[ Upstream commit b50edd7812852d989f2ef09dcfc729690f54a42d ]

I noticed tcpdump was giving funky timestamps for locally
generated SYNACK messages on loopback interface.

11:42:46.938990 IP 127.0.0.1.48245 &gt; 127.0.0.2.23850: S
945476042:945476042(0) win 43690 &lt;mss 65495,nop,nop,sackOK,nop,wscale 7&gt;

20:28:58.502209 IP 127.0.0.2.23850 &gt; 127.0.0.1.48245: S
3160535375:3160535375(0) ack 945476043 win 43690 &lt;mss
65495,nop,nop,sackOK,nop,wscale 7&gt;

This is because we need to clear skb-&gt;tstamp before
entering lower stack, otherwise net_timestamp_check()
does not set skb-&gt;tstamp.

[ Upstream commit b736a623bd099cdf5521ca9bd03559f3bc7fa31c ]

handle_offloads() calls skb_reset_inner_headers() to store
the layer pointers to the encapsulated packet. However, we
currently push the vlag tag (if there is one) onto the packet
afterwards. This changes the MAC header for the encapsulated
packet but it is not reflected in skb-&gt;inner_mac_header, which
breaks GSO and drivers which attempt to use this for encapsulation
offloads.

We have to hold rtnl lock for fib_rules_unregister()
otherwise the following race could happen:

fib_rules_unregister():	fib_nl_delrule():
...				...
...				ops = lookup_rules_ops();
list_del_rcu(&amp;ops-&gt;list);
				list_for_each_entry(ops-&gt;rules) {
fib_rules_cleanup_ops(ops);	  ...
  list_del_rcu();		  list_del_rcu();
				}

Note, net-&gt;rules_mod_lock is actually not needed at all,
either upper layer netns code or rtnl lock guarantees
we are safe.

<title>tcp: fix FRTO undo on cumulative ACK of SACKed range</title>

<id>666b805150efd62f05810ff0db08f44a2370c937</id>
<content type='text'>
On processing cumulative ACKs, the FRTO code was not checking the
SACKed bit, meaning that there could be a spurious FRTO undo on a
cumulative ACK of a previously SACKed skb.

The FRTO code should only consider a cumulative ACK to indicate that
an original/unretransmitted skb is newly ACKed if the skb was not yet
SACKed.

The effect of the spurious FRTO undo would typically be to make the
connection think that all previously-sent packets were in flight when
they really weren't, leading to a stall and an RTO.

to code reading sk-&gt;sk_rx_dst twice, once for the test and once for
the argument of ip6_dst_check() (dst_check() is inline). This allows
ip6_dst_check() to be called with null first argument, causing a crash.

Netfilter fixes for net

The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for your net tree,
they are:

1) Fix missing initialization of tuple structure in nfnetlink_cthelper
   to avoid mismatches when looking up to attach userspace helpers to
   flows, from Ian Wilson.

2) Fix potential crash in nft_hash when we hit -EAGAIN in
   nft_hash_walk(), from Herbert Xu.

3) We don't need to indicate the hook information to update the
   basechain default policy in nf_tables.

4) Restore tracing over nfnetlink_log due to recent rework to
   accomodate logging infrastructure into nf_tables.

5) Fix wrong IP6T_INV_PROTO check in xt_TPROXY.

6) Set IP6T_F_PROTO flag in nft_compat so we can use SYNPROXY6 and
   REJECT6 from xt over nftables.

Since fab4085 ("netfilter: log: nf_log_packet() as real unified
interface"), the loginfo structure that is passed to nf_log_packet() is
used to explicitly indicate the logger type you want to use.

This is a problem for people tracing rules through nfnetlink_log since
packets are always routed to the NF_LOG_TYPE logger after the
aforementioned patch.

We can fix this by removing the trace loginfo structures, but that still
changes the log level from 4 to 5 for tracing messages and there may be
someone relying on this outthere. So let's just introduce a new
nf_log_trace() function that restores the former behaviour.
