commit a44b7651489f26271ac784b70895e8a85d0cebf4 upstream.

An SCTP endpoint can start an association through a path and tear it
down over another one. That means the initial path will not see the
shutdown sequence, and the conntrack entry will remain in ESTABLISHED
state for 5 days.

By merging the HEARTBEAT_ACKED and ESTABLISHED states into one
ESTABLISHED state, there remains no difference between a primary or
secondary path. The timeout for the merged ESTABLISHED state is set to
210 seconds (hb_interval * max_path_retrans + rto_max). So, even if a
path doesn't see the shutdown sequence, it will expire in a reasonable
amount of time.

With this change in place, there is now more than one state from which
we can transition to ESTABLISHED, COOKIE_ECHOED and HEARTBEAT_SENT, so
handle the setting of ASSURED bit whenever a state change has happened
and the new state is ESTABLISHED. Removed the check for dir==REPLY since
the transition to ESTABLISHED can happen only in the reply direction.

When the SPDX-License-Identifier tag has been added, the corresponding
license text has not been removed.

Remove it now.

Also, in xt_connmark.h, move the copyright text at the top of the file
which is a much more common pattern.

<title>treewide: uapi: Replace zero-length arrays with flexible-array members</title>

<id>94dfc73e7cf4a31da66b8843f0b9283ddd6b8381</id>
<content type='text'>
There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare
having a dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure.
Kernel code should always use “flexible array members”[1] for these
cases. The older style of one-element or zero-length arrays should
no longer be used[2].

This code was transformed with the help of Coccinelle:
(linux-5.19-rc2$ spatch --jobs $(getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN) --sp-file script.cocci --include-headers --dir . &gt; output.patch)

@@
identifier S, member, array;
type T1, T2;
@@

struct S {
  ...
  T1 member;
  T2 array[
- 0
  ];
};

-fstrict-flex-arrays=3 is coming and we need to land these changes
to prevent issues like these in the short future:

../fs/minix/dir.c:337:3: warning: 'strcpy' will always overflow; destination buffer has size 0,
but the source string has length 2 (including NUL byte) [-Wfortify-source]
		strcpy(de3-&gt;name, ".");
		^

Since these are all [0] to [] changes, the risk to UAPI is nearly zero. If
this breaks anything, we can use a union with a new member name.

Commit e2be04c7f995 ("License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to
uapi header files with a license") added the correct SPDX identifier to
include/uapi/linux/netfilter/xt_IDLETIMER.h.

A subsequent commit removed it for no reason and reintroduced the UAPI
license incorrectness as the file is now missing the UAPI exception
again.

Add it back and remove the GPLv2 boilerplate while at it.

<content type='text'>
When userspace, e.g. conntrackd, inserts an entry with a specified helper,
its possible that the helper is lost immediately after its added:

ctnetlink_create_conntrack
  -&gt; nf_ct_helper_ext_add + assign helper
    -&gt; ctnetlink_setup_nat
      -&gt; ctnetlink_parse_nat_setup
         -&gt; parse_nat_setup -&gt; nfnetlink_parse_nat_setup
	                       -&gt; nf_nat_setup_info
                                 -&gt; nf_conntrack_alter_reply
                                   -&gt; __nf_ct_try_assign_helper

... and __nf_ct_try_assign_helper will zero the helper again.

Set IPS_HELPER bit to bypass auto-assign logic, its unwanted, just like
when helper is assigned via ruleset.

Dropped old 'not strictly necessary' comment, it referred to use of
rcu_assign_pointer() before it got replaced by RCU_INIT_POINTER().

NB: Fixes tag intentionally incorrect, this extends the referenced commit,
but this change won't build without IPS_HELPER introduced there.

Allow to match and mangle on inner headers / payload data after the
transport header. There is a new field in the pktinfo structure that
stores the inner header offset which is calculated only when requested.
Only TCP and UDP supported at this stage.

Generalize NFT_META_IIFTYPE to NFT_META_IFTYPE which allows you to match
on the interface type of the skb-&gt;dev field. This field is used by the
netdev family to add an implicit dependency to skip non-ethernet packets
when matching on layer 3 and 4 TCP/IP header fields.

For backward compatibility, add the NFT_META_IIFTYPE alias to
NFT_META_IFTYPE.

Add __NFT_META_IIFTYPE, to be used by userspace in the future to match
specifically on the iiftype.
