2025-06-03ovpn: ensure sk is still valid during cleanupAntonio Quartulli
Removing a peer while userspace attempts to close its transport socket triggers a race condition resulting in the following crash: Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000077: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x00000000000003b8-0x00000000000003bf] CPU: 12 UID: 0 PID: 162 Comm: kworker/12:1 Tainted: G O 6.15.0-rc2-00635-g521139ac3840 #272 PREEMPT(full) Tainted: [O]=OOT_MODULE Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.16.3-20240910_120124-localhost 04/01/2014 Workqueue: events ovpn_peer_keepalive_work [ovpn] RIP: 0010:ovpn_socket_release+0x23c/0x500 [ovpn] Code: ea 03 80 3c 02 00 0f 85 71 02 00 00 48 b8 00 00 00 00 00 fc ff df 4d 8b 64 24 18 49 8d bc 24 be 03 00 00 48 89 fa 48 c1 ea 03 <0f> b6 14 02 48 89 f8 83 e0 07 83 c0 01 38 d0 7c 08 84 d2 0f 85 30 RSP: 0018:ffffc90000c9fb18 EFLAGS: 00010217 RAX: dffffc0000000000 RBX: ffff8881148d7940 RCX: ffffffff817787bb RDX: 0000000000000077 RSI: 0000000000000008 RDI: 00000000000003be RBP: ffffc90000c9fb30 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: fffffbfff0d3e840 R10: ffffffff869f4207 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: 0000000000000000 R13: ffff888115eb9300 R14: ffffc90000c9fbc8 R15: 000000000000000c FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff8882b0151000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 00007f37266b6114 CR3: 00000000054a8000 CR4: 0000000000750ef0 PKRU: 55555554 Call Trace: <TASK> unlock_ovpn+0x8b/0xe0 [ovpn] ovpn_peer_keepalive_work+0xe3/0x540 [ovpn] ? ovpn_peers_free+0x780/0x780 [ovpn] ? lock_acquire+0x56/0x70 ? process_one_work+0x888/0x1740 process_one_work+0x933/0x1740 ? pwq_dec_nr_in_flight+0x10b0/0x10b0 ? move_linked_works+0x12d/0x2c0 ? assign_work+0x163/0x270 worker_thread+0x4d6/0xd90 ? preempt_count_sub+0x4c/0x70 ? process_one_work+0x1740/0x1740 kthread+0x36c/0x710 ? trace_preempt_on+0x8c/0x1e0 ? kthread_is_per_cpu+0xc0/0xc0 ? preempt_count_sub+0x4c/0x70 ? _raw_spin_unlock_irq+0x36/0x60 ? calculate_sigpending+0x7b/0xa0 ? kthread_is_per_cpu+0xc0/0xc0 ret_from_fork+0x3a/0x80 ? kthread_is_per_cpu+0xc0/0xc0 ret_from_fork_asm+0x11/0x20 </TASK> Modules linked in: ovpn(O) This happens because the peer deletion operation reaches ovpn_socket_release() while ovpn_sock->sock (struct socket *) and its sk member (struct sock *) are still both valid. Here synchronize_rcu() is invoked, after which ovpn_sock->sock->sk becomes NULL, due to the concurrent socket closing triggered from userspace. After having invoked synchronize_rcu(), ovpn_socket_release() will attempt dereferencing ovpn_sock->sock->sk, triggering the crash reported above. The reason for accessing sk is that we need to retrieve its protocol and continue the cleanup routine accordingly. This crash can be easily produced by running openvpn userspace in client mode with `--keepalive 10 20`, while entirely omitting this option on the server side. After 20 seconds ovpn will assume the peer (server) to be dead, will start removing it and will notify userspace. The latter will receive the notification and close the transport socket, thus triggering the crash. To fix the race condition for good, we need to refactor struct ovpn_socket. Since ovpn is always only interested in the sock->sk member (struct sock *) we can directly hold a reference to it, raher than accessing it via its struct socket container. This means changing "struct socket *ovpn_socket->sock" to "struct sock *ovpn_socket->sk". While acquiring a reference to sk, we can increase its refcounter without affecting the socket close()/destroy() notification (which we rely on when userspace closes a socket we are using). By increasing sk's refcounter we know we can dereference it in ovpn_socket_release() without incurring in any race condition anymore. ovpn_socket_release() will ultimately decrease the reference counter.

2025-05-15ovpn: improve 'no route to host' debug messageAntonio Quartulli
When debugging a 'no route to host' error it can be beneficial to know the address of the unreachable destination. Print it along the debugging text. While at it, add a missing parenthesis in a different debugging message inside ovpn_peer_endpoints_update(). Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <antonio@openvpn.net>
2025-05-15ovpn: drop useless reg_state check in keepalive workerAntonio Quartulli
The keepalive worker is cancelled before calling unregister_netdevice_queue(), therefore it will never hit a situation where the reg_state can be different than NETDEV_REGISTERED. For this reason, checking reg_state is useless and the condition can be removed. Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <antonio@openvpn.net>
2025-04-17ovpn: notify userspace when a peer is deletedAntonio Quartulli
Whenever a peer is deleted, send a notification to userspace so that it can react accordingly. This is most important when a peer is deleted due to ping timeout, because it all happens in kernelspace and thus userspace has no direct way to learn about it.

2025-04-17ovpn: implement peer lookup logicAntonio Quartulli
In a multi-peer scenario there are a number of situations when a specific peer needs to be looked up. We may want to lookup a peer by: 1. its ID 2. its VPN destination IP 3. its transport IP/port couple For each of the above, there is a specific routing table referencing all peers for fast look up. Case 2. is a bit special in the sense that an outgoing packet may not be sent to the peer VPN IP directly, but rather to a network behind it. For this reason we first perform a nexthop lookup in the system routing table and then we use the retrieved nexthop as peer search key.

This specific structure is used in the ovpn kernel module to wrap and carry around a standard kernel socket. ovpn takes ownership of passed sockets and therefore an ovpn specific objects is attached to them for status tracking purposes.

2025-04-17ovpn: introduce the ovpn_peer objectAntonio Quartulli
An ovpn_peer object holds the whole status of a remote peer (regardless whether it is a server or a client). This includes status for crypto, tx/rx buffers, napi, etc. Only support for one peer is introduced (P2P mode). Multi peer support is introduced with a later patch. Along with the ovpn_peer, also the ovpn_bind object is introcued as the two are strictly related. An ovpn_bind object wraps a sockaddr representing the local coordinates being used to talk to a specific peer.
