commit 5027d54a9c30bc7ec808360378e2b4753f053f25 upstream.

accept_ra_min_rtr_lft only considered the lifetime of the default route
and discarded entire RAs accordingly.

This change renames accept_ra_min_rtr_lft to accept_ra_min_lft, and
applies the value to individual RA sections; in particular, router
lifetime, PIO preferred lifetime, and RIO lifetime. If any of those
lifetimes are lower than the configured value, the specific RA section
is ignored.

In order for the sysctl to be useful to Android, it should really apply
to all lifetimes in the RA, since that is what determines the minimum
frequency at which RAs must be processed by the kernel. Android uses
hardware offloads to drop RAs for a fraction of the minimum of all
lifetimes present in the RA (some networks have very frequent RAs (5s)
with high lifetimes (2h)). Despite this, we have encountered networks
that set the router lifetime to 30s which results in very frequent CPU
wakeups. Instead of disabling IPv6 (and dropping IPv6 ethertype in the
WiFi firmware) entirely on such networks, it seems better to ignore the
misconfigured routers while still processing RAs from other IPv6 routers
on the same network (i.e. to support IoT applications).

The previous implementation dropped the entire RA based on router
lifetime. This turned out to be hard to expand to the other lifetimes
present in the RA in a consistent manner; dropping the entire RA based
on RIO/PIO lifetimes would essentially require parsing the whole thing
twice.

commit 1671bcfd76fdc0b9e65153cf759153083755fe4c upstream.

This change adds a new sysctl accept_ra_min_rtr_lft to specify the
minimum acceptable router lifetime in an RA. If the received RA router
lifetime is less than the configured value (and not 0), the RA is
ignored.
This is useful for mobile devices, whose battery life can be impacted
by networks that configure RAs with a short lifetime. On such networks,
the device should never gain IPv6 provisioning and should attempt to
drop RAs via hardware offload, if available.

Commit 151e887d8ff9 ("veth: Fixing transmit return status for dropped
packets") exposed the fact that bpf_clone_redirect is capable of
returning raw NET_XMIT_XXX return codes.

This is in the conflict with its UAPI doc which says the following:
"0 on success, or a negative error in case of failure."

Update the UAPI to reflect the fact that bpf_clone_redirect can
return positive error numbers, but don't explicitly define
their meaning.

[ Upstream commit a7ed3465daa240bdf01a5420f64336fee879c09d ]

When compiling with gcc 13 and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y, the following
warning appears:

In function ‘fortify_memcpy_chk’,
    inlined from ‘size_entry_mwt’ at net/bridge/netfilter/ebtables.c:2118:2:
./include/linux/fortify-string.h:592:25: error: call to ‘__read_overflow2_field’

      |                         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The compiler is complaining:

memcpy(&amp;offsets[1], &amp;entry-&gt;watchers_offset,
                       sizeof(offsets) - sizeof(offsets[0]));

where memcpy reads beyong &amp;entry-&gt;watchers_offset to copy
{watchers,target,next}_offset altogether into offsets[]. Silence the
warning by wrapping these three up via struct_group().

commit e910c8e3aa02dc456e2f4c32cb479523c326b534 upstream.

Commit df8fc4e934c1 ("kbuild: Enable -fstrict-flex-arrays=3") introduced a warning
for the autofs_dev_ioctl structure:

In function 'check_name',
    inlined from 'validate_dev_ioctl' at fs/autofs/dev-ioctl.c:131:9,
    inlined from '_autofs_dev_ioctl' at fs/autofs/dev-ioctl.c:624:8:
fs/autofs/dev-ioctl.c:33:14: error: 'strchr' reading 1 or more bytes from a region of size 0 [-Werror=stringop-overread]
   33 |         if (!strchr(name, '/'))
      |              ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In file included from include/linux/auto_dev-ioctl.h:10,
                 from fs/autofs/autofs_i.h:10,
                 from fs/autofs/dev-ioctl.c:14:
include/uapi/linux/auto_dev-ioctl.h: In function '_autofs_dev_ioctl':

  112 |         char path[0];
      |              ^~~~

This is easily fixed by changing the gnu 0-length array into a c99
flexible array. Since this is a uapi structure, we have to be careful
about possible regressions but this one should be fine as they are
equivalent here. While it would break building with ancient gcc versions
that predate c99, it helps building with --std=c99 and -Wpedantic builds
in user space, as well as non-gnu compilers. This means we probably
also want it fixed in stable kernels.

[ Upstream commit 26ae58f65e64fa7ba61d64bae752e59e08380c6a ]

VIDIOC_ENUMINPUT documentation describes the tuner field of
struct v4l2_input as index:

Documentation/userspace-api/media/v4l/vidioc-enuminput.rst
"
* - __u32
  - ``tuner``
  - Capture devices can have zero or more tuners (RF demodulators).
    When the ``type`` is set to ``V4L2_INPUT_TYPE_TUNER`` this is an
    RF connector and this field identifies the tuner. It corresponds
    to struct :c:type:`v4l2_tuner` field ``index``. For
    details on tuners see :ref:`tuner`.
"

Drivers I could find also use the 'tuner' field as an index, e.g.:
drivers/media/pci/bt8xx/bttv-driver.c bttv_enum_input()
drivers/media/usb/go7007/go7007-v4l2.c vidioc_enum_input()

However, the UAPI comment claims this field is 'enum v4l2_tuner_type':
include/uapi/linux/videodev2.h

This field being 'enum v4l2_tuner_type' is unlikely as it seems to be
never used that way in drivers, and documentation confirms it. It seem
this comment got in accidentally in the commit which this patch fixes.
Fix the UAPI comment to stop confusion.

This was pointed out by Dmitry while reviewing VIDIOC_ENUMINPUT
support for strace.

<title>block: change all __u32 annotations to __be32 in affs_hardblocks.h</title>

commit 95a55437dc49fb3342c82e61f5472a71c63d9ed0 upstream.

The Amiga partition parser module uses signed int for partition sector
address and count, which will overflow for disks larger than 1 TB.

Use u64 as type for sector address and size to allow using disks up to
2 TB without LBD support, and disks larger than 2 TB with LBD. The RBD
format allows to specify disk sizes up to 2^128 bytes (though native
OS limitations reduce this somewhat, to max 2^68 bytes), so check for
u64 overflow carefully to protect against overflowing sector_t.

This bug was reported originally in 2012, and the fix was created by
the RDB author, Joanne Dow &lt;jdow@earthlink.net&gt;. A patch had been
discussed and reviewed on linux-m68k at that time but never officially
submitted (now resubmitted as patch 1 of this series).

Patch 3 (this series) adds additional error checking and warning
messages. One of the error checks now makes use of the previously
unused rdb_CylBlocks field, which causes a 'sparse' warning
(cast to restricted __be32).

Annotate all 32 bit fields in affs_hardblocks.h as __be32, as the
on-disk format of RDB and partition blocks is always big endian.

<title>net: ethtool: correct MAX attribute value for stats</title>

[ Upstream commit 52f79609c0c5b25fddb88e85f25ce08aa7e3fb42 ]

When compiling YNL generated code compiler complains about
array-initializer-out-of-bounds. Turns out the MAX value
for STATS_GRP uses the value for STATS.

This may lead to random corruptions in user space (kernel
itself doesn't use this value as it never parses stats).
