      mac80211: Do not restart scheduled scan if multiple scan plans are set · e2845c45
      Avraham Stern authored
      If multiple scan plans were set for scheduled scan, do not restart
      scheduled scan on reconfig because it is possible that some scan
      plans were already completed and there is no need to run them all
      over again. Instead, notify userspace that scheduled scan stopped
      so it can configure new scan plans for scheduled scan.

      cfg80211: Add multiple scan plans for scheduled scan · 3b06d277
      Avraham Stern authored
      Add the option to configure multiple 'scan plans' for scheduled scan.
      Each 'scan plan' defines the number of scan cycles and the interval
      between scans. The scan plans are executed in the order they were
      configured. The last scan plan will always run infinitely and thus
      defines only the interval between scans.
      The maximum number of scan plans supported by the device and the
      maximum number of iterations in a single scan plan are advertised
      to userspace so it can configure the scan plans appropriately.
      
      When scheduled scan results are received there is no way to know which
      scan plan is being currently executed, so there is no way to know when
      the next scan iteration will start. This is not a problem, however.
      The scan start timestamp is only used for flushing old scan results,
      and there is no difference between flushing all results received until
      the end of the previous iteration or the start of the current one,
      since no results will be received in between.

      nl80211: allow BSS data to include CLOCK_BOOTTIME timestamp · 6e19bc4b
      Dmitry Shmidt authored
      For location and connectivity services, userspace would often like
      to know the time when the BSS was last seen. The current "last seen"
      value is calculated in a way that makes it less useful, especially
      if the system suspended in the meantime.
      
      Add the ability for the driver to report a real CLOCK_BOOTTIME stamp
      that can then be reported to userspace (if present).
      
      Drivers wishing to use this must be converted to the new API to call
      cfg80211_inform_bss_data() or cfg80211_inform_bss_frame_data(). They
      need to ensure the reported value is accurate enough even when the
      frame might have been buffered in the device (e.g. firmware.)

      Currently it's possible for someone to send a vlan range to the kernel
      with the pvid flag set which will result in the pvid bouncing from a

      where it doesn't make sense having more than 1 pvid. iproute2 already
      enforces this, so let's enforce it on kernel-side as well.

      devices in another network namespace.
      
      In netfilter and af_packet we defragment packets in the output path,
      and there is the usual amount of confusion about how to compute which
      net we are processing the packets in.  This patchset clears that
      confusion up by explicitly passing in struct net in ip_defrag,

      Eric Dumazet authored
      Recent TCP listener patches exposed a prior af_packet bug :
      match_fanout_group() blindly assumes it is always safe
      to cast sk to a packet socket to compare fanout with af_packet_priv
      
      But SYNACK packets can be sent while attached to request_sock, which
      are smaller than a "struct sock".
      
      We can read non existent memory and crash.

      ipv4/icmp: redirect messages can use the ingress daddr as source · e2ca690b
      Paolo Abeni authored
      This patch allows configuring how the source address of ICMP
      redirect messages is selected; by default the old behaviour is
      retained, while setting icmp_redirects_use_orig_daddr force the
      usage of the destination address of the packet that caused the
      redirect.
      
      The new behaviour fits closely the RFC 5798 section 8.1.1, and fix the
      following scenario:
      
      Two machines are set up with VRRP to act as routers out of a subnet,
      they have IPs x.x.x.1/24 and x.x.x.2/24, with VRRP holding on to
      x.x.x.254/24.
      
      If a host in said subnet needs to get an ICMP redirect from the VRRP
      router, i.e. to reach a destination behind a different gateway, the
      source IP in the ICMP redirect is chosen as the primary IP on the
      interface that the packet arrived at, i.e. x.x.x.1 or x.x.x.2.
      
      The host will then ignore said redirect, due to RFC 1122 section 3.2.2.2,
      and will continue to use the wrong next-op.

      net: align sk_refcnt on 128 bytes boundary · 8e5eb54d
      Eric Dumazet authored
      sk->sk_refcnt is dirtied for every TCP/UDP incoming packet.
      This is a performance issue if multiple cpus hit a common socket,
      or multiple sockets are chained due to SO_REUSEPORT.
      
      By moving sk_refcnt 8 bytes further, first 128 bytes of sockets
      are mostly read. As they contain the lookup keys, this has
      a considerable performance impact, as cpus can cache them.
      
      These 8 bytes are not wasted, we use them as a place holder
      for various fields, depending on the socket type.
      
      Tested:
       SYN flood hitting a 16 RX queues NIC.
       TCP listener using 16 sockets and SO_REUSEPORT
       and SO_INCOMING_CPU for proper siloing.
      
       Could process 6.0 Mpps SYN instead of 4.2 Mpps

      This commits adds setsockopt() support and extends SO_REUSEPORT selection
      logic : If a TCP listener or UDP socket has this option set, a packet is
      delivered to this socket only if CPU handling the packet matches the specified
      one.
      
      This allows to build very efficient TCP servers, using one listener per
      RX queue, as the associated TCP listener should only accept flows handled
      in softirq by the same cpu.
      This provides optimal NUMA behavior and keep cpu caches hot.
      
      Note that __inet_lookup_listener() still has to iterate over the list of
      all listeners. Following patch puts sk_refcnt in a different cache line
      to let this iteration hit only shared and read mostly cache lines.

      sock: support per-packet fwmark · f28ea365
      Edward Jee authored
      It's useful to allow users to set fwmark for an individual packet,
      without changing the socket state. The function this patch adds in
      sock layer can be used by the protocols that need such a feature.

      Merge branch 'bpf-unprivileged' · c1bf5fe0
      David S. Miller authored
      Alexei Starovoitov says:
      
      ====================
      bpf: unprivileged
      
      v1-v2:
      - this set logically depends on cb patch
        "bpf: fix cb access in socket filter programs":
        http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/527391/
        which is must have to allow unprivileged programs.
        Thanks Daniel for finding that issue.
      - refactored sysctl to be similar to 'modules_disabled'
      - dropped bpf_trace_printk
      - split tests into separate patch and added more tests
        based on discussion
      
      v1 cover letter:
      I think it is time to liberate eBPF from CAP_SYS_ADMIN.
      As was discussed when eBPF was first introduced two years ago
      the only piece missing in eBPF verifier is 'pointer leak detection'
      to make it available to non-root users.
      Patch 1 adds this pointer analysis.
      The eBPF programs, obviously, need to see and operate on kernel addresses,
      but with these extra checks they won't be able to pass these addresses
      to user space.
      Patch 2 adds accounting of kernel memory used by programs and maps.
      It changes behavoir for existing root users, but I think it needs
      to be done consistently for both root and non-root, since today
      programs and maps are only limited by number of open FDs (RLIMIT_NOFILE).
      Patch 2 accounts program's and map's kernel memory as RLIMIT_MEMLOCK.
      
      Unprivileged eBPF is only meaningful for 'socket filter'-like programs.
      eBPF programs for tracing and TC classifiers/actions will stay root only.
      
      In parallel the bpf fuzzing effort is ongoing and so far
      we've found only one verifier bug and that was already fixed.
      The 'constant blinding' pass also being worked on.
      It will obfuscate constant-like values that are part of eBPF ISA
      to make jit spraying attacks even harder.

      bpf: add unprivileged bpf tests · bf508877
      Alexei Starovoitov authored
      Add new tests samples/bpf/test_verifier:
      
      unpriv: return pointer
        checks that pointer cannot be returned from the eBPF program
      
      unpriv: add const to pointer
      unpriv: add pointer to pointer
      unpriv: neg pointer
        checks that pointer arithmetic is disallowed
      
      unpriv: cmp pointer with const
      unpriv: cmp pointer with pointer
        checks that comparison of pointers is disallowed
        Only one case allowed 'void *value = bpf_map_lookup_elem(..); if (value == 0) ...'
      
      unpriv: check that printk is disallowed
        since bpf_trace_printk is not available to unprivileged
      
      unpriv: pass pointer to helper function
        checks that pointers cannot be passed to functions that expect integers
        If function expects a pointer the verifier allows only that type of pointer.
        Like 1st argument of bpf_map_lookup_elem() must be pointer to map.
        (applies to non-root as well)
      
      unpriv: indirectly pass pointer on stack to helper function
        checks that pointer stored into stack cannot be used as part of key
        passed into bpf_map_lookup_elem()
      
      unpriv: mangle pointer on stack 1
      unpriv: mangle pointer on stack 2
        checks that writing into stack slot that already contains a pointer
        is disallowed
      
      unpriv: read pointer from stack in small chunks
        checks that < 8 byte read from stack slot that contains a pointer is
        disallowed
      
      unpriv: write pointer into ctx
        checks that storing pointers into skb->fields is disallowed
      
      unpriv: write pointer into map elem value
        checks that storing pointers into element values is disallowed
        For example:
        int bpf_prog(struct __sk_buff *skb)
        {
          u32 key = 0;
          u64 *value = bpf_map_lookup_elem(&map, &key);
          if (value)
             *value = (u64) skb;
        }
        will be rejected.
      
      unpriv: partial copy of pointer
        checks that doing 32-bit register mov from register containing
        a pointer is disallowed
      
      unpriv: pass pointer to tail_call
        checks that passing pointer as an index into bpf_tail_call
        is disallowed
      
      unpriv: cmp map pointer with zero
        checks that comparing map pointer with constant is disallowed
      
      unpriv: write into frame pointer
        checks that frame pointer is read-only (applies to root too)
      
      unpriv: cmp of frame pointer
        checks that R10 cannot be using in comparison
      
      unpriv: cmp of stack pointer
        checks that Rx = R10 - imm is ok, but comparing Rx is not
      
      unpriv: obfuscate stack pointer
        checks that Rx = R10 - imm is ok, but Rx -= imm is not

      bpf: charge user for creation of BPF maps and programs · aaac3ba9
      Alexei Starovoitov authored
      since eBPF programs and maps use kernel memory consider it 'locked' memory
      from user accounting point of view and charge it against RLIMIT_MEMLOCK limit.
      This limit is typically set to 64Kbytes by distros, so almost all
      bpf+tracing programs would need to increase it, since they use maps,
      but kernel charges maximum map size upfront.
      For example the hash map of 1024 elements will be charged as 64Kbyte.
      It's inconvenient for current users and changes current behavior for root,
      but probably worth doing to be consistent root vs non-root.
      
      Similar accounting logic is done by mmap of perf_event.
