Linus Lüssing authored
Currently if there is no listener for a certain group then IPv6 packets for that group are flooded on all ports, even though there might be no host and router interested in it on a port. With this commit they are only forwarded to ports with a multicast router. Just like commit bd4265fe ("bridge: Only flood unregistered groups to routers") did for IPv4, let's do the same for IPv6 with the same reasoning.

Similarly as we do in MLDv2 queries, set a forged MLDv1 query with 0 ms mld_maxdelay to minimum timer shot time of 1 jiffies.

RFC3810, 10. Security Considerations says under subsection 10.1. Query Message: A forged Version 1 Query message will put MLDv2 listeners on that link in MLDv1 Host Compatibility Mode. This scenario can be avoided by providing MLDv2 hosts with a configuration option to ignore Version 1 messages completely. Hence, implement a MLDv2-only mode that will ignore MLDv1 traffic: echo 2 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/ethX/force_mld_version or echo 2 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/force_mld_version Note that <all> device has a higher precedence as it was previously also the case in the macro MLD_V1_SEEN() that would "short-circuit" if condition on <all> case.

i) RFC3810, 9.2. Query Interval [QI] says: The Query Interval variable denotes the interval between General Queries sent by the Querier. Default value: 125 seconds. [...] ii) RFC3810, 9.3. Query Response Interval [QRI] says: The Maximum Response Delay used to calculate the Maximum Response Code inserted into the periodic General Queries. Default value: 10000 (10 seconds) [...] The number of seconds represented by the [Query Response Interval] must be less than the [Query Interval]. iii) RFC3810, 9.12. Older Version Querier Present Timeout [OVQPT] says: The Older Version Querier Present Timeout is the time-out for transitioning a host back to MLDv2 Host Compatibility Mode. When an MLDv1 query is received, MLDv2 hosts set their Older Version Querier Present Timer to [Older Version Querier Present Timeout]. This value MUST be ([Robustness Variable] times (the [Query Interval] in the last Query received)) plus ([Query Response Interval]). Hence, on *default* the timeout results in: [RV] = 2, [QI] = 125sec, [QRI] = 10sec [OVQPT] = [RV] * [QI] + [QRI] = 260sec Having that said, we currently calculate [OVQPT] (here given as 'switchback' variable) as ... switchback = (idev->mc_qrv + 1) * max_delay RFC3810, 9.12. says "the [Query Interval] in the last Query received". In section "9.14. Configuring timers", it is said: This section is meant to provide advice to network administrators on how to tune these settings to their network. Ambitious router implementations might tune these settings dynamically based upon changing characteristics of the network. [...] iv) RFC38010, 9.14.2. Query Interval: The overall level of periodic MLD traffic is inversely proportional to the Query Interval. A longer Query Interval results in a lower overall level of MLD traffic. The value of the Query Interval MUST be equal to or greater than the Maximum Response Delay used to calculate the Maximum Response Code inserted in General Query messages. I assume that was why switchback is calculated as is (3 * max_delay), although this setting seems to be meant for routers only to configure their [QI] interval for non-default intervals. So usage here like this is clearly wrong. Concluding, the current behaviour in IPv6's multicast code is not conform to the RFC as switch back is calculated wrongly. That is, it has a too small value, so MLDv2 hosts switch back again to MLDv2 way too early, i.e. ~30secs instead of ~260secs on default. Hence, introduce necessary helper functions and fix this up properly as it should be. Introduced in 06da9228 ("[IPV6]: Add MLDv2 support."). Credits to Hannes Frederic Sowa who also had a hand in this as well. Also thanks to Hangbin Liu who did initial testing.

net: sctp: Fix data chunk fragmentation for MTU values which are not multiple of 4 Initially the problem was observed with ipsec, but later it became clear that SCTP data chunk fragmentation algorithm has problems with MTU values which are not multiple of 4. Test program was used which just transmits 2000 bytes long packets to other host. tcpdump was used to observe re-fragmentation in IP layer after SCTP already fragmented data chunks. With MTU 1500: 12:54:34.082904 IP (tos 0x2,ECT(0), ttl 64, id 0, offset 0, flags [DF], proto SCTP (132), length 1500) 10.151.38.153.39303 > 10.151.24.91.54321: sctp (1) [DATA] (B) [TSN: 2366088589] [SID: 0] [SSEQ 1] [PPID 0x0] 12:54:34.082933 IP (tos 0x2,ECT(0), ttl 64, id 0, offset 0, flags [DF], proto SCTP (132), length 596) 10.151.38.153.39303 > 10.151.24.91.54321: sctp (1) [DATA] (E) [TSN: 2366088590] [SID: 0] [SSEQ 1] [PPID 0x0] 12:54:34.090576 IP (tos 0x2,ECT(0), ttl 63, id 0, offset 0, flags [DF], proto SCTP (132), length 48) 10.151.24.91.54321 > 10.151.38.153.39303: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 2366088590] [a_rwnd 79920] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] With MTU 1499: 13:02:49.955220 IP (tos 0x2,ECT(0), ttl 64, id 48215, offset 0, flags [+], proto SCTP (132), length 1492) 10.151.38.153.39084 > 10.151.24.91.54321: sctp[|sctp] 13:02:49.955249 IP (tos 0x2,ECT(0), ttl 64, id 48215, offset 1472, flags [none], proto SCTP (132), length 28) 10.151.38.153 > 10.151.24.91: ip-proto-132 13:02:49.955262 IP (tos 0x2,ECT(0), ttl 64, id 0, offset 0, flags [DF], proto SCTP (132), length 600) 10.151.38.153.39084 > 10.151.24.91.54321: sctp (1) [DATA] (E) [TSN: 404355346] [SID: 0] [SSEQ 1] [PPID 0x0] 13:02:49.956770 IP (tos 0x2,ECT(0), ttl 63, id 0, offset 0, flags [DF], proto SCTP (132), length 48) 10.151.24.91.54321 > 10.151.38.153.39084: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 404355346] [a_rwnd 79920] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] Here problem in data portion limit calculation leads to re-fragmentation in IP, which is sub-optimal. The problem is max_data initial value, which doesn't take into account the fact, that data chunk must be padded to 4-bytes boundary. It's enough to correct max_data, because all later adjustments are correctly aligned to 4-bytes boundary. After the fix is applied, everything is fragmented correctly for uneven MTUs: 15:16:27.083881 IP (tos 0x2,ECT(0), ttl 64, id 0, offset 0, flags [DF], proto SCTP (132), length 1496) 10.151.38.153.53417 > 10.151.24.91.54321: sctp (1) [DATA] (B) [TSN: 3077098183] [SID: 0] [SSEQ 1] [PPID 0x0] 15:16:27.083907 IP (tos 0x2,ECT(0), ttl 64, id 0, offset 0, flags [DF], proto SCTP (132), length 600) 10.151.38.153.53417 > 10.151.24.91.54321: sctp (1) [DATA] (E) [TSN: 3077098184] [SID: 0] [SSEQ 1] [PPID 0x0] 15:16:27.085640 IP (tos 0x2,ECT(0), ttl 63, id 0, offset 0, flags [DF], proto SCTP (132), length 48) 10.151.24.91.54321 > 10.151.38.153.53417: sctp (1) [SACK] [cum ack 3077098184] [a_rwnd 79920] [#gap acks 0] [#dup tsns 0] The bug was there for years already, but - is a performance issue, the packets are still transmitted - doesn't show up with default MTU 1500, but possibly with ipsec (MTU 1438) Signed-off-by: Alexander Sverdlin <alexander.sverdlin@nsn.com> Acked-by: Vlad Yasevich <vyasevich@gmail.com> Acked-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Solution: ========= - Synchronize linux's `include/uapi/linux/in6.h' with glibc's `inet/netinet/in.h'. - Synchronize glibc's `inet/netinet/in.h with linux's `include/uapi/linux/in6.h'. - Allow including the headers in either other. - First header included defines the structures and macros. Details: ======== The kernel promises not to break the UAPI ABI so I don't see why we can't just have the two userspace headers coordinate? If you include the kernel headers first you get those, and if you include the glibc headers first you get those, and the following patch arranges a coordination and synchronization between the two. Let's handle `include/uapi/linux/in6.h' from linux, and `inet/netinet/in.h' from glibc and ensure they compile in any order and preserve the required ABI. These two patches pass the following compile tests: cat >> test1.c <<EOF int main (void) { return 0; } EOF gcc -c test1.c cat >> test2.c <<EOF int main (void) { return 0; } EOF gcc -c test2.c One wrinkle is that the kernel has a different name for one of the members in ipv6_mreq. In the kernel patch we create a macro to cover the uses of the old name, and while that's not entirely clean it's one of the best solutions (aside from an anonymous union which has other issues). I've reviewed the code and it looks to me like the ABI is assured and everything matches on both sides. Notes: - You want netinet/in.h to include bits/in.h as early as possible, but it needs in_addr so define in_addr early. - You want bits/in.h included as early as possible so you can use the linux specific code to define __USE_KERNEL_DEFS based on the _UAPI_* macro definition and use those to cull in.h. - glibc was missing IPPROTO_MH, added here. Compile tested and inspected.

Packets reaching SYNPROXY were default dropped, as they were most likely invalid (given the recommended state matching). This patch, changes SYNPROXY target to let packets, not consumed, continue being processed by the stack. This will be more in line other target modules.

Its seems Patrick missed to incoorporate some of my requested changes during review v2 of SYNPROXY netfilter module. Which were, to avoid SYN+ACK packets to enter the path, meant for the ACK packet from the client (from the 3WHS). Further there were a bug in ip6t_SYNPROXY.c, for matching SYN packets that didn't exclude the ACK flag. Go a step further with SYN packet/flag matching by excluding flags ACK+FIN+RST, in both IPv4 and IPv6 modules. The intented usage of SYNPROXY is as follows: (gracefully describing usage in commit) iptables -t raw -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 --syn -j NOTRACK iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -m state UNTRACKED,INVALID \ -j SYNPROXY --sack-perm --timestamp --mss 1480 --wscale 7 --ecn echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_tcp_loose This does filter SYN flags early, for packets in the UNTRACKED state, but packets in the INVALID state with other TCP flags could still reach the module, thus this stricter flag matching is still needed.

After commit 0c24604b (tcp: implement RFC 5961 4.2), we no longer send RSTs in response to SYNs. We can remove the check and processing on the return value of tcp_rcv_established(). We also fix jtcp_rcv_established() in tcp_probe.c to match that of tcp_rcv_established(). Signed-off-by: Vijay Subramanian <subramanian.vijay@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

With recent changes in tcp_probe module (e.g. f925d0a6 ("net: tcp_probe: add IPv6 support")) we also need to take into account that tbuf needs to be updated as format string will be further expanded. tbuf sits on the stack in tcpprobe_read() function that is invoked when user space reads procfs file /proc/net/tcpprobe, hence not fast path as in jtcp_rcv_established(). Having a size similarly as in sctp_probe module of 256 bytes is fully sufficient for that, we need theoretical maximum of 252 bytes otherwise we could get truncated.
