Now sctp uses chunk->prsctp_param to save the prsctp param for all the
prsctp polices, we didn't need to introduce prsctp_param to sctp_chunk.
We can just use chunk->sinfo.sinfo_timetolive for RTX and BUF polices,
and reuse msg->expires_at for TTL policy, as the prsctp polices and old
expires policy are mutual exclusive.
This patch is to remove prsctp_param from sctp_chunk, and reuse msg's
expires_at for TTL and chunk's sinfo.sinfo_timetolive for RTX and BUF
polices.
Note that sctp can't use chunk's sinfo.sinfo_timetolive for TTL policy,
as it needs a u64 variables to save the expires_at time.
This one also fixes the "netperf-Throughput_Mbps -37.2% regression"
issue.

To something more meaningful these days, specially because this is
working on packet headers or lengths and which are not tied to any CPU
arch but to the protocol itself.
So, WORD_TRUNC becomes SCTP_TRUNC4 and WORD_ROUND becomes SCTP_PAD4.

Identifying address family operations during rx path is not something
expensive but it's ugly to the eye to have it done multiple times,
specially when we already validated it during initial rx processing.
This patch takes advantage of the now shared sctp_input_cb and make the
pointer to the operations readily available.

prsctp PRIO policy is a policy to abandon lower priority chunks when
asoc doesn't have enough snd buffer, so that the current chunk with
higher priority can be queued successfully.
Similar to TTL/RTX policy, we will set the priority of the chunk to
prsctp_param with sinfo->sinfo_timetolive in sctp_set_prsctp_policy().
So if PRIO policy is enabled, msg->expire_at won't work.
asoc->sent_cnt_removable will record how many chunks can be checked to
remove. If priority policy is enabled, when the chunk is queued into
the out_queue, we will increase sent_cnt_removable. When the chunk is
moved to abandon_queue or dequeue and free, we will decrease
sent_cnt_removable.
In sctp_sendmsg, we will check if there is enough snd buffer for current
msg and if sent_cnt_removable is not 0. Then try to abandon chunks in
sctp_prune_prsctp when sendmsg from the retransmit/transmited queue, and
free chunks from out_queue in right order until the abandon+free size >
msg_len - sctp_wfree. For the abandon size, we have to wait until it
sends FORWARD TSN, receives the sack and the chunks are really freed.

prsctp RTX policy is a policy to abandon chunks when they are
retransmitted beyond the max count.
This patch uses sent_count to count how many times one chunk has
been sent, and prsctp_param is the max rtx count, which is from
sinfo->sinfo_timetolive in sctp_set_prsctp_policy(). So similar
to TTL policy, if RTX policy is enabled, msg->expire_at won't
work.
Then in sctp_chunk_abandoned, this patch checks if chunk->sent_count
is bigger than chunk->prsctp_param to abandon this chunk.

prsctp TTL policy is a policy to abandon chunks when they expire
at the specific time in local stack. It's similar with expires_at
in struct sctp_datamsg.
This patch uses sinfo->sinfo_timetolive to set the specific time for
TTL policy. sinfo->sinfo_timetolive is also used for msg->expires_at.
So if prsctp_enable or TTL policy is not enabled, msg->expires_at
still works as before.

According to section 4.5 of rfc7496, prsctp_enable should be per asoc.
We will add prsctp_enable to both asoc and ep, and replace the places
where it used net.sctp->prsctp_enable with asoc->prsctp_enable.
ep->prsctp_enable will be initialized with net.sctp->prsctp_enable, and
asoc->prsctp_enable will be initialized with ep->prsctp_enable. We can
also modify it's value through sockopt SCTP_PR_SUPPORTED.

Currently on high rate SCTP streams the heartbeat timer refresh can
consume quite a lot of resources as timer updates are costly and it
contains a random factor, which a) is also costly and b) invalidates
mod_timer() optimization for not editing a timer to the same value.
It may even cause the timer to be slightly advanced, for no good reason.
As suggested by David Laight this patch now removes this timer update
from hot path by leaving the timer on and re-evaluating upon its
expiration if the heartbeat is still needed or not, similarly to what is
done for TCP. If it's not needed anymore the timer is re-scheduled to
the new timeout, considering the time already elapsed.
For this, we now record the last tx timestamp per transport, updated in
the same spots as hb timer was restarted on tx. Also split up
sctp_transport_reset_timers into sctp_transport_reset_t3_rtx and
sctp_transport_reset_hb_timer, so we can re-arm T3 without re-arming the
heartbeat one.
On loopback with MTU of 65535 and data chunks with 1636, so that we
have a considerable amount of chunks without stressing system calls,
netperf -t SCTP_STREAM -l 30, perf looked like this before:

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
"Highlights:
1) Support more Realtek wireless chips, from Jes Sorenson.
2) New BPF types for per-cpu hash and arrap maps, from Alexei
Starovoitov.
3) Make several TCP sysctls per-namespace, from Nikolay Borisov.
4) Allow the use of SO_REUSEPORT in order to do per-thread processing
of incoming TCP/UDP connections. The muxing can be done using a
BPF program which hashes the incoming packet. From Craig Gallek.
5) Add a multiplexer for TCP streams, to provide a messaged based
interface. BPF programs can be used to determine the message
boundaries. From Tom Herbert.
6) Add 802.1AE MACSEC support, from Sabrina Dubroca.
7) Avoid factorial complexity when taking down an inetdev interface
with lots of configured addresses. We were doing things like
traversing the entire address less for each address removed, and
flushing the entire netfilter conntrack table for every address as
well.
8) Add and use SKB bulk free infrastructure, from Jesper Brouer.
9) Allow offloading u32 classifiers to hardware, and implement for
ixgbe, from John Fastabend.
10) Allow configuring IRQ coalescing parameters on a per-queue basis,
from Kan Liang.
11) Extend ethtool so that larger link mode masks can be supported.
From David Decotigny.
12) Introduce devlink, which can be used to configure port link types
(ethernet vs Infiniband, etc.), port splitting, and switch device
level attributes as a whole. From Jiri Pirko.
13) Hardware offload support for flower classifiers, from Amir Vadai.
14) Add "Local Checksum Offload". Basically, for a tunneled packet
the checksum of the outer header is 'constant' (because with the
checksum field filled into the inner protocol header, the payload
of the outer frame checksums to 'zero'), and we can take advantage
of that in various ways. From Edward Cree"

Currently sctp_sendmsg() triggers some calls that will allocate memory
with GFP_ATOMIC even when not necessary. In the case of
sctp_packet_transmit it will allocate a linear skb that will be used to
construct the packet and this may cause sends to fail due to ENOMEM more
often than anticipated specially with big MTUs.
This patch thus allows it to inherit gfp flags from upper calls so that
it can use GFP_KERNEL if it was triggered by a sctp_sendmsg call or
similar. All others, like retransmits or flushes started from BH, are
still allocated using GFP_ATOMIC.
In netperf tests this didn't result in any performance drawbacks when
memory is not too fragmented and made it trigger ENOMEM way less often.

Dmitry reported that sctp_add_bind_addr may read more bytes than
expected in case the parameter is a IPv4 addr supplied by the user
through calls such as sctp_bindx_add(), because it always copies
sizeof(union sctp_addr) while the buffer may be just a struct
sockaddr_in, which is smaller.
This patch then fixes it by limiting the memcpy to the min between the
union size and a (new parameter) provided addr size. Where possible this
parameter still is the size of that union, except for reading from
user-provided buffers, which then it accounts for protocol type.

SCTP echoes a cookie o INIT ACK chunks that contains a timestamp, for
detecting stale cookies. This cookie is echoed back to the server by the
client and then that timestamp is checked.
Thing is, if the listening socket is using packet timestamping, the
cookie is encoded with ktime_get() value and checked against
ktime_get_real(), as done by __net_timestamp().
The fix is to sctp also use ktime_get_real(), so we can compare bananas
with bananas later no matter if packet timestamping was enabled or not.

We want to avoid using time_t in the kernel because of the y2038
overflow problem. The use in sctp is not for storing seconds at
all, but instead uses microseconds and is passed as 32-bit
on all machines.
This patch changes the type to u32, which better fits the use.

RFC 5061:
This is an opaque integer assigned by the sender to identify each
request parameter. The receiver of the ASCONF Chunk will copy this
32-bit value into the ASCONF Response Correlation ID field of the
ASCONF-ACK response parameter. The sender of the ASCONF can use this
same value in the ASCONF-ACK to find which request the response is
for. Note that the receiver MUST NOT change this 32-bit value.
Address Parameter: TLV
This field contains an IPv4 or IPv6 address parameter, as described
in Section 3.3.2.1 of [RFC4960].

in sctp_process_asconf(), we get address parameter from the beginning of
the addip params. but we never check if it's really there. if the addr
param is not there, it still can pass sctp_verify_asconf(), then to be
handled by sctp_process_asconf(), it will not be safe.
so add a code in sctp_verify_asconf() to check the address parameter is in
the beginning, or return false to send abort.
note that this can also detect multiple address parameters, and reject it.

sctp_process_param
When making use of RFC5061, section 4.2.4. for setting the primary IP
address, we're passing a wrong parameter header to param_type2af(),
resulting always in NULL being returned.
At this point, param.p points to a sctp_addip_param struct, containing
a sctp_paramhdr (type = 0xc004, length = var), and crr_id as a correlation
id. Followed by that, as also presented in RFC5061 section 4.2.4., comes
the actual sctp_addr_param, which also contains a sctp_paramhdr, but
this time with the correct type SCTP_PARAM_IPV{4,6}_ADDRESS that
param_type2af() can make use of. Since we already hold a pointer to
addr_param from previous line, just reuse it for param_type2af().

packet
An SCTP server doing ASCONF will panic on malformed INIT ping-of-death
in the form of:
------------ INIT[PARAM: SET_PRIMARY_IP] ------------>
While the INIT chunk parameter verification dissects through many things
in order to detect malformed input, it misses to actually check parameters
inside of parameters. E.g. RFC5061, section 4.2.4 proposes a 'set primary
IP address' parameter in ASCONF, which has as a subparameter an address
parameter.
So an attacker may send a parameter type other than SCTP_PARAM_IPV4_ADDRESS
or SCTP_PARAM_IPV6_ADDRESS, param_type2af() will subsequently return 0
and thus sctp_get_af_specific() returns NULL, too, which we then happily
dereference unconditionally through af->from_addr_param().

This can be triggered e.g., through a simple scripted nmap
connection scan injecting the chunk after the handshake, for
example, ...
-------------- INIT[ASCONF; ASCONF_ACK] ------------->
<----------- INIT-ACK[ASCONF; ASCONF_ACK] ------------
-------------------- COOKIE-ECHO -------------------->
<-------------------- COOKIE-ACK ---------------------
------------------ ASCONF; UNKNOWN ------------------>
... where ASCONF chunk of length 280 contains 2 parameters ...
1) Add IP address parameter (param length: 16)
2) Add/del IP address parameter (param length: 255)
... followed by an UNKNOWN chunk of e.g. 4 bytes. Here, the
Address Parameter in the ASCONF chunk is even missing, too.
This is just an example and similarly-crafted ASCONF chunks
could be used just as well.
The ASCONF chunk passes through sctp_verify_asconf() as all
parameters passed sanity checks, and after walking, we ended
up successfully at the chunk end boundary, and thus may invoke
sctp_process_asconf(). Parameter walking is done with
WORD_ROUND() to take padding into account.
In sctp_process_asconf()'s TLV processing, we may fail in
sctp_process_asconf_param() e.g., due to removal of the IP
address that is also the source address of the packet containing
the ASCONF chunk, and thus we need to add all TLVs after the
failure to our ASCONF response to remote via helper function
sctp_add_asconf_response(), which basically invokes a
sctp_addto_chunk() adding the error parameters to the given
skb.
When walking to the next parameter this time, we proceed
with ...
length = ntohs(asconf_param->param_hdr.length);
asconf_param = (void *)asconf_param + length;
... instead of the WORD_ROUND()'ed length, thus resulting here
in an off-by-one that leads to reading the follow-up garbage
parameter length of 12336, and thus throwing an skb_over_panic
for the reply when trying to sctp_addto_chunk() next time,
which implicitly calls the skb_put() with that length.
Fix it by using sctp_walk_params() [ which is also used in
INIT parameter processing ] macro in the verification *and*
in ASCONF processing: it will make sure we don't spill over,
that we walk parameters WORD_ROUND()'ed. Moreover, we're being
more defensive and guard against unknown parameter types and
missized addresses.

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
What happens while auth_enable=0 in that case is, that
ep->auth_hmacs is initialized to NULL in sctp_auth_init_hmacs()
when endpoint is being created.
After that point, if an admin switches over to auth_enable=1,
the machine can crash due to NULL pointer dereference during
reception of an INIT chunk. When we enter sctp_process_init()
via sctp_sf_do_5_1B_init() in order to respond to an INIT chunk,
the INIT verification succeeds and while we walk and process
all INIT params via sctp_process_param() we find that
net->sctp.auth_enable is set, therefore do not fall through,
but invoke sctp_auth_asoc_set_default_hmac() instead, and thus,
dereference what we have set to NULL during endpoint
initialization phase.
The fix is to make auth_enable immutable by caching its value
during endpoint initialization, so that its original value is
being carried along until destruction. The bug seems to originate
from the very first days.
Fix in joint work with Daniel Borkmann.

While working on ec0223ec48a9 ("net: sctp: fix sctp_sf_do_5_1D_ce to

Running the same reproducer as in ec0223ec48a9 and by unconditionally

sctp_sf_do_5_1D_ce() receive path lets kmemleak detector bark about
the unfreed chunk->auth_chunk skb clone:

What happens is that commit bbd0d59809f9 clones the skb containing
the AUTH chunk in sctp_endpoint_bh_rcv() when having the edge case
that an endpoint requires COOKIE-ECHO chunks to be authenticated:
---------- INIT[RANDOM; CHUNKS; HMAC-ALGO] ---------->
<------- INIT-ACK[RANDOM; CHUNKS; HMAC-ALGO] ---------
------------------ AUTH; COOKIE-ECHO ---------------->
<-------------------- COOKIE-ACK ---------------------
When we enter sctp_sf_do_5_1D_ce() and before we actually get to
the point where we process (and subsequently free) a non-NULL
chunk->auth_chunk, we could hit the "goto nomem_init" path from
an error condition and thus leave the cloned skb around w/o
freeing it.
The fix is to centrally free such clones in sctp_chunk_destroy()
handler that is invoked from sctp_chunk_free() after all refs have
dropped; and also move both kfree_skb(chunk->auth_chunk) there,
so that chunk->auth_chunk is either NULL (since sctp_chunkify()
allocs new chunks through kmem_cache_zalloc()) or non-NULL with
a valid skb pointer. chunk->skb and chunk->auth_chunk are the
only skbs in the sctp_chunk structure that need to be handeled.
While at it, we should use consume_skb() for both. It is the same
as dev_kfree_skb() but more appropriately named as we are not
a device but a protocol. Also, this effectively replaces the
kfree_skb() from both invocations into consume_skb(). Functions
are the same only that kfree_skb() assumes that the frame was
being dropped after a failure (e.g. for tools like drop monitor),
usage of consume_skb() seems more appropriate in function
sctp_chunk_destroy() though.

We should get rid of all own SCTP debug printk macros and use the ones
that the kernel offers anyway instead. This makes the code more readable
and conform to the kernel code, and offers all the features of dynamic
debbuging that pr_debug() et al has, such as only turning on/off portions
of debug messages at runtime through debugfs. The runtime cost of having
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG enabled, but none of the debug statements printing,
is negligible [1]. If kernel debugging is completly turned off, then these
statements will also compile into "empty" functions.
While we're at it, we also need to change the Kconfig option as it /now/
only refers to the ifdef'ed code portions in outqueue.c that enable further
debugging/tracing of SCTP transaction fields. Also, since SCTP_ASSERT code
was enabled with this Kconfig option and has now been removed, we
transform those code parts into WARNs resp. where appropriate BUG_ONs so
that those bugs can be more easily detected as probably not many people
have SCTP debugging permanently turned on.
To turn on all SCTP debugging, the following steps are needed:
# mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug
# echo -n 'module sctp +p' > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control
This can be done more fine-grained on a per file, per line basis and others
as described in [2].

Currently, SCTP code defines its own timeval functions (since timeval
is rarely used inside the kernel by others), namely tv_lt() and
TIMEVAL_ADD() macros, that operate on SCTP cookie expiration.
We might as well remove all those, and operate directly on ktime
structures for a couple of reasons: ktime is available on all archs;
complexity of ktime calculations depending on the arch is less than
(reduces to a simple arithmetic operations on archs with
BITS_PER_LONG == 64 or CONFIG_KTIME_SCALAR) or equal to timeval
functions (other archs); code becomes more readable; macros can be
thrown out.

SCTP_STATIC is just another define for the static keyword. It's use
is inconsistent in the SCTP code anyway and it was introduced in the
initial implementation of SCTP in 2.5. We have a regression suite in
lksctp-tools, but this is for user space only, so noone makes use of
this macro anymore. The kernel test suite for 2.5 is incompatible with
the current SCTP code anyway.
So simply Remove it, to be more consistent with the rest of the kernel
code.

SCTP_GET_ASSOC_STATS call
The current SCTP stack is lacking a mechanism to have per association
statistics. This is an implementation modeled after OpenSolaris'
SCTP_GET_ASSOC_STATS.
Userspace part will follow on lksctp if/when there is a general ACK on
this.
V4:
- Move ipackets++ before q->immediate.func() for consistency reasons
- Move sctp_max_rto() at the end of sctp_transport_update_rto() to avoid
returning bogus RTO values
- return asoc->rto_min when max_obs_rto value has not changed
V3:
- Increase ictrlchunks in sctp_assoc_bh_rcv() as well
- Move ipackets++ to sctp_inq_push()
- return 0 when no rto updates took place since the last call
V2:
- Implement partial retrieval of stat struct to cope for future expansion
- Kill the rtxpackets counter as it cannot be precise anyway
- Rename outseqtsns to outofseqtsns to make it clearer that these are out
of sequence unexpected TSNs
- Move asoc->ipackets++ under a lock to avoid potential miscounts
- Fold asoc->opackets++ into the already existing asoc check
- Kill unneeded (q->asoc) test when increasing rtxchunks
- Do not count octrlchunks if sending failed (SCTP_XMIT_OK != 0)
- Don't count SHUTDOWNs as SACKs
- Move SCTP_GET_ASSOC_STATS to the private space API
- Adjust the len check in sctp_getsockopt_assoc_stats() to allow for
future struct growth
- Move association statistics in their own struct
- Update idupchunks when we send a SACK with dup TSNs
- return min_rto in max_rto when RTO has not changed. Also return the
transport when max_rto last changed.

In the event that an association exceeds its max_retrans attempts, we should
send an ABORT chunk indicating that we are closing the assocation as a result.
Because of the nature of the error, its unlikely to be received, but its a nice
clean way to close the association if it does make it through, and it will give
anyone watching via tcpdump a clue as to what happened.

It was noticed recently that when we send data on a transport, its possible that
we might bundle a sack that arrived on a different transport. While this isn't
a major problem, it does go against the SHOULD requirement in section 6.4 of RFC
2960:
An endpoint SHOULD transmit reply chunks (e.g., SACK, HEARTBEAT ACK,
etc.) to the same destination transport address from which it
received the DATA or control chunk to which it is replying. This
rule should also be followed if the endpoint is bundling DATA chunks
together with the reply chunk.
This patch seeks to correct that. It restricts the bundling of sack operations
to only those transports which have moved the ctsn of the association forward
since the last sack. By doing this we guarantee that we only bundle outbound
saks on a transport that has received a chunk since the last sack. This brings
us into stricter compliance with the RFC.
Vlad had initially suggested that we strictly allow only sack bundling on the
transport that last moved the ctsn forward. While this makes sense, I was
concerned that doing so prevented us from bundling in the case where we had
received chunks that moved the ctsn on multiple transports. In those cases, the
RFC allows us to select any of the transports having received chunks to bundle
the sack on. so I've modified the approach to allow for that, by adding a state
variable to each transport that tracks weather it has moved the ctsn since the
last sack. This I think keeps our behavior (and performance), close enough to
our current profile that I think we can do this without a sysctl knob to
enable/disable it.
