[ Upstream commit 909172a149749242990a6e64cb55d55460d4e417 ]

When net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies=1 and syn flood is happened,
cookie_v4_check or cookie_v6_check tries to redo what
tcp_v4_send_synack or tcp_v6_send_synack did,
rsk_window_clamp will be changed if SOCK_RCVBUF is set,
which will make rcv_wscale is different, the client
still operates with initial window scale and can overshot
granted window, the client use the initial scale but local
server use new scale to advertise window value, and session
work abnormally.

<title>net: udp: fix UDP header access on Fast/frag0 UDP GRO</title>

[ Upstream commit 4b1a86281cc1d0de46df3ad2cb8c1f86ac07681c ]

UDP GRO uses udp_hdr(skb) in its .gro_receive() callback. While it's
probably OK for non-frag0 paths (when all headers or even the entire
frame are already in skb head), this inline points to junk when
using Fast GRO (napi_gro_frags() or napi_gro_receive() with only
Ethernet header in skb head and all the rest in the frags) and breaks
GRO packet compilation and the packet flow itself.
To support both modes, skb_gro_header_fast() + skb_gro_header_slow()
are typically used. UDP even has an inline helper that makes use of
them, udp_gro_udphdr(). Use that instead of troublemaking udp_hdr()
to get rid of the out-of-order delivers.

Present since the introduction of plain UDP GRO in 5.0-rc1.

<title>netfilter: use actual socket sk rather than skb sk when routing harder</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 46d6c5ae953cc0be38efd0e469284df7c4328cf8 ]

If netfilter changes the packet mark when mangling, the packet is
rerouted using the route_me_harder set of functions. Prior to this
commit, there's one big difference between route_me_harder and the
ordinary initial routing functions, described in the comment above
__ip_queue_xmit():

   /* Note: skb-&gt;sk can be different from sk, in case of tunnels */
   int __ip_queue_xmit(struct sock *sk, struct sk_buff *skb, struct flowi *fl,

That function goes on to correctly make use of sk-&gt;sk_bound_dev_if,
rather than skb-&gt;sk-&gt;sk_bound_dev_if. And indeed the comment is true: a
tunnel will receive a packet in ndo_start_xmit with an initial skb-&gt;sk.
It will make some transformations to that packet, and then it will send
the encapsulated packet out of a *new* socket. That new socket will
basically always have a different sk_bound_dev_if (otherwise there'd be
a routing loop). So for the purposes of routing the encapsulated packet,
the routing information as it pertains to the socket should come from
that socket's sk, rather than the packet's original skb-&gt;sk. For that
reason __ip_queue_xmit() and related functions all do the right thing.

One might argue that all tunnels should just call skb_orphan(skb) before
transmitting the encapsulated packet into the new socket. But tunnels do
*not* do this -- and this is wisely avoided in skb_scrub_packet() too --
because features like TSQ rely on skb-&gt;destructor() being called when
that buffer space is truely available again. Calling skb_orphan(skb) too
early would result in buffers filling up unnecessarily and accounting
info being all wrong. Instead, additional routing must take into account
the new sk, just as __ip_queue_xmit() notes.

So, this commit addresses the problem by fishing the correct sk out of
state-&gt;sk -- it's already set properly in the call to nf_hook() in
__ip_local_out(), which receives the sk as part of its normal
functionality. So we make sure to plumb state-&gt;sk through the various
route_me_harder functions, and then make correct use of it following the
example of __ip_queue_xmit().

[ Upstream commit 20149e9eb68c003eaa09e7c9a49023df40779552 ]

The tunnel device such as vxlan, bareudp and geneve in the lwt mode set
the outer df only based TUNNEL_DONT_FRAGMENT.
And this was also the behavior for gre device before switching to use
ip_md_tunnel_xmit in commit 962924fa2b7a ("ip_gre: Refactor collect
metatdata mode tunnel xmit to ip_md_tunnel_xmit")

When the ip_gre in lwt mode xmit with ip_md_tunnel_xmi changed the rule and
make the discrepancy between handling of DF by different tunnels. So in the
ip_md_tunnel_xmit should follow the same rule like other tunnels.

<title>tcp: Prevent low rmem stalls with SO_RCVLOWAT.</title>

[ Upstream commit 435ccfa894e35e3d4a1799e6ac030e48a7b69ef5 ]

With SO_RCVLOWAT, under memory pressure,
it is possible to enter a state where:

1. We have not received enough bytes to satisfy SO_RCVLOWAT.
2. We have not entered buffer pressure (see tcp_rmem_pressure()).
3. But, we do not have enough buffer space to accept more packets.

In this case, we advertise 0 rwnd (due to #3) but the application does
not drain the receive queue (no wakeup because of #1 and #2) so the
flow stalls.

Modify the heuristic for SO_RCVLOWAT so that, if we are advertising
rwnd&lt;=rcv_mss, force a wakeup to prevent a stall.

Without this patch, setting tcp_rmem to 6143 and disabling TCP
autotune causes a stalled flow. With this patch, no stall occurs. This
is with RPC-style traffic with large messages.

[ Upstream commit fdafed459998e2be0e877e6189b24cb7a0183224 ]

GRE tunnel has its own header_ops, ipgre_header_ops, and sets it
conditionally. When it is set, it assumes the outer IP header is
already created before ipgre_xmit().

This is not true when we send packets through a raw packet socket,
where L2 headers are supposed to be constructed by user. Packet
socket calls dev_validate_header() to validate the header. But
GRE tunnel does not set dev-&gt;hard_header_len, so that check can
be simply bypassed, therefore uninit memory could be passed down
to ipgre_xmit(). Similar for dev-&gt;needed_headroom.

dev-&gt;hard_header_len is supposed to be the length of the header
created by dev-&gt;header_ops-&gt;create(), so it should be used whenever
header_ops is set, and dev-&gt;needed_headroom should be used when it
is not set.

[ Upstream commit 0d9826bc18ce356e8909919ad681ad65d0a6061e ]

Dump vlan tag and proto for the usual vlan offload case if the
NF_LOG_MACDECODE flag is set on. Without this information the logging is
misleading as there is no reference to the VLAN header.

Keyu Man reported that the ICMP rate limiter could be used
by attackers to get useful signal. Details will be provided
in an upcoming academic publication.

Our solution is to add some noise, so that the attackers
no longer can get help from the predictable token bucket limiter.

<title>tcp: fix to update snd_wl1 in bulk receiver fast path</title>

[ Upstream commit 18ded910b589839e38a51623a179837ab4cc3789 ]

In the header prediction fast path for a bulk data receiver, if no
data is newly acknowledged then we do not call tcp_ack() and do not
call tcp_ack_update_window(). This means that a bulk receiver that
receives large amounts of data can have the incoming sequence numbers
wrap, so that the check in tcp_may_update_window fails:
   after(ack_seq, tp-&gt;snd_wl1)

If the incoming receive windows are zero in this state, and then the
connection that was a bulk data receiver later wants to send data,
that connection can find itself persistently rejecting the window
updates in incoming ACKs. This means the connection can persistently
fail to discover that the receive window has opened, which in turn
means that the connection is unable to send anything, and the
connection's sending process can get permanently "stuck".

The fix is to update snd_wl1 in the header prediction fast path for a
bulk data receiver, so that it keeps up and does not see wrapping
problems.

This fix is based on a very nice and thorough analysis and diagnosis
by Apollon Oikonomopoulos (see link below).

This is a stable candidate but there is no Fixes tag here since the
bug predates current git history. Just for fun: looks like the bug
dates back to when header prediction was added in Linux v2.1.8 in Nov
1996. In that version tcp_rcv_established() was added, and the code
only updates snd_wl1 in tcp_ack(), and in the new "Bulk data transfer:
receiver" code path it does not call tcp_ack(). This fix seems to
apply cleanly at least as far back as v3.2.

<title>nexthop: Fix performance regression in nexthop deletion</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit df6afe2f7c19349de2ee560dc62ea4d9ad3ff889 ]

While insertion of 16k nexthops all using the same netdev ('dummy10')
takes less than a second, deletion takes about 130 seconds:

# time -p ip -b nexthop.batch
real 0.29
user 0.01
sys 0.15

# time -p ip link set dev dummy10 down
real 131.03
user 0.06
sys 0.52

This is because of repeated calls to synchronize_rcu() whenever a
nexthop is removed from a nexthop group:

# /usr/share/bcc/tools/offcputime -p `pgrep -nx ip` -K
...
    b'finish_task_switch'
    b'schedule'
    b'schedule_timeout'
    b'wait_for_completion'
    b'__wait_rcu_gp'

    -                ip (277)
        126554955

Since nexthops are always deleted under RTNL, synchronize_net() can be
used instead. It will call synchronize_rcu_expedited() which only blocks
for several microseconds as opposed to multiple milliseconds like
synchronize_rcu().

With this patch deletion of 16k nexthops takes less than a second:

# time -p ip link set dev dummy10 down
real 0.12
user 0.00
sys 0.04

Tested with fib_nexthops.sh which includes torture tests that prompted
the initial change:

# ./fib_nexthops.sh
...
