[ Upstream commit ceae266bf0ae6564ac16d086bf749a096fa90ded ]

There's some NICs, such as hinic, with NETIF_F_IP_CSUM and NETIF_F_TSO
on but NETIF_F_HW_CSUM off. And ipvlan device features will be
NETIF_F_TSO on with NETIF_F_IP_CSUM and NETIF_F_IP_CSUM both off as
IPVLAN_FEATURES only care about NETIF_F_HW_CSUM. So TSO will be
disabled in netdev_fix_features.
For example:
Features for enp129s0f0:
rx-checksumming: on
tx-checksumming: on
        tx-checksum-ipv4: on
        tx-checksum-ip-generic: off [fixed]
        tx-checksum-ipv6: on

[ Upstream commit 7cc9f7003a969d359f608ebb701d42cafe75b84a ]

When running Docker with userns isolation e.g. --userns-remap="default"
and spawning up some containers with CAP_NET_ADMIN under this realm, I
noticed that link changes on ipvlan slave device inside that container
can affect all devices from this ipvlan group which are in other net
namespaces where the container should have no permission to make changes
to, such as the init netns, for example.

This effectively allows to undo ipvlan private mode and switch globally to
bridge mode where slaves can communicate directly without going through
hostns, or it allows to switch between global operation mode (l2/l3/l3s)
for everyone bound to the given ipvlan master device. libnetwork plugin
here is creating an ipvlan master and ipvlan slave in hostns and a slave
each that is moved into the container's netns upon creation event.

* In hostns:

  # ip -d a
  [...]
  8: cilium_host@bond0: &lt;BROADCAST,MULTICAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP&gt; mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
     link/ether 0c:c4:7a:e1:3d:cc brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff promiscuity 0 minmtu 68 maxmtu 65535
     ipvlan  mode l3 bridge numtxqueues 1 numrxqueues 1 gso_max_size 65536 gso_max_segs 65535
     inet 10.41.0.1/32 scope link cilium_host
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
  [...]

* Spawn container &amp; change ipvlan mode setting inside of it:

  # docker run -dt --cap-add=NET_ADMIN --network cilium-net --name client -l app=test cilium/netperf
  9fff485d69dcb5ce37c9e33ca20a11ccafc236d690105aadbfb77e4f4170879c

      inet 10.41.197.43/32 brd 10.41.197.43 scope global cilium0
         valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

* In hostns (mode switched to l2):

  # ip -d a
  [...]
  8: cilium_host@bond0: &lt;BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP&gt; mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
      link/ether 0c:c4:7a:e1:3d:cc brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff promiscuity 0 minmtu 68 maxmtu 65535

         valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
  [...]

Same l3 -&gt; l2 switch would also happen by creating another slave inside
the container's network namespace when specifying the existing cilium0
link to derive the actual (bond0) master:

  # docker exec -ti client ip link add link cilium0 name cilium1 type ipvlan mode l2

  # docker exec -ti client ip -d a
  [...]

         valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

* In hostns:

  # ip -d a

      inet 10.41.0.1/32 scope link cilium_host
         valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
  [...]

One way to mitigate it is to check CAP_NET_ADMIN permissions of
the ipvlan master device's ns, and only then allow to change
mode or flags for all devices bound to it. Above two cases are
then disallowed after the patch.

[ Upstream commit d5256083f62e2720f75bb3c5a928a0afe47d6bc3 ]

While implementing ipvlan l3 and l3s mode for kubernetes CNI plugin,
I ran into the issue that while l3 mode is working fine, l3s mode
does not have any connectivity to kube-apiserver and hence all pods
end up in Error state as well. The ipvlan master device sits on
top of a bond device and hostns traffic to kube-apiserver (also running
in hostns) is DNATed from 10.152.183.1:443 to 139.178.29.207:37573
where the latter is the address of the bond0. While in l3 mode, a
curl to https://10.152.183.1:443 or to https://139.178.29.207:37573
works fine from hostns, neither of them do in case of l3s. In the
latter only a curl to https://127.0.0.1:37573 appeared to work where
for local addresses of bond0 I saw kernel suddenly starting to emit
ARP requests to query HW address of bond0 which remained unanswered
and neighbor entries in INCOMPLETE state. These ARP requests only
happen while in l3s.

Debugging this further, I found the issue is that l3s mode is piggy-
backing on l3 master device, and in this case local routes are using
l3mdev_master_dev_rcu(dev) instead of net-&gt;loopback_dev as per commit
f5a0aab84b74 ("net: ipv4: dst for local input routes should use l3mdev
if relevant") and 5f02ce24c269 ("net: l3mdev: Allow the l3mdev to be
a loopback"). I found that reverting them back into using the
net-&gt;loopback_dev fixed ipvlan l3s connectivity and got everything
working for the CNI.

Now judging from 4fbae7d83c98 ("ipvlan: Introduce l3s mode") and the
l3mdev paper in [0] the only sole reason why ipvlan l3s is relying
on l3 master device is to get the l3mdev_ip_rcv() receive hook for
setting the dst entry of the input route without adding its own
ipvlan specific hacks into the receive path, however, any l3 domain
semantics beyond just that are breaking l3s operation. Note that
ipvlan also has the ability to dynamically switch its internal
operation from l3 to l3s for all ports via ipvlan_set_port_mode()
at runtime. In any case, l3 vs l3s soley distinguishes itself by
'de-confusing' netfilter through switching skb-&gt;dev to ipvlan slave
device late in NF_INET_LOCAL_IN before handing the skb to L4.

Minimal fix taken here is to add a IFF_L3MDEV_RX_HANDLER flag which,
if set from ipvlan setup, gets us only the wanted l3mdev_l3_rcv() hook
without any additional l3mdev semantics on top. This should also have
minimal impact since dev-&gt;priv_flags is already hot in cache. With
this set, l3s mode is working fine and I also get things like
masquerading pod traffic on the ipvlan master properly working.

[ Upstream commit 5dc2d3996a8b221c20dd0900bdad45031a572530 ]

After we change the ipvlan mode from l3 to l2, or vice versa, we only
reset IFF_NOARP flag, but don't flush the ARP table cache, which will
cause eth-&gt;h_dest to be equal to eth-&gt;h_source in ipvlan_xmit_mode_l2().
Then the message will not come out of host.

Here is the reproducer on local host:

ip link set eth1 up
ip addr add 192.168.1.1/24 dev eth1
ip link add link eth1 ipvlan1 type ipvlan mode l3

ip netns add net1
ip link set ipvlan1 netns net1
ip netns exec net1 ip link set ipvlan1 up
ip netns exec net1 ip addr add 192.168.2.1/24 dev ipvlan1

ip route add 192.168.2.0/24 via 192.168.1.2
ping 192.168.2.2 -c 2

ip netns exec net1 ip link set ipvlan1 type ipvlan mode l2
ping 192.168.2.2 -c 2

Add the same configuration on remote host. After we set the mode to l2,
we could find that the src/dst MAC addresses are the same on eth1:

21:26:06.648565 00:b7:13:ad:d3:05 &gt; 00:b7:13:ad:d3:05, ethertype IPv4 (0x0800), length 98: (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 58356, offset 0, flags [DF], proto ICMP (1), length 84)
    192.168.2.1 &gt; 192.168.2.2: ICMP echo request, id 22686, seq 1, length 64

Fix this by calling dev_change_flags(), which will call netdevice notifier
with flag change info.

v2:
a) As pointed out by Wang Cong, check return value for dev_change_flags() when
change dev flags.
b) As suggested by Stefano and Sabrina, move flags setting before l3mdev_ops.
So we don't need to redo ipvlan_{, un}register_nf_hook() again in err path.

Commit 296d48568042 ("ipvlan: inherit MTU from master device") adjusted
the mtu from the master device when creating a ipvlan device, but it
would also override the mtu value set in rtnl_create_link. It causes
IFLA_MTU param not to take effect.

So this patch is to not adjust the mtu if IFLA_MTU param is set when
creating a ipvlan device.

[ Upstream commit 92ff42645028fa6f9b8aa767718457b9264316b4 ]

Packets that don't have dest mac as the mac of the master device should
not be entertained by the IPvlan rx-handler. This is mostly true as the
packet path mostly takes care of that, except when the master device is
a virtual device. As demonstrated in the following case -

  ip netns add ns1
  ip link add ve1 type veth peer name ve2
  ip link add link ve2 name iv1 type ipvlan mode l2
  ip link set dev iv1 netns ns1
  ip link set ve1 up
  ip link set ve2 up
  ip -n ns1 link set iv1 up
  ip addr add 192.168.10.1/24 dev ve1
  ip -n ns1 addr 192.168.10.2/24 dev iv1
  ping -c2 192.168.10.2
  &lt;Works!&gt;
  ip neigh show dev ve1
  ip neigh show 192.168.10.2 lladdr &lt;random&gt; dev ve1
  ping -c2 192.168.10.2
  &lt;Still works! Wrong!!&gt;

This patch adds that missing check in the IPvlan rx-handler.

<title>tap: reference to KVA of an unloaded module causes kernel panic</title>

<content type='text'>
The commit 9a393b5d5988 ("tap: tap as an independent module") created a
separate tap module that implements tap functionality and exports
interfaces that will be used by macvtap and ipvtap modules to create
create respective tap devices.

However, that patch introduced a regression wherein the modules macvtap
and ipvtap can be removed (through modprobe -r) while there are
applications using the respective /dev/tapX devices. These applications
cause kernel to hold reference to /dev/tapX through 'struct cdev
macvtap_cdev' and 'struct cdev ipvtap_dev' defined in macvtap and ipvtap
modules respectively. So,  when the application is later closed the
kernel panics because we are referencing KVA that is present in the
unloaded modules.

----------8&lt;------- Example ----------8&lt;----------
$ sudo ip li add name mv0 link enp7s0 type macvtap
$ sudo ip li show mv0 |grep mv0| awk -e '{print $1 $2}'
  14:mv0@enp7s0:
$ cat /dev/tap14 &amp;
$ lsmod |egrep -i 'tap|vlan'
macvtap                16384  0
macvlan                24576  1 macvtap
tap                    24576  3 macvtap
$ sudo modprobe -r macvtap
$ fg
cat /dev/tap14
^C

&lt;...system panics...&gt;
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffffa038c500
IP: cdev_put+0xf/0x30
----------8&lt;-----------------8&lt;----------

The fix is to set cdev.owner to the module that creates the tap device
(either macvtap or ipvtap). With this set, the operations (in
fs/char_dev.c) on char device holds and releases the module through
cdev_get() and cdev_put() and will not allow the module to unload
prematurely.

====================
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.

    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.

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

====================
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.
