[ Upstream commit 081a0e3b0d4c061419d3f4679dec9f68725b17e4 ]

net-&gt;dev_base_seq and ipv4.dev_addr_genid are monotonically increasing.

If we XOR their values, we could miss to detect if both values
were changed with the same amount.

<title>net: ipv4: fix one memleak in __inet_del_ifa()</title>

I got the below warning when do fuzzing test:
unregister_netdevice: waiting for bond0 to become free. Usage count = 2

It can be repoduced via:

ip link add bond0 type bond
sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.bond0.promote_secondaries=1
ip addr add 4.117.174.103/0 scope 0x40 dev bond0
ip addr add 192.168.100.111/255.255.255.254 scope 0 dev bond0
ip addr add 0.0.0.4/0 scope 0x40 secondary dev bond0
ip addr del 4.117.174.103/0 scope 0x40 dev bond0
ip link delete bond0 type bond

In this reproduction test case, an incorrect 'last_prim' is found in
__inet_del_ifa(), as a result, the secondary address(0.0.0.4/0 scope 0x40)
is lost. The memory of the secondary address is leaked and the reference of
in_device and net_device is leaked.

Fix this problem:
Look for 'last_prim' starting at location of the deleted IP and inserting
the promoted IP into the location of 'last_prim'.

Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain:
 "Long ago we set out to remove the kitchen sink on kernel/sysctl.c
  arrays and placings sysctls to their own sybsystem or file to help
  avoid merge conflicts. Matthew Wilcox pointed out though that if we're
  going to do that we might as well also *save* space while at it and
  try to remove the extra last sysctl entry added at the end of each
  array, a sentintel, instead of bloating the kernel by adding a new
  sentinel with each array moved.

  Doing that was not so trivial, and has required slowing down the moves
  of kernel/sysctl.c arrays and measuring the impact on size by each new
  move.

  The complex part of the effort to help reduce the size of each sysctl
  is being done by the patient work of el señor Don Joel Granados. A lot
  of this is truly painful code refactoring and testing and then trying
  to measure the savings of each move and removing the sentinels.
  Although Joel already has code which does most of this work,
  experience with sysctl moves in the past shows is we need to be
  careful due to the slew of odd build failures that are possible due to
  the amount of random Kconfig options sysctls use.

  To that end Joel's work is split by first addressing the major
  housekeeping needed to remove the sentinels, which is part of this
  merge request. The rest of the work to actually remove the sentinels
  will be done later in future kernel releases.

  The preliminary math is showing this will all help reduce the overall
  build time size of the kernel and run time memory consumed by the
  kernel by about ~64 bytes per array where we are able to remove each
  sentinel in the future. That also means there is no more bloating the
  kernel with the extra ~64 bytes per array moved as no new sentinels
  are created"

Add extack info for IPv4 address add/delete, which would be useful for
users to understand the problem without having to read kernel code.

No extack message for the ifa_local checking in __inet_insert_ifa() as
it has been checked in find_matching_ifa().

Move from register_net_sysctl to register_net_sysctl_sz for all the
networking related files. Do this while making sure to mirror the NULL
assignments with a table_size of zero for the unprivileged users.

We need to move to the new function in preparation for when we change
SIZE_MAX to ARRAY_SIZE() in the register_net_sysctl macro. Failing to do
so would erroneously allow ARRAY_SIZE() to be called on a pointer. We
hold off the SIZE_MAX to ARRAY_SIZE change until we have migrated all
the relevant net sysctl registering functions to register_net_sysctl_sz
in subsequent commits.

An additional size function was added to the following files in order to
calculate the size of an array that is defined in another file:
    include/net/ipv6.h
    net/ipv6/icmp.c
    net/ipv6/route.c
    net/ipv6/sysctl_net_ipv6.c

<title>net: ipv4: Allow changing IPv4 address protocol</title>

When IP address protocol field was added in commit 47f0bd503210 ("net: Add
new protocol attribute to IP addresses"), the semantics included the
ability to change the protocol for IPv6 addresses, but not for IPv4
addresses. It seems this was not deliberate, but rather by accident.

A userspace that wants to change the protocol of an address might drop and
recreate the address, but that disrupts routing and is just impractical.

So in this patch, when an IPv4 address is replaced (through RTM_NEWADDR
request with NLM_F_REPLACE flag), update the proto at the address to the
one given in the request, or zero if none is given. This matches the
behavior of IPv6. Previously, any new value given was simply ignored.

<title>net: devinet: Reduce refcount before grace period</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently, the inetdev_destroy() function waits for an RCU grace period
before decrementing the refcount and freeing memory. This causes a delay
with a new RCU configuration that tries to save power, which results in the
network interface disappearing later than expected. The resulting delay
causes test failures on ChromeOS.

Refactor the code such that the refcount is freed before the grace period
and memory is freed after. With this a ChromeOS network test passes that
does 'ip netns del' and polls for an interface disappearing, now passes.

Netdev reference helpers have a dev_ prefix for historic
reasons. Renaming the old helpers would be too much churn
but we can rename the tracking ones which are relatively
recent and should be the default for new code.

Rename:
 dev_hold_track()    -&gt; netdev_hold()
 dev_put_track()     -&gt; netdev_put()
 dev_replace_track() -&gt; netdev_ref_replace()

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "Core
  ----

   - Support TCPv6 segmentation offload with super-segments larger than
     64k bytes using the IPv6 Jumbogram extension header (AKA BIG TCP).

   - Generalize skb freeing deferral to per-cpu lists, instead of
     per-socket lists.

   - Add a netdev statistic for packets dropped due to L2 address
     mismatch (rx_otherhost_dropped).

   - Continue work annotating skb drop reasons.

   - Accept alternative netdev names (ALT_IFNAME) in more netlink
     requests.

   - Add VLAN support for AF_PACKET SOCK_RAW GSO.

   - Allow receiving skb mark from the socket as a cmsg.

   - Enable memcg accounting for veth queues, sysctl tables and IPv6.

  BPF
  ---

   - Add libbpf support for User Statically-Defined Tracing (USDTs).

   - Speed up symbol resolution for kprobes multi-link attachments.

   - Support storing typed pointers to referenced and unreferenced
     objects in BPF maps.

   - Add support for BPF link iterator.

   - Introduce access to remote CPU map elements in BPF per-cpu map.

   - Allow middle-of-the-road settings for the
     kernel.unprivileged_bpf_disabled sysctl.

   - Implement basic types of dynamic pointers e.g. to allow for
     dynamically sized ringbuf reservations without extra memory copies.

  Protocols
  ---------

   - Retire port only listening_hash table, add a second bind table
     hashed by port and address. Avoid linear list walk when binding to
     very popular ports (e.g. 443).

   - Add bridge FDB bulk flush filtering support allowing user space to
     remove all FDB entries matching a condition.

   - Introduce accept_unsolicited_na sysctl for IPv6 to implement
     router-side changes for RFC9131.

   - Support for MPTCP path manager in user space.

   - Add MPTCP support for fallback to regular TCP for connections that
     have never connected additional subflows or transmitted
     out-of-sequence data (partial support for RFC8684 fallback).

   - Avoid races in MPTCP-level window tracking, stabilize and improve
     throughput.

   - Support lockless operation of GRE tunnels with seq numbers enabled.

   - WiFi support for host based BSS color collision detection.

   - Add support for SO_TXTIME/SCM_TXTIME on CAN sockets.

   - Support transmission w/o flow control in CAN ISOTP (ISO 15765-2).

   - Support zero-copy Tx with TLS 1.2 crypto offload (sendfile).

   - Allow matching on the number of VLAN tags via tc-flower.

   - Add tracepoint for tcp_set_ca_state().

  Driver API
  ----------

   - Improve error reporting from classifier and action offload.

   - Add support for listing line cards in switches (devlink).

   - Add helpers for reporting page pool statistics with ethtool -S.

   - Add support for reading clock cycles when using PTP virtual clocks,
     instead of having the driver convert to time before reporting. This
     makes it possible to report time from different vclocks.

   - Support configuring low-latency Tx descriptor push via ethtool.

   - Separate Clause 22 and Clause 45 MDIO accesses more explicitly.
