<title>sock: make cookie generation global instead of per netns</title>

Generating and retrieving socket cookies are a useful feature that is
exposed to BPF for various program types through bpf_get_socket_cookie()
helper.

The fact that the cookie counter is per netns is quite a limitation
for BPF in practice in particular for programs in host namespace that
use socket cookies as part of a map lookup key since they will be
causing socket cookie collisions e.g. when attached to BPF cgroup hooks
or cls_bpf on tc egress in host namespace handling container traffic
from veth or ipvlan devices with peer in different netns. Change the
counter to be global instead.

Socket cookie consumers must assume the value as opqaue in any case.
Not every socket must have a cookie generated and knowledge of the
counter value itself does not provide much value either way hence
conversion to global is fine.

Create key domain tags for network namespaces and make it possible to
automatically tag keys that are used by networked services (e.g. AF_RXRPC,
AFS, DNS) with the default network namespace if not set by the caller.

This allows keys with the same description but in different namespaces to
coexist within a keyring.

<title>netns: add pre_exit method to struct pernet_operations</title>

<content type='text'>
Current struct pernet_operations exit() handlers are highly
discouraged to call synchronize_rcu().

There are cases where we need them, and exit_batch() does
not help the common case where a single netns is dismantled.

This patch leverages the existing synchronize_rcu() call
in cleanup_net()

Calling optional -&gt;pre_exit() method before -&gt;exit() or
-&gt;exit_batch() allows to benefit from a single synchronize_rcu()
call.

Note that the synchronize_rcu() calls added in this patch
are only in error paths or slow paths.

Tested:

$ time for i in {1..1000}; do unshare -n /bin/false;done

Barebones start point for nexthops. Implementation for RTM commands,
notifications, management of rbtree for holding nexthops by id, and
kernel side data structures for nexthops and nexthop config.

Nexthops are maintained in an rbtree sorted by id. Similar to routes,
nexthops are configured per namespace using netns_nexthop struct added
to struct net.

Nexthop notifications are sent when a nexthop is added or deleted,
but NOT if the delete is due to a device event or network namespace
teardown (which also involves device events). Applications are
expected to use the device down event to flush nexthops and any
routes used by the nexthops.

<title>netns: provide pure entropy for net_hash_mix()</title>

net_hash_mix() currently uses kernel address of a struct net,
and is used in many places that could be used to reveal this
address to a patient attacker, thus defeating KASLR, for
the typical case (initial net namespace, &amp;init_net is
not dynamically allocated)

I believe the original implementation tried to avoid spending
too many cycles in this function, but security comes first.

Also provide entropy regardless of CONFIG_NET_NS.

by the sock_diag interface for querying sockets from userspace.

Adds a hook for programs of type BPF_PROG_TYPE_FLOW_DISSECTOR and
attach type BPF_FLOW_DISSECTOR that is executed in the flow dissector
path. The BPF program is per-network namespace.

Make net_ns_get_ownership() reusable by networking code outside of core.
This is useful, for example, to allow bridge related sysfs files to be
owned by container root.

Add a function comment since this is a potentially dangerous function to
use given the way that kobject_get_ownership() works by initializing uid
and gid before calling .get_ownership().
