2016-07-13sctp: avoid identifying address family many times for a chunkMarcelo Ricardo Leitner
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.

2016-07-11sctp: implement prsctp PRIO policyXin Long
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. Signed-off-by: Xin Long <lucien.xin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2016-07-11sctp: implement prsctp RTX policyXin Long
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. Signed-off-by: Xin Long <lucien.xin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2016-07-11sctp: implement prsctp TTL policyXin Long
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. Signed-off-by: Xin Long <lucien.xin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

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.

2016-04-10sctp: avoid refreshing heartbeat timer too oftenMarcelo Ricardo Leitner
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: Samples: 103K of event 'cpu-clock', Event count (approx.): 25833000000 Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol + 6,15% netperf [kernel.vmlinux] [k] copy_user_enhanced_fast_string - 5,43% netperf [kernel.vmlinux] [k] _raw_write_unlock_irqrestore - _raw_write_unlock_irqrestore - 96,54% _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore - 36,14% mod_timer + 97,24% sctp_transport_reset_timers + 2,76% sctp_do_sm + 33,65% __wake_up_sync_key + 28,77% sctp_ulpq_tail_event + 1,40% del_timer - 1,84% mod_timer + 99,03% sctp_transport_reset_timers + 0,97% sctp_do_sm + 1,50% sctp_ulpq_tail_event And after this patch, now with netperf -l 60: Samples: 230K of event 'cpu-clock', Event count (approx.): 57707250000 Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol + 5,65% netperf [kernel.vmlinux] [k] memcpy_erms + 5,59% netperf [kernel.vmlinux] [k] copy_user_enhanced_fast_string - 5,05% netperf [kernel.vmlinux] [k] _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore - _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore + 49,89% __wake_up_sync_key + 45,68% sctp_ulpq_tail_event - 2,85% mod_timer + 76,51% sctp_transport_reset_t3_rtx + 23,49% sctp_do_sm + 1,55% del_timer + 2,50% netperf [sctp] [k] sctp_datamsg_from_user + 2,26% netperf [sctp] [k] sctp_sendmsg Throughput-wise, from 6800mbps without the patch to 7050mbps with it, ~3.7%.

2016-03-13sctp: allow sctp_transmit_packet and others to use gfpMarcelo Ricardo Leitner
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.

2016-03-08sctp: fix copying more bytes than expected in sctp_add_bind_addrMarcelo Ricardo Leitner
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.

2015-12-05sctp: use the same clock as if sock source timestamps were onMarcelo Ricardo Leitner
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.

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().

2014-11-11net: sctp: fix NULL pointer dereference in af->from_addr_param on malformed ↵Daniel Borkmann
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().

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. Joint work with Vlad Yasevich.

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.

2014-03-05net: sctp: fix skb leakage in COOKIE ECHO path of chunk->auth_chunkDaniel Borkmann
While working on ec0223ec48a9 ("net: sctp: fix sctp_sf_do_5_1D_ce to verify if we/peer is AUTH capable"), we noticed that there's a skb memory leakage in the error path. Running the same reproducer as in ec0223ec48a9 and by unconditionally jumping to the error label (to simulate an error condition) in sctp_sf_do_5_1D_ce() receive path lets kmemleak detector bark about the unfreed chunk->auth_chunk skb clone: Unreferenced object 0xffff8800b8f3a000 (size 256): comm "softirq", pid 0, jiffies 4294769856 (age 110.757s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ 89 ab 75 5e d4 01 58 13 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ..u^..X......... backtrace: [<ffffffff816660be>] kmemleak_alloc+0x4e/0xb0 [<ffffffff8119f328>] kmem_cache_alloc+0xc8/0x210 [<ffffffff81566929>] skb_clone+0x49/0xb0 [<ffffffffa0467459>] sctp_endpoint_bh_rcv+0x1d9/0x230 [sctp] [<ffffffffa046fdbc>] sctp_inq_push+0x4c/0x70 [sctp] [<ffffffffa047e8de>] sctp_rcv+0x82e/0x9a0 [sctp] [<ffffffff815abd38>] ip_local_deliver_finish+0xa8/0x210 [<ffffffff815a64af>] nf_reinject+0xbf/0x180 [<ffffffffa04b4762>] nfqnl_recv_verdict+0x1d2/0x2b0 [nfnetlink_queue] [<ffffffffa04aa40b>] nfnetlink_rcv_msg+0x14b/0x250 [nfnetlink] [<ffffffff815a3269>] netlink_rcv_skb+0xa9/0xc0 [<ffffffffa04aa7cf>] nfnetlink_rcv+0x23f/0x408 [nfnetlink] [<ffffffff815a2bd8>] netlink_unicast+0x168/0x250 [<ffffffff815a2fa1>] netlink_sendmsg+0x2e1/0x3f0 [<ffffffff8155cc6b>] sock_sendmsg+0x8b/0xc0 [<ffffffff8155d449>] ___sys_sendmsg+0x369/0x380 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.

2013-07-01net: sctp: rework debugging framework to use pr_debug and friendsDaniel Borkmann
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.

2012-06-30sctp: be more restrictive in transport selection on bundled sacksNeil Horman
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.
