[ Upstream commit 703133de331a7a7df47f31fb9de51dc6f68a9de8 ]

If local fragmentation is allowed, then ip_select_ident() and
ip_select_ident_more() need to generate unique IDs to ensure
correct defragmentation on the peer.

For example, if IPsec (tunnel mode) has to encrypt large skbs
that have local_df bit set, then all IP fragments that belonged
to different ESP datagrams would have used the same identificator.
If one of these IP fragments would get lost or reordered, then
peer could possibly stitch together wrong IP fragments that did
not belong to the same datagram. This would lead to a packet loss
or data corruption.

[ Upstream commit ab43ed8b7490cb387782423ecf74aeee7237e591 ]

icmp_filter() should not modify its input, or else its caller
would need to recompute ip_hdr() if skb-&gt;head is reallocated.

Use skb_header_pointer() instead of pskb_may_pull() and
change the prototype to make clear both sk and skb are const.

These files are non modular, but need to export symbols using
the macros now living in export.h -- call out the include so
that things won't break when we remove the implicit presence

The raw sockets can provide source address for
routing but their privileges are not considered. We
can provide non-local source address, make sure the
FLOWI_FLAG_ANYSRC flag is set if socket has privileges
for this, i.e. based on hdrincl (IP_HDRINCL) and
transparent flags.

<title>net: convert %p usage to %pK</title>

<id>71338aa7d050c86d8765cd36e46be514fb0ebbce</id>
<content type='text'>
The %pK format specifier is designed to hide exposed kernel pointers,
specifically via /proc interfaces.  Exposing these pointers provides an
easy target for kernel write vulnerabilities, since they reveal the
locations of writable structures containing easily triggerable function
pointers.  The behavior of %pK depends on the kptr_restrict sysctl.

If kptr_restrict is set to 0, no deviation from the standard %p behavior
occurs.  If kptr_restrict is set to 1, the default, if the current user
(intended to be a reader via seq_printf(), etc.) does not have CAP_SYSLOG
(currently in the LSM tree), kernel pointers using %pK are printed as 0's.
 If kptr_restrict is set to 2, kernel pointers using %pK are printed as
0's regardless of privileges.  Replacing with 0's was chosen over the
default "(null)", which cannot be parsed by userland %p, which expects
"(nil)".

The supporting code for kptr_restrict and %pK are currently in the -mm
tree.  This patch converts users of %p in net/ to %pK.  Cases of printing
pointers to the syslog are not covered, since this would eliminate useful
information for postmortem debugging and the reading of the syslog is
already optionally protected by the dmesg_restrict sysctl.

<title>inet: add RCU protection to inet-&gt;opt</title>

We lack proper synchronization to manipulate inet-&gt;opt ip_options

Problem is ip_make_skb() calls ip_setup_cork() and
ip_setup_cork() possibly makes a copy of ipc-&gt;opt (struct ip_options),
without any protection against another thread manipulating inet-&gt;opt.

Another thread can change inet-&gt;opt pointer and free old one under us.

Use RCU to protect inet-&gt;opt (changed to inet-&gt;inet_opt).

Instead of handling atomic refcounts, just copy ip_options when
necessary, to avoid cache line dirtying.

We cant insert an rcu_head in struct ip_options since its included in
skb-&gt;cb[], so this patch is large because I had to introduce a new
ip_options_rcu structure.
