bb699cbca0 [IPV4]: Possible leak of multicast source filter sctructure
There is a leak of a socket's multicast source filter list structure
on closing a socket with a multicast source filter set on an interface
that does not exist any more.

e9fa4f7bd2 [INET]: Use pskb_trim_unique when trimming paged unique skbs
The IPv4/IPv6 datagram output path was using skb_trim to trim paged
packets because they know that the packet has not been cloned yet
(since the packet hasn't been given to anything else in the system).

This broke because skb_trim no longer allows paged packets to be
trimmed.  Paged packets must be given to one of the pskb_trim functions
instead.

This patch adds a new pskb_trim_unique function to cover the IPv4/IPv6
datagram output path scenario and replaces the corresponding skb_trim
calls with it.

dcb7cd97f1 [NETFILTER]: ulog: fix panic on SMP kernels
Fix kernel panic on various SMP machines. The culprit is a null
ub->skb in ulog_send(). If ulog_timer() has already been scheduled on
one CPU and is spinning on the lock, and ipt_ulog_packet() flushes the
queue on another CPU by calling ulog_send() right before it exits,
there will be no skbuff when ulog_timer() acquires the lock and calls
ulog_send(). Cancelling the timer in ulog_send() doesn't help because
it has already been scheduled and is running on the first CPU.

Similar problem exists in ebt_ulog.c and nfnetlink_log.c.

8d1502de27 [IPV4]: Limit rt cache size properly.
From: Kirill Korotaev <dev@sw.ru>

During OpenVZ stress testing we found that UDP traffic with random src
can generate too much excessive rt hash growing leading finally to OOM
and kernel panics.

It was found that for 4GB i686 system (having 1048576 total pages and
  225280 normal zone pages) kernel allocates the following route hash:
syslog: IP route cache hash table entries: 262144 (order: 8, 1048576
bytes) => ip_rt_max_size = 4194304 entries, i.e.  max rt size is
4194304 * 256b = 1Gb of RAM > normal_zone

Attached the patch which removes HASH_HIGHMEM flag from
alloc_large_system_hash() call.

dc49c1f94e [AF_UNIX]: Kernel memory leak fix for af_unix datagram getpeersec patch
From: Catherine Zhang <cxzhang@watson.ibm.com>

This patch implements a cleaner fix for the memory leak problem of the
original unix datagram getpeersec patch.  Instead of creating a
security context each time a unix datagram is sent, we only create the
security context when the receiver requests it.

This new design requires modification of the current
unix_getsecpeer_dgram LSM hook and addition of two new hooks, namely,
secid_to_secctx and release_secctx.  The former retrieves the security
context and the latter releases it.  A hook is required for releasing
the security context because it is up to the security module to decide
how that's done.  In the case of Selinux, it's a simple kfree
operation.

dafee49085 [IPV6]: SNMPv2 "ipv6IfStatsOutFragCreates" counter error
When I tested linux kernel 2.6.71.7 about statistics
"ipv6IfStatsOutFragCreates", and found that it couldn't increase
correctly. The criteria is RFC 2465:

  ipv6IfStatsOutFragCreates OBJECT-TYPE
      SYNTAX      Counter32
      MAX-ACCESS  read-only
      STATUS      current
      DESCRIPTION
         "The number of output datagram fragments that have
         been generated as a result of fragmentation at
         this output interface."
      ::= { ipv6IfStatsEntry 15 }

I think there are two issues in Linux kernel. 
1st:
RFC2465 specifies the counter is "The number of output datagram
fragments...". I think increasing this counter after output a fragment
successfully is better. And it should not be increased even though a
fragment is created but failed to output.

2nd:
If we send a big ICMP/ICMPv6 echo request to a host, and receive
ICMP/ICMPv6 echo reply consisted of some fragments. As we know that in
Linux kernel first fragmentation occurs in ICMP layer(maybe saying
transport layer is better), but this is not the "real"
fragmentation,just do some "pre-fragment" -- allocate space for date,
and form a frag_list, etc. The "real" fragmentation happens in IP layer
-- set offset and MF flag and so on. So I think in "fast path" for
ip_fragment/ip6_fragment, if we send a fragment which "pre-fragment" by
upper layer we should also increase "ipv6IfStatsOutFragCreates".

52499afe40 [TCP]: Process linger2 timeout consistently.
Based upon guidance from Alexey Kuznetsov.

When linger2 is active, we check to see if the fin_wait2
timeout is longer than the timewait.  If it is, we schedule
the keepalive timer for the difference between the timewait
timeout and the fin_wait2 timeout.

When this orphan socket is seen by tcp_keepalive_timer()
it will try to transform this fin_wait2 socket into a
fin_wait2 mini-socket, again if linger2 is active.

Not all paths were setting this initial keepalive timer correctly.
The tcp input path was doing it correctly, but tcp_close() wasn't,
potentially making the socket linger longer than it really needs to.

3687b1dc6f [TCP]: SNMPv2 tcpAttemptFails counter error
Refer to RFC2012, tcpAttemptFails is defined as following:
  tcpAttemptFails OBJECT-TYPE
      SYNTAX      Counter32
      MAX-ACCESS  read-only
      STATUS      current
      DESCRIPTION
              "The number of times TCP connections have made a direct
              transition to the CLOSED state from either the SYN-SENT
              state or the SYN-RCVD state, plus the number of times TCP
              connections have made a direct transition to the LISTEN
              state from the SYN-RCVD state."
      ::= { tcp 7 }

When I lookup into RFC793, I found that the state change should occured
under following condition:
  1. SYN-SENT -> CLOSED
     a) Received ACK,RST segment when SYN-SENT state.

  2. SYN-RCVD -> CLOSED
     b) Received SYN segment when SYN-RCVD state(came from LISTEN).
     c) Received RST segment when SYN-RCVD state(came from SYN-SENT).
     d) Received SYN segment when SYN-RCVD state(came from SYN-SENT).

  3. SYN-RCVD -> LISTEN
     e) Received RST segment when SYN-RCVD state(came from LISTEN).

In my test, those direct state transition can not be counted to
tcpAttemptFails.

f59fc7f30b [IPV4/IPV6]: Setting 0 for unused port field in RAW IP recvmsg().
From: Tetsuo Handa from-linux-kernel@i-love.sakura.ne.jp

The recvmsg() for raw socket seems to return random u16 value
from the kernel stack memory since port field is not initialized.
But I'm not sure this patch is correct.
Does raw socket return any information stored in port field?

[ BSD defines RAW IP recvmsg to return a sin_port value of zero.
  This is described in Steven's TCP/IP Illustrated Volume 2 on
  page 1055, which is discussing the BSD rip_input() implementation. ]

after pskb_expand_head.  Unfortunately pskb_expand_head can't update it for

not allow truesize to be updated by itself.

So the solution for now is to simply update it in IPComp.

6150c22e2a [TCP] tcp_highspeed: Fix AI updates.
I think there is still a problem with the AIMD parameter update in
HighSpeed TCP code.

Line 125~138 of the code (net/ipv4/tcp_highspeed.c):

	/* Update AIMD parameters */
	if (tp->snd_cwnd > hstcp_aimd_vals[ca->ai].cwnd) {
		while (tp->snd_cwnd > hstcp_aimd_vals[ca->ai].cwnd &&
		       ca->ai < HSTCP_AIMD_MAX - 1)
			ca->ai++;
	} else if (tp->snd_cwnd < hstcp_aimd_vals[ca->ai].cwnd) {
		while (tp->snd_cwnd > hstcp_aimd_vals[ca->ai].cwnd &&
		       ca->ai > 0)
			ca->ai--;

In fact, the second part (decreasing ca->ai) never decreases since the
while loop's inequality is in the reverse direction. This leads to
unfairness with multiple flows (once a flow happens to enjoy a higher
ca->ai, it keeps enjoying that even its cwnd decreases)

Here is a tentative fix (I also added a comment, trying to keep the
change clear):

f83ef8c0b5 [IPV6]: Added GSO support for TCPv6
This patch adds GSO support for IPv6 and TCPv6.  This is based on a patch
by Ananda Raju <Ananda.Raju@neterion.com>.  His original description is:

	This patch enables TSO over IPv6. Currently Linux network stacks
	restricts TSO over IPv6 by clearing of the NETIF_F_TSO bit from
	"dev->features". This patch will remove this restriction.

	This patch will introduce a new flag NETIF_F_TSO6 which will be used
	to check whether device supports TSO over IPv6. If device support TSO
	over IPv6 then we don't clear of NETIF_F_TSO and which will make the
	TCP layer to create TSO packets. Any device supporting TSO over IPv6
	will set NETIF_F_TSO6 flag in "dev->features" along with NETIF_F_TSO.

	In case when user disables TSO using ethtool, NETIF_F_TSO will get
	cleared from "dev->features". So even if we have NETIF_F_TSO6 we don't
	get TSO packets created by TCP layer.

	SKB_GSO_TCPV4 renamed to SKB_GSO_TCP to make it generic GSO packet.
	SKB_GSO_UDPV4 renamed to SKB_GSO_UDP as UFO is not a IPv4 feature.
	UFO is supported over IPv6 also

	The following table shows there is significant improvement in
	throughput with normal frames and CPU usage for both normal and jumbo.

bcd7611117 [NET]: Generalise TSO-specific bits from skb_setup_caps
This patch generalises the TSO-specific bits from sk_setup_caps by adding
the sk_gso_type member to struct sock.  This makes sk_setup_caps generic
so that it can be used by TCPv6 or UFO.

The only catch is that whoever uses this must provide a GSO implementation
for their protocol which I think is a fair deal :) For now UFO continues to
live without a GSO implementation which is OK since it doesn't use the sock
caps field at the moment.

dd7271feba [NETFILTER]: SCTP conntrack: fix crash triggered by packet without chunks
When a packet without any chunks is received, the newconntrack variable
in sctp_packet contains an out of bounds value that is used to look up an
pointer from the array of timeouts, which is then dereferenced, resulting
in a crash. Make sure at least a single chunk is present.

Problem noticed by George A. Theall <theall@tenablesecurity.com>

3820c3f3e4 [TCP]: Reset gso_segs if packet is dodgy
I wasn't paranoid enough in verifying GSO information.  A bogus gso_segs
could upset drivers as much as a bogus header would.  Let's reset it in
the per-protocol gso_segment functions.

I didn't verify gso_size because that can be verified by the source of
the dodgy packets.

b0da853703 [NET]: Add ECN support for TSO
In the current TSO implementation, NETIF_F_TSO and ECN cannot be
turned on together in a TCP connection.  The problem is that most
hardware that supports TSO does not handle CWR correctly if it is set
in the TSO packet.  Correct handling requires CWR to be set in the
first packet only if it is set in the TSO header.

This patch adds the ability to turn on NETIF_F_TSO and ECN using
GSO if necessary to handle TSO packets with CWR set.  Hardware
that handles CWR correctly can turn on NETIF_F_TSO_ECN in the dev->
features flag.

All TSO packets with CWR set will have the SKB_GSO_TCPV4_ECN set.  If
the output device does not have the NETIF_F_TSO_ECN feature set, GSO
will split the packet up correctly with CWR only set in the first
segment.

With help from Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>.

Since ECN can always be enabled with TSO, the SOCK_NO_LARGESEND sock
flag is completely removed.
