[ Upstream commit e56b8ce363a36fb7b74b80aaa5cc9084f2c908b4 ]

Attempt to make cryptic TCP seq number error messages clearer by
(1) identifying the source of the message as "TCP", (2) identifying the
errors as "seq # bug", and (3) grouping the field identifiers and values
by separating them with commas.

E.g., the following message is changed from:

recvmsg bug 2: copied 73BCB6CD seq 70F17CBE rcvnxt 73BCB9AA fl 0
WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 1501 at /linux/net/ipv4/tcp.c:1881 tcp_recvmsg+0x649/0xb90

to:

TCP recvmsg seq # bug 2: copied 73BCB6CD, seq 70F17CBE, rcvnxt 73BCB9AA, fl 0
WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 1501 at /linux/net/ipv4/tcp.c:2011 tcp_recvmsg+0x694/0xba0

[ Upstream commit f6f2a4a2eb92bc73671204198bb2f8ab53ff59fb ]

Setting the low threshold to 0 has no effect on frags allocation,
we need to clear high_thresh instead.

The code was pre-existent to commit 648700f76b03 ("inet: frags:
use rhashtables for reassembly units"), but before the above,
such assignment had a different role: prevent concurrent eviction
from the worker and the netns cleanup helper.

[ Upstream commit d376bef9c29b3c65aeee4e785fffcd97ef0a9a81 ]

nft_compat relies on xt_request_find_match to increment
refcount of the module that provides the match/target.

The (builtin) icmp matches did't set the module owner so it
was possible to rmmod ip(6)tables while icmp extensions were still in use.

[ Upstream commit 4672694bd4f1aebdab0ad763ae4716e89cb15221 ]

ip_frag_queue() might call pskb_pull() on one skb that
is already in the fragment queue.

We need to take care of possible truesize change, or we
might have an imbalance of the netns frags memory usage.

IPv6 is immune to this bug, because RFC5722, Section 4,
amended by Errata ID 3089 states :

  When reassembling an IPv6 datagram, if
  one or more its constituent fragments is determined to be an
  overlapping fragment, the entire datagram (and any constituent
  fragments) MUST be silently discarded.

[ Upstream commit 56e2c94f055d328f5f6b0a5c1721cca2f2d4e0a1 ]

We currently check current frags memory usage only when
a new frag queue is created. This allows attackers to first
consume the memory budget (default : 4 MB) creating thousands
of frag queues, then sending tiny skbs to exceed high_thresh
limit by 2 to 3 order of magnitude.

Note that before commit 648700f76b03 ("inet: frags: use rhashtables
for reassembly units"), work queue could be starved under DOS,
getting no cpu cycles.
After commit 648700f76b03, only the per frag queue timer can eventually
remove an incomplete frag queue and its skbs.

<title>tcp: ack immediately when a cwr packet arrives</title>

[ Upstream commit 9aee40006190a3cda9a4d2dbae71e92617c8c362 ]

We observed high 99 and 99.9% latencies when doing RPCs with DCTCP. The
problem is triggered when the last packet of a request arrives CE
marked. The reply will carry the ECE mark causing TCP to shrink its cwnd
to 1 (because there are no packets in flight). When the 1st packet of
the next request arrives, the ACK was sometimes delayed even though it
is CWR marked, adding up to 40ms to the RPC latency.

This patch insures that CWR marked data packets arriving will be acked
immediately.

Packetdrill script to reproduce the problem:

0.000 socket(..., SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP) = 3
0.000 setsockopt(3, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, [1], 4) = 0

[ Upstream commit 15ecbe94a45ef88491ca459b26efdd02f91edb6d ]

Larry Brakmo proposal ( https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/935233/
tcp: force cwnd at least 2 in tcp_cwnd_reduction) made us rethink
about our recent patch removing ~16 quick acks after ECN events.

tcp_enter_quickack_mode(sk, 1) makes sure one immediate ack is sent,
but in the case the sender cwnd was lowered to 1, we do not want
to have a delayed ack for the next packet we will receive.
