2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman8-0/+8
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter updates for net-next The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next tree. Basically, updates to the conntrack core, enhancements for nf_tables, conversion of netfilter hooks from linked list to array to improve memory locality and asorted improvements for the Netfilter codebase. More specifically, they are: 1) Add expection to hashes after timer initialization to prevent access from another CPU that walks on the hashes and calls del_timer(), from Florian Westphal. 2) Don't update nf_tables chain counters from hot path, this is only used by the x_tables compatibility layer. 3) Get rid of nested rcu_read_lock() calls from netfilter hook path. Hooks are always guaranteed to run from rcu read side, so remove nested rcu_read_lock() where possible. Patch from Taehee Yoo. 4) nf_tables new ruleset generation notifications include PID and name of the process that has updated the ruleset, from Phil Sutter. 5) Use skb_header_pointer() from nft_fib, so we can reuse this code from the nf_family netdev family. Patch from Pablo M. Bermudo. 6) Add support for nft_fib in nf_tables netdev family, also from Pablo. 7) Use deferrable workqueue for conntrack garbage collection, to reduce power consumption, from Patch from Subash Abhinov Kasiviswanathan. 8) Add nf_ct_expect_iterate_net() helper and use it. From Florian Westphal. 9) Call nf_ct_unconfirmed_destroy only from cttimeout, from Florian. 10) Drop references on conntrack removal path when skbuffs has escaped via nfqueue, from Florian. 11) Don't queue packets to nfqueue with dying conntrack, from Florian. 12) Constify nf_hook_ops structure, from Florian. 13) Remove neededlessly branch in nf_tables trace code, from Phil Sutter. 14) Add nla_strdup(), from Phil Sutter. 15) Rise nf_tables objects name size up to 255 chars, people want to use DNS names, so increase this according to what RFC 1035 specifies. Patch series from Phil Sutter. 16) Kill nf_conntrack_default_on, it's broken. Default on conntrack hook registration on demand, suggested by Eric Dumazet, patch from Florian. 17) Remove unused variables in compat_copy_entry_from_user both in ip_tables and arp_tables code. Patch from Taehee Yoo. 18) Constify struct nf_conntrack_l4proto, from Julia Lawall. 19) Constify nf_loginfo structure, also from Julia. 20) Use a single rb root in connlimit, from Taehee Yoo. 21) Remove unused netfilter_queue_init() prototype, from Taehee Yoo. 22) Use audit_log() instead of open-coding it, from Geliang Tang. 23) Allow to mangle tcp options via nft_exthdr, from Florian. 24) Allow to fetch TCP MSS from nft_rt, from Florian. This includes a fix for a miscalculation of the minimal length. 25) Simplify branch logic in h323 helper, from Nick Desaulniers. 26) Calculate netlink attribute size for conntrack tuple at compile time, from Florian. 27) Remove protocol name field from nf_conntrack_{l3,l4}proto structure. From Florian. 28) Remove holes in nf_conntrack_l4proto structure, so it becomes smaller. From Florian. 29) Get rid of print_tuple() indirection for /proc conntrack listing. Place all the code in net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_standalone.c. Patch from Florian. 30) Do not built in print_conntrack() if CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_PROCFS is off. From Florian. 31) Constify most nf_conntrack_{l3,l4}proto helper functions, from Florian. 32) Fix broken indentation in ebtables extensions, from Colin Ian King. 33) Fix several harmless sparse warning, from Florian. 34) Convert netfilter hook infrastructure to use array for better memory locality, joint work done by Florian and Aaron Conole. Moreover, add some instrumentation to debug this. 35) Batch nf_unregister_net_hooks() calls, to call synchronize_net once per batch, from Florian. 36) Get rid of noisy logging in ICMPv6 conntrack helper, from Florian. 37) Get rid of obsolete NFDEBUG() instrumentation, from Varsha Rao. 38) Remove unused code in the generic protocol tracker, from Davide Caratti. I think I will have material for a second Netfilter batch in my queue if time allow to make it fit in this merge window. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2017-08-29neigh: increase queue_len_bytes to match wmem_defaultEric Dumazet1-1/+1
Florian reported UDP xmit drops that could be root caused to the too small neigh limit. Current limit is 64 KB, meaning that even a single UDP socket would hit it, since its default sk_sndbuf comes from net.core.wmem_default (~212992 bytes on 64bit arches). Once ARP/ND resolution is in progress, we should allow a little more packets to be queued, at least for one producer. Once neigh arp_queue is filled, a rogue socket should hit its sk_sndbuf limit and either block in sendmsg() or return -EAGAIN.

2017-06-17decnet: take dst->__refcnt when struct dn_route is createdWei Wang1-17/+19
struct dn_route is inserted into dn_rt_hash_table but no dst->__refcnt is taken. This patch makes sure the dn_rt_hash_table's reference to the dst is ref counted. As the dst is always ref counted properly, we can safely mark DST_NOGC flag so dst_release() will release dst based on refcnt only. And dst gc is no longer needed and all dst_free() or its related function calls should be replaced with dst_release() or dst_release_immediate(). And dst_dev_put() is called when removing dst from the hash table to release the reference on dst->dev before we lose pointer to it. Also, correct the logic in dn_dst_check_expire() and dn_dst_gc() to check dst->__refcnt to be > 1 to indicate it is referenced by other users.

2017-06-16decnet: always not take dst->__refcnt when inserting dst into hash tableWei Wang1-10/+4
In the existing dn_route.c code, dn_route_output_slow() takes dst->__refcnt before calling dn_insert_route() while dn_route_input_slow() does not take dst->__refcnt before calling dn_insert_route(). This makes the whole routing code very buggy. In dn_dst_check_expire(), dnrt_free() is called when rt expires. This makes the routes inserted by dn_route_output_slow() not able to be freed as the refcnt is not released. In dn_dst_gc(), dnrt_drop() is called to release rt which could potentially cause the dst->__refcnt to be dropped to -1. In dn_run_flush(), dst_free() is called to release all the dst. Again, it makes the dst inserted by dn_route_output_slow() not able to be released and also, it does not wait on the rcu and could potentially cause crash in the path where other users still refer to this dst. This patch makes sure both input and output path do not take dst->__refcnt before calling dn_insert_route() and also makes sure dnrt_free()/dst_free() is called when removing dst from the hash table. The only difference between those 2 calls is that dnrt_free() waits on the rcu while dst_free() does not.

2017-06-16networking: add and use skb_put_u8()Johannes Berg1-6/+6
Joe and Bjørn suggested that it'd be nicer to not have the cast in the fairly common case of doing *(u8 *)skb_put(skb, 1) = c; Add skb_put_u8() for this case, and use it across the code, using the following spatch: @@ expression SKB, C, S; typedef u8; identifier fn = {skb_put}; fresh identifier fn2 = fn ## "_u8"; @@ - *(u8 *)fn(SKB, S) = C; + fn2(SKB, C); Note that due to the "S", the spatch isn't perfect, it should have checked that S is 1, but there's also places that use a sizeof expression like sizeof(var) or sizeof(u8) etc. Turns out that nobody ever did something like *(u8 *)skb_put(skb, 2) = c; which would be wrong anyway since the second byte wouldn't be initialized.

DRAM supply shortage and poor memory pressure tracking in TCP stack makes any change in SO_SNDBUF/SO_RCVBUF (or equivalent autotuning limits) and tcp_mem[] quite hazardous. TCPMemoryPressures SNMP counter is an indication of tcp_mem sysctl limits being hit, but only tracking number of transitions. If TCP stack behavior under stress was perfect : 1) It would maintain memory usage close to the limit. 2) Memory pressure state would be entered for short times.

2017-05-08format-security: move static strings to constKees Cook1-1/+2
While examining output from trial builds with -Wformat-security enabled, many strings were found that should be defined as "const", or as a char array instead of char pointer. This makes some static analysis easier, by producing fewer false positives. As these are all trivial changes, it seemed best to put them all in a single patch rather than chopping them up per maintainer.

A large bunch of code cleanups, simplify the conntrack extension codebase, get rid of the fake conntrack object, speed up netns by selective synchronize_net() calls. More specifically, they are: 1) Check for ct->status bit instead of using nfct_nat() from IPVS and Netfilter codebase, patch from Florian Westphal. 2) Use kcalloc() wherever possible in the IPVS code, from Varsha Rao. 3) Simplify FTP IPVS helper module registration path, from Arushi Singhal. 4) Introduce nft_is_base_chain() helper function. 5) Enforce expectation limit from userspace conntrack helper, from Gao Feng. 6) Add nf_ct_remove_expect() helper function, from Gao Feng. 7) NAT mangle helper function return boolean, from Gao Feng. 8) ctnetlink_alloc_expect() should only work for conntrack with helpers, from Gao Feng. 9) Add nfnl_msg_type() helper function to nfnetlink to build the netlink message type. 10) Get rid of unnecessary cast on void, from simran singhal. 11) Use seq_puts()/seq_putc() instead of seq_printf() where possible, also from simran singhal. 12) Use list_prev_entry() from nf_tables, from simran signhal. 13) Remove unnecessary & on pointer function in the Netfilter and IPVS code. 14) Remove obsolete comment on set of rules per CPU in ip6_tables, no longer true. From Arushi Singhal. 15) Remove duplicated nf_conntrack_l4proto_udplite4, from Gao Feng. 16) Remove unnecessary nested rcu_read_lock() in __nf_nat_decode_session(). Code running from hooks are already guaranteed to run under RCU read side. 17) Remove deadcode in nf_tables_getobj(), from Aaron Conole. 18) Remove double assignment in nf_ct_l4proto_pernet_unregister_one(), also from Aaron. 19) Get rid of unsed __ip_set_get_netlink(), from Aaron Conole. 20) Don't propagate NF_DROP error to userspace via ctnetlink in __nf_nat_alloc_null_binding() function, from Gao Feng. 21) Revisit nf_ct_deliver_cached_events() to remove unnecessary checks, from Gao Feng. 22) Kill the fake untracked conntrack objects, use ctinfo instead to annotate a conntrack object is untracked, from Florian Westphal. 23) Remove nf_ct_is_untracked(), now obsolete since we have no conntrack template anymore, from Florian. 24) Add event mask support to nft_ct, also from Florian. 25) Move nf_conn_help structure to include/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_helper.h. 26) Add a fixed 32 bytes scratchpad area for conntrack helpers. Thus, we don't deal with variable conntrack extensions anymore. Make sure userspace conntrack helper doesn't go over that size. Remove variable size ct extension infrastructure now this code got no more clients. From Florian Westphal. 27) Restore offset and length of nf_ct_ext structure to 8 bytes now that wraparound is not possible any longer, also from Florian. 28) Allow to get rid of unassured flows under stress in conntrack, this applies to DCCP, SCTP and TCP protocols, from Florian. 29) Shrink size of nf_conntrack_ecache structure, from Florian. 30) Use TCP_MAX_WSCALE instead of hardcoded 14 in TCP tracker, from Gao Feng. 31) Register SYNPROXY hooks on demand, from Florian Westphal. 32) Use pernet hook whenever possible, instead of global hook registration, from Florian Westphal. 33) Pass hook structure to ebt_register_table() to consolidate some infrastructure code, from Florian Westphal. 34) Use consume_skb() and return NF_STOLEN, instead of NF_DROP in the SYNPROXY code, to make sure device stats are not fooled, patch from Gao Feng. 35) Remove NF_CT_EXT_F_PREALLOC this kills quite some code that we don't need anymore if we just select a fixed size instead of expensive runtime time calculation of this. From Florian. 36) Constify nf_ct_extend_register() and nf_ct_extend_unregister(), from Florian. 37) Simplify nf_ct_ext_add(), this kills nf_ct_ext_create(), from Florian. 38) Attach NAT extension on-demand from masquerade and pptp helper path, from Florian. 39) Get rid of useless ip_vs_set_state_timeout(), from Aaron Conole. 40) Speed up netns by selective calls of synchronize_net(), from Florian Westphal. 41) Silence stack size warning gcc in 32-bit arch in snmp helper, from Florian. 42) Inconditionally call nf_ct_ext_destroy(), even if we have no extensions, to deal with the NF_NAT_MANIP_SRC case.

2017-03-09net: Work around lockdep limitation in sockets that use socketsDavid Howells1-2/+3
Lockdep issues a circular dependency warning when AFS issues an operation through AF_RXRPC from a context in which the VFS/VM holds the mmap_sem. The theory lockdep comes up with is as follows: (1) If the pagefault handler decides it needs to read pages from AFS, it calls AFS with mmap_sem held and AFS begins an AF_RXRPC call, but creating a call requires the socket lock: mmap_sem must be taken before sk_lock-AF_RXRPC (2) afs_open_socket() opens an AF_RXRPC socket and binds it. rxrpc_bind() binds the underlying UDP socket whilst holding its socket lock. inet_bind() takes its own socket lock: sk_lock-AF_RXRPC must be taken before sk_lock-AF_INET (3) Reading from a TCP socket into a userspace buffer might cause a fault and thus cause the kernel to take the mmap_sem, but the TCP socket is locked whilst doing this: sk_lock-AF_INET must be taken before mmap_sem However, lockdep's theory is wrong in this instance because it deals only with lock classes and not individual locks. The AF_INET lock in (2) isn't really equivalent to the AF_INET lock in (3) as the former deals with a socket entirely internal to the kernel that never sees userspace. This is a limitation in the design of lockdep. Fix the general case by: (1) Double up all the locking keys used in sockets so that one set are used if the socket is created by userspace and the other set is used if the socket is created by the kernel. (2) Store the kern parameter passed to sk_alloc() in a variable in the sock struct (sk_kern_sock). This informs sock_lock_init(), sock_init_data() and sk_clone_lock() as to the lock keys to be used. Note that the child created by sk_clone_lock() inherits the parent's kern setting. (3) Add a 'kern' parameter to ->accept() that is analogous to the one passed in to ->create() that distinguishes whether kernel_accept() or sys_accept4() was the caller and can be passed to sk_alloc(). Note that a lot of accept functions merely dequeue an already allocated socket. I haven't touched these as the new socket already exists before we get the parameter. Note also that there are a couple of places where I've made the accepted socket unconditionally kernel-based: irda_accept() rds_rcp_accept_one() tcp_accept_from_sock() because they follow a sock_create_kern() and accept off of that. Whilst creating this, I noticed that lustre and ocfs don't create sockets through sock_create_kern() and thus they aren't marked as for-kernel, though they appear to be internal. I wonder if these should do that so that they use the new set of lock keys. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2015-12-14net: add validation for the socket syscall protocol argumentHannes Frederic Sowa1-0/+3
郭永刚 reported that one could simply crash the kernel as root by using a simple program: int socket_fd; struct sockaddr_in addr; addr.sin_port = 0; addr.sin_addr.s_addr = INADDR_ANY; addr.sin_family = 10; socket_fd = socket(10,3,0x40000000); connect(socket_fd , &addr,16); AF_INET, AF_INET6 sockets actually only support 8-bit protocol identifiers. inet_sock's skc_protocol field thus is sized accordingly, thus larger protocol identifiers simply cut off the higher bits and store a zero in the protocol fields. This could lead to e.g. NULL function pointer because as a result of the cut off inet_num is zero and we call down to inet_autobind, which is NULL for raw sockets. kernel: Call Trace: kernel: [<ffffffff816db90e>] ? inet_autobind+0x2e/0x70 kernel: [<ffffffff816db9a4>] inet_dgram_connect+0x54/0x80 kernel: [<ffffffff81645069>] SYSC_connect+0xd9/0x110 kernel: [<ffffffff810ac51b>] ? ptrace_notify+0x5b/0x80 kernel: [<ffffffff810236d8>] ? syscall_trace_enter_phase2+0x108/0x200 kernel: [<ffffffff81645e0e>] SyS_connect+0xe/0x10 kernel: [<ffffffff81779515>] tracesys_phase2+0x84/0x89 I found no particular commit which introduced this problem.

2015-10-16netfilter: turn NF_HOOK into an inline functionArnd Bergmann1-2/+0
A recent change to the dst_output handling caused a new warning when the call to NF_HOOK() is the only used of a local variable passed as 'dev', and CONFIG_NETFILTER is disabled: net/ipv6/ip6_output.c: In function 'ip6_output': net/ipv6/ip6_output.c:135:21: warning: unused variable 'dev' [-Wunused-variable] The reason for this is that the NF_HOOK macro in this case does not reference the variable at all, and the call to dev_net(dev) got removed from the ip6_output function. To avoid that warning now and in the future, this changes the macro into an equivalent inline function, which tells the compiler that the variable is passed correctly but still unused. The dn_forward function apparently had the same problem in the past and added a local workaround that no longer works with the inline function. In order to avoid a regression, we have to also remove the #ifdef from decnet in the same patch.

2015-09-17netfilter: Pass net into okfnEric W. Biederman3-8/+9
This is immediately motivated by the bridge code that chains functions that call into netfilter. Without passing net into the okfns the bridge code would need to guess about the best expression for the network namespace to process packets in. As net is frequently one of the first things computed in continuation functions after netfilter has done it's job passing in the desired network namespace is in many cases a code simplification. To support this change the function dst_output_okfn is introduced to simplify passing dst_output as an okfn. For the moment dst_output_okfn just silently drops the struct net. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

2015-09-17netfilter: Pass struct net into the netfilter hooksEric W. Biederman3-20/+23
Pass a network namespace parameter into the netfilter hooks. At the call site of the netfilter hooks the path a packet is taking through the network stack is well known which allows the network namespace to be easily and reliabily. This allows the replacement of magic code like "dev_net(state->in?:state->out)" that appears at the start of most netfilter hooks with "state->net". In almost all cases the network namespace passed in is derived from the first network device passed in, guaranteeing those paths will not see any changes in practice. The exceptions are: xfrm/xfrm_output.c:xfrm_output_resume() xs_net(skb_dst(skb)->xfrm) ipvs/ip_vs_xmit.c:ip_vs_nat_send_or_cont() ip_vs_conn_net(cp) ipvs/ip_vs_xmit.c:ip_vs_send_or_cont() ip_vs_conn_net(cp) ipv4/raw.c:raw_send_hdrinc() sock_net(sk) ipv6/ip6_output.c:ip6_xmit() sock_net(sk) ipv6/ndisc.c:ndisc_send_skb() dev_net(skb->dev) not dev_net(dst->dev) ipv6/raw.c:raw6_send_hdrinc() sock_net(sk) br_netfilter_hooks.c:br_nf_pre_routing_finish() dev_net(skb->dev) before skb->dev is set to nf_bridge->physindev In all cases these exceptions seem to be a better expression for the network namespace the packet is being processed in then the historic "dev_net(in?in:out)".

This switches IPv6 policy routing to use the shared fib_default_rule_pref() function of IPv4 and DECnet. It is also used in multicast routing for IPv4 as well as IPv6. The motivation for this patch is a complaint about iproute2 behaving inconsistent between IPv4 and IPv6 when adding policy rules: Formerly, IPv6 rules were assigned a fixed priority of 0x3FFF whereas for IPv4 the assigned priority value was decreased with each rule added. Since then all users of the default_pref field have been converted to assign the generic function fib_default_rule_pref(), fib_nl_newrule() may just use it directly instead. Therefore get rid of the function pointer altogether and make fib_default_rule_pref() static, as it's not used outside fib_rules.c anymore.
