[ Upstream commit 40570375356c874b1578e05c1dcc3ff7c1322dbe ]

We had various bugs over the years with code
breaking the assumption that tp-&gt;snd_cwnd is greater
than zero.

Lately, syzbot reported the WARN_ON_ONCE(!tp-&gt;prior_cwnd) added
in commit 8b8a321ff72c ("tcp: fix zero cwnd in tcp_cwnd_reduction")
can trigger, and without a repro we would have to spend
considerable time finding the bug.

Instead of complaining too late, we want to catch where
and when tp-&gt;snd_cwnd is set to an illegal value.

[ Upstream commit 9a3dedcf18096e8f7f22b8777d78c4acfdea1651 ]

Fix the decision on when to generate an IDLE ACK by keeping a count of the
number of packets we've received, but not yet soft-ACK'd, and the number of
packets we've processed, but not yet hard-ACK'd, rather than trying to keep
track of which DATA sequence numbers correspond to those points.

We then generate an ACK when either counter exceeds 2.  The counters are
both cleared when we transcribe the information into any sort of ACK packet
for transmission.  IDLE and DELAY ACKs are skipped if both counters are 0
(ie. no change).

commit 14c174633f349cb41ea90c2c0aaddac157012f74 upstream.

These explicit tracepoints aren't really used and show sign of aging.
It's work to keep these up to date, and before I attempted to keep them
up to date, they weren't up to date, which indicates that they're not
really used. These days there are better ways of introspecting anyway.

commit 04ec96b768c9dd43946b047c3da60dcc66431370 upstream.

We've been using a flurry of int, unsigned int, size_t, and ssize_t.
Let's unify all of this into size_t where it makes sense, as it does in
most places, and leave ssize_t for return values with possible errors.

In addition, keeping with the convention of other functions in this
file, functions that are dealing with raw bytes now take void *
consistently instead of a mix of that and u8 *, because much of the time
we're actually passing some other structure that is then interpreted as
bytes by the function.

We also take the opportunity to fix the outdated and incorrect comment
in get_random_bytes_arch().

commit 9c07f57869e90140080cfc282cc628d123e27704 upstream.

Our pool is 256 bits, and we only ever use all of it or don't use it at
all, which is decided by whether or not it has at least 128 bits in it.
So we can drastically simplify the accounting and cmpxchg loop to do
exactly this.  While we're at it, we move the minimum bit size into a
constant so it can be shared between the two places where it matters.

The reason we want any of this is for the case in which an attacker has
compromised the current state, and then bruteforces small amounts of
entropy added to it. By demanding a particular minimum amount of entropy
be present before reseeding, we make that bruteforcing difficult.

Note that this rationale no longer includes anything about /dev/random
blocking at the right moment, since /dev/random no longer blocks (except
for at ~boot), but rather uses the crng. In a former life, /dev/random
was different and therefore required a more nuanced account(), but this
is no longer.

Behaviorally, nothing changes here. This is just a simplification of
the code.

[ Upstream commit 4d5004451ab2218eab94a30e1841462c9316ba19 ]

Fix a NULL deref crash that occurs when an svc_rqst is deferred
while the sunrpc tracing subsystem is enabled. svc_revisit() sets
dr-&gt;xprt to NULL, so it can't be relied upon in the tracepoint to
provide the remote's address.

Unfortunately we can't revert the "svc_deferred_class" hunk in
commit ece200ddd54b ("sunrpc: Save remote presentation address in
svc_xprt for trace events") because there is now a specific check
of event format specifiers for unsafe dereferences. The warning
that check emits is:

  event svc_defer_recv has unsafe dereference of argument 1

A "%pISpc" format specifier with a "struct sockaddr *" is indeed
flagged by this check.

Instead, take the brute-force approach used by the svcrdma_qp_error
tracepoint. Convert the dr::addr field into a presentation address
in the TP_fast_assign() arm of the trace event, and store that as
a string. This fix can be backported to -stable kernels.

In the meantime, commit c6ced22997ad ("tracing: Update print fmt
check to handle new __get_sockaddr() macro") is now in v5.18, so
this wonky fix can be replaced with __sockaddr() and friends
properly during the v5.19 merge window.

commit f00432063db1a0db484e85193eccc6845435b80e upstream.

We must ensure that all sockets are closed before we call xprt_free()
and release the reference to the net namespace. The problem is that
calling fput() will defer closing the socket until delayed_fput() gets
called.
Let's fix the situation by allowing rpciod and the transport teardown
code (which runs on the system wq) to call __fput_sync(), and directly
close the socket.

commit 4a7f62f91933c8ae5308f9127fd8ea48188b6bc3 upstream.

The rxrpc_call struct has a timer used to handle various timed events
relating to a call.  This timer can get started from the packet input
routines that are run in softirq mode with just the RCU read lock held.
Unfortunately, because only the RCU read lock is held - and neither ref or
other lock is taken - the call can start getting destroyed at the same time
a packet comes in addressed to that call.  This causes the timer - which
was already stopped - to get restarted.  Later, the timer dispatch code may
then oops if the timer got deallocated first.

Fix this by trying to take a ref on the rxrpc_call struct and, if
successful, passing that ref along to the timer.  If the timer was already
running, the ref is discarded.

The timer completion routine can then pass the ref along to the call's work
item when it queues it.  If the timer or work item where already
queued/running, the extra ref is discarded.

commit 7af1974af0a9ba8a8ed2e3e947d87dd4d9a78d27 upstream.

ftrace's __print_symbolic() requires that any enum values used in the
symbol to string translation table be wrapped in a TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM
so that the enum value can be decoded from the ftrace ring buffer by
user space tooling.

This patch also fixes few other problems found in this trace point.
e.g. dereferencing structures in TP_printk which should not be done
at any cost.

Also to avoid checkpatch warnings, this patch removes those
whitespaces/tab stops issues.
