50b5d6ad63 sctp: Fix a race between ICMP protocol unreachable and connect()
ICMP protocol unreachable handling completely disregarded
the fact that the user may have locked the socket.  It proceeded
to destroy the association, even though the user may have
held the lock and had a ref on the association.  This resulted
in the following:

Attempt to release alive inet socket f6afcc00

This was because the sctp_wait_for_connect() would aqcure the socket
lock and then proceed to release the last reference count on the
association, thus cause the fully destruction path to finish freeing
the socket.

The simplest solution is to start a very short timer in case the socket
is owned by user.  When the timer expires, we can do some verification
and be able to do the release properly.

Its an skb_over_panic BUG halt that results from processing an init chunk in
which too many of its variable length parameters are in some way malformed.

The problem is in sctp_process_unk_param:
if (NULL == *errp)
	*errp = sctp_make_op_error_space(asoc, chunk,
					 ntohs(chunk->chunk_hdr->length));

	if (*errp) {
		sctp_init_cause(*errp, SCTP_ERROR_UNKNOWN_PARAM,
				 WORD_ROUND(ntohs(param.p->length)));
		sctp_addto_chunk(*errp,
			WORD_ROUND(ntohs(param.p->length)),
				  param.v);

When we allocate an error chunk, we assume that the worst case scenario requires
that we have chunk_hdr->length data allocated, which would be correct nominally,
given that we call sctp_addto_chunk for the violating parameter.  Unfortunately,
we also, in sctp_init_cause insert a sctp_errhdr_t structure into the error
chunk, so the worst case situation in which all parameters are in violation
requires chunk_hdr->length+(sizeof(sctp_errhdr_t)*param_count) bytes of data.

The result of this error is that a deliberately malformed packet sent to a
listening host can cause a remote DOS, described in CVE-2010-1173:
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=2010-1173

I've tested the below fix and confirmed that it fixes the issue.  We move to a
strategy whereby we allocate a fixed size error chunk and ignore errors we don't
have space to report.  Tested by me successfully

a8170c35e7 sctp: fix to calc the INIT/INIT-ACK chunk length correctly is set
When calculating the INIT/INIT-ACK chunk length, we should not
only account the length of parameters, but also the parameters
zero padding length, such as AUTH HMACS parameter and CHUNKS
parameter. Without the parameters zero padding length we may get
following oops.

561b1733a4 sctp: avoid irq lock inversion while call sk->sk_data_ready()
sk->sk_data_ready() of sctp socket can be called from both BH and non-BH
contexts, but the default sk->sk_data_ready(), sock_def_readable(), can
not be used in this case. Therefore, we have to make a new function
sctp_data_ready() to grab sk->sk_data_ready() with BH disabling.

and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them.

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

5fdd4baef6 sctp: on T3_RTX retransmit all the in-flight chunks
When retransmitting due to T3 timeout, retransmit all the
in-flight chunks for the corresponding  transport/path, including
chunks sent less then 1 rto ago.
This is the correct behaviour according to rfc4960 section 6.3.3
E3 and
"Note: Any DATA chunks that were sent to the address for which the
 T3-rtx timer expired but did not fit in one MTU (rule E3 above)
 should be marked for retransmission and sent as soon as cwnd
 allows (normally, when a SACK arrives). ".

This fixes problems when more then one path is present and the T3
retransmission of the first chunk that timeouts stops the T3 timer
for the initial active path, leaving all the other in-flight
chunks waiting forever or until a new chunk is transmitted on the
same path and timeouts (and this will happen only if the cwnd
allows sending new chunks, but since cwnd was dropped to MTU by
the timeout => it will wait until the first heartbeat).

Example: 10 packets in flight, sent at 0.1 s intervals on the
primary path. The primary path is down and the first packet
timeouts. The first packet is retransmitted on another path, the
T3 timer for the primary path is stopped and cwnd is set to MTU.
All the other 9 in-flight packets will not be retransmitted
(unless more new packets are sent on the primary path which depend
on cwnd allowing it, and even in this case the 9 packets will be
retransmitted only after a new packet timeouts which even in the
best case would be more then RTO).

This commit reverts d0ce92910b and
also removes the now unused transport->last_rto, introduced in
 b6157d8e03.

p.s  The problem is not only when multiple paths are there.  It
can happen in a single homed environment.  If the application
stops sending data, it possible to have a hung association.

d8dd15781d sctp: Fix mis-ordering of user space data when multihoming in use
Recently had a bug reported to me, in which the user was sending
packets with a payload containing a sequence number.  The packets
were getting delivered in order according the chunk TSN values, but
the sequence values in the payload were arriving out of order.  At
first I thought it must be an application error, but we eventually
found it to be a problem on the transmit side in the sctp stack.

The conditions for the error are that multihoming must be in use,
and it helps if each transport has a different pmtu.  The problem
occurs in sctp_outq_flush.  Basically we dequeue packets from the
data queue, and attempt to append them to the orrered packet for a
given transport.  After we append a data chunk we add the trasport
to the end of a list of transports to have their packets sent at
the end of sctp_outq_flush.  The problem occurs when a data chunks
fills up a offered packet on a transport.  The function that does
the appending (sctp_packet_transmit_chunk), will try to call
sctp_packet_transmit on the full packet, and then append the chunk
to a new packet.  This call to sctp_packet_transmit, sends that
packet ahead of the others that may be queued in the transport_list
in sctp_outq_flush.  The result is that frames that were sent in one
order from the user space sending application get re-ordered prior
to tsn assignment in sctp_packet_transmit, resulting in mis-sequencing
of data payloads, even though tsn ordering is correct.

The fix is to change where we assign a tsn.  By doing this earlier,
we are then free to place chunks in packets, whatever way we
see fit and the protocol will make sure to do all the appropriate
re-ordering on receive as is needed.

46d5a80855 sctp: Update max.burst implementation
Current implementation of max.burst ends up limiting new
data during cwnd decay period.  The decay is happening becuase
the connection is idle and we are allowed to fill the congestion
window.  The point of max.burst is to limit micro-bursts in response
to large acks.  This still happens, as max.burst is still applied
to each transmit opportunity.  It will also apply if a very large
send is made (greater then allowed by burst).

245cba7e55 sctp: Remove useless last_time_used variable
The transport last_time_used variable is rather useless.
It was only used when determining if CWND needs to be updated
due to idle transport.  However, idle transport detection was
based on a Heartbeat timer and last_time_used was not incremented
when sending Heartbeats.  As a result the check for cwnd reduction
was always true.  We can get rid of the variable and just base
our cwnd manipulation on the HB timer (like the code comment sais).
We also have to call into the cwnd manipulation function regardless
of whether HBs are enabled or not.  That way we will detect idle
transports if the user has disabled Heartbeats.

  MAY set the I-bit in the DATA chunk header.

  Reasons for setting the I-bit include

  o  The sender is in the SHUTDOWN-PENDING state.

  o  The application requests to set the I-bit of the last DATA chunk

This patch implement the receiver side for SACK-IMMEDIATELY
extension:

  Section 4.2.  Receiver Side Considerations

  On reception of an SCTP packet containing a DATA chunk with the I-bit
  set, the receiver SHOULD NOT delay the sending of the corresponding
  SACK chunk and SHOULD send it back immediately.

6d4561110a sysctl: Drop & in front of every proc_handler.
For consistency drop & in front of every proc_handler.  Explicity
taking the address is unnecessary and it prevents optimizations
like stubbing the proc_handlers to NULL.

a78102e74e sctp: Set socket source address when additing first transport
Recent commits
	sctp: Get rid of an extra routing lookup when adding a transport
and
	sctp: Set source addresses on the association before adding transports

changed when routes are added to the sctp transports.  As such,
we didn't set the socket source address correctly when adding the first
transport.  The first transport is always the primary/active one, so
when adding it, set the socket source address.  This was causing
regression failures in SCTP tests.

f9c67811eb sctp: Fix regression introduced by new sctp_connectx api
A new (unrealeased to the user) sctp_connectx api

c6ba68a266
    sctp: support non-blocking version of the new sctp_connectx() API

introduced a regression cought by the user regression test
suite.  In particular, the API requires the user library to
re-allocate the buffer and could potentially trigger a SIGFAULT.

This change corrects that regression by passing the original
address buffer to the kernel unmodified, but still allows for
a returned association id.

409b95aff3 sctp: Set source addresses on the association before adding transports
Recent commit 8da645e101
	sctp: Get rid of an extra routing lookup when adding a transport
introduced a regression in the connection setup.  The behavior was

different between IPv4 and IPv6.  IPv4 case ended up working because the
route lookup routing returned a NULL route, which triggered another
route lookup later in the output patch that succeeded.  In the IPv6 case,
a valid route was returned for first call, but we could not find a valid
source address at the time since the source addresses were not set on the
association yet.  Thus resulted in a hung connection.

The solution is to set the source addresses on the association prior to
adding peers.

f8572d8f2a sysctl net: Remove unused binary sysctl code
Now that sys_sysctl is a compatiblity wrapper around /proc/sys
all sysctl strategy routines, and all ctl_name and strategy
entries in the sysctl tables are unused, and can be
revmoed.

In addition neigh_sysctl_register has been modified to no longer
take a strategy argument and it's callers have been modified not
to pass one.

13f18aa05f net: drop capability from protocol definitions
struct can_proto had a capability field which wasn't ever used.  It is
dropped entirely.

struct inet_protosw had a capability field which can be more clearly
expressed in the code by just checking if sock->type = SOCK_RAW.
