2017-05-24netfilter: ctnetlink: fix incorrect nf_ct_put during hash resizeLiping Zhang
If nf_conntrack_htable_size was adjusted by the user during the ct dump operation, we may invoke nf_ct_put twice for the same ct, i.e. the "last" ct. This will cause the ct will be freed but still linked in hash buckets. It's very easy to reproduce the problem by the following commands: # while : ; do echo $RANDOM > /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_buckets done # while : ; do conntrack -L done # iperf -s 127.0.0.1 & # iperf -c 127.0.0.1 -P 60 -t 36000 After a while, the system will hang like this: NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#1 stuck for 22s! [bash:20184] NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 22s! [iperf:20382] ... So at last if we find cb->args[1] is equal to "last", this means hash resize happened, then we can set cb->args[1] to 0 to fix the above issue.

2017-05-23netfilter: nat: use atomic bit op to clear the _SRC_NAT_DONE_BITLiping Zhang
We need to clear the IPS_SRC_NAT_DONE_BIT to indicate that the ct has been removed from nat_bysource table. But unfortunately, we use the non-atomic bit operation: "ct->status &= ~IPS_NAT_DONE_MASK". So there's a race condition that we may clear the _DYING_BIT set by another CPU unexpectedly. Since we don't care about the IPS_DST_NAT_DONE_BIT, so just using clear_bit to clear the IPS_SRC_NAT_DONE_BIT is enough. Also note, this is the last user which use the non-atomic bit operation to update the confirmed ct->status.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter/IPVS fixes for net The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS fixes for your net tree, they are: 1) When using IPVS in direct-routing mode, normal traffic from the LVS host to a back-end server is sometimes incorrectly NATed on the way back into the LVS host. Patch to fix this from Julian Anastasov. 2) Calm down clang compilation warning in ctnetlink due to type mismatch, from Matthias Kaehlcke. 3) Do not re-setup NAT for conntracks that are already confirmed, this is fixing a problem that was introduced in the previous nf-next batch. Patch from Liping Zhang. 4) Do not allow conntrack helper removal from userspace cthelper infrastructure if already in used. This comes with an initial patch to introduce nf_conntrack_helper_put() that is required by this fix. From Liping Zhang. 5) Zero the pad when copying data to userspace, otherwise iptables fails to remove rules. This is a follow up on the patchset that sorts out the internal match/target structure pointer leak to userspace. Patch from the same author, Willem de Bruijn. This also comes with a build failure when CONFIG_COMPAT is not on, coming in the last patch of this series. 6) SYNPROXY crashes with conntrack entries that are created via ctnetlink, more specifically via conntrackd state sync. Patch from Eric Leblond. 7) RCU safe iteration on set element dumping in nf_tables, from Liping Zhang. 8) Missing sanitization of immediate date for the bitwise and cmp expressions in nf_tables. 9) Refcounting logic for chain and objects from set elements does not integrate into the nf_tables 2-phase commit protocol. 10) Missing sanitization of target verdict in ebtables arpreply target, from Gao Feng. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

2017-05-15netfilter: nf_tables: revisit chain/object refcounting from elementsPablo Neira Ayuso
Andreas reports that the following incremental update using our commit protocol doesn't work. # nft -f incremental-update.nft delete element ip filter client_to_any { 10.180.86.22 : goto CIn_1 } delete chain ip filter CIn_1 ... Error: Could not process rule: Device or resource busy The existing code is not well-integrated into the commit phase protocol, since element deletions do not result in refcount decrement from the preparation phase. This results in bogus EBUSY errors like the one above. Two new functions come with this patch: * nft_set_elem_activate() function is used from the abort path, to restore the set element refcounting on objects that occurred from the preparation phase. * nft_set_elem_deactivate() that is called from nft_del_setelem() to decrement set element refcounting on objects from the preparation phase in the commit protocol. The nft_data_uninit() has been renamed to nft_data_release() since this function does not uninitialize any data store in the data register, instead just releases the references to objects. Moreover, a new function nft_data_hold() has been introduced to be used from nft_set_elem_activate().

2017-05-15netfilter: xtables: zero padding in data_to_userWillem de Bruijn
When looking up an iptables rule, the iptables binary compares the aligned match and target data (XT_ALIGN). In some cases this can exceed the actual data size to include padding bytes. Before commit f77bc5b23fb1 ("iptables: use match, target and data copy_to_user helpers") the malloc()ed bytes were overwritten by the kernel with kzalloced contents, zeroing the padding and making the comparison succeed. After this patch, the kernel copies and clears only data, leaving the padding bytes undefined. Extend the clear operation from data size to aligned data size to include the padding bytes, if any. Padding bytes can be observed in both match and target, and the bug triggered, by issuing a rule with match icmp and target ACCEPT: iptables -t mangle -A INPUT -i lo -p icmp --icmp-type 1 -j ACCEPT iptables -t mangle -D INPUT -i lo -p icmp --icmp-type 1 -j ACCEPT Fixes: f77bc5b23fb1 ("iptables: use match, target and data copy_to_user helpers") Reported-by: Paul Moore <pmoore@redhat.com> Reported-by: Richard Guy Briggs <rgb@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

2017-05-08mm, vmalloc: use __GFP_HIGHMEM implicitlyMichal Hocko
__vmalloc* allows users to provide gfp flags for the underlying allocation. This API is quite popular $ git grep "=[[:space:]]__vmalloc\|return[[:space:]]*__vmalloc" | wc -l 77 The only problem is that many people are not aware that they really want to give __GFP_HIGHMEM along with other flags because there is really no reason to consume precious lowmemory on CONFIG_HIGHMEM systems for pages which are mapped to the kernel vmalloc space. About half of users don't use this flag, though. This signals that we make the API unnecessarily too complex. This patch simply uses __GFP_HIGHMEM implicitly when allocating pages to be mapped to the vmalloc space. Current users which add __GFP_HIGHMEM are simplified and drop the flag.

2017-05-08treewide: use kv[mz]alloc* rather than opencoded variantsMichal Hocko
There are many code paths opencoding kvmalloc. Let's use the helper instead. The main difference to kvmalloc is that those users are usually not considering all the aspects of the memory allocator. E.g. allocation requests <= 32kB (with 4kB pages) are basically never failing and invoke OOM killer to satisfy the allocation. This sounds too disruptive for something that has a reasonable fallback - the vmalloc. On the other hand those requests might fallback to vmalloc even when the memory allocator would succeed after several more reclaim/compaction attempts previously. There is no guarantee something like that happens though. This patch converts many of those places to kv[mz]alloc* helpers because they are more conservative.

2017-05-08ipvs: SNAT packet replies only for NATed connectionsJulian Anastasov
We do not check if packet from real server is for NAT connection before performing SNAT. This causes problems for setups that use DR/TUN and allow local clients to access the real server directly, for example: - local client in director creates IPVS-DR/TUN connection CIP->VIP and the request packets are routed to RIP. Talks are finished but IPVS connection is not expired yet. - second local client creates non-IPVS connection CIP->RIP with same reply tuple RIP->CIP and when replies are received on LOCAL_IN we wrongly assign them for the first client connection because RIP->CIP matches the reply direction. As result, IPVS SNATs replies for non-IPVS connections. The problem is more visible to local UDP clients but in rare cases it can happen also for TCP or remote clients when the real server sends the reply traffic via the director. So, better to be more precise for the reply traffic. As replies are not expected for DR/TUN connections, better to not touch them.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next tree. A large bunch of code cleanups, simplify the conntrack extension codebase, get rid of the fake conntrack object, speed up netns by selective synchronize_net() calls. More specifically, they are: 1) Check for ct->status bit instead of using nfct_nat() from IPVS and Netfilter codebase, patch from Florian Westphal. 2) Use kcalloc() wherever possible in the IPVS code, from Varsha Rao. 3) Simplify FTP IPVS helper module registration path, from Arushi Singhal. 4) Introduce nft_is_base_chain() helper function. 5) Enforce expectation limit from userspace conntrack helper, from Gao Feng. 6) Add nf_ct_remove_expect() helper function, from Gao Feng. 7) NAT mangle helper function return boolean, from Gao Feng. 8) ctnetlink_alloc_expect() should only work for conntrack with helpers, from Gao Feng. 9) Add nfnl_msg_type() helper function to nfnetlink to build the netlink message type. 10) Get rid of unnecessary cast on void, from simran singhal. 11) Use seq_puts()/seq_putc() instead of seq_printf() where possible, also from simran singhal. 12) Use list_prev_entry() from nf_tables, from simran signhal. 13) Remove unnecessary & on pointer function in the Netfilter and IPVS code. 14) Remove obsolete comment on set of rules per CPU in ip6_tables, no longer true. From Arushi Singhal. 15) Remove duplicated nf_conntrack_l4proto_udplite4, from Gao Feng. 16) Remove unnecessary nested rcu_read_lock() in __nf_nat_decode_session(). Code running from hooks are already guaranteed to run under RCU read side. 17) Remove deadcode in nf_tables_getobj(), from Aaron Conole. 18) Remove double assignment in nf_ct_l4proto_pernet_unregister_one(), also from Aaron. 19) Get rid of unsed __ip_set_get_netlink(), from Aaron Conole. 20) Don't propagate NF_DROP error to userspace via ctnetlink in __nf_nat_alloc_null_binding() function, from Gao Feng. 21) Revisit nf_ct_deliver_cached_events() to remove unnecessary checks, from Gao Feng. 22) Kill the fake untracked conntrack objects, use ctinfo instead to annotate a conntrack object is untracked, from Florian Westphal. 23) Remove nf_ct_is_untracked(), now obsolete since we have no conntrack template anymore, from Florian. 24) Add event mask support to nft_ct, also from Florian. 25) Move nf_conn_help structure to include/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_helper.h. 26) Add a fixed 32 bytes scratchpad area for conntrack helpers. Thus, we don't deal with variable conntrack extensions anymore. Make sure userspace conntrack helper doesn't go over that size. Remove variable size ct extension infrastructure now this code got no more clients. From Florian Westphal. 27) Restore offset and length of nf_ct_ext structure to 8 bytes now that wraparound is not possible any longer, also from Florian. 28) Allow to get rid of unassured flows under stress in conntrack, this applies to DCCP, SCTP and TCP protocols, from Florian. 29) Shrink size of nf_conntrack_ecache structure, from Florian. 30) Use TCP_MAX_WSCALE instead of hardcoded 14 in TCP tracker, from Gao Feng. 31) Register SYNPROXY hooks on demand, from Florian Westphal. 32) Use pernet hook whenever possible, instead of global hook registration, from Florian Westphal. 33) Pass hook structure to ebt_register_table() to consolidate some infrastructure code, from Florian Westphal. 34) Use consume_skb() and return NF_STOLEN, instead of NF_DROP in the SYNPROXY code, to make sure device stats are not fooled, patch from Gao Feng. 35) Remove NF_CT_EXT_F_PREALLOC this kills quite some code that we don't need anymore if we just select a fixed size instead of expensive runtime time calculation of this. From Florian. 36) Constify nf_ct_extend_register() and nf_ct_extend_unregister(), from Florian. 37) Simplify nf_ct_ext_add(), this kills nf_ct_ext_create(), from Florian. 38) Attach NAT extension on-demand from masquerade and pptp helper path, from Florian. 39) Get rid of useless ip_vs_set_state_timeout(), from Aaron Conole. 40) Speed up netns by selective calls of synchronize_net(), from Florian Westphal. 41) Silence stack size warning gcc in 32-bit arch in snmp helper, from Florian. 42) Inconditionally call nf_ct_ext_destroy(), even if we have no extensions, to deal with the NF_NAT_MANIP_SRC case.

For NF_NAT_MANIP_SRC, we will insert the ct to the nat_bysource_table, then remove it from the nat_bysource_table via nat_extend->destroy. But now, the nat extension is attached on demand, so if the nat extension is not attached, we will not be notified when the ct is destroyed, i.e. we may fail to remove ct from the nat_bysource_table. So just keep it simple, even if the extension is not attached, we will still invoke the related ext->destroy. And this will also preserve the flexibility for the future extension.

nf_unregister_net_hook(s) can avoid a second call to synchronize_net, provided there is no nfqueue active in that net namespace (which is the common case). This also gets rid of the extra arg to nf_queue_nf_hook_drop(), normally this gets called during netns cleanup so no packets should be queued. For the rare case of base chain being unregistered or module removal while nfqueue is in use the extra hiccup due to the packet drops isn't a big deal.

But nf_log_unset() is only called from pernet exit handlers.

2017-05-01netfilter: batch synchronize_net calls during hook unregisterFlorian Westphal
synchronize_net is expensive and slows down netns cleanup a lot.

Then, we can call that helper in nf_unregister_net_hooks and then call synchronize_net() only once. Andrey Konovalov reports this change improves syzkaller fuzzing speed at least twice.

2017-04-28ipvs: explicitly forbid ipv6 service/dest creation if ipv6 mod is disabledPaolo Abeni
When creating a new ipvs service, ipv6 addresses are always accepted if CONFIG_IP_VS_IPV6 is enabled. On dest creation the address family is not explicitly checked. This allows the user-space to configure ipvs services even if the system is booted with ipv6.disable=1. On specific configuration, ipvs can try to call ipv6 routing code at setup time, causing the kernel to oops due to fib6_rules_ops being NULL. This change addresses the issue adding a check for the ipv6 module being enabled while validating ipv6 service operations and adding the same validation for dest operations. According to git history, this issue is apparently present since the introduction of ipv6 support, and the oops can be triggered since commit 09571c7ae30865ad ("IPVS: Add function to determine if IPv6 address is local") Fixes: 09571c7ae30865ad ("IPVS: Add function to determine if IPv6 address is local") Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Acked-by: Julian Anastasov <ja@ssi.bg> Signed-off-by: Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au>

It was used by the nat extension, but since commit 7c9664351980 ("netfilter: move nat hlist_head to nf_conn") its only needed for connections that use MASQUERADE target or a nat helper. Also it seems a lot easier to preallocate a fixed size instead. With default settings, conntrack first adds ecache extension (sysctl defaults to 1), so we get 40(ct extension header) + 24 (ecache) == 64 byte on x86_64 for initial allocation.

2017-04-24netfilter: ctnetlink: make it safer when updating ct->statusLiping Zhang
After converting to use rcu for conntrack hash, one CPU may update the ct->status via ctnetlink, while another CPU may process the packets and update the ct->status. So the non-atomic operation "ct->status |= status;" via ctnetlink becomes unsafe, and this may clear the IPS_DYING_BIT bit set by another CPU unexpectedly. For example: CPU0 CPU1 ctnetlink_change_status __nf_conntrack_find_get old = ct->status nf_ct_gc_expired - nf_ct_kill - test_and_set_bit(IPS_DYING_BIT new = old | status; - ct->status = new; <-- oops, _DYING_ is cleared! Now using a series of atomic bit operation to solve the above issue. Also note, user shouldn't set IPS_TEMPLATE, IPS_SEQ_ADJUST directly, so make these two bits be unchangable too. If we set the IPS_TEMPLATE_BIT, ct will be freed by nf_ct_tmpl_free, but actually it is alloced by nf_conntrack_alloc. If we set the IPS_SEQ_ADJUST_BIT, this may cause the NULL pointer deference, as the nfct_seqadj(ct) maybe NULL. Last, add some comments to describe the logic change due to the commit a963d710f367 ("netfilter: ctnetlink: Fix regression in CTA_STATUS processing"), which makes me feel a little confusing.
