netfilter: conntrack: allow insertion of clashing entries
This patch further relaxes the need to drop an skb due to a clash with
an existing conntrack entry.
Current clash resolution handles the case where the clash occurs between
two identical entries (distinct nf_conn objects with same tuples), i.e.:
Original Reply
existing: 10.2.3.4:42 -> 10.8.8.8:53 10.2.3.4:42 <- 10.0.0.6:5353
clashing: 10.2.3.4:42 -> 10.8.8.8:53 10.2.3.4:42 <- 10.0.0.6:5353
... existing handling will discard the unconfirmed clashing entry and
makes skb->_nfct point to the existing one. The skb can then be
processed normally just as if the clash would not have existed in the
first place.
For other clashes, the skb needs to be dropped.
This frequently happens with DNS resolvers that send A and AAAA queries
back-to-back when NAT rules are present that cause packets to get
different DNAT transformations applied, for example:
-m statistics --mode random ... -j DNAT --dnat-to 10.0.0.6:5353
-m statistics --mode random ... -j DNAT --dnat-to 10.0.0.7:5353
In this case the A or AAAA query is dropped which incurs a costly
delay during name resolution.
This patch also allows this collision type:
Original Reply
existing: 10.2.3.4:42 -> 10.8.8.8:53 10.2.3.4:42 <- 10.0.0.6:5353
clashing: 10.2.3.4:42 -> 10.8.8.8:53 10.2.3.4:42 <- 10.0.0.7:5353
In this case, clash is in original direction -- the reply direction
is still unique.
The change makes it so that when the 2nd colliding packet is received,
the clashing conntrack is tagged with new IPS_NAT_CLASH_BIT, gets a fixed
1 second timeout and is inserted in the reply direction only.
The entry is hidden from 'conntrack -L', it will time out quickly
and it can be early dropped because it will never progress to the
ASSURED state.
To avoid special-casing the delete code path to special case
the ORIGINAL hlist_nulls node, a new helper, "hlist_nulls_add_fake", is
added so hlist_nulls_del() will work.
Example:
CPU A: CPU B:
1. 10.2.3.4:42 -> 10.8.8.8:53 (A)
2. 10.2.3.4:42 -> 10.8.8.8:53 (AAAA)
3. Apply DNAT, reply changed to 10.0.0.6
4. 10.2.3.4:42 -> 10.8.8.8:53 (AAAA)
5. Apply DNAT, reply changed to 10.0.0.7
6. confirm/commit to conntrack table, no collisions
7. commit clashing entry
Reply comes in:
10.2.3.4:42 <- 10.0.0.6:5353 (A)
-> Finds a conntrack, DNAT is reversed & packet forwarded to 10.2.3.4:42
10.2.3.4:42 <- 10.0.0.7:5353 (AAAA)
-> Finds a conntrack, DNAT is reversed & packet forwarded to 10.2.3.4:42
The conntrack entry is deleted from table, as it has the NAT_CLASH
bit set.
In case of a retransmit from ORIGINAL dir, all further packets will get
the DNAT transformation to 10.0.0.6.
I tried to come up with other solutions but they all have worse
problems.
Alternatives considered were:
1. Confirm ct entries at allocation time, not in postrouting.
a. will cause uneccesarry work when the skb that creates the
conntrack is dropped by ruleset.
b. in case nat is applied, ct entry would need to be moved in
the table, which requires another spinlock pair to be taken.
c. breaks the 'unconfirmed entry is private to cpu' assumption:
we would need to guard all nfct->ext allocation requests with
ct->lock spinlock.
2. Make the unconfirmed list a hash table instead of a pcpu list.
Shares drawback c) of the first alternative.
3. Document this is expected and force users to rearrange their
ruleset (e.g. by using "-m cluster" instead of "-m statistics").
nft has the 'jhash' expression which can be used instead of 'numgen'.
Major drawback: doesn't fix what I consider a bug, not very realistic
and I believe its reasonable to have the existing rulesets to 'just
work'.
4. Document this is expected and force users to steer problematic
packets to the same CPU -- this would serialize the "allocate new
conntrack entry/nat table evaluation/perform nat/confirm entry", so
no race can occur. Similar drawback to 3.
Another advantage of this patch compared to 1) and 2) is that there are
no changes to the hot path; things are handled in the udp tracker and
the clash resolution path.

tcp/dccp: fix possible race __inet_lookup_established()
Michal Kubecek and Firo Yang did a very nice analysis of crashes happening in __inet_lookup_established(). Since a TCP socket can go from TCP_ESTABLISH to TCP_LISTEN (via a close()/socket()/listen() cycle) without a RCU grace period, I should not have changed listeners linkage in their hash table. They must use the nulls protocol (Documentation/RCU/rculist_nulls.txt), so that a lookup can detect a socket in a hash list was moved in another one. Since we added code in commit |

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

bpf: convert htab map to hlist_nulls
when all map elements are pre-allocated one cpu can delete and reuse htab_elem
while another cpu is still walking the hlist. In such case the lookup may
miss the element. Convert hlist to hlist_nulls to avoid such scenario.
When bucket lock is taken there is no need to take such precautions,
so only convert map_lookup and map_get_next to nulls.
The race window is extremely small and only reproducible with explicit
udelay() inside lookup_nulls_elem_raw()
Similar to hlist add hlist_nulls_for_each_entry_safe() and
hlist_nulls_entry_safe() helpers.

soreuseport: fix ordering for mixed v4/v6 sockets
With the SO_REUSEPORT socket option, it is possible to create sockets
in the AF_INET and AF_INET6 domains which are bound to the same IPv4 address.
This is only possible with SO_REUSEPORT and when not using IPV6_V6ONLY on
the AF_INET6 sockets.
Prior to the commits referenced below, an incoming IPv4 packet would
always be routed to a socket of type AF_INET when this mixed-mode was used.
After those changes, the same packet would be routed to the most recently
bound socket (if this happened to be an AF_INET6 socket, it would
have an IPv4 mapped IPv6 address).
The change in behavior occurred because the recent SO_REUSEPORT optimizations
short-circuit the socket scoring logic as soon as they find a match. They
did not take into account the scoring logic that favors AF_INET sockets
over AF_INET6 sockets in the event of a tie.
To fix this problem, this patch changes the insertion order of AF_INET
and AF_INET6 addresses in the TCP and UDP socket lists when the sockets
have SO_REUSEPORT set. AF_INET sockets will be inserted at the head of the
list and AF_INET6 sockets with SO_REUSEPORT set will always be inserted at
the tail of the list. This will force AF_INET sockets to always be
considered first.

rcu: Disable lockdep checking in RCU list-traversal primitives
The theory is that use of bare rcu_dereference() is more prone to error than use of the RCU list-traversal primitives.

rcu: Introduce hlist_nulls variant of hlist
hlist uses NULL value to finish a chain.
hlist_nulls variant use the low order bit set to 1 to signal an end-of-list marker.
This allows to store many different end markers, so that some RCU lockless
algos (used in TCP/UDP stack for example) can save some memory barriers in
fast paths.
Two new files are added :
include/linux/list_nulls.h
- mimics hlist part of include/linux/list.h, derived to hlist_nulls variant
include/linux/rculist_nulls.h
- mimics hlist part of include/linux/rculist.h, derived to hlist_nulls variant
Only four helpers are declared for the moment :
hlist_nulls_del_init_rcu(), hlist_nulls_del_rcu(),
hlist_nulls_add_head_rcu() and hlist_nulls_for_each_entry_rcu()
prefetches() were removed, since an end of list is not anymore NULL value.
prefetches() could trigger useless (and possibly dangerous) memory transactions.
Example of use (extracted from __udp4_lib_lookup())
struct sock *sk, *result;
struct hlist_nulls_node *node;
unsigned short hnum = ntohs(dport);
unsigned int hash = udp_hashfn(net, hnum);
struct udp_hslot *hslot = &udptable->hash[hash];
int score, badness;
rcu_read_lock();
begin:
result = NULL;
badness = -1;
sk_nulls_for_each_rcu(sk, node, &hslot->head) {
score = compute_score(sk, net, saddr, hnum, sport,
daddr, dport, dif);
if (score > badness) {
result = sk;
badness = score;
}
}
/*
* if the nulls value we got at the end of this lookup is
* not the expected one, we must restart lookup.
* We probably met an item that was moved to another chain.
*/
if (get_nulls_value(node) != hash)
goto begin;
if (result) {
if (unlikely(!atomic_inc_not_zero(&result->sk_refcnt)))
result = NULL;
else if (unlikely(compute_score(result, net, saddr, hnum, sport,
daddr, dport, dif) < badness)) {
sock_put(result);
goto begin;
}
}
rcu_read_unlock();
return result;
