vxlan, gre, geneve: Set a large MTU on ovs-created tunnel devices

2016-06-24T17:18:18+00:00

[ Upstream commit 7e059158d57b79159eaf1f504825d19866ef2c42 ]

Prior to 4.3, openvswitch tunnel vports (vxlan, gre and geneve) could
transmit vxlan packets of any size, constrained only by the ability to
send out the resulting packets.  4.3 introduced netdevs corresponding
to tunnel vports.  These netdevs have an MTU, which limits the size of
a packet that can be successfully encapsulated.  The default MTU
values are low (1500 or less), which is awkwardly small in the context
of physical networks supporting jumbo frames, and leads to a
conspicuous change in behaviour for userspace.

Instead, set the MTU on openvswitch-created netdevs to be the relevant
maximum (i.e. the maximum IP packet size minus any relevant overhead),
effectively restoring the behaviour prior to 4.3.

switchdev: pass pointer to fib_info instead of copy

2016-06-24T17:18:16+00:00

[ Upstream commit da4ed55165d41b1073f9a476f1c18493e9bf8c8e ]

The problem is that fib_info->nh is [0] so the struct fib_info
allocation size depends on number of nexthops. If we just copy fib_info,
we do not copy the nexthops info and driver accesses memory which is not
ours.

Given the fact that fib4 does not defer operations and therefore it does
not need copy, just pass the pointer down to drivers as it was done
before.

net_sched: update hierarchical backlog too

2016-05-19T00:06:39+00:00

[ Upstream commit 2ccccf5fb43ff62b2b96cc58d95fc0b3596516e4 ]

When the bottom qdisc decides to, for example, drop some packet,
it calls qdisc_tree_decrease_qlen() to update the queue length
for all its ancestors, we need to update the backlog too to
keep the stats on root qdisc accurate.

ipvs: drop first packet to redirect conntrack

2016-05-11T09:21:09+00:00

commit f719e3754ee2f7275437e61a6afd520181fdd43b upstream.

Jiri Bohac is reporting for a problem where the attempt
to reschedule existing connection to another real server
needs proper redirect for the conntrack used by the IPVS
connection. For example, when IPVS connection is created
to NAT-ed real server we alter the reply direction of
conntrack. If we later decide to select different real
server we can not alter again the conntrack. And if we
expire the old connection, the new connection is left
without conntrack.

So, the only way to redirect both the IPVS connection and
the Netfilter's conntrack is to drop the SYN packet that
hits existing connection, to wait for the next jiffie
to expire the old connection and its conntrack and to rely
on client's retransmission to create new connection as
usually.

Jiri Bohac provided a fix that drops all SYNs on rescheduling,
I extended his patch to do such drops only for connections
that use conntrack. Here is the original report from Jiri Bohac:

Since commit dc7b3eb900aa ("ipvs: Fix reuse connection if real server
is dead"), new connections to dead servers are redistributed
immediately to new servers.  The old connection is expired using
ip_vs_conn_expire_now() which sets the connection timer to expire
immediately.

However, before the timer callback, ip_vs_conn_expire(), is run
to clean the connection's conntrack entry, the new redistributed
connection may already be established and its conntrack removed
instead.

Fix this by dropping the first packet of the new connection
instead, like we do when the destination server is not available.
The timer will have deleted the old conntrack entry long before
the first packet of the new connection is retransmitted.

bonding: fix bond_get_stats()

2016-04-20T06:42:04+00:00

[ Upstream commit fe30937b65354c7fec244caebbdaae68e28ca797 ]

bond_get_stats() can be called from rtnetlink (with RTNL held)
or from /proc/net/dev seq handler (with RCU held)

The logic added in commit 5f0c5f73e5ef ("bonding: make global bonding
stats more reliable") kind of assumed only one cpu could run there.

If multiple threads are reading /proc/net/dev, stats can be really
messed up after a while.

A second problem is that some fields are 32bit, so we need to properly
handle the wrap around problem.

Given that RTNL is not always held, we need to use
bond_for_each_slave_rcu().

cfg80211/wext: fix message ordering

2016-03-16T15:42:59+00:00

commit cb150b9d23be6ee7f3a0fff29784f1c5b5ac514d upstream.

Since cfg80211 frequently takes actions from its netdev notifier
call, wireless extensions messages could still be ordered badly
since the wext netdev notifier, since wext is built into the
kernel, runs before the cfg80211 netdev notifier. For example,
the following can happen:

5: wlan1:  mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN group default
    link/ether 02:00:00:00:01:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
5: wlan1: 
    link/ether

when setting the interface down causes the wext message.

To also fix this, export the wireless_nlevent_flush() function
and also call it from the cfg80211 notifier.

tcp/dccp: fix another race at listener dismantle

To properly fix this issue, inet_csk_reqsk_queue_add() needs
to return to its callers if the child as been queued
into accept queue.

We also need to make sure listener is still there before
calling sk->sk_data_ready(), by holding a reference on it,
since the reference carried by the child can disappear as
soon as the child is put on accept queue.

tcp: do not drop syn_recv on all icmp reports

[ Upstream commit 9cf7490360bf2c46a16b7525f899e4970c5fc144 ]

Petr Novopashenniy reported that ICMP redirects on SYN_RECV sockets
were leading to RST.

This is of course incorrect.

A specific list of ICMP messages should be able to drop a SYN_RECV.

For instance, a REDIRECT on SYN_RECV shall be ignored, as we do
not hold a dst per SYN_RECV pseudo request.
