<id>41b4bd986f86331efc599b9a3f5fb86ad92e9af9</id>
<content type='text'>
In case we can't find a -&gt;dumpit callback for the requested
(family,type) pair, we fall back to (PF_UNSPEC,type). In effect, we're
in the same situation as if userspace had requested a PF_UNSPEC
dump. For RTM_GETROUTE, that handler is rtnl_dump_all, which calls all
the registered RTM_GETROUTE handlers.

The requested table id may or may not exist for all of those
families. commit ae677bbb4441 ("net: Don't return invalid table id
error when dumping all families") fixed the problem when userspace
explicitly requests a PF_UNSPEC dump, but missed the fallback case.

For example, when we pass ipv6.disable=1 to a kernel with
CONFIG_IP_MROUTE=y and CONFIG_IP_MROUTE_MULTIPLE_TABLES=y,
the (PF_INET6, RTM_GETROUTE) handler isn't registered, so we end up in
rtnl_dump_all, and listing IPv6 routes will unexpectedly print:

  # ip -6 r
  Error: ipv4: MR table does not exist.
  Dump terminated

commit ae677bbb4441 introduced the dump_all_families variable, which
gets set when userspace requests a PF_UNSPEC dump. However, we can't
simply set the family to PF_UNSPEC in rtnetlink_rcv_msg in the
fallback case to get dump_all_families == true, because some messages
types (for example RTM_GETRULE and RTM_GETNEIGH) only register the
PF_UNSPEC handler and use the family to filter in the kernel what is
dumped to userspace. We would then export more entries, that userspace
would have to filter. iproute does that, but other programs may not.

Instead, this patch removes dump_all_families and updates the
RTM_GETROUTE handlers to check if the family that is being dumped is
their own. When it's not, which covers both the intentional PF_UNSPEC
dumps (as dump_all_families did) and the fallback case, ignore the
missing table id error.

During the initialization process, ipmr_new_table() is called
to create new tables which in turn calls ipmr_get_table() which
traverses net-&gt;ipv4.mr_tables without holding the writer lock.
However, this is safe to do so as no tables exist at this time.
Hence add a suitable lockdep expression to silence the following
false-positive warning:

but under the protection of rtnl_mutex. Hence, add the

And by hand:

net/ipv6/ip6_fib.c has a fallthrough comment outside of an #ifdef block
that causes gcc to emit a warning if converted in-place.

So move the new fallthrough; inside the containing #ifdef/#endif too.

<title>ipmr: Fix skb headroom in ipmr_get_route().</title>

In route.c, inet_rtm_getroute_build_skb() creates an skb with no
headroom. This skb is then used by inet_rtm_getroute() which may pass
it to rt_fill_info() and, from there, to ipmr_get_route(). The later
might try to reuse this skb by cloning it and prepending an IPv4
header. But since the original skb has no headroom, skb_push() triggers
skb_under_panic():

Actually the original skb used to have enough headroom, but the
reserve_skb() call was lost with the introduction of
inet_rtm_getroute_build_skb() by commit 404eb77ea766 ("ipv4: support
sport, dport and ip_proto in RTM_GETROUTE").

We could reserve some headroom again in inet_rtm_getroute_build_skb(),
but this function shouldn't be responsible for handling the special
case of ipmr_get_route(). Let's handle that directly in
ipmr_get_route() by calling skb_realloc_headroom() instead of
skb_clone().

Actually the original skb used to have enough headroom, but the
reserve_skb() call was lost with the introduction of
inet_rtm_getroute_build_skb() by commit 404eb77ea766 ("ipv4: support
sport, dport and ip_proto in RTM_GETROUTE").

We could reserve some headroom again in inet_rtm_getroute_build_skb(),
but this function shouldn't be responsible for handling the special
case of ipmr_get_route(). Let's handle that directly in
ipmr_get_route() by calling skb_realloc_headroom() instead of
skb_clone().

Fixes: 404eb77ea766 ("ipv4: support sport, dport and ip_proto in RTM_GETROUTE")

Since errors are propagated all the way up to the caller, propagate
possible extack of the caller all the way down to the notifier block
callback.

<title>netfilter: drop bridge nf reset from nf_reset</title>

commit 174e23810cd31
("sk_buff: drop all skb extensions on free and skb scrubbing") made napi
recycle always drop skb extensions.  The additional skb_ext_del() that is
performed via nf_reset on napi skb recycle is not needed anymore.

Most nf_reset() calls in the stack are there so queued skb won't block
'rmmod nf_conntrack' indefinitely.

This removes the skb_ext_del from nf_reset, and renames it to a more
fitting nf_reset_ct().

In a few selected places, add a call to skb_ext_reset to make sure that
no active extensions remain.

I am submitting this for "net", because we're still early in the release
cycle.  The patch applies to net-next too, but I think the rename causes
needless divergence between those trees.

This is a re-post of previous patch wrote by David Miller[1].

Phil Karn reported[2] that on busy networks with lots of unresolved
multicast routing entries, the creation of new multicast group routes
can be extremely slow and unreliable.

The reason is we hard-coded multicast route entries with unresolved source
addresses(cache_resolve_queue_len) to 10. If some multicast route never
resolves and the unresolved source addresses increased, there will
be no ability to create new multicast route cache.

To resolve this issue, we need either add a sysctl entry to make the
cache_resolve_queue_len configurable, or just remove cache_resolve_queue_len
limit directly, as we already have the socket receive queue limits of mrouted
socket, pointed by David.

&gt;From my side, I'd perfer to remove the cache_resolve_queue_len limit instead
of creating two more(IPv4 and IPv6 version) sysctl entry.

[2] https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/21/343

v3: instead of remove cache_resolve_queue_len totally, let's only remove
the hard code limit when allocate the unresolved cache, as Eric Dumazet
suggested, so we don't need to re-count it in other places.

v2: hold the mfc_unres_lock while walking the unresolved list in
queue_count(), as Nikolay Aleksandrov remind.
