[ Upstream commit 13baa00ad01bb3a9f893e3a08cbc2d072fc0c15d ]

It is now very clear that silly TCP listeners might play with
enabling/disabling timestamping while new children are added
to their accept queue.

Meaning net_enable_timestamp() can be called from BH context
while current state of the static key is not enabled.

Lets play safe and allow all contexts.

The work queue is scheduled only under the problematic cases,
which are the static key enable/disable transition, to not slow down
critical paths.

This extends and improves what we did in commit 5fa8bbda38c6 ("net: use
a work queue to defer net_disable_timestamp() work")

Fixes: b90e5794c5bd ("net: dont call jump_label_dec from irq context")

[ Upstream commit 5fa8bbda38c668e56b0c6cdecced2eac2fe36dec ]

Dmitry reported a warning [1] showing that we were calling
net_disable_timestamp() -&gt; static_key_slow_dec() from a non
process context.

Grabbing a mutex while holding a spinlock or rcu_read_lock()
is not allowed.

As Cong suggested, we now use a work queue.

It is possible netstamp_clear() exits while netstamp_needed_deferred
is not zero, but it is probably not worth trying to do better than that.

netstamp_needed_deferred atomic tracks the exact number of deferred
decrements.

[ Upstream commit 7be2c82cfd5d28d7adb66821a992604eb6dd112e ]

Ashizuka reported a highmem oddity and sent a patch for freescale
fec driver.

But the problem root cause is that core networking stack
must ensure no skb with highmem fragment is ever sent through
a device that does not assert NETIF_F_HIGHDMA in its features.

We need to call illegal_highdma() from harmonize_features()
regardless of CSUM checks.

[ Upstream commit 1272ce87fa017ca4cf32920764d879656b7a005a ]

The GRO path has a fast-path where we avoid calling pskb_may_pull
and pskb_expand by directly accessing frag0.  However, this should
only be done if we have enough tailroom in the skb as otherwise
we'll have to expand it later anyway.

This patch adds the check by capping frag0_len with the skb tailroom.

[ Upstream commit 4f2e4ad56a65f3b7d64c258e373cb71e8d2499f4 ]

Sending zero checksum is ok for TCP, but not for UDP.

UDPv6 receiver should by default drop a frame with a 0 checksum,
and UDPv4 would not verify the checksum and might accept a corrupted
packet.

Simply replace such checksum by 0xffff, regardless of transport.

This error was caught on SIT tunnels, but seems generic.

<title>net: Add netdev all_adj_list refcnt propagation to fix panic</title>

[ Upstream commit 93409033ae653f1c9a949202fb537ab095b2092f ]

This is a respin of a patch to fix a relatively easily reproducible kernel
panic related to the all_adj_list handling for netdevs in recent kernels.

The following sequence of commands will reproduce the issue:

ip link add link eth0 name eth0.100 type vlan id 100
ip link add link eth0 name eth0.200 type vlan id 200
ip link add name testbr type bridge
ip link set eth0.100 master testbr
ip link set eth0.200 master testbr
ip link add link testbr mac0 type macvlan
ip link delete dev testbr

This creates an upper/lower tree of (excuse the poor ASCII art):

            /---eth0.100-eth0
mac0-testbr-
            \---eth0.200-eth0

When testbr is deleted, the all_adj_lists are walked, and eth0 is deleted twice from
the mac0 list. Unfortunately, during setup in __netdev_upper_dev_link, only one
reference to eth0 is added, so this results in a panic.

This change adds reference count propagation so things are handled properly.

Matthias Schiffer reported a similar crash in batman-adv:

https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/680
https://www.open-mesh.org/issues/247

which this patch also seems to resolve.

[js] 3.12 does not have lists yet.

<title>bonding: Fix bonding crash</title>

[ Upstream commit 24b27fc4cdf9e10c5e79e5923b6b7c2c5c95096c ]

Following few steps will crash kernel -

  (a) Create bonding master
      &gt; modprobe bonding miimon=50
  (b) Create macvlan bridge on eth2
      &gt; ip link add link eth2 dev mvl0 address aa:0:0:0:0:01 \
	   type macvlan
  (c) Now try adding eth2 into the bond
      &gt; echo +eth2 &gt; /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves
      &lt;crash&gt;

Bonding does lots of things before checking if the device enslaved is
busy or not.

In this case when the notifier call-chain sends notifications, the
bond_netdev_event() assumes that the rx_handler /rx_handler_data is
registered while the bond_enslave() hasn't progressed far enough to
register rx_handler for the new slave.

This patch adds a rx_handler check that can be performed right at the
beginning of the enslave code to avoid getting into this situation.

[ Upstream commit e9e4dd3267d0c5234c5c0f47440456b10875dec9 ]

commit 381c759d9916 ("ipv4: Avoid crashing in ip_error")
fixes a problem where processed packet comes from device
with destroyed inetdev (dev-&gt;ip_ptr). This is not expected
because inetdev_destroy is called in NETDEV_UNREGISTER
phase and packets should not be processed after
dev_close_many() and synchronize_net(). Above fix is still
required because inetdev_destroy can be called for other
reasons. But it shows the real problem: backlog can keep
packets for long time and they do not hold reference to
device. Such packets are then delivered to upper levels
at the same time when device is unregistered.
Calling flush_backlog after NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL still
accounts all packets from backlog but before that some packets
continue to be delivered to upper levels long after the
synchronize_net call which is supposed to wait the last
ones. Also, as Eric pointed out, processed packets, mostly
from other devices, can continue to add new packets to backlog.

Fix the problem by moving flush_backlog early, after the
device driver is stopped and before the synchronize_net() call.
Then use netif_running check to make sure we do not add more
packets to backlog. We have to do it in enqueue_to_backlog
context when the local IRQ is disabled. As result, after the
flush_backlog and synchronize_net sequence all packets
should be accounted.

Thanks to Eric W. Biederman for the test script and his
valuable feedback!
