commit 5027d54a9c30bc7ec808360378e2b4753f053f25 upstream.
accept_ra_min_rtr_lft only considered the lifetime of the default route
and discarded entire RAs accordingly.
This change renames accept_ra_min_rtr_lft to accept_ra_min_lft, and
applies the value to individual RA sections; in particular, router
lifetime, PIO preferred lifetime, and RIO lifetime. If any of those
lifetimes are lower than the configured value, the specific RA section
is ignored.
In order for the sysctl to be useful to Android, it should really apply
to all lifetimes in the RA, since that is what determines the minimum
frequency at which RAs must be processed by the kernel. Android uses
hardware offloads to drop RAs for a fraction of the minimum of all
lifetimes present in the RA (some networks have very frequent RAs (5s)
with high lifetimes (2h)). Despite this, we have encountered networks
that set the router lifetime to 30s which results in very frequent CPU
wakeups. Instead of disabling IPv6 (and dropping IPv6 ethertype in the
WiFi firmware) entirely on such networks, it seems better to ignore the
misconfigured routers while still processing RAs from other IPv6 routers
on the same network (i.e. to support IoT applications).
The previous implementation dropped the entire RA based on router
lifetime. This turned out to be hard to expand to the other lifetimes
present in the RA in a consistent manner; dropping the entire RA based
on RIO/PIO lifetimes would essentially require parsing the whole thing
twice.

commit 1671bcfd76fdc0b9e65153cf759153083755fe4c upstream.
This change adds a new sysctl accept_ra_min_rtr_lft to specify the
minimum acceptable router lifetime in an RA. If the received RA router
lifetime is less than the configured value (and not 0), the RA is
ignored.
This is useful for mobile devices, whose battery life can be impacted
by networks that configure RAs with a short lifetime. On such networks,
the device should never gain IPv6 provisioning and should attempt to
drop RAs via hardware offload, if available.

RFC8754 says:
ICMP error packets generated within the SR domain are sent to source
nodes within the SR domain. The invoking packet in the ICMP error
message may contain an SRH. Since the destination address of a packet
with an SRH changes as each segment is processed, it may not be the
destination used by the socket or application that generated the
invoking packet.
For the source of an invoking packet to process the ICMP error
message, the ultimate destination address of the IPv6 header may be
required. The following logic is used to determine the destination
address for use by protocol-error handlers.
* Walk all extension headers of the invoking IPv6 packet to the
routing extension header preceding the upper-layer header.
- If routing header is type 4 Segment Routing Header (SRH)
o The SID at Segment List[0] may be used as the destination
address of the invoking packet.
Mangle the skb so the network header points to the invoking packet
inside the ICMP packet. The seg6 helpers can then be used on the skb
to find any segment routing headers. If found, mark this fact in the
IPv6 control block of the skb, and store the offset into the packet of
the SRH. Then restore the skb back to its old state.

In most situations the neighbor discovery cache should be cleared on a
NOCARRIER event which is currently done unconditionally. But for wireless
roams the neighbor discovery cache can and should remain intact since
the underlying network has not changed.
This patch introduces a sysctl option ndisc_evict_nocarrier which can
be disabled by a wireless supplicant during a roam. This allows packets
to be sent after a roam immediately without having to wait for
neighbor discovery.
A user reported roughly a 1 second delay after a roam before packets
could be sent out (note, on IPv4). This delay was due to the ARP
cache being cleared. During testing of this same scenario using IPv6
no delay was noticed, but regardless there is no reason to clear
the ndisc cache for wireless roams.

Implement support for processing the IOAM Pre-allocated Trace with IPv6,
see [1] and [2]. Introduce a new IPv6 Hop-by-Hop TLV option, see IANA [3].
A new per-interface sysctl is introduced. The value is a boolean to accept (=1)
or ignore (=0, by default) IPv6 IOAM options on ingress for an interface:
- net.ipv6.conf.XXX.ioam6_enabled
Two other sysctls are introduced to define IOAM IDs, represented by an integer.
They are respectively per-namespace and per-interface:
- net.ipv6.ioam6_id
- net.ipv6.conf.XXX.ioam6_id
The value of the first one represents the IOAM ID of the node itself (u32; max
and default value = U32_MAX>>8, due to hop limit concatenation) while the other
represents the IOAM ID of an interface (u16; max and default value = U16_MAX).
Each "ioam6_id" sysctl has a "_wide" equivalent:
- net.ipv6.ioam6_id_wide
- net.ipv6.conf.XXX.ioam6_id_wide
The value of the first one represents the wide IOAM ID of the node itself (u64;
max and default value = U64_MAX>>8, due to hop limit concatenation) while the
other represents the wide IOAM ID of an interface (u32; max and default value
= U32_MAX).
The use of short and wide equivalents is not exclusive, a deployment could
choose to leverage both. For example, net.ipv6.conf.XXX.ioam6_id (short format)
could be an identifier for a physical interface, whereas
net.ipv6.conf.XXX.ioam6_id_wide (wide format) could be an identifier for a
logical sub-interface. Documentation about new sysctls is provided at the end
of this patchset.
Two relativistic hash tables are used: one for IOAM namespaces, the other for
IOAM schemas. A namespace can only have a single active schema and a schema
can only be attached to a single namespace (1:1 relationship).

The icmp{,v6}_send functions make all sorts of use of skb->cb, casting
it with IPCB or IP6CB, assuming the skb to have come directly from the
inet layer. But when the packet comes from the ndo layer, especially
when forwarded, there's no telling what might be in skb->cb at that
point. As a result, the icmp sending code risks reading bogus memory
contents, which can result in nasty stack overflows such as this one
reported by a user:
panic+0x108/0x2ea
__stack_chk_fail+0x14/0x20
__icmp_send+0x5bd/0x5c0
icmp_ndo_send+0x148/0x160
In icmp_send, skb->cb is cast with IPCB and an ip_options struct is read
from it. The optlen parameter there is of particular note, as it can
induce writes beyond bounds. There are quite a few ways that can happen
in __ip_options_echo. For example:
// sptr/skb are attacker-controlled skb bytes
sptr = skb_network_header(skb);
// dptr/dopt points to stack memory allocated by __icmp_send
dptr = dopt->__data;
// sopt is the corrupt skb->cb in question
if (sopt->rr) {
optlen = sptr[sopt->rr+1]; // corrupt skb->cb + skb->data
soffset = sptr[sopt->rr+2]; // corrupt skb->cb + skb->data
// this now writes potentially attacker-controlled data, over
// flowing the stack:
memcpy(dptr, sptr+sopt->rr, optlen);
}
In the icmpv6_send case, the story is similar, but not as dire, as only
IP6CB(skb)->iif and IP6CB(skb)->dsthao are used. The dsthao case is
worse than the iif case, but it is passed to ipv6_find_tlv, which does
a bit of bounds checking on the value.
This is easy to simulate by doing a `memset(skb->cb, 0x41,
sizeof(skb->cb));` before calling icmp{,v6}_ndo_send, and it's only by
good fortune and the rarity of icmp sending from that context that we've
avoided reports like this until now. For example, in KASAN:
BUG: KASAN: stack-out-of-bounds in __ip_options_echo+0xa0e/0x12b0
Write of size 38 at addr ffff888006f1f80e by task ping/89

memcpy+0x39/0x60
__ip_options_echo+0xa0e/0x12b0
__icmp_send+0x744/0x1700
Actually, out of the 4 drivers that do this, only gtp zeroed the cb for
the v4 case, while the rest did not. So this commit actually removes the
gtp-specific zeroing, while putting the code where it belongs in the
shared infrastructure of icmp{,v6}_ndo_send.
This commit fixes the issue by passing an empty IPCB or IP6CB along to
the functions that actually do the work. For the icmp_send, this was
already trivial, thanks to __icmp_send providing the plumbing function.
For icmpv6_send, this required a tiny bit of refactoring to make it
behave like the v4 case, after which it was straight forward.

For IPv4, default route is learned via DHCPv4 and user is allowed to change
metric using config etc/network/interfaces. But for IPv6, default route can
be learned via RA, for which, currently a fixed metric value 1024 is used.
Ideally, user should be able to configure metric on default route for IPv6
similar to IPv4. This patch adds sysctl for the same.
Logs:

i.e. User can prefer Default Router learned via Routing Protocol in IPv4.
Similar behavior is not possible for IPv6, without this fix.

This patch refactors ip_mc_check_igmp(), ipv6_mc_check_mld() and
their callers (more precisely, the Linux bridge) to not rely on
the skb_trimmed parameter anymore.
An skb with its tail trimmed to the IP packet length was initially
introduced for the following three reasons:
1) To be able to verify the ICMPv6 checksum.
2) To be able to distinguish the version of an IGMP or MLD query.
They are distinguishable only by their size.
3) To avoid parsing data for an IGMPv3 or MLDv2 report that is
beyond the IP packet but still within the skb.
The first case still uses a cloned and potentially trimmed skb to
verfiy. However, there is no need to propagate it to the caller.
For the second and third case explicit IP packet length checks were
added.
This hopefully makes ip_mc_check_igmp() and ipv6_mc_check_mld() easier
to read and verfiy, as well as easier to use.

The socket option will be enabled by default to ensure current behaviour
is not changed. This is the same for the IPv4 version.
A socket bound to in6addr_any and a specific port will receive all traffic
on that port. Analogue to IP_MULTICAST_ALL, disable this behaviour, if
one or more multicast groups were joined (using said socket) and only
pass on multicast traffic from groups, which were explicitly joined via
this socket.
Without this option disabled a socket (system even) joined to multiple
multicast groups is very hard to get right. Filtering by destination
address has to take place in user space to avoid receiving multicast
traffic from other multicast groups, which might have traffic on the same
port.
The extension of the IP_MULTICAST_ALL socketoption to just apply to ipv6,
too, is not done to avoid changing the behaviour of current applications.

sysctl.ip6.auto_flowlabels is default 1. In our hosts, we set it to 2.
If sockopt doesn't set autoflowlabel, outcome packets from the hosts are
supposed to not include flowlabel. This is true for normal packet, but
not for reset packet.
The reason is ipv6_pinfo.autoflowlabel is set in sock creation. Later if
we change sysctl.ip6.auto_flowlabels, the ipv6_pinfo.autoflowlabel isn't
changed, so the sock will keep the old behavior in terms of auto
flowlabel. Reset packet is suffering from this problem, because reset
packet is sent from a special control socket, which is created at boot
time. Since sysctl.ipv6.auto_flowlabels is 1 by default, the control
socket will always have its ipv6_pinfo.autoflowlabel set, even after
user set sysctl.ipv6.auto_flowlabels to 1, so reset packset will always
have flowlabel. Normal sock created before sysctl setting suffers from
the same issue. We can't even turn off autoflowlabel unless we kill all
socks in the hosts.
To fix this, if IPV6_AUTOFLOWLABEL sockopt is used, we use the
autoflowlabel setting from user, otherwise we always call
ip6_default_np_autolabel() which has the new settings of sysctl.
Note, this changes behavior a little bit. Before commit 42240901f7
(ipv6: Implement different admin modes for automatic flow labels), the
autoflowlabel behavior of a sock isn't sticky, eg, if sysctl changes,
existing connection will change autoflowlabel behavior. After that
commit, autoflowlabel behavior is sticky in the whole life of the sock.
With this patch, the behavior isn't sticky again.

Add a per-device sysctl to specify the default traffic class to use for
kernel originated IPv6 Neighbour Discovery packets.
Currently this includes:
- Router Solicitation (ICMPv6 type 133)
ndisc_send_rs() -> ndisc_send_skb() -> ip6_nd_hdr()
- Neighbour Solicitation (ICMPv6 type 135)
ndisc_send_ns() -> ndisc_send_skb() -> ip6_nd_hdr()
- Neighbour Advertisement (ICMPv6 type 136)
ndisc_send_na() -> ndisc_send_skb() -> ip6_nd_hdr()
- Redirect (ICMPv6 type 137)
ndisc_send_redirect() -> ndisc_send_skb() -> ip6_nd_hdr()
and if the kernel ever gets around to generating RA's,
it would presumably also include:
- Router Advertisement (ICMPv6 type 134)
(radvd daemon could pick up on the kernel setting and use it)
Interface drivers may examine the Traffic Class value and translate
the DiffServ Code Point into a link-layer appropriate traffic
prioritization scheme. An example of mapping IETF DSCP values to
IEEE 802.11 User Priority values can be found here:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tsvwg-ieee-802-11
The expected primary use case is to properly prioritize ND over wifi.
