[ Upstream commit 3a0a3ff6593d670af2451ec363ccb7b18aec0c0a ]

Upstream fix ac888d58869b ("net: do not delay dst_entries_add() in
dst_release()") moved decrementing the dst count from dst_destroy to
dst_release to avoid accessing already freed data in case of netns
dismantle. However in case CONFIG_DST_CACHE is enabled and OvS+tunnels
are used, this fix is incomplete as the same issue will be seen for
cached dsts:

  Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffff5aabf6b5c000
  Call trace:
   percpu_counter_add_batch+0x3c/0x160 (P)
   dst_release+0xec/0x108

   rcu_do_batch+0x18c/0x7d0
   rcu_core+0x174/0x378
   rcu_core_si+0x18/0x30

Fix this by invalidating the cache, and thus decrementing cached dst
counters, in dst_release too.

<title>rtnetlink: Use register_pernet_subsys() in rtnl_net_debug_init().</title>

[ Upstream commit 1b7fdc702c031134c619b74c4f311c590e50ca3d ]

rtnl_net_debug_init() registers rtnl_net_debug_net_ops by
register_pernet_device() but calls unregister_pernet_subsys()
in case register_netdevice_notifier() fails.

It corrupts pernet_list because first_device is updated in
register_pernet_device() but not unregister_pernet_subsys().

Let's fix it by calling register_pernet_subsys() instead.

The _subsys() one fits better for the use case because it keeps
the notifier alive until default_device_exit_net(), giving it
more chance to test NETDEV_UNREGISTER.

[ Upstream commit ca4419f15abd19ba8be1e109661b60f9f5b6c9f0 ]

Extend the XDP Tx metadata framework so that user can requests launch time
hardware offload, where the Ethernet device will schedule the packet for
transmission at a pre-determined time called launch time. The value of
launch time is communicated from user space to Ethernet driver via
launch_time field of struct xsk_tx_metadata.

<title>net: Remove RTNL dance for SIOCBRADDIF and SIOCBRDELIF.</title>

[ Upstream commit ed3ba9b6e280e14cc3148c1b226ba453f02fa76c ]

SIOCBRDELIF is passed to dev_ioctl() first and later forwarded to
br_ioctl_call(), which causes unnecessary RTNL dance and the splat
below [0] under RTNL pressure.

Let's say Thread A is trying to detach a device from a bridge and
Thread B is trying to remove the bridge.

In dev_ioctl(), Thread A bumps the bridge device's refcnt by
netdev_hold() and releases RTNL because the following br_ioctl_call()
also re-acquires RTNL.

In the race window, Thread B could acquire RTNL and try to remove
the bridge device.  Then, rtnl_unlock() by Thread B will release RTNL
and wait for netdev_put() by Thread A.

Thread A, however, must hold RTNL after the unlock in dev_ifsioc(),
which may take long under RTNL pressure, resulting in the splat by
Thread B.

                                                and log splat below

To avoid blocking SIOCBRDELBR unnecessarily, let's not call
dev_ioctl() for SIOCBRADDIF and SIOCBRDELIF.

In the dev_ioctl() path, we do the following:

  1. Copy struct ifreq by get_user_ifreq in sock_do_ioctl()
  2. Check CAP_NET_ADMIN in dev_ioctl()
  3. Call dev_load() in dev_ioctl()
  4. Fetch the master dev from ifr.ifr_name in dev_ifsioc()

3. can be done by request_module() in br_ioctl_call(), so we move
1., 2., and 4. to br_ioctl_stub().

Note that 2. is also checked later in add_del_if(), but it's better
performed before RTNL.

SIOCBRADDIF and SIOCBRDELIF have been processed in dev_ioctl() since
the pre-git era, and there seems to be no specific reason to process
them there.

Previous commit 8b5c171bb3dc ("neigh: new unresolved queue limits")
introduces new netlink attribute NDTPA_QUEUE_LENBYTES to represent
approximative value for deprecated QUEUE_LEN. However, it forgot to add
the associated nla_policy in nl_ntbl_parm_policy array. Fix it with one
simple NLA_U32 type policy.

<title>net: lwtunnel: fix recursion loops</title>

<id>986ffb3a57c5650fb8bf6d59a8f0f07046abfeb6</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch acts as a parachute, catch all solution, by detecting
recursion loops in lwtunnel users and taking care of them (e.g., a loop
between routes, a loop within the same route, etc). In general, such
loops are the consequence of pathological configurations. Each lwtunnel
user is still free to catch such loops early and do whatever they want
with them. It will be the case in a separate patch for, e.g., seg6 and
seg6_local, in order to provide drop reasons and update statistics.
Another example of a lwtunnel user taking care of loops is ioam6, which
has valid use cases that include loops (e.g., inline mode), and which is
addressed by the next patch in this series. Overall, this patch acts as
a last resort to catch loops and drop packets, since we don't want to
leak something unintentionally because of a pathological configuration
in lwtunnels.

The solution in this patch reuses dev_xmit_recursion(),
dev_xmit_recursion_inc(), and dev_xmit_recursion_dec(), which seems fine
considering the context.

<title>net: devmem: do not WARN conditionally after netdev_rx_queue_restart()</title>

When devmem socket is closed, netdev_rx_queue_restart() is called to
reset queue by the net_devmem_unbind_dmabuf(). But callback may return
-ENETDOWN if the interface is down because queues are already freed
when the interface is down so queue reset is not needed.
So, it should not warn if the return value is -ENETDOWN.

<title>netpoll: hold rcu read lock in __netpoll_send_skb()</title>

The function __netpoll_send_skb() is being invoked without holding the
RCU read lock. This oversight triggers a warning message when
CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST is enabled:

	net/core/netpoll.c:330 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!

	 netpoll_send_skb
	 netpoll_send_udp
	 write_ext_msg
	 console_flush_all
	 console_unlock
	 vprintk_emit

To prevent npinfo from disappearing unexpectedly, ensure that
__netpoll_send_skb() is protected with the RCU read lock.

<title>netmem: prevent TX of unreadable skbs</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently on stable trees we have support for netmem/devmem RX but not
TX. It is not safe to forward/redirect an RX unreadable netmem packet
into the device's TX path, as the device may call dma-mapping APIs on
dma addrs that should not be passed to it.

Fix this by preventing the xmit of unreadable skbs.

Tested by configuring tc redirect:

sudo tc qdisc add dev eth1 ingress
sudo tc filter add dev eth1 ingress protocol ip prio 1 flower ip_proto \
	tcp src_ip 192.168.1.12 action mirred egress redirect dev eth1

Before, I see unreadable skbs in the driver's TX path passed to dma
mapping APIs.

After, I don't see unreadable skbs in the driver's TX path passed to dma
mapping APIs.
