[ Upstream commit 493924519b1fe3faab13ee621a43b0d0939abab1 ]

`nft_redir_inet_type.maxattrs` was being set, presumably because of a
cut-and-paste error, to `NFTA_MASQ_MAX`, instead of `NFTA_REDIR_MAX`.

[ Upstream commit 1f617b6b4c7a3d5ea7a56abb83a4c27733b60c2f ]

The values in the protocol registers are two bytes wide.  However, when
parsing the register loads, the code currently uses the larger 16-byte
size of a `union nf_inet_addr`.  Change it to use the (correct) size of
a `union nf_conntrack_man_proto` instead.

[ Upstream commit c77737b736ceb50fdf150434347dbd81ec76dbb1 ]

Customers using GKE 1.25 and 1.26 are facing conntrack issues
root caused to commit c9c3b6811f74 ("netfilter: conntrack: make
max chain length random").

Even if we assume Uniform Hashing, a bucket often reachs 8 chained
items while the load factor of the hash table is smaller than 0.5

With a limit of 16, we reach load factors of 3.
With a limit of 32, we reach load factors of 11.
With a limit of 40, we reach load factors of 15.
With a limit of 50, we reach load factors of 24.

This patch changes MIN_CHAINLEN to 50, to minimize risks.

Ideally, we could in the future add a cushion based on expected
load factor (2 * nf_conntrack_max / nf_conntrack_buckets),
because some setups might expect unusual values.

[ Upstream commit fdf6491193e411087ae77bcbc6468e3e1cff99ed ]

pernet tracking doesn't work correctly because other netns might have
set NETLINK_LISTEN_ALL_NSID on its event socket.

In this case its expected that events originating in other net
namespaces are also received.

Making pernet-tracking work while also honoring NETLINK_LISTEN_ALL_NSID
requires much more intrusive changes both in netlink and nfnetlink,
f.e. adding a 'setsockopt' callback that lets nfnetlink know that the
event socket entered (or left) ALL_NSID mode.

Move to global tracking instead: if there is an event socket anywhere
on the system, all net namespaces which have conntrack enabled and
use autobind mode will allocate the ecache extension.

netlink_has_listeners() returns false only if the given group has no
subscribers in any net namespace, the 'net' argument passed to
nfnetlink_has_listeners is only used to derive the protocol (nfnetlink),
it has no other effect.

For proper NETLINK_LISTEN_ALL_NSID-aware pernet tracking of event
listeners a new netlink_has_net_listeners() is also needed.

<title>netfilter: xt_length: use skb len to match in length_mt6</title>

[ Upstream commit 05c07c0c6cc8ec2278ace9871618c41f1365d1f5 ]

For IPv6 Jumbo packets, the ipv6_hdr(skb)-&gt;payload_len is always 0,
and its real payload_len ( &gt; 65535) is saved in hbh exthdr. With 0
length for the jumbo packets, it may mismatch.

To fix this, we can just use skb-&gt;len instead of parsing exthdrs, as
the hbh exthdr parsing has been done before coming to length_mt6 in
ip6_rcv_core() and br_validate_ipv6() and also the packet has been
trimmed according to the correct IPv6 (ext)hdr length there, and skb
len is trustable in length_mt6().

Note that this patch is especially needed after the IPv6 BIG TCP was
supported in kernel, which is using IPv6 Jumbo packets. Besides, to
match the packets greater than 65535 more properly, a v1 revision of
xt_length may be needed to extend "min, max" to u32 in the future,
and for now the IPv6 Jumbo packets can be matched by:

  # ip6tables -m length ! --length 0:65535

Fixes: 7c4e983c4f3c ("net: allow gso_max_size to exceed 65536")

[ Upstream commit 05c07c0c6cc8ec2278ace9871618c41f1365d1f5 ]

For IPv6 Jumbo packets, the ipv6_hdr(skb)-&gt;payload_len is always 0,
and its real payload_len ( &gt; 65535) is saved in hbh exthdr. With 0
length for the jumbo packets, it may mismatch.

To fix this, we can just use skb-&gt;len instead of parsing exthdrs, as
the hbh exthdr parsing has been done before coming to length_mt6 in
ip6_rcv_core() and br_validate_ipv6() and also the packet has been
trimmed according to the correct IPv6 (ext)hdr length there, and skb
len is trustable in length_mt6().

Note that this patch is especially needed after the IPv6 BIG TCP was
supported in kernel, which is using IPv6 Jumbo packets. Besides, to
match the packets greater than 65535 more properly, a v1 revision of
xt_length may be needed to extend "min, max" to u32 in the future,
and for now the IPv6 Jumbo packets can be matched by:

  # ip6tables -m length ! --length 0:65535
