[ Upstream commit 35306eb23814444bd4021f8a1c3047d3cb0c8b2b ]

Jann Horn reported that SO_PEERCRED and SO_PEERGROUPS implementations
are racy, as af_unix can concurrently change sk_peer_pid and sk_peer_cred.

In order to fix this issue, this patch adds a new spinlock that needs
to be used whenever these fields are read or written.

Jann also pointed out that l2cap_sock_get_peer_pid_cb() is currently
reading sk-&gt;sk_peer_pid which makes no sense, as this field
is only possibly set by AF_UNIX sockets.
We will have to clean this in a separate patch.
This could be done by reverting b48596d1dc25 "Bluetooth: L2CAP: Add get_peer_pid callback"
or implementing what was truly expected.

Fixes: 109f6e39fa07 ("af_unix: Allow SO_PEERCRED to work across namespaces.")

[ Upstream commit 323e0cb473e2a8706ff162b6b4f4fa16023c9ba7 ]

Fix the following out-of-bounds warnings:

    net/core/flow_dissector.c: In function '__skb_flow_dissect':
&gt;&gt; net/core/flow_dissector.c:1104:4: warning: 'memcpy' offset [24, 39] from the object at '&lt;unknown&gt;' is out of the bounds of referenced subobject 'saddr' with type 'struct in6_addr' at offset 8 [-Warray-bounds]

The problem is that the original code is trying to copy data into a
couple of struct members adjacent to each other in a single call to
memcpy().  So, the compiler legitimately complains about it. As these
are just a couple of members, fix this by copying each one of them in
separate calls to memcpy().

This helps with the ongoing efforts to globally enable -Warray-bounds
and get us closer to being able to tighten the FORTIFY_SOURCE routines
on memcpy().

commit 2dce224f469f060b9998a5a869151ef83c08ce77 upstream.

__peernet2id() can be protected by RCU as it only calls idr_for_each(),
which is RCU-safe, and never modifies the nsid table.

rtnl_net_dumpid() can also do lockless lookups. It does two nested
idr_for_each() calls on nsid tables (one direct call and one indirect
call because of rtnl_net_dumpid_one() calling __peernet2id()). The
netnsid tables are never updated. Therefore it is safe to not take the
nsid_lock and run within an RCU-critical section instead.

[ Upstream commit 96a6b93b69880b2c978e1b2be9cae6970b605008 ]

Currently when device is moved between network namespaces using
RTM_NEWLINK message type and one of netns attributes (FLA_NET_NS_PID,
IFLA_NET_NS_FD, IFLA_TARGET_NETNSID) but w/o specifying IFLA_IFNAME, and
target namespace already has device with same name, userspace will get
EINVAL what is confusing and makes debugging harder.

Fix it so that userspace gets more appropriate EEXIST instead what makes
debugging much easier.

Before:

  # ./ifname.sh
  + ip netns add ns0
  + ip netns exec ns0 ip link add l0 type dummy
  + ip netns exec ns0 ip link show l0
  8: l0: &lt;BROADCAST,NOARP&gt; mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000

  + ip link add l0 type dummy
  + ip link show l0
  10: l0: &lt;BROADCAST,NOARP&gt; mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
      link/ether 6e:c6:1f:15:20:8d brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
  + ip link set l0 netns ns0
  RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument

After:

  # ./ifname.sh
  + ip netns add ns0
  + ip netns exec ns0 ip link add l0 type dummy
  + ip netns exec ns0 ip link show l0
  8: l0: &lt;BROADCAST,NOARP&gt; mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
      link/ether 1e:4a:72:e3:e3:8f brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
  + ip link add l0 type dummy
  + ip link show l0
  10: l0: &lt;BROADCAST,NOARP&gt; mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
      link/ether f2:fc:fe:2b:7d:a6 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
  + ip link set l0 netns ns0
  RTNETLINK answers: File exists

The problem is that do_setlink() passes its `char *ifname` argument,
that it gets from a caller, to __dev_change_net_namespace() as is (as
`const char *pat`), but semantics of ifname and pat can be different.

For example, __rtnl_newlink() does this:

net/core/rtnetlink.c
    3270	char ifname[IFNAMSIZ];
     ...
    3286	if (tb[IFLA_IFNAME])
    3287		nla_strscpy(ifname, tb[IFLA_IFNAME], IFNAMSIZ);
    3288	else
    3289		ifname[0] = '\0';
     ...
    3364	if (dev) {
     ...
    3394		return do_setlink(skb, dev, ifm, extack, tb, ifname, status);
    3395	}

, i.e. do_setlink() gets ifname pointer that is always valid no matter
if user specified IFLA_IFNAME or not and then do_setlink() passes this
ifname pointer as is to __dev_change_net_namespace() as pat argument.

But the pat (pattern) in __dev_change_net_namespace() is used as:

net/core/dev.c
   11198	err = -EEXIST;
   11199	if (__dev_get_by_name(net, dev-&gt;name)) {
   11200		/* We get here if we can't use the current device name */
   11201		if (!pat)
   11202			goto out;
   11203		err = dev_get_valid_name(net, dev, pat);
   11204		if (err &lt; 0)
   11205			goto out;
   11206	}

As the result the `goto out` path on line 11202 is neven taken and
instead of returning EEXIST defined on line 11198,
__dev_change_net_namespace() returns an error from dev_get_valid_name()
and this, in turn, will be EINVAL for ifname[0] = '\0' set earlier.

[ Upstream commit 6922110d152e56d7569616b45a1f02876cf3eb9f ]

After migrating my laptop from 4.19-LTS to 5.4-LTS a while ago I noticed
that my Ethernet port to which a bond and a VLAN interface are attached
appeared to remain up after resuming from suspend with the cable unplugged
(and that problem still persists with 5.10-LTS).

It happens that the following happens:

  - the network driver (e1000e here) prepares to suspend, calls e1000e_down()
    which calls netif_carrier_off() to signal that the link is going down.
  - netif_carrier_off() adds a link_watch event to the list of events for
    this device
  - the device is completely stopped.
  - the machine suspends
  - the cable is unplugged and the machine brought to another location
  - the machine is resumed
  - the queued linkwatch events are processed for the device
  - the device doesn't yet have the __LINK_STATE_PRESENT bit and its events
    are silently dropped
  - the device is resumed with its link down
  - the upper VLAN and bond interfaces are never notified that the link had
    been turned down and remain up
  - the only way to provoke a change is to physically connect the machine
    to a port and possibly unplug it.

The state after resume looks like this:
  $ ip -br li | egrep 'bond|eth'
  bond0            UP             e8:6a:64:64:64:64 &lt;BROADCAST,MULTICAST,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP&gt;
  eth0             DOWN           e8:6a:64:64:64:64 &lt;NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,SLAVE,UP&gt;
  eth0.2@eth0      UP             e8:6a:64:64:64:64 &lt;BROADCAST,MULTICAST,SLAVE,UP,LOWER_UP&gt;

Placing an explicit call to netdev_state_change() either in the suspend
or the resume code in the NIC driver worked around this but the solution
is not satisfying.

The issue in fact really is in link_watch that loses events while it
ought not to. It happens that the test for the device being present was
added by commit 124eee3f6955 ("net: linkwatch: add check for netdevice
being present to linkwatch_do_dev") in 4.20 to avoid an access to
devices that are not present.

Instead of dropping events, this patch proceeds slightly differently by
postponing their handling so that they happen after the device is fully
resumed.

[ Upstream commit 6922110d152e56d7569616b45a1f02876cf3eb9f ]

After migrating my laptop from 4.19-LTS to 5.4-LTS a while ago I noticed
that my Ethernet port to which a bond and a VLAN interface are attached
appeared to remain up after resuming from suspend with the cable unplugged
(and that problem still persists with 5.10-LTS).

It happens that the following happens:

  - the network driver (e1000e here) prepares to suspend, calls e1000e_down()
    which calls netif_carrier_off() to signal that the link is going down.
  - netif_carrier_off() adds a link_watch event to the list of events for
    this device
  - the device is completely stopped.
  - the machine suspends
  - the cable is unplugged and the machine brought to another location
  - the machine is resumed
  - the queued linkwatch events are processed for the device
  - the device doesn't yet have the __LINK_STATE_PRESENT bit and its events
    are silently dropped
  - the device is resumed with its link down
  - the upper VLAN and bond interfaces are never notified that the link had
    been turned down and remain up
  - the only way to provoke a change is to physically connect the machine
    to a port and possibly unplug it.

The state after resume looks like this:
  $ ip -br li | egrep 'bond|eth'
  bond0            UP             e8:6a:64:64:64:64 &lt;BROADCAST,MULTICAST,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP&gt;
  eth0             DOWN           e8:6a:64:64:64:64 &lt;NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,SLAVE,UP&gt;
  eth0.2@eth0      UP             e8:6a:64:64:64:64 &lt;BROADCAST,MULTICAST,SLAVE,UP,LOWER_UP&gt;

[ Upstream commit a17ad0961706244dce48ec941f7e476a38c0e727 ]

In some cases skb head could be locked and entire header
data is pulled from skb. When skb_zerocopy() called in such cases,
following BUG is triggered. This patch fixes it by copying entire
skb in such cases.
This could be optimized incase this is performance bottleneck.

while another thread can change its value in sock_setsockopt()

This is correct but needs annotations.

[ Upstream commit 8380c81d5c4fced6f4397795a5ae65758272bbfd ]

__napi_schedule_irqoff() is an optimized version of __napi_schedule()
which can be used where it is known that interrupts are disabled,
e.g. in interrupt-handlers, spin_lock_irq() sections or hrtimer
callbacks.

On PREEMPT_RT enabled kernels this assumptions is not true. Force-
threaded interrupt handlers and spinlocks are not disabling interrupts
and the NAPI hrtimer callback is forced into softirq context which runs
with interrupts enabled as well.

Chasing all usage sites of __napi_schedule_irqoff() is a whack-a-mole
game so make __napi_schedule_irqoff() invoke __napi_schedule() for
PREEMPT_RT kernels.

The callers of ____napi_schedule() in the networking core have been
audited and are correct on PREEMPT_RT kernels as well.

[ Upstream commit 364745fbe981a4370f50274475da4675661104df ]

This is technically a backwards incompatible change in behaviour, but I'm
going to argue that it is very unlikely to break things, and likely to fix
*far* more then it breaks.

In no particular order, various reasons follow:

(a) I've long had a bug assigned to myself to debug a super rare kernel crash
on Android Pixel phones which can (per stacktrace) be traced back to BPF clat
IPv6 to IPv4 protocol conversion causing some sort of ugly failure much later
on during transmit deep in the GSO engine, AFAICT precisely because of this
change to gso_size, though I've never been able to manually reproduce it. I
believe it may be related to the particular network offload support of attached
USB ethernet dongle being used for tethering off of an IPv6-only cellular
connection. The reason might be we end up with more segments than max permitted,
or with a GSO packet with only one segment... (either way we break some
assumption and hit a BUG_ON)

(b) There is no check that the gso_size is &gt; 20 when reducing it by 20, so we
might end up with a negative (or underflowing) gso_size or a gso_size of 0.
This can't possibly be good. Indeed this is probably somehow exploitable (or
at least can result in a kernel crash) by delivering crafted packets and perhaps
triggering an infinite loop or a divide by zero... As a reminder: gso_size (MSS)
is related to MTU, but not directly derived from it: gso_size/MSS may be
significantly smaller then one would get by deriving from local MTU. And on
some NICs (which do loose MTU checking on receive, it may even potentially be
larger, for example my work pc with 1500 MTU can receive 1520 byte frames [and
sometimes does due to bugs in a vendor plat46 implementation]). Indeed even just
going from 21 to 1 is potentially problematic because it increases the number
of segments by a factor of 21 (think DoS, or some other crash due to too many
segments).

(c) It's always safe to not increase the gso_size, because it doesn't result in
the max packet size increasing.  So the skb_increase_gso_size() call was always
unnecessary for correctness (and outright undesirable, see later). As such the
only part which is potentially dangerous (ie. could cause backwards compatibility
issues) is the removal of the skb_decrease_gso_size() call.

(d) If the packets are ultimately destined to the local device, then there is
absolutely no benefit to playing around with gso_size. It only matters if the
packets will egress the device. ie. we're either forwarding, or transmitting
from the device.

(e) This logic only triggers for packets which are GSO. It does not trigger for
skbs which are not GSO. It will not convert a non-GSO MTU sized packet into a
GSO packet (and you don't even know what the MTU is, so you can't even fix it).
As such your transmit path must *already* be able to handle an MTU 20 bytes
larger then your receive path (for IPv4 to IPv6 translation) - and indeed 28
bytes larger due to IPv4 fragments. Thus removing the skb_decrease_gso_size()
call doesn't actually increase the size of the packets your transmit side must
be able to handle. ie. to handle non-GSO max-MTU packets, the IPv4/IPv6 device/
route MTUs must already be set correctly. Since for example with an IPv4 egress
MTU of 1500, IPv4 to IPv6 translation will already build 1520 byte IPv6 frames,
so you need a 1520 byte device MTU. This means if your IPv6 device's egress
MTU is 1280, your IPv4 route must be 1260 (and actually 1252, because of the
need to handle fragments). This is to handle normal non-GSO packets. Thus the
reduction is simply not needed for GSO packets, because when they're correctly
built, they will already be the right size.

(f) TSO/GSO should be able to exactly undo GRO: the number of packets (TCP
segments) should not be modified, so that TCP's MSS counting works correctly
(this matters for congestion control). If protocol conversion changes the
gso_size, then the number of TCP segments may increase or decrease. Packet loss
after protocol conversion can result in partial loss of MSS segments that the
sender sent. How's the sending TCP stack going to react to receiving ACKs/SACKs
in the middle of the segments it sent?

(g) skb_{decrease,increase}_gso_size() are already no-ops for GSO_BY_FRAGS
case (besides triggering WARN_ON_ONCE). This means you already cannot guarantee
that gso_size (and thus resulting packet MTU) is changed. ie. you must assume
it won't be changed.

(h) changing gso_size is outright buggy for UDP GSO packets, where framing
matters (I believe that's also the case for SCTP, but it's already excluded
by [g]).  So the only remaining case is TCP, which also doesn't want it
(see [f]).

(i) see also the reasoning on the previous attempt at fixing this
(commit fa7b83bf3b156c767f3e4a25bbf3817b08f3ff8e) which shows that the current
behaviour causes TCP packet loss:

  In the forwarding path GRO -&gt; BPF 6 to 4 -&gt; GSO for TCP traffic, the
  coalesced packet payload can be &gt; MSS, but &lt; MSS + 20.

  bpf_skb_proto_6_to_4() will upgrade the MSS and it can be &gt; the payload
  length. After then tcp_gso_segment checks for the payload length if it
  is &lt;= MSS. The condition is causing the packet to be dropped.

  tcp_gso_segment():
    [...]
    mss = skb_shinfo(skb)-&gt;gso_size;
    if (unlikely(skb-&gt;len &lt;= mss)) goto out;
    [...]

Thus changing the gso_size is simply a very bad idea. Increasing is unnecessary
and buggy, and decreasing can go negative.

[ Upstream commit 364745fbe981a4370f50274475da4675661104df ]

This is technically a backwards incompatible change in behaviour, but I'm
going to argue that it is very unlikely to break things, and likely to fix
*far* more then it breaks.

In no particular order, various reasons follow:

(a) I've long had a bug assigned to myself to debug a super rare kernel crash
on Android Pixel phones which can (per stacktrace) be traced back to BPF clat
IPv6 to IPv4 protocol conversion causing some sort of ugly failure much later
on during transmit deep in the GSO engine, AFAICT precisely because of this
change to gso_size, though I've never been able to manually reproduce it. I
believe it may be related to the particular network offload support of attached
USB ethernet dongle being used for tethering off of an IPv6-only cellular
connection. The reason might be we end up with more segments than max permitted,
or with a GSO packet with only one segment... (either way we break some
assumption and hit a BUG_ON)

(b) There is no check that the gso_size is &gt; 20 when reducing it by 20, so we
might end up with a negative (or underflowing) gso_size or a gso_size of 0.
This can't possibly be good. Indeed this is probably somehow exploitable (or
at least can result in a kernel crash) by delivering crafted packets and perhaps
triggering an infinite loop or a divide by zero... As a reminder: gso_size (MSS)
is related to MTU, but not directly derived from it: gso_size/MSS may be
significantly smaller then one would get by deriving from local MTU. And on
some NICs (which do loose MTU checking on receive, it may even potentially be
larger, for example my work pc with 1500 MTU can receive 1520 byte frames [and
sometimes does due to bugs in a vendor plat46 implementation]). Indeed even just
going from 21 to 1 is potentially problematic because it increases the number
of segments by a factor of 21 (think DoS, or some other crash due to too many
segments).

(c) It's always safe to not increase the gso_size, because it doesn't result in
the max packet size increasing.  So the skb_increase_gso_size() call was always
unnecessary for correctness (and outright undesirable, see later). As such the
only part which is potentially dangerous (ie. could cause backwards compatibility
issues) is the removal of the skb_decrease_gso_size() call.

(d) If the packets are ultimately destined to the local device, then there is
absolutely no benefit to playing around with gso_size. It only matters if the
packets will egress the device. ie. we're either forwarding, or transmitting
from the device.

(e) This logic only triggers for packets which are GSO. It does not trigger for
skbs which are not GSO. It will not convert a non-GSO MTU sized packet into a
GSO packet (and you don't even know what the MTU is, so you can't even fix it).
As such your transmit path must *already* be able to handle an MTU 20 bytes
larger then your receive path (for IPv4 to IPv6 translation) - and indeed 28
bytes larger due to IPv4 fragments. Thus removing the skb_decrease_gso_size()
call doesn't actually increase the size of the packets your transmit side must
be able to handle. ie. to handle non-GSO max-MTU packets, the IPv4/IPv6 device/
route MTUs must already be set correctly. Since for example with an IPv4 egress
MTU of 1500, IPv4 to IPv6 translation will already build 1520 byte IPv6 frames,
so you need a 1520 byte device MTU. This means if your IPv6 device's egress
MTU is 1280, your IPv4 route must be 1260 (and actually 1252, because of the
need to handle fragments). This is to handle normal non-GSO packets. Thus the
reduction is simply not needed for GSO packets, because when they're correctly
built, they will already be the right size.

(f) TSO/GSO should be able to exactly undo GRO: the number of packets (TCP

[ Upstream commit 80ec82e3d2c1fab42eeb730aaa7985494a963d3f ]

Several ethtool functions leave heap uncleared (potentially) by
drivers. This will leave the unused portion of heap unchanged and
might copy the full contents back to userspace.
