The PPP channel MTU is used with Multilink PPP when ppp_mp_explode() (see
ppp_generic module) tries to determine how big a fragment might be. According
to RFC 1661, the MTU excludes the 2-byte PPP protocol field, see the
corresponding comment and code in ppp_mp_explode():
/*
* hdrlen includes the 2-byte PPP protocol field, but the
* MTU counts only the payload excluding the protocol field.
* (RFC1661 Section 2)
*/
mtu = pch->chan->mtu - (hdrlen - 2);
However, the pppoe module *does* include the PPP protocol field in the channel
MTU, which is wrong as it causes the PPP payload to be 1-2 bytes too big under
certain circumstances (one byte if PPP protocol compression is used, two
otherwise), causing the generated Ethernet packets to be dropped. So the pppoe
module has to subtract two bytes from the channel MTU. This error only
manifests itself when using Multilink PPP, as otherwise the channel MTU is not
used anywhere.
In the following, I will describe how to reproduce this bug. We configure two
pppd instances for multilink PPP over two PPPoE links, say eth2 and eth3, with
a MTU of 1492 bytes for each link and a MRRU of 2976 bytes. (This MRRU is
computed by adding the two link MTUs and subtracting the MP header twice, which
is 4 bytes long.) The necessary pppd statements on both sides are "multilink
mtu 1492 mru 1492 mrru 2976". On the client side, we additionally need "plugin
rp-pppoe.so eth2" and "plugin rp-pppoe.so eth3", respectively; on the server
side, we additionally need to start two pppoe-server instances to be able to
establish two PPPoE sessions, one over eth2 and one over eth3. We set the MTU
of the PPP network interface to the MRRU (2976) on both sides of the connection
in order to make use of the higher bandwidth. (If we didn't do that, IP
fragmentation would kick in, which we want to avoid.)
Now we send a ICMPv4 echo request with a payload of 2948 bytes from client to
server over the PPP link. This results in the following network packet:
2948 (echo payload)
+ 8 (ICMPv4 header)
+ 20 (IPv4 header)
---------------------
2976 (PPP payload)
These 2976 bytes do not exceed the MTU of the PPP network interface, so the
IP packet is not fragmented. Now the multilink PPP code in ppp_mp_explode()
prepends one protocol byte (0x21 for IPv4), making the packet one byte bigger
than the negotiated MRRU. So this packet would have to be divided in three
fragments. But this does not happen as each link MTU is assumed to be two bytes
larger. So this packet is diveded into two fragments only, one of size 1489 and
one of size 1488. Now we have for that bigger fragment:
1489 (PPP payload)
+ 4 (MP header)
+ 2 (PPP protocol field for the MP payload (0x3d))
+ 6 (PPPoE header)
--------------------------
1501 (Ethernet payload)
This packet exceeds the link MTU and is discarded.
If one configures the link MTU on the client side to 1501, one can see the
discarded Ethernet frames with tcpdump running on the client. A
ping -s 2948 -c 1 192.168.15.254
leads to the smaller fragment that is correctly received on the server side:
(tcpdump -vvvne -i eth3 pppoes and ppp proto 0x3d)
52:54:00:ad:87:fd > 52:54:00:79:5c:d0, ethertype PPPoE S (0x8864),
length 1514: PPPoE [ses 0x3] MLPPP (0x003d), length 1494: seq 0x000,
Flags [end], length 1492
and to the bigger fragment that is not received on the server side:
(tcpdump -vvvne -i eth2 pppoes and ppp proto 0x3d)
52:54:00:70:9e:89 > 52:54:00:5d:6f:b0, ethertype PPPoE S (0x8864),
length 1515: PPPoE [ses 0x5] MLPPP (0x003d), length 1495: seq 0x000,
Flags [begin], length 1493
With the patch below, we correctly obtain three fragments:
52:54:00:ad:87:fd > 52:54:00:79:5c:d0, ethertype PPPoE S (0x8864),
length 1514: PPPoE [ses 0x1] MLPPP (0x003d), length 1494: seq 0x000,
Flags [begin], length 1492
52:54:00:70:9e:89 > 52:54:00:5d:6f:b0, ethertype PPPoE S (0x8864),
length 1514: PPPoE [ses 0x1] MLPPP (0x003d), length 1494: seq 0x000,
Flags [none], length 1492
52:54:00:ad:87:fd > 52:54:00:79:5c:d0, ethertype PPPoE S (0x8864),
length 27: PPPoE [ses 0x1] MLPPP (0x003d), length 7: seq 0x000,
Flags [end], length 5
And the ICMPv4 echo request is successfully received at the server side:
IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 21925, offset 0, flags [DF], proto ICMP (1),
length 2976)
192.168.222.2 > 192.168.15.254: ICMP echo request, id 30530, seq 0,
length 2956

expresses this in the most ugly way.
Get rid of the ugly casts and use the 'tbl' pointer to get a handle to

While working on some other SCTP code, I noticed that some
structures shared with user space are leaking uninitialized
stack or heap buffer. In particular, struct sctp_sndrcvinfo
has a 2 bytes hole between .sinfo_flags and .sinfo_ppid that
remains unfilled by us in sctp_ulpevent_read_sndrcvinfo() when
putting this into cmsg. But also struct sctp_remote_error
contains a 2 bytes hole that we don't fill but place into a skb
through skb_copy_expand() via sctp_ulpevent_make_remote_error().
Both structures are defined by the IETF in RFC6458:
* Section 5.3.2. SCTP Header Information Structure:
The sctp_sndrcvinfo structure is defined below:
struct sctp_sndrcvinfo {
uint16_t sinfo_stream;
uint16_t sinfo_ssn;
uint16_t sinfo_flags;
<-- 2 bytes hole -->
uint32_t sinfo_ppid;
uint32_t sinfo_context;
uint32_t sinfo_timetolive;
uint32_t sinfo_tsn;
uint32_t sinfo_cumtsn;
sctp_assoc_t sinfo_assoc_id;
};
* 6.1.3. SCTP_REMOTE_ERROR:
A remote peer may send an Operation Error message to its peer.
This message indicates a variety of error conditions on an
association. The entire ERROR chunk as it appears on the wire
is included in an SCTP_REMOTE_ERROR event. Please refer to the
SCTP specification [RFC4960] and any extensions for a list of
possible error formats. An SCTP error notification has the
following format:
struct sctp_remote_error {
uint16_t sre_type;
uint16_t sre_flags;
uint32_t sre_length;
uint16_t sre_error;
<-- 2 bytes hole -->
sctp_assoc_t sre_assoc_id;
uint8_t sre_data[];
};
Fix this by setting both to 0 before filling them out. We also
have other structures shared between user and kernel space in
SCTP that contains holes (e.g. struct sctp_paddrthlds), but we
copy that buffer over from user space first and thus don't need
to care about it in that cases.
While at it, we can also remove lengthy comments copied from
the draft, instead, we update the comment with the correct RFC
number where one can look it up.

If the 'next' pointer of the last fragment buffer in a message is not
zeroed before reassembly, we risk ending up with a corrupt message,
since the reassembly function itself isn't doing this.
Currently, when a buffer is retrieved from the deferred queue of the
broadcast link, the next pointer is not cleared, with the result as
described above.
This commit corrects this, and thereby fixes a bug that may occur when

netlink_dump() returns a negative errno value on error. Until now,
netlink_recvmsg() directly recorded that negative value in sk->sk_err, but
that's wrong since sk_err takes positive errno values. (This manifests as
userspace receiving a positive return value from the recv() system call,
falsely indicating success.) This bug was introduced in the commit that
started checking the netlink_dump() return value, commit b44d211 (netlink:

Multithreaded Netlink dumps are one way to trigger this behavior in

As reported by Maggie Mae Roxas, the mvneta driver doesn't behave
properly in 10 Mbit/s mode. This is due to a misconfiguration of the
MVNETA_GMAC_AUTONEG_CONFIG register: bit MVNETA_GMAC_CONFIG_MII_SPEED
must be set for a 100 Mbit/s speed, but cleared for a 10 Mbit/s speed,
which the driver was not properly doing. This commit adjusts that by
setting the MVNETA_GMAC_CONFIG_MII_SPEED bit only in 100 Mbit/s mode,
and relying on the fact that all the speed related bits of this
register are cleared at the beginning of the mvneta_adjust_link()
function.

This patch fixes 3 similar bugs where incoming packets might be routed into
wrong non-wildcard tunnels:
1) Consider the following setup:
ip address add 1.1.1.1/24 dev eth0
ip address add 1.1.1.2/24 dev eth0
ip tunnel add ipip1 remote 2.2.2.2 local 1.1.1.1 mode ipip dev eth0
ip link set ipip1 up
Incoming ipip packets from 2.2.2.2 were routed into ipip1 even if it has dst =
1.1.1.2. Moreover even if there was wildcard tunnel like
ip tunnel add ipip0 remote 2.2.2.2 local any mode ipip dev eth0
but it was created before explicit one (with local 1.1.1.1), incoming ipip
packets with src = 2.2.2.2 and dst = 1.1.1.2 were still routed into ipip1.
Same issue existed with all tunnels that use ip_tunnel_lookup (gre, vti)
2) ip address add 1.1.1.1/24 dev eth0
ip tunnel add ipip1 remote 2.2.146.85 local 1.1.1.1 mode ipip dev eth0
ip link set ipip1 up
Incoming ipip packets with dst = 1.1.1.1 were routed into ipip1, no matter what
src address is. Any remote ip address which has ip_tunnel_hash = 0 raised this
issue, 2.2.146.85 is just an example, there are more than 4 million of them.
And again, wildcard tunnel like
ip tunnel add ipip0 remote any local 1.1.1.1 mode ipip dev eth0
wouldn't be ever matched if it was created before explicit tunnel like above.
Gre & vti tunnels had the same issue.
3) ip address add 1.1.1.1/24 dev eth0
ip tunnel add gre1 remote 2.2.146.84 local 1.1.1.1 key 1 mode gre dev eth0
ip link set gre1 up
Any incoming gre packet with key = 1 were routed into gre1, no matter what
src/dst addresses are. Any remote ip address which has ip_tunnel_hash = 0 raised
the issue, 2.2.146.84 is just an example, there are more than 4 million of them.
Wildcard tunnel like
ip tunnel add gre2 remote any local any key 1 mode gre dev eth0
wouldn't be ever matched if it was created before explicit tunnel like above.
All this stuff happened because while looking for a wildcard tunnel we didn't
check that matched tunnel is a wildcard one. Fixed.

In xennet_disconnect_backend(), netif_carrier_off() was called once
per queue when it needs to only be called once.
The queue locking around the netif_carrier_off() call looked very
odd. I think they were supposed to synchronize any NAPI instances with
the expectation that no further NAPI instances would be scheduled
because of the carrier being off (see the check in
xennet_rx_interrupt()). But I can't easily tell if this works
correctly.
Instead, add a napi_synchronize() call after disabling the interrupts.
This is obviously correct as with no Rx interrupts, no further NAPI
instances will be scheduled.

The nesting of the per-queue rx_lock and tx_lock in xennet_connect()

this is the only place where the locks are nested in this way but
lockdep still warns.
Instead of adding the missing lockdep annotations, refactor the
locking to avoid the confusing nesting. This is still safe, because
the xenbus connection state changes are all serialized by the xenwatch

2) the retransmission never fails locally (e.g., qdisc drop)
so undo_marker is set in tcp_enter_recovery() and undo_retrans is
incremented only when tcp_retransmit_skb() is successful.
When the assumption is broken because TCP's cwnd is too small to
retransmit or the retransmit fails locally. The next (DUP)ACK

tcp_try_undo_dsack() or tcp_may_undo(). Subsequent (DUP)ACKs
may enter the recovery state. The sender repeatedly enter and
(incorrectly) exit recovery states if the retransmits continue to
fail locally while receiving (DUP)ACKs.
The fix is to initialize undo_retrans to -1 and start counting on
the first retransmission. Always increment undo_retrans even if the
retransmissions fail locally because they couldn't cause DSACKs to
undo the cwnd reduction.

The add_vxlan_port ndo driver code was wrongly testing whether HW vxlan offloads
are supported by the device instead of checking if they are currently enabled.
This causes the driver to configure the HW parser to conduct matching for vxlan
packets but since no steering rules were set, vxlan packets are dropped on RX.
Fix that by doing the right test, as done in the del_vxlan_port ndo handler.

The problem was triggered by these steps:
1) create socket, bind and then setsockopt for add mc group.
mreq.imr_multiaddr.s_addr = inet_addr("255.0.0.37");
mreq.imr_interface.s_addr = inet_addr("192.168.1.2");
setsockopt(sockfd, IPPROTO_IP, IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP, &mreq, sizeof(mreq));
2) drop the mc group for this socket.
mreq.imr_multiaddr.s_addr = inet_addr("255.0.0.37");
mreq.imr_interface.s_addr = inet_addr("0.0.0.0");
setsockopt(sockfd, IPPROTO_IP, IP_DROP_MEMBERSHIP, &mreq, sizeof(mreq));
3) and then drop the socket, I found the mc group was still used by the dev:
netstat -g
Interface RefCnt Group
--------------- ------ ---------------------
eth2 1 255.0.0.37
Normally even though the IP_DROP_MEMBERSHIP return error, the mc group still need
to be released for the netdev when drop the socket, but this process was broken when
route default is NULL, the reason is that:
The ip_mc_leave_group() will choose the in_dev by the imr_interface.s_addr, if input addr
is NULL, the default route dev will be chosen, then the ifindex is got from the dev,
then polling the inet->mc_list and return -ENODEV, but if the default route dev is NULL,
the in_dev and ifIndex is both NULL, when polling the inet->mc_list, the mc group will be
released from the mc_list, but the dev didn't dec the refcnt for this mc group, so
when dropping the socket, the mc_list is NULL and the dev still keep this group.
v1->v2: According Hideaki's suggestion, we should align with IPv6 (RFC3493) and BSDs,
so I add the checking for the in_dev before polling the mc_list, make sure when
we remove the mc group, dec the refcnt to the real dev which was using the mc address.
The problem would never happened again.

A bug was introduced in NETDEV_CHANGE notifier sequence causing the
arp table to be sometimes spuriously cleared (including manual arp
entries marked permanent), upon network link carrier changes.
The changed argument for the notifier was applied only to a single
caller of NETDEV_CHANGE, missing among others netdev_state_change().
So upon net_carrier events induced by the network, which are
triggering a call to netdev_state_change(), arp_netdev_event() would
decide whether to clear or not arp cache based on random/junk stack
values (a kind of read buffer overflow).

In process_backlog the input_pkt_queue is only checked once for new
packets and quota is artificially reduced to reflect precisely the
number of packets on the input_pkt_queue so that the loop exits
appropriately.
This patches changes the behavior to be more straightforward and
less convoluted. Packets are processed until either the quota
is met or there are no more packets to process.
This patch seems to provide a small, but noticeable performance
improvement. The performance improvement is a result of staying
in the process_backlog loop longer which can reduce number of IPI's.

Some older router implementations still send Fragmentation Needed
errors with the Next-Hop MTU field set to zero. This is explicitly
described as an eventuality that hosts must deal with by the
standard (RFC 1191) since older standards specified that those
bits must be zero.
Linux had a generic (for all of IPv4) implementation of the algorithm
described in the RFC for searching a list of MTU plateaus for a good
value. Commit 46517008e1 ("ipv4: Kill ip_rt_frag_needed().")
removed this as part of the changes to remove the routing cache.
Subsequently any Fragmentation Needed packet with a zero Next-Hop
MTU has been discarded without being passed to the per-protocol
handlers or notifying userspace for raw sockets.
When there is a router which does not implement RFC 1191 on an
MTU limited path then this results in stalled connections since
large packets are discarded and the local protocols are not
notified so they never attempt to lower the pMTU.
One example I have seen is an OpenBSD router terminating IPSec
tunnels. It's worth pointing out that this case is distinct from
the BSD 4.2 bug which incorrectly calculated the Next-Hop MTU
since the commit in question dismissed that as a valid concern.
All of the per-protocols handlers implement the simple approach from
RFC 1191 of immediately falling back to the minimum value. Although
this is sub-optimal it is vastly preferable to connections hanging
indefinitely.
Remove the Next-Hop MTU != 0 check and allow such packets
to follow the normal path.
