<title>vxlan: fix remcsum when GRO on and CHECKSUM_PARTIAL boundary is outer UDP</title>

<id>be73b3043bf465455d4c9b88f68e03b6447bcfb0</id>
<content type='text'>
In the case that GRO is turned on and the original received packet is
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL, if the outer UDP header is exactly at the last
csum-unnecessary point, which for instance could occur if the packet
comes from another Linux guest on the same Linux host, we have to do
either remcsum_adjust or set up CHECKSUM_PARTIAL again with its
csum_start properly reset considering RCO.

However, since b7fe10e5ebac("gro: Fix remcsum offload to deal with frags
in GRO") that barrier in such case could be skipped if GRO turned on,
hence we pass over it and the inner L4 validation mistakenly reckons
it as a bad csum.

This patch makes remcsum_offload being reset at the same time of GRO
remcsum cleanup, so as to make it work in such case as before.

refcount_t type and corresponding API should be
used instead of atomic_t when the variable is used as
a reference counter. This allows to avoid accidental
refcounter overflows that might lead to use-after-free

It's not a good idea to add the same hlist_node to two different hash lists.
This leads to various hard to debug memory corruptions.

Commit a985343ba906 ("vxlan: refactor verification and application of
configuration") modified vxlan device creation, and replaced the
assignment of vxlan-&gt;net to src_net with dev_net(netdev) in -&gt;setup().

But dev_net(netdev) is not the same as src_net. At the time -&gt;setup()
is called, dev_net hasn't been set yet, so we end up creating the
socket for the vxlan device in init_net.

Fix this by bringing back the assignment of vxlan-&gt;net during device
creation.

<title>vxlan: allow multiple VXLANs with same VNI for IPv6 link-local addresses</title>

As link-local addresses are only valid for a single interface, we can allow
to use the same VNI for multiple independent VXLANs, as long as the used
interfaces are distinct. This way, VXLANs can always be used as a drop-in
replacement for VLANs with greater ID space.

This also extends VNI lookup to respect the ifindex when link-local IPv6
addresses are used, so using the same VNI on multiple interfaces can
actually work.

If VXLAN is run over link-local IPv6 addresses, it is necessary to store
the ifindex in the FDB entries. Otherwise, the used interface is undefined
and unicast communication will most likely fail.

Support for link-local IPv4 addresses should be possible as well, but as
the semantics aren't as well defined as for IPv6, and there doesn't seem to
be much interest in having the support, it's not implemented for now.
