Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
"Mostly netfilter bug fixes in here, but we have some bits elsewhere as
well.
1) Don't do SNAT replies for non-NATed connections in IPVS, from
Julian Anastasov.
2) Don't delete conntrack helpers while they are still in use, from
Liping Zhang.
3) Fix zero padding in xtables's xt_data_to_user(), from Willem de
Bruijn.
4) Add proper RCU protection to nf_tables_dump_set() because we
cannot guarantee that we hold the NFNL_SUBSYS_NFTABLES lock. From
Liping Zhang.
5) Initialize rcv_mss in tcp_disconnect(), from Wei Wang.
6) smsc95xx devices can't handle IPV6 checksums fully, so don't
advertise support for offloading them. From Nisar Sayed.
7) Fix out-of-bounds access in __ip6_append_data(), from Eric
Dumazet.
8) Make atl2_probe() propagate the error code properly on failures,
from Alexey Khoroshilov.
9) arp_target[] in bond_check_params() is used uninitialized. This
got changes from a global static to a local variable, which is how
this mistake happened. Fix from Jarod Wilson.
10) Fix fallout from unnecessary NULL check removal in cls_matchall,
from Jiri Pirko. This is definitely brown paper bag territory..."

Since the head is guaranteed by the check above to be null, the call_rcu
would explode. Remove the previously logically dead code that was made
logically very much alive and kicking.

As reported by Michal, vsock_stream_sendmsg() could still
sleep at vsock_stream_has_space() after prepare_to_wait():
vsock_stream_has_space
vmci_transport_stream_has_space
vmci_qpair_produce_free_space
qp_lock

mutex_lock
Just switch to the new wait API like we did for commit

Andrey Konovalov and idaifish@gmail.com reported crashes caused by
one skb shared_info being overwritten from __ip6_append_data()
Andrey program lead to following state :
copy -4200 datalen 2000 fraglen 2040
maxfraglen 2040 alloclen 2048 transhdrlen 0 offset 0 fraggap 6200
The skb_copy_and_csum_bits(skb_prev, maxfraglen, data + transhdrlen,
fraggap, 0); is overwriting skb->head and skb_shared_info
Since we apparently detect this rare condition too late, move the
code earlier to even avoid allocating skb and risking crashes.
Once again, many thanks to Andrey and syzkaller team.

Since commit 76b91c32dd86 ("bridge: stp: when using userspace stp stop
kernel hello and hold timers"), bridge would not start hello_timer if
stp_enabled is not KERNEL_STP when br_dev_open.
The problem is even if users set stp_enabled with KERNEL_STP later,
the timer will still not be started. It causes that KERNEL_STP can
not really work. Users have to re-ifup the bridge to avoid this.
This patch is to fix it by starting br->hello_timer when enabling
KERNEL_STP in br_stp_start.
As an improvement, it's also to start hello_timer again only when
br->stp_enabled is KERNEL_STP in br_hello_timer_expired, there is
no reason to start the timer again when it's NO_STP.

Currently, when arp_accept is 1, we always override existing neigh
entries with incoming gratuitous ARP replies. Otherwise, we override
them only if new replies satisfy _locktime_ conditional (packets arrive
not earlier than _locktime_ seconds since the last update to the neigh
entry).
The idea behind locktime is to pick the very first (=> close) reply
received in a unicast burst when ARP proxies are used. This helps to
avoid ARP thrashing where Linux would switch back and forth from one
proxy to another.
This logic has nothing to do with gratuitous ARP replies that are
generally not aligned in time when multiple IP address carriers send
them into network.
This patch enforces overriding of existing neigh entries by all incoming
gratuitous ARP packets, irrespective of their time of arrival. This will
make the kernel honour all incoming gratuitous ARP packets.

The addr_type retrieval can be costly, so it's worth trying to avoid its
calculation as much as possible. This patch makes it calculated only
for gratuitous ARP packets. This is especially important since later we
may want to move is_garp calculation outside of arp_accept block, at
which point the costly operation will be executed for all setups.
The patch is the result of a discussion in net-dev:

When tcp_disconnect() is called, inet_csk_delack_init() sets
icsk->icsk_ack.rcv_mss to 0.
This could potentially cause tcp_recvmsg() => tcp_cleanup_rbuf() =>
__tcp_select_window() call path to have division by 0 issue.
So this patch initializes rcv_mss to TCP_MIN_MSS instead of 0.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says:
====================
Netfilter/IPVS fixes for net
The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS fixes for your net tree,
they are:
1) When using IPVS in direct-routing mode, normal traffic from the LVS
host to a back-end server is sometimes incorrectly NATed on the way
back into the LVS host. Patch to fix this from Julian Anastasov.
2) Calm down clang compilation warning in ctnetlink due to type
mismatch, from Matthias Kaehlcke.
3) Do not re-setup NAT for conntracks that are already confirmed, this
is fixing a problem that was introduced in the previous nf-next batch.
Patch from Liping Zhang.
4) Do not allow conntrack helper removal from userspace cthelper
infrastructure if already in used. This comes with an initial patch
to introduce nf_conntrack_helper_put() that is required by this fix.
From Liping Zhang.
5) Zero the pad when copying data to userspace, otherwise iptables fails
to remove rules. This is a follow up on the patchset that sorts out
the internal match/target structure pointer leak to userspace. Patch
from the same author, Willem de Bruijn. This also comes with a build
failure when CONFIG_COMPAT is not on, coming in the last patch of
this series.
6) SYNPROXY crashes with conntrack entries that are created via
ctnetlink, more specifically via conntrackd state sync. Patch from
Eric Leblond.
7) RCU safe iteration on set element dumping in nf_tables, from
Liping Zhang.
8) Missing sanitization of immediate date for the bitwise and cmp
expressions in nf_tables.
9) Refcounting logic for chain and objects from set elements does not
integrate into the nf_tables 2-phase commit protocol.
10) Missing sanitization of target verdict in ebtables arpreply target,
from Gao Feng.

Currently it is allowed to set the default pvid of a bridge to a value
above VLAN_VID_MASK (0xfff). This patch adds a check to br_validate and
returns -EINVAL in case the pvid is out of bounds.

[root@test ~]# ip l a type dummy
[root@test ~]# ip l s bridge0 type bridge vlan_filtering 1

The KASAN warning repoted below was discovered with a syzkaller
program. The reproducer is basically:
int s = socket(AF_INET6, SOCK_RAW, NEXTHDR_HOP);
send(s, &one_byte_of_data, 1, MSG_MORE);
send(s, &more_than_mtu_bytes_data, 2000, 0);
The socket() call sets the nexthdr field of the v6 header to
NEXTHDR_HOP, the first send call primes the payload with a non zero
byte of data, and the second send call triggers the fragmentation path.
The fragmentation code tries to parse the header options in order
to figure out where to insert the fragment option. Since nexthdr points
to an invalid option, the calculation of the size of the network header
can made to be much larger than the linear section of the skb and data
is read outside of it.
This fix makes ip6_find_1stfrag return an error if it detects
running out-of-bounds.

It's a common practice to send gratuitous ARPs after moving an
IP address to another device to speed up healing of a service. To
fulfill service availability constraints, the timing of network peers
updating their caches to point to a new location of an IP address can be
particularly important.
Sometimes neigh_update calls won't touch neither lladdr nor state, for
example if an update arrives in locktime interval. The neigh->updated
value is tested by the protocol specific neigh code, which in turn
will influence whether NEIGH_UPDATE_F_OVERRIDE gets set in the
call to neigh_update() or not. As a result, we may effectively ignore
the update request, bailing out of touching the neigh entry, except that
we still bump its timestamps inside neigh_update.
This may be a problem for updates arriving in quick succession. For
example, consider the following scenario:
A service is moved to another device with its IP address. The new device
sends three gratuitous ARP requests into the network with ~1 seconds
interval between them. Just before the first request arrives to one of
network peer nodes, its neigh entry for the IP address transitions from
STALE to DELAY. This transition, among other things, updates
neigh->updated. Once the kernel receives the first gratuitous ARP, it
ignores it because its arrival time is inside the locktime interval. The
kernel still bumps neigh->updated. Then the second gratuitous ARP
request arrives, and it's also ignored because it's still in the (new)
locktime interval. Same happens for the third request. The node
eventually heals itself (after delay_first_probe_time seconds since the
initial transition to DELAY state), but it just wasted some time and
require a new ARP request/reply round trip. This unfortunate behaviour
both puts more load on the network, as well as reduces service
availability.
This patch changes neigh_update so that it bumps neigh->updated (as well
as neigh->confirmed) only once we are sure that either lladdr or entry
state will change). In the scenario described above, it means that the
second gratuitous ARP request will actually update the entry lladdr.
Ideally, we would update the neigh entry on the very first gratuitous
ARP request. The locktime mechanism is designed to ignore ARP updates in
a short timeframe after a previous ARP update was honoured by the kernel
layer. This would require tracking timestamps for state transitions
separately from timestamps when actual updates are received. This would
probably involve changes in neighbour struct. Therefore, the patch
doesn't tackle the issue of the first gratuitous APR ignored, leaving
it for a follow-up.

When arp_accept is 1, gratuitous ARPs are supposed to override matching
entries irrespective of whether they arrive during locktime. This was
implemented in commit 56022a8fdd87 ("ipv4: arp: update neighbour address
when a gratuitous arp is received and arp_accept is set")
There is a glitch in the patch though. RFC 2002, section 4.6, "ARP,
Proxy ARP, and Gratuitous ARP", defines gratuitous ARPs so that they can
be either of Request or Reply type. Those Reply gratuitous ARPs can be
triggered with standard tooling, for example, arping -A option does just
that.
This patch fixes the glitch, making both Request and Reply flavours of
gratuitous ARPs to behave identically.
As per RFC, if gratuitous ARPs are of Reply type, their Target Hardware
Address field should also be set to the link-layer address to which this
cache entry should be updated. The field is present in ARP over Ethernet
but not in IEEE 1394. In this patch, I don't consider any broadcasted
ARP replies as gratuitous if the field is not present, to conform the
standard. It's not clear whether there is such a thing for IEEE 1394 as
a gratuitous ARP reply; until it's cleared up, we will ignore such
broadcasts. Note that they will still update existing ARP cache entries,
assuming they arrive out of locktime time interval.

In general, rtnetlink dumps do not anticipate failure to dump a single
object (e.g., link or route) on a single pass. As both route and link
objects have grown via more attributes, that is no longer a given.
netlink dumps can handle a failure if the dump function returns an
error; specifically, netlink_dump adds the return code to the response
if it is <= 0 so userspace is notified of the failure. The missing
piece is the rtnetlink dump functions returning the error.
Fix route and link dump functions to return the errors if no object is
added to an skb (detected by skb->len != 0). IPv6 route dumps
(rt6_dump_route) already return the error; this patch updates IPv4 and
link dumps. Other dump functions may need to be ajusted as well.

has successfully configured and established an SMC-connection until ten
minutes after the last SMC connection is closed. Because this is considered
a security risk, drivers are supposed to use IB_PD_UNSAFE_GLOBAL_RKEY in
such a case.
This patch changes the current SMC code to use IB_PD_UNSAFE_GLOBAL_RKEY.

tcp_ack() can call tcp_fragment() which may dededuct the
value tp->fackets_out when MSS changes. When prior_fackets
is larger than tp->fackets_out, tcp_clean_rtx_queue() can
invoke tcp_update_reordering() with negative values. This
results in absurd tp->reodering values higher than
sysctl_tcp_max_reordering.
Note that tcp_update_reordering indeeds sets tp->reordering
to min(sysctl_tcp_max_reordering, metric), but because
the comparison is signed, a negative metric always wins.

The info->target comes from userspace and it would be used directly.
So we need to add the sanity check to make sure it is a valid standard
target, although the ebtables tool has already checked it. Kernel needs
to validate anything coming from userspace.
If the target is set as an evil value, it would break the ebtables
and cause a panic. Because the non-standard target is treated as one
offset.
Now add one helper function ebt_invalid_target, and we would replace
the macro INVALID_TARGET later.

Every address gets added with TENTATIVE flag even for the addresses with
IFA_F_NODAD flag and dad-work is scheduled for them. During this DAD process
we realize it's an address with NODAD and complete the process without
sending any probe. However the TENTATIVE flags stays on the
address for sometime enough to cause misinterpretation when we receive a NS.
While processing NS, if the address has TENTATIVE flag, we mark it DADFAILED
and endup with an address that was originally configured as NODAD with
DADFAILED.
We can't avoid scheduling dad_work for addresses with NODAD but we can
avoid adding TENTATIVE flag to avoid this racy situation.

Andreas reports that the following incremental update using our commit
protocol doesn't work.
# nft -f incremental-update.nft
delete element ip filter client_to_any { 10.180.86.22 : goto CIn_1 }
delete chain ip filter CIn_1
... Error: Could not process rule: Device or resource busy
The existing code is not well-integrated into the commit phase protocol,
since element deletions do not result in refcount decrement from the
preparation phase. This results in bogus EBUSY errors like the one
above.
Two new functions come with this patch:
* nft_set_elem_activate() function is used from the abort path, to
restore the set element refcounting on objects that occurred from
the preparation phase.
* nft_set_elem_deactivate() that is called from nft_del_setelem() to
decrement set element refcounting on objects from the preparation
phase in the commit protocol.
The nft_data_uninit() has been renamed to nft_data_release() since this
function does not uninitialize any data store in the data register,
instead just releases the references to objects. Moreover, a new
function nft_data_hold() has been introduced to be used from
nft_set_elem_activate().

When looking up an iptables rule, the iptables binary compares the
aligned match and target data (XT_ALIGN). In some cases this can
exceed the actual data size to include padding bytes.
Before commit f77bc5b23fb1 ("iptables: use match, target and data
copy_to_user helpers") the malloc()ed bytes were overwritten by the
kernel with kzalloced contents, zeroing the padding and making the
comparison succeed. After this patch, the kernel copies and clears
only data, leaving the padding bytes undefined.
Extend the clear operation from data size to aligned data size to
include the padding bytes, if any.
Padding bytes can be observed in both match and target, and the bug
triggered, by issuing a rule with match icmp and target ACCEPT:
iptables -t mangle -A INPUT -i lo -p icmp --icmp-type 1 -j ACCEPT
iptables -t mangle -D INPUT -i lo -p icmp --icmp-type 1 -j ACCEPT

Commit 0ca50d12fe46 ("sctp: fix src address selection if using secondary
addresses") has fixed a src address selection issue when using secondary
addresses for ipv4.
Now sctp ipv6 also has the similar issue. When using a secondary address,
sctp_v6_get_dst tries to choose the saddr which has the most same bits
with the daddr by sctp_v6_addr_match_len. It may make some cases not work
as expected.
hostA:
[1] fd21:356b:459a:cf10::11 (eth1)
[2] fd21:356b:459a:cf20::11 (eth2)
hostB:
[a] fd21:356b:459a:cf30::2 (eth1)
[b] fd21:356b:459a:cf40::2 (eth2)
route from hostA to hostB:
fd21:356b:459a:cf30::/64 dev eth1 metric 1024 mtu 1500
The expected path should be:
fd21:356b:459a:cf10::11 <-> fd21:356b:459a:cf30::2
But addr[2] matches addr[a] more bits than addr[1] does, according to
sctp_v6_addr_match_len. It causes the path to be:
fd21:356b:459a:cf20::11 <-> fd21:356b:459a:cf30::2
This patch is to fix it with the same way as Marcelo's fix for sctp ipv4.
As no ip_dev_find for ipv6, this patch is to use ipv6_chk_addr to check
if the saddr is in a dev instead.
Note that for backwards compatibility, it will still do the addr_match_len
check here when no optimal is found.

The macro tipc_wait_for_cond() is embedding the macro sk_wait_event()
to fulfil its task. The latter, in turn, is evaluating the stated
condition outside the socket lock context. This is problematic if
the condition is accessing non-trivial data structures which may be
altered by incoming interrupts, as is the case with the cong_links()
linked list, used by socket to keep track of the current set of
congested links. We sometimes see crashes when this list is accessed
by a condition function at the same time as a SOCK_WAKEUP interrupt
is removing an element from the list.
We fix this by expanding selected parts of sk_wait_event() into the
outer macro, while ensuring that all evaluations of a given condition
are performed under socket lock protection.

tcp_match_sack_to_skb() splits the skb and marks the second fragment
as SACKed.
The current code further attempts rounding up the first fragment
to MSS boundaries. But it misses a boundary condition when the
rounded-up fragment size (pkt_len) is exactly skb size. Spliting
such an skb is pointless and causses a kernel warning and aborts
the SACK processing. This patch universally checks such over-split
before calling tcp_fragment to prevent these unnecessary warnings.

I should have known that lowering skb->truesize was dangerous :/
In case packets are not leaving the host via a standard Ethernet device,
but looped back to local sockets, bad things can happen, as reported
by Michael Madsen ( https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195713 )
So instead of tweaking skb->truesize, lets change skb->destructor
and keep a reference on the owner socket via its sk_refcnt.

While working on the iproute2 generic XDP frontend, I noticed that
as of right now it's possible to have native *and* generic XDP
programs loaded both at the same time for the case when a driver
supports native XDP.
The intended model for generic XDP from b5cdae3291f7 ("net: Generic
XDP") is, however, that only one out of the two can be present at
once which is also indicated as such in the XDP netlink dump part.
The main rationale for generic XDP is to ease accessibility (in
case a driver does not yet have XDP support) and to generically
provide a semantical model as an example for driver developers
wanting to add XDP support. The generic XDP option for an XDP
aware driver can still be useful for comparing and testing both
implementations.
However, it is not intended to have a second XDP processing stage
or layer with exactly the same functionality of the first native
stage. Only reason could be to have a partial fallback for future
XDP features that are not supported yet in the native implementation
and we probably also shouldn't strive for such fallback and instead
encourage native feature support in the first place. Given there's
currently no such fallback issue or use case, lets not go there yet
if we don't need to.
Therefore, change semantics for loading XDP and bail out if the
user tries to load a generic XDP program when a native one is
present and vice versa. Another alternative to bailing out would
be to handle the transition from one flavor to another gracefully,
but that would require to bring the device down, exchange both
types of programs, and bring it up again in order to avoid a tiny
window where a packet could hit both hooks. Given this complicates
the logic for just a debugging feature in the native case, I went
with the simpler variant.
For the dump, remove IFLA_XDP_FLAGS that was added with b5cdae3291f7
and reuse IFLA_XDP_ATTACHED for indicating the mode. Dumping all
or just a subset of flags that were used for loading the XDP prog
is suboptimal in the long run since not all flags are useful for
dumping and if we start to reuse the same flag definitions for
load and dump, then we'll waste bit space. What we really just
want is to dump the mode for now.
Current IFLA_XDP_ATTACHED semantics are: nothing was installed (0),
a program is running at the native driver layer (1). Thus, add a
mode that says that a program is running at generic XDP layer (2).
Applications will handle this fine in that older binaries will
just indicate that something is attached at XDP layer, effectively
this is similar to IFLA_XDP_FLAGS attr that we would have had
modulo the redundancy.

After commit b5cdae3291f7 ("net: Generic XDP") we automatically fall
back to a generic XDP variant if the driver does not support native
XDP. Allow for an option where the user can specify that always the
native XDP variant should be selected and in case it's not supported
by a driver, just bail out.
