[ Upstream commit 8c83f2df9c6578ea4c5b940d8238ad8a41b87e9e ]

Configuration check to accept source route IP options should be made on
the incoming netdevice when the skb-&gt;dev is an l3mdev master. The route
lookup for the source route next hop also needs the incoming netdev.

v2-&gt;v3:
- Simplify by passing the original netdevice down the stack (per David
  Ahern).

ip_route_input_rcu expects the original ingress device (e.g., for
proper multicast handling). The skb-&gt;dev can be changed by l3mdev_ip_rcv,
so dev needs to be saved prior to calling it. This was the behavior prior
to the listify changes.

In certain cases, pskb_trim_rcsum() may change skb pointers.
Reinitialize header pointers afterwards to avoid potential
use-after-frees. Add a note in the documentation of
pskb_trim_rcsum(). Found by KASAN.

Several conflicts, seemingly all over the place.

I used Stephen Rothwell's sample resolutions for many of these, if not
just to double check my own work, so definitely the credit largely
goes to him.

The NFP conflict consisted of a bug fix (moving operations
past the rhashtable operation) while chaning the initial
argument in the function call in the moved code.

The net/dsa/master.c conflict had to do with a bug fix intermixing of
making dsa_master_set_mtu() static with the fixing of the tagging
attribute location.

cls_flower had a conflict because the dup reject fix from Or
overlapped with the addition of port range classifiction.

__set_phy_supported()'s conflict was relatively easy to resolve
because Andrew fixed it in both trees, so it was just a matter
of taking the net-next copy.  Or at least I think it was :-)

Joe Stringer's fix to the handling of netns id 0 in bpf_sk_lookup()
intermixed with changes on how the sdif and caller_net are calculated
in these code paths in net-next.

The remaining BPF conflicts were largely about the addition of the
__bpf_md_ptr stuff in 'net' overlapping with adjustments and additions
to the relevant data structure where the MD pointer macros are used.

list_del() leaves the skb-&gt;next pointer poisoned, which can then lead to
 a crash in e.g. OVS forwarding.  For example, setting up an OVS VXLAN
 forwarding bridge on sfc as per:

It documents what is happening, and eliminates the spurious list
pointer poisoning.

In the long term, in order to get proper list head debugging, we
might want to use the list poison value as the indicator that
an SKB is a singleton and not on a list.

It documents what is happening, and eliminates the spurious list
pointer poisoning.

An SKB is not on a list if skb-&gt;next is NULL.

Codify this convention into a helper function and use it
where we are dequeueing an SKB and need to mark it as such.

<title>net: ipv4: fix listify ip_rcv_finish in case of forwarding</title>

In commit 5fa12739a53d ("net: ipv4: listify ip_rcv_finish") calling
dst_input(skb) was split-out.  The ip_sublist_rcv_finish() just calls
dst_input(skb) in a loop.

The problem is that ip_sublist_rcv_finish() forgot to remove the SKB
from the list before invoking dst_input().  Further more we need to
clear skb-&gt;next as other parts of the network stack use another kind
of SKB lists for xmit_more (see dev_hard_start_xmit).

A crash occurs if e.g. dst_input() invoke ip_forward(), which calls
dst_output()/ip_output() that eventually calls __dev_queue_xmit() +
sch_direct_xmit(), and a crash occurs in validate_xmit_skb_list().

This patch only fixes the crash, but there is a huge potential for
a performance boost if we can pass an SKB-list through to ip_forward.

<title>net: ipv4: fix list processing on L3 slave devices</title>

If we have an L3 master device, l3mdev_ip_rcv() will steal the skb, but
 we were returning NET_RX_SUCCESS from ip_rcv_finish_core() which meant
 that ip_list_rcv_finish() would keep it on the list.  Instead let's
 move the l3mdev_ip_rcv() call into the caller, so that our response to
 a steal can be different in the single packet path (return
 NET_RX_SUCCESS) and the list path (forget this packet and continue).
