Ilpo Järvinen d792c1006f tcp: provide more information on the tcp receive_queue bugs
The addition of rcv_nxt allows to discern whether the skb
was out of place or tp->copied. Also catch fancy combination
of flags if necessary (sadly we might miss the actual causer
flags as it might have already returned).

Btw, we perhaps would want to forward copied_seq in
somewhere or otherwise we might have some nice loop with
WARN stuff within but where to do that safely I don't
know at this stage until more is known (but it is not
made significantly worse by this patch).

Herbert Xu 23ca0c989e ipip: Fix handling of DF packets when pmtudisc is OFF
RFC 2003 requires the outer header to have DF set if DF is set
on the inner header, even when PMTU discovery is off for the
tunnel.  Our implementation does exactly that.

For this to work properly the IPIP gateway also needs to engate
in PMTU when the inner DF bit is set.  As otherwise the original
host would not be able to carry out its PMTU successfully since
part of the path is only visible to the gateway.

Unfortunately when the tunnel PMTU discovery setting is off, we
do not collect the necessary soft state, resulting in blackholes
when the original host tries to perform PMTU discovery.

This problem is not reproducible on the IPIP gateway itself as
the inner packet usually has skb->local_df set.  This is not
correctly cleared (an unrelated bug) when the packet passes
through the tunnel, which allows fragmentation to occur.  For
hosts behind the IPIP gateway it is readily visible with a simple
ping.

This patch fixes the problem by performing PMTU discovery for
all packets with the inner DF bit set, regardless of the PMTU
discovery setting on the tunnel itself.

Jozsef Kadlecsik f9dd09c7f7 netfilter: nf_nat: fix NAT issue in 2.6.30.4+
Vitezslav Samel discovered that since 2.6.30.4+ active FTP can not work
over NAT. The "cause" of the problem was a fix of unacknowledged data
detection with NAT (commit a3a9f79e36).
However, actually, that fix uncovered a long standing bug in TCP conntrack:
when NAT was enabled, we simply updated the max of the right edge of
the segments we have seen (td_end), by the offset NAT produced with
changing IP/port in the data. However, we did not update the other parameter
(td_maxend) which is affected by the NAT offset. Thus that could drift
away from the correct value and thus resulted breaking active FTP.

The patch below fixes the issue by *not* updating the conntrack parameters
from NAT, but instead taking into account the NAT offsets in conntrack in a
consistent way. (Updating from NAT would be more harder and expensive because
it'd need to re-calculate parameters we already calculated in conntrack.)

Neil Horman 55888dfb6b AF_RAW: Augment raw_send_hdrinc to expand skb to fit iphdr->ihl (v2)
Augment raw_send_hdrinc to correct for incorrect ip header length values

A series of oopses was reported to me recently.  Apparently when using AF_RAW
sockets to send data to peers that were reachable via ipsec encapsulation,
people could panic or BUG halt their systems.

I've tracked the problem down to user space sending an invalid ip header over an
AF_RAW socket with IP_HDRINCL set to 1.

Basically what happens is that userspace sends down an ip frame that includes
only the header (no data), but sets the ip header ihl value to a large number,
one that is larger than the total amount of data passed to the sendmsg call.  In
raw_send_hdrincl, we allocate an skb based on the size of the data in the msghdr
that was passed in, but assume the data is all valid.  Later during ipsec
encapsulation, xfrm4_tranport_output moves the entire frame back in the skbuff
to provide headroom for the ipsec headers.  During this operation, the
skb->transport_header is repointed to a spot computed by
skb->network_header + the ip header length (ihl).  Since so little data was
passed in relative to the value of ihl provided by the raw socket, we point
transport header to an unknown location, resulting in various crashes.

This fix for this is pretty straightforward, simply validate the value of of
iph->ihl when sending over a raw socket.  If (iph->ihl*4U) > user data buffer
size, drop the frame and return -EINVAL.  I just confirmed this fixes the
reported crashes.

Julian Anastasov d1b99ba41d tcp: accept socket after TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT period
Willy Tarreau and many other folks in recent years
were concerned what happens when the TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT period
expires for clients which sent ACK packet. They prefer clients
that actively resend ACK on our SYN-ACK retransmissions to be
converted from open requests to sockets and queued to the
listener for accepting after the deferring period is finished.
Then application server can decide to wait longer for data
or to properly terminate the connection with FIN if read()
returns EAGAIN which is an indication for accepting after
the deferring period. This change still can have side effects
for applications that expect always to see data on the accepted
socket. Others can be prepared to work in both modes (with or
without TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT period) and their data processing can
ignore the read=EAGAIN notification and to allocate resources for
clients which proved to have no data to send during the deferring
period. OTOH, servers that use TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT=1 as flag (not
as a timeout) to wait for data will notice clients that didn't
send data for 3 seconds but that still resend ACKs.
Thanks to Willy Tarreau for the initial idea and to
Eric Dumazet for the review and testing the change.

Willy Tarreau 6d01a026b7 tcp: fix tcp_defer_accept to consider the timeout
I was trying to use TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT and noticed that if the
client does not talk, the connection is never accepted and
remains in SYN_RECV state until the retransmits expire, where
it finally is deleted. This is bad when some firewall such as
netfilter sits between the client and the server because the
firewall sees the connection in ESTABLISHED state while the
server will finally silently drop it without sending an RST.

This behaviour contradicts the man page which says it should
wait only for some time :

       TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT (since Linux 2.4)
          Allows a listener to be awakened only when data arrives
          on the socket.  Takes an integer value  (seconds), this
          can  bound  the  maximum  number  of attempts TCP will
          make to complete the connection. This option should not
          be used in code intended to be portable.

Also, looking at ipv4/tcp.c, a retransmit counter is correctly
computed :

        case TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT:
                icsk->icsk_accept_queue.rskq_defer_accept = 0;
                if (val > 0) {
                        /* Translate value in seconds to number of
                         * retransmits */
                        while (icsk->icsk_accept_queue.rskq_defer_accept < 32 &&
                               val > ((TCP_TIMEOUT_INIT / HZ) <<
                                       icsk->icsk_accept_queue.rskq_defer_accept))
                                icsk->icsk_accept_queue.rskq_defer_accept++;
                        icsk->icsk_accept_queue.rskq_defer_accept++;
                }
                break;

==> rskq_defer_accept is used as a counter of retransmits.

But in tcp_minisocks.c, this counter is only checked. And in
fact, I have found no location which updates it. So I think
that what was intended was to decrease it in tcp_minisocks
whenever it is checked, which the trivial patch below does.

Eric Dumazet 42324c6270 net: splice() from tcp to pipe should take into account O_NONBLOCK
tcp_splice_read() doesnt take into account socket's O_NONBLOCK flag

Before this patch :

splice(socket,0,pipe,0,128*1024,SPLICE_F_MOVE);
causes a random endless block (if pipe is full) and
splice(socket,0,pipe,0,128*1024,SPLICE_F_MOVE | SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK);
will return 0 immediately if the TCP buffer is empty.

User application has no way to instruct splice() that socket should be in blocking mode
but pipe in nonblock more.

Many projects cannot use splice(tcp -> pipe) because of this flaw.

http://git.samba.org/?p=samba.git;a=history;f=source3/lib/recvfile.c;h=ea0159642137390a0f7e57a123684e6e63e47581;hb=HEAD
http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0807.2/0687.html

Linus introduced  SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK in commit 29e350944f
(splice: add SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK flag )

  It doesn't make the splice itself necessarily nonblocking (because the
  actual file descriptors that are spliced from/to may block unless they
  have the O_NONBLOCK flag set), but it makes the splice pipe operations
  nonblocking.

Linus intention was clear : let SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK control the splice pipe mode only

This patch instruct tcp_splice_read() to use the underlying file O_NONBLOCK
flag, as other socket operations do.

Users will then call :

splice(socket,0,pipe,0,128*1024,SPLICE_F_MOVE | SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK );

to block on data coming from socket (if file is in blocking mode),
and not block on pipe output (to avoid deadlock)

Ori Finkelman 89e95a613c IPv4 TCP fails to send window scale option when window scale is zero
Acknowledge TCP window scale support by inserting the proper option in SYN/ACK
and SYN headers even if our window scale is zero.

This fixes the following observed behavior:

1. Client sends a SYN with TCP window scaling option and non zero window scale
value to a Linux box.
2. Linux box notes large receive window from client.
3. Linux decides on a zero value of window scale for its part.
4. Due to compare against requested window scale size option, Linux does not to
 send windows scale TCP option header on SYN/ACK at all.

With the following result:

Client box thinks TCP window scaling is not supported, since SYN/ACK had no
TCP window scale option, while Linux thinks that TCP window scaling is
supported (and scale might be non zero), since SYN had  TCP window scale
option and we have a mismatched idea between the client and server
regarding window sizes.

Probably it also fixes up the following bug (not observed in practice):

1. Linux box opens TCP connection to some server.
2. Linux decides on zero value of window scale.
3. Due to compare against computed window scale size option, Linux does
not to set windows scale TCP  option header on SYN.

With the expected result that the server OS does not use window scale option
due to not receiving such an option in the SYN headers, leading to suboptimal
performance.

Robert Varga 657e9649e7 tcp: fix CONFIG_TCP_MD5SIG + CONFIG_PREEMPT timer BUG()
I have recently came across a preemption imbalance detected by:

<4>huh, entered ffffffff80644630 with preempt_count 00000102, exited with 00000101?
<0>------------[ cut here ]------------
<2>kernel BUG at /usr/src/linux/kernel/timer.c:664!
<0>invalid opcode: 0000 [1] PREEMPT SMP

with ffffffff80644630 being inet_twdr_hangman().

This appeared after I enabled CONFIG_TCP_MD5SIG and played with it a
bit, so I looked at what might have caused it.

One thing that struck me as strange is tcp_twsk_destructor(), as it
calls tcp_put_md5sig_pool() -- which entails a put_cpu(), causing the
detected imbalance. Found on 2.6.23.9, but 2.6.31 is affected as well,
as far as I can tell.

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.

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 !

Damian Lukowski 6fa12c8503 Revert Backoff [v3]: Calculate TCP's connection close threshold as a time value.
RFC 1122 specifies two threshold values R1 and R2 for connection timeouts,
which may represent a number of allowed retransmissions or a timeout value.
Currently linux uses sysctl_tcp_retries{1,2} to specify the thresholds
in number of allowed retransmissions.

For any desired threshold R2 (by means of time) one can specify tcp_retries2
(by means of number of retransmissions) such that TCP will not time out
earlier than R2. This is the case, because the RTO schedule follows a fixed
pattern, namely exponential backoff.

However, the RTO behaviour is not predictable any more if RTO backoffs can be
reverted, as it is the case in the draft
"Make TCP more Robust to Long Connectivity Disruptions"
(http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-zimmermann-tcp-lcd).

In the worst case TCP would time out a connection after 3.2 seconds, if the
initial RTO equaled MIN_RTO and each backoff has been reverted.

This patch introduces a function retransmits_timed_out(N),
which calculates the timeout of a TCP connection, assuming an initial
RTO of MIN_RTO and N unsuccessful, exponentially backed-off retransmissions.

Whenever timeout decisions are made by comparing the retransmission counter
to some value N, this function can be used, instead.

The meaning of tcp_retries2 will be changed, as many more RTO retransmissions
can occur than the value indicates. However, it yields a timeout which is
similar to the one of an unpatched, exponentially backing off TCP in the same
scenario. As no application could rely on an RTO greater than MIN_RTO, there
should be no risk of a regression.

Damian Lukowski f1ecd5d9e7 Revert Backoff [v3]: Revert RTO on ICMP destination unreachable
Here, an ICMP host/network unreachable message, whose payload fits to
TCP's SND.UNA, is taken as an indication that the RTO retransmission has
not been lost due to congestion, but because of a route failure
somewhere along the path.
With true congestion, a router won't trigger such a message and the
patched TCP will operate as standard TCP.

This patch reverts one RTO backoff, if an ICMP host/network unreachable
message, whose payload fits to TCP's SND.UNA, arrives.
Based on the new RTO, the retransmission timer is reset to reflect the
remaining time, or - if the revert clocked out the timer - a retransmission
is sent out immediately.
Backoffs are only reverted, if TCP is in RTO loss recovery, i.e. if
there have been retransmissions and reversible backoffs, already.

Changes from v2:
1) Renaming of skb in tcp_v4_err() moved to another patch.
2) Reintroduced tcp_bound_rto() and __tcp_set_rto().
3) Fixed code comments.

Octavian Purdila 80a1096bac tcp: fix premature termination of FIN_WAIT2 time-wait sockets
There is a race condition in the time-wait sockets code that can lead
to premature termination of FIN_WAIT2 and, subsequently, to RST
generation when the FIN,ACK from the peer finally arrives:

0.238625 http > 30755 [RST] Seq=188 Win=0 Len=0

Say twdr->slot = 1 and we are running inet_twdr_hangman and in this
instance inet_twdr_do_twkill_work returns 1. At that point we will
mark slot 1 and schedule inet_twdr_twkill_work. We will also make
twdr->slot = 2.

Next, a connection is closed and tcp_time_wait(TCP_FIN_WAIT2, timeo)
is called which will create a new FIN_WAIT2 time-wait socket and will
place it in the last to be reached slot, i.e. twdr->slot = 1.

At this point say inet_twdr_twkill_work will run which will start
destroying the time-wait sockets in slot 1, including the just added
TCP_FIN_WAIT2 one.

To avoid this issue we increment the slot only if all entries in the
slot have been purged.

This change may delay the slots cleanup by a time-wait death row
period but only if the worker thread didn't had the time to run/purge
the current slot in the next period (6 seconds with default sysctl
settings). However, on such a busy system even without this change we
would probably see delays...

Jens Låås 80b71b80df fib_trie: resize rework
Here is rework and cleanup of the resize function.

Some bugs we had. We were using ->parent when we should use 
node_parent(). Also we used ->parent which is not assigned by
inflate in inflate loop.

Also a fix to set thresholds to power 2 to fit halve 
and double strategy.

max_resize is renamed to max_work which better indicates
it's function.

Reaching max_work is not an error, so warning is removed. 
max_work only limits amount of work done per resize.
(limits CPU-usage, outstanding memory etc).

The clean-up makes it relatively easy to add fixed sized 
root-nodes if we would like to decrease the memory pressure
on routers with large routing tables and dynamic routing.
If we'll need that...

Its been tested with 280k routes.

Work done together with Robert Olsson.
