Florian Westphal 0f6c6392dc ipv6: copy prefsrc setting when copying route entry
commit c3968a857a
('ipv6: RTA_PREFSRC support for ipv6 route source address selection')
added support for ipv6 prefsrc as an alternative to ipv6 addrlabels,
but it did not work because the prefsrc entry was not copied.

Eric Dumazet be281e554e ipv6: reduce per device ICMP mib sizes
ipv6 has per device ICMP SNMP counters, taking too much space because
they use percpu storage.

needed size per device is :
(512+4)*sizeof(long)*number_of_possible_cpus*2

On a 32bit kernel, 16 possible cpus, this wastes more than 64kbytes of
memory per ipv6 enabled network device, taken in vmalloc pool.

Since ICMP messages are rare, just use shared counters (atomic_long_t)

Per network space ICMP counters are still using percpu memory, we might
also convert them to shared counters in a future patch.

Steffen Klassert 43a4dea4c9 xfrm: Assign the inner mode output function to the dst entry
As it is, we assign the outer modes output function to the dst entry
when we create the xfrm bundle. This leads to two problems on interfamily
scenarios. We might insert ipv4 packets into ip6_fragment when called
from xfrm6_output. The system crashes if we try to fragment an ipv4
packet with ip6_fragment. This issue was introduced with git commit
ad0081e4 (ipv6: Fragment locally generated tunnel-mode IPSec6 packets
as needed). The second issue is, that we might insert ipv4 packets in
netfilter6 and vice versa on interfamily scenarios.

With this patch we assign the inner mode output function to the dst entry
when we create the xfrm bundle. So xfrm4_output/xfrm6_output from the inner
mode is used and the right fragmentation and netfilter functions are called.
We switch then to outer mode with the output_finish functions.

Fernando Luis Vazquez Cao 4319cc0cf5 netfilter: IPv6: initialize TOS field in REJECT target module
The IPv6 header is not zeroed out in alloc_skb so we must initialize
it properly unless we want to see IPv6 packets with random TOS fields
floating around. The current implementation resets the flow label
but this could be changed if deemed necessary.

We stumbled upon this issue when trying to apply a mangle rule to
the RST packet generated by the REJECT target module.

David S. Miller bdc712b4c2 inet: Decrease overhead of on-stack inet_cork.
When we fast path datagram sends to avoid locking by putting
the inet_cork on the stack we use up lots of space that isn't
necessary.

This is because inet_cork contains a "struct flowi" which isn't
used in these code paths.

Split inet_cork to two parts, "inet_cork" and "inet_cork_full".
Only the latter of which has the "struct flowi" and is what is
stored in inet_sock.

Eric Dumazet e67f88dd12 net: dont hold rtnl mutex during netlink dump callbacks
Four years ago, Patrick made a change to hold rtnl mutex during netlink
dump callbacks.

I believe it was a wrong move. This slows down concurrent dumps, making
good old /proc/net/ files faster than rtnetlink in some situations.

This occurred to me because one "ip link show dev ..." was _very_ slow
on a workload adding/removing network devices in background.

All dump callbacks are able to use RCU locking now, so this patch does
roughly a revert of commits :

1c2d670f36 : [RTNETLINK]: Hold rtnl_mutex during netlink dump callbacks
6313c1e099 : [RTNETLINK]: Remove unnecessary locking in dump callbacks

This let writers fight for rtnl mutex and readers going full speed.

It also takes care of phonet : phonet_route_get() is now called from rcu
read section. I renamed it to phonet_route_get_rcu()

Ben Hutchings ad246c992b ipv4, ipv6, bonding: Restore control over number of peer notifications
For backward compatibility, we should retain the module parameters and
sysfs attributes to control the number of peer notifications
(gratuitous ARPs and unsolicited NAs) sent after bonding failover.
Also, it is possible for failover to take place even though the new
active slave does not have link up, and in that case the peer
notification should be deferred until it does.

Change ipv4 and ipv6 so they do not automatically send peer
notifications on bonding failover.

Change the bonding driver to send separate NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEERS
notifications when the link is up, as many times as requested.  Since
it does not directly control which protocols send notifications, make
num_grat_arp and num_unsol_na aliases for a single parameter.  Bump
the bonding version number and update its documentation.

Eric Dumazet f6d8bd051c inet: add RCU protection to inet->opt
We lack proper synchronization to manipulate inet->opt ip_options

Problem is ip_make_skb() calls ip_setup_cork() and
ip_setup_cork() possibly makes a copy of ipc->opt (struct ip_options),
without any protection against another thread manipulating inet->opt.

Another thread can change inet->opt pointer and free old one under us.

Use RCU to protect inet->opt (changed to inet->inet_opt).

Instead of handling atomic refcounts, just copy ip_options when
necessary, to avoid cache line dirtying.

We cant insert an rcu_head in struct ip_options since its included in
skb->cb[], so this patch is large because I had to introduce a new
ip_options_rcu structure.

result, ipv6_get_mtu interprets the return value of dst_metric_raw

the line such that ping6 is answered with the hoplimit value

At this point, skb->data points to skb_transport_header.
So, headroom check is wrong.

But headroom check is always false.

This will bring about data be moved to there prior to skb->head,

It causes known regressions for programs that expect to be able to use
SO_REUSEADDR to shutdown a socket, then successfully rebind another
socket to the same ID.

Programs such as haproxy and amavisd expect this to work.

This should fix kernel bugzilla 32832.

Neil Horman 47482f132a ipv6: Enable RFS sk_rxhash tracking for ipv6 sockets (v2)
properly record sk_rxhash in ipv6 sockets (v2)

Noticed while working on another project that flows to sockets which I had open
on a test systems weren't getting steered properly when I had RFS enabled.
Looking more closely I found that:

1) The affected sockets were all ipv6
2) They weren't getting steered because sk->sk_rxhash was never set from the
incomming skbs on that socket.

This was occuring because there are several points in the IPv4 tcp and udp code
which save the rxhash value when a new connection is established.  Those calls
to sock_rps_save_rxhash were never added to the corresponding ipv6 code paths.
This patch adds those calls.  Tested by myself to properly enable RFS
functionalty on ipv6.

Eric Dumazet 7f5c6d4f66 netfilter: get rid of atomic ops in fast path
We currently use a percpu spinlock to 'protect' rule bytes/packets
counters, after various attempts to use RCU instead.

Lately we added a seqlock so that get_counters() can run without
blocking BH or 'writers'. But we really only need the seqcount in it.

Spinlock itself is only locked by the current/owner cpu, so we can
remove it completely.

This cleanups api, using correct 'writer' vs 'reader' semantic.

At replace time, the get_counters() call makes sure all cpus are done
using the old table.

Florian Westphal 0fae2e7740 netfilter: af_info: add 'strict' parameter to limit lookup to .oif
ipv6 fib lookup can set RT6_LOOKUP_F_IFACE flag to restrict search
to an interface, but this flag cannot be set via struct flowi.

Also, it cannot be set via ip6_route_output: this function uses the
passed sock struct to determine if this flag is required
(by testing for nonzero sk_bound_dev_if).

Work around this by passing in an artificial struct sk in case
'strict' argument is true.

This is required to replace the rt6_lookup call in xt_addrtype.c with
nf_afinfo->route().

Timo Teräs 93ca3bb5df net: gre: provide multicast mappings for ipv4 and ipv6
My commit 6d55cb91a0 (gre: fix hard header destination
address checking) broke multicast.

The reason is that ip_gre used to get ipgre_header() calls with
zero destination if we have NOARP or multicast destination. Instead
the actual target was decided at ipgre_tunnel_xmit() time based on
per-protocol dissection.

Instead of allowing the "abuse" of ->header() calls with invalid
destination, this creates multicast mappings for ip_gre. This also
fixes "ip neigh show nud noarp" to display the proper multicast
mappings used by the gre device.
