[ Upstream commit bac0f937c343d651874f83b265ca8f5070ed4f06 ]

As explained by Julian, fib_nh_scope is related to fib_nh_gw4, but
fib_info_update_nhc_saddr() needs the scope of the route, which is
the scope "before" fib_nh_scope, ie fib_nh_scope - 1.

This patch fixes the problem described in commit 747c14307214 ("ip: fix
dflt addr selection for connected nexthop").

<title>tcp: fix indefinite deferral of RTO with SACK reneging</title>

[ Upstream commit 3d2af9cce3133b3bc596a9d065c6f9d93419ccfb ]

This commit fixes a bug that can cause a TCP data sender to repeatedly
defer RTOs when encountering SACK reneging.

The bug is that when we're in fast recovery in a scenario with SACK
reneging, every time we get an ACK we call tcp_check_sack_reneging()
and it can note the apparent SACK reneging and rearm the RTO timer for
srtt/2 into the future. In some SACK reneging scenarios that can
happen repeatedly until the receive window fills up, at which point
the sender can't send any more, the ACKs stop arriving, and the RTO
fires at srtt/2 after the last ACK. But that can take far too long
(O(10 secs)), since the connection is stuck in fast recovery with a
low cwnd that cannot grow beyond ssthresh, even if more bandwidth is
available.

This fix changes the logic in tcp_check_sack_reneging() to only rearm
the RTO timer if data is cumulatively ACKed, indicating forward
progress. This avoids this kind of nearly infinite loop of RTO timer
re-arming. In addition, this meets the goals of
tcp_check_sack_reneging() in handling Windows TCP behavior that looks
temporarily like SACK reneging but is not really.

Many thanks to Jakub Kicinski and Neil Spring, who reported this issue
and provided critical packet traces that enabled root-causing this
issue. Also, many thanks to Jakub Kicinski for testing this fix.

[ Upstream commit ec791d8149ff60c40ad2074af3b92a39c916a03f ]

The type of sk_rcvbuf and sk_sndbuf in struct sock is int, and
in tcp_add_backlog(), the variable limit is caculated by adding
sk_rcvbuf, sk_sndbuf and 64 * 1024, it may exceed the max value
of int and overflow. This patch reduces the limit budget by
halving the sndbuf to solve this issue since ACK packets are much
smaller than the payload.

[ Upstream commit 1fcc064b305a1aadeff0d4bff961094d27660acd ]

Currently netfilter's rpfilter and fib modules implicitely initialise
-&gt;flowic_uid with 0. This is normally the root UID. However, this isn't
the case in user namespaces, where user ID 0 is mapped to a different
kernel UID. By initialising -&gt;flowic_uid with sock_net_uid(), we get
the root UID of the user namespace, thus keeping the same behaviour
whether or not we're running in a user namepspace.

Note, this is similar to commit 8bcfd0925ef1 ("ipv4: add missing
initialization for flowi4_uid"), which fixed the rp_filter sysctl.

[ Upstream commit 69421bf98482d089e50799f45e48b25ce4a8d154 ]

When we call connect() for a UDP socket in a reuseport group, we have
to update sk-&gt;sk_reuseport_cb-&gt;has_conns to 1.  Otherwise, the kernel
could select a unconnected socket wrongly for packets sent to the
connected socket.

However, the current way to set has_conns is illegal and possible to
trigger that problem.  reuseport_has_conns() changes has_conns under
rcu_read_lock(), which upgrades the RCU reader to the updater.  Then,
it must do the update under the updater's lock, reuseport_lock, but
it doesn't for now.

For this reason, there is a race below where we fail to set has_conns
resulting in the wrong socket selection.  To avoid the race, let's split
the reader and updater with proper locking.

but we put the test there for ease of review.  [0]

For the record, usually, sk_reuseport_cb is changed under lock_sock().
The only exception is reuseport_grow() &amp; TCP reqsk migration case.

  1) shutdown() TCP listener, which is moved into the latter part of
     reuse-&gt;socks[] to migrate reqsk.

  2) New listen() overflows reuse-&gt;socks[] and call reuseport_grow().

  3) reuse-&gt;max_socks overflows u16 with the new listener.

  4) reuseport_grow() pops the old shutdown()ed listener from the array
     and update its sk-&gt;sk_reuseport_cb as NULL without lock_sock().

shutdown()ed TCP sk-&gt;sk_reuseport_cb can be changed without lock_sock(),
but, reuseport_has_conns_set() is called only for UDP under lock_sock(),
so likely(reuse) never be false in reuseport_has_conns_set().

commit e993ffe3da4bcddea0536b03be1031bf35cd8d85 upstream.

We need an efficient way in io_uring to check whether a socket supports
zerocopy with msghdr provided ubuf_info. Add a new flag into the struct
socket flags fields.

<title>net-next: Fix IP_UNICAST_IF option behavior for connected sockets</title>

[ Upstream commit 0e4d354762cefd3e16b4cff8988ff276e45effc4 ]

The IP_UNICAST_IF socket option is used to set the outgoing interface
for outbound packets.

The IP_UNICAST_IF socket option was added as it was needed by the
Wine project, since no other existing option (SO_BINDTODEVICE socket
option, IP_PKTINFO socket option or the bind function) provided the
needed characteristics needed by the IP_UNICAST_IF socket option. [1]
The IP_UNICAST_IF socket option works well for unconnected sockets,
that is, the interface specified by the IP_UNICAST_IF socket option
is taken into consideration in the route lookup process when a packet
is being sent. However, for connected sockets, the outbound interface
is chosen when connecting the socket, and in the route lookup process
which is done when a packet is being sent, the interface specified by
the IP_UNICAST_IF socket option is being ignored.

This inconsistent behavior was reported and discussed in an issue
opened on systemd's GitHub project [2]. Also, a bug report was
submitted in the kernel's bugzilla [3].

To understand the problem in more detail, we can look at what happens
for UDP packets over IPv4 (The same analysis was done separately in
the referenced systemd issue).
When a UDP packet is sent the udp_sendmsg function gets called and
the following happens:

1. The oif member of the struct ipcm_cookie ipc (which stores the
output interface of the packet) is initialized by the ipcm_init_sk
function to inet-&gt;sk.sk_bound_dev_if (the device set by the
SO_BINDTODEVICE socket option).

2. If the IP_PKTINFO socket option was set, the oif member gets
overridden by the call to the ip_cmsg_send function.

3. If no output interface was selected yet, the interface specified
by the IP_UNICAST_IF socket option is used.

4. If the socket is connected and no destination address is
specified in the send function, the struct ipcm_cookie ipc is not
taken into consideration and the cached route, that was calculated in
the connect function is being used.

Thus, for a connected socket, the IP_UNICAST_IF sockopt isn't taken
into consideration.

This patch corrects the behavior of the IP_UNICAST_IF socket option
for connect()ed sockets by taking into consideration the
IP_UNICAST_IF sockopt when connecting the socket.

In order to avoid reconnecting the socket, this option is still
ignored when applied on an already connected socket until connect()
is called again by the Richard Gobert.

Change the __ip4_datagram_connect function, which is called during
socket connection, to take into consideration the interface set by
the IP_UNICAST_IF socket option, in a similar way to what is done in
the udp_sendmsg function.

[ Upstream commit aacd467c0a576e5e44d2de4205855dc0fe43f6fb ]

tcp_md5sig_pool_populated can be read while another thread
changes its value.

The race has no consequence because allocations
are protected with tcp_md5sig_mutex.

This patch adds READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE() to document
the race and silence KCSAN.

[ Upstream commit 62c07983bef9d3e78e71189441e1a470f0d1e653 ]

Christophe Leroy reported a ~80ms latency spike
happening at first TCP connect() time.

This is because __inet_hash_connect() uses get_random_once()
to populate a perturbation table which became quite big
after commit 4c2c8f03a5ab ("tcp: increase source port perturb table to 2^16")

get_random_once() uses DO_ONCE(), which block hard irqs for the duration
of the operation.

This patch adds DO_ONCE_SLOW() which uses a mutex instead of a spinlock
for operations where we prefer to stay in process context.

Then __inet_hash_connect() can use get_random_slow_once()
to populate its perturbation table.

Fixes: 190cc82489f4 ("tcp: change source port randomizarion at connect() time")
