[ Upstream commit 9b3eb54106cf6acd03f07cf0ab01c13676a226c2 ]

When CONFIG_XFRM_SUB_POLICY=y, xfrm_dst stores a copy of the flowi for
that dst. Unfortunately, the code that allocates and fills this copy
doesn't care about what type of flowi (flowi, flowi4, flowi6) gets
passed. In multiple code paths (from raw_sendmsg, from TCP when
replying to a FIN, in vxlan, geneve, and gre), the flowi that gets
passed to xfrm is actually an on-stack flowi4, so we end up reading
stuff from the stack past the end of the flowi4 struct.

Since xfrm_dst-&gt;origin isn't used anywhere following commit
ca116922afa8 ("xfrm: Eliminate "fl" and "pol" args to
xfrm_bundle_ok()."), just get rid of it.  xfrm_dst-&gt;partner isn't used
either, so get rid of that too.

[ Upstream commit 77d4b1d36926a9b8387c6b53eeba42bcaaffcea3 ]

Alexander reported various KASAN messages triggered in recent kernels

The problem is that ping sockets should not use udp_poll() in the first
place, and recent changes in UDP stack finally exposed this old bug.

<title>ipv6: reorder ip6_route_dev_notifier after ipv6_dev_notf</title>

[ Upstream commit 242d3a49a2a1a71d8eb9f953db1bcaa9d698ce00 ]

For each netns (except init_net), we initialize its null entry
in 3 places:

1) The template itself, as we use kmemdup()
2) Code around dst_init_metrics() in ip6_route_net_init()
3) ip6_route_dev_notify(), which is supposed to initialize it after
   loopback registers

Unfortunately the last one still happens in a wrong order because
we expect to initialize net-&gt;ipv6.ip6_null_entry-&gt;rt6i_idev to
net-&gt;loopback_dev's idev, thus we have to do that after we add
idev to loopback. However, this notifier has priority == 0 same as
ipv6_dev_notf, and ipv6_dev_notf is registered after
ip6_route_dev_notifier so it is called actually after
ip6_route_dev_notifier. This is similar to commit 2f460933f58e
("ipv6: initialize route null entry in addrconf_init()") which
fixes init_net.

Fix it by picking a smaller priority for ip6_route_dev_notifier.
Also, we have to release the refcnt accordingly when unregistering
loopback_dev because device exit functions are called before subsys
exit functions.

[ Upstream commit 2f460933f58eee3393aba64f0f6d14acb08d1724 ]

Andrey reported a crash on init_net.ipv6.ip6_null_entry-&gt;rt6i_idev
since it is always NULL.

This is clearly wrong, we have code to initialize it to loopback_dev,
unfortunately the order is still not correct.

loopback_dev is registered very early during boot, we lose a chance
to re-initialize it in notifier. addrconf_init() is called after
ip6_route_init(), which means we have no chance to correct it.

Fix it by moving this initialization explicitly after
ipv6_add_dev(init_net.loopback_dev) in addrconf_init().

[ Upstream commit 822c868532cae2cc1c51f4f18ab61c194d98aaf6 ]

ICMP timestamp messages and IP source route options require
timestamps to be in milliseconds modulo 24 hours from
midnight UT format.

Add inet_current_timestamp() function to support this. The function
returns the required timestamp in network byte order.

Timestamp calculation is also changed to call ktime_get_real_ts64()
which uses struct timespec64. struct timespec64 is y2038 safe.
Previously it called getnstimeofday() which uses struct timespec.
struct timespec is not y2038 safe.

[ Upstream commit bb1fceca22492109be12640d49f5ea5a544c6bb4 ]

When tcp_sendmsg() allocates a fresh and empty skb, it puts it at the
tail of the write queue using tcp_add_write_queue_tail()

Then it attempts to copy user data into this fresh skb.

If the copy fails, we undo the work and remove the fresh skb.

Unfortunately, this undo lacks the change done to tp-&gt;highest_sack and
we can leave a dangling pointer (to a freed skb)

Later, tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue() can dereference this pointer and
access freed memory. For regular kernels where memory is not unmapped,
this might cause SACK bugs because tcp_highest_sack_seq() is buggy,
returning garbage instead of tp-&gt;snd_nxt, but with various debug
features like CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, this can crash the kernel.

This bug was found by Marco Grassi thanks to syzkaller.

[ Upstream commit f719e3754ee2f7275437e61a6afd520181fdd43b ]

Jiri Bohac is reporting for a problem where the attempt
to reschedule existing connection to another real server
needs proper redirect for the conntrack used by the IPVS
connection. For example, when IPVS connection is created
to NAT-ed real server we alter the reply direction of
conntrack. If we later decide to select different real
server we can not alter again the conntrack. And if we
expire the old connection, the new connection is left
without conntrack.

So, the only way to redirect both the IPVS connection and
the Netfilter's conntrack is to drop the SYN packet that
hits existing connection, to wait for the next jiffie
to expire the old connection and its conntrack and to rely
on client's retransmission to create new connection as
usually.

Jiri Bohac provided a fix that drops all SYNs on rescheduling,
I extended his patch to do such drops only for connections
that use conntrack. Here is the original report from Jiri Bohac:

Since commit dc7b3eb900aa ("ipvs: Fix reuse connection if real server
is dead"), new connections to dead servers are redistributed
immediately to new servers.  The old connection is expired using
ip_vs_conn_expire_now() which sets the connection timer to expire
immediately.

However, before the timer callback, ip_vs_conn_expire(), is run
to clean the connection's conntrack entry, the new redistributed
connection may already be established and its conntrack removed
instead.

Fix this by dropping the first packet of the new connection
instead, like we do when the destination server is not available.
The timer will have deleted the old conntrack entry long before
the first packet of the new connection is retransmitted.

<title>bonding: fix bond_get_stats()</title>

[ Upstream commit fe30937b65354c7fec244caebbdaae68e28ca797 ]

bond_get_stats() can be called from rtnetlink (with RTNL held)
or from /proc/net/dev seq handler (with RCU held)

The logic added in commit 5f0c5f73e5ef ("bonding: make global bonding
stats more reliable") kind of assumed only one cpu could run there.

If multiple threads are reading /proc/net/dev, stats can be really
messed up after a while.

A second problem is that some fields are 32bit, so we need to properly
handle the wrap around problem.

Given that RTNL is not always held, we need to use
bond_for_each_slave_rcu().
