Eric Dumazet noticed that all no-nonexthop or no-gateway routes which
are already marked DST_HOST (e.g. input routes routes) will always be
invalidated during sk_dst_check. Thus per-socket dst caching absolutely
had no effect and early demuxing had no effect.
Thus this patch removes rt6i_genid: fn_sernum already gets modified during
add operations, so we only must ensure we mutate fn_sernum during ipv6
address remove operations. This is a fairly cost extensive operations,
but address removal should not happen that often. Also our mtu update
functions do the same and we heard no complains so far. xfrm policy
changes also cause a call into fib6_flush_trees. Also plug a hole in
rt6_info (no cacheline changes).
I verified via tracing that this change has effect.

pull request (net): ipsec 2014-09-22
We generate a blackhole or queueing route if a packet
matches an IPsec policy but a state can't be resolved.
Here we assume that dst_output() is called to kill
these packets. Unfortunately this assumption is not
true in all cases, so it is possible that these packets
leave the system without the necessary transformations.
This pull request contains two patches to fix this issue:
1) Fix for blackhole routed packets.
2) Fix for queue routed packets.

The timestamping API has separate bits for generating and reporting
timestamps. A software timestamp should only be reported for a packet
when the packet has the relevant generation flag (SKBTX_..) set
and the socket has reporting bit SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE set.
The second check was accidentally removed. Reinstitute the original
behavior.
Tested:
Without this patch, Documentation/networking/txtimestamp reports
timestamps regardless of whether SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE is set.
After the patch, it only reports them when the flag is set.

Since SCTP day 1, that is, 19b55a2af145 ("Initial commit") from lksctp
tree, the official <netinet/sctp.h> header carries a copy of enum
sctp_sstat_state that looks like (compared to the current in-kernel
enumeration):
User definition: Kernel definition:
enum sctp_sstat_state { typedef enum {
SCTP_EMPTY = 0, <removed>
SCTP_CLOSED = 1, SCTP_STATE_CLOSED = 0,
SCTP_COOKIE_WAIT = 2, SCTP_STATE_COOKIE_WAIT = 1,
SCTP_COOKIE_ECHOED = 3, SCTP_STATE_COOKIE_ECHOED = 2,
SCTP_ESTABLISHED = 4, SCTP_STATE_ESTABLISHED = 3,
SCTP_SHUTDOWN_PENDING = 5, SCTP_STATE_SHUTDOWN_PENDING = 4,
SCTP_SHUTDOWN_SENT = 6, SCTP_STATE_SHUTDOWN_SENT = 5,
SCTP_SHUTDOWN_RECEIVED = 7, SCTP_STATE_SHUTDOWN_RECEIVED = 6,
SCTP_SHUTDOWN_ACK_SENT = 8, SCTP_STATE_SHUTDOWN_ACK_SENT = 7,
}; } sctp_state_t;
This header was later on also placed into the uapi, so that user space
programs can compile without having <netinet/sctp.h>, but the shipped
with <linux/sctp.h> instead.
While RFC6458 under 8.2.1.Association Status (SCTP_STATUS) says that
sstat_state can range from SCTP_CLOSED to SCTP_SHUTDOWN_ACK_SENT, we
nevertheless have a what it appears to be dummy SCTP_EMPTY state from
the very early days.
While it seems to do just nothing, commit 0b8f9e25b0 ("sctp: remove
completely unsed EMPTY state") did the right thing and removed this dead
code. That however, causes an off-by-one when the user asks the SCTP
stack via SCTP_STATUS API and checks for the current socket state thus
yielding possibly undefined behaviour in applications as they expect
the kernel to tell the right thing.
The enumeration had to be changed however as based on the current socket
state, we access a function pointer lookup-table through this. Therefore,
I think the best way to deal with this is just to add a helper function
sctp_assoc_to_state() to encapsulate the off-by-one quirk.

Recently the LE passive scanning and auto-connections feature was
introduced. It uses the hci_connect_le() API which returns a hci_conn
along with a reference count to that object. All previous users would
tie this returned reference to some existing object, such as an L2CAP
channel, and there'd be no leaked references this way. For
auto-connections however the reference was returned but not stored
anywhere, leaving established connections with one higher reference
count than they should have.
Instead of playing special tricks with hci_conn_hold/drop this patch
associates the returned reference from hci_connect_le() with the object
that in practice does own this reference, i.e. the hci_conn_params
struct that caused us to initiate a connection in the first place. Once
the connection is established or fails to establish this reference is
removed appropriately.
One extra thing needed is to call hci_pend_le_actions_clear() before
calling hci_conn_hash_flush() so that the reference is cleared before
the hci_conn objects are fully removed.

tcp_tw_recycle heavily relies on tcp timestamps to build a per-host
ordering of incoming connections and teardowns without the need to
hold state on a specific quadruple for TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN, but only for
the last measured RTO. To do so, we keep the last seen timestamp in a
per-host indexed data structure and verify if the incoming timestamp
in a connection request is strictly greater than the saved one during
last connection teardown. Thus we can verify later on that no old data
packets will be accepted by the new connection.
During moving a socket to time-wait state we already verify if timestamps
where seen on a connection. Only if that was the case we let the
time-wait socket expire after the RTO, otherwise normal TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN
will be used. But we don't verify this on incoming SYN packets. If a
connection teardown was less than TCP_PAWS_MSL seconds in the past we
cannot guarantee to not accept data packets from an old connection if
no timestamps are present. We should drop this SYN packet. This patch
closes this loophole.
Please note, this patch does not make tcp_tw_recycle in any way more
usable but only adds another safety check:
Sporadic drops of SYN packets because of reordering in the network or
in the socket backlog queues can happen. Users behing NAT trying to
connect to a tcp_tw_recycle enabled server can get caught in blackholes
and their connection requests may regullary get dropped because hosts
behind an address translator don't have synchronized tcp timestamp clocks.
tcp_tw_recycle cannot work if peers don't have tcp timestamps enabled.
In general, use of tcp_tw_recycle is disadvised.

Two ipv6_table_template[] additions overlap, so the index
of the ipv6_table[x] assignments needed to be adjusted.
In the drivers/net/Makefile case, we've gotten rid of the
garbage whereby we had to list every single USB networking
driver in the top-level Makefile, there is just one
"USB_NETWORKING" that guards everything.

Datagrams timestamped on transmission can coexist in the kernel stack
and be reordered in packet scheduling. When reading looped datagrams
from the socket error queue it is not always possible to unique
correlate looped data with original send() call (for application
level retransmits). Even if possible, it may be expensive and complex,
requiring packet inspection.
Introduce a data-independent ID mechanism to associate timestamps with
send calls. Pass an ID alongside the timestamp in field ee_data of
sock_extended_err.
The ID is a simple 32 bit unsigned int that is associated with the
socket and incremented on each send() call for which software tx
timestamp generation is enabled.
The feature is enabled only if SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID is set, to
avoid changing ee_data for existing applications that expect it 0.
The counter is reset each time the flag is reenabled. Reenabling
does not change the ID of already submitted data. It is possible
to receive out of order IDs if the timestamp stream is not quiesced
first.

sk_flags is reaching its limit. New timestamping options will not fit.
Move all of them into a new field sk->sk_tsflags.
Added benefit is that this removes boilerplate code to convert between
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_.. and SOCK_TIMESTAMPING_.. in getsockopt/setsockopt.
SOCK_TIMESTAMPING_RX_SOFTWARE is also used to toggle the receive
timestamp logic (netstamp_needed). That can be simplified and this
last key removed, but will leave that for a separate patch.

The u16 in sock can be moved into a 16-bit hole below sk_gso_max_segs,
though that scatters tstamp fields throughout the struct.
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Applications that request kernel tx timestamps with SO_TIMESTAMPING
read timestamps as recvmsg() ancillary data. The response is defined
implicitly as timespec[3].
1) define struct scm_timestamping explicitly and
2) add support for new tstamp types. On tx, scm_timestamping always
accompanies a sock_extended_err. Define previously unused field
ee_info to signal the type of ts[0]. Introduce SCM_TSTAMP_SND to
define the existing behavior.
The reception path is not modified. On rx, no struct similar to
sock_extended_err is passed along with SCM_TIMESTAMPING.

This commit reduces spurious retransmits due to apparent SACK reneging
by only reacting to SACK reneging that persists for a short delay.
When a sequence space hole at snd_una is filled, some TCP receivers
send a series of ACKs as they apparently scan their out-of-order queue
and cumulatively ACK all the packets that have now been consecutiveyly
received. This is essentially misbehavior B in "Misbehaviors in TCP
SACK generation" ACM SIGCOMM Computer Communication Review, April
2011, so we suspect that this is from several common OSes (Windows
2000, Windows Server 2003, Windows XP). However, this issue has also
been seen in other cases, e.g. the netdev thread "TCP being hoodwinked
into spurious retransmissions by lack of timestamps?" from March 2014,
where the receiver was thought to be a BSD box.
Since snd_una would temporarily be adjacent to a previously SACKed
range in these scenarios, this receiver behavior triggered the Linux
SACK reneging code path in the sender. This led the sender to clear
the SACK scoreboard, enter CA_Loss, and spuriously retransmit
(potentially) every packet from the entire write queue at line rate
just a few milliseconds before the ACK for each packet arrives at the
sender.
To avoid such situations, now when a sender sees apparent reneging it
does not yet retransmit, but rather adjusts the RTO timer to give the
receiver a little time (max(RTT/2, 10ms)) to send us some more ACKs
that will restore sanity to the SACK scoreboard. If the reneging
persists until this RTO then, as before, we clear the SACK scoreboard
and enter CA_Loss.
A 10ms delay tolerates a receiver sending such a stream of ACKs at
56Kbit/sec. And to allow for receivers with slower or more congested
paths, we wait for at least RTT/2.
We validated the resulting max(RTT/2, 10ms) delay formula with a mix
of North American and South American Google web server traffic, and
found that for ACKs displaying transient reneging:
(1) 90% of inter-ACK delays were less than 10ms
(2) 99% of inter-ACK delays were less than RTT/2
In tests on Google web servers this commit reduced reneging events by
75%-90% (as measured by the TcpExtTCPSACKReneging counter), without
any measurable impact on latency for user HTTP and SPDY requests.

====================
Please pull this last(?) batch of wireless change intended for the
3.17 stream...
For the NFC bits, Samuel says:
"This is a rather quiet one, we have:
- A new driver from ST Microelectronics for their NCI ST21NFCB,
including device tree support.
- p2p support for the ST21NFCA driver
- A few fixes an enhancements for the NFC digital laye"
For the Atheros bits, Kalle says:
"Michal and Janusz did some important RX aggregation fixes, basically we
were missing RX reordering altogether. The 10.1 firmware doesn't support
Ad-Hoc mode and Michal fixed ath10k so that it doesn't advertise Ad-Hoc
support with that firmware. Also he implemented a workaround for a KVM
issue."
For the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo and Johan say:
"To quote Gustavo from his previous request:
'Some last minute fixes for -next. We have a fix for a use after free in
RFCOMM, another fix to an issue with ADV_DIRECT_IND and one for ADV_IND with
auto-connection handling. Last, we added support for reading the codec and
MWS setting for controllers that support these features.'
Additionally there are fixes to LE scanning, an update to conform to the 4.1
core specification as well as fixes for tracking the page scan state. All
of these fixes are important for 3.17."
And,
"We've got:
- 6lowpan fixes/cleanups
- A couple crash fixes, one for the Marvell HCI driver and another in LE SMP.
- Fix for an incorrect connected state check
- Fix for the bondable requirement during pairing (an issue which had
crept in because of using "pairable" when in fact the actual meaning
was "bondable" (these have different meanings in Bluetooth)"
Along with those are some late-breaking hardware support patches in
brcmfmac and b43 as well as a stray ath9k patch.

Historically the NetLabel LSM secattr catmap functions and data
structures have had very long names which makes a mess of the NetLabel
code and anyone who uses NetLabel. This patch renames the catmap
functions and structures from "*_secattr_catmap_*" to just "*_catmap_*"
which improves things greatly.
There are no substantial code or logic changes in this patch.

The NetLabel secattr catmap functions, and the SELinux import/export
glue routines, were broken in many horrible ways and the SELinux glue
code fiddled with the NetLabel catmap structures in ways that we
probably shouldn't allow. At some point this "worked", but that was
likely due to a bit of dumb luck and sub-par testing (both inflicted
by yours truly). This patch corrects these problems by basically
gutting the code in favor of something less obtuse and restoring the
NetLabel abstractions in the SELinux catmap glue code.
Everything is working now, and if it decides to break itself in the
future this code will be much easier to debug than the code it
replaces.
One noteworthy side effect of the changes is that it is no longer
necessary to allocate a NetLabel catmap before calling one of the
NetLabel APIs to set a bit in the catmap. NetLabel will automatically
allocate the catmap nodes when needed, resulting in less allocations
when the lowest bit is greater than 255 and less code in the LSMs.

The NetLabel category (catmap) functions have a problem in that they
assume categories will be set in an increasing manner, e.g. the next
category set will always be larger than the last. Unfortunately, this
is not a valid assumption and could result in problems when attempting
to set categories less than the startbit in the lowest catmap node.
In some cases kernel panics and other nasties can result.
This patch corrects the problem by checking for this and allocating a
new catmap node instance and placing it at the front of the list.

The SCTP socket extensions API document describes the v4mapping option as
follows:
8.1.15. Set/Clear IPv4 Mapped Addresses (SCTP_I_WANT_MAPPED_V4_ADDR)
This socket option is a Boolean flag which turns on or off the
mapping of IPv4 addresses. If this option is turned on, then IPv4
addresses will be mapped to V6 representation. If this option is
turned off, then no mapping will be done of V4 addresses and a user
will receive both PF_INET6 and PF_INET type addresses on the socket.
See [RFC3542] for more details on mapped V6 addresses.
This description isn't really in line with what the code does though.
Introduce addr_to_user (renamed addr_v4map), which should be called
before any sockaddr is passed back to user space. The new function
places the sockaddr into the correct format depending on the
SCTP_I_WANT_MAPPED_V4_ADDR option.
Audit all places that touched v4mapped and either sanely construct
a v4 or v6 address then call addr_to_user, or drop the
unnecessary v4mapped check entirely.
Audit all places that call addr_to_user and verify they are on a sycall
return path.
Add a custom getname that formats the address properly.
Several bugs are addressed:
- SCTP_I_WANT_MAPPED_V4_ADDR=0 often returned garbage for
addresses to user space
- The addr_len returned from recvmsg was not correct when
returning AF_INET on a v6 socket
- flowlabel and scope_id were not zerod when promoting
a v4 to v6
- Some syscalls like bind and connect behaved differently
depending on v4mapped
Tested bind, getpeername, getsockname, connect, and recvmsg for proper
behaviour in v4mapped = 1 and 0 cases.

Netfilter updates for net-next
The following patchset contains netfilter updates for net-next, they are:
1) Add the reject expression for the nf_tables bridge family, this
allows us to send explicit reject (TCP RST / ICMP dest unrech) to
the packets matching a rule.
2) Simplify and consolidate the nf_tables set dumping logic. This uses
netlink control->data to filter out depending on the request.
3) Perform garbage collection in xt_hashlimit using a workqueue instead
of a timer, which is problematic when many entries are in place in
the tables, from Eric Dumazet.
4) Remove leftover code from the removed ulog target support, from
Paul Bolle.
5) Dump unmodified flags in the netfilter packet accounting when resetting
counters, so userspace knows that a counter was in overquota situation,
from Alexey Perevalov.
6) Fix wrong usage of the bitwise functions in nfnetlink_acct, also from
Alexey.
7) Fix a crash when adding new set element with an empty NFTA_SET_ELEM_LIST
attribute.
This patchset also includes a couple of cleanups for xt_LED from
Duan Jiong and for nf_conntrack_ipv4 (using coccinelle) from
Himangi Saraogi.

Ipv4 tunnels created with "local any remote $ip" didn't work properly since
7d442fab0 (ipv4: Cache dst in tunnels). 99% of packets sent via those tunnels
had src addr = 0.0.0.0. That was because only dst_entry was cached, although
fl4.saddr has to be cached too. Every time ip_tunnel_xmit used cached dst_entry
(tunnel_rtable_get returned non-NULL), fl4.saddr was initialized with
tnl_params->saddr (= 0 in our case), and wasn't changed until iptunnel_xmit().
This patch adds saddr to ip_tunnel->dst_cache, fixing this issue.
