e2446eaab5 tcp_v4_send_reset: binding oif to iif in no sock case
Binding RST packet outgoing interface to incoming interface
for tcp v4 when there is no socket associate with it.
when sk is not NULL, using sk->sk_bound_dev_if instead.
(suggested by Eric Dumazet).

This has few benefits:
1. tcp_v6_send_reset already did that.
2. This helps tcp connect with SO_BINDTODEVICE set. When
connection is lost, we still able to sending out RST using
same interface.
3. we are sending reply, it is most likely to be succeed
if iif is used

658ddaaf66 tcp: md5: RST: getting md5 key from listener
TCP RST mechanism is broken in TCP md5(RFC2385). When
connection is gone, md5 key is lost, sending RST
without md5 hash is deem to ignored by peer. This can
be a problem since RST help protocal like bgp to fast
recove from peer crash.

In most case, users of tcp md5, such as bgp and ldp,
have listener on both sides to accept connection from peer.
md5 keys for peers are saved in listening socket.

There are two cases in finding md5 key when connection is
lost:
1.Passive receive RST: The message is send to well known port,
tcp will associate it with listner. md5 key is gotten from
listener.

2.Active receive RST (no sock): The message is send to ative
side, there is no socket associated with the message. In this
case, finding listener from source port, then find md5 key from
listener.

we are not loosing sercuriy here:
packet is checked with md5 hash. No RST is generated
if md5 hash doesn't match or no md5 key can be found.

a8afca0329 tcp: md5: protects md5sig_info with RCU
This patch makes sure we use appropriate memory barriers before
publishing tp->md5sig_info, allowing tcp_md5_do_lookup() being used from
tcp_v4_send_reset() without holding socket lock (upcoming patch from
Shawn Lu)

Note we also need to respect rcu grace period before its freeing, since
we can free socket without this grace period thanks to
SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU

5f3d9cb296 tcp: md5: use sock_kmalloc() to limit md5 keys
There is no limit on number of MD5 keys an application can attach to a
tcp socket.

This patch adds a per tcp socket limit based
on /proc/sys/net/core/optmem_max

With current default optmem_max values, this allows about 150 keys on
64bit arches, and 88 keys on 32bit arches.

a915da9b69 tcp: md5: rcu conversion
In order to be able to support proper RST messages for TCP MD5 flows, we
need to allow access to MD5 keys without locking listener socket.

This conversion is a nice cleanup, and shrinks size of timewait sockets
by 80 bytes.

IPv6 code reuses generic code found in IPv4 instead of duplicating it.

Control path uses GFP_KERNEL allocations instead of GFP_ATOMIC.

180d8cd942 foundations of per-cgroup memory pressure controlling.
This patch replaces all uses of struct sock fields' memory_pressure,
memory_allocated, sockets_allocated, and sysctl_mem to acessor
macros. Those macros can either receive a socket argument, or a mem_cgroup
argument, depending on the context they live in.

Since we're only doing a macro wrapping here, no performance impact at all is
expected in the case where we don't have cgroups disabled.

d8a6e65f8b tcp: inherit listener congestion control for passive cnx
Rick Jones reported that TCP_CONGESTION sockopt performed on a listener
was ignored for its children sockets : right after accept() the
congestion control for new socket is the system default one.

This seems an oversight of the initial design (quoted from Stephen)

Problem comes from commit 0e734419
(ipv4: Use inet_csk_route_child_sock() in DCCP and TCP.)

If inet_csk_route_child_sock() returns NULL, we should release socket

66b13d99d9 ipv4: tcp: fix TOS value in ACK messages sent from TIME_WAIT
There is a long standing bug in linux tcp stack, about ACK messages sent
on behalf of TIME_WAIT sockets.

In the IP header of the ACK message, we choose to reflect TOS field of
incoming message, and this might break some setups.

Example of things that were broken :
  - Routing using TOS as a selector
  - Firewalls
  - Trafic classification / shaping

We now remember in timewait structure the inet tos field and use it in
ACK generation, and route lookup.

Notes :
 - We still reflect incoming TOS in RST messages.
 - We could extend MuraliRaja Muniraju patch to report TOS value in
netlink messages for TIME_WAIT sockets.
 - A patch is needed for IPv6

6e5714eaf7 net: Compute protocol sequence numbers and fragment IDs using MD5.
Computers have become a lot faster since we compromised on the
partial MD4 hash which we use currently for performance reasons.

MD5 is a much safer choice, and is inline with both RFC1948 and
other ISS generators (OpenBSD, Solaris, etc.)

Furthermore, only having 24-bits of the sequence number be truly
unpredictable is a very serious limitation.  So the periodic
regeneration and 8-bit counter have been removed.  We compute and
use a full 32-bit sequence number.

For ipv6, DCCP was found to use a 32-bit truncated initial sequence
number (it needs 43-bits) and that is fixed here as well.

[PATCH v2] net: rfs: enable RFS before first data packet is received

First packet received on a passive tcp flow is not correctly RFS
steered.

One sock_rps_record_flow() call is missing in inet_accept()

But before that, we also must record rxhash when child socket is setup.

9ad7c049f0 tcp: RFC2988bis + taking RTT sample from 3WHS for the passive open side
This patch lowers the default initRTO from 3secs to 1sec per
RFC2988bis. It falls back to 3secs if the SYN or SYN-ACK packet
has been retransmitted, AND the TCP timestamp option is not on.

It also adds support to take RTT sample during 3WHS on the passive
open side, just like its active open counterpart, and uses it, if
valid, to seed the initRTO for the data transmission phase.

The patch also resets ssthresh to its initial default at the
beginning of the data transmission phase, and reduces cwnd to 1 if
there has been MORE THAN ONE retransmission during 3WHS per RFC5681.

71338aa7d0 net: convert %p usage to %pK
The %pK format specifier is designed to hide exposed kernel pointers,
specifically via /proc interfaces.  Exposing these pointers provides an
easy target for kernel write vulnerabilities, since they reveal the
locations of writable structures containing easily triggerable function
pointers.  The behavior of %pK depends on the kptr_restrict sysctl.

If kptr_restrict is set to 0, no deviation from the standard %p behavior
occurs.  If kptr_restrict is set to 1, the default, if the current user
(intended to be a reader via seq_printf(), etc.) does not have CAP_SYSLOG
(currently in the LSM tree), kernel pointers using %pK are printed as 0's.
 If kptr_restrict is set to 2, kernel pointers using %pK are printed as
0's regardless of privileges.  Replacing with 0's was chosen over the
default "(null)", which cannot be parsed by userland %p, which expects
"(nil)".

The supporting code for kptr_restrict and %pK are currently in the -mm
tree.  This patch converts users of %p in net/ to %pK.  Cases of printing
pointers to the syslog are not covered, since this would eliminate useful
information for postmortem debugging and the reading of the syslog is
already optionally protected by the dmesg_restrict sysctl.

f6d8bd051c inet: add RCU protection to inet->opt
We lack proper synchronization to manipulate inet->opt ip_options

Problem is ip_make_skb() calls ip_setup_cork() and
ip_setup_cork() possibly makes a copy of ipc->opt (struct ip_options),
without any protection against another thread manipulating inet->opt.

Another thread can change inet->opt pointer and free old one under us.

Use RCU to protect inet->opt (changed to inet->inet_opt).

Instead of handling atomic refcounts, just copy ip_options when
necessary, to avoid cache line dirtying.

We cant insert an rcu_head in struct ip_options since its included in
skb->cb[], so this patch is large because I had to introduce a new
ip_options_rcu structure.

2d7192d6cb ipv4: Sanitize and simplify ip_route_{connect,newports}()
These functions are used together as a unit for route resolution
during connect().  They address the chicken-and-egg problem that
exists when ports need to be allocated during connect() processing,
yet such port allocations require addressing information from the
routing code.

It's currently more heavy handed than it needs to be, and in
particular we allocate and initialize a flow object twice.

Let the callers provide the on-stack flow object.  That way we only
need to initialize it once in the ip_route_connect() call.

Later, if ip_route_newports() needs to do anything, it re-uses that
flow object as-is except for the ports which it updates before the
route re-lookup.

Also, describe why this set of facilities are needed and how it works
in a big comment.

dca8b089c9 ipv4: Rearrange how ip_route_newports() gets port keys.
ip_route_newports() is the only place in the entire kernel that
cares about the port members in the routing cache entry's lookup
flow key.

Therefore the only reason we store an entire flow inside of the
struct rtentry is for this one special case.

Rewrite ip_route_newports() such that:

1) The caller passes in the original port values, so we don't need
   to use the rth->fl.fl_ip_{s,d}port values to remember them.

2) The lookup flow is constructed by hand instead of being copied
   from the routing cache entry's flow.

7a71ed899e inetpeer: Abstract address representation further.
Future changes will add caching information, and some of

Since the family is implicit via the ->daddr.family member,
replicating the family in ever address we store is entirely
redundant.

fd0273c503 tcp: fix bug in listening_get_next()
commit a8b690f98b (tcp: Fix slowness in read /proc/net/tcp)
introduced a bug in handling of SYN_RECV sockets.

st->offset represents number of sockets found since beginning of
listening_hash[st->bucket].

We should not reset st->offset when iterating through
syn_table[st->sbucket], or else if more than ~25 sockets (if
PAGE_SIZE=4096) are in SYN_RECV state, we exit from listening_get_next()
with a too small st->offset

Next time we enter tcp_seek_last_pos(), we are not able to seek past
already found sockets.

1bde5ac493 tcp: fix listening_get_next()
Alexey Vlasov found /proc/net/tcp could sometime loop and display
millions of sockets in LISTEN state.

In 2.6.29, when we converted TCP hash tables to RCU, we left two
sk_next() calls in listening_get_next().

We must instead use sk_nulls_next() to properly detect an end of chain.

0dbaee3b37 net: Abstract default ADVMSS behind an accessor.
Make all RTAX_ADVMSS metric accesses go through a new helper function,
dst_metric_advmss().

Leave the actual default metric as "zero" in the real metric slot,
and compute the actual default value dynamically via a new dst_ops
AF specific callback.

For stacked IPSEC routes, we use the advmss of the path which
preserves existing behavior.

Unlike ipv4/ipv6, DecNET ties the advmss to the mtu and thus updates
advmss on pmtu updates.  This inconsistency in advmss handling
results in more raw metric accesses than I wish we ended up with.
