2008-02-28[XFRM]: Speed up xfrm_policy and xfrm_state walkingTimo Teras
Change xfrm_policy and xfrm_state walking algorithm from O(n^2) to O(n). This is achieved adding the entries to one more list which is used solely for walking the entries. This also fixes some races where the dump can have duplicate or missing entries when the SPD/SADB is modified during an ongoing dump. Dumping SADB with 20000 entries using "time ip xfrm state" the sys time dropped from 1.012s to 0.080s. Signed-off-by: Timo Teras <timo.teras@iki.fi> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-02-17[XFRM]: Fix ordering issue in xfrm_dst_hash_transfer().YOSHIFUJI Hideaki
Keep ordering of policy entries with same selector in xfrm_dst_hash_transfer(). Issue should not appear in usual cases because multiple policy entries with same selector are basically not allowed so far. Bug was pointed out by Sebastien Decugis <sdecugis@hongo.wide.ad.jp>. We could convert bydst from hlist to list and use list_add_tail() instead.

This patch adds support for combined mode algorithms with GCM being the first algorithm supported.

2008-01-28[XFRM]: Drop packets when replay counter would overflowPaul Moore
According to RFC4303, section 3.3.3 we need to drop outgoing packets which cause the replay counter to overflow: 3.3.3. Sequence Number Generation The sender's counter is initialized to 0 when an SA is established. The sender increments the sequence number (or ESN) counter for this SA and inserts the low-order 32 bits of the value into the Sequence Number field. Thus, the first packet sent using a given SA will contain a sequence number of 1. If anti-replay is enabled (the default), the sender checks to ensure that the counter has not cycled before inserting the new value in the Sequence Number field. In other words, the sender MUST NOT send a packet on an SA if doing so would cause the sequence number to cycle. An attempt to transmit a packet that would result in sequence number overflow is an auditable event. The audit log entry for this event SHOULD include the SPI value, current date/time, Source Address, Destination Address, and (in IPv6) the cleartext Flow ID.

2008-01-28[XFRM]: RFC4303 compliant auditingPaul Moore
This patch adds a number of new IPsec audit events to meet the auditing requirements of RFC4303.

The one case, integrity check failure, where ESP specific code had to be modified the same was done to the AH code for the sake of consistency.

2008-01-28[XFRM]: Fix potential race vs xfrm_state(only)_find and xfrm_hash_resize.Pavel Emelyanov
The _find calls calculate the hash value using the xfrm_state_hmask, without the xfrm_state_lock. But the value of this mask can change in the _resize call under the state_lock, so we risk to fail in finding the desired entry in hash.

2008-01-28[IPSEC]: Fix zero return value in xfrm_lookup on errorHerbert Xu
Further testing shows that my ICMP relookup patch can cause xfrm_lookup to return zero on error which isn't very nice since it leads to the caller dying on null pointer dereference. The bug is due to not setting err to ENOENT just before we leave xfrm_lookup in case of no policy. This patch moves the err setting to where it should be.

2008-01-28[IPSEC]: Add ICMP host relookup supportHerbert Xu
RFC 4301 requires us to relookup ICMP traffic that does not match any policies using the reverse of its payload.

This is activated on outbound with the new policy flag XFRM_POLICY_ICMP, and on inbound by the new state flag XFRM_STATE_ICMP. On inbound the policy check is now performed by the ICMP protocol so that it can repeat the policy check where necessary.

This patch introduces an enum for bits in the flags argument of xfrm_lookup. This is so that we can cram more information into it later.

2008-01-28[IPSEC]: SPD auditing fix to include the netmask/prefix-lengthPaul Moore
Currently the netmask/prefix-length of an IPsec SPD entry is not included in any of the SPD related audit messages. This can cause a problem when the audit log is examined as the netmask/prefix-length is vital in determining what network traffic is affected by a particular SPD entry. This patch fixes this problem by adding two additional fields, "src_prefixlen" and "dst_prefixlen", to the SPD audit messages to indicate the source and destination netmasks. These new fields are only included in the audit message when the netmask/prefix-length is less than the address length, i.e. the SPD entry applies to a network address and not a host address. Example audit message: type=UNKNOWN[1415] msg=audit(1196105849.752:25): auid=0 \ subj=root:system_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 op=SPD-add res=1 \ src=192.168.0.0 src_prefixlen=24 dst=192.168.1.0 dst_prefixlen=24 In addition, this patch also fixes a few other things in the xfrm_audit_common_policyinfo() function. The IPv4 string formatting was converted to use the standard NIPQUAD_FMT constant, the memcpy() was removed from the IPv6 code path and replaced with a typecast (the memcpy() was acting as a slow, implicit typecast anyway), and two local variables were created to make referencing the XFRM security context and selector information cleaner.

2008-01-28[IPSEC]: Remove nhoff from xfrm_inputHerbert Xu
The nhoff field isn't actually necessary in xfrm_input. For tunnel mode transforms we now throw away the output IP header so it makes no sense to fill in the nexthdr field. For transport mode we can now let the function transport_finish do the setting and it knows where the nexthdr field is. The only other thing that needs the nexthdr field to be set is the header extraction code. However, we can simply move the protocol extraction out of the generic header extraction. We want to minimise the amount of info we have to carry around between transforms as this simplifies the resumption process for async crypto.

2008-01-28[IPSEC]: Make x->lastused an unsigned longHerbert Xu

2008-01-28[IPSEC]: Move integrity stat collection into xfrm_inputHerbert Xu
Similar to the moving out of the replay processing on the output, this patch moves the integrity stat collectin from x->type->input into xfrm_input.

In future this error can be directly returned by the crypto layer once we switch to aead algorithms. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-01-28[IPSEC]: Store xfrm states in security path directlyHerbert Xu
As it is xfrm_input first collects a list of xfrm states on the stack before storing them in the packet's security path just before it returns. For async crypto, this construction presents an obstacle since we may need to leave the loop after each transform. In fact, it's much easier to just skip the stack completely and always store to the security path. This is proven by the fact that this patch actually shrinks the code.
