      packet: fix tp_reserve race in packet_set_ring · 91b2b39b
      Willem de Bruijn authored 
      
[ Upstream commit c27927e3 ]

Updates to tp_reserve can race with reads of the field in
packet_set_ring. Avoid this by holding the socket lock during
updates in setsockopt PACKET_RESERVE.

This bug was discovered by syzkaller.

      udp: consistently apply ufo or fragmentation · 2a8c396a
      Willem de Bruijn authored 
      
[ Upstream commit 85f1bd9a ]

When iteratively building a UDP datagram with MSG_MORE and that
datagram exceeds MTU, consistently choose UFO or fragmentation.

Once skb_is_gso, always apply ufo. Conversely, once a datagram is
split across multiple skbs, do not consider ufo.

Sendpage already maintains the first invariant, only add the second.
IPv6 does not have a sendpage implementation to modify.

A gso skb must have a partial checksum, do not follow sk_no_check_tx
in udp_send_skb.

Found by syzkaller.

      igmp: Fix regression caused by igmp sysctl namespace code. · 2b5e5a8d
      Nikolay Borisov authored 
      
[ Upstream commit 1714020e ]

Commit dcd87999 ("igmp: net: Move igmp namespace init to correct file")
moved the igmp sysctls initialization from tcp_sk_init to igmp_net_init. This
function is only called as part of per-namespace initialization, only if
CONFIG_IP_MULTICAST is defined, otherwise igmp_mc_init() call in ip_init is
compiled out, casuing the igmp pernet ops to not be registerd and those sysctl
being left initialized with 0. However, there are certain functions, such as
ip_mc_join_group which are always compiled and make use of some of those
sysctls. Let's do a partial revert of the aforementioned commit and move the
sysctl initialization into inet_init_net, that way they will always have
sane values.

      net: avoid skb_warn_bad_offload false positives on UFO · 8ad4bc97
      Willem de Bruijn authored 
      
[ Upstream commit 8d63bee6 ]

skb_warn_bad_offload triggers a warning when an skb enters the GSO
stack at __skb_gso_segment that does not have CHECKSUM_PARTIAL
checksum offload set.

Commit b2504a5d ("net: reduce skb_warn_bad_offload() noise")
observed that SKB_GSO_DODGY producers can trigger the check and
that passing those packets through the GSO handlers will fix it
up. But, the software UFO handler will set ip_summed to
CHECKSUM_NONE.

When __skb_gso_segment is called from the receive path, this
triggers the warning again.

Make UFO set CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY instead of CHECKSUM_NONE. On
Tx these two are equivalent. On Rx, this better matches the
skb state (checksum computed), as CHECKSUM_NONE here means no
checksum computed.

      qmi_wwan: fix NULL deref on disconnect · 4c345783
      Bjørn Mork authored 
      
[ Upstream commit bbae08e5 ]

qmi_wwan_disconnect is called twice when disconnecting devices with
separate control and data interfaces.  The first invocation will set
the interface data to NULL for both interfaces to flag that the
disconnect has been handled.  But the matching NULL check was left
out when qmi_wwan_disconnect was added, resulting in this oops:

      net: sched: set xt_tgchk_param par.nft_compat as 0 in ipt_init_target · 53531574
      Xin Long authored 
      
[ Upstream commit 96d97030 ]

Commit 55917a21 ("netfilter: x_tables: add context to know if
extension runs from nft_compat") introduced a member nft_compat to
xt_tgchk_param structure.

But it didn't set it's value for ipt_init_target. With unexpected
value in par.nft_compat, it may return unexpected result in some
target's checkentry.

This patch is to set all it's fields as 0 and only initialize the
non-zero fields in ipt_init_target.

v1->v2:
  As Wang Cong's suggestion, fix it by setting all it's fields as
  0 and only initializing the non-zero fields.

      net: sched: set xt_tgchk_param par.net properly in ipt_init_target · 882cce21
      Xin Long authored 
      
[ Upstream commit ec0acb09 ]

Now xt_tgchk_param par in ipt_init_target is a local varibale,
par.net is not initialized there. Later when xt_check_target
calls target's checkentry in which it may access par.net, it
would cause kernel panic.

Jaroslav found this panic when running:

  # ip link add TestIface type dummy
  # tc qd add dev TestIface ingress handle ffff:
  # tc filter add dev TestIface parent ffff: u32 match u32 0 0 \
    action xt -j CONNMARK --set-mark 4

This patch is to pass net param into ipt_init_target and set
par.net with it properly in there.

v1->v2:
  As Wang Cong pointed, I missed ipt_net_id != xt_net_id, so fix
  it by also passing net_id to __tcf_ipt_init.
v2->v3:
  Missed the fixes tag, so add it.

      bpf, s390: fix jit branch offset related to ldimm64 · c531692a
      Daniel Borkmann authored 
      
[ Upstream commit b0a0c256 ]

While testing some other work that required JIT modifications, I
run into test_bpf causing a hang when JIT enabled on s390. The
problematic test case was the one from ddc665a4 (bpf, arm64:
fix jit branch offset related to ldimm64), and turns out that we
do have a similar issue on s390 as well. In bpf_jit_prog() we
update next instruction address after returning from bpf_jit_insn()
with an insn_count. bpf_jit_insn() returns either -1 in case of
error (e.g. unsupported insn), 1 or 2. The latter is only the
case for ldimm64 due to spanning 2 insns, however, next address
is only set to i + 1 not taking actual insn_count into account,
thus fix is to use insn_count instead of 1. bpf_jit_enable in
mode 2 provides also disasm on s390:

      ipv6: set rt6i_protocol properly in the route when it is installed · f725c587
      Xin Long authored 
      
[ Upstream commit b91d5329 ]

After commit c2ed1880 ("net: ipv6: check route protocol when
deleting routes"), ipv6 route checks rt protocol when trying to
remove a rt entry.

It introduced a side effect causing 'ip -6 route flush cache' not
to work well. When flushing caches with iproute, all route caches
get dumped from kernel then removed one by one by sending DELROUTE
requests to kernel for each cache.

The thing is iproute sends the request with the cache whose proto
is set with RTPROT_REDIRECT by rt6_fill_node() when kernel dumps
it. But in kernel the rt_cache protocol is still 0, which causes
the cache not to be matched and removed.

So the real reason is rt6i_protocol in the route is not set when
it is allocated. As David Ahern's suggestion, this patch is to
set rt6i_protocol properly in the route when it is installed and
remove the codes setting rtm_protocol according to rt6i_flags in
rt6_fill_node.

This is also an improvement to keep rt6i_protocol consistent with
rtm_protocol.

      tcp: avoid setting cwnd to invalid ssthresh after cwnd reduction states · 4fe36242
      Yuchung Cheng authored 
      
[ Upstream commit ed254971 ]

If the sender switches the congestion control during ECN-triggered
cwnd-reduction state (CA_CWR), upon exiting recovery cwnd is set to
the ssthresh value calculated by the previous congestion control. If
the previous congestion control is BBR that always keep ssthresh
to TCP_INIFINITE_SSTHRESH, cwnd ends up being infinite. The safe
step is to avoid assigning invalid ssthresh value when recovery ends.

      ppp: fix xmit recursion detection on ppp channels · 5028e6c9
      Guillaume Nault authored 
      
[ Upstream commit 0a0e1a85 ]

Commit e5dadc65 ("ppp: Fix false xmit recursion detect with two ppp
devices") dropped the xmit_recursion counter incrementation in
ppp_channel_push() and relied on ppp_xmit_process() for this task.
But __ppp_channel_push() can also send packets directly (using the
.start_xmit() channel callback), in which case the xmit_recursion
counter isn't incremented anymore. If such packets get routed back to
the parent ppp unit, ppp_xmit_process() won't notice the recursion and
will call ppp_channel_push() on the same channel, effectively creating
the deadlock situation that the xmit_recursion mechanism was supposed
to prevent.

This patch re-introduces the xmit_recursion counter incrementation in
ppp_channel_push(). Since the xmit_recursion variable is now part of
the parent ppp unit, incrementation is skipped if the channel doesn't
have any. This is fine because only packets routed through the parent
unit may enter the channel recursively.

Finally, we have to ensure that pch->ppp is not going to be modified
while executing ppp_channel_push(). Instead of taking this lock only
while calling ppp_xmit_process(), we now have to hold it for the full
ppp_channel_push() execution. This respects the ppp locks ordering
which requires locking ->upl before ->downl.

      ppp: Fix false xmit recursion detect with two ppp devices · 67410cd2
      Gao Feng authored 
      
[ Upstream commit e5dadc65 ]

The global percpu variable ppp_xmit_recursion is used to detect the ppp
xmit recursion to avoid the deadlock, which is caused by one CPU tries to
lock the xmit lock twice. But it would report false recursion when one CPU
wants to send the skb from two different PPP devices, like one L2TP on the
PPPoE. It is a normal case actually.

Now use one percpu member of struct ppp instead of the gloable variable to
detect the xmit recursion of one ppp device.
