commit c3b704d4a4a265660e665df51b129e8425216ed1 upstream.

This is a follow up of commit 915d975b2ffa ("net: deal with integer
overflows in kmalloc_reserve()") based on David Laight feedback.

Back in 2010, I failed to realize malicious users could set dev-&gt;mtu
to arbitrary values. This mtu has been since limited to 0x7fffffff but
regardless of how big dev-&gt;mtu is, it makes no sense for igmpv3_newpack()
to allocate more than IP_MAX_MTU and risk various skb fields overflows.

Fixes: 57e1ab6eaddc ("igmp: refine skb allocations")

[ Upstream commit a171fbec88a2c730b108c7147ac5e7b2f5a02b47 ]

LWTUNNEL_XMIT_CONTINUE is implicitly assumed in ip(6)_finish_output2,
such that any positive return value from a xmit hook could cause
unexpected continue behavior, despite that related skb may have been
freed. This could be error-prone for future xmit hook ops. One of the
possible errors is to return statuses of dst_output directly.

To make the code safer, redefine LWTUNNEL_XMIT_CONTINUE value to
distinguish from dst_output statuses and check the continue
condition explicitly.

[ Upstream commit e89688e3e97868451a5d05b38a9d2633d6785cd4 ]

In tcp_retransmit_timer(), a window shrunk connection will be regarded
as timeout if 'tcp_jiffies32 - tp-&gt;rcv_tstamp &gt; TCP_RTO_MAX'. This is not
right all the time.

The retransmits will become zero-window probes in tcp_retransmit_timer()
if the 'snd_wnd==0'. Therefore, the icsk-&gt;icsk_rto will come up to
TCP_RTO_MAX sooner or later.

However, the timer can be delayed and be triggered after 122877ms, not
TCP_RTO_MAX, as I tested.

Therefore, 'tcp_jiffies32 - tp-&gt;rcv_tstamp &gt; TCP_RTO_MAX' is always true
once the RTO come up to TCP_RTO_MAX, and the socket will die.

Fix this by replacing the 'tcp_jiffies32' with '(u32)icsk-&gt;icsk_timeout',
which is exact the timestamp of the timeout.

However, "tp-&gt;rcv_tstamp" can restart from idle, then tp-&gt;rcv_tstamp
could already be a long time (minutes or hours) in the past even on the
first RTO. So we double check the timeout with the duration of the
retransmission.

Meanwhile, making "2 * TCP_RTO_MAX" as the timeout to avoid the socket
dying too soon.

<title>udp: re-score reuseport groups when connected sockets are present</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit f0ea27e7bfe1c34e1f451a63eb68faa1d4c3a86d ]

Contrary to TCP, UDP reuseport groups can contain TCP_ESTABLISHED
sockets. To support these properly we remember whether a group has
a connected socket and skip the fast reuseport early-return. In
effect we continue scoring all reuseport sockets and then choose the
one with the highest score.

The current code fails to re-calculate the score for the result of
lookup_reuseport. According to Kuniyuki Iwashima:

    1) SO_INCOMING_CPU is set
       -&gt; selected sk might have +1 score

    2) BPF prog returns ESTABLISHED and/or SO_INCOMING_CPU sk
       -&gt; selected sk will have more than 8

  Using the old score could trigger more lookups depending on the
  order that sockets are created.

    sk -&gt; sk (SO_INCOMING_CPU) -&gt; sk (ESTABLISHED)
    |     |
    `-&gt; select the next SO_INCOMING_CPU sk
          |
          `-&gt; select itself (We should save this lookup)

UDP sendmsg() is lockless, so ip_select_ident_segs()
can very well be run from multiple cpus [1]

Convert inet-&gt;inet_id to an atomic_t, but implement
a dedicated path for TCP, avoiding cost of a locked
instruction (atomic_add_return())

Note that this patch will cause a trivial merge conflict
because we added inet-&gt;flags in net-next tree.

<title>net: fix the RTO timer retransmitting skb every 1ms if linear option is enabled</title>

<id>e4dd0d3a2f64b8bd8029ec70f52bdbebd0644408</id>
<content type='text'>
In the real workload, I encountered an issue which could cause the RTO
timer to retransmit the skb per 1ms with linear option enabled. The amount
of lost-retransmitted skbs can go up to 1000+ instantly.

The root cause is that if the icsk_rto happens to be zero in the 6th round
(which is the TCP_THIN_LINEAR_RETRIES value), then it will always be zero
due to the changed calculation method in tcp_retransmit_timer() as follows:

icsk-&gt;icsk_rto = min(icsk-&gt;icsk_rto &lt;&lt; 1, TCP_RTO_MAX);

Above line could be converted to
icsk-&gt;icsk_rto = min(0 &lt;&lt; 1, TCP_RTO_MAX) = 0

Therefore, the timer expires so quickly without any doubt.

I read through the RFC 6298 and found that the RTO value can be rounded
up to a certain value, in Linux, say TCP_RTO_MIN as default, which is
regarded as the lower bound in this patch as suggested by Eric.

<title>nexthop: Fix infinite nexthop bucket dump when using maximum nexthop ID</title>
<updated>2023-08-09T20:45:12+00:00</updated>
<author>

<id>8743aeff5bc4dcb5b87b43765f48d5ac3ad7dd9f</id>
<content type='text'>
A netlink dump callback can return a positive number to signal that more
information needs to be dumped or zero to signal that the dump is
complete. In the second case, the core netlink code will append the
NLMSG_DONE message to the skb in order to indicate to user space that
the dump is complete.

The nexthop bucket dump callback always returns a positive number if
nexthop buckets were filled in the provided skb, even if the dump is
complete. This means that a dump will span at least two recvmsg() calls
as long as nexthop buckets are present. In the last recvmsg() call the
dump callback will not fill in any nexthop buckets because the previous
call indicated that the dump should restart from the last dumped nexthop
ID plus one.

 # ip link add name dummy1 up type dummy
 # ip nexthop add id 1 dev dummy1
 # ip nexthop add id 10 group 1 type resilient buckets 2
 # strace -e sendto,recvmsg -s 5 ip nexthop bucket

 recvmsg(3, {msg_name={sa_family=AF_NETLINK, nl_pid=0, nl_groups=00000000}, msg_namelen=12, msg_iov=[{iov_base=NULL, iov_len=0}], msg_iovlen=1, msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=MSG_TRUNC}, MSG_PEEK|MSG_TRUNC) = 128

 +++ exited with 0 +++

This behavior is both inefficient and buggy. If the last nexthop to be
dumped had the maximum ID of 0xffffffff, then the dump will restart from
0 (0xffffffff + 1) and never end:

 # ip link add name dummy1 up type dummy
 # ip nexthop add id 1 dev dummy1
 # ip nexthop add id $((2**32-1)) group 1 type resilient buckets 2
 # ip nexthop bucket
 id 4294967295 index 0 idle_time 5.55 nhid 1
 id 4294967295 index 1 idle_time 5.55 nhid 1
 id 4294967295 index 0 idle_time 5.55 nhid 1
 id 4294967295 index 1 idle_time 5.55 nhid 1
 [...]

Fix by adjusting the dump callback to return zero when the dump is
complete. After the fix only one recvmsg() call is made and the
NLMSG_DONE message is appended to the RTM_NEWNEXTHOPBUCKET responses:

 # ip link add name dummy1 up type dummy
 # ip nexthop add id 1 dev dummy1
 # ip nexthop add id $((2**32-1)) group 1 type resilient buckets 2

 +++ exited with 0 +++

Note that if the NLMSG_DONE message cannot be appended because of size
limitations, then another recvmsg() will be needed, but the core netlink
code will not invoke the dump callback and simply reply with a
NLMSG_DONE message since it knows that the callback previously returned
zero.

Add a test that fails before the fix:

 # ./fib_nexthops.sh -t basic_res
 [...]
 TEST: Maximum nexthop ID dump                                       [FAIL]
 [...]

And passes after it:

 # ./fib_nexthops.sh -t basic_res
 [...]
 TEST: Maximum nexthop ID dump                                       [ OK ]

rtm_dump_nexthop_bucket_nh() is used to dump nexthop buckets belonging
to a specific resilient nexthop group. The function returns a positive
return code (the skb length) upon both success and failure.

The above behavior is problematic. When a complete nexthop bucket dump
is requested, the function that walks the different nexthops treats the
non-zero return code as an error. This causes buckets belonging to
different resilient nexthop groups to be dumped using different buffers
even if they can all fit in the same buffer:

 # ip link add name dummy1 up type dummy
 # ip nexthop add id 1 dev dummy1
 # ip nexthop add id 10 group 1 type resilient buckets 1
 # ip nexthop add id 20 group 1 type resilient buckets 1
 # strace -e recvmsg -s 0 ip nexthop bucket
 [...]
 recvmsg(3, {msg_name={sa_family=AF_NETLINK, nl_pid=0, nl_groups=00000000}, msg_namelen=12, msg_iov=[...], msg_iovlen=1, msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 64
 id 10 index 0 idle_time 10.27 nhid 1
 [...]
 recvmsg(3, {msg_name={sa_family=AF_NETLINK, nl_pid=0, nl_groups=00000000}, msg_namelen=12, msg_iov=[...], msg_iovlen=1, msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 64
 id 20 index 0 idle_time 6.44 nhid 1
 [...]

Fix by only returning a non-zero return code when an error occurred and
restarting the dump from the bucket index we failed to fill in. This
allows buckets belonging to different resilient nexthop groups to be
dumped using the same buffer:

 # ip link add name dummy1 up type dummy
 # ip nexthop add id 1 dev dummy1
 # ip nexthop add id 10 group 1 type resilient buckets 1
 # ip nexthop add id 20 group 1 type resilient buckets 1
 # strace -e recvmsg -s 0 ip nexthop bucket
 [...]
 recvmsg(3, {msg_name={sa_family=AF_NETLINK, nl_pid=0, nl_groups=00000000}, msg_namelen=12, msg_iov=[...], msg_iovlen=1, msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 128
 id 10 index 0 idle_time 30.21 nhid 1
 id 20 index 0 idle_time 26.7 nhid 1
 [...]

While this change is more of a performance improvement change than an
actual bug fix, it is a prerequisite for a subsequent patch that does
fix a bug.
