commit 11052589cf5c0bab3b4884d423d5f60c38fcf25d upstream.

Commit e21145a9871a ("ipv4: namespacify ip_early_demux sysctl knob") made
it possible to enable/disable early_demux on a per-netns basis.  Then, we
introduced two knobs, tcp_early_demux and udp_early_demux, to switch it for
TCP/UDP in commit dddb64bcb346 ("net: Add sysctl to toggle early demux for
tcp and udp").  However, the .proc_handler() was wrong and actually
disabled us from changing the behaviour in each netns.

We can execute early_demux if net.ipv4.ip_early_demux is on and each proto
.early_demux() handler is not NULL.  When we toggle (tcp|udp)_early_demux,
the change itself is saved in each netns variable, but the .early_demux()
handler is a global variable, so the handler is switched based on the
init_net's sysctl variable.  Thus, netns (tcp|udp)_early_demux knobs have
nothing to do with the logic.  Whether we CAN execute proto .early_demux()
is always decided by init_net's sysctl knob, and whether we DO it or not is
by each netns ip_early_demux knob.

This patch namespacifies (tcp|udp)_early_demux again.  For now, the users
of the .early_demux() handler are TCP and UDP only, and they are called
directly to avoid retpoline.  So, we can remove the .early_demux() handler
from inet6?_protos and need not dereference them in ip6?_rcv_finish_core().
If another proto needs .early_demux(), we can restore it at that time.

[ Upstream commit dcc32f4f183ab8479041b23a1525d48233df1d43 ]

This reverts commit 6af1799aaf3f1bc8defedddfa00df3192445bbf3.

Commit 6af1799aaf3f ("ipv6: drop incoming packets having a v4mapped
source address") introduced an input check against v4mapped addresses.
Use of such addresses on the wire is indeed questionable and not
allowed on public Internet. As the commit pointed out

  https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-itojun-v6ops-v4mapped-harmful-02

lists potential issues.

Unfortunately there are applications which use v4mapped addresses,
and breaking them is a clear regression. For example v4mapped
addresses (or any semi-valid addresses, really) may be used
for uni-direction event streams or packet export.

Since the issue which sparked the addition of the check was with
TCP and request_socks in particular push the check down to TCPv6
and DCCP. This restores the ability to receive UDPv6 packets with
v4mapped address as the source.

Keep using the IPSTATS_MIB_INHDRERRORS statistic to minimize the
user-visible changes.

[ Upstream commit 6af1799aaf3f1bc8defedddfa00df3192445bbf3 ]

This began with a syzbot report. syzkaller was injecting
IPv6 TCP SYN packets having a v4mapped source address.

After an unsuccessful 4-tuple lookup, TCP creates a request
socket (SYN_RECV) and calls reqsk_queue_hash_req()

reqsk_queue_hash_req() calls sk_ehashfn(sk)

At this point we have AF_INET6 sockets, and the heuristic
used by sk_ehashfn() to either hash the IPv4 or IPv6 addresses
is to use ipv6_addr_v4mapped(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_v6_daddr)

For the particular spoofed packet, we end up hashing V4 addresses
which were not initialized by the TCP IPv6 stack, so KMSAN fired
a warning.

I first fixed sk_ehashfn() to test both source and destination addresses,
but then faced various problems, including user-space programs
like packetdrill that had similar assumptions.

Instead of trying to fix the whole ecosystem, it is better
to admit that we have a dual stack behavior, and that we
can not build linux kernels without V4 stack anyway.

The dual stack API automatically forces the traffic to be IPv4
if v4mapped addresses are used at bind() or connect(), so it makes
no sense to allow IPv6 traffic to use the same v4mapped class.

list_del() leaves the skb-&gt;next pointer poisoned, which can then lead to
 a crash in e.g. OVS forwarding.  For example, setting up an OVS VXLAN
 forwarding bridge on sfc as per:

========
$ ovs-vsctl show
5dfd9c47-f04b-4aaa-aa96-4fbb0a522a30

        Port "enp6s0f0"
            Interface "enp6s0f0"
        Port "vxlan0"
            Interface "vxlan0"

    ovs_version: "2.5.0"
========
(where 10.0.0.5 is an address on enp6s0f1)
and sending traffic across it will lead to the following panic:

[ Upstream commit 22f6bbb7bcfcef0b373b0502a7ff390275c575dd ]

list_del() leaves the skb-&gt;next pointer poisoned, which can then lead to
 a crash in e.g. OVS forwarding.  For example, setting up an OVS VXLAN
 forwarding bridge on sfc as per:

========
$ ovs-vsctl show

    Bridge "br0"
        Port "br0"

    ovs_version: "2.5.0"
========
(where 10.0.0.5 is an address on enp6s0f1)
and sending traffic across it will lead to the following panic:

<title>ipv6: drop non loopback packets claiming to originate from ::1</title>

We lack a saddr check for ::1. This causes security issues e.g. with acls
permitting connections from ::1 because of assumption that these originate
from local machine.

Assuming a source address of ::1 is local seems reasonable.
RFC4291 doesn't allow such a source address either, so drop such packets.

<title>net: Add sysctl to toggle early demux for tcp and udp</title>

<content type='text'>
Certain system process significant unconnected UDP workload.
It would be preferrable to disable UDP early demux for those systems
and enable it for TCP only.

By disabling UDP demux, we see these slight gains on an ARM64 system-
782 -&gt; 788Mbps unconnected single stream UDPv4
633 -&gt; 654Mbps unconnected UDPv4 different sources

The performance impact can change based on CPU architecure and cache
sizes. There will not much difference seen if entire UDP hash table
is in cache.

Both sysctls are enabled by default to preserve existing behavior.

v1-&gt;v2: Change function pointer instead of adding conditional as
suggested by Stephen.

v2-&gt;v3: Read once in callers to avoid issues due to compiler
optimizations. Also update commit message with the tests.

v3-&gt;v4: Store and use read once result instead of querying pointer
again incorrectly.

v4-&gt;v5: Refactor to avoid errors due to compilation with IPV6={m,n}
