[ Upstream commit 2ea2f62c8bda242433809c7f4e9eae1c52c40bbe ]

When I added pfmemalloc support in build_skb(), I forgot netlink
was using build_skb() with a vmalloc() area.

In this patch I introduce __build_skb() for netlink use,
and build_skb() is a wrapper handling both skb-&gt;head_frag and
skb-&gt;pfmemalloc

This means netlink no longer has to hack skb-&gt;head_frag

[ Upstream commit 79930f5892e134c6da1254389577fffb8bd72c66 ]

build_skb() should look at the page pfmemalloc status.
If set, this means page allocator allocated this page in the
expectation it would help to free other pages. Networking
stack can do that only if skb-&gt;pfmemalloc is also set.

Also, we must refrain using high order pages from the pfmemalloc
reserve, so __page_frag_refill() must also use __GFP_NOMEMALLOC for
them. Under memory pressure, using order-0 pages is probably the best
strategy.

Sure.

PS I used the wrong email for James the first time around.  So
let me repeat the question here.  Should secmark be preserved

do our security models even support name spaces?

This patch reverts commit b8fb4e0648a2ab3734140342002f68fb0c7d1602
because the secmark must be preserved even when a packet crosses
namespace boundaries.  The reason is that security labels apply to
the system as a whole and is not per-namespace.

[ Upstream commit f60e5990d9c1424af9dbca60a23ba2a1c7c1ce90 ]

We should not consult skb-&gt;sk for output decisions in xmit recursion
levels &gt; 0 in the stack. Otherwise local socket settings could influence
the result of e.g. tunnel encapsulation process.

ipv6 does not conform with this in three places:

1) ip6_fragment: we do consult ipv6_npinfo for frag_size

2) sk_mc_loop in ipv6 uses skb-&gt;sk and checks if we should
   loop the packet back to the local socket

3) ip6_skb_dst_mtu could query the settings from the user socket and
   force a wrong MTU

Furthermore:
In sk_mc_loop we could potentially land in WARN_ON(1) if we use a
PF_PACKET socket ontop of an IPv6-backed vxlan device.

Reuse xmit_recursion as we are currently only interested in protecting
tunnel devices.

<title>net: sysctl_net_core: check SNDBUF and RCVBUF for min length</title>

[ Upstream commit b1cb59cf2efe7971d3d72a7b963d09a512d994c9 ]

sysctl has sysctl.net.core.rmem_*/wmem_* parameters which can be
set to incorrect values. Given that 'struct sk_buff' allocates from
rcvbuf, incorrectly set buffer length could result to memory
allocation failures. For example, set them as follows:

    # sysctl net.core.rmem_default=64
      net.core.wmem_default = 64
    # sysctl net.core.wmem_default=64
      net.core.wmem_default = 64
    # ping localhost -s 1024 -i 0 &gt; /dev/null

This could result to the following failure:

skbuff: skb_over_panic: text:ffffffff81628db4 len:-32 put:-32

<title>net: do not use rcu in rtnl_dump_ifinfo()</title>

[ Upstream commit cac5e65e8a7ea074f2626d2eaa53aa308452dec4 ]

We did a failed attempt in the past to only use rcu in rtnl dump
operations (commit e67f88dd12f6 "net: dont hold rtnl mutex during
netlink dump callbacks")

Now that dumps are holding RTNL anyway, there is no need to also
use rcu locking, as it forbids any scheduling ability, like
GFP_KERNEL allocations that controlling path should use instead
of GFP_ATOMIC whenever possible.

This should fix following splat Cong Wang reported :

 [ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ]

 include/linux/rcupdate.h:538 Illegal context switch in RCU read-side critical section!

[ Upstream commit 52d6c8c6ca125872459054daa70f2f1c698c8e75 ]

Trying to use burst capability (aka xmit_more) on a virtual device
like bonding is not supported.

For example, skb might be queued multiple times on a qdisc, with
various list corruptions.

[ Upstream commit 997d5c3f4427f38562cbe207ce05bb25fdcb993b ]

Non NAPI drivers can call skb_tstamp_tx() and then sock_queue_err_skb()
from hard IRQ context.

Therefore, sock_dequeue_err_skb() needs to block hard irq or
corruptions or hangs can happen.
