[ Upstream commit f60e5990d9c1424af9dbca60a23ba2a1c7c1ce90 ]

We should not consult skb-&gt;sk for output decisions in xmit recursion
levels &gt; 0 in the stack. Otherwise local socket settings could influence
the result of e.g. tunnel encapsulation process.

ipv6 does not conform with this in three places:

1) ip6_fragment: we do consult ipv6_npinfo for frag_size

2) sk_mc_loop in ipv6 uses skb-&gt;sk and checks if we should
   loop the packet back to the local socket

3) ip6_skb_dst_mtu could query the settings from the user socket and
   force a wrong MTU

Furthermore:
In sk_mc_loop we could potentially land in WARN_ON(1) if we use a
PF_PACKET socket ontop of an IPv6-backed vxlan device.

Reuse xmit_recursion as we are currently only interested in protecting
tunnel devices.

[ Upstream commit 4ad19de8774e2a7b075b3e8ea48db85adcf33fa6 ]

tcp_v6_fill_cb() will be called twice if socket's state changes from
TCP_TIME_WAIT to TCP_LISTEN. That can result in control buffer data
corruption because in the second tcp_v6_fill_cb() call it's not copying
IP6CB(skb) anymore, but 'seq', 'end_seq', etc., so we can get weird and
unpredictable results. Performance loss of up to 1200% has been observed
in LTP/vxlan03 test.

This can be fixed by copying inet6_skb_parm to the beginning of 'cb'
only if xfrm6_policy_check() and tcp_v6_fill_cb() are going to be
called again.

Fixes: 2dc49d1680b53 ("tcp6: don't move IP6CB before xfrm6_policy_check()")

[ Upstream commit 6fd99094de2b83d1d4c8457f2c83483b2828e75a ]

A local route may have a lower hop_limit set than global routes do.

RFC 3756, Section 4.2.7, "Parameter Spoofing"

&gt;   1.  The attacker includes a Current Hop Limit of one or another small
&gt;       number which the attacker knows will cause legitimate packets to
&gt;       be dropped before they reach their destination.

&gt;   As an example, one possible approach to mitigate this threat is to
&gt;   ignore very small hop limits.  The nodes could implement a
&gt;   configurable minimum hop limit, and ignore attempts to set it below
&gt;   said limit.

Matt Grant reported frequent crashes in ipv6_select_ident when
udp6_ufo_fragment is called from openvswitch on a skb that doesn't
have a dst_entry set.

ipv6_proxy_select_ident generates the frag_id without using the dst
associated with the skb.  This approach was suggested by Vladislav
Yasevich.

[ Upstream commit 9145736d4862145684009d6a72a6e61324a9439e ]

1. For an IPv4 ping socket, ping_check_bind_addr does not check
   the family of the socket address that's passed in. Instead,
   make it behave like inet_bind, which enforces either that the
   address family is AF_INET, or that the family is AF_UNSPEC and
   the address is 0.0.0.0.
2. For an IPv6 ping socket, ping_check_bind_addr returns EINVAL
   if the socket family is not AF_INET6. Return EAFNOSUPPORT
   instead, for consistency with inet6_bind.
3. Make ping_v4_sendmsg and ping_v6_sendmsg return EAFNOSUPPORT
   instead of EINVAL if an incorrect socket address structure is
   passed in.
4. Make IPv6 ping sockets be IPv6-only. The code does not support
   IPv4, and it cannot easily be made to support IPv4 because
   the protocol numbers for ICMP and ICMPv6 are different. This
   makes connect(::ffff:192.0.2.1) fail with EAFNOSUPPORT instead
   of making the socket unusable.

Among other things, this fixes an oops that can be triggered by:

    int s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, IPPROTO_ICMP);
    struct sockaddr_in6 sin6 = {
        .sin6_family = AF_INET6,
        .sin6_addr = in6addr_any,
    };
    bind(s, (struct sockaddr *) &amp;sin6, sizeof(sin6));

<title>udp: only allow UFO for packets from SOCK_DGRAM sockets</title>

[ Upstream commit acf8dd0a9d0b9e4cdb597c2f74802f79c699e802 ]

If an over-MTU UDP datagram is sent through a SOCK_RAW socket to a
UFO-capable device, ip_ufo_append_data() sets skb-&gt;ip_summed to
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL unconditionally as all GSO code assumes transport layer
checksum is to be computed on segmentation. However, in this case,
skb-&gt;csum_start and skb-&gt;csum_offset are never set as raw socket
transmit path bypasses udp_send_skb() where they are usually set. As a
result, driver may access invalid memory when trying to calculate the
checksum and store the result (as observed in virtio_net driver).

Moreover, the very idea of modifying the userspace provided UDP header
is IMHO against raw socket semantics (I wasn't able to find a document
clearly stating this or the opposite, though). And while allowing
CHECKSUM_NONE in the UFO case would be more efficient, it would be a bit
too intrusive change just to handle a corner case like this. Therefore
disallowing UFO for packets from SOCK_DGRAM seems to be the best option.

[ Upstream commit acf8dd0a9d0b9e4cdb597c2f74802f79c699e802 ]

If an over-MTU UDP datagram is sent through a SOCK_RAW socket to a
UFO-capable device, ip_ufo_append_data() sets skb-&gt;ip_summed to
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL unconditionally as all GSO code assumes transport layer
checksum is to be computed on segmentation. However, in this case,
skb-&gt;csum_start and skb-&gt;csum_offset are never set as raw socket
transmit path bypasses udp_send_skb() where they are usually set. As a
result, driver may access invalid memory when trying to calculate the
checksum and store the result (as observed in virtio_net driver).

Moreover, the very idea of modifying the userspace provided UDP header
is IMHO against raw socket semantics (I wasn't able to find a document
clearly stating this or the opposite, though). And while allowing
CHECKSUM_NONE in the UFO case would be more efficient, it would be a bit
too intrusive change just to handle a corner case like this. Therefore
disallowing UFO for packets from SOCK_DGRAM seems to be the best option.

[ Upstream commit 3b4711757d7903ab6fa88a9e7ab8901b8227da60 ]

ipv6_cow_metrics() currently assumes only DST_HOST routes require
dynamic metrics allocation from inetpeer.  The assumption breaks
when ndisc discovered router with RTAX_MTU and RTAX_HOPLIMIT metric.
Refer to ndisc_router_discovery() in ndisc.c and note that dst_metric_set()
is called after the route is created.

This patch creates the metrics array (by calling dst_cow_metrics_generic) in
ipv6_cow_metrics().

Test:
radvd.conf:
interface qemubr0
{
	AdvLinkMTU 1300;
	AdvCurHopLimit 30;

	prefix fd00:face:face:face::/64
	{
		AdvOnLink on;
		AdvAutonomous on;
		AdvRouterAddr off;
	};
};

Before:
[root@qemu1 ~]# ip -6 r show | egrep -v unreachable
fd00:face:face:face::/64 dev eth0  proto kernel  metric 256  expires 27sec
fe80::/64 dev eth0  proto kernel  metric 256
default via fe80::74df:d0ff:fe23:8ef2 dev eth0  proto ra  metric 1024  expires 27sec

After:
[root@qemu1 ~]# ip -6 r show | egrep -v unreachable
fd00:face:face:face::/64 dev eth0  proto kernel  metric 256  expires 27sec mtu 1300
fe80::/64 dev eth0  proto kernel  metric 256  mtu 1300
default via fe80::74df:d0ff:fe23:8ef2 dev eth0  proto ra  metric 1024  expires 27sec mtu 1300 hoplimit 30

Fixes: 8e2ec639173f325 (ipv6: don't use inetpeer to store metrics for routes.)
