[ Upstream commit 48a1df65334b74bd7531f932cca5928932abf769 ]

This is a defense-in-depth measure in response to bugs like
4d6fa57b4dab ("macsec: avoid heap overflow in skb_to_sgvec"). There's
not only a potential overflow of sglist items, but also a stack overflow
potential, so we fix this by limiting the amount of recursion this function
is allowed to do. Not actually providing a bounded base case is a future
disaster that we can easily avoid here.

As a small matter of house keeping, we take this opportunity to move the
documentation comment over the actual function the documentation is for.

While this could be implemented by using an explicit stack of skbuffs,
when implementing this, the function complexity increased considerably,
and I don't think such complexity and bloat is actually worth it. So,
instead I built this and tested it on x86, x86_64, ARM, ARM64, and MIPS,
and measured the stack usage there. I also reverted the recent MIPS
changes that give it a separate IRQ stack, so that I could experience
some worst-case situations. I found that limiting it to 24 layers deep
yielded a good stack usage with room for safety, as well as being much
deeper than any driver actually ever creates.

[ Upstream commit 2b5ec1a5f9738ee7bf8f5ec0526e75e00362c48f ]

When run ipvs in two different network namespace at the same host, and one
ipvs transport network traffic to the other network namespace ipvs.
'ipvs_property' flag will make the second ipvs take no effect. So we should
clear 'ipvs_property' when SKB network namespace changed.

<title>net: better skb-&gt;sender_cpu and skb-&gt;napi_id cohabitation</title>

commit 52bd2d62ce6758d811edcbd2256eb9ea7f6a56cb upstream.

skb-&gt;sender_cpu and skb-&gt;napi_id share a common storage,
and we had various bugs about this.

We had to call skb_sender_cpu_clear() in some places to
not leave a prior skb-&gt;napi_id and fool netdev_pick_tx()

As suggested by Alexei, we could split the space so that
these errors can not happen.

0 value being reserved as the common (not initialized) value,
let's reserve [1 .. NR_CPUS] range for valid sender_cpu,
and [NR_CPUS+1 .. ~0U] for valid napi_id.

This will allow proper busy polling support over tunnels.

<title>packet: Use symmetric hash for PACKET_FANOUT_HASH.</title>

[ Upstream commit eb70db8756717b90c01ccc765fdefc4dd969fc74 ]

People who use PACKET_FANOUT_HASH want a symmetric hash, meaning that
they want packets going in both directions on a flow to hash to the
same bucket.

The core kernel SKB hash became non-symmetric when the ipv6 flow label
and other entities were incorporated into the standard flow hash order
to increase entropy.

But there are no users of PACKET_FANOUT_HASH who want an assymetric
hash, they all want a symmetric one.

Therefore, use the flow dissector to compute a flat symmetric hash
over only the protocol, addresses and ports.  This hash does not get
installed into and override the normal skb hash, so this change has
no effect whatsoever on the rest of the stack.

<title>mld, igmp: Fix reserved tailroom calculation</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 1837b2e2bcd23137766555a63867e649c0b637f0 ]

The current reserved_tailroom calculation fails to take hlen and tlen into
account.

skb:
[__hlen__|__data____________|__tlen___|__extra__]
^                                               ^
head                                            skb_end_offset

In this representation, hlen + data + tlen is the size passed to alloc_skb.
"extra" is the extra space made available in __alloc_skb because of
rounding up by kmalloc. We can reorder the representation like so:

[__hlen__|__data____________|__extra__|__tlen___]
^                                               ^
head                                            skb_end_offset

The maximum space available for ip headers and payload without
fragmentation is min(mtu, data + extra). Therefore,
reserved_tailroom
= data + extra + tlen - min(mtu, data + extra)
= skb_end_offset - hlen - min(mtu, skb_end_offset - hlen - tlen)
= skb_tailroom - min(mtu, skb_tailroom - tlen) ; after skb_reserve(hlen)

Compare the second line to the current expression:
reserved_tailroom = skb_end_offset - min(mtu, skb_end_offset)
and we can see that hlen and tlen are not taken into account.

The min() in the third line can be expanded into:
if mtu &lt; skb_tailroom - tlen:
	reserved_tailroom = skb_tailroom - mtu
else:
	reserved_tailroom = tlen

Depending on hlen, tlen, mtu and the number of multicast address records,
the current code may output skbs that have less tailroom than
dev-&gt;needed_tailroom or it may output more skbs than needed because not all
space available is used.

[ Upstream commit 9b368814b336b0a1a479135eb2815edbc00efd3c ]

We need to update the skb-&gt;csum after pulling the skb, otherwise
an unnecessary checksum (re)computation can ocure for IGMP/MLD packets
in the bridge code. Additionally this fixes the following splats for
network devices / bridge ports with support for and enabled RX checksum
offloading:

[ Upstream commit 5f74f82ea34c0da80ea0b49192bb5ea06e063593 ]

Devices may have limits on the number of fragments in an skb they support.
Current codebase uses a constant as maximum for number of fragments one
skb can hold and use.
When enabling scatter/gather and running traffic with many small messages
the codebase uses the maximum number of fragments and may thereby violate
the max for certain devices.
The patch introduces a global variable as max number of fragments.

[ Upstream commit 9207f9d45b0ad071baa128e846d7e7ed85016df3 ]

Skb_gso_segment() uses skb control block during segmentation.
This patch adds 32-bytes room for previous control block which
will be copied into all resulting segments.

This patch fixes kernel crash during fragmenting forwarded packets.
Fragmentation requires valid IP CB in skb for clearing ip options.
Also patch removes custom save/restore in ovs code, now it's redundant.
