[ Upstream commit 4a06fa67c4da20148803525151845276cdb995c1 ]

Commit 2efd4fca703a ("ip: in cmsg IP(V6)_ORIGDSTADDR call
pskb_may_pull") avoided a read beyond the end of the skb linear
segment by calling pskb_may_pull.

That function can trigger a BUG_ON in pskb_expand_head if the skb is
shared, which it is when when peeking. It can also return ENOMEM.

Avoid both by switching to safer skb_header_pointer.

<title>tcp: change txhash on SYN-data timeout</title>

[ Upstream commit c5715b8fabfca0ef85903f8bad2189940ed41cc8 ]

Previously upon SYN timeouts the sender recomputes the txhash to
try a different path. However this does not apply on the initial
timeout of SYN-data (active Fast Open). Therefore an active IPv6
Fast Open connection may incur one second RTO penalty to take on
a new path after the second SYN retransmission uses a new flow label.

This patch removes this undesirable behavior so Fast Open changes
the flow label just like the regular connections. This also helps
avoid falsely disabling Fast Open on the sender which triggers
after two consecutive SYN timeouts on Fast Open.

<title>ip: validate header length on virtual device xmit</title>

[ Upstream commit cb9f1b783850b14cbd7f87d061d784a666dfba1f ]

KMSAN detected read beyond end of buffer in vti and sit devices when
passing truncated packets with PF_PACKET. The issue affects additional
ip tunnel devices.

Extend commit 76c0ddd8c3a6 ("ip6_tunnel: be careful when accessing the
inner header") and commit ccfec9e5cb2d ("ip_tunnel: be careful when
accessing the inner header").

Move the check to a separate helper and call at the start of each
ndo_start_xmit function in net/ipv4 and net/ipv6.

Minor changes:
- convert dev_kfree_skb to kfree_skb on error path,
  as dev_kfree_skb calls consume_skb which is not for error paths.
- use pskb_network_may_pull even though that is pedantic here,
  as the same as pskb_may_pull for devices without llheaders.
- do not cache ipv6 hdrs if used only once
  (unsafe across pskb_may_pull, was more relevant to earlier patch)

Alexei reported use after frees in inet_diag_dump_icsk() [1]

Because we use refcount_set() when various sockets are setup and
inserted into ehash, we also need to make sure inet_diag_dump_icsk()
wont race with the refcount_set() operations.

Jonathan Lemon sent a patch changing net_twsk_hashdance() but
other spots would need risky changes.

Instead, fix inet_diag_dump_icsk() as this bug came with
linux-4.10 only.

[1] Quoting Alexei :

First something iterating over sockets finds already freed tw socket:

refcount_t: increment on 0; use-after-free.

SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID is supported on TCP, UDP and RAW sockets.
But it was missing on RAW with IPPROTO_IP, PF_PACKET and CAN.

Add skb_setup_tx_timestamp that configures both tx_flags and tskey
for these paths that do not need corking or use bytestream keys.

Sergey reported that forwarding was no longer working
if fq packet scheduler was used.

This is caused by the recent switch to EDT model, since incoming
packets might have been timestamped by __net_timestamp()

__net_timestamp() uses ktime_get_real(), while fq expects packets
using CLOCK_MONOTONIC base.

The fix is to clear skb-&gt;tstamp in forwarding paths.

<title>net: ipv4: do not handle duplicate fragments as overlapping</title>

<id>ade446403bfb79d3528d56071a84b15351a139ad</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit 7969e5c40dfd ("ip: discard IPv4 datagrams with overlapping
segments.") IPv4 reassembly code drops the whole queue whenever an
overlapping fragment is received. However, the test is written in a way
which detects duplicate fragments as overlapping so that in environments
with many duplicate packets, fragmented packets may be undeliverable.

Add an extra test and for (potentially) duplicate fragment, only drop the
new fragment rather than the whole queue. Only starting offset and length
are checked, not the contents of the fragments as that would be too
expensive. For similar reason, linear list ("run") of a rbtree node is not
iterated, we only check if the new fragment is a subset of the interval
covered by existing consecutive fragments.

v2: instead of an exact check iterating through linear list of an rbtree
node, only check if the new fragment is subset of the "run" (suggested
by Eric Dumazet)

<title>net: Allow class-e address assignment via ifconfig ioctl</title>

<id>65cab850f0eeaa9180bd2e10a231964f33743edf</id>
<content type='text'>
While most distributions long ago switched to the iproute2 suite
of utilities, which allow class-e (240.0.0.0/4) address assignment,
distributions relying on busybox, toybox and other forms of
ifconfig cannot assign class-e addresses without this kernel patch.

While CIDR has been obsolete for 2 decades, and a survey of all the
open source code in the world shows the IN_whatever macros are also
obsolete... rather than obsolete CIDR from this ioctl entirely, this
patch merely enables class-e assignment, sanely.

<title>ipv4: Fix potential Spectre v1 vulnerability</title>

vr.vifi is indirectly controlled by user-space, hence leading to
a potential exploitation of the Spectre variant 1 vulnerability.

This issue was detected with the help of Smatch:

net/ipv4/ipmr.c:1616 ipmr_ioctl() warn: potential spectre issue 'mrt-&gt;vif_table' [r] (local cap)
net/ipv4/ipmr.c:1690 ipmr_compat_ioctl() warn: potential spectre issue 'mrt-&gt;vif_table' [r] (local cap)

Fix this by sanitizing vr.vifi before using it to index mrt-&gt;vif_table'

Notice that given that speculation windows are large, the policy is
to kill the speculation on the first load and not worry if it can be
completed with a dependent load/store [1].

<title>tcp: lack of available data can also cause TSO defer</title>

tcp_tso_should_defer() can return true in three different cases :

 1) We are cwnd-limited
 2) We are rwnd-limited
 3) We are application limited.

Neal pointed out that my recent fix went too far, since
it assumed that if we were not in 1) case, we must be rwnd-limited

Fix this by properly populating the is_cwnd_limited and
is_rwnd_limited booleans.

After this change, we can finally move the silly check for FIN
flag only for the application-limited case.

The same move for EOR bit will be handled in net-next,
since commit 1c09f7d073b1 ("tcp: do not try to defer skbs
with eor mark (MSG_EOR)") is scheduled for linux-4.21

Tested by running 200 concurrent netperf -t TCP_RR -- -r 60000,100
and checking none of them was rwnd_limited in the chrono_stat
output from "ss -ti" command.
