* [IPV6]: Address autoconfiguration does not work after device down/up cycleKristian Slavov2006-02-081-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If you set network interface down and up again, the IPv6 address autoconfiguration does not work. 'ip addr' shows that the link-local address is in tentative state. We don't even react to periodical router advertisements. During NETDEV_DOWN we clear IF_READY, and we don't set it back in NETDEV_UP. While starting to perform DAD on the link-local address, we notice that the device is not in IF_READY, and we abort autoconfiguration process (which would eventually send router solicitations).

| * [NETFILTER]: Fix possible overflow in netfilters do_replace()Kirill Korotaev2006-02-041-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | netfilter's do_replace() can overflow on addition within SMP_ALIGN() and/or on multiplication by NR_CPUS, resulting in a buffer overflow on the copy_from_user(). In practice, the overflow on addition is triggerable on all systems, whereas the multiplication one might require much physical memory to be present due to the check above. Either is sufficient to overwrite arbitrary amounts of kernel memory. I really hate adding the same check to all 4 versions of do_replace(), but the code is duplicate...

* | [PATCH] percpu data: only iterate over possible CPUsEric Dumazet2006-02-051-1/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | percpu_data blindly allocates bootmem memory to store NR_CPUS instances of cpudata, instead of allocating memory only for possible cpus. As a preparation for changing that, we need to convert various 0 -> NR_CPUS loops to use for_each_cpu(). (The above only applies to users of asm-generic/percpu.h. powerpc has gone it alone and is presently only allocating memory for present CPUs, so it's currently corrupting memory).

We should never touch the dst lock in softirq context. Since inet6_destroy_sock may be called from that context due to the asynchronous nature of sockets, we can't take the lock there. In fact this sk_dst_reset is totally redundant since all IPv6 sockets use inet_sock_destruct as their socket destructor which always cleans up the dst anyway. So the solution is to simply remove the call. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [IPV6]: Don't hold extra ref count in ipv6_ifa_notifyHerbert Xu2006-02-021-5/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the logic in ipv6_ifa_notify is to hold an extra reference count for addrconf dst's that get added to the routing table. Thus, when addrconf dst entries are taken out of the routing table, we need to drop that dst. However, addrconf dst entries may be removed from the routing table by means other than __ipv6_ifa_notify. So we're faced with the choice of either fixing up all places where addrconf dst entries are removed, or dropping the extra reference count altogether. I chose the latter because the ifp itself always holds a dst reference count of 1 while it's alive. This is dropped just before we kfree the ifp object. Therefore we know that in __ipv6_ifa_notify we will always hold that count. This bug was found by Eric W. Biederman. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [IPV6] tcp_v6_send_synack: release the destinationEric W. Biederman2006-01-311-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fix dst reference counting in tcp_v6_send_synack Analysis: Currently tcp_v6_send_synack is never called with a dst entry so dst always comes in as NULL. ip6_dst_lookup calls ip6_route_output which calls dst_hold before it returns the dst entry. Neither xfrm_lookup nor tcp_make_synack consume the dst entry so we still have a dst_entry with a bumped refrence count at the end of this function. Therefore we need to call dst_release just before we return just like tcp_v4_send_synack does. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [IPV6] MLDv2: fix change records when transitioning to/from inactiveDavid L Stevens2006-01-241-9/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The following patch fixes these problems in MLDv2: 1) Add/remove "delete" records for sending change reports when addition of a filter results in that filter transitioning to/from inactive. [same as recent IPv4 IGMPv3 fix] 2) Remove 2 redundant "group_type" checks (can't be IPV6_ADDR_ANY within that loop, so checks are always true) 3) change an is_in() "return 0" to "return type == MLD2_MODE_IS_INCLUDE". It should always be "0" to get here, but it improves code locality to not assume it, and if some race allowed otherwise, doing the check would return the correct result.

In an ideal world we would never have allowed this kind of copy+paste programming... but well, our world isn't (yet?) ideal. o introduce a new x_tables module o {ip,arp,ip6}_tables depend on this x_tables module o registration functions for tables, matches and targets are only wrappers around x_tables provided functions o all matches/targets that are used from ip_tables and ip6_tables are now implemented as xt_FOOBAR.c files and provide module aliases to ipt_FOOBAR and ip6t_FOOBAR o header files for xt_matches are in include/linux/netfilter/, include/linux/netfilter_{ipv4,ipv6} contains compatibility wrappers around the xt_FOOBAR.h headers Based on this patchset we're going to further unify the code, gradually getting rid of all the layer 3 specific assumptions.
