[ Upstream commit 093d04d42fa094f6740bb188f0ad0c215ff61e2c ]

In function ndisc_redirect_rcv(), the skb-&gt;data points to the transport
header, but function icmpv6_notify() need the skb-&gt;data points to the
inner IP packet. So before using icmpv6_notify() to propagate redirect,
change skb-&gt;data to point the inner IP packet that triggered the sending
of the Redirect, and introduce struct rd_msg to make it easy.

[ Upstream commit e337e24d6624e74a558aa69071e112a65f7b5758 ]

If in either of the above functions inet_csk_route_child_sock() or
__inet_inherit_port() fails, the newsk will not be freed:

unreferenced object 0xffff88022e8a92c0 (size 1592):

    [&lt;ffffffff814a7cc3&gt;] netif_receive_skb+0x50/0x82

This happens, because sk_clone_lock initializes sk_refcnt to 2, and thus
a single sock_put() is not enough to free the memory. Additionally, things
like xfrm, memcg, cookie_values,... may have been initialized.
We have to free them properly.

This is fixed by forcing a call to tcp_done(), ending up in
inet_csk_destroy_sock, doing the final sock_put(). tcp_done() is necessary,
because it ends up doing all the cleanup on xfrm, memcg, cookie_values,
xfrm,...

Before calling tcp_done, we have to set the socket to SOCK_DEAD, to
force it entering inet_csk_destroy_sock. To avoid the warning in
inet_csk_destroy_sock, inet_num has to be set to 0.
As inet_csk_destroy_sock does a dec on orphan_count, we first have to
increase it.

Calling tcp_done() allows us to remove the calls to
tcp_clear_xmit_timer() and tcp_cleanup_congestion_control().

A similar approach is taken for dccp by calling dccp_done().

This is in the kernel since 093d282321 (tproxy: fix hash locking issue
when using port redirection in __inet_inherit_port()), thus since
version &gt;= 2.6.37.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says:

====================
The following patchset contains fixes for your net tree, two of them
are due to relatively recent changes, one has been a longstanding bug,
they are:

* Fix incorrect usage of rt_gateway in the H.323 helper, from
  Julian Anastasov.

* Skip re-route in nf_nat code for ICMP traffic. If CONFIG_XFRM is
  enabled, we waste cycles to look up for the route again. This problem
  seems to be there since really long time. From Ulrich Weber.

* Fix mismatching section in nf_conntrack_reasm, from Hein Tibosch.

ICMP tuples have id in src and type/code in dst.
So comparing src.u.all with dst.u.all will always fail here
and ip_xfrm_me_harder() is called for every ICMP packet,

Commit a02e4b7dae4551(Demark default hoplimit as zero) only changes the
hoplimit checking condition and default value in ip6_dst_hoplimit, not
zeros all hoplimit default value.

Keep the zeroing ip6_template_metrics[RTAX_HOPLIMIT - 1] to force it as
const, cause as a37e6e344910(net: force dst_default_metrics to const
section)
