commit f19c44452b58a84d95e209b847f5495d91c9983a upstream.

IPv6 nd target mask was not getting populated in flow dump.

In the function __ovs_nla_put_key the icmp code mask field was checked
instead of icmp code key field to classify the flow as neighbour discovery.

<title>openvswitch: always update flow key after nat</title>

[ Upstream commit 60b44ca6bd7518dd38fa2719bc9240378b6172c3 ]

During NAT, a tuple collision may occur.  When this happens, openvswitch
will make a second pass through NAT which will perform additional packet
modification.  This will update the skb data, but not the flow key that
OVS uses.  This means that future flow lookups, and packet matches will
have incorrect data.  This has been supported since
5d50aa83e2c8 ("openvswitch: support asymmetric conntrack").

That commit failed to properly update the sw_flow_key attributes, since
it only called the ovs_ct_nat_update_key once, rather than each time
ovs_ct_nat_execute was called.  As these two operations are linked, the
ovs_ct_nat_execute() function should always make sure that the
sw_flow_key is updated after a successful call through NAT infrastructure.

<title>openvswitch: Fix setting ipv6 fields causing hw csum failure</title>

Ipv6 ttl, label and tos fields are modified without first
pulling/pushing the ipv6 header, which would have updated
the hw csum (if available). This might cause csum validation
when sending the packet to the stack, as can be seen in
the trace below.

Fix this by updating skb-&gt;csum if available.

<title>net: openvswitch: Fix ct_state nat flags for conns arriving from tc</title>

Netfilter conntrack maintains NAT flags per connection indicating
whether NAT was configured for the connection. Openvswitch maintains
NAT flags on the per packet flow key ct_state field, indicating
whether NAT was actually executed on the packet.

When a packet misses from tc to ovs the conntrack NAT flags are set.
However, NAT was not necessarily executed on the packet because the
connection's state might still be in NEW state. As such, openvswitch
wrongly assumes that NAT was executed and sets an incorrect flow key
NAT flags.

Fix this, by flagging to openvswitch which NAT was actually done in
act_ct via tc_skb_ext and tc_skb_cb to the openvswitch module, so
the packet flow key NAT flags will be correctly set.

Netfilter updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for net-next. This
includes one patch to update ovs and act_ct to use nf_ct_put() instead
of nf_conntrack_put().

1) Add netns_tracker to nfnetlink_log and masquerade, from Eric Dumazet.

2) Remove redundant rcu read-size lock in nf_tables packet path.

3) Replace BUG() by WARN_ON_ONCE() in nft_payload.

4) Consolidate rule verdict tracing.

5) Replace WARN_ON() by WARN_ON_ONCE() in nf_tables core.

6) Make counter support built-in in nf_tables.

7) Add new field to conntrack object to identify locally generated
   traffic, from Florian Westphal.

8) Prevent NAT from shadowing well-known ports, from Florian Westphal.

9) Merge nf_flow_table_{ipv4,ipv6} into nf_flow_table_inet, also from
   Florian.

10) Remove redundant pointer in nft_pipapo AVX2 support, from Colin Ian King.

11) Replace opencoded max() in conntrack, from Jiapeng Chong.

12) Update conntrack to use refcount_t API, from Florian Westphal.

13) Move ip_ct_attach indirection into the nf_ct_hook structure.

14) Constify several pointer object in the netfilter codebase,
    from Florian Westphal.

15) Tree-wide replacement of nf_conntrack_put() by nf_ct_put(), also
    from Florian.

16) Fix egress splat due to incorrect rcu notation, from Florian.

17) Move stateful fields of connlimit, last, quota, numgen and limit
    out of the expression data area.

18) Build a blob to represent the ruleset in nf_tables, this is a
    requirement of the new register tracking infrastructure.

19) Add NFT_REG32_NUM to define the maximum number of 32-bit registers.

20) Add register tracking infrastructure to skip redundant
    store-to-register operations, this includes support for payload,
    meta and bitwise expresssions.

Its the same as nf_conntrack_put(), but without the
need for an indirect call.  The downside is a module dependency on
nf_conntrack, but all of these already depend on conntrack anyway.

Convert nf_conn reference counting from atomic_t to refcount_t based api.
refcount_t api provides more runtime sanity checks and will warn on
certain constructs, e.g. refcount_inc() on a zero reference count, which
usually indicates use-after-free.

For this reason template allocation is changed to init the refcount to
1, the subsequenct add operations are removed.

Likewise, init_conntrack() is changed to set the initial refcount to 1
instead refcount_inc().

This is safe because the new entry is not (yet) visible to other cpus.
