net: Retire DCCP socket.

2025-04-12T01:58:10+00:00

DCCP was orphaned in 2021 by commit 054c4610bd05 ("MAINTAINERS: dccp: move Gerrit Renker to CREDITS"), which noted that the last maintainer had been inactive for five years. In recent years, it has become a playground for syzbot, and most changes to DCCP have been odd bug fixes triggered by syzbot. Apart from that, the only changes have been driven by treewide or networking API updates or adjustments related to TCP. Thus, in 2023, we announced we would remove DCCP in 2025 via commit b144fcaf46d4 ("dccp: Print deprecation notice."). Since then, only one individual has contacted the netdev mailing list. [0] There is ongoing research for Multipath DCCP. The repository is hosted on GitHub [1], and development is not taking place through the upstream community. While the repository is published under the GPLv2 license, the scheduling part remains proprietary, with a LICENSE file [2] stating: "This is not Open Source software." The researcher mentioned a plan to address the licensing issue, upstream the patches, and step up as a maintainer, but there has been no further communication since then. Maintaining DCCP for a decade without any real users has become a burden. Therefore, it's time to remove it. Removing DCCP will also provide significant benefits to TCP. It allows us to freely reorganize the layout of struct inet_connection_sock, which is currently shared with DCCP, and optimize it to reduce the number of cachelines accessed in the TCP fast path. Note that we keep DCCP netfilter modules as requested.

net: tcp: un-pin the tw_timer

2024-06-10T10:54:18+00:00

After previous patch, even if timer fires immediately on another CPU, context that schedules the timer now holds the ehash spinlock, so timer cannot reap tw socket until ehash lock is released. BH disable is moved into hashdance_schedule. Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal Reviewed-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: tcp/dccp: prepare for tw_timer un-pinning

2024-06-10T10:54:18+00:00

The TCP timewait timer is proving to be problematic for setups where scheduler CPU isolation is achieved at runtime via cpusets (as opposed to statically via isolcpus=domains). What happens there is a CPU goes through tcp_time_wait(), arming the time_wait timer, then gets isolated. TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN later, the timer fires, causing interference for the now-isolated CPU. This is conceptually similar to the issue described in commit e02b93124855 ("workqueue: Unbind kworkers before sending them to exit()") Move inet_twsk_schedule() to within inet_twsk_hashdance(), with the ehash lock held. Expand the lock's critical section from inet_twsk_kill() to inet_twsk_deschedule_put(), serializing the scheduling vs descheduling of the timer. IOW, this prevents the following race: tcp_time_wait() inet_twsk_hashdance() inet_twsk_deschedule_put() del_timer_sync() inet_twsk_schedule() Thanks to Paolo Abeni for suggesting to leverage the ehash lock. This also restores a comment from commit ec94c2696f0b ("tcp/dccp: avoid one atomic operation for timewait hashdance") as inet_twsk_hashdance() had a "Step 1" and "Step 3" comment, but the "Step 2" had gone missing. inet_twsk_deschedule_put() now acquires the ehash spinlock to synchronize with inet_twsk_hashdance_schedule(). To ease possible regression search, actual un-pin is done in next patch.

tcp: allocate tcp_death_row outside of struct netns_ipv4

2022-01-27T03:00:31+00:00

I forgot tcp had per netns tracking of timewait sockets, and their sysctl to change the limit. After 0dad4087a86a ("tcp/dccp: get rid of inet_twsk_purge()"), whole struct net can be freed before last tw socket is freed. We need to allocate a separate struct inet_timewait_death_row object per netns. tw_count becomes a refcount and gains associated debugging infrastructure.

dccp: don't duplicate ccid when cloning dccp sock

2021-09-08T10:28:35+00:00

Commit 2677d2067731 ("dccp: don't free ccid2_hc_tx_sock ...") fixed a UAF but reintroduced CVE-2017-6074. When the sock is cloned, two dccps_hc_tx_ccid will reference to the same ccid. So one can free the ccid object twice from two socks after cloning. This issue was found by "Hadar Manor" as well and assigned with CVE-2020-16119, which was fixed in Ubuntu's kernel. So here I port the patch from Ubuntu to fix it. The patch prevents cloned socks from referencing the same ccid. Fixes: 2677d2067731410 ("dccp: don't free ccid2_hc_tx_sock ...")
