Subject: ESP interfamily tunnel bug?
Hi,
we have discovered a routing related problem in ESP tunnel and beet mode.
We don't know whether it is a bug in the XFRM, or just in the way the
virtual addresses and the corresponding routes are set-up. We set up a
dummy0 device for the virtual addresses:
root@...ong:~# ip addr show dummy0
5: dummy0: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,10000> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue
link/ether 92:09:fe:11:81:1b brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet6 2001:72:e6d3:1cf3:e11d:5bb0:b99:e85e/28 scope global
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet6 2001:74:32e0:df36:e862:3963:523e:dd7d/28 scope global
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet6 2001:73:d3a8:8723:d572:7549:7f2c:e590/28 scope global
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet6 2001:75:a2e6:aad6:e901:dd1c:ba95:e300/28 scope global
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet6 fe80::9009:feff:fe11:811b/64 scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
And then we have routes for the virtual addresses:
root@...ong:~# ip -6 route
2001:72:e6d3:1cf3:e11d:5bb0:b99:e85e dev dummy0 metric 1024 expires

...and set-up policies and associations. The virtual IPv6 addresses
are inner and IPv4 addresses are outer addresses:
root@...ong:~/projects/hipl--userspace--2.6# ip xfrm policy show

And then we try to ping6 the virtual address:
root@...ong:~/projects/hipl--userspace--2.6# ping6 -I
2001:0074:32e0:df36:e862:3963:523e:dd7d

ping: sendmsg: Network is unreachable
ping: sendmsg: Network is unreachable
Tcpdump shows no traffic at the host. We can repeat the problem both with
tunnel and beet modes in 2.6.21-rc6 (and also in 2.6.17.14).
I have tried also "ip rule stuff" but it seems that it does not rule with
IPv6 :) It does help either to reduce the number of virtual addresses to a
single one. It is weird that the ESP actually works some combinations of
virtual addresses (4 of 16) in both directions, or works unidirectionally
on some and does not work at all on the rest. I verified the
unidirectional property using a simple UDP based application: sender xmits
UDP packet, receiver gets it ok, but cannot respond. So, the problem is in
the transmission of packets.
I traced the ENETUNREACH in the kernel side to here:
net/ipv4/route.c:ip_route_output_slow:
if (fib_lookup(&fl, &res)) {
....
if (dev_out)
dev_put(dev_out);
err = -ENETUNREACH;
FIB lookup up is returning an error net/ipv4/fib_rules:
int fib_lookup(const struct flowi *flp, struct fib_result *res)
{
...
hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(r, node, &fib_rules, hlist) {
...
case RTN_UNREACHABLE:
rcu_read_unlock();
return -ENETUNREACH;
I wonder if the problem is related to one that Yoshifugi has filed:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8349
The bug does not usually occur with machines that in the same
physical network, so I guess it is a routing problem. Any ideas or hints?
