commit a6a5993243550b09f620941dea741b7421fdf79c upstream.

The patch 327868212381 (make skb_copy_datagram_msg() et.al. preserve
-&gt;msg_iter on error) will revert the iov buffer if copy to iter
failed, but it didn't copy any datagram if the skb_checksum_complete
error, so no need to revert any data at this place.

v2: Sabrina notice that return -EFAULT when checksum error is not correct
    here, it would confuse the caller about the return value, so fix it.

Fixes: 327868212381 ("make skb_copy_datagram_msg() et.al. preserve-&gt;msg_iter on error")

[ Upstream commit 84b114b98452c431299d99c135f751659e517acb ]

Whole point of randomization was to hide server uptime, but an attacker
can simply start a syn flood and TCP generates 'old style' timestamps,
directly revealing server jiffies value.

Also, TSval sent by the server to a particular remote address vary
depending on syncookies being sent or not, potentially triggering PAWS
drops for innocent clients.

Lets implement proper randomization, including for SYNcookies.

Also we do not need to export sysctl_tcp_timestamps, since it is not
used from a module.

In v2, I added Florian feedback and contribution, adding tsoff to
tcp_get_cookie_sock().

v3 removed one unused variable in tcp_v4_connect() as Florian spotted.

Fixes: 95a22caee396c ("tcp: randomize tcp timestamp offsets for each connection")

[ Upstream commit 77ef033b687c3e030017c94a29bf6ea3aaaef678 ]

IFLA_PHYS_PORT_NAME is a string attribute, so terminate it with \0.
Otherwise libnl3 fails to validate netlink messages with this attribute.
"ip -detail a" assumes too that the attribute is NUL-terminated when
printing it. It often was, due to padding.

I noticed this as libvirtd failing to start on a system with sfc driver
after upgrading it to Linux 4.11, i.e. when sfc added support for
phys_port_name.

<title>net: adjust skb-&gt;truesize in ___pskb_trim()</title>

Andrey found a way to trigger the WARN_ON_ONCE(delta &lt; len) in
skb_try_coalesce() using syzkaller and a filter attached to a TCP
socket.

As we did recently in commit 158f323b9868 ("net: adjust skb-&gt;truesize in
pskb_expand_head()") we can adjust skb-&gt;truesize from ___pskb_trim(),
via a call to skb_condense().

If all frags were freed, then skb-&gt;truesize can be recomputed.

This call can be done if skb is not yet owned, or destructor is
sock_edemux().

Reducing real_num_tx_queues needs to be in sync with skb queue_mapping
otherwise skbs with queue_mapping greater than real_num_tx_queues
can be sent to the underlying driver and can result in kernel panic.

One such event is running netconsole and enabling VF on the same
device. Or running netconsole and changing number of tx queues via
ethtool on same device.

e.g.
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference
tsk-&gt;{mm,active_mm}-&gt;context = 0000000000001525

Commit 07b26c9454a2 ("gso: Support partial splitting at the frag_list
pointer") assumes that all SKBs in a frag_list (except maybe the last
one) contain the same amount of GSO payload.

This assumption is not always correct, resulting in the following
warning message in the log:
    skb_segment: too many frags

For example, mlx5 driver in Striding RQ mode creates some RX SKBs with
one frag, and some with 2 frags.
After GRO, the frag_list SKBs end up having different amounts of payload.
If this frag_list SKB is then forwarded, the aforementioned assumption
is violated.

Validate the assumption, and fall back to software GSO if it not true.

<title>net-timestamp: avoid use-after-free in ip_recv_error</title>

Syzkaller reported a use-after-free in ip_recv_error at line

    info-&gt;ipi_ifindex = skb-&gt;dev-&gt;ifindex;

This function is called on dequeue from the error queue, at which
point the device pointer may no longer be valid.

Save ifindex on enqueue in __skb_complete_tx_timestamp, when the
pointer is valid or NULL. Store it in temporary storage skb-&gt;cb.

It is safe to reference skb-&gt;dev here, as called from device drivers
or dev_queue_xmit. The exception is when called from tcp_ack_tstamp;
in that case it is NULL and ifindex is set to 0 (invalid).

Do not return a pktinfo cmsg if ifindex is 0. This maintains the
current behavior of not returning a cmsg if skb-&gt;dev was NULL.

On dequeue, the ipv4 path will cast from sock_exterr_skb to
in_pktinfo. Both have ifindex as their first element, so no explicit
conversion is needed. This is by design, introduced in commit
0b922b7a829c ("net: original ingress device index in PKTINFO"). For
ipv6 ip6_datagram_support_cmsg converts to in6_pktinfo.

Since dev_change_xdp_fd() is only used in rtnetlink, which must
be built-in, there's no reason to export dev_change_xdp_fd().
