[ Upstream commit 5cfb4c8d05b4409c4044cb9c05b19705c1d9818b ]

Since it's introduction in commit 69e3c75f4d54 ("net: TX_RING and
packet mmap"), TX_RING could be used from SOCK_DGRAM and SOCK_RAW
side. When used with SOCK_DGRAM only, the size_max &gt; dev-&gt;mtu +
reserve check should have reserve as 0, but currently, this is
unconditionally set (in it's original form as dev-&gt;hard_header_len).

I think this is not correct since tpacket_fill_skb() would then
take dev-&gt;mtu and dev-&gt;hard_header_len into account for SOCK_DGRAM,
the extra VLAN_HLEN could be possible in both cases. Presumably, the
reserve code was copied from packet_snd(), but later on missed the
check. Make it similar as we have it in packet_snd().

[ Upstream commit c72219b75fde768efccf7666342282fab7f9e4e7 ]

In case no struct sockaddr_ll has been passed to packet
socket's sendmsg() when doing a TX_RING flush run, then
skb-&gt;protocol is set to po-&gt;num instead, which is the protocol
passed via socket(2)/bind(2).

Applications only xmitting can go the path of allocating the
socket as socket(PF_PACKET, &lt;mode&gt;, 0) and do a bind(2) on the
TX_RING with sll_protocol of 0. That way, register_prot_hook()
is neither called on creation nor on bind time, which saves
cycles when there's no interest in capturing anyway.

That leaves us however with po-&gt;num 0 instead and therefore
the TX_RING flush run sets skb-&gt;protocol to 0 as well. Eric
reported that this leads to problems when using tools like
trafgen over bonding device. I.e. the bonding's hash function
could invoke the kernel's flow dissector, which depends on
skb-&gt;protocol being properly set. In the current situation, all
the traffic is then directed to a single slave.

Fix it up by inferring skb-&gt;protocol from the Ethernet header
when not set and we have ARPHRD_ETHER device type. This is only
done in case of SOCK_RAW and where we have a dev-&gt;hard_header_len
length. In case of ARPHRD_ETHER devices, this is guaranteed to
cover ETH_HLEN, and therefore being accessed on the skb after
the skb_store_bits().

[ Upstream commit 3c70c132488794e2489ab045559b0ce0afcf17de ]

Packet sockets can be used by various net devices and are not
really restricted to ARPHRD_ETHER device types. However, when
currently checking for the extra 4 bytes that can be transmitted
in VLAN case, our assumption is that we generally probe on
ARPHRD_ETHER devices. Therefore, before looking into Ethernet
header, check the device type first.

This also fixes the issue where non-ARPHRD_ETHER devices could
have no dev-&gt;hard_header_len in TX_RING SOCK_RAW case, and thus
the check would test unfilled linear part of the skb (instead
of non-linear).

Fixes: 57f89bfa2140 ("network: Allow af_packet to transmit +4 bytes for VLAN packets.")

[ Upstream commit 8fd6c80d9dd938ca338c70698533a7e304752846 ]

We concluded that the skb_probe_transport_header() should better be
called unconditionally. Avoiding the call into the flow dissector has
also not really much to do with the direct xmit mode.

While it seems that only virtio_net code makes use of GSO from non
RX/TX ring packet socket paths, we should probe for a transport header
nevertheless before they hit devices.

In tpacket_fill_skb() commit c1aad275b029 ("packet: set transport

to use skb_probe_transport_header()") was probing for a transport
header on the skb from a ring buffer slot, but at a time, where
the skb has _not even_ been filled with data yet. So that call into
the flow dissector is pretty useless. Lets do it after we've set
up the skb frags.

<title>packet: race condition in packet_bind</title>

[ Upstream commit 30f7ea1c2b5f5fb7462c5ae44fe2e40cb2d6a474 ]

There is a race conditions between packet_notifier and packet_bind{_spkt}.

It happens if packet_notifier(NETDEV_UNREGISTER) executes between the
time packet_bind{_spkt} takes a reference on the new netdevice and the
time packet_do_bind sets po-&gt;ifindex.
In this case the notification can be missed.
If this happens during a dev_change_net_namespace this can result in the
netdevice to be moved to the new namespace while the packet_sock in the
old namespace still holds a reference on it. When the netdevice is later
deleted in the new namespace the deletion hangs since the packet_sock
is not found in the new namespace' &amp;net-&gt;packet.sklist.
It can be reproduced with the script below.

This patch makes packet_do_bind check again for the presence of the
netdevice in the packet_sock's namespace after the synchronize_net
in unregister_prot_hook.
More in general it also uses the rcu lock for the duration of the bind
to stop dev_change_net_namespace/rollback_registered_many from
going past the synchronize_net following unlist_netdevice, so that
no NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifications can happen on the new netdevice
while the bind is executing. In order to do this some code from
packet_bind{_spkt} is consolidated into packet_do_dev.

import socket, os, time, sys
proto=7
realDev='em1'
vlanId=400
if len(sys.argv) &gt; 1:
   vlanId=int(sys.argv[1])
dev='vlan%d' % vlanId

s = socket.socket(socket.PF_PACKET, socket.SOCK_RAW, proto)

          (realDev, dev, vlanId))

   # dev should be moved while packet_do_bind is in synchronize net

Commit 7d82410950aa ("virtio: add explicit big-endian support to memory
accessors") accidentally changed the virtio_net header used by
AF_PACKET with PACKET_VNET_HDR from host-endian to big-endian.

Since virtio_legacy_is_little_endian() is a very long identifier,
define a vio_le macro and use that throughout the code instead of the
hard-coded 'false' for little-endian.

This restores the ABI to match 4.1 and earlier kernels, and makes my
test program work again.

Add fanout mode PACKET_FANOUT_EBPF that accepts an en extended BPF
program to select a socket.

Update the internal eBPF program by passing to socket option
SOL_PACKET/PACKET_FANOUT_DATA a file descriptor returned by bpf().

Add fanout mode PACKET_FANOUT_CBPF that accepts a classic BPF program
to select a socket.

This avoids having to keep adding special case fanout modes. One
example use case is application layer load balancing. The QUIC
protocol, for instance, encodes a connection ID in UDP payload.

Also add socket option SOL_PACKET/PACKET_FANOUT_DATA that updates data
associated with the socket group. Fanout mode PACKET_FANOUT_CBPF is the
only user so far.
