2006-09-22[XFRM]: Hash policies when non-prefixed.David S. Miller
This idea is from Alexey Kuznetsov. It is common for policies to be non-prefixed. And for that case we can optimize lookups, insert, etc. quite a bit. For each direction, we have a dynamically sized policy hash table for non-prefixed policies. We also have a hash table on policy->index. For prefixed policies, we have a list per-direction which we will consult on lookups when a non-prefix hashtable lookup fails. This still isn't as efficient as I would like it. There are four immediate problems: 1) Lots of excessive refcounting, which can be fixed just like xfrm_state was 2) We do 2 hash probes on insert, one to look for dups and one to allocate a unique policy->index. Althought I wonder how much this matters since xfrm_state inserts do up to 3 hash probes and that seems to perform fine. 3) xfrm_policy_insert() is very complex because of the priority ordering and entry replacement logic. 4) Lots of counter bumping, in addition to policy refcounts, in the form of xfrm_policy_count[]. This is merely used to let code path(s) know that some IPSEC rules exist. So this count is indexed per-direction, maybe that is overkill. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2006-09-22[XFRM]: Do not flush all bundles on SA insert.David S. Miller
Instead, simply set all potentially aliasing existing xfrm_state objects to have the current generation counter value. This will make routes get relooked up the next time an existing route mentioning these aliased xfrm_state objects gets used, via xfrm_dst_check(). Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-09-22[XFRM]: Add generation count to xfrm_state and xfrm_dst.David S. Miller
Each xfrm_state inserted gets a new generation counter value. When a bundle is created, the xfrm_dst objects get the current generation counter of the xfrm_state they will attach to at dst->xfrm. xfrm_bundle_ok() will return false if it sees an xfrm_dst with a generation count different from the generation count of the xfrm_state that dst points to. This provides a facility by which to passively and cheaply invalidate cached IPSEC routes during SA database changes. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2006-09-22[XFRM] POLICY: sub policy support.Masahide NAKAMURA
Sub policy is introduced. Main and sub policy are applied the same flow. (Policy that current kernel uses is named as main.) It is required another transformation policy management to keep IPsec and Mobile IPv6 lives separate. Policy which lives shorter time in kernel should be a sub i.e. normally main is for IPsec and sub is for Mobile IPv6. (Such usage as two IPsec policies on different database can be used, too.) Limitation or TODOs: - Sub policy is not supported for per socket one (it is always inserted as main). - Current kernel makes cached outbound with flowi to skip searching database. However this patch makes it disabled only when "two policies are used and the first matched one is bypass case" because neither flowi nor bundle information knows about transformation template size.

2006-09-22[XFRM] IPV6: Restrict bundle reusingMasahide NAKAMURA
For outbound transformation, bundle is checked whether it is suitable for current flow to be reused or not. In such IPv6 case as below, transformation may apply incorrect bundle for the flow instead of creating another bundle: - The policy selector has destination prefix length < 128 (Two or more addresses can be matched it) - Its bundle holds dst entry of default route whose prefix length < 128 (Previous traffic was used such route as next hop) - The policy and the bundle were used a transport mode state and this time flow address is not matched the bundled state. This issue is found by Mobile IPv6 usage to protect mobility signaling by IPsec, but it is not a Mobile IPv6 specific. This patch adds strict check to xfrm_bundle_ok() for each state mode and address when prefix length is less than 128.

2006-08-13[IPSEC]: Validate properly in xfrm_dst_check()David S. Miller
If dst->obsolete is -1, this is a signal from the bundle creator that we want the XFRM dst and the dsts that it references to be validated on every use. I misunderstood this intention when I changed xfrm_dst_check() to always return NULL. Now, when we purge a dst entry, by running dst_free() on it. This will set the dst->obsolete to a positive integer, and we want to return NULL in that case so that the socket does a relookup for the route. Thus, if dst->obsolete<0, let stale_bundle() validate the state, else always return NULL. In general, we need to do things more intelligently here because we flush too much state during rule changes. Herbert Xu has some ideas wherein the key manager gives us some help in this area. We can also use smarter state management algorithms inside of the kernel as well. Signed-off-by: David S.

2006-06-17[IPSEC] xfrm: Undo afinfo lock proliferationHerbert Xu
The number of locks used to manage afinfo structures can easily be reduced down to one each for policy and state respectively. This is based on the observation that the write locks are only held by module insertion/removal which are very rare events so there is no need to further differentiate between the insertion of modules like ipv6 versus esp6. The removal of the read locks in xfrm4_policy.c/xfrm6_policy.c might look suspicious at first. However, after you realise that nobody ever takes the corresponding write lock you'll feel better :) As far as I can gather it's an attempt to guard against the removal of the corresponding modules. Since neither module can be unloaded at all we can leave it to whoever fixes up IPv6 unloading :) Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

2006-02-27[IPSEC]: Kill post_input hook and do NAT-T in esp_input directlyHerbert Xu
The only reason post_input exists at all is that it gives us the potential to adjust the checksums incrementally in future which we ought to do. However, after thinking about it for a bit we can adjust the checksums without using this post_input stuff at all. The crucial point is that only the inner-most NAT-T SA needs to be considered when adjusting checksums. What's more, the checksum adjustment comes down to a single u32 due to the linearity of IP checksums. We just happen to have a spare u32 lying around in our skb structure :) When ip_summed is set to CHECKSUM_NONE on input, the value of skb->csum is currently unused. All we have to do is to make that the checksum adjustment and voila, there goes all the post_input and decap structures! I've left in the decap data structures for now since it's intricately woven into the sec_path stuff. We can kill them later too.

2006-02-13[IPSEC]: Fix strange IPsec freeze.Herbert Xu
Problem discovered and initial patch by Olaf Kirch: there's a problem with IPsec that has been bugging some of our users for the last couple of kernel revs. Every now and then, IPsec will freeze the machine completely. This is with openswan user land, and with kernels up to and including 2.6.16-rc2. I managed to debug this a little, and what happens is that we end up looping in xfrm_lookup, and never get out. With a bit of debug printks added, I can this happening: ip_route_output_flow calls xfrm_lookup xfrm_find_bundle returns NULL (apparently we're in the middle of negotiating a new SA or something) We therefore call xfrm_tmpl_resolve. This returns EAGAIN We go to sleep, waiting for a policy update. Then we loop back to the top Apparently, the dst_orig that was passed into xfrm_lookup has been dropped from the routing table (obsolete=2) This leads to the endless loop, because we now create a new bundle, check the new bundle and find it's stale (stale_bundle -> xfrm_bundle_ok -> dst_check() return 0) People have been testing with the patch below, which seems to fix the problem partially. They still see connection hangs however (things only clear up when they start a new ping or new ssh). So the patch is obvsiouly not sufficient, and something else seems to go wrong. I'm grateful for any hints you may have... I suggest that we simply bail out always. If the dst decides to die on us later on, the packet will be dropped anyway. So there is no great urgency to retry here. Once we have the proper resolution queueing, we can then do the retry again.

2006-01-03[LSM-IPSec]: Security association restriction.Trent Jaeger
This patch series implements per packet access control via the extension of the Linux Security Modules (LSM) interface by hooks in the XFRM and pfkey subsystems that leverage IPSec security associations to label packets. Extensions to the SELinux LSM are included that leverage the patch for this purpose. This patch implements the changes necessary to the XFRM subsystem, pfkey interface, ipv4/ipv6, and xfrm_user interface to restrict a socket to use only authorized security associations (or no security association) to send/receive network packets. Patch purpose: The patch is designed to enable access control per packets based on the strongly authenticated IPSec security association. Such access controls augment the existing ones based on network interface and IP address. The former are very coarse-grained, and the latter can be spoofed. By using IPSec, the system can control access to remote hosts based on cryptographic keys generated using the IPSec mechanism. This enables access control on a per-machine basis or per-application if the remote machine is running the same mechanism and trusted to enforce the access control policy. Patch design approach: The overall approach is that policy (xfrm_policy) entries set by user-level programs (e.g., setkey for ipsec-tools) are extended with a security context that is used at policy selection time in the XFRM subsystem to restrict the sockets that can send/receive packets via security associations (xfrm_states) that are built from those policies. A presentation available at www.selinux-symposium.org/2005/presentations/session2/2-3-jaeger.pdf from the SELinux symposium describes the overall approach. Patch implementation details: On output, the policy retrieved (via xfrm_policy_lookup or xfrm_sk_policy_lookup) must be authorized for the security context of the socket and the same security context is required for resultant security association (retrieved or negotiated via racoon in ipsec-tools). This is enforced in xfrm_state_find. On input, the policy retrieved must also be authorized for the socket (at __xfrm_policy_check), and the security context of the policy must also match the security association being used. The patch has virtually no impact on packets that do not use IPSec. The existing Netfilter (outgoing) and LSM rcv_skb hooks are used as before. Also, if IPSec is used without security contexts, the impact is minimal. The LSM must allow such policies to be selected for the combination of socket and remote machine, but subsequent IPSec processing proceeds as in the original case. Testing: The pfkey interface is tested using the ipsec-tools. ipsec-tools have been modified (a separate ipsec-tools patch is available for version 0.5) that supports assignment of xfrm_policy entries and security associations with security contexts via setkey and the negotiation using the security contexts via racoon. The xfrm_user interface is tested via ad hoc programs that set security contexts. These programs are also available from me, and contain programs for setting, getting, and deleting policy for testing this interface. Testing of sa functions was done by tracing kernel behavior.

2005-12-22[IPSEC]: Fix policy updates missed by socketsDavid S. Miller
The problem is that when new policies are inserted, sockets do not see the update (but all new route lookups do). This bug is related to the SA insertion stale route issue solved recently, and this policy visibility problem can be fixed in a similar way. The fix is to flush out the bundles of all policies deeper than the policy being inserted. Consider beginning state of "outgoing" direction policy list: policy A --> policy B --> policy C --> policy D First, realize that inserting a policy into a list only potentially changes IPSEC routes for that direction. Therefore we need not bother considering the policies for other directions. We need only consider the existing policies in the list we are doing the inserting. Consider new policy "B'", inserted after B. policy A --> policy B --> policy B' --> policy C --> policy D Two rules: 1) If policy A or policy B matched before the insertion, they appear before B' and thus would still match after inserting B' 2) Policy C and D, now "shadowed" and after policy B', potentially contain stale routes because policy B' might be selected instead of them. Therefore we only need flush routes assosciated with policies appearing after a newly inserted policy, if any. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2005-08-29[NET]: use __read_mostly on kmem_cache_t , DEFINE_SNMP_STAT pointersEric Dumazet
This patch puts mostly read only data in the right section (read_mostly), to help sharing of these data between CPUS without memory ping pongs. On one of my production machine, tcp_statistics was sitting in a heavily modified cache line, so *every* SNMP update had to force a reload.

2005-06-20[IPSEC]: Add xfrm_init_stateHerbert Xu
This patch adds xfrm_init_state which is simply a wrapper that calls xfrm_get_type and subsequently x->type->init_state. It also gets rid of the unused args argument. Abstracting it out allows us to add common initialisation code, e.g., to set family-specific flags. The add_time setting in xfrm_user.c was deleted because it's already set by xfrm_state_alloc.

2005-06-18[IPSEC] Kill spurious hard expire messagesHerbert Xu
This patch ensures that the hard state/policy expire notifications are only sent when the state/policy is successfully removed from their respective tables. As it is, it's possible for a state/policy to both expire through reaching a hard limit, as well as being deleted by the user. Note that this behaviour isn't actually forbidden by RFC 2367. However, it is a quality of implementation issue. As an added bonus, the restructuring in this patch will help eventually in moving the expire notifications from softirq context into process context, thus improving their reliability. One important side-effect from this change is that SAs reaching their hard byte/packet limits are now deleted immediately, just like SAs that have reached their hard time limits. Previously they were announced immediately but only deleted after 30 seconds. This is bad because it prevents the system from issuing an ACQUIRE command until the existing state was deleted by the user or expires after the time is up. In the scenario where the expire notification was lost this introduces a 30 second delay into the system for no good reason. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

2005-05-03[IPSEC]: Store idev entriesHerbert Xu
I found a bug that stopped IPsec/IPv6 from working. About a month ago IPv6 started using rt6i_idev->dev on the cached socket dst entries. If the cached socket dst entry is IPsec, then rt6i_idev will be NULL. Since we want to look at the rt6i_idev of the original route in this case, the easiest fix is to store rt6i_idev in the IPsec dst entry just as we do for a number of other IPv6 route attributes. Unfortunately this means that we need some new code to handle the references to rt6i_idev. That's why this patch is bigger than it would otherwise be. I've also done the same thing for IPv4 since it is conceivable that once these idev attributes start getting used for accounting, we probably need to dereference them for IPv4 IPsec entries too.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
