2014-10-30drivers/net, ipv6: Select IPv6 fragment idents for virtio UFO packetsBen Hutchings
UFO is now disabled on all drivers that work with virtio net headers, but userland may try to send UFO/IPv6 packets anyway. Instead of sending with ID=0, we should select identifiers on their behalf (as we used to).

2014-08-24ipv6: White-space cleansing : Line LayoutsIan Morris
This patch makes no changes to the logic of the code but simply addresses coding style issues as detected by checkpatch. Both objdump and diff -w show no differences. A number of items are addressed in this patch: * Multiple spaces converted to tabs * Spaces before tabs removed. * Spaces in pointer typing cleansed (char *)foo etc. * Remove space after sizeof * Ensure spacing around comparators such as if statements.

2014-06-11net: ipv6: Fixed up ipsec packet be re-routing issuehuizhang
Bug report on https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75781 When a local output ipsec packet match the mangle table rule, and be set mark value, the packet will be route again in route_me_harder -> _session_decoder6 In this case, the nhoff in CB of skb was still the default value 0. So the protocal match can't success and the packet can't match correct SA rule,and then the packet be send out in plaintext. To fixed up the issue. The CB->nhoff must be set.

2014-06-02net: fix inet_getid() and ipv6_select_ident() bugsEric Dumazet
I noticed we were sending wrong IPv4 ID in TCP flows when MTU discovery is disabled. Note how GSO/TSO packets do not have monotonically incrementing ID. 06:37:41.575531 IP (id 14227, proto: TCP (6), length: 4396) 06:37:41.575534 IP (id 14272, proto: TCP (6), length: 65212) 06:37:41.575544 IP (id 14312, proto: TCP (6), length: 57972) 06:37:41.575678 IP (id 14317, proto: TCP (6), length: 7292) 06:37:41.575683 IP (id 14361, proto: TCP (6), length: 63764) It appears I introduced this bug in linux-3.1. inet_getid() must return the old value of peer->ip_id_count, not the new one. Lets revert this part, and remove the prevention of a null identification field in IPv6 Fragment Extension Header, which is dubious and not even done properly.

2014-06-02inetpeer: get rid of ip_id_countEric Dumazet
Ideally, we would need to generate IP ID using a per destination IP generator. linux kernels used inet_peer cache for this purpose, but this had a huge cost on servers disabling MTU discovery. 1) each inet_peer struct consumes 192 bytes 2) inetpeer cache uses a binary tree of inet_peer structs, with a nominal size of ~66000 elements under load. 3) lookups in this tree are hitting a lot of cache lines, as tree depth is about 20. 4) If server deals with many tcp flows, we have a high probability of not finding the inet_peer, allocating a fresh one, inserting it in the tree with same initial ip_id_count, (cf secure_ip_id()) 5) We garbage collect inet_peer aggressively. IP ID generation do not have to be 'perfect' Goal is trying to avoid duplicates in a short period of time, so that reassembly units have a chance to complete reassembly of fragments belonging to one message before receiving other fragments with a recycled ID. We simply use an array of generators, and a Jenkin hash using the dst IP as a key. ipv6_select_ident() is put back into net/ipv6/ip6_output.c where it belongs (it is only used from this file) secure_ip_id() and secure_ipv6_id() no longer are needed. Rename ip_select_ident_more() to ip_select_ident_segs() to avoid unnecessary decrement/increment of the number of segments. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-03-31ipv6: strengthen fallback fragmentation id generationHannes Frederic Sowa
First off, we don't need to check for non-NULL rt any more, as we are guaranteed to always get a valid rt6_info. Drop the check. In case we couldn't allocate an inet_peer for fragmentation information we currently generate strictly incrementing fragmentation ids for all destination. This is done to maximize the cycle and avoid collisions. Those fragmentation ids are very predictable. At least we should try to mix in the destination address. While it should make no difference to simply use a PRNG at this point, secure_ipv6_id ensures that we don't leak information from prandom, so its internal state could be recoverable. This fallback function should normally not get used thus this should not affect performance at all. It is just meant as a safety net.

2014-03-06inet: remove now unused flag DST_NOPEERHannes Frederic Sowa
Commit e688a604807647 ("net: introduce DST_NOPEER dst flag") introduced DST_NOPEER because because of crashes in ipv6_select_ident called from udp6_ufo_fragment. Since commit 916e4cf46d0204 ("ipv6: reuse ip6_frag_id from ip6_ufo_append_data") we don't call ipv6_select_ident any more from ip6_ufo_append_data, thus this flag lost its purpose and can be removed.

2013-05-28ipv6: Correct comparisons and calculations using skb->tail and ↵Simon Horman
skb-transport_header This corrects an regression introduced by "net: Use 16bits for *_headers fields of struct skbuff" when NET_SKBUFF_DATA_USES_OFFSET is not set. In that case skb->tail will be a pointer whereas skb->transport_header will be an offset from head. This is corrected by using wrappers that ensure that comparisons and calculations are always made using pointers. Signed-off-by: Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au> Signed-off-by: David S.
