Documentation: fix sctp_wmem in ip-sysctl.rst

2022-08-03T09:59:40+00:00

[ Upstream commit aa709da0e032cee7c202047ecd75f437bb0126ed ]

Since commit 1033990ac5b2 ("sctp: implement memory accounting on tx path"),
SCTP has supported memory accounting on tx path where 'sctp_wmem' is used
by sk_wmem_schedule(). So we should fix the description for this option in
ip-sysctl.rst accordingly.

v1->v2:
  - Improve the description as Marcelo suggested.

ipv4: Fix data-races around sysctl_ip_dynaddr.

2022-07-21T18:59:22+00:00

[ Upstream commit e49e4aff7ec19b2d0d0957ee30e93dade57dab9e ]

While reading sysctl_ip_dynaddr, it can be changed concurrently.
Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its readers.

While reading cipso sysctl variables, they can be changed concurrently.

bonding: fix ad_actor_system option setting to default

2021-12-29T11:23:35+00:00

[ Upstream commit 1c15b05baea71a5ff98235783e3e4ad227760876 ]

When 802.3ad bond mode is configured the ad_actor_system option is set to
"00:00:00:00:00:00". But when trying to set the all-zeroes MAC as actors'
system address it was failing with EINVAL.

An all-zeroes ethernet address is valid, only multicast addresses are not
valid values.

netfilter: ipvs: Fix reuse connection if RS weight is 0

2021-12-01T08:23:31+00:00

[ Upstream commit c95c07836fa4c1767ed11d8eca0769c652760e32 ]

We are changing expire_nodest_conn to work even for reused connections when
conn_reuse_mode=0, just as what was done with commit dc7b3eb900aa ("ipvs:
Fix reuse connection if real server is dead").

For controlled and persistent connections, the new connection will get the
needed real server depending on the rules in ip_vs_check_template().

icmp: randomize the global rate limiter

[ Upstream commit b38e7819cae946e2edf869e604af1e65a5d241c5 ]

Keyu Man reported that the ICMP rate limiter could be used
by attackers to get useful signal. Details will be provided
in an upcoming academic publication.

Our solution is to add some noise, so that the attackers
no longer can get help from the predictable token bucket limiter.

netfilter: nf_flowtable: fix documentation

commit 78e06cf430934fc3768c342cbebdd1013dcd6fa7 upstream.

In the flowtable documentation there is a missing semicolon, the command
as is would give this error:

    nftables.conf:5:27-33: Error: syntax error, unexpected devices, expecting newline or semicolon

can: j1939: fix address claim code example

commit 8ac9d71d601374222a230804e419cd40c4492e1c upstream.

During development the define J1939_PGN_ADDRESS_REQUEST was renamed to
J1939_PGN_REQUEST. It was forgotten to adjust the documentation
accordingly.

This patch fixes the name of the symbol.
