When calculating rb-&gt;frames_per_block * req-&gt;tp_block_nr the result
can overflow. Check it for overflow without limiting the total buffer
size to UINT_MAX.

This change fixes support for packet ring buffers &gt;= UINT_MAX.

<title>af_packet: fix raw sockets over 6in4 tunnel</title>

<id>88a8121dc1d3d0dbddd411b79ed236b6b6ea415c</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit cb9f1b783850, scapy (which uses an AF_PACKET socket in
SOCK_RAW mode) is unable to send a basic icmp packet over a sit tunnel:

Here is a example of the setup:
$ ip link set ntfp2 up
$ ip addr add 10.125.0.1/24 dev ntfp2
$ ip tunnel add tun1 mode sit ttl 64 local 10.125.0.1 remote 10.125.0.2 dev ntfp2
$ ip addr add fd00:cafe:cafe::1/128 dev tun1
$ ip link set dev tun1 up
$ ip route add fd00:200::/64 dev tun1
$ scapy
&gt;&gt;&gt; p = []
&gt;&gt;&gt; p += IPv6(src='fd00:100::1', dst='fd00:200::1')/ICMPv6EchoRequest()
&gt;&gt;&gt; send(p, count=1, inter=0.1)
&gt;&gt;&gt; quit()
$ ip -s link ls dev tun1 | grep -A1 "TX.*errors"
    TX: bytes  packets  errors  dropped carrier collsns
    0          0        1       0       0       0

The problem is that the network offset is set to the hard_header_len of the
output device (tun1, ie 14 + 20) and in our case, because the packet is
small (48 bytes) the pskb_inet_may_pull() fails (it tries to pull 40 bytes
(ipv6 header) starting from the network offset).

This problem is more generally related to device with variable hard header
length. To avoid a too intrusive patch in the current release, a (ugly)
workaround is proposed in this patch. It has to be cleaned up in net-next.

'dev' is non NULL when the addr_len check triggers so it must goto a label
that does the dev_put otherwise dev will have a leaked refcount.

This bug causes the ib_ipoib module to become unloadable when using
systemd-network as it triggers this check on InfiniBand links.

SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID is supported on TCP, UDP and RAW sockets.
But it was missing on RAW with IPPROTO_IP, PF_PACKET and CAN.

Add skb_setup_tx_timestamp that configures both tx_flags and tskey
for these paths that do not need corking or use bytestream keys.

<title>packet: copy user buffers before orphan or clone</title>

tpacket_snd sends packets with user pages linked into skb frags. It
notifies that pages can be reused when the skb is released by setting
skb-&gt;destructor to tpacket_destruct_skb.

This can cause data corruption if the skb is orphaned (e.g., on
transmit through veth) or cloned (e.g., on mirror to another psock).

Create a kernel-private copy of data in these cases, same as tun/tap
zerocopy transmission. Reuse that infrastructure: mark the skb as
SKBTX_ZEROCOPY_FRAG, which will trigger copy in skb_orphan_frags(_rx).

Unlike other zerocopy packets, do not set shinfo destructor_arg to
struct ubuf_info. tpacket_destruct_skb already uses that ptr to notify
when the original skb is released and a timestamp is recorded. Do not
change this timestamp behavior. The ubuf_info-&gt;callback is not needed
anyway, as no zerocopy notification is expected.

Mark destructor_arg as not-a-uarg by setting the lower bit to 1. The
resulting value is not a valid ubuf_info pointer, nor a valid
tpacket_snd frame address. Add skb_zcopy_.._nouarg helpers for this.

The fix relies on features introduced in commit 52267790ef52 ("sock:
add MSG_ZEROCOPY"), so can be backported as is only to 4.14.

Tested with from `./in_netns.sh ./txring_overwrite` from

<content type='text'>
Currently, the only way to ignore outgoing packets on a packet socket is
via the BPF filter.  With MSG_ZEROCOPY, packets that are looped into
AF_PACKET are copied in dev_queue_xmit_nit(), and this copy happens even
if the filter run from packet_rcv() would reject them.  So the presence
of a packet socket on the interface takes away the benefits of
MSG_ZEROCOPY, even if the packet socket is not interested in outgoing
packets.  (Even when MSG_ZEROCOPY is not used, the skb is unnecessarily
cloned, but the cost for that is much lower.)

Add a socket option to allow AF_PACKET sockets to ignore outgoing
packets to solve this.  Note that the *BSDs already have something
similar: BIOCSSEESENT/BIOCSDIRECTION and BIOCSDIRFILT.

The first intended user is lldpd.
