fc752f1f43 ping: Fix race in free in receive path
An exception is seen in ICMP ping receive path where the skb
destructor sock_rfree() tries to access a freed socket. This happens
because ping_rcv() releases socket reference with sock_put() and this
internally frees up the socket. Later icmp_rcv() will try to free the
skb and as part of this, skb destructor is called and which leads
to a kernel panic as the socket is freed already in ping_rcv().

Fix this incorrect free by cloning this skb and processing this cloned
skb instead.

86f3cddbc3 udp_diag: Fix socket skipping within chain
While working on rhashtable walking I noticed that the UDP diag
dumping code is buggy.  In particular, the socket skipping within
a chain never happens, even though we record the number of sockets
that should be skipped.

As this code was supposedly copied from TCP, this patch does what
TCP does and resets num before we walk a chain.

df4d92549f ipv4: try to cache dst_entries which would cause a redirect
Not caching dst_entries which cause redirects could be exploited by hosts
on the same subnet, causing a severe DoS attack. This effect aggravated
since commit f886497212 ("ipv4: fix dst race in sk_dst_get()").

Lookups causing redirects will be allocated with DST_NOCACHE set which
will force dst_release to free them via RCU.  Unfortunately waiting for
RCU grace period just takes too long, we can end up with >1M dst_entries
waiting to be released and the system will run OOM. rcuos threads cannot
catch up under high softirq load.

Attaching the flag to emit a redirect later on to the specific skb allows
us to cache those dst_entries thus reducing the pressure on allocation
and deallocation.

This issue was discovered by Marcelo Leitner.

f812116b17 ip: zero sockaddr returned on error queue
The sockaddr is returned in IP(V6)_RECVERR as part of errhdr. That
structure is defined and allocated on the stack as

    struct {
            struct sock_extended_err ee;
            struct sockaddr_in(6)    offender;
    } errhdr;

The second part is only initialized for certain SO_EE_ORIGIN values.
Always initialize it completely.

An MTU exceeded error on a SOCK_RAW/IPPROTO_RAW is one example that
would return uninitialized bytes.

netfilter/ipvs fixes for net

The following patchset contains netfilter/ipvs fixes, they are:

1) Small fix for the FTP helper in IPVS, a diff variable may be left
   unset when CONFIG_IP_VS_IPV6 is set. Patch from Dan Carpenter.

2) Fix nf_tables port NAT in little endian archs, patch from leroy
   christophe.

3) Fix race condition between conntrack confirmation and flush from
   userspace. This is the second reincarnation to resolve this problem.

4) Make sure inner messages in the batch come with the nfnetlink header.

5) Relax strict check from nfnetlink_bind() that may break old userspace
   applications using all 1s group mask.

6) Schedule removal of chains once no sets and rules refer to them in
   the new nf_tables ruleset flush command. Reported by Asbjoern Sloth
   Toennesen.

Note that this batch comes later than usual because of the short
winter holidays.

843925f33f tcp: Do not apply TSO segment limit to non-TSO packets
Thomas Jarosch reported IPsec TCP stalls when a PMTU event occurs.

In fact the problem was completely unrelated to IPsec.  The bug is
also reproducible if you just disable TSO/GSO.

The problem is that when the MSS goes down, existing queued packet
on the TX queue that have not been transmitted yet all look like
TSO packets and get treated as such.

This then triggers a bug where tcp_mss_split_point tells us to
generate a zero-sized packet on the TX queue.  Once that happens
we're screwed because the zero-sized packet can never be removed
by ACKs.

997e068ebc openvswitch: Fix vport_send double free
Today vport-send has complex error handling because it involves

This can be simplified by delegating responsibility of freeing
skb to the vport implementation for all cases. So that
vport-send needs just update stats.

12069401d8 geneve: Fix races between socket add and release.
Currently, searching for a socket to add a reference to is not
synchronized with deletion of sockets. This can result in use
after free if there is another operation that is removing a
socket at the same time. Solving this requires both holding the
appropriate lock and checking the refcount to ensure that it
has not already hit zero.

Inspired by a related (but not exactly the same) issue in the
VXLAN driver.

8a0033a947 gre: fix the inner mac header in nbma tunnel xmit path
The NBMA GRE tunnels temporarily push GRE header that contain the
per-packet NBMA destination on the skb via header ops early in xmit
path. It is the later pulled before the real GRE header is constructed.

The inner mac was thus set differently in nbma case: the GRE header
has been pushed by neighbor layer, and mac header points to beginning
of the temporary gre header (set by dev_queue_xmit).

Now that the offloads expect mac header to point to the gre payload,
fix the xmit patch to:
 - pull first the temporary gre header away
 - and reset mac header to point to gre payload

This fixes tso to work again with nbma tunnels.

e962f30297 fib_trie: Fix trie balancing issue if new node pushes down existing node
This patch addresses an issue with the level compression of the fib_trie.
Specifically in the case of adding a new leaf that triggers a new node to
be added that takes the place of the old node.  The result is a trie where
the 1 child tnode is on one side and one leaf is on the other which gives
you a very deep trie.  Below is the script I used to generate a trie on
dummy0 with a 10.X.X.X family of addresses.

  ip link add type dummy
  ipval=184549374
  bit=2
  for i in `seq 1 23`
  do
    ifconfig dummy0:$bit $ipval/8
    ipval=`expr $ipval - $bit`
    bit=`expr $bit \* 2`
  done
  cat /proc/net/fib_triestat

Running the script before the patch:

	Local:
		Aver depth:     10.82
		Max depth:      23
		Leaves:         29
		Prefixes:       30
		Internal nodes: 27
		  1: 26  2: 1
		Pointers: 56
	Null ptrs: 1
	Total size: 5  kB

After applying the patch and repeating:

	Local:
		Aver depth:     4.72
		Max depth:      9
		Leaves:         29
		Prefixes:       30
		Internal nodes: 12
		  1: 3  2: 2  3: 7
		Pointers: 70
	Null ptrs: 30
	Total size: 4  kB

What this fix does is start the rebalance at the newly created tnode
instead of at the parent tnode.  This way if there is a gap between the
parent and the new node it doesn't prevent the new tnode from being
coalesced with any pre-existing nodes that may have been pushed into one
of the new nodes child branches.

3e32cb2e0a mm: memcontrol: lockless page counters
Memory is internally accounted in bytes, using spinlock-protected 64-bit
counters, even though the smallest accounting delta is a page.  The
counter interface is also convoluted and does too many things.

Introduce a new lockless word-sized page counter API, then change all
memory accounting over to it.  The translation from and to bytes then only
happens when interfacing with userspace.

The removed locking overhead is noticable when scaling beyond the per-cpu
charge caches - on a 4-socket machine with 144-threads, the following test
shows the performance differences of 288 memcgs concurrently running a
page fault benchmark:

On top of improved scalability, this also gets rid of the icky long long
types in the very heart of memcg, which is great for 32 bit and also makes
the code a lot more readable.

Notable differences between the old and new API:

- res_counter_charge() and res_counter_charge_nofail() become
  page_counter_try_charge() and page_counter_charge() resp. to match
  the more common kernel naming scheme of try_do()/do()

- res_counter_uncharge_until() is only ever used to cancel a local
  counter and never to uncharge bigger segments of a hierarchy, so
  it's replaced by the simpler page_counter_cancel()

- res_counter_set_limit() is replaced by page_counter_limit(), which
  expects its callers to serialize against themselves

- res_counter_memparse_write_strategy() is replaced by
  page_counter_limit(), which rounds down to the nearest page size -
  rather than up.  This is more reasonable for explicitely requested
  hard upper limits.

- to keep charging light-weight, page_counter_try_charge() charges
  speculatively, only to roll back if the result exceeds the limit.
  Because of this, a failing bigger charge can temporarily lock out
  smaller charges that would otherwise succeed.  The error is bounded
  to the difference between the smallest and the biggest possible
  charge size, so for memcg, this means that a failing THP charge can
  send base page charges into reclaim upto 2MB (4MB) before the limit
  would have been reached.  This should be acceptable.

cbfe0de303 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull VFS changes from Al Viro:
 "First pile out of several (there _definitely_ will be more).  Stuff in
  this one:

   - unification of d_splice_alias()/d_materialize_unique()

   - iov_iter rewrite

   - killing a bunch of ->f_path.dentry users (and f_dentry macro).

     Getting that completed will make life much simpler for
     unionmount/overlayfs, since then we'll be able to limit the places
     sensitive to file _dentry_ to reasonably few.  Which allows to have
     file_inode(file) pointing to inode in a covered layer, with dentry
     pointing to (negative) dentry in union one.

     Still not complete, but much closer now.

   - crapectomy in lustre (dead code removal, mostly)

   - "let's make seq_printf return nothing" preparations

   - assorted cleanups and fixes

  There _definitely_ will be more piles"

605ad7f184 tcp: refine TSO autosizing
Commit 95bd09eb27 ("tcp: TSO packets automatic sizing") tried to
control TSO size, but did this at the wrong place (sendmsg() time)

At sendmsg() time, we might have a pessimistic view of flow rate,
and we end up building very small skbs (with 2 MSS per skb).

This is bad because :

 - It sends small TSO packets even in Slow Start where rate quickly
   increases.
 - It tends to make socket write queue very big, increasing tcp_ack()
   processing time, but also increasing memory needs, not necessarily
   accounted for, as fast clones overhead is currently ignored.
 - Lower GRO efficiency and more ACK packets.

Servers with a lot of small lived connections suffer from this.

Lets instead fill skbs as much as possible (64KB of payload), but split
them at xmit time, when we have a precise idea of the flow rate.
skb split is actually quite efficient.

Patch looks bigger than necessary, because TCP Small Queue decision now
has to take place after the eventual split.

As Neal suggested, introduce a new tcp_tso_autosize() helper, so that
tcp_tso_should_defer() can be synchronized on same goal.

Rename tp->xmit_size_goal_segs to tp->gso_segs, as this variable
contains number of mss that we can put in GSO packet, and is not
related to the autosizing goal anymore.

42eef7a0bb tcp_cubic: refine Hystart delay threshold
In commit 2b4636a5f8 ("tcp_cubic: make the delay threshold of HyStart
less sensitive"), HYSTART_DELAY_MIN was changed to 4 ms.

The remaining problem is that using delay_min + (delay_min/16) as the
threshold is too sensitive.

6.25 % of variation is too small for rtt above 60 ms, which are not
uncommon.

Lets use 12.5 % instead (delay_min + (delay_min/8))

 80 ms RTT between peers, FQ/pacing packet scheduler on sender.

nstat >/dev/null

   netperf -H remote -- -k THROUGHPUT | grep THROUGHPUT

6e3a8a937c tcp_cubic: add SNMP counters to track how effective is Hystart
When deploying FQ pacing, one thing we noticed is that CUBIC Hystart

Having SNMP counters to have an idea of how often the various Hystart

This patch adds SNMP counters tracking, how many time "ack train" or
"Delay" based Hystart triggers, and cumulative sum of cwnd at the time
Hystart decided to end SS (Slow Start)

829ae9d611 net-timestamp: allow reading recv cmsg on errqueue with origin tstamp
Allow reading of timestamps and cmsg at the same time on all relevant
socket families. One use is to correlate timestamps with egress
device, by asking for cmsg IP_PKTINFO.

on AF_INET sockets, call the relevant function (ip_cmsg_recv). To
avoid changing legacy expectations, only do so if the caller sets a
new timestamping flag SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_CMSG.

on AF_INET6 sockets, IPV6_PKTINFO and all other recv cmsg are already
returned for all origins. only change is to set ifindex, which is
not initialized for all error origins.

In both cases, only generate the pktinfo message if an ifindex is
known. This is not the case for ACK timestamps.

The difference between the protocol families is probably a historical
accident as a result of the different conditions for generating cmsg
in the relevant ip(v6)_recv_error function:

ipv4:        if (serr->ee.ee_origin == SO_EE_ORIGIN_ICMP) {
ipv6:        if (serr->ee.ee_origin != SO_EE_ORIGIN_LOCAL) {

At one time, this was the same test bar for the ICMP/ICMP6
distinction. This is no longer true.

Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com>

----

Changes
  v1 -> v2
    large rewrite
    - integrate with existing pktinfo cmsg generation code
    - on ipv4: only send with new flag, to maintain legacy behavior
    - on ipv6: send at most a single pktinfo cmsg
    - on ipv6: initialize fields if not yet initialized

The recv cmsg interfaces are also relevant to the discussion of
whether looping packet headers is problematic. For v6, cmsgs that
identify many headers are already returned. This patch expands
that to v4. If it sounds reasonable, I will follow with patches

1. request timestamps without payload with SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TSONLY
   (http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/366967/)
2. sysctl to conditionally drop all timestamps that have payload or
   cmsg from users without CAP_NET_RAW.

The following batch contains netfilter updates for net-next. Basically,
enhancements for xt_recent, skip zeroing of timer in conntrack, fix

2) Skip zeroing timer area in nf_conn objects, also from Florian.

3) Inspect IPv4 and IPv6 traffic from the bridge to allow filtering using
   using meta l4proto and transport layer header, from Alvaro Neira.

4) Fix linking problems in the new redirect support when CONFIG_IPV6=n
   and IP6_NF_IPTABLES=n.

And ipset updates from Jozsef Kadlecsik:

5) Support updating element extensions when the set is full (fixes
   netfilter bugzilla id 880).

6) Fix set match with 32-bits userspace / 64-bits kernel.

7) Indicate explicitly when /0 networks are supported in ipset.

8) Simplify cidr handling for hash:*net* types.

9) Allocate the proper size of memory when /0 networks are supported.

10) Explicitly add padding elements to hash:net,net and hash:net,port,
    because the elements must be u32 sized for the used hash function.

Jozsef is also cooking ipset RCU conversion which should land soon if
they reach the merge window in time.

f4713a3dfa net-timestamp: make tcp_recvmsg call ipv6_recv_error for AF_INET6 socks
TCP timestamping introduced MSG_ERRQUEUE handling for TCP sockets.
If the socket is of family AF_INET6, call ipv6_recv_error instead
of ip_recv_error.

This change is more complex than a single branch due to the loadable
ipv6 module. It reuses a pre-existing indirect function call from
ping. The ping code is safe to call, because it is part of the core
ipv6 module and always present when AF_INET6 sockets are active.

20ea60ca99 ip_tunnel: the lack of vti_link_ops' dellink() cause kernel panic
Now the vti_link_ops do not point the .dellink, for fb tunnel device
(ip_vti0), the net_device will be removed as the default .dellink is
unregister_netdevice_queue,but the tunnel still in the tunnel list,
then if we add a new vti tunnel, in ip_tunnel_find():

        hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(t, head, hash_node) {
                if (local == t->parms.iph.saddr &&
                    remote == t->parms.iph.daddr &&
                    link == t->parms.link &&
==>                 type == t->dev->type &&
                    ip_tunnel_key_match(&t->parms, flags, key))
                        break;
        }

the panic will happen, cause dev of ip_tunnel *t is null:

modprobe ip_vti
ip link del ip_vti0 type vti
ip link add ip_vti0 type vti
rmmod ip_vti

do that one or more times, kernel will panic.

fix it by assigning ip_tunnel_dellink to vti_link_ops' dellink, in
which we skip the unregister of fb tunnel device. do the same on ip6_vti.

1459143386 Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net
Conflicts:
	drivers/net/ieee802154/fakehard.c

A bug fix went into 'net' for ieee802154/fakehard.c, which is removed
in 'net-next'.

Add build fix into the merge from Stephen Rothwell in openvswitch, the
logging macros take a new initial 'log' argument, a new call was added
in 'net' so when we merge that in here we have to explicitly add the
new 'log' arg to it else the build fails.

0c228e833c tcp: Restore RFC5961-compliant behavior for SYN packets
Commit c3ae62af8e ("tcp: should drop incoming frames without ACK
flag set") was created to mitigate a security vulnerability in which a
local attacker is able to inject data into locally-opened sockets by
using TCP protocol statistics in procfs to quickly find the correct
sequence number.

This broke the RFC5961 requirement to send a challenge ACK in response
to spurious RST packets, which was subsequently fixed by commit
7b514a886b ("tcp: accept RST without ACK flag").

Unfortunately, the RFC5961 requirement that spurious SYN packets be
handled in a similar manner remains broken.

RFC5961 section 4 states that:

   ... the handling of the SYN in the synchronized state SHOULD be
   performed as follows:

   1) If the SYN bit is set, irrespective of the sequence number, TCP
      MUST send an ACK (also referred to as challenge ACK) to the remote
      peer:

      <SEQ=SND.NXT><ACK=RCV.NXT><CTL=ACK>

      After sending the acknowledgment, TCP MUST drop the unacceptable
      segment and stop processing further.

   By sending an ACK, the remote peer is challenged to confirm the loss
   of the previous connection and the request to start a new connection.
   A legitimate peer, after restart, would not have a TCB in the
   synchronized state.  Thus, when the ACK arrives, the peer should send
   a RST segment back with the sequence number derived from the ACK
   field that caused the RST.

   This RST will confirm that the remote peer has indeed closed the
   previous connection.  Upon receipt of a valid RST, the local TCP
   endpoint MUST terminate its connection.  The local TCP endpoint
   should then rely on SYN retransmission from the remote end to
   re-establish the connection.

This patch lets SYN packets through the discard added in c3ae62af8e,
so that spurious SYN packets are properly dealt with as per the RFC.

The challenge ACK is sent unconditionally and is rate-limited, so the
original vulnerability is not reintroduced by this patch.
