net: Fix memory leak if TPROXY used with TCP early demux
I see a memory leak when using a transparent HTTP proxy using TPROXY together with TCP early demux and Kernel v3.8.13.15 (Ubuntu stable): unreferenced object 0xffff88008cba4a40 (size 1696): comm "softirq", pid 0, jiffies 4294944115 (age 8907.520s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 0a e0 20 6a 40 04 1b 37 92 be 32 e2 e8 b4 00 00 .. j@..7..2..... 02 00 07 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ backtrace: [<ffffffff810b710a>] kmem_cache_alloc+0xad/0xb9 [<ffffffff81270185>] sk_prot_alloc+0x29/0xc5 [<ffffffff812702cf>] sk_clone_lock+0x14/0x283 [<ffffffff812aaf3a>] inet_csk_clone_lock+0xf/0x7b [<ffffffff8129a893>] netlink_broadcast+0x14/0x16 [<ffffffff812c1573>] tcp_create_openreq_child+0x1b/0x4c3 [<ffffffff812c033e>] tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock+0x38/0x25d [<ffffffff812c13e4>] tcp_check_req+0x25c/0x3d0 [<ffffffff812bf87a>] tcp_v4_do_rcv+0x287/0x40e [<ffffffff812a08a7>] ip_route_input_noref+0x843/0xa55 [<ffffffff812bfeca>] tcp_v4_rcv+0x4c9/0x725 [<ffffffff812a26f4>] ip_local_deliver_finish+0xe9/0x154 [<ffffffff8127a927>] __netif_receive_skb+0x4b2/0x514 [<ffffffff8127aa77>] process_backlog+0xee/0x1c5 [<ffffffff8127c949>] net_rx_action+0xa7/0x200 [<ffffffff81209d86>] add_interrupt_randomness+0x39/0x157 But there are many more, resulting in the machine going OOM after some days. From looking at the TPROXY code, and with help from Florian, I see that the memory leak is introduced in tcp_v4_early_demux(): void tcp_v4_early_demux(struct sk_buff *skb) { /* ... */ iph = ip_hdr(skb); th = tcp_hdr(skb); if (th->doff < sizeof(struct tcphdr) / 4) return; sk = __inet_lookup_established(dev_net(skb->dev), &tcp_hashinfo, iph->saddr, th->source, iph->daddr, ntohs(th->dest), skb->skb_iif); if (sk) { skb->sk = sk; where the socket is assigned unconditionally to skb->sk, also bumping the refcnt on it. This is problematic, because in our case the skb has already a socket assigned in the TPROXY target. This then results in the leak I see. The very same issue seems to be with IPv6, but haven't tested. Reviewed-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Signed-off-by: Holger Eitzenberger <holger@eitzenberger.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
