xfrm: rate limit SA mapping change message to user space
[ Upstream commit 4e484b3e969b52effd95c17f7a86f39208b2ccf4 ] Kernel generates mapping change message, XFRM_MSG_MAPPING, when a source port chage is detected on a input state with UDP encapsulation set. Kernel generates a message for each IPsec packet with new source port. For a high speed flow per packet mapping change message can be excessive, and can overload the user space listener. Introduce rate limiting for XFRM_MSG_MAPPING message to the user space. The rate limiting is configurable via netlink, when adding a new SA or updating it. Use the new attribute XFRMA_MTIMER_THRESH in seconds. v1->v2 change: update xfrm_sa_len() v2->v3 changes: use u32 insted unsigned long to reduce size of struct xfrm_state fix xfrm_ompat size Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com> accept XFRM_MSG_MAPPING only when XFRMA_ENCAP is present Co-developed-by: Thomas Egerer <thomas.egerer@secunet.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Egerer <thomas.egerer@secunet.com> Signed-off-by: Antony Antony <antony.antony@secunet.com> Signed-off-by: Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@secunet.com> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
