[ Upstream commit 03645a11a570d52e70631838cb786eb4253eb463 ]

ip6_datagram_connect() is doing a lot of socket changes without
socket being locked.

This looks wrong, at least for udp_lib_rehash() which could corrupt
lists because of concurrent udp_sk(sk)-&gt;udp_portaddr_hash accesses.

Before commit daad151263cf ("ipv6: Make ipv6_is_mld() inline and use it
from ip6_mc_input().") MLD packets were only processed locally. After the
change, a copy of MLD packet goes through ip6_mr_input, causing
MRT6MSG_NOCACHE message to be generated to user space.

Make MLD packet only processed locally.

The vti6_rcv_cb and vti_rcv_cb calls were leaving the skb-&gt;mark modified
after completing the function.  This resulted in the original skb-&gt;mark
value being lost.  Since we only need skb-&gt;mark to be set for
xfrm_policy_check we can pull the assignment into the rcv_cb calls and then
just restore the original mark after xfrm_policy_check has been completed.

Instead of modifying skb-&gt;mark we can simply modify the flowi_mark that is
generated as a result of the xfrm_decode_session.  By doing this we don't
need to actually touch the skb-&gt;mark and it can be preserved as it passes
out through the tunnel.

When the kernel deleted a vti6 interface, this interface was not removed from
the tunnels list. Thus, when the ip6_vti module was removed, this old interface
was found and the kernel tried to delete it again. This was leading to a kernel

[ Upstream commit beb39db59d14990e401e235faf66a6b9b31240b0 ]

We have two problems in UDP stack related to bogus checksums :

1) We return -EAGAIN to application even if receive queue is not empty.
   This breaks applications using edge trigger epoll()

2) Under UDP flood, we can loop forever without yielding to other
   processes, potentially hanging the host, especially on non SMP.

This patch is an attempt to make things better.

We might in the future add extra support for rt applications
wanting to better control time spent doing a recv() in a hostile
environment. For example we could validate checksums before queuing
packets in socket receive queue.

[ 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 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()")
