User space is currently sending a OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE for both flow
and packet messages. This leads to an out-of-bounds access in
ovs_packet_cmd_execute() because OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE >
OVS_PACKET_ATTR_MAX.Introduce a new OVS_PACKET_ATTR_PROBE with the same numeric value
as OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE to grow the range of accepted packet attributes
while maintaining to be binary compatible with existing OVS binaries.Fixes: 05da589 ("openvswitch: Add support for OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE.")

When IPV4 support is disabled, we cannot call arp_send from
the bridge code, which would result in a kernel link error:net/built-in.o: In function `br_handle_frame_finish':

When setting base_reachable_time or base_reachable_time_ms on a
specific interface through sysctl or netlink, the reachable_time
value is not updated.This means that neighbour entries will continue to be updated using the
old value until it is recomputed in neigh_period_work (which
recomputes the value every 300*HZ).
On systems with HZ equal to 1000 for instance, it means 5mins before
the change is effective.This patch changes this behavior by recomputing reachable_time after
each set on base_reachable_time or base_reachable_time_ms.
The new value will become effective the next time the neighbour's timer
is triggered.Changes are made in two places: the netlink code for set and the sysctl
handling code. For sysctl, I use a proc_handler. The ipv6 network
code does provide its own handler but it already refreshes
reachable_time correctly so it's not an issue.
Any other user of neighbour which provide its own handlers must
refresh reachable_time.Signed-off-by: Jean-Francois Remy

In commit 58dc55f25631178ee74cd27185956a8f7dcb3e32 ("tipc: use generic
SKB list APIs to manage link transmission queue") we replace all list
traversal loops with the macros skb_queue_walk() or
skb_queue_walk_safe(). While the previous loops were based on the
assumption that the list was NULL-terminated, the standard macros
stop when the iterator reaches the list head, which is non-NULL.In the function bclink_retransmit_pkt() this macro replacement has
lead to a bug. When we receive a BCAST STATE_MSG we unconditionally
call the function bclink_retransmit_pkt(), whether there really is
anything to retransmit or not, assuming that the sequence number
comparisons will lead to the correct behavior. However, if the
transmission queue is empty, or if there are no eligible buffers in
the transmission queue, we will by mistake pass the list head pointer
to the function tipc_link_retransmit(). Since the list head is not a
valid sk_buff, this leads to a crash.In this commit we fix this by only calling tipc_link_retransmit()
if we actually found eligible buffers in the transmission queue.Reviewed-by: Ying Xue

====================
netfilter/ipvs fixes for netThe following patchset contains netfilter/ipvs fixes, they are:
1) Small fix for the FTP helper in IPVS, a diff variable may be left
unset when CONFIG_IP_VS_IPV6 is set. Patch from Dan Carpenter.2) Fix nf_tables port NAT in little endian archs, patch from leroy
christophe.3) Fix race condition between conntrack confirmation and flush from
userspace. This is the second reincarnation to resolve this problem.4) Make sure inner messages in the batch come with the nfnetlink header.
5) Relax strict check from nfnetlink_bind() that may break old userspace
applications using all 1s group mask.6) Schedule removal of chains once no sets and rules refer to them in
the new nf_tables ruleset flush command. Reported by Asbjoern Sloth

Due to a misplaced parenthesis, the expression
(unlikely(offset) < 0),
which expands to
(__builtin_expect(!!(offset), 0) < 0),
never evaluates to true. Therefore, when sending packets with
PF_PACKET/SOCK_DGRAM, packet_snd() does not abort as intended
if the creation of the layer 2 header fails.Spotted by Coverity - CID 1259975 ("Operands don't affect result").

A struct xdr_stream at a page boundary might point to the end of one
page or the beginning of the next, but xdr_truncate_encode isn't
prepared to handle the former.This can cause corruption of NFSv4 READDIR replies in the case that a
readdir entry that would have exceeded the client's dircount/maxcount
limit would have ended exactly on a 4k page boundary. You're more
likely to hit this case on large directories.Other xdr_truncate_encode callers are probably also affected.

Commit 5195c14c8b27c ("netfilter: conntrack: fix race in
__nf_conntrack_confirm against get_next_corpse") aimed to resolve the
race condition between the confirmation (packet path) and the flush
command (from control plane). However, it introduced a crash when
several packets race to add a new conntrack, which seems easier to
reproduce when nf_queue is in place.Fix this race, in __nf_conntrack_confirm(), by removing the CT
from unconfirmed list before checking the DYING bit. In case
race occured, re-add the CT to the dying listThis patch also changes the verdict from NF_ACCEPT to NF_DROP when
we lose race. Basically, the confirmation happens for the first packet
that we see in a flow. If you just invoked conntrack -F once (which
should be the common case), then this is likely to be the first packet
of the flow (unless you already called flush anytime soon in the past).
This should be hard to trigger, but better drop this packet, otherwise
we leave things in inconsistent state since the destination will likely
reply to this packet, but it will find no conntrack, unless the origin
retransmits.The change of the verdict has been discussed in:

This patch fixes a potential memory leak which can occur once an
originator times out. On timeout the according global translation table
entry might not get purged correctly. Furthermore, the non purged TT
entry will cause its orig-node to leak, too. Which additionally can lead
to the new multicast optimization feature not kicking in because of a
therefore bogus counter.In detail: The batadv_tt_global_entry->orig_list holds the reference to
the orig-node. Usually this reference is released after
BATADV_PURGE_TIMEOUT through: _batadv_purge_orig()->
batadv_purge_orig_node()->batadv_update_route()->_batadv_update_route()->
batadv_tt_global_del_orig() which purges this global tt entry and
releases the reference to the orig-node.However, if between two batadv_purge_orig_node() calls the orig-node
timeout grew to 2*BATADV_PURGE_TIMEOUT then this call path isn't
reached. Instead the according orig-node is removed from the
originator hash in _batadv_purge_orig(), the batadv_update_route()
part is skipped and won't be reached anymore.Fixing the issue by moving batadv_tt_global_del_orig() out of the rcu
callback.Signed-off-by: Linus Lüssing

When purging an orig_node we should only decrease counter tracking the
number of nodes without multicast optimizations support if it was
increased through this orig_node before.A not yet quite initialized orig_node (meaning it did not have its turn
in the mcast-tvlv handler so far) which gets purged would not adhere to
this and will lead to a counter imbalance.Fixing this by adding a check whether the orig_node is mcast-initalized
before decreasing the counter in the mcast-orig_node-purging routine.Introduced by 60432d756cf06e597ef9da511402dd059b112447

A miscounting of nodes having multicast optimizations enabled can lead
to multicast packet loss in the following scenario:If the first OGM a node receives from another one has no multicast

that we could safely use multicast optimizations.Fixings this by increasing the counter if the initial OGM has the

Currently it can happen that the reception of an OGM from a new
originator is not being accepted. More precisely it can happen that
an originator struct gets allocated and initialized
(batadv_orig_node_new()), even the TQ gets calculated and set correctly
(batadv_iv_ogm_calc_tq()) but still the periodic orig_node purging
thread will decide to delete it if it has a chance to jump between
these two function calls.This is because batadv_orig_node_new() initializes the last_seen value
to zero and its caller (batadv_iv_ogm_orig_get()) makes it visible to
other threads by adding it to the hash table already.
batadv_iv_ogm_calc_tq() will set the last_seen variable to the correct,
current time a few lines later but if the purging thread jumps in between
that it will think that the orig_node timed out and will wrongly
schedule it for deletion already.If the purging interval is the same as the originator interval (which is
the default: 1 second), then this game can continue for several rounds
until the random OGM jitter added enough difference between these
two (in tests, two to about four rounds seemed common).Fixing this by initializing the last_seen variable of an orig_node
to the current time before adding it to the hash table.Signed-off-by: Linus Lüssing

Thomas Jarosch reported IPsec TCP stalls when a PMTU event occurs.
In fact the problem was completely unrelated to IPsec. The bug is
also reproducible if you just disable TSO/GSO.The problem is that when the MSS goes down, existing queued packet
on the TX queue that have not been transmitted yet all look like
TSO packets and get treated as such.This then triggers a bug where tcp_mss_split_point tells us to
generate a zero-sized packet on the TX queue. Once that happens
we're screwed because the zero-sized packet can never be removed

It's causing severe userspace breakage. Namely, all the utilities from
wireless-utils which are relying on CONFIG_WEXT (which means tools like
'iwconfig', 'iwlist', etc) are not working anymore. There is a 'iw'
utility in newer wireless-tools, which is supposed to be a replacement
for all the "deprecated" binaries, but it's far away from being
massively adopted.Please see [1] for example of the userspace breakage this is causing.
In addition to that, Larry Finger reports [2] that this patch is also

Netlink families can exist in multiple namespaces, and for the most
part multicast subscriptions are per network namespace. Thus it only
makes sense to have bind/unbind notifications per network namespace.To achieve this, pass the network namespace of a given client socket
to the bind/unbind functions.Also do this in generic netlink, and there also make sure that any
bind for multicast groups that only exist in init_net is rejected.
This isn't really a problem if it is accepted since a client in a
different namespace will never receive any notifications from such
a group, but it can confuse the family if not rejected (it's also
possible to silently (without telling the family) accept it, but it
would also have to be ignored on unbind so families that take any
kind of action on bind/unbind won't do unnecessary work for invalid
clients like that.Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

Currently, netlink_unbind() is only called when the socket

netlink_has_listeners() in there.)Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

The code is now confusing to read - first in one function down
(netlink_remove) any group subscriptions are implicitly removed
by calling __sk_del_bind_node(), but the subscriber database is
only updated far later by calling netlink_update_listeners().Move the latter call to just after removal from the list so it
is easier to follow the code.This also enables moving the locking inside the kernel-socket
conditional, which improves the normal socket destruction path.Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

There's no point to force the caller to know about the internal
genl_sock to use inside struct net, just have them pass the network
namespace. This doesn't really change code generation since it's
an inline, but makes the caller less magic - there's never any
reason to pass another socket.Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

The new name is more expressive - this isn't a generic unbind
function but rather only a little undo helper for use only in
netlink_bind().Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

Here's one more bluetooth pull request for 3.19. We've got two fixes:- Fix for accepting connections with old user space versions of BlueZ
- Fix for Bluetooth controllers that don't have a public addressBoth of these are regressions that were introduced in 3.17, so the
appropriate Cc: stable annotations are provided.Please let me know if there are any issues pulling. Thanks.

GSO isn't the only offload feature with restrictions that
potentially can't be expressed with the current features mechanism.
Checksum is another although it's a general issue that could in
theory apply to anything. Even if it may be possible to
implement these restrictions in other ways, it can result in
duplicate code or inefficient per-packet behavior.This generalizes ndo_gso_check so that drivers can remove any
features that don't make sense for a given packet, similar to
netif_skb_features(). It also converts existing driver
restrictions to the new format, completing the work that was
done to support tunnel protocols since the issues apply to
checksums as well.By actually removing features from the set that are used to do
offloading, it solves another problem with the existing
interface. In these cases, GSO would run with the original set
of features and not do anything because it appears that
segmentation is not required.CC: Tom Herbert

When using VXLAN tunnels and a sky2 device, I have experienced
checksum failures of the following type:[ 4297.761899] eth0: hw csum failure
[...]
[ 4297.765223] Call Trace:
[ 4297.765224] [] dump_stack+0x46/0x58
[ 4297.765235] [] netdev_rx_csum_fault+0x42/0x50
[ 4297.765238] [] ? skb_push+0x40/0x40
[ 4297.765240] [] __skb_checksum_complete+0xbc/0xd0

[ 4297.765246] [] ? ip_rcv_finish+0x360/0x360These are reliably reproduced in a network topology of:
container:eth0 == host(OVS VXLAN on VLAN) == bond0 == eth0 (sky2) -> switch
When VXLAN encapsulated traffic is received from a similarly
configured peer, the above warning is generated in the receive
processing of the encapsulated packet. Note that the warning is
associated with the container eth0.The skbs from sky2 have ip_summed set to CHECKSUM_COMPLETE, and
because the packet is an encapsulated Ethernet frame, the checksum
generated by the hardware includes the inner protocol and Ethernet
headers.The receive code is careful to update the skb->csum, except in
__dev_forward_skb, as called by dev_forward_skb. __dev_forward_skb
calls eth_type_trans, which in turn calls skb_pull_inline(skb, ETH_HLEN)
to skip over the Ethernet header, but does not update skb->csum when
doing so.This patch resolves the problem by adding a call to
skb_postpull_rcsum to update the skb->csum after the call to
eth_type_trans.Signed-off-by: Jay Vosburgh

net/openvswitch/vport-gre.c:188:5-11: inconsistent IS_ERR and PTR_ERR, PTR_ERR on line 189
PTR_ERR should access the value just tested by IS_ERR
Semantic patch information:
There can be false positives in the patch case, where it is the call
IS_ERR that is wrong.Generated by: scripts/coccinelle/tests/odd_ptr_err.cocci
