08911475d1 netfilter: nf_conntrack: generalize nf_ct_l4proto_net
This patch generalizes nf_ct_l4proto_net by splitting it into chunks and
moving the corresponding protocol part to where it really belongs to.

To clarify, note that we follow two different approaches to support per-net
depending if it's built-in or run-time loadable protocol tracker.

4dc27d1cf3 net/ipv6/route.c: packets originating on device match lo
Fix to allow IPv6 packets originating locally to match rules with the "iff"
set to "lo".  This allows IPv6 rule matching work the same as it does for
IPv4.  From the iproute2 man page:

   iif NAME
		  select  the incoming device to match.  If the interface is loop‐
		  back, the rule only matches packets originating from this  host.
		  This  means that you may create separate routing tables for for‐
		  warded and local packets and, hence, completely segregate them.

d189634eca ipv6: Move ipv6 proc file registration to end of init order
/proc/net/ipv6_route reflects the contents of fib_table_hash. The proc
handler is installed in ip6_route_net_init() whereas fib_table_hash is

This opens up a short time frame to access fib_table_hash with its pants

Move the registration of the proc files to a later point in the init

====================
This is the second batch of Netfilter updates for net-next. It contains the
kernel changes for the new user-space connection tracking helper
infrastructure.

More details on this infrastructure are provides here:
http://lwn.net/Articles/500196/

Still, I plan to provide some official documentation through the
conntrack-tools user manual on how to setup user-space utilities for this.
So far, it provides two helper in user-space, one for NFSv3 and another for
Oracle/SQLnet/TNS. Yet in my TODO list.

12f7a50533 netfilter: add user-space connection tracking helper infrastructure
There are good reasons to supports helpers in user-space instead:

* Rapid connection tracking helper development, as developing code
  in user-space is usually faster.

* Reliability: A buggy helper does not crash the kernel. Moreover,
  we can monitor the helper process and restart it in case of problems.

* Security: Avoid complex string matching and mangling in kernel-space
  running in privileged mode. Going further, we can even think about
  running user-space helpers as a non-root process.

* Extensibility: It allows the development of very specific helpers (most
  likely non-standard proprietary protocols) that are very likely not to be
  accepted for mainline inclusion in the form of kernel-space connection
  tracking helpers.

This patch adds the infrastructure to allow the implementation of
user-space conntrack helpers by means of the new nfnetlink subsystem
`nfnetlink_cthelper' and the existing queueing infrastructure
(nfnetlink_queue).

I had to add the new hook NF_IP6_PRI_CONNTRACK_HELPER to register
ipv[4|6]_helper which results from splitting ipv[4|6]_confirm into
two pieces. This change is required not to break NAT sequence
adjustment and conntrack confirmation for traffic that is enqueued
to our user-space conntrack helpers.

Basic operation, in a few steps:

1) Register user-space helper by means of `nfct':

 nfct helper add ftp inet tcp

 [ It must be a valid existing helper supported by conntrack-tools ]

2) Add rules to enable the FTP user-space helper which is
   used to track traffic going to TCP port 21.

For locally generated packets:

 iptables -I OUTPUT -t raw -p tcp --dport 21 -j CT --helper ftp

For non-locally generated packets:

 iptables -I PREROUTING -t raw -p tcp --dport 21 -j CT --helper ftp

3) Run the test conntrackd in helper mode (see example files under
   doc/helper/conntrackd.conf

 conntrackd

4) Generate FTP traffic going, if everything is OK, then conntrackd
   should create expectations (you can check that with `conntrack':

 conntrack -E expect

    [NEW] 301 proto=6 src=192.168.1.136 dst=130.89.148.12 sport=0 dport=54037 mask-src=255.255.255.255 mask-dst=255.255.255.255 sport=0 dport=65535 master-src=192.168.1.136 master-dst=130.89.148.12 sport=57127 dport=21 class=0 helper=ftp
[DESTROY] 301 proto=6 src=192.168.1.136 dst=130.89.148.12 sport=0 dport=54037 mask-src=255.255.255.255 mask-dst=255.255.255.255 sport=0 dport=65535 master-src=192.168.1.136 master-dst=130.89.148.12 sport=57127 dport=21 class=0 helper=ftp

This confirms that our test helper is receiving packets including the
conntrack information, and adding expectations in kernel-space.

The user-space helper can also store its private tracking information
in the conntrack structure in the kernel via the CTA_HELP_INFO. The
kernel will consider this a binary blob whose layout is unknown. This
information will be included in the information that is transfered
to user-space via glue code that integrates nfnetlink_queue and
ctnetlink.

fib6_init() as a whole can't be moved to an earlier position as it also
registers the rtnetlink message handlers which should be registered at

fib6_init_late() to register the rtnetlink message handlers.

81aded2467 ipv6: Handle PMTU in ICMP error handlers.
One tricky issue on the ipv6 side vs. ipv4 is that the ICMP callouts
to handle the error pass the 32-bit info cookie in network byte order
whereas ipv4 passes it around in host byte order.

Like the ipv4 side, we have two helper functions.  One for when we
have a socket context and one for when we do not.

ip6ip6 tunnels are not handled here, because they handle PMTU events
by essentially relaying another ICMP packet-too-big message back to
the original sender.

This patch allows us to get rid of rt6_do_pmtu_disc().  It handles all
kinds of situations that simply cannot happen when we do the PMTU
update directly using a fully resolved route.

In fact, the "plen == 128" check in ip6_rt_update_pmtu() can very
likely be removed or changed into a BUG_ON() check.  We should never
have a prefixed ipv6 route when we get there.

Another piece of strange history here is that TCP and DCCP, unlike in
ipv4, never invoke the update_pmtu() method from their ICMP error
handlers.  This is incredibly astonishing since this is the context
where we have the most accurate context in which to make a PMTU
update, namely we have a fully connected socket and associated cached
socket route.

3639339553 ipv4: Handle PMTU in all ICMP error handlers.
With ip_rt_frag_needed() removed, we have to explicitly update PMTU
information in every ICMP error handler.

Create two helper functions to facilitate this.

1) ipv4_sk_update_pmtu()

   This updates the PMTU when we have a socket context to
   work with.

2) ipv4_update_pmtu()

   Raw version, used when no socket context is available.  For this
   interface, we essentially just pass in explicit arguments for
   the flow identity information we would have extracted from the
   socket.

   And you'll notice that ipv4_sk_update_pmtu() is simply implemented
   in terms of ipv4_update_pmtu()

Note that __ip_route_output_key() is used, rather than something like
ip_route_output_flow() or ip_route_output_key().  This is because we
absolutely do not want to end up with a route that does IPSEC
encapsulation and the like.  Instead, we only want the route that
would get us to the node described by the outermost IP header.

95603e2293 net-next: add dev_loopback_xmit() to avoid duplicate code
Add dev_loopback_xmit() in order to deduplicate functions
ip_dev_loopback_xmit() (in net/ipv4/ip_output.c) and
ip6_dev_loopback_xmit() (in net/ipv6/ip6_output.c).

I was about to reinvent the wheel when I noticed that
ip_dev_loopback_xmit() and ip6_dev_loopback_xmit() do exactly what I
need and are not IP-only functions, but they were not available to reuse
elsewhere.

ip6_dev_loopback_xmit() does not have line "skb_dst_force(skb);", but I
understand that this is harmless, and should be in dev_loopback_xmit().

4670fd819e tcp: Get rid of inetpeer special cases.
The get_peer method TCP uses is full of special cases that make no
sense accommodating, and it also gets in the way of doing more
reasonable things here.

First of all, if the socket doesn't have a usable cached route, there
is no sense in trying to optimize timewait recycling.

Likewise for the case where we have IP options, such as SRR enabled,
that make the IP header destination address (and thus the destination
address of the route key) differ from that of the connection's
destination address.

Just return a NULL peer in these cases, and thus we're also able to
get rid of the clumsy inetpeer release logic.

And ipIfStatsOutTransmits:

   locally and those forwarded by this entity.

Therefore, IPSTATS_MIB_OUTOCTETS must be incremented when incrementing
IPSTATS_MIB_OUTFORWDATAGRAMS.

IP_UPD_PO_STATS is not used since ipIfStatsOutRequests must not
include forwarded datagrams:

   The total number of IP datagrams that local IP user-protocols
   (including ICMP) supplied to IP in requests for transmission.  Note
   that this counter does not include any datagrams counted in

2c352f444c netfilter: nf_conntrack: prepare namespace support for l4 protocol trackers
This patch prepares the namespace support for layer 4 protocol trackers.
Basically, this modifies the following interfaces:

* nf_ct_[un]register_sysctl
* nf_conntrack_l4proto_[un]register

to include the namespace parameter. We still use init_net in this patch
to prepare the ground for follow-up patches for each layer 4 protocol
tracker.

We add a new net_id field to struct nf_conntrack_l4proto that is used
to store the pernet_operations id for each layer 4 protocol tracker.

Note that AF_INET6's protocols do not need to do sysctl compat. Thus,
we only register compat sysctl when l4proto.l3proto != AF_INET6.

e3192690a3 net: Remove casts to same type
Adding casts of objects to the same type is unnecessary
and confusing for a human reader.

For example, this cast:

	int y;
	int *p = (int *)&y;

I used the coccinelle script below to find and remove these
unnecessary casts.  I manually removed the conversions this
script produces of casts with __force and __user.

@@
type T;
T *p;
@@

-	(T *)p
+	p

4aea39c11c tcp: tcp_make_synack() consumes dst parameter
tcp_make_synack() clones the dst, and callers release it.

We can avoid two atomic operations per SYNACK if tcp_make_synack()
consumes dst instead of cloning it.

fff3269907 tcp: reflect SYN queue_mapping into SYNACK packets
While testing how linux behaves on SYNFLOOD attack on multiqueue device
(ixgbe), I found that SYNACK messages were dropped at Qdisc level
because we send them all on a single queue.

Obvious choice is to reflect incoming SYN packet @queue_mapping to
SYNACK packet.

Under stress, my machine could only send 25.000 SYNACK per second (for
200.000 incoming SYN per second). NIC : ixgbe with 16 rx/tx queues.

After patch, not a single SYNACK is dropped.

0c1833797a ipv6: fix incorrect ipsec fragment
Since commit ad0081e43a
"ipv6: Fragment locally generated tunnel-mode IPSec6 packets as needed"
the fragment of packets is incorrect.
because tunnel mode needs IPsec headers and trailer for all fragments,
while on transport mode it is sufficient to add the headers to the
first fragment and the trailer to the last.

so modify mtu and maxfraglen base on ipsec mode and if fragment is first
or last.

with my test,it work well(every fragment's size is the mtu)
and does not trigger slow fragment path.

Changes from v1:
	though optimization, mtu_prev and maxfraglen_prev can be delete.
	replace xfrm mode codes with dst_entry's new frag DST_XFRM_TUNNEL.
	add fuction ip6_append_data_mtu to make codes clearer.

91657eafb6 xfrm: take net hdr len into account for esp payload size calculation
Corrects the function that determines the esp payload size. The calculations
done in esp{4,6}_get_mtu() lead to overlength frames in transport mode for
certain mtu values and suboptimal frames for others.

According to what is done, mainly in esp{,6}_output() and tcp_mtu_to_mss(),
net_header_len must be taken into account before doing the alignment
calculation.

9b905fe684 ipv6/exthdrs: strict Pad1 and PadN check
The following tightens the padding check from commit
c1412fce7e :

* Take into account combinations of consecutive Pad1 and PadN.

* Catch the corner case of when only padding is present in the
  header, when the extention header length is 0 (i.e., 8 bytes).
  In this case, the header would have exactly 6 bytes of padding:

+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
:  Next Header  : Hdr Ext Len=0 :                               :
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+                               +
:                        Padding (Pad1 or PadN)                 :

a34a101e1e ipv6: disable GSO on sockets hitting dst_allfrag
If the allfrag feature has been set on a host route (due to an ICMPv6
Packet Too Big received indicating a MTU of less than 1280), we hit a
very slow behavior in TCP stack, because all big packets are dropped and
only a retransmit timer is able to push one MSS frame every 200 ms.

One way to handle this is to disable GSO on the socket the first time a
super packet is dropped. Adding a specific dst_allfrag() in the fast
path is probably overkill since the dst_allfrag() case almost never
happen.

Result on netperf TCP_STREAM, one flow :

Before : 60 kbit/sec
After : 1.6 Gbit/sec
