[ Upstream commit df453700e8d81b1bdafdf684365ee2b9431fb702 ]

According to Amit Klein and Benny Pinkas, IP ID generation is too weak
and might be used by attackers.

Even with recent net_hash_mix() fix (netns: provide pure entropy for net_hash_mix())
having 64bit key and Jenkins hash is risky.

It is time to switch to siphash and its 128bit keys.

<title>net: provide a sysctl raw_l3mdev_accept for raw socket lookup with VRFs</title>

<id>6897445fb194c8ad046df4a13e1ee9f080a5a21e</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a sysctl raw_l3mdev_accept to control raw socket lookup in a manner
similar to use of tcp_l3mdev_accept for stream and of udp_l3mdev_accept
for datagram sockets. Have this default to enabled for reasons of
backwards compatibility. This is so as to specify the output device
with cmsg and IP_PKTINFO, but using a socket not bound to the
corresponding VRF. This allows e.g. older ping implementations to be
run with specifying the device but without executing it in the VRF.
If the option is disabled, packets received in a VRF context are only
handled by a raw socket bound to the VRF, and correspondingly packets
in the default VRF are only handled by a socket not bound to any VRF.

<title>net: ipv4: Control SKB reprioritization after forwarding</title>

<id>432e05d328921c68c35bfdeff7d7b7400b8e3d1a</id>
<content type='text'>
After IPv4 packets are forwarded, the priority of the corresponding SKB
is updated according to the TOS field of IPv4 header. This overrides any
prioritization done earlier by e.g. an skbedit action or ingress-qos-map
defined at a vlan device.

Such overriding may not always be desirable. Even if the packet ends up
being routed, which implies this is an L3 network node, an administrator
may wish to preserve whatever prioritization was done earlier on in the
pipeline.

Therefore introduce a sysctl that controls this behavior. Keep the
default value at 1 to maintain backward-compatible behavior.

This per netns sysctl allows for TCP SACK compression fine-tuning.

This limits number of SACK that can be compressed.
Using 0 disables SACK compression.

Dissect flow in fwd path if fib rules require it. Controlled by
a flag to avoid penatly for the common case. Flag is set when fib
rules with sport, dport and proto match that require flow dissect
are installed. Also passes the dissected hash keys to the multipath
hash function when applicable to avoid dissecting the flow again.
icmp packets will continue to use inner header for hash
calculations (Thanks to Nikolay Aleksandrov for some review here).

Make default TCP default congestion control to a per namespace
value. This changes default congestion control to a pointer to congestion ops
(rather than implicit as first element of available lsit).

The congestion control setting of new namespaces is inherited
from the current setting of the root namespace.
