commit 600647d467c6d04b3954b41a6ee1795b5ae00550 upstream.

Fix BBR so that upon notification of a loss recovery undo BBR resets
long-term bandwidth sampling.

Under high reordering, reordering events can be interpreted as loss.
If the reordering and spurious loss estimates are high enough, this
can cause BBR to spuriously estimate that we are seeing loss rates
high enough to trigger long-term bandwidth estimation. To avoid that
problem, this commit resets long-term bandwidth sampling on loss
recovery undo events.

commit 2f6c498e4f15d27852c04ed46d804a39137ba364 upstream.

Fix BBR so that upon notification of a loss recovery undo BBR resets
the full pipe detection (STARTUP exit) state machine.

Under high reordering, reordering events can be interpreted as loss.
If the reordering and spurious loss estimates are high enough, this
could previously cause BBR to spuriously estimate that the pipe is
full.

Since spurious loss recovery means that our overall sending will have
slowed down spuriously, this commit gives a flow more time to probe
robustly for bandwidth and decide the pipe is really full.

<title>tcp: invalidate rate samples during SACK reneging</title>

[ Upstream commit d4761754b4fb2ef8d9a1e9d121c4bec84e1fe292 ]

Mark tcp_sock during a SACK reneging event and invalidate rate samples
while marked. Such rate samples may overestimate bw by including packets
that were SACKed before reneging.

&lt; ack 6001 win 10000 sack 7001:38001
&lt; ack 7001 win 0 sack 8001:38001 // Reneg detected
&gt; seq 7001:8001 // RTO, SACK cleared.
&lt; ack 38001 win 10000

In above example the rate sample taken after the last ack will count
7001-38001 as delivered while the actual delivery rate likely could
be much lower i.e. 7001-8001.

This patch adds a new field tcp_sock.sack_reneg and marks it when we
declare SACK reneging and entering TCP_CA_Loss, and unmarks it after
the last rate sample was taken before moving back to TCP_CA_Open. This
patch also invalidates rate samples taken while tcp_sock.is_sack_reneg
is set.

<title>ipv4: Fix use-after-free when flushing FIB tables</title>

[ Upstream commit b4681c2829e24943aadd1a7bb3a30d41d0a20050 ]

Since commit 0ddcf43d5d4a ("ipv4: FIB Local/MAIN table collapse") the
local table uses the same trie allocated for the main table when custom
rules are not in use.

When a net namespace is dismantled, the main table is flushed and freed
(via an RCU callback) before the local table. In case the callback is
invoked before the local table is iterated, a use-after-free can occur.

Fix this by iterating over the FIB tables in reverse order, so that the
main table is always freed after the local table.

v3: Reworded comment according to Alex's suggestion.
v2: Add a comment to make the fix more explicit per Dave's and Alex's
feedback.

<title>tcp md5sig: Use skb's saddr when replying to an incoming segment</title>

[ Upstream commit 30791ac41927ebd3e75486f9504b6d2280463bf0 ]

The MD5-key that belongs to a connection is identified by the peer's
IP-address. When we are in tcp_v4(6)_reqsk_send_ack(), we are replying
to an incoming segment from tcp_check_req() that failed the seq-number
checks.

Thus, to find the correct key, we need to use the skb's saddr and not
the daddr.

This bug seems to have been there since quite a while, but probably got
unnoticed because the consequences are not catastrophic. We will call
tcp_v4_reqsk_send_ack only to send a challenge-ACK back to the peer,
thus the connection doesn't really fail.

[ Upstream commit c589e69b508d29ed8e644dfecda453f71c02ec27 ]

This commit records the "full bw reached" decision in a new
full_bw_reached bit. This is a pure refactor that does not change the
current behavior, but enables subsequent fixes and improvements.

In particular, this enables simple and clean fixes because the full_bw
and full_bw_cnt can be unconditionally zeroed without worrying about
forgetting that we estimated we filled the pipe in Startup. And it
enables future improvements because multiple code paths can be used
for estimating that we filled the pipe in Startup; any new code paths
only need to set this bit when they think the pipe is full.

Note that this fix intentionally reduces the width of the full_bw_cnt
counter, since we have never used the most significant bit.

[ Upstream commit a46182b00290839fa3fa159d54fd3237bd8669f0 ]

Closing a multicast socket after the final IPv4 address is deleted
from an interface can generate a membership report that uses the
source IP from a different interface.  The following test script, run
from an isolated netns, reproduces the issue:

    #!/bin/bash

    ip link add dummy0 type dummy
    ip link add dummy1 type dummy
    ip link set dummy0 up
    ip link set dummy1 up
    ip addr add 10.1.1.1/24 dev dummy0
    ip addr add 192.168.99.99/24 dev dummy1

    tcpdump -U -i dummy0 &amp;
    socat EXEC:"sleep 2" \
        UDP4-DATAGRAM:239.101.1.68:8889,ip-add-membership=239.0.1.68:10.1.1.1 &amp;

    sleep 1
    ip addr del 10.1.1.1/24 dev dummy0
    sleep 5
    kill %tcpdump

RFC 3376 specifies that the report must be sent with a valid IP source
address from the destination subnet, or from address 0.0.0.0.  Add an
extra check to make sure this is the case.

    ip addr del 10.1.1.1/24 dev dummy0
    sleep 5
    kill %tcpdump

RFC 3376 specifies that the report must be sent with a valid IP source
address from the destination subnet, or from address 0.0.0.0.  Add an
extra check to make sure this is the case.

[ Upstream commit b5476022bbada3764609368f03329ca287528dc8 ]

IPv4 stack reacts to changes to small MTU, by disabling itself under
RTNL.

But there is a window where threads not using RTNL can see a wrong
device mtu. This can lead to surprises, in igmp code where it is
assumed the mtu is suitable.

Fix this by reading device mtu once and checking IPv4 minimal MTU.

This patch adds missing IPV4_MIN_MTU define, to not abuse
ETH_MIN_MTU anymore.

[ Upstream commit cf5d74b85ef40c202c76d90959db4d850f301b95 ]

With the commit 76174004a0f19785 (tcp: do not slow start when cwnd equals
ssthresh), the comparison to the reduced cwnd in tcp_vegas_ssthresh() would
under-evaluate the ssthresh.
