[ Upstream commit 9af9959e142c274f4a30fefb71d97d2b028b337f ]

commit 9256645af098 ("net/core: relax BUILD_BUG_ON in
netdev_stats_to_stats64") made an attempt to read beyond
the size of the source a possibility.

Fix to only copy src size to dest. As dest might be bigger than src.

<title>net: handle NAPI_GRO_FREE_STOLEN_HEAD case also in napi_frags_finish()</title>

[ Upstream commit e44699d2c28067f69698ccb68dd3ddeacfebc434 ]

Recently I started seeing warnings about pages with refcount -1. The
problem was traced to packets being reused after their head was merged into
a GRO packet by skb_gro_receive(). While bisecting the issue pointed to
commit c21b48cc1bbf ("net: adjust skb-&gt;truesize in ___pskb_trim()") and
I have never seen it on a kernel with it reverted, I believe the real
problem appeared earlier when the option to merge head frag in GRO was
implemented.

Handling NAPI_GRO_FREE_STOLEN_HEAD state was only added to GRO_MERGED_FREE
branch of napi_skb_finish() so that if the driver uses napi_gro_frags()
and head is merged (which in my case happens after the skb_condense()
call added by the commit mentioned above), the skb is reused including the
head that has been merged. As a result, we release the page reference
twice and eventually end up with negative page refcount.

To fix the problem, handle NAPI_GRO_FREE_STOLEN_HEAD in napi_frags_finish()
the same way it's done in napi_skb_finish().

branch of napi_skb_finish() so that if the driver uses napi_gro_frags()
and head is merged (which in my case happens after the skb_condense()
call added by the commit mentioned above), the skb is reused including the
head that has been merged. As a result, we release the page reference
twice and eventually end up with negative page refcount.

To fix the problem, handle NAPI_GRO_FREE_STOLEN_HEAD in napi_frags_finish()
the same way it's done in napi_skb_finish().

9b3dc0a17d73 ("l2tp: cast l2tp traffic counter to unsigned")
we need to take care of 32bit kernels in dev_get_stats().

When using atomic_long_read(), we add a 'long' to u64 and

[ Upstream commit f186ce61bb8235d80068c390dc2aad7ca427a4c2 ]

It looks like this:

Message from syslogd@flamingo at Apr 26 00:45:00 ...
 kernel:unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 4

They seem to coincide with net namespace teardown.

The message is emitted by netdev_wait_allrefs().

Forced a kdump in netdev_run_todo, but found that the refcount on the lo
device was already 0 at the time we got to the panic.

Used bcc to check the blocking in netdev_run_todo.  The only places
where we're off cpu there are in the rcu_barrier() and msleep() calls.
That behavior is expected.  The msleep time coincides with the amount of
time we spend waiting for the refcount to reach zero; the rcu_barrier()
wait times are not excessive.

After looking through the list of callbacks that the netdevice notifiers
invoke in this path, it appears that the dst_dev_event is the most
interesting.  The dst_ifdown path places a hold on the loopback_dev as
part of releasing the dev associated with the original dst cache entry.
Most of our notifier callbacks are straight-forward, but this one a)
looks complex, and b) places a hold on the network interface in
question.

I constructed a new bcc script that watches various events in the
liftime of a dst cache entry.  Note that dst_ifdown will take a hold on
the loopback device until the invalidated dst entry gets freed.

<title>net: Fix inconsistent teardown and release of private netdev state.</title>

[ Upstream commit cf124db566e6b036b8bcbe8decbed740bdfac8c6 ]

Network devices can allocate reasources and private memory using
netdev_ops-&gt;ndo_init().  However, the release of these resources
can occur in one of two different places.

Either netdev_ops-&gt;ndo_uninit() or netdev-&gt;destructor().

The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon
whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it
is safe to perform the freeing.

netdev_ops-&gt;ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the
NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast
address lists are flushed.

netdev-&gt;destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the
netdev references all go away.

Further complicating the situation is that netdev-&gt;destructor()
almost universally does also a free_netdev().

This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice().
Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing
of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice()
fails.

If netdev_ops-&gt;ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside
of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops-&gt;ndo_uninit().  But
it is not able to invoke netdev-&gt;destructor().

This is because netdev-&gt;destructor() will do a free_netdev() and
then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same.

However, this means that the resources that would normally be released
by netdev-&gt;destructor() will not be.

Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by
invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice()
fails.

Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks.

Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what
private things need to be freed up by netdev-&gt;destructor() and whether
the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev().

netdev-&gt;priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private
resources that used to be freed by netdev-&gt;destructor(), except for
free_netdev().

netdev-&gt;needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether
free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice().

Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after
ndo_ops-&gt;ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops-&gt;ndo_uninit()
and netdev-&gt;priv_destructor().

And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke
netdev-&gt;priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev().

The bpf_clone_redirect() still needs to be listed in
bpf_helper_changes_pkt_data() since we call into
bpf_try_make_head_writable() from there, thus we need
to invalidate prior pkt regs as well.

[ Upstream commit 41703a731066fde79c3e5ccf3391cf77a98aeda5 ]

The bpf_clone_redirect() still needs to be listed in
bpf_helper_changes_pkt_data() since we call into
bpf_try_make_head_writable() from there, thus we need
to invalidate prior pkt regs as well.

Fixes: 36bbef52c7eb ("bpf: direct packet write and access for helpers for clsact progs")
