[ Upstream commit b5c2d49544e5930c96e2632a7eece3f4325a1888 ]

If an ip6 tunnel is configured to inherit the traffic class from
the inner header, the dst_cache must be disabled or it will foul
the policy routing.

The issue is apprently there since at leat Linux-2.6.12-rc2.

commit b4e479a96fc398ccf83bb1cffb4ffef8631beaf1 upstream.

When xfrm is applied to TSO/GSO packets, it follows this path:

    xfrm_output() -&gt; xfrm_output_gso() -&gt; skb_gso_segment()

where skb_gso_segment() relies on skb-&gt;protocol to function properly.

This patch sets skb-&gt;protocol to ETH_P_IPV6 before dst_output() is called,
fixing a bug where GSO packets sent through an ipip6 tunnel are dropped
when xfrm is involved.

[ Upstream commit ac6e780070e30e4c35bd395acfe9191e6268bdd3 ]

With syzkaller help, Marco Grassi found a bug in TCP stack,
crashing in tcp_collapse()

Root cause is that sk_filter() can truncate the incoming skb,
but TCP stack was not really expecting this to happen.
It probably was expecting a simple DROP or ACCEPT behavior.

We first need to make sure no part of TCP header could be removed.
Then we need to adjust TCP_SKB_CB(skb)-&gt;end_seq

Many thanks to syzkaller team and Marco for giving us a reproducer.

<title>ipv6: correctly add local routes when lo goes up</title>

[ Upstream commit a220445f9f4382c36a53d8ef3e08165fa27f7e2c ]

The goal of the patch is to fix this scenario:
 ip link add dummy1 type dummy
 ip link set dummy1 up
 ip link set lo down ; ip link set lo up

After that sequence, the local route to the link layer address of dummy1 is
not there anymore.

When the loopback is set down, all local routes are deleted by
addrconf_ifdown()/rt6_ifdown(). At this time, the rt6_info entry still
exists, because the corresponding idev has a reference on it. After the rcu
grace period, dst_rcu_free() is called, and thus ___dst_free(), which will
set obsolete to DST_OBSOLETE_DEAD.

In this case, init_loopback() is called before dst_rcu_free(), thus
obsolete is still sets to something &lt;= 0. So, the function doesn't add the
route again. To avoid that race, let's check the rt6 refcnt instead.

Fixes: 25fb6ca4ed9c ("net IPv6 : Fix broken IPv6 routing table after loopback down-up")
Fixes: a881ae1f625c ("ipv6: don't call addrconf_dst_alloc again when enable lo")

<title>ipmr, ip6mr: fix scheduling while atomic and a deadlock with ipmr_get_route</title>

[ Upstream commit 2cf750704bb6d7ed8c7d732e071dd1bc890ea5e8 ]

Since the commit below the ipmr/ip6mr rtnl_unicast() code uses the portid
instead of the previous dst_pid which was copied from in_skb's portid.
Since the skb is new the portid is 0 at that point so the packets are sent
to the kernel and we get scheduling while atomic or a deadlock (depending
on where it happens) by trying to acquire rtnl two times.
Also since this is RTM_GETROUTE, it can be triggered by a normal user.

Here's the sleeping while atomic trace:

<title>ip6_gre: fix flowi6_proto value in ip6gre_xmit_other()</title>

[ Upstream commit db32e4e49ce2b0e5fcc17803d011a401c0a637f6 ]

Similar to commit 3be07244b733 ("ip6_gre: fix flowi6_proto value in
xmit path"), set flowi6_proto to IPPROTO_GRE for output route lookup.

Up until now, ip6gre_xmit_other() has set flowi6_proto to a bogus value.
This affected output route lookup for packets sent on an ip6gretap device
in cases where routing was dependent on the value of flowi6_proto.

Since the correct proto is already set in the tunnel flowi6 template via
commit 252f3f5a1189 ("ip6_gre: Set flowi6_proto as IPPROTO_GRE in xmit
path."), simply delete the line setting the incorrect flowi6_proto value.

<title>tunnels: Remove encapsulation offloads on decap.</title>

commit a09a4c8dd1ec7f830e1fb9e59eb72bddc965d168 upstream.

If a packet is either locally encapsulated or processed through GRO
it is marked with the offloads that it requires. However, when it is
decapsulated these tunnel offload indications are not removed. This
means that if we receive an encapsulated TCP packet, aggregate it with
GRO, decapsulate, and retransmit the resulting frame on a NIC that does
not support encapsulation, we won't be able to take advantage of hardware
offloads even though it is just a simple TCP packet at this point.

This fixes the problem by stripping off encapsulation offload indications
when packets are decapsulated.

The performance impacts of this bug are significant. In a test where a
Geneve encapsulated TCP stream is sent to a hypervisor, GRO'ed, decapsulated,
and bridged to a VM performance is improved by 60% (5Gbps-&gt;8Gbps) as a
result of avoiding unnecessary segmentation at the VM tap interface.

<title>net: disable fragment reassembly if high_thresh is set to zero</title>

commit 30759219f562cfaaebe7b9c1d1c0e6b5445c69b0 upstream.

Before commit 6d7b857d541e ("net: use lib/percpu_counter API for
fragmentation mem accounting"), setting high threshold to 0 prevented
fragment reassembly as first fragment would be always evicted before
second could be added to the queue. While inefficient, some users
apparently relied on it.

Since the commit mentioned above, a percpu counter is used for
reassembly memory accounting and high batch size avoids taking slow path
in most common scenarios. As a result, a whole full sized packet can be
reassembled without the percpu counter's main counter changing its
value so that even with high_thresh set to 0, fragmented packets can be
still reassembled and processed.

Add explicit checks preventing reassembly if high threshold is zero.

[ Upstream commit 03c2778a938aaba0893f6d6cdc29511d91a79848 ]

Neither the failure or success paths of ping_v6_sendmsg release
the dst it acquires.  This leads to a flood of warnings from
"net/core/dst.c:288 dst_release" on older kernels that
don't have 8bf4ada2e21378816b28205427ee6b0e1ca4c5f1 backported.

That patch optimistically hoped this had been fixed post 3.10, but
it seems at least one case wasn't, where I've seen this triggered
a lot from machines doing unprivileged icmp sockets.

[ Upstream commit 20a2b49fc538540819a0c552877086548cff8d8d ]

When sending an ack in SYN_RECV state, we must scale the offered
window if wscale option was negotiated and accepted.

Tested:
 Following packetdrill test demonstrates the issue :

0.000 socket(..., SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP) = 3
+0 setsockopt(3, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, [1], 4) = 0

+0 bind(3, ..., ...) = 0

// Establish a connection.
