commit 0bb2f7a1ad1f11d861f58e5ee5051c8974ff9569 upstream.

When I ran the repro [0] and waited a few seconds, I observed two
LOCKDEP splats: a warning immediately followed by a null-ptr-deref. [1]

Reproduction Steps:

  1) Mount CIFS
  2) Add an iptables rule to drop incoming FIN packets for CIFS
  3) Unmount CIFS
  4) Unload the CIFS module
  5) Remove the iptables rule

At step 3), the CIFS module calls sock_release() for the underlying
TCP socket, and it returns quickly.  However, the socket remains in
FIN_WAIT_1 because incoming FIN packets are dropped.

At this point, the module's refcnt is 0 while the socket is still
alive, so the following rmmod command succeeds.

  # ss -tan
  State      Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address:Port  Peer Address:Port
  FIN-WAIT-1 0      477        10.0.2.15:51062   10.0.0.137:445

  # lsmod | grep cifs
  cifs                 1159168  0

This highlights a discrepancy between the lifetime of the CIFS module
and the underlying TCP socket.  Even after CIFS calls sock_release()
and it returns, the TCP socket does not die immediately in order to
close the connection gracefully.

While this is generally fine, it causes an issue with LOCKDEP because
CIFS assigns a different lock class to the TCP socket's sk-&gt;sk_lock
using sock_lock_init_class_and_name().

Once an incoming packet is processed for the socket or a timer fires,
sk-&gt;sk_lock is acquired.

Then, LOCKDEP checks the lock context in check_wait_context(), where
hlock_class() is called to retrieve the lock class.  However, since
the module has already been unloaded, hlock_class() logs a warning
and returns NULL, triggering the null-ptr-deref.

If LOCKDEP is enabled, we must ensure that a module calling
sock_lock_init_class_and_name() (CIFS, NFS, etc) cannot be unloaded
while such a socket is still alive to prevent this issue.

Let's hold the module reference in sock_lock_init_class_and_name()
and release it when the socket is freed in sk_prot_free().

Note that sock_lock_init() clears sk-&gt;sk_owner for svc_create_socket()
that calls sock_lock_init_class_and_name() for a listening socket,
which clones a socket by sk_clone_lock() without GFP_ZERO.

  2) Add an iptables rule to drop incoming FIN packets for CIFS
  3) Unmount CIFS

FIN_WAIT_1 because incoming FIN packets are dropped.

At this point, the module's refcnt is 0 while the socket is still

  # lsmod | grep cifs

commit 1dae9f1187189bc09ff6d25ca97ead711f7e26f9 upstream.

The kernel may crash when deleting a genetlink family if there are still
listeners for that family:

Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
  ...
  NIP [c000000000c080bc] netlink_update_socket_mc+0x3c/0xc0
  LR [c000000000c0f764] __netlink_clear_multicast_users+0x74/0xc0
  Call Trace:
__netlink_clear_multicast_users+0x74/0xc0
genl_unregister_family+0xd4/0x2d0

Change the unsafe loop on the list to a safe one, because inside the
loop there is an element removal from this list.

<title>net: fix __dst_negative_advice() race</title>

commit 92f1655aa2b2294d0b49925f3b875a634bd3b59e upstream.

__dst_negative_advice() does not enforce proper RCU rules when
sk-&gt;dst_cache must be cleared, leading to possible UAF.

RCU rules are that we must first clear sk-&gt;sk_dst_cache,
then call dst_release(old_dst).

Note that sk_dst_reset(sk) is implementing this protocol correctly,
while __dst_negative_advice() uses the wrong order.

Given that ip6_negative_advice() has special logic
against RTF_CACHE, this means each of the three -&gt;negative_advice()
existing methods must perform the sk_dst_reset() themselves.

Note the check against NULL dst is centralized in
__dst_negative_advice(), there is no need to duplicate
it in various callbacks.

Many thanks to Clement Lecigne for tracking this issue.

This old bug became visible after the blamed commit, using UDP sockets.

<title>tcp: properly terminate timers for kernel sockets</title>

[ Upstream commit 151c9c724d05d5b0dd8acd3e11cb69ef1f2dbada ]

We had various syzbot reports about tcp timers firing after
the corresponding netns has been dismantled.

Fortunately Josef Bacik could trigger the issue more often,
and could test a patch I wrote two years ago.

When TCP sockets are closed, we call inet_csk_clear_xmit_timers()
to 'stop' the timers.

inet_csk_clear_xmit_timers() can be called from any context,
including when socket lock is held.
This is the reason it uses sk_stop_timer(), aka del_timer().
This means that ongoing timers might finish much later.

For user sockets, this is fine because each running timer
holds a reference on the socket, and the user socket holds
a reference on the netns.

For kernel sockets, we risk that the netns is freed before
timer can complete, because kernel sockets do not hold
reference on the netns.

This patch adds inet_csk_clear_xmit_timers_sync() function
that using sk_stop_timer_sync() to make sure all timers
are terminated before the kernel socket is released.
Modules using kernel sockets close them in their netns exit()
handler.

Also add sock_not_owned_by_me() helper to get LOCKDEP
support : inet_csk_clear_xmit_timers_sync() must not be called
while socket lock is held.

It is very possible we can revert in the future commit
3a58f13a881e ("net: rds: acquire refcount on TCP sockets")
which attempted to solve the issue in rds only.
(net/smc/af_smc.c and net/mptcp/subflow.c have similar code)

We probably can remove the check_net() tests from
tcp_out_of_resources() and __tcp_close() in the future.

*prot-&gt;memory_pressure is read/writen locklessly, we need
to add proper annotations.

A recent commit added a new race, it is time to audit all accesses.

Fixes: 2d0c88e84e48 ("sock: Fix misuse of sk_under_memory_pressure()")
Fixes: 4d93df0abd50 ("[SCTP]: Rewrite of sctp buffer management code")

[ Upstream commit 2d0c88e84e483982067a82073f6125490ddf3614 ]

The status of global socket memory pressure is updated when:

  a) __sk_mem_raise_allocated():

	enter: sk_memory_allocated(sk) &gt;  sysctl_mem[1]
	leave: sk_memory_allocated(sk) &lt;= sysctl_mem[0]

  b) __sk_mem_reduce_allocated():

	leave: sk_under_memory_pressure(sk) &amp;&amp;
		sk_memory_allocated(sk) &lt; sysctl_mem[0]

So the conditions of leaving global pressure are inconstant, which
may lead to the situation that one pressured net-memcg prevents the
global pressure from being cleared when there is indeed no global
pressure, thus the global constrains are still in effect unexpectedly
on the other sockets.

This patch fixes this by ignoring the net-memcg's pressure when
deciding whether should leave global memory pressure.

Fixes: e1aab161e013 ("socket: initial cgroup code.")
