[ Upstream commit 6fa9201a898983da731fca068bb4b5c941537588 ]

If a socket redirects to itself and it is under memory pressure it is
possible to get a socket stuck so that recv() returns EAGAIN and the
socket can not advance for some time. This happens because when
redirecting a skb to the same socket we received the skb on we first
check if it is OK to enqueue the skb on the receiving socket by checking
memory limits. But, if the skb is itself the object holding the memory
needed to enqueue the skb we will keep retrying from kernel side
and always fail with EAGAIN. Then userspace will get a recv() EAGAIN
error if there are no skbs in the psock ingress queue. This will continue
until either some skbs get kfree'd causing the memory pressure to
reduce far enough that we can enqueue the pending packet or the
socket is destroyed. In some cases its possible to get a socket
stuck for a noticeable amount of time if the socket is only receiving
skbs from sk_skb verdict programs. To reproduce I make the socket
memory limits ridiculously low so sockets are always under memory
pressure. More often though if under memory pressure it looks like
a spurious EAGAIN error on user space side causing userspace to retry
and typically enough has moved on the memory side that it works.

To fix skip memory checks and skb_orphan if receiving on the same
sock as already assigned.

For SK_PASS cases this is easy, its always the same socket so we
can just omit the orphan/set_owner pair.

For backlog cases we need to check skb-&gt;sk and decide if the orphan
and set_owner pair are needed.

[ Upstream commit 9ecbfb06a078c4911fb444203e8e41d93d22f886 ]

When we receive an skb and the ingress skb verdict program returns
SK_PASS we currently set the ingress flag and put it on the workqueue
so it can be turned into a sk_msg and put on the sk_msg ingress queue.
Then finally telling userspace with data_ready hook.

Here we observe that if the workqueue is empty then we can try to
convert into a sk_msg type and call data_ready directly without
bouncing through a workqueue. Its a common pattern to have a recv
verdict program for visibility that always returns SK_PASS. In this
case unless there is an ENOMEM error or we overrun the socket we
can avoid the workqueue completely only using it when we fall back
to error cases caused by memory pressure.

By doing this we eliminate another case where data may be dropped
if errors occur on memory limits in workqueue.

[ Upstream commit cfea28f890cf292d5fe90680db64b68086ef25ba ]

For sk_skb case where skb_verdict program returns SK_PASS to continue to
pass packet up the stack, the memory limits were already checked before
enqueuing in skb_queue_tail from TCP side. So, lets remove the extra checks
here. The theory is if the TCP stack believes we have memory to receive
the packet then lets trust the stack and not double check the limits.

In fact the accounting here can cause a drop if sk_rmem_alloc has increased
after the stack accepted this packet, but before the duplicate check here.
And worse if this happens because TCP stack already believes the data has
been received there is no retransmit.

[ Upstream commit 1532b9778478577152201adbafa7738b1e844868 ]

DSA network devices rely on having their DSA management interface up and
running otherwise their ndo_open() will return -ENETDOWN. Without doing
this it would not be possible to use DSA devices as netconsole when
configured on the command line. These devices also do not utilize the
upper/lower linking so the check about the netpoll device having upper
is not going to be a problem.

The solution adopted here is identical to the one done for
net/ipv4/ipconfig.c with 728c02089a0e ("net: ipv4: handle DSA enabled
master network devices"), with the network namespace scope being
restricted to that of the process configuring netpoll.

[ Upstream commit 8cf8821e15cd553339a5b48ee555a0439c2b2742 ]

Commit 58956317c8de ("neighbor: Improve garbage collection")
guarantees neighbour table entries a five-second lifetime.  Processes
which make heavy use of multicast can fill the neighour table with
multicast addresses in five seconds.  At that point, neighbour entries
can't be GC-ed because they aren't five seconds old yet, the kernel
log starts to fill up with "neighbor table overflow!" messages, and
sends start to fail.

This patch allows multicast addresses to be thrown out before they've
lived out their five seconds.  This makes room for non-multicast
addresses and makes messages to all addresses more reliable in these
circumstances.

[ Upstream commit 849920c703392957f94023f77ec89ca6cf119d43 ]

If sb_occ_port_pool_get() failed in devlink_nl_sb_port_pool_fill(),
msg should be canceled by genlmsg_cancel().

<title>socket: don't clear SOCK_TSTAMP_NEW when SO_TIMESTAMPNS is disabled</title>

commit 4e3bbb33e6f36e4b05be1b1b9b02e3dd5aaa3e69 upstream.

SOCK_TSTAMP_NEW (timespec64 instead of timespec) is also used for
hardware time stamps (configured via SO_TIMESTAMPING_NEW).

User space (ptp4l) first configures hardware time stamping via
SO_TIMESTAMPING_NEW which sets SOCK_TSTAMP_NEW. In the next step, ptp4l
disables SO_TIMESTAMPNS(_NEW) (software time stamps), but this must not
switch hardware time stamps back to "32 bit mode".

This problem happens on 32 bit platforms were the libc has already
switched to struct timespec64 (from SO_TIMExxx_OLD to SO_TIMExxx_NEW
socket options). ptp4l complains with "missing timestamp on transmitted
peer delay request" because the wrong format is received (and
discarded).

Fixes: 887feae36aee ("socket: Add SO_TIMESTAMP[NS]_NEW")
Fixes: 783da70e8396 ("net: add sock_enable_timestamps")

<title>net: Properly typecast int values to set sk_max_pacing_rate</title>

[ Upstream commit 700465fd338fe5df08a1b2e27fa16981f562547f ]

In setsockopt(SO_MAX_PACING_RATE) on 64bit systems, sk_max_pacing_rate,
after extended from 'u32' to 'unsigned long', takes unintentionally
hiked value whenever assigned from an 'int' value with MSB=1, due to
binary sign extension in promoting s32 to u64, e.g. 0x80000000 becomes
0xFFFFFFFF80000000.

Thus inflated sk_max_pacing_rate causes subsequent getsockopt to return
~0U unexpectedly. It may also result in increased pacing rate.

Fix by explicitly casting the 'int' value to 'unsigned int' before
assigning it to sk_max_pacing_rate, for zero extension to happen.
