From: Shmulik Ladkani <shmulik.ladk...@gmail.com> Commit 153380ec4b9b ("fib_rules: Added NLM_F_EXCL support to fib_nl_newrule") added a check to 'fib_nl_newrule' that tests whether the suggested rule already exists (i.e. has same properties). The check uses fib_rules_ops->compare() method to compare the protocol specific properties.
However, the 'compare()' implementations have wildcard semantics: They compared the src_len of the given 'frh' against existing rules ONLY if frh->src_len is specified (i.e. non-zero). Same applies to dst_len and tos fields. The wildcard behavior exists, since formerly (prior 153380ec4b9b), the only use of 'compare' was in fib_nl_delrule, and it was expected that one can delete a rule using a partial match. However, the wildcard behavior is incorrect for fib_nl_newrule: It means that if one specifies 0.0.0.0/0 as the FRA_SRC (or equivalently doesn't specify a FRA_SRC), frh->src_len will NOT be compared against other rules, resulting in compare returning true. This leads to inconsistencies, depending on order of operations, e.g.: A working sequence: # ip ru add from 0.0.0.0/0 iif eth2 pref 22 table 22 # ip ru add from 10.0.0.0/8 iif eth2 pref 22 table 22 # ip ru | grep 22 # both added successfully 22: from all iif eth2 lookup 22 22: from 10.0.0.0/8 iif eth2 lookup 22 A non-working sequence: # ip ru add from 10.0.0.0/8 iif eth2 pref 33 table 33 # ip ru add from 0.0.0.0/0 iif eth2 pref 33 table 33 RTNETLINK answers: File exists # wildcard compare returned true Fix, by adding an 'exact' mode for comparison: In exact mode, frh->src_len is compared to existing rules' src_len regardless whether frh->src_len is non-zero. (same applies for 'dst_len' and 'tos'). Fixes: 153380ec4b9b ("fib_rules: Added NLM_F_EXCL support to fib_nl_newrule") Reported-by: Eyal Birger <eyal.bir...@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Shmulik Ladkani <shmulik.ladk...@gmail.com> --- An alternative I considered was changing all 'compare' implementations to have "exact" semantics. This has the adavantage of less user confusion, as both NEWRULE and DELRULE have an "exact match" behavior. Alas, I assume there are existing users which might rely on the wildcard behavior of DELRULE. Therefore, this patch results in NEWRULE+NLM_F_EXCL having "exact" semantics, but keeps the "wildcard" semantics for DELRULE. --- include/net/fib_rules.h | 2 +- net/core/fib_rules.c | 4 ++-- net/decnet/dn_rules.c | 6 +++--- net/ipv4/fib_rules.c | 8 ++++---- net/ipv4/ipmr.c | 2 +- net/ipv6/fib6_rules.c | 8 ++++---- net/ipv6/ip6mr.c | 2 +- 7 files changed, 16 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) diff --git a/include/net/fib_rules.h b/include/net/fib_rules.h index 3d7f1cefc6f5..23c406282af8 100644 --- a/include/net/fib_rules.h +++ b/include/net/fib_rules.h @@ -74,7 +74,7 @@ struct fib_rules_ops { int (*delete)(struct fib_rule *); int (*compare)(struct fib_rule *, struct fib_rule_hdr *, - struct nlattr **); + struct nlattr **, bool); int (*fill)(struct fib_rule *, struct sk_buff *, struct fib_rule_hdr *); size_t (*nlmsg_payload)(struct fib_rule *); diff --git a/net/core/fib_rules.c b/net/core/fib_rules.c index 9a6d97c1d810..7e5cdee5263a 100644 --- a/net/core/fib_rules.c +++ b/net/core/fib_rules.c @@ -422,7 +422,7 @@ static int rule_exists(struct fib_rules_ops *ops, struct fib_rule_hdr *frh, !uid_eq(r->uid_range.end, rule->uid_range.end)) continue; - if (!ops->compare(r, frh, tb)) + if (!ops->compare(r, frh, tb, true)) continue; return 1; } @@ -702,7 +702,7 @@ int fib_nl_delrule(struct sk_buff *skb, struct nlmsghdr *nlh, !uid_eq(rule->uid_range.end, range.end))) continue; - if (!ops->compare(rule, frh, tb)) + if (!ops->compare(rule, frh, tb, false)) continue; if (rule->flags & FIB_RULE_PERMANENT) { diff --git a/net/decnet/dn_rules.c b/net/decnet/dn_rules.c index 295bbd6a56f2..f8117248564c 100644 --- a/net/decnet/dn_rules.c +++ b/net/decnet/dn_rules.c @@ -158,14 +158,14 @@ static int dn_fib_rule_configure(struct fib_rule *rule, struct sk_buff *skb, } static int dn_fib_rule_compare(struct fib_rule *rule, struct fib_rule_hdr *frh, - struct nlattr **tb) + struct nlattr **tb, bool exact) { struct dn_fib_rule *r = (struct dn_fib_rule *)rule; - if (frh->src_len && (r->src_len != frh->src_len)) + if ((exact || frh->src_len) && r->src_len != frh->src_len) return 0; - if (frh->dst_len && (r->dst_len != frh->dst_len)) + if ((exact || frh->dst_len) && r->dst_len != frh->dst_len) return 0; if (frh->src_len && (r->src != nla_get_le16(tb[FRA_SRC]))) diff --git a/net/ipv4/fib_rules.c b/net/ipv4/fib_rules.c index 35d646a62ad4..13369b7e247f 100644 --- a/net/ipv4/fib_rules.c +++ b/net/ipv4/fib_rules.c @@ -277,17 +277,17 @@ static int fib4_rule_delete(struct fib_rule *rule) } static int fib4_rule_compare(struct fib_rule *rule, struct fib_rule_hdr *frh, - struct nlattr **tb) + struct nlattr **tb, bool exact) { struct fib4_rule *rule4 = (struct fib4_rule *) rule; - if (frh->src_len && (rule4->src_len != frh->src_len)) + if ((exact || frh->src_len) && rule4->src_len != frh->src_len) return 0; - if (frh->dst_len && (rule4->dst_len != frh->dst_len)) + if ((exact || frh->dst_len) && rule4->dst_len != frh->dst_len) return 0; - if (frh->tos && (rule4->tos != frh->tos)) + if ((exact || frh->tos) && rule4->tos != frh->tos) return 0; #ifdef CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_CLASSID diff --git a/net/ipv4/ipmr.c b/net/ipv4/ipmr.c index 292a8e80bdfa..13d6702d5b8f 100644 --- a/net/ipv4/ipmr.c +++ b/net/ipv4/ipmr.c @@ -192,7 +192,7 @@ static int ipmr_rule_configure(struct fib_rule *rule, struct sk_buff *skb, } static int ipmr_rule_compare(struct fib_rule *rule, struct fib_rule_hdr *frh, - struct nlattr **tb) + struct nlattr **tb, bool exact) { return 1; } diff --git a/net/ipv6/fib6_rules.c b/net/ipv6/fib6_rules.c index b240f24a6e52..7ffbff3777ce 100644 --- a/net/ipv6/fib6_rules.c +++ b/net/ipv6/fib6_rules.c @@ -265,17 +265,17 @@ static int fib6_rule_configure(struct fib_rule *rule, struct sk_buff *skb, } static int fib6_rule_compare(struct fib_rule *rule, struct fib_rule_hdr *frh, - struct nlattr **tb) + struct nlattr **tb, bool exact) { struct fib6_rule *rule6 = (struct fib6_rule *) rule; - if (frh->src_len && (rule6->src.plen != frh->src_len)) + if ((exact || frh->src_len) && rule6->src.plen != frh->src_len) return 0; - if (frh->dst_len && (rule6->dst.plen != frh->dst_len)) + if ((exact || frh->dst_len) && rule6->dst.plen != frh->dst_len) return 0; - if (frh->tos && (rule6->tclass != frh->tos)) + if ((exact || frh->tos) && rule6->tclass != frh->tos) return 0; if (frh->src_len && diff --git a/net/ipv6/ip6mr.c b/net/ipv6/ip6mr.c index f5500f5444e9..95a0f15c4810 100644 --- a/net/ipv6/ip6mr.c +++ b/net/ipv6/ip6mr.c @@ -196,7 +196,7 @@ static int ip6mr_rule_configure(struct fib_rule *rule, struct sk_buff *skb, } static int ip6mr_rule_compare(struct fib_rule *rule, struct fib_rule_hdr *frh, - struct nlattr **tb) + struct nlattr **tb, bool exact) { return 1; } -- 2.14.1
