commit aff09ce303f83bd370772349238482ae422a2341 upstream.

Currently bridge can silently drop ipv4 fragments.
If node have loaded nf_defrag_ipv4 module but have no nf_conntrack_ipv4,
br_nf_pre_routing defragments incoming ipv4 fragments
but nfct check in br_nf_dev_queue_xmit does not allow re-fragment combined
packet back, and therefore it is dropped in br_dev_queue_push_xmit without
incrementing of any failcounters

It seems the only way to hit the ip_fragment code in the bridge xmit
path is to have a fragment list whose reassembled fragments go over
the mtu. This only happens if nf_defrag is enabled. Thanks to
Florian Westphal for providing feedback to clarify this.

Defragmentation ipv4 is required not only in conntracks but at least in
TPROXY target and socket match, therefore #ifdef is changed from
NF_CONNTRACK_IPV4 to NF_DEFRAG_IPV4

[ Upstream commit 5ebc784625ea68a9570d1f70557e7932988cd1b4 ]

Since the mdb add/del code was introduced there have been 2 br_mdb_notify
calls when doing br_mdb_add() resulting in 2 notifications on each add.

Example:
 Command: bridge mdb add dev br0 port eth1 grp 239.0.0.1 permanent
 Before patch:
 root@debian:~# bridge monitor all
 [MDB]dev br0 port eth1 grp 239.0.0.1 permanent
 [MDB]dev br0 port eth1 grp 239.0.0.1 permanent

 After patch:

[ Upstream commit f1158b74e54f2e2462ba5e2f45a118246d9d5b43 ]

Since commit b0e9a30dd669 ("bridge: Add vlan id to multicast groups")
there's a check in br_ip_equal() for a matching vlan id, but the mdb
functions were not modified to use (or at least zero it) so when an
entry was added it would have a garbage vlan id (from the local br_ip
variable in __br_mdb_add/del) and this would prevent it from being
matched and also deleted. So zero out the whole local ip var to protect
ourselves from future changes and also to fix the current bug, since
there's no vlan id support in the mdb uapi - use always vlan id 0.
Example before patch:
root@debian:~# bridge mdb add dev br0 port eth1 grp 239.0.0.1 permanent
root@debian:~# bridge mdb
dev br0 port eth1 grp 239.0.0.1 permanent
root@debian:~# bridge mdb del dev br0 port eth1 grp 239.0.0.1 permanent
RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument

After the -&gt;set() spinlocks were removed br_stp_set_bridge_priority
was left running without any protection when used via sysfs. It can
race with port add/del and could result in use-after-free cases and
corrupted lists. Tested by running port add/del in a loop with stp
enabled while setting priority in a loop, crashes are easily
reproducible.
The spinlocks around sysfs -&gt;set() were removed in commit:
14f98f258f19 ("bridge: range check STP parameters")
There's also a race condition in the netlink priority support that is
fixed by this change, but it was introduced recently and the fixes tag
covers it, just in case it's needed the commit is:

[ Upstream commit 1a040eaca1a22f8da8285ceda6b5e4a2cb704867 ]

Since the addition of sysfs multicast router support if one set
multicast_router to "2" more than once, then the port would be added to
the hlist every time and could end up linking to itself and thus causing an
endless loop for rlist walkers.
So to reproduce just do:
echo 2 &gt; multicast_router; echo 2 &gt; multicast_router;
in a bridge port and let some igmp traffic flow, for me it hangs up
in br_multicast_flood().
Fix this by adding a check in br_multicast_add_router() if the port is
already linked.
The reason this didn't happen before the addition of multicast_router
sysfs entries is because there's a !hlist_unhashed check that prevents
it.

[ Upstream commit 47cc84ce0c2fe75c99ea5963c4b5704dd78ead54 ]

When more than a multicast address is present in a MLDv2 report, all but
the first address is ignored, because the code breaks out of the loop if
there has not been an error adding that address.

This has caused failures when two guests connected through the bridge
tried to communicate using IPv6. Neighbor discoveries would not be
transmitted to the other guest when both used a link-local address and a
static address.

This only happens when there is a MLDv2 querier in the network.

The fix will only break out of the loop when there is a failure adding a
multicast address.

The mdb before the patch:

dev ovirtmgmt port vnet0 grp ff02::1:ff7d:6603 temp
dev ovirtmgmt port vnet1 grp ff02::1:ff7d:6604 temp
dev ovirtmgmt port bond0.86 grp ff02::2 temp

The bridge code checks if vlan filtering is enabled on both
ingress and egress.   When the state flip happens, it
is possible for the bridge to currently be forwarding packets
and forwarding behavior becomes non-deterministic.  Bridge
may drop packets on some interfaces, but not others.

This patch solves this by caching the filtered state of the
packet into skb_cb on ingress.  The skb_cb is guaranteed to
not be over-written between the time packet entres bridge
forwarding path and the time it leaves it.  On egress, we
can then check the cached state to see if we need to
apply filtering information.

[ Upstream commit 20adfa1a81af00bf2027644507ad4fa9cd2849cf ]

The bridge code checks if vlan filtering is enabled on both
ingress and egress.   When the state flip happens, it
is possible for the bridge to currently be forwarding packets
and forwarding behavior becomes non-deterministic.  Bridge
may drop packets on some interfaces, but not others.

This patch solves this by caching the filtered state of the
packet into skb_cb on ingress.  The skb_cb is guaranteed to
not be over-written between the time packet entres bridge
forwarding path and the time it leaves it.  On egress, we
can then check the cached state to see if we need to
apply filtering information.

[ Upstream commit 0d5501c1c828fb97d02af50aa9d2b1a5498b94e4 ]

Currently the functionality to untag traffic on input resides
as part of the vlan module and is build only when VLAN support
is enabled in the kernel.  When VLAN is disabled, the function
vlan_untag() turns into a stub and doesn't really untag the
packets.  This seems to create an interesting interaction
between VMs supporting checksum offloading and some network drivers.

There are some drivers that do not allow the user to change
tx-vlan-offload feature of the driver.  These drivers also seem
to assume that any VLAN-tagged traffic they transmit will
have the vlan information in the vlan_tci and not in the vlan
header already in the skb.  When transmitting skbs that already
have tagged data with partial checksum set, the checksum doesn't
appear to be updated correctly by the card thus resulting in a
failure to establish TCP connections.

The following is a packet trace taken on the receiver where a
sender is a VM with a VLAN configued.  The host VM is running on
doest not have VLAN support and the outging interface on the
host is tg3:
10:12:43.503055 52:54:00:ae:42:3f &gt; 28:d2:44:7d:c2:de, ethertype 802.1Q
(0x8100), length 78: vlan 100, p 0, ethertype IPv4, (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 27243,
offset 0, flags [DF], proto TCP (6), length 60)
    10.0.100.1.58545 &gt; 10.0.100.10.ircu-2: Flags [S], cksum 0xdc39 (incorrect
-&gt; 0x48d9), seq 1069378582, win 29200, options [mss 1460,sackOK,TS val
4294837885 ecr 0,nop,wscale 7], length 0
10:12:44.505556 52:54:00:ae:42:3f &gt; 28:d2:44:7d:c2:de, ethertype 802.1Q
(0x8100), length 78: vlan 100, p 0, ethertype IPv4, (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 27244,
offset 0, flags [DF], proto TCP (6), length 60)
    10.0.100.1.58545 &gt; 10.0.100.10.ircu-2: Flags [S], cksum 0xdc39 (incorrect
-&gt; 0x44ee), seq 1069378582, win 29200, options [mss 1460,sackOK,TS val
4294838888 ecr 0,nop,wscale 7], length 0

This connection finally times out.

I've only access to the TG3 hardware in this configuration thus have
only tested this with TG3 driver.  There are a lot of other drivers
that do not permit user changes to vlan acceleration features, and
I don't know if they all suffere from a similar issue.

The patch attempt to fix this another way.  It moves the vlan header
stipping code out of the vlan module and always builds it into the
kernel network core.  This way, even if vlan is not supported on
a virtualizatoin host, the virtual machines running on top of such
host will still work with VLANs enabled.

<title>bridge: Prevent insertion of FDB entry with disallowed vlan</title>

[ Upstream commit e0d7968ab6c8bce2437b36fa7f04117e333f196d ]

br_handle_local_finish() is allowing us to insert an FDB entry with
disallowed vlan. For example, when port 1 and 2 are communicating in
vlan 10, and even if vlan 10 is disallowed on port 3, port 3 can
interfere with their communication by spoofed src mac address with
vlan id 10.

Note: Even if it is judged that a frame should not be learned, it should
not be dropped because it is destined for not forwarding layer but higher
layer. See IEEE 802.1Q-2011 8.13.10.
