[ Upstream commit 730e700e2c19d87e578ff0e7d8cb1d4a02b036d2 ]

For retransmitted packets, TCP needs to resort to using TCP timestamps
for computing RTT samples. In the common case where the data and ACK
fall in the same 1-millisecond interval, TCP senders with millisecond-
granularity TCP timestamps compute a ca_rtt_us of 0. This ca_rtt_us
of 0 propagates to rs-&gt;rtt_us.

This value of 0 can cause performance problems for congestion control
modules. For example, in BBR, the zero min_rtt sample can bring the
min_rtt and BDP estimate down to 0, reduce snd_cwnd and result in a
low throughput. It would be hard to mitigate this with filtering in
the congestion control module, because the proper floor to apply would
depend on the method of RTT sampling (using timestamp options or
internally-saved transmission timestamps).

This fix applies a floor of 1 for the RTT sample delta from TCP
timestamps, so that seq_rtt_us, ca_rtt_us, and rs-&gt;rtt_us will be at
least 1 * (USEC_PER_SEC / TCP_TS_HZ).

Note that the receiver RTT computation in tcp_rcv_rtt_measure() and
min_rtt computation in tcp_update_rtt_min() both already apply a floor
of 1 timestamp tick, so this commit makes the code more consistent in
avoiding this edge case of a value of 0.

[ Upstream commit 622e32b7d4a6492cf5c1f759ef833f817418f7b3 ]

The GRE tunnel can be used to transport traffic that does not rely on a
Internet checksum (e.g. SCTP). The issue can be triggered creating a GRE
or GRETAP tunnel and transmitting SCTP traffic ontop of it where CRC
offload has been disabled. In order to fix the issue we need to
recompute the GRE csum in gre_gso_segment() not relying on the inner
checksum.
The issue is still present when we have the CRC offload enabled.
In this case we need to disable the CRC offload if we require GRE
checksum since otherwise skb_checksum() will report a wrong value.

[ Upstream commit 83f3522860f702748143e022f1a546547314c715 ]

fib_trie_unmerge() is called with RTNL held, but not from an RCU
read-side critical section. This leads to the following warning [1] when
the FIB alias list in a leaf is traversed with
hlist_for_each_entry_rcu().

Since the function is always called with RTNL held and since
modification of the list is protected by RTNL, simply use
hlist_for_each_entry() and silence the warning.

<title>udp: Improve load balancing for SO_REUSEPORT.</title>

[ Upstream commit efc6b6f6c3113e8b203b9debfb72d81e0f3dcace ]

Currently, SO_REUSEPORT does not work well if connected sockets are in a
UDP reuseport group.

Then reuseport_has_conns() returns true and the result of
reuseport_select_sock() is discarded. Also, unconnected sockets have the
same score, hence only does the first unconnected socket in udp_hslot
always receive all packets sent to unconnected sockets.

So, the result of reuseport_select_sock() should be used for load
balancing.

The noteworthy point is that the unconnected sockets placed after
connected sockets in sock_reuseport.socks will receive more packets than
others because of the algorithm in reuseport_select_sock().

    index | connected | reciprocal_scale | result
    ---------------------------------------------
    0     | no        | 20%              | 40%
    1     | no        | 20%              | 20%
    2     | yes       | 20%              | 0%
    3     | no        | 20%              | 40%
    4     | yes       | 20%              | 0%

If most of the sockets are connected, this can be a problem, but it still
works better than now.

<title>tcp: allow at most one TLP probe per flight</title>

[ Upstream commit 76be93fc0702322179bb0ea87295d820ee46ad14 ]

Previously TLP may send multiple probes of new data in one
flight. This happens when the sender is cwnd limited. After the
initial TLP containing new data is sent, the sender receives another
ACK that acks partial inflight.  It may re-arm another TLP timer
to send more, if no further ACK returns before the next TLP timeout
(PTO) expires. The sender may send in theory a large amount of TLP
until send queue is depleted. This only happens if the sender sees
such irregular uncommon ACK pattern. But it is generally undesirable
behavior during congestion especially.

The original TLP design restrict only one TLP probe per inflight as
published in "Reducing Web Latency: the Virtue of Gentle Aggression",
SIGCOMM 2013. This patch changes TLP to send at most one probe
per inflight.

Note that if the sender is app-limited, TLP retransmits old data
and did not have this issue.

[ Upstream commit 0da7536fb47f51df89ccfcb1fa09f249d9accec5 ]

When no full socket is available, skbs are sent over a per-netns
control socket. Its sk_mark is temporarily adjusted to match that
of the real (request or timewait) socket or to reflect an incoming
skb, so that the outgoing skb inherits this in __ip_make_skb.

Introduction of the socket cookie mark field broke this. Now the
skb is set through the cookie and cork:

&lt;caller&gt;		# init sockc.mark from sk_mark or cmsg
ip_append_data
  ip_setup_cork		# convert sockc.mark to cork mark
ip_push_pending_frames
  ip_finish_skb
    __ip_make_skb	# set skb-&gt;mark to cork mark

But I missed these special control sockets. Update all callers of
__ip(6)_make_skb that were originally missed.

For IPv6, the same two icmp(v6) paths are affected. The third
case is not, as commit 92e55f412cff ("tcp: don't annotate
mark on control socket from tcp_v6_send_response()") replaced
the ctl_sk-&gt;sk_mark with passing the mark field directly as a
function argument. That commit predates the commit that
introduced the bug.

<title>tcp: md5: allow changing MD5 keys in all socket states</title>

[ Upstream commit 1ca0fafd73c5268e8fc4b997094b8bb2bfe8deea ]

This essentially reverts commit 721230326891 ("tcp: md5: reject TCP_MD5SIG
or TCP_MD5SIG_EXT on established sockets")

Mathieu reported that many vendors BGP implementations can
actually switch TCP MD5 on established flows.

Quoting Mathieu :
   Here is a list of a few network vendors along with their behavior
   with respect to TCP MD5:

   - Cisco: Allows for password to be changed, but within the hold-down
     timer (~180 seconds).
   - Juniper: When password is initially set on active connection it will
     reset, but after that any subsequent password changes no network
     resets.
   - Nokia: No notes on if they flap the tcp connection or not.
   - Ericsson/RedBack: Allows for 2 password (old/new) to co-exist until
     both sides are ok with new passwords.
   - Meta-Switch: Expects the password to be set before a connection is
     attempted, but no further info on whether they reset the TCP
     connection on a change.
   - Avaya: Disable the neighbor, then set password, then re-enable.
   - Zebos: Would normally allow the change when socket connected.

We can revert my prior change because commit 9424e2e7ad93 ("tcp: md5: fix potential
overestimation of TCP option space") removed the leak of 4 kernel bytes to
the wire that was the main reason for my patch.

While doing my investigations, I found a bug when a MD5 key is changed, leading
to these commits that stable teams want to consider before backporting this revert :

 Commit 6a2febec338d ("tcp: md5: add missing memory barriers in tcp_md5_do_add()/tcp_md5_hash_key()")
 Commit e6ced831ef11 ("tcp: md5: refine tcp_md5_do_add()/tcp_md5_hash_key() barriers")

[ Upstream commit e6ced831ef11a2a06e8d00aad9d4fc05b610bf38 ]

My prior fix went a bit too far, according to Herbert and Mathieu.

Since we accept that concurrent TCP MD5 lookups might see inconsistent
keys, we can use READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() instead of smp_rmb()/smp_wmb()

Clearing all key-&gt;key[] is needed to avoid possible KMSAN reports,
if key-&gt;keylen is increased. Since tcp_md5_do_add() is not fast path,
using __GFP_ZERO to clear all struct tcp_md5sig_key is simpler.

data_race() was added in linux-5.8 and will prevent KCSAN reports,
this can safely be removed in stable backports, if data_race() is
not yet backported.

v2: use data_race() both in tcp_md5_hash_key() and tcp_md5_do_add()

<title>tcp: md5: do not send silly options in SYNCOOKIES</title>

[ Upstream commit e114e1e8ac9d31f25b9dd873bab5d80c1fc482ca ]

Whenever cookie_init_timestamp() has been used to encode
ECN,SACK,WSCALE options, we can not remove the TS option in the SYNACK.

Otherwise, tcp_synack_options() will still advertize options like WSCALE
that we can not deduce later when receiving the packet from the client
to complete 3WHS.

Note that modern linux TCP stacks wont use MD5+TS+SACK in a SYN packet,
but we can not know for sure that all TCP stacks have the same logic.

Before the fix a tcpdump would exhibit this wrong exchange :

10:12:15.464591 IP C &gt; S: Flags [S], seq 4202415601, win 65535, options [nop,nop,md5 valid,mss 1400,sackOK,TS val 456965269 ecr 0,nop,wscale 8], length 0
10:12:15.464602 IP S &gt; C: Flags [S.], seq 253516766, ack 4202415602, win 65535, options [nop,nop,md5 valid,mss 1400,nop,nop,sackOK,nop,wscale 8], length 0

10:12:15.464685 IP S &gt; C: Flags [.], ack 13, win 65535, options [nop,nop,md5 valid], length 0

After this patch the exchange looks saner :

Of course, no SACK block will ever be added later, but nothing should break.
Technically, we could remove the 4 nops included in MD5+TS options,
but again some stacks could break seeing not conventional alignment.
