[ Upstream commit 36cd0e696a832a00247fca522034703566ac8885 ]

Fix sockmap sk_skb programs so that they observe sk_rcvbuf limits. This
allows users to tune SO_RCVBUF and sockmap will honor them.

We can refactor the if(charge) case out in later patches. But, keep this
fix to the point.

<title>bpf, sockmap: Fix partial copy_page_to_iter so progress can still be made</title>

[ Upstream commit c9c89dcd872ea33327673fcb97398993a1f22736 ]

If copy_page_to_iter() fails or even partially completes, but with fewer
bytes copied than expected we currently reset sg.start and return EFAULT.
This proves problematic if we already copied data into the user buffer
before we return an error. Because we leave the copied data in the user
buffer and fail to unwind the scatterlist so kernel side believes data
has been copied and user side believes data has _not_ been received.

Expected behavior should be to return number of bytes copied and then
on the next read we need to return the error assuming its still there. This
can happen if we have a copy length spanning multiple scatterlist elements
and one or more complete before the error is hit.

The error is rare enough though that my normal testing with server side
programs, such as nginx, httpd, envoy, etc., I have never seen this. The
only reliable way to reproduce that I've found is to stream movies over
my browser for a day or so and wait for it to hang. Not very scientific,
but with a few extra WARN_ON()s in the code the bug was obvious.

When we review the errors from copy_page_to_iter() it seems we are hitting
a page fault from copy_page_to_iter_iovec() where the code checks
fault_in_pages_writeable(buf, copy) where buf is the user buffer. It
also seems typical server applications don't hit this case.

The other way to try and reproduce this is run the sockmap selftest tool
test_sockmap with data verification enabled, but it doesn't reproduce the
fault. Perhaps we can trigger this case artificially somehow from the
test tools. I haven't sorted out a way to do that yet though.

<title>tcp: only postpone PROBE_RTT if RTT is &lt; current min_rtt estimate</title>

[ Upstream commit 1b9e2a8c99a5c021041bfb2d512dc3ed92a94ffd ]

During loss recovery, retransmitted packets are forced to use TCP
timestamps to calculate the RTT samples, which have a millisecond
granularity. BBR is designed using a microsecond granularity. As a
result, multiple RTT samples could be truncated to the same RTT value
during loss recovery. This is problematic, as BBR will not enter
PROBE_RTT if the RTT sample is &lt;= the current min_rtt sample, meaning
that if there are persistent losses, PROBE_RTT will constantly be
pushed off and potentially never re-entered. This patch makes sure
that BBR enters PROBE_RTT by checking if RTT sample is &lt; the current
min_rtt sample, rather than &lt;=.

The Netflix transport/TCP team discovered this bug in the Linux TCP
BBR code during lab tests.

<title>Exempt multicast addresses from five-second neighbor lifetime</title>

[ Upstream commit 8cf8821e15cd553339a5b48ee555a0439c2b2742 ]

Commit 58956317c8de ("neighbor: Improve garbage collection")
guarantees neighbour table entries a five-second lifetime.  Processes
which make heavy use of multicast can fill the neighour table with
multicast addresses in five seconds.  At that point, neighbour entries
can't be GC-ed because they aren't five seconds old yet, the kernel
log starts to fill up with "neighbor table overflow!" messages, and
sends start to fail.

This patch allows multicast addresses to be thrown out before they've
lived out their five seconds.  This makes room for non-multicast
addresses and makes messages to all addresses more reliable in these
circumstances.

[ 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.

[ 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.
