expected sequence number to that of the next packet in the queue.

Tested in a production L2TP network with Starent and Nortel L2TP gear.

Eric Dumazet 7bddd0db62 l2tp: unmanaged L2TPv3 tunnels fixes
Followup to commit 789a4a2c 
(l2tp: Add support for static unmanaged L2TPv3 tunnels)

One missing init in l2tp_tunnel_sock_create() could access random kernel
memory, and a bit field should be unsigned.

James Chapman 789a4a2c61 l2tp: Add support for static unmanaged L2TPv3 tunnels
This patch adds support for static (unmanaged) L2TPv3 tunnels, where
the tunnel socket is created by the kernel rather than being created
by userspace. This means L2TP tunnels and sessions can be created
manually, without needing an L2TP control protocol implemented in
userspace. This might be useful where the user wants a simple ethernet
over IP tunnel.

A patch to iproute2 adds a new command set under "ip l2tp" to make use
of this feature. This will be submitted separately.

James Chapman 0ad6614048 l2tp: Add debugfs files for dumping l2tp debug info
The existing pppol2tp driver exports debug info to
/proc/net/pppol2tp. Rather than adding info to that file for the new
functionality added in this patch series, we add new files in debugfs,
leaving the old /proc file for backwards compatibility (L2TPv2 only).

Currently only one file is provided: l2tp/tunnels, which lists
internal debug info for all l2tp tunnels and sessions. More files may
be added later. The info is for debug and problem analysis only -
userspace apps should use netlink to obtain status about l2tp tunnels
and sessions.

Although debugfs does not support net namespaces, the tunnels and
sessions dumped in l2tp/tunnels are only those in the net namespace of
the process reading the file.

James Chapman 309795f4be l2tp: Add netlink control API for L2TP
In L2TPv3, we need to create/delete/modify/query L2TP tunnel and
session contexts. The number of parameters is significant. So let's
use netlink. Userspace uses this API to control L2TP tunnel/session
contexts in the kernel.

The previous pppol2tp driver was managed using [gs]etsockopt(). This
API is retained for backwards compatibility. Unlike L2TPv2 which
carries only PPP frames, L2TPv3 can carry raw ethernet frames or other
frame types and these do not always have an associated socket
family. Therefore, we need a way to use L2TP sessions that doesn't
require a socket type for each supported frame type. Hence netlink is
used.

James Chapman 0d76751fad l2tp: Add L2TPv3 IP encapsulation (no UDP) support
This patch adds a new L2TPIP socket family and modifies the core to
handle the case where there is no UDP header in the L2TP
packet. L2TP/IP uses IP protocol 115. Since L2TP/UDP and L2TP/IP
packets differ in layout, the datapath packet handling code needs
changes too. Userspace uses an L2TPIP socket instead of a UDP socket
when IP encapsulation is required.

We can't use raw sockets for this because the semantics of raw sockets
don't lend themselves to the socket-per-tunnel model - we need to

James Chapman f7faffa3ff l2tp: Add L2TPv3 protocol support
The L2TPv3 protocol changes the layout of the L2TP packet
header. Tunnel and session ids change from 16-bit to 32-bit values,
data sequence numbers change from 16-bit to 24-bit values and PPP-specific
fields are moved into protocol-specific subheaders.

Although this patch introduces L2TPv3 protocol support, there are no
userspace interfaces to create L2TPv3 sessions yet.

James Chapman fd558d186d l2tp: Split pppol2tp patch into separate l2tp and ppp parts
This patch splits the pppol2tp driver into separate L2TP and PPP parts
to prepare for L2TPv3 support. In L2TPv3, protocols other than PPP can
be carried, so this split creates a common L2TP core that will handle
the common L2TP bits which protocol support modules such as PPP will
use.

Note that the existing pppol2tp module is split into l2tp_core and
l2tp_ppp by this change.

There are no feature changes here. Internally, however, there are
significant changes, mostly to handle the separation of PPP-specific
data from the L2TP session and to provide hooks in the core for
modules like PPP to access.
