commit ef3e34874d2332d0f63e72c2c35ce5c93568c125 upstream.

mt7925_usb_sdio_tx_prepare_skb() pushes a TX descriptor and a USB
header onto every skb and assumes the headroom for them is already
there. That holds for locally generated traffic, where mac80211
reserves hw-&gt;extra_tx_headroom, but forwarded frames are sent through
ieee80211_8023_xmit(), which does not reserve it. Bridge a wired
interface to an mt7925u AP and the first forwarded frame that arrives
short panics the kernel:

 skbuff: skb_under_panic: len:415 put:4 tail:0x19b end:0x640 dev:wlan1
 kernel BUG at net/core/skbuff.c:212!
 Call trace:

  __mt76_worker_fn+0x84/0x150 [mt76]

Whether a given setup hits it depends on how much headroom the ingress
netdev leaves in its rx skbs. Reproduced on a Raspberry Pi 5 bridging
onboard ethernet to a Netgear A9000; originally reported on an MT7986
router running OpenWrt. Nick Morrow's testing on a Pi 4 (bcmgenet),
which leaves more headroom, helped narrow the trigger to the ingress
path.

The same bug was fixed on mt7921 by commit 98c4d0abf5c4 ("mt76:
mt7921: don't assume adequate headroom for SDIO headers"), but mt7925
was copied from mt7921 without the fix. Add the same guard here.

<title>vxlan: keep the last remote linked during FDB flush</title>

commit d5d4a7b538b52db63927773a8905fcd9f78a42e2 upstream.

A non-nexthop FDB entry is expected to have at least one remote while it
remains reachable through the FDB hash table. A filtered bulk flush
violates this invariant when every remote matches: It unlinks the last
remote in vxlan_fdb_dst_destroy() and only afterwards tells vxlan_flush()
to destroy the parent FDB entry.

An RCU reader can find the parent during this interval.
first_remote_rcu() then applies list_entry_rcu() to the empty list head,
producing an invalid remote pointer that the receive learning path can
read from and write to.

When a matching remote is the sole remaining remote, leave it linked and
ask the caller to destroy the entire FDB entry. vxlan_fdb_destroy() keeps
the remote attached while sending the deletion notification and removing
the parent from the lookup structures.

<title>gtp: serialize PDP context updates</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 498386b6d402737db1e2eeed4c385acbf0ef9e34 upstream.

PDP contexts can be deleted through GTP_CMD_DELPDP or while the GTP
network device is being unregistered. The latter is serialized by RTNL,
but the generic-netlink delete path only holds RCU.

Running both paths concurrently can therefore make both paths delete the
same PDP context. The issue was found through static analysis and
reproduced on a KASAN-enabled kernel by a simple two-thread program
racing GTP_CMD_DELPDP against RTM_DELLINK:

  Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address
  KASAN: maybe wild-memory-access in range
         [0xdead000000000120-0xdead000000000127]
  RIP: gtp_genl_del_pdp+0x1c1/0x420 [gtp]
  RBP: dead000000000122

The second deletion dereferenced the poisoned hlist pprev pointer.

Serialize gtp_pdp_add(), gtp_genl_del_pdp(), and gtp_dellink() with a
shared mutex. Keep the mutex held until the final use of a PDP context in
the NEWPDP path, and keep the RCU read-side section around the complete
PDP context use in the DELPDP path.

<title>net/ionic: avoid OOB TX partner lookup for hwstamp RXQ</title>

commit d92255b405fb6f5acca408239ccd742e0a42c9cb upstream.

The dedicated hardware timestamp RX queue is allocated with q-&gt;index
equal to lif-&gt;ionic-&gt;nrxqs_per_lif. The normal txqcqs array only
contains the regular queue pairs, so using that index to set rxq-&gt;partner
can read one entry past txqcqs[] and then write through the derived
pointer.
Only link RX/TX partners for normal queue-pair indexes. Leave the hwstamp
RX queue unpaired, and make the XDP_TX path abort cleanly if an RX queue
has no TX partner.

Split mt7921_mcu_regd_update() into two functions to prevent recursive
mutex acquisition. Introduce __mt7921_mcu_regd_update() as the internal
implementation that assumes the mutex is already held by the caller,
while mt7921_mcu_regd_update() remains as the external interface that
handles mutex acquisition and release.

This fixes a deadlock issue when mt7921_regd_set_6ghz_power_type() is
called with the device mutex already held. Without this change, calling
mt7921_mcu_regd_update() would attempt to acquire the same mutex again,
causing a recursive lock deadlock.

The __mt7921_mcu_regd_update() function can be safely called when the
caller has already acquired the device mutex, avoiding the deadlock
while maintaining proper synchronization for regulatory domain updates.

That commit made mt76_dma_cleanup() disable every RX NAPI instance before
deleting it, to silence WARNs in __netif_napi_del_locked() and
page_pool_disable_direct_recycling() seen when unloading mt7915e with an
MT7916.

On mt7921e and mt7925e the same instances are already disabled earlier,
in mt7921e_unregister_device() and mt7925e_unregister_device(), which
only afterwards call mt792x_dma_cleanup() -&gt; mt76_dma_cleanup().  Each
instance is therefore disabled twice, and napi_disable() is not
idempotent: on return it leaves NAPIF_STATE_SCHED and NAPIF_STATE_NPSVC
set, so the second call spins in usleep_range() forever, waiting for bits
that nobody will clear.

mt7921_pci_shutdown() and mt7925_pci_shutdown() reuse the remove path, so
this is hit on every reboot, poweroff and module unload.  It is silent:
the stuck task keeps sleeping and rescheduling, so neither the hung task
detector nor the lockup detectors fire, and the last line on the console
is "systemd-shutdown[1]: Rebooting."

Dropping the two driver-side loops instead was tried and rejected: with
them gone, the RX poll can reach mt76_token_release() via
PKT_TYPE_TXRX_NOTIFY and mt7921_mac_tx_free() while
mt76_connac2_tx_token_put() is running idr_destroy(&amp;dev-&gt;token) outside
token_lock, which is a use-after-free rather than a hang [1].

Revert for now, so that reboot, poweroff and module unload work again.
The WARNs on mt7915e are a less severe problem than an unbootable
machine, and fixing them belongs in the drivers that delete the NAPI
instances, where each one can pick a point that is safe for its own
teardown order, rather than in the shared mt76_dma_cleanup().

[ This is the "landing soonish" known regression fix mentioned in the
  previous networking merge commit       - Linus ]

Antonio Quartulli says:

====================
Included fixes:

* release key slot crypto transforms from a workqueue rather than an RCU
  callback, because crypto_free_aead() may sleep with async or hardware
  implementations
* run all deferred ovpn work on a module-owned workqueue and drain it on
  module exit, so no work item can still be executing module text after
  the module is unloaded
* finish crypto callback cleanup (key slot release and leftover skb)
  before dropping the peer reference that gates netdev unregistration
  and module removal
* avoid dereferencing a NULL key slot when userspace asks to kill a key
  that is not installed on the peer

* tag 'ovpn-net-20260809' of https://github.com/OpenVPN/ovpn-net-next:
  ovpn: defer key slot crypto freeing to workqueue
  ovpn: run deferred work on a module-owned workqueue
  ovpn: finish crypto callback cleanup before peer release
  ovpn: fix NULL dereference when killing missing key

<title>net: ethernet: ti: am65-cpsw-nuss: Fix port_id extraction from SRC TAG</title>

<id>36a05d2820077bb3955acb8111e1041d39148037</id>
<content type='text'>
On the packet reception path, the ID of the MAC Port on which the packet
was received, is embedded in the RX DMA Descriptor's metadata. The ID is
extracted using the helper function cppi5_desc_get_tags_ids() which fills
in the 16-bit Source Tag into the 'port_id' variable. However, it is only
the lower 8-bits of the 16-bit Source Tag that represent the MAC Port ID,
while the upper 8-bits are Hardware-Reserved and carry an arbitrary value.
With the existing logic, sporadic kernel crash is observed due to the
subsequent driver code accessing out-of-bound memory because of an invalid
port_id.

Hence, fix the port_id extraction logic to use only the lower 8-bits of the
Source Tag as the MAC Port ID.
