      tcp: fix ssthresh and undo for consecutive short FRTO episodes · 0c9ab092
      Neal Cardwell authored
      Fix TCP FRTO logic so that it always notices when snd_una advances,
      indicating that any RTO after that point will be a new and distinct
      loss episode.
      
      Previously there was a very specific sequence that could cause FRTO to
      fail to notice a new loss episode had started:
      
      (1) RTO timer fires, enter FRTO and retransmit packet 1 in write queue
      (2) receiver ACKs packet 1
      (3) FRTO sends 2 more packets
      (4) RTO timer fires again (should start a new loss episode)
      
      The problem was in step (3) above, where tcp_process_loss() returned
      early (in the spot marked "Step 2.b"), so that it never got to the
      logic to clear icsk_retransmits. Thus icsk_retransmits stayed
      non-zero. Thus in step (4) tcp_enter_loss() would see the non-zero
      icsk_retransmits, decide that this RTO is not a new episode, and
      decide not to cut ssthresh and remember the current cwnd and ssthresh
      for undo.
      
      There were two main consequences to the bug that we have
      observed. First, ssthresh was not decreased in step (4). Second, when
      there was a series of such FRTO (1-4) sequences that happened to be
      followed by an FRTO undo, we would restore the cwnd and ssthresh from
      before the entire series started (instead of the cwnd and ssthresh
      from before the most recent RTO). This could result in cwnd and
      ssthresh being restored to values much bigger than the proper values.

      tcp: don't allow syn packets without timestamps to pass tcp_tw_recycle logic · a26552af
      Hannes Frederic Sowa authored
      tcp_tw_recycle heavily relies on tcp timestamps to build a per-host
      ordering of incoming connections and teardowns without the need to
      hold state on a specific quadruple for TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN, but only for
      the last measured RTO. To do so, we keep the last seen timestamp in a
      per-host indexed data structure and verify if the incoming timestamp
      in a connection request is strictly greater than the saved one during
      last connection teardown. Thus we can verify later on that no old data
      packets will be accepted by the new connection.
      
      During moving a socket to time-wait state we already verify if timestamps
      where seen on a connection. Only if that was the case we let the
      time-wait socket expire after the RTO, otherwise normal TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN
      will be used. But we don't verify this on incoming SYN packets. If a
      connection teardown was less than TCP_PAWS_MSL seconds in the past we
      cannot guarantee to not accept data packets from an old connection if
      no timestamps are present. We should drop this SYN packet. This patch
      closes this loophole.
      
      Please note, this patch does not make tcp_tw_recycle in any way more
      usable but only adds another safety check:
      Sporadic drops of SYN packets because of reordering in the network or
      in the socket backlog queues can happen. Users behing NAT trying to
      connect to a tcp_tw_recycle enabled server can get caught in blackholes
      and their connection requests may regullary get dropped because hosts
      behind an address translator don't have synchronized tcp timestamp clocks.
      tcp_tw_recycle cannot work if peers don't have tcp timestamps enabled.
      
      In general, use of tcp_tw_recycle is disadvised.

      Previously AF_INET6 sockets were incorrectly always using the IPv6

      sit: Fix ipip6_tunnel_lookup device matching criteria · bc8fc7b8
      Shmulik Ladkani authored
      As of 4fddbf5d ("sit: strictly restrict incoming traffic to tunnel link device"),
      when looking up a tunnel, tunnel's underlying interface (t->parms.link)
      is verified to match incoming traffic's ingress device.
      
      However the comparison was incorrectly based on skb->dev->iflink.
      
      Instead, dev->ifindex should be used, which correctly represents the
      interface from which the IP stack hands the ipip6 packets.
      
      This allows setting up sit tunnels bound to vlan interfaces (otherwise
      incoming ipip6 traffic on the vlan interface was dropped due to
      ipip6_tunnel_lookup match failure).

      net: xgene: Check negative return value of xgene_enet_get_ring_size() · 9b9ba821
      Tobias Klauser authored
      xgene_enet_get_ring_size() returns a negative value in case of an error,
      but its only caller in xgene_enet_create_desc_ring() currently uses the
      return value directly as u32. Instead, check for a negative value first and
      error out in case. Also move the call to xgene_enet_get_ring_size() before
      devm_kzalloc() so we don't need to free anything in the error path.
      
      This fixes the following issue reported by the Coverity Scanner:
