[ Upstream commit 123b99619cca94bdca0bf7bde9abe28f0a0dfe06 ]

Set timeout and garbage collection interval updates are ignored on
updates. Add transaction to update global set element timeout and
garbage collection interval.

Add the following fields to the set description:

- key type
- data type
- object type
- policy
- gc_int: garbage collection interval)
- timeout: element timeout

This prepares for stricter set type checks on updates in a follow up
patch.

__nf_ct_try_assign_helper() remains in place but it now requires a
template to configure the helper.

A toggle to disable automatic helper assignment was added by:

  a9006892643a ("netfilter: nf_ct_helper: allow to disable automatic helper assignment")

in 2012 to address the issues described in "Secure use of iptables and
connection tracking helpers". Automatic conntrack helper assignment was
disabled by:

  3bb398d925ec ("netfilter: nf_ct_helper: disable automatic helper assignment")

back in 2016.

This patch removes the sysctl and modparam toggles, users now have to
rely on explicit conntrack helper configuration via ruleset.

Update tools/testing/selftests/netfilter/nft_conntrack_helper.sh to
check that auto-assignment does not happen anymore.

<title>netfilter: flowtable: fix stuck flows on cleanup due to pending work</title>

<content type='text'>
To clear the flow table on flow table free, the following sequence
normally happens in order:

  1) gc_step work is stopped to disable any further stats/del requests.
  2) All flow table entries are set to teardown state.
  3) Run gc_step which will queue HW del work for each flow table entry.
  4) Waiting for the above del work to finish (flush).
  5) Run gc_step again, deleting all entries from the flow table.
  6) Flow table is freed.

But if a flow table entry already has pending HW stats or HW add work
step 3 will not queue HW del work (it will be skipped), step 4 will wait
for the pending add/stats to finish, and step 5 will queue HW del work
which might execute after freeing of the flow table.

To fix the above, this patch flushes the pending work, then it sets the
teardown flag to all flows in the flowtable and it forces a garbage
collector run to queue work to remove the flows from hardware, then it
flushes this new pending work and (finally) it forces another garbage
collector run to remove the entry from the software flowtable.

Use it to disallow jump to implicit chain from set element, only jump

<content type='text'>
Instead of parsing the data and then validate that type and length are
correct, pass a description of the expected data so it can be validated
upfront before parsing it to bail out earlier.

This patch adds a new .size field to specify the maximum size of the
data area. The .len field is optional and it is used as an input/output
field, it provides the specific length of the expected data in the input
path. If then .len field is not specified, then obtained length from the
netlink attribute is stored. This is required by cmp, bitwise, range and
immediate, which provide no netlink attribute that describes the data
length. The immediate expression uses the destination register type to
infer the expected data type.

Relying on opencoded validation of the expected data might lead to
subtle bugs as described in 7e6bc1f6cabc ("netfilter: nf_tables:
stricter validation of element data").

Instead of parsing the data and then validate that type and length are
correct, pass a description of the expected data so it can be validated
upfront before parsing it to bail out earlier.

This patch adds a new .size field to specify the maximum size of the
data area. The .len field is optional and it is used as an input/output
field, it provides the specific length of the expected data in the input
path. If then .len field is not specified, then obtained length from the
netlink attribute is stored. This is required by cmp, bitwise, range and
immediate, which provide no netlink attribute that describes the data
length. The immediate expression uses the destination register type to
infer the expected data type.

Relying on opencoded validation of the expected data might lead to
subtle bugs as described in 7e6bc1f6cabc ("netfilter: nf_tables:

<title>netfilter: nf_tables: validate variable length element extension</title>

<id>34aae2c2fb1e3d88a5aeee16715cb6bf0336cdce</id>
<content type='text'>
Update template to validate variable length extensions. This patch adds
a new .ext_len[id] field to the template to store the expected extension
length. This is used to sanity check the initialization of the variable
length extension.

Use PTR_ERR() in nft_set_elem_init() to report errors since, after this
update, there are two reason why this might fail, either because of
ENOMEM or insufficient room in the extension field (EINVAL).

Kernels up until 7e6bc1f6cabc ("netfilter: nf_tables: stricter
validation of element data") allowed to copy more data to the extension
than was allocated. This ext_len field allows to validate if the
destination has the correct size as additional check.

We've added 73 non-merge commits during the last 12 day(s) which contain
a total of 88 files changed, 3458 insertions(+), 860 deletions(-).

The main changes are:

1) Implement BPF trampoline for arm64 JIT, from Xu Kuohai.

2) Add ksyscall/kretsyscall section support to libbpf to simplify tracing kernel
   syscalls through kprobe mechanism, from Andrii Nakryiko.

3) Allow for livepatch (KLP) and BPF trampolines to attach to the same kernel
   function, from Song Liu &amp; Jiri Olsa.

4) Add new kfunc infrastructure for netfilter's CT e.g. to insert and change
   entries, from Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi &amp; Lorenzo Bianconi.

5) Add a ksym BPF iterator to allow for more flexible and efficient interactions
   with kernel symbols, from Alan Maguire.

6) Bug fixes in libbpf e.g. for uprobe binary path resolution, from Dan Carpenter.

7) Fix BPF subprog function names in stack traces, from Alexei Starovoitov.

8) libbpf support for writing custom perf event readers, from Jon Doron.

9) Switch to use SPDX tag for BPF helper man page, from Alejandro Colomar.

10) Fix xsk send-only sockets when in busy poll mode, from Maciej Fijalkowski.

11) Reparent BPF maps and their charging on memcg offlining, from Roman Gushchin.

12) Multiple follow-up fixes around BPF lsm cgroup infra, from Stanislav Fomichev.

13) Use bootstrap version of bpftool where possible to speed up builds, from Pu Lehui.

14) Cleanup BPF verifier's check_func_arg() handling, from Joanne Koong.

15) Make non-prealloced BPF map allocations low priority to play better with
    memcg limits, from Yafang Shao.

16) Fix BPF test runner to reject zero-length data for skbs, from Zhengchao Shao.

17) Various smaller cleanups and improvements all over the place.
