* net: add explicit logging and stat for neighbour table overflowRick Jones2015-08-101-4/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add an explicit neighbour table overflow message (ratelimited) and statistic to make diagnosing neighbour table overflows tractable in the wild. Diagnosing a neighbour table overflow can be quite difficult in the wild because there is no explicit dmesg logged. Callers to neighbour code seem to use net_dbg_ratelimit when the neighbour call fails which means the "base message" is not emitted and the callback suppressed messages from the ratelimiting can end-up juxtaposed with unrelated messages. Further, a forced garbage collection will increment a stat on each call whether it was successful in freeing-up a table entry or not, so that statistic is only a hint. So, add a net_info_ratelimited message and explicit statistic to the neighbour code. Signed-off-by: Rick Jones <rick.jones2@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The lockless lookups can return entry that is unlinked. Sometimes they get reference before last neigh_cleanup_and_release, sometimes they do not need reference. Later, any modification attempts may result in the following problems: 1. entry is not destroyed immediately because neigh_update can start the timer for dead entry, eg. on change to NUD_REACHABLE state. As result, entry lives for some time but is invisible and out of control. 2. __neigh_event_send can run in parallel with neigh_destroy while refcnt=0 but if timer is started and expired refcnt can reach 0 for second time leading to second neigh_destroy and possible crash. Thanks to Eric Dumazet and Ying Xue for their work and analyze on the __neigh_event_send change.

* | neigh: Better handling of transition to NUD_PROBE stateErik Kline2015-05-211-0/+3
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [1] When entering NUD_PROBE state via neigh_update(), perhaps received from userspace, correctly (re)initialize the probes count to zero. This is useful for forcing revalidation of a neighbor (for example if the host is attempting to do DNA [IPv4 4436, IPv6 6059]). [2] Notify listeners when a neighbor goes into NUD_PROBE state. By sending notifications on entry to NUD_PROBE state listeners get more timely warnings of imminent connectivity issues. The current notifications on entry to NUD_STALE have somewhat limited usefulness: NUD_STALE is a perfectly normal state, as is NUD_DELAY, whereas notifications on entry to NUD_FAILURE come after a neighbor reachability problem has been confirmed (typically after three probes).

* net: neighbour: Add mcast_resolicit to configure the number of multicast ↵YOSHIFUJI Hideaki/吉藤英明2015-03-211-4/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | resolicitations in PROBE state. We send unicast neighbor (ARP or NDP) solicitations ucast_probes times in PROBE state. Zhu Yanjun reported that some implementation does not reply against them and the entry will become FAILED, which is undesirable. We had been dealt with such nodes by sending multicast probes mcast_ solicit times after unicast probes in PROBE state. In 2003, I made a change not to send them to improve compatibility with IPv6 NDP. Let's introduce per-protocol per-interface sysctl knob "mcast_ reprobe" to configure the number of multicast (re)solicitation for reconfirmation in PROBE state. The default is 0, since we have been doing so for 10+ years.

* neigh: Factor out ___neigh_lookup_norefEric W. Biederman2015-03-041-15/+5Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While looking at the mpls code I found myself writing yet another version of neigh_lookup_noref. We currently have __ipv4_lookup_noref and __ipv6_lookup_noref. So to make my work a little easier and to make it a smidge easier to verify/maintain the mpls code in the future I stopped and wrote ___neigh_lookup_noref. Then I rewote __ipv4_lookup_noref and __ipv6_lookup_noref in terms of this new function. I tested my new version by verifying that the same code is generated in ip_finish_output2 and ip6_finish_output2 where these functions are inlined. To get to ___neigh_lookup_noref I added a new neighbour cache table function key_eq. So that the static size of the key would be available. I also added __neigh_lookup_noref for people who want to to lookup a neighbour table entry quickly but don't know which neibhgour table they are going to look up. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

* netlink: make nlmsg_end() and genlmsg_end() voidJohannes Berg2015-01-181-4/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Contrary to common expectations for an "int" return, these functions return only a positive value -- if used correctly they cannot even return 0 because the message header will necessarily be in the skb. This makes the very common pattern of if (genlmsg_end(...) < 0) { ... } be a whole bunch of dead code. Many places also simply do return nlmsg_end(...); and the caller is expected to deal with it. This also commonly (at least for me) causes errors, because it is very common to write if (my_function(...)) /* error condition */ and if my_function() does "return nlmsg_end()" this is of course wrong. Additionally, there's not a single place in the kernel that actually needs the message length returned, and if anyone needs it later then it'll be very easy to just use skb->len there. Remove this, and make the functions void. This removes a bunch of dead code as described above. The patch adds lines because I did - return nlmsg_end(...); + nlmsg_end(...); + return 0; I could have preserved all the function's return values by returning skb->len, but instead I've audited all the places calling the affected functions and found that none cared. A few places actually compared the return value with <= 0 in dump functionality, but that could just be changed to < 0 with no change in behaviour, so I opted for the more efficient version. One instance of the error I've made numerous times now is also present in net/phonet/pn_netlink.c in the route_dumpit() function - it didn't check for <0 or <=0 and thus broke out of the loop every single time. I've preserved this since it will (I think) have caused the messages to userspace to be formatted differently with just a single message for every SKB returned to userspace. It's possible that this isn't needed for the tools that actually use this, but I don't even know what they are so couldn't test that changing this behaviour would be acceptable.

* neighbour: fix base_reachable_time(_ms) not effective immediatly when changedJean-Francois Remy2015-01-141-0/+44
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 <jeff@melix.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit 7e98056964("ipv6: router reachability probing"), a router falls into NUD_FAILED will be probed. Now if function rt6_select() selects a router which neighbour state is NUD_FAILED, and at the same time function rt6_probe() changes the neighbour state to NUD_PROBE, then function dst_neigh_output() can directly send packets, but actually the neighbour still is unreachable. If we set nud_state to NUD_INCOMPLETE instead NUD_PROBE, packets will not be sent out until the neihbour is reachable. In addition, because the route should be probes with a single NS, so we must set neigh->probes to neigh_max_probes(), then the neigh timer timeout and function neigh_timer_handler() will not send other NS Messages.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the vlan code detects that the real device can do TX VLAN offloads in hardware, it tries to arrange for the real device's header_ops to be invoked directly. But it does so illegally, by simply hooking the real device's header_ops up to the VLAN device. This doesn't work because we will end up invoking a set of header_ops routines which expect a device type which matches the real device, but will see a VLAN device instead. Fix this by providing a pass-thru set of header_ops which will arrange to pass the proper real device instead. To facilitate this add a dev_rebuild_header(). There are implementations which provide a ->cache and ->create but not a ->rebuild (f.e. PLIP). So we need a helper function just like dev_hard_header() to avoid crashes. Use this helper in the one existing place where the header_ops->rebuild was being invoked, the neighbour code. With lots of help from Florian Westphal. Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | RFC 4191 states in 3.5: When a host avoids using any non-reachable router X and instead sends a data packet to another router Y, and the host would have used router X if router X were reachable, then the host SHOULD probe each such router X's reachability by sending a single Neighbor Solicitation to that router's address. A host MUST NOT probe a router's reachability in the absence of useful traffic that the host would have sent to the router if it were reachable. In any case, these probes MUST be rate-limited to no more than one per minute per router. Currently, when the neighbour corresponding to a router falls into NUD_FAILED, it's never considered again. Introduce a new rt6_nud_state value, RT6_NUD_FAIL_PROBE, which suggests the route should not be used but should be probed with a single NS. The probe is ratelimited by the existing code. To better distinguish meanings of the failure values, rename RT6_NUD_FAIL_SOFT to RT6_NUD_FAIL_DO_RR.

* | neigh: restore old behaviour of default parms valuesJiri Pirko2013-12-101-6/+68
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously inet devices were only constructed when addresses are added. Therefore the default neigh parms values they get are the ones at the time of these operations. Now that we're creating inet devices earlier, this changes the behaviour of default neigh parms values in an incompatible way (see bug #8519). This patch creates a compromise by setting the default values at the same point as before but only for those that have not been explicitly set by the user since the inet device's creation.

* net: neighbour: use source address of last enqueued packet for solicitationHannes Frederic Sowa2013-09-261-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we always use the first member of the arp_queue to determine the sender ip address of the arp packet (or in case of IPv6 - source address of the ndisc packet). This skb is fixed as long as the queue is not drained by a complete purge because of a timeout or by a successful response. If the first packet enqueued on the arp_queue is from a local application with a manually set source address and the to be discovered system does some kind of uRPF checks on the source address in the arp packet the resolving process hangs until a timeout and restarts. This hurts communication with the participating network node. This could be mitigated a bit if we use the latest enqueued skb's source address for the resolving process, which is not as static as the arp_queue's head. This change of the source address could result in better recovery of a failed solicitation. Cc: "David S.

* net: neighbour: Remove CONFIG_ARPDTim Gardner2013-09-041-2/+0Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This config option is superfluous in that it only guards a call to neigh_app_ns(). Enabling CONFIG_ARPD by default has no change in behavior. There will now be call to __neigh_notify() for each ARP resolution, which has no impact unless there is a user space daemon waiting to receive the notification, i.e., the case for which CONFIG_ARPD was designed anyways.
