2010-12-08tcp: protect sysctl_tcp_cookie_size readsEric Dumazet

2010-12-08tcp: Bug fix in initialization of receive window.Nandita Dukkipati
The bug has to do with boundary checks on the initial receive window. If the initial receive window falls between init_cwnd and the receive window specified by the user, the initial window is incorrectly brought down to init_cwnd. The correct behavior is to allow it to remain unchanged. Signed-off-by: Nandita Dukkipati <nanditad@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-11-28inet: Fix __inet_inherit_port() to correctly increment bsockets and num_ownersNagendra Tomar
inet sockets corresponding to passive connections are added to the bind hash using ___inet_inherit_port(). These sockets are later removed from the bind hash using __inet_put_port(). These two functions are not exactly symmetrical. __inet_put_port() decrements hashinfo->bsockets and tb->num_owners, whereas ___inet_inherit_port() does not increment them. This results in both of these going to -ve values. This patch fixes this by calling inet_bind_hash() from ___inet_inherit_port(), which does the right thing. 'bsockets' and 'num_owners' were introduced by commit a9d8f9110d7e953c (inet: Allowing more than 64k connections and heavily optimize bind(0)) Signed-off-by: Nagendra Singh Tomar <tomer_iisc@yahoo.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Acked-by: Evgeniy Polyakov <zbr@ioremap.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-11-28tcp: restrict net.ipv4.tcp_adv_win_scale (#20312)Alexey Dobriyan
tcp_win_from_space() does the following: if (sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale <= 0) return space >> (-sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale); else return space - (space >> sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale); "space" is int. As per C99 6.5.7 (3) shifting int for 32 or more bits is undefined behaviour. Indeed, if sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale is exactly 32, space >> 32 equals space and function returns 0. Which means we busyloop in tcp_fixup_rcvbuf(). Restrict net.ipv4.tcp_adv_win_scale to [-31, 31].

Alexey Kuznetsov noticed a regression introduced by commit f1ecd5d9e7366609d640ff4040304ea197fbc618 ("Revert Backoff [v3]: Revert RTO on ICMP destination unreachable") The RTO and timer modification code added to tcp_v4_err() doesn't check sock_owned_by_user(), which if true means we don't have exclusive access to the socket and therefore cannot modify it's critical state.

2010-11-10tcp: Increase TCP_MAXSEG socket option minimum.David S. Miller
As noted by Steve Chen, since commit f5fff5dc8a7a3f395b0525c02ba92c95d42b7390 ("tcp: advertise MSS requested by user") we can end up with a situation where tcp_select_initial_window() does a divide by a zero (or even negative) mss value. The problem is that sometimes we effectively subtract TCPOLEN_TSTAMP_ALIGNED and/or TCPOLEN_MD5SIG_ALIGNED from the mss. Fix this by increasing the minimum from 8 to 64.

2010-10-27tunnels: Fix tunnels change rcu protectionPavel Emelyanov
After making rcu protection for tunnels (ipip, gre, sit and ip6) a bug was introduced into the SIOCCHGTUNNEL code. The tunnel is first unlinked, then addresses change, then it is linked back probably into another bucket. But while changing the parms, the hash table is unlocked to readers and they can lookup the improper tunnel. Respective commits are b7285b79 (ipip: get rid of ipip_lock), 1507850b (gre: get rid of ipgre_lock), 3a43be3c (sit: get rid of ipip6_lock) and 94767632 (ip6tnl: get rid of ip6_tnl_lock). The quick fix is to wait for quiescent state to pass after unlinking, but if it is inappropriate I can invent something better, just let me know.

2010-10-21tproxy: fix hash locking issue when using port redirection in ↵Balazs Scheidler
__inet_inherit_port() When __inet_inherit_port() is called on a tproxy connection the wrong locks are held for the inet_bind_bucket it is added to. __inet_inherit_port() made an implicit assumption that the listener's port number (and thus its bind bucket). Unfortunately, if you're using the TPROXY target to redirect skbs to a transparent proxy that assumption is not true anymore and things break. This patch adds code to __inet_inherit_port() so that it can handle this case by looking up or creating a new bind bucket for the child socket and updates callers of __inet_inherit_port() to gracefully handle __inet_inherit_port() failing.

2010-10-20net: avoid RCU for NOCACHE dstEric Dumazet
There is no point using RCU for dst we allocate for a very short time (used once). Change dst_release() to take DST_NOCACHE into account, but also change skb_dst_set_noref() to force a refcount increment for such dst. This is a _huge_ gain, because we dont waste memory to store xx thousand of dsts. Instead of queueing them to RCU, we can free them instantly. CPU caches can stay hot, re-using same memory blocks to hold temporary dsts. Note : remove unneeded smp_mb__before_atomic_dec(); in dst_release(), since atomic_dec_return() implies a full memory barrier.

2010-10-17fib_hash: RCU conversion phase 2Eric Dumazet
Get rid of fib_hash_lock rwlock. The fn_zone hash table resize is the noticeable part of this patch. I added a seqlock per fn_zone, so that readers can restart their lookup in the (very rare) case a writer expanded the hash table. Add rcu heads in fib_alias and fib_node, use call_rcu() to defer their freeing, and use appropriate _rcu list manipulations.

2010-10-17fib_hash: RCU conversion phase 1Eric Dumazet
First step for RCU conversion of fib_hash : struct fn_zone are created and never deleted. Very classic conversion, using rcu_assign_pointer(), rcu_dereference() and rtnl_dereference() verbs. __rcu markers on fz_next and fn_zone_list They are created under RTNL, we dont need fib_hash_lock anymore in fn_new_zone().

2010-10-17fib_hash: embed initial hash table in fn_zoneEric Dumazet
While looking for false sharing problems, I noticed sizeof(struct fn_zone) was small (28 bytes) and possibly sharing a cache line with an often written kernel structure. Most of the time, fn_zone uses its initial hash table of 16 slots. We can avoid the false sharing problem by embedding this initial hash table in fn_zone itself, so that sizeof(fn_zone) > L1_CACHE_BYTES We did a similar optimization in commit a6501e080c (Reduce memory needs and speedup lookups) Add a fz_revorder field to speedup fn_hash() a bit.
