commit 3f649ab728cda8038259d8f14492fe400fbab911 upstream.

Using uninitialized_var() is dangerous as it papers over real bugs[1]
(or can in the future), and suppresses unrelated compiler warnings
(e.g. "unused variable"). If the compiler thinks it is uninitialized,
either simply initialize the variable or make compiler changes.

In preparation for removing[2] the[3] macro[4], remove all remaining
needless uses with the following script:

git grep '\buninitialized_var\b' | cut -d: -f1 | sort -u | \
	xargs perl -pi -e \
		's/\buninitialized_var\(([^\)]+)\)/\1/g;
		 s:\s*/\* (GCC be quiet|to make compiler happy) \*/$::g;'

drivers/video/fbdev/riva/riva_hw.c was manually tweaked to avoid
pathological white-space.

No outstanding warnings were found building allmodconfig with GCC 9.3.0
for x86_64, i386, arm64, arm, powerpc, powerpc64le, s390x, mips, sparc64,
alpha, and m68k.

[ 4f16d25c68ec844299a4df6ecbb0234eaf88a935 ]

This new function combines the netlink register attribute parser
and the load validation function.

This update requires to replace:

	enum nft_registers      sreg:8;

in many of the expression private areas otherwise compiler complains
with:

	error: cannot take address of bit-field ‘sreg’

when passing the register field as reference.

[ Upstream commit 4a02426787bf024dafdb79b362285ee325de3f5e ]

The xtables packet traverser performs an unconditional local_bh_disable(),
but the nf_tables evaluation loop does not.

Functions that are called from either xtables or nftables must assume
that they can be called in process context.

inet_twsk_deschedule_put() assumes that no softirq interrupt can occur.
If tproxy is used from nf_tables its possible that we'll deadlock
trying to aquire a lock already held in process context.

Add a small helper that takes care of this and use it.

[ Upstream commit d94a69cb2cfa77294921aae9afcfb866e723a2da ]

The issue takes place in one error path of clusterip_tg_check(). When
memcmp() returns nonzero, the function simply returns the error code,
forgetting to decrease the reference count of a clusterip_config
object, which is bumped earlier by clusterip_config_find_get(). This
may incur reference count leak.

Fix this issue by decrementing the refcount of the object in specific
error path.

commit d163a925ebbc6eb5b562b0f1d72c7e817aa75c40 upstream.

Same problem that also existed in iptables/ip(6)tables, when
arptable_filter is removed there is no longer a wait period before the
table/ruleset is free'd.

Unregister the hook in pre_exit, then remove the table in the exit
function.
This used to work correctly because the old nf_hook_unregister API
did unconditional synchronize_net.

The per-net hook unregister function uses call_rcu instead.

This reverts commit 443d6e86f821a165fae3fc3fc13086d27ac140b1.

This (and the following) patch basically re-implemented the RCU
mechanisms of patch 784544739a25. That patch was replaced because of the
performance problems that it created when replacing tables. Now, we have
the same issue: the call to synchronize_rcu() makes replacing tables
slower by as much as an order of magnitude.

[ Upstream commit d3d40f237480abf3268956daf18cdc56edd32834 ]

This reverts commit cc00bcaa589914096edef7fb87ca5cee4a166b5c.

This (and the preceding) patch basically re-implemented the RCU
mechanisms of patch 784544739a25. That patch was replaced because of the
performance problems that it created when replacing tables. Now, we have
the same issue: the call to synchronize_rcu() makes replacing tables
slower by as much as an order of magnitude.

Prior to using RCU a script calling "iptables" approx. 200 times was
taking 1.16s. With RCU this increased to 11.59s.

Revert these patches and fix the issue in a different way.

commit 2e5a6266fbb11ae93c468dfecab169aca9c27b43 upstream.

RT_TOS() only masks one of the two ECN bits. Therefore rpfilter_mt()
treats Not-ECT or ECT(1) packets in a different way than those with
ECT(0) or CE.

Reproducer:

  Create two netns, connected with a veth:
  $ ip netns add ns0
  $ ip netns add ns1
  $ ip link add name veth01 netns ns0 type veth peer name veth10 netns ns1
  $ ip -netns ns0 link set dev veth01 up
  $ ip -netns ns1 link set dev veth10 up
  $ ip -netns ns0 address add 192.0.2.10/32 dev veth01
  $ ip -netns ns1 address add 192.0.2.11/32 dev veth10

  Add a route to ns1 in ns0:
  $ ip -netns ns0 route add 192.0.2.11/32 dev veth01

  In ns1, only packets with TOS 4 can be routed to ns0:
  $ ip -netns ns1 route add 192.0.2.10/32 tos 4 dev veth10

  Ping from ns0 to ns1 works regardless of the ECN bits, as long as TOS
  is 4:
  $ ip netns exec ns0 ping -Q 4 192.0.2.11   # TOS 4, Not-ECT
    ... 0% packet loss ...
  $ ip netns exec ns0 ping -Q 5 192.0.2.11   # TOS 4, ECT(1)
    ... 0% packet loss ...
  $ ip netns exec ns0 ping -Q 6 192.0.2.11   # TOS 4, ECT(0)
    ... 0% packet loss ...
  $ ip netns exec ns0 ping -Q 7 192.0.2.11   # TOS 4, CE
    ... 0% packet loss ...

  Now use iptable's rpfilter module in ns1:
  $ ip netns exec ns1 iptables-legacy -t raw -A PREROUTING -m rpfilter --invert -j DROP

  Not-ECT and ECT(1) packets still pass:
  $ ip netns exec ns0 ping -Q 4 192.0.2.11   # TOS 4, Not-ECT
    ... 0% packet loss ...
  $ ip netns exec ns0 ping -Q 5 192.0.2.11   # TOS 4, ECT(1)
    ... 0% packet loss ...

  But ECT(0) and ECN packets are dropped:
  $ ip netns exec ns0 ping -Q 6 192.0.2.11   # TOS 4, ECT(0)
    ... 100% packet loss ...
  $ ip netns exec ns0 ping -Q 7 192.0.2.11   # TOS 4, CE
    ... 100% packet loss ...

After this patch, rpfilter doesn't drop ECT(0) and CE packets anymore.
