[ Upstream commit 31b0b385f69d8d5491a4bca288e25e63f1d945d0 ]

The slab name ends up being visible in the directory structure under
/sys, and even if you don't have access rights to the file you can see
the filenames.

Just use a 64-bit counter instead of the pointer to the 'net' structure
to generate a unique name.

This code will go away in 4.7 when the conntrack code moves to a single
kmemcache, but this is the backportable simple solution to avoiding
leaking kernel pointers to user space.

commit 71563f3414e917c62acd8e0fb0edf8ed6af63e4b upstream.

It is possible that we bind against a local socket in early_demux when we
are actually going to want to forward it.  In this case, the socket serves
no purpose and only serves to confuse things (particularly functions which
implicitly expect sk_fullsock to be true, like ip_local_out).
Additionally, skb_set_owner_w is totally broken for non full-socks.

commit 05f00505a89acd21f5d0d20f5797dfbc4cf85243 upstream.

I overlooked the svc-&gt;sched_data usage from schedulers
when the services were converted to RCU in 3.10. Now
the rare ipvsadm -E command can change the scheduler
but due to the reverse order of ip_vs_bind_scheduler
and ip_vs_unbind_scheduler we provide new sched_data
to the old scheduler resulting in a crash.

To fix it without changing the scheduler methods we
have to use synchronize_rcu() only for the editing case.
It means all svc-&gt;scheduler readers should expect a
NULL value. To avoid breakage for the service listing
and ipvsadm -R we can use the "none" name to indicate
that scheduler is not assigned, a state when we drop
new connections.

<title>ipvs: do not use random local source address for tunnels</title>

commit 4754957f04f5f368792a0eb7dab0ae89fb93dcfd upstream.

Michael Vallaly reports about wrong source address used
in rare cases for tunneled traffic. Looks like
__ip_vs_get_out_rt in 3.10+ is providing uninitialized
dest_dst-&gt;dst_saddr.ip because ip_vs_dest_dst_alloc uses
kmalloc. While we retry after seeing EINVAL from routing
for data that does not look like valid local address, it
still succeeded when this memory was previously used from
other dests and with different local addresses. As result,
we can use valid local address that is not suitable for
our real server.

Fix it by providing 0.0.0.0 every time our cache is refreshed.
By this way we will get preferred source address from routing.

commit ba378ca9c04a5fc1b2cf0f0274a9d02eb3d1bad9 upstream.

Fix lookup of existing match/target structures in the corresponding list
by skipping the family check if NFPROTO_UNSPEC is used.

This is resulting in the allocation and insertion of one match/target
structure for each use of them. So this not only bloats memory
consumption but also severely affects the time to reload the ruleset
from the iptables-compat utility.

After this patch, iptables-compat-restore and iptables-compat take
almost the same time to reload large rulesets.

Currenlty nf_tables chains added in one network namespace are being

being an unprivileged user can cause any network packets to be dropped.

Address this by simply not running nf_tables chains in the wrong
