Eric Dumazet 9d410c7960 net: fix sk_forward_alloc corruption
On UDP sockets, we must call skb_free_datagram() with socket locked,
or risk sk_forward_alloc corruption. This requirement is not respected
in SUNRPC.

Add a convenient helper, skb_free_datagram_locked() and use it in SUNRPC

Eric Dumazet 55b8050353 net: Fix IP_MULTICAST_IF
ipv4/ipv6 setsockopt(IP_MULTICAST_IF) have dubious __dev_get_by_index() calls.

This function should be called only with RTNL or dev_base_lock held, or reader
could see a corrupt hash chain and eventually enter an endless loop.

Fix is to call dev_get_by_index()/dev_put().

If this happens to be performance critical, we could define a new dev_exist_by_index()
function to avoid touching dev refcount.

Sascha Hlusiak 298bf12ddb sit: fix off-by-one in ipip6_tunnel_get_prl
When requesting all prl entries (kprl.addr == INADDR_ANY) and there are
more prl entries than there is space passed from userspace, the existing
code would always copy cmax+1 entries, which is more than can be handled.

This patch makes the kernel copy only exactly cmax entries.

David S. Miller b7058842c9 net: Make setsockopt() optlen be unsigned.
This provides safety against negative optlen at the type
level instead of depending upon (sometimes non-trivial)
checks against this sprinkled all over the the place, in
each and every implementation.

Based upon work done by Arjan van de Ven and feedback
from Linus Torvalds.

Sascha Hlusiak d1f8297a96 Revert "sit: stateless autoconf for isatap"
This reverts commit 645069299a.

While the code does not actually break anything, it does not completely follow
RFC5214 yet. After talking back with Fred L. Templin, I agree that completing the
ISATAP specific RS/RA code, would pollute the kernel a lot with code that is better
implemented in userspace.

The kernel should not send RS packages for ISATAP at all.

Eric Dumazet a43912ab19 tunnel: eliminate recursion field
It seems recursion field from "struct ip_tunnel" is not anymore needed.
recursion prevention is done at the upper level (in dev_queue_xmit()),
since we use HARD_TX_LOCK protection for tunnels.

This avoids a cache line ping pong on "struct ip_tunnel" : This structure
should be now mostly read on xmit and receive paths.

Moni Shoua 75c78500dd bonding: remap muticast addresses without using dev_close() and dev_open()
This patch fixes commit e36b9d16c6. The approach
there is to call dev_close()/dev_open() whenever the device type is changed in
order to remap the device IP multicast addresses to HW multicast addresses.
This approach suffers from 2 drawbacks:

*. It assumes tha the device is UP when calling dev_close(), or otherwise
   dev_close() has no affect. It is worth to mention that initscripts (Redhat)
   and sysconfig (Suse) doesn't act the same in this matter. 
*. dev_close() has other side affects, like deleting entries from the routing
   table, which might be unnecessary.

The fix here is to directly remap the IP multicast addresses to HW multicast
addresses for a bonding device that changes its type, and nothing else.

Cosmin Ratiu a8fdf2b331 ipv6: Fix tcp_v6_send_response(): it didn't set skb transport header
Here is a patch which fixes an issue observed when using TCP over IPv6
and AH from IPsec.

When a connection gets closed the 4-way method and the last ACK from
the server gets dropped, the subsequent FINs from the client do not
get ACKed because tcp_v6_send_response does not set the transport
header pointer. This causes ah6_output to try to allocate a lot of
memory, which typically fails, so the ACKs never make it out of the
stack.

I have reproduced the problem on kernel 2.6.7, but after looking at
the latest kernel it seems the problem is still there.

Wu Fengguang aa1330766c tcp: replace hard coded GFP_KERNEL with sk_allocation
This fixed a lockdep warning which appeared when doing stress
memory tests over NFS:

	inconsistent {RECLAIM_FS-ON-W} -> {IN-RECLAIM_FS-W} usage.

	page reclaim => nfs_writepage => tcp_sendmsg => lock sk_lock

	mount_root => nfs_root_data => tcp_close => lock sk_lock =>
			tcp_send_fin => alloc_skb_fclone => page reclaim

David raised a concern that if the allocation fails in tcp_send_fin(), and it's
GFP_ATOMIC, we are going to yield() (which sleeps) and loop endlessly waiting
for the allocation to succeed.

But fact is, the original GFP_KERNEL also sleeps. GFP_ATOMIC+yield() looks
weird, but it is no worse the implicit sleep inside GFP_KERNEL. Both could
loop endlessly under memory pressure.

Eric Dumazet 6ce9e7b5fe ip: Report qdisc packet drops
Christoph Lameter pointed out that packet drops at qdisc level where not
accounted in SNMP counters. Only if application sets IP_RECVERR, drops
are reported to user (-ENOBUFS errors) and SNMP counters updated.

IP_RECVERR is used to enable extended reliable error message passing,
but these are not needed to update system wide SNMP stats.

This patch changes things a bit to allow SNMP counters to be updated,
regardless of IP_RECVERR being set or not on the socket.

Example after an UDP tx flood
# netstat -s 
...
IP:
    1487048 outgoing packets dropped
...
Udp:
...
    SndbufErrors: 1487048


send() syscalls, do however still return an OK status, to not
break applications.

Note : send() manual page explicitly says for -ENOBUFS error :

 "The output queue for a network interface was full.
  This generally indicates that the interface has stopped sending,
  but may be caused by transient congestion.
  (Normally, this does not occur in Linux. Packets are just silently
  dropped when a device queue overflows.) "

This is not true for IP_RECVERR enabled sockets : a send() syscall
that hit a qdisc drop returns an ENOBUFS error.

Many thanks to Christoph, David, and last but not least, Alexey !

David Ward 31ce8c71a3 ipv6: Update Neighbor Cache when IPv6 RA is received on a router
When processing a received IPv6 Router Advertisement, the kernel
creates or updates an IPv6 Neighbor Cache entry for the sender --
but presently this does not occur if IPv6 forwarding is enabled
(net.ipv6.conf.*.forwarding = 1), or if IPv6 Router Advertisements
are not accepted (net.ipv6.conf.*.accept_ra = 0), because in these
cases processing of the Router Advertisement has already halted.

This patch allows the Neighbor Cache to be updated in these cases,
while still avoiding any modification to routes or link parameters.

This continues to satisfy RFC 4861, since any entry created in the
Neighbor Cache as the result of a received Router Advertisement is
still placed in the STALE state.

Sascha Hlusiak 8945a808f7 sit: allow ip fragmentation when using nopmtudisc to fix package loss
if tunnel parameters have frag_off set to IP_DF, pmtudisc on the ipv4 link
will be performed by deriving the mtu from the ipv4 link and setting the
DF-Flag of the encapsulating IPv4 Header. If fragmentation is needed on the
way, the IPv4 pmtu gets adjusted, the ipv6 package will be resent eventually,
using the new and lower mtu and everyone is happy.

If the frag_off parameter is unset, the mtu for the tunnel will be derived
from the tunnel device or the ipv6 pmtu, which might be higher than the ipv4
pmtu. In that case we must allow the fragmentation of the IPv4 packet because
the IPv6 mtu wouldn't 'learn' from the adjusted IPv4 pmtu, resulting in
frequent icmp_frag_needed and package loss on the IPv6 layer.

This patch allows fragmentation when tunnel was created with parameter
nopmtudisc, like in ipip/gre tunnels.

ed78e1e078dd44249f88b1dd8c76dafb39567161 which substituted many
num_possible_cpus() with nr_cpu_ids.  As for-next branch has moved all
the first chunk allocators into mm/percpu.c, the changes are moved
from arch code to mm/percpu.c.

Gerrit Renker 26ced1e4aa inet6: Set default traffic class
This patch addresses:
 * assigning -1 to np->tclass as it is currently done is not very meaningful,
   since it turns into 0xff;
 * RFC 3542, 6.5 allows -1 for clearing the sticky IPV6_TCLASS option
   and specifies -1 to mean "use kernel default":
   - RFC 2460, 7. requires that the default traffic class must be zero for
     all 8 bits,
   - this is consistent with RFC 2474, 4.1 which recommends a default PHB of 0,
     in combination with a value of the ECN field of "non-ECT" (RFC 3168, 5.).

This patch changes the meaning of -1 from assigning 255 to mean the RFC 2460
default, which at the same time allows to satisfy clearing the sticky TCLASS
option as per RFC 3542, 6.5.

(When passing -1 as ancillary data, the fallback remains np->tclass, which
 has either been set via socket options, or contains the default value.)

Gerrit Renker e651f03afe inet6: Conversion from u8 to int
This replaces assignments of the type "int on LHS" = "u8 on RHS" with
simpler code. The LHS can express all of the unsigned right hand side
values, hence the assigned value can not be negative.

Jens Rosenboom a6fa328665 ipv6: Log the explicit address that triggered DAD failure
If an interface has multiple addresses, the current message for DAD
failure isn't really helpful, so this patch adds the address itself to
the printk.

Jan Engelhardt e2fe35c17f netfilter: xtables: check for standard verdicts in policies
This adds the second check that Rusty wanted to have a long time ago. :-)

Base chain policies must have absolute verdicts that cease processing
in the table, otherwise rule execution may continue in an unexpected
spurious fashion (e.g. next chain that follows in memory).

Jan Engelhardt 90e7d4ab5c netfilter: xtables: check for unconditionality of policies
This adds a check that iptables's original author Rusty set forth in
a FIXME comment.

Underflows in iptables are better known as chain policies, and are
required to be unconditional or there would be a stochastical chance
for the policy rule to be skipped if it does not match. If that were
to happen, rule execution would continue in an unexpected spurious
fashion.

Jan Engelhardt a7d51738e7 netfilter: xtables: ignore unassigned hooks in check_entry_size_and_hooks
The "hook_entry" and "underflow" array contains values even for hooks
not provided, such as PREROUTING in conjunction with the "filter"
table. Usually, the values point to whatever the next rule is. For
the upcoming unconditionality and underflow checking patches however,
we must not inspect that arbitrary rule.

Skipping unassigned hooks seems like a good idea, also because
newinfo->hook_entry and newinfo->underflow will then continue to have
the poison value for detecting abnormalities.

Jan Engelhardt 47901dc2c4 netfilter: xtables: use memcmp in unconditional check
Instead of inspecting each u32/char open-coded, clean up and make use
of memcmp. On some arches, memcmp is implemented as assembly or GCC's
__builtin_memcmp which can possibly take advantages of known
alignment.

Gerrit Renker 81e4321388 inet6: functions shadow global variable
This renames away a variable clash:
 * ipv6_table[] is declared as a static global table;
 * ipv6_sysctl_net_init() uses ipv6_table to refer/destroy dynamic memory;
 * ipv6_sysctl_net_exit() also uses ipv6_table for the same purpose;
 * both the two last functions call kfree() on ipv6_table.
