In our test lab, we have a simple SCTP client connecting to a SCTP
server via an IPVS load balancer. On some machines, load balancing
works, but on others the initial handshake just fails, thus no
SCTP connection whatsoever can be established!
We observed that the SCTP INIT-ACK handshake reply from the IPVS
machine to the client had a correct IP checksum, but corrupt SCTP
checksum when forwarded, thus on the client-side the packet was
dropped and an intial handshake retriggered until all attempts
run into the void.
To fix this issue, this patch i) adds a missing CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
after the full checksum (re-)calculation (as done in IPVS TCP and UDP
code as well), ii) calculates the checksum in little-endian format
(as fixed with the SCTP code in commit 4458f04c: sctp: Clean up sctp
checksumming code) and iii) refactors duplicate checksum code into a
common function. Tested by myself.

This series of improvements for 3.8/net-next contains four components:
* Support for modifying IPv6 headers
* Support for matching and setting skb->mark for better integration with
things like iptables
* Ability to recognize the EtherType for RARP packets
* Two small performance enhancements
The movement of ipv6_find_hdr() into exthdrs_core.c causes two small merge

are:
* ipv6_find_hdr() and ipv6_find_tlv() were both moved to the bottom of
exthdrs_core.c. Both should stay.
* A new use of ipv6_find_hdr() was added to net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_core.c

IPVS now supports fragmented packets, with support from nf_conntrack_reasm.c
Based on patch from: Hans Schillstrom.
IPVS do like conntrack i.e. use the skb->nfct_reasm
(i.e. when all fragments is collected, nf_ct_frag6_output()
starts a "re-play" of all fragments into the interrupted
PREROUTING chain at prio -399 (NF_IP6_PRI_CONNTRACK_DEFRAG+1)
with nfct_reasm pointing to the assembled packet.)
Notice, module nf_defrag_ipv6 must be loaded for this to work.
Report unhandled fragments, and recommend user to load nf_defrag_ipv6.
To handle fw-mark for fragments. Add a new IPVS hook into prerouting
chain at prio -99 (NF_IP6_PRI_NAT_DST+1) to catch fragments, and copy
fw-mark info from the first packet with an upper layer header.
IPv6 fragment handling should be the last thing on the IPVS IPv6
missing support list.

IPv6 packets can contain extension headers, thus its wrong to assume
that the transport/upper-layer header, starts right after (struct
ipv6hdr) the IPv6 header. IPVS uses this false assumption, and will
write SNAT & DNAT modifications at a fixed pos which will corrupt the
message.
To fix this, proper header position must be found before modifying
packets. Introducing ip_vs_fill_iph_skb(), which uses ipv6_find_hdr()
to skip the exthdrs. It finds (1) the transport header offset, (2) the
protocol, and (3) detects if the packet is a fragment.
Note, that fragments in IPv6 is represented via an exthdr. Thus, this
is detected while skipping through the exthdrs.
This patch depends on commit 84018f55a:
"netfilter: ip6_tables: add flags parameter to ipv6_find_hdr()"
This also adds a dependency to ip6_tables.
Originally based on patch from: Hans Schillstrom
kABI notes:
Changing struct ip_vs_iphdr is a potential minor kABI breaker,
because external modules can be compiled with another version of
this struct. This should not matter, as they would most-likely
be using a compiled-in version of ip_vs_fill_iphdr(). When
recompiled, they will notice ip_vs_fill_iphdr() no longer exists,
and they have to used ip_vs_fill_iph_skb() instead.

For mangling IPv6 packets the protocol header offset needs to be known
by the NAT packet mangling functions. Add a so far unused protoff argument
and convert the conntrack and NAT helpers to use it in preparation of
IPv6 NAT.
Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
The IPv6 conntrack fragmentation currently has a couple of shortcomings.
Fragmentes are collected in PREROUTING/OUTPUT, are defragmented, the
defragmented packet is then passed to conntrack, the resulting conntrack
information is attached to each original fragment and the fragments then
continue their way through the stack.
Helper invocation occurs in the POSTROUTING hook, at which point only
the original fragments are available. The result of this is that
fragmented packets are never passed to helpers.
This patch improves the situation in the following way:
- If a reassembled packet belongs to a connection that has a helper
assigned, the reassembled packet is passed through the stack instead
of the original fragments.
- During defragmentation, the largest received fragment size is stored.
On output, the packet is refragmented if required. If the largest
received fragment size exceeds the outgoing MTU, a "packet too big"
message is generated, thus behaving as if the original fragments
were passed through the stack from an outside point of view.
- The ipv6_helper() hook function can't receive fragments anymore for
connections using a helper, so it is switched to use ipv6_skip_exthdr()
instead of the netfilter specific nf_ct_ipv6_skip_exthdr() and the
reassembled packets are passed to connection tracking helpers.
The result of this is that we can properly track fragmented packets, but
still generate ICMPv6 Packet too big messages if we would have before.
This patch is also required as a precondition for IPv6 NAT, where NAT
helpers might enlarge packets up to a point that they require
fragmentation. In that case we can't generate Packet too big messages
since the proper MTU can't be calculated in all cases (f.i. when
changing textual representation of a variable amount of addresses),
so the packet is transparently fragmented iff the original packet or
fragments would have fit the outgoing MTU.

Cleaning up the IPv6 MTU checking in the IPVS xmit code, by using
a common helper function __mtu_check_toobig_v6().
The MTU check for tunnel mode can also use this helper as
ntohs(old_iph->payload_len) + sizeof(struct ipv6hdr) is qual to
skb->len. And the 'mtu' variable have been adjusted before
calling helper.
Notice, this also fixes a bug, as the the MTU check in ip_vs_dr_xmit_v6()
were missing a check for skb_is_gso().
This bug e.g. caused issues for KVM IPVS setups, where different
Segmentation Offloading techniques are utilized, between guests,

due to the ICMPv6 "too big" messages didn't affect the sender.

IPVS is missing the logic to update PMTU in routing
for its IPIP packets. We monitor the dst_mtu and can return
FRAG_NEEDED messages but if the tunneled packets get ICMP
error we can not rely on other traffic to save the lowest
MTU.
The following patch adds ICMP handling for IPIP
packets in incoming direction, from some remote host to
our local IP used as saddr in the outer header. By this
way we can forward any related ICMP traffic if it is for IPVS
TUN connection. For the special case of PMTUD we update the
routing and if client requested DF we can forward the
error.
To properly update the routing we have to bind
the cached route (dest->dst_cache) to the selected saddr
because ipv4_update_pmtu uses saddr for dst lookup.
Add IP_VS_RT_MODE_CONNECT flag to force such binding with
second route.
Update ip_vs_tunnel_xmit to provide IP_VS_RT_MODE_CONNECT
and change the code to copy DF. For now we prefer not to
force PMTU discovery (outer DF=1) because we don't have
configuration option to enable or disable PMTUD. As we
do not keep any packets to resend, we prefer not to
play games with packets without DF bit because the sender
is not informed when they are rejected.
Also, change ops->update_pmtu to be called only
for local clients because there is no point to update
MTU for input routes, in our case skb->dst->dev is lo.
It seems the code is copied from ipip.c where the skb
dst points to tunnel device.

Add two new sysctl vars to control the sync rate with the
main idea to reduce the rate for connection templates because
currently it depends on the packet rate for controlled connections.
This mechanism should be useful also for normal connections
with high traffic.
sync_refresh_period: in seconds, difference in reported connection
timer that triggers new sync message. It can be used to
avoid sync messages for the specified period (or half of
the connection timeout if it is lower) if connection state
is not changed from last sync.
sync_retries: integer, 0..3, defines sync retries with period of
sync_refresh_period/8. Useful to protect against loss of
sync messages.
Allow sysctl_sync_threshold to be used with
sysctl_sync_period=0, so that only single sync message is sent
if sync_refresh_period is also 0.
Add new field "sync_endtime" in connection structure to
hold the reported time when connection expires. The 2 lowest
bits will represent the retry count.
As the sysctl_sync_period now can be 0 use ACCESS_ONCE to
avoid division by zero.

High rate of sync messages in master can lead to
overflowing the socket buffer and dropping the messages.
Fixed sleep of 1 second without wakeup events is not suitable
for loaded masters,
Use delayed_work to schedule sending for queued messages
and limit the delay to IPVS_SYNC_SEND_DELAY (20ms). This will
reduce the rate of wakeups but to avoid sending long bursts we
wakeup the master thread after IPVS_SYNC_WAKEUP_RATE (8) messages.
Add hard limit for the queued messages before sending
by using "sync_qlen_max" sysctl var. It defaults to 1/32 of
the memory pages but actually represents number of messages.
It will protect us from allocating large parts of memory
when the sending rate is lower than the queuing rate.
As suggested by Pablo, add new sysctl var
"sync_sock_size" to configure the SNDBUF (master) or
RCVBUF (slave) socket limit. Default value is 0 (preserve
system defaults).
Change the master thread to detect and block on
SNDBUF overflow, so that we do not drop messages when
the socket limit is low but the sync_qlen_max limit is
not reached. On ENOBUFS or other errors just drop the
messages.
Change master thread to enter TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE
state early, so that we do not miss wakeups due to messages or
kthread_should_stop event.

As the goal is to mirror the inactconns/activeconns
counters in the backup server, make sure the cp->flags are
updated even if cp is still not bound to dest. If cp->flags
are not updated ip_vs_bind_dest will rely only on the initial
flags when updating the counters. To avoid mistakes and
complicated checks for protocol state rely only on the
IP_VS_CONN_F_INACTIVE bit when updating the counters.

Initially, when the synced connection is created we
use the forwarding method provided by master but once we
bind to destination it can be changed. As result, we must
update the application and the transmitter.
As ip_vs_try_bind_dest is called always for connections
that require dest binding, there is no need to validate the
cp and dest pointers.

As the IP_VS_CONN_F_INACTIVE bit is properly set
in cp->flags for all kind of connections we do not need to
add special checks for synced connections when updating
the activeconns/inactconns counters for first time. Now
logic will look just like in ip_vs_unbind_dest.
