[ Upstream commit a66b10c05ee2d744189e9a2130394b070883d289 ]

Yuchung Cheng and Marek Majkowski independently reported a weird
behavior of TCP_USER_TIMEOUT option when used at connect() time.

When the TCP_USER_TIMEOUT is reached, tcp_write_timeout()
believes the flow should live, and the following condition
in tcp_clamp_rto_to_user_timeout() programs one jiffie timers :

    remaining = icsk-&gt;icsk_user_timeout - elapsed;
    if (remaining &lt;= 0)
        return 1; /* user timeout has passed; fire ASAP */

This silly situation ends when the max syn rtx count is reached.

This patch makes sure we honor both TCP_SYNCNT and TCP_USER_TIMEOUT,
avoiding these spurious SYN packets.

[ Upstream commit 77d5bc7e6a6cf8bbeca31aab7f0c5449a5eee762 ]

Julian noted that rt_uses_gateway has a more subtle use than 'is gateway
set':
    https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/alpine.LFD.2.21.1909151104060.2546@ja.home.ssi.bg/

Revert that part of the commit referenced in the Fixes tag.

Currently, there are no u8 holes in 'struct rtable'. There is a 4-byte hole
in the second cacheline which contains the gateway declaration. So move
rt_gw_family down to the gateway declarations since they are always used
together, and then re-use that u8 for rt_uses_gateway. End result is that
rtable size is unchanged.

<title>tcp_bbr: fix quantization code to not raise cwnd if not probing bandwidth</title>

[ Upstream commit 6b3656a60f2067738d1a423328199720806f0c44 ]

There was a bug in the previous logic that attempted to ensure gain cycling
gets inflight above BDP even for small BDPs. This code correctly raised and
lowered target inflight values during the gain cycle. And this code
correctly ensured that cwnd was raised when probing bandwidth. However, it
did not correspondingly ensure that cwnd was *not* raised in this way when
*not* probing for bandwidth. The result was that small-BDP flows that were
always cwnd-bound could go for many cycles with a fixed cwnd, and not probe
or yield bandwidth at all. This meant that multiple small-BDP flows could
fail to converge in their bandwidth allocations.

<title>udp: correct reuseport selection with connected sockets</title>

[ Upstream commit acdcecc61285faed359f1a3568c32089cc3a8329 ]

UDP reuseport groups can hold a mix unconnected and connected sockets.
Ensure that connections only receive all traffic to their 4-tuple.

Fast reuseport returns on the first reuseport match on the assumption
that all matches are equal. Only if connections are present, return to
the previous behavior of scoring all sockets.

Record if connections are present and if so (1) treat such connected
sockets as an independent match from the group, (2) only return
2-tuple matches from reuseport and (3) do not return on the first
2-tuple reuseport match to allow for a higher scoring match later.

New field has_conns is set without locks. No other fields in the
bitmap are modified at runtime and the field is only ever set
unconditionally, so an RMW cannot miss a change.

<title>tcp: fix tcp_ecn_withdraw_cwr() to clear TCP_ECN_QUEUE_CWR</title>

<id>af38d07ed391b21f7405fa1f936ca9686787d6d2</id>
<content type='text'>
Fix tcp_ecn_withdraw_cwr() to clear the correct bit:
TCP_ECN_QUEUE_CWR.

Rationale: basically, TCP_ECN_DEMAND_CWR is a bit that is purely about
the behavior of data receivers, and deciding whether to reflect
incoming IP ECN CE marks as outgoing TCP th-&gt;ece marks. The
TCP_ECN_QUEUE_CWR bit is purely about the behavior of data senders,
and deciding whether to send CWR. The tcp_ecn_withdraw_cwr() function
is only called from tcp_undo_cwnd_reduction() by data senders during
an undo, so it should zero the sender-side state,
TCP_ECN_QUEUE_CWR. It does not make sense to stop the reflection of
incoming CE bits on incoming data packets just because outgoing
packets were spuriously retransmitted.

The bug has been reproduced with packetdrill to manifest in a scenario
with RFC3168 ECN, with an incoming data packet with CE bit set and
carrying a TCP timestamp value that causes cwnd undo. Before this fix,
the IP CE bit was ignored and not reflected in the TCP ECE header bit,
and sender sent a TCP CWR ('W') bit on the next outgoing data packet,
even though the cwnd reduction had been undone.  After this fix, the
sender properly reflects the CE bit and does not set the W bit.

Note: the bug actually predates 2005 git history; this Fixes footer is
chosen to be the oldest SHA1 I have tested (from Sep 2007) for which
the patch applies cleanly (since before this commit the code was in a
.h file).

TCP associates tx timestamp requests with a byte in the bytestream.
If merging skbs in tcp_mtu_probe, migrate the tstamp request.

Similar to MSG_EOR, do not allow moving a timestamp from any segment
in the probe but the last. This to avoid merging multiple timestamps.

Tested with the packetdrill script at

TCP associates tx timestamp requests with a byte in the bytestream.
If merging skbs in tcp_mtu_probe, migrate the tstamp request.

Similar to MSG_EOR, do not allow moving a timestamp from any segment
in the probe but the last. This to avoid merging multiple timestamps.

Tested with the packetdrill script at
https://github.com/wdebruij/packetdrill/commits/mtu_probe-1

Vladimir Rutsky reported stuck TCP sessions after memory pressure
events. Edge Trigger epoll() user would never receive an EPOLLOUT
notification allowing them to retry a sendmsg().

Jason tested the case of sk_stream_alloc_skb() returning NULL,
but there are other paths that could lead both sendmsg() and sendpage()
to return -1 (EAGAIN), with an empty skb queued on the write queue.

This patch makes sure we remove this empty skb so that
Jason code can detect that the queue is empty, and
call sk-&gt;sk_write_space(sk) accordingly.

<title>net: route dump netlink NLM_F_MULTI flag missing</title>

An excerpt from netlink(7) man page,

  In multipart messages (multiple nlmsghdr headers with associated payload
  in one byte stream) the first and all following headers have the
  NLM_F_MULTI flag set, except for the last  header  which  has the type
  NLMSG_DONE.

but, after (ee28906) there is a missing NLM_F_MULTI flag in the middle of a
FIB dump. The result is user space applications following above man page
excerpt may get confused and may stop parsing msg believing something went
wrong.

In the golang netlink lib [0] the library logic stops parsing believing the
message is not a multipart message. Found this running Cilium[1] against
net-next while adding a feature to auto-detect routes. I noticed with
multiple route tables we no longer could detect the default routes on net
tree kernels because the library logic was not returning them.

Fix this by handling the fib_dump_info_fnhe() case the same way the
fib_dump_info() handles it by passing the flags argument through the
call chain and adding a flags argument to rt_fill_info().

Tested with Cilium stack and auto-detection of routes works again. Also
annotated libs to dump netlink msgs and inspected NLM_F_MULTI and
NLMSG_DONE flags look correct after this.

Note: In inet_rtm_getroute() pass rt_fill_info() '0' for flags the same
as is done for fib_dump_info() so this looks correct to me.

<title>ipv4/icmp: fix rt dst dev null pointer dereference</title>

In __icmp_send() there is a possibility that the rt-&gt;dst.dev is NULL,
e,g, with tunnel collect_md mode, which will cause kernel crash.
Here is what the code path looks like, for GRE:

- ip6gre_tunnel_xmit
  - ip6gre_xmit_ipv4
    - __gre6_xmit
      - ip6_tnl_xmit
        - if skb-&gt;len - t-&gt;tun_hlen - eth_hlen &gt; mtu; return -EMSGSIZE
    - icmp_send
      - net = dev_net(rt-&gt;dst.dev); &lt;-- here

The reason is __metadata_dst_init() init dst-&gt;dev to NULL by default.
We could not fix it in __metadata_dst_init() as there is no dev supplied.
On the other hand, the reason we need rt-&gt;dst.dev is to get the net.
So we can just try get it from skb-&gt;dev when rt-&gt;dst.dev is NULL.

v4: Julian Anastasov remind skb-&gt;dev also could be NULL. We'd better
still use dst.dev and do a check to avoid crash.

v3: No changes.

v2: fix the issue in __icmp_send() instead of updating shared dst dev
in {ip_md, ip6}_tunnel_xmit.
