PACKET_RX_RING can cause multiple writers to access the same slot if a
fast writer wraps the ring while a slow writer is still copying. This
is particularly likely with few, large, slots (e.g., GSO packets).

Synchronize kernel thread ownership of rx ring slots with a bitmap.

Writers acquire a slot race-free by testing tp_status TP_STATUS_KERNEL
while holding the sk receive queue lock. They release this lock before
copying and set tp_status to TP_STATUS_USER to release to userspace
when done. During copying, another writer may take the lock, also see
TP_STATUS_KERNEL, and start writing to the same slot.

Introduce a new rx_owner_map bitmap with a bit per slot. To acquire a
slot, test and set with the lock held. To release race-free, update
tp_status and owner bit as a transaction, so take the lock again.

This is the one of a variety of discussed options (see Link below):

* instead of a shadow ring, embed the data in the slot itself, such as
in tp_padding. But any test for this field may match a value left by
userspace, causing deadlock.

* avoid the lock on release. This leaves a small race if releasing the
shadow slot before setting TP_STATUS_USER. The below reproducer showed
that this race is not academic. If releasing the slot after tp_status,
the race is more subtle. See the first link for details.

* add a new tp_status TP_KERNEL_OWNED to avoid the transactional store
of two fields. But, legacy applications may interpret all non-zero
tp_status as owned by the user. As libpcap does. So this is possible
only opt-in by newer processes. It can be added as an optional mode.

* embed the struct at the tail of pg_vec to avoid extra allocation.
The implementation proved no less complex than a separate field.

The additional locking cost on release adds contention, no different
than scaling on multicore or multiqueue h/w. In practice, below
reproducer nor small packet tcpdump showed a noticeable change in
perf report in cycles spent in spinlock. Where contention is
problematic, packet sockets support mitigation through PACKET_FANOUT.
And we can consider adding opt-in state TP_KERNEL_OWNED.

Easy to reproduce by running multiple netperf or similar TCP_STREAM
flows concurrently with `tcpdump -B 129 -n greater 60000`.

Based on an earlier patchset by Jon Rosen. See links below.

I believe this issue goes back to the introduction of tpacket_rcv,
which predates git history.

In one error case, tpacket_rcv drops packets after incrementing the
ring producer index.

If this happens, it does not update tp_status to TP_STATUS_USER and
thus the reader is stalled for an iteration of the ring, causing out
of order arrival.

The only such error path is when virtio_net_hdr_from_skb fails due
to encountering an unknown GSO type.

Pull y2038 updates from Arnd Bergmann:
 "Core, driver and file system changes

  These are updates to device drivers and file systems that for some
  reason or another were not included in the kernel in the previous
  y2038 series.

  I've gone through all users of time_t again to make sure the kernel is
  in a long-term maintainable state, replacing all remaining references
  to time_t with safe alternatives.

  Some related parts of the series were picked up into the nfsd, xfs,
  alsa and v4l2 trees. A final set of patches in linux-mm removes the
  now unused time_t/timeval/timespec types and helper functions after
  all five branches are merged for linux-5.6, ensuring that no new users
  get merged.

  As a result, linux-5.6, or my backport of the patches to 5.4 [1],
  should be the first release that can serve as a base for a 32-bit
  system designed to run beyond year 2038, with a few remaining caveats:

   - All user space must be compiled with a 64-bit time_t, which will be
     supported in the coming musl-1.2 and glibc-2.32 releases, along
     with installed kernel headers from linux-5.6 or higher.

   - Applications that use the system call interfaces directly need to
     be ported to use the time64 syscalls added in linux-5.1 in place of
     the existing system calls. This impacts most users of futex() and
     seccomp() as well as programming languages that have their own
     runtime environment not based on libc.

   - Applications that use a private copy of kernel uapi header files or
     their contents may need to update to the linux-5.6 version, in
     particular for sound/asound.h, xfs/xfs_fs.h, linux/input.h,
     linux/elfcore.h, linux/sockios.h, linux/timex.h and
     linux/can/bcm.h.

   - A few remaining interfaces cannot be changed to pass a 64-bit
     time_t in a compatible way, so they must be configured to use
     CLOCK_MONOTONIC times or (with a y2106 problem) unsigned 32-bit
     timestamps. Most importantly this impacts all users of 'struct
     input_event'.

   - All y2038 problems that are present on 64-bit machines also apply
     to 32-bit machines. In particular this affects file systems with
     on-disk timestamps using signed 32-bit seconds: ext4 with
     ext3-style small inodes, ext2, xfs (to be fixed soon) and ufs"

If __ethtool_get_link_ksettings() is failed and with
non-zero value, prb_calc_retire_blk_tmo() should return
DEFAULT_PRB_RETIRE_TOV firstly.

The memory mapped packet socket data structure in version 1 through 3
all contain 32-bit second values for the packet time stamps, which makes
them suffer from the overflow of time_t in y2038 or y2106 (depending
on whether user space interprets the value as signed or unsigned).

The implementation uses the deprecated getnstimeofday() function.

In order to get rid of that, this changes the code to use
ktime_get_real_ts64() as a replacement, documenting the nature of the
overflow. As long as the user applications treat the timestamps as
unsigned, or only use the difference between timestamps, they are
fine, and changing the timestamps to 64-bit wouldn't require a more
invasive user space API change.

Note: a lot of other APIs suffer from incompatible structures when
time_t gets redefined to 64-bit in 32-bit user space, but this one
does not.

KCSAN reported the following data-race [1]

Adding a couple of READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() should silence it.

Since the report hinted about multiple cpus using the history
concurrently, I added a test avoiding writing on it if the
victim slot already contains the desired value.

<title>netfilter: drop bridge nf reset from nf_reset</title>

commit 174e23810cd31
("sk_buff: drop all skb extensions on free and skb scrubbing") made napi
recycle always drop skb extensions.  The additional skb_ext_del() that is
performed via nf_reset on napi skb recycle is not needed anymore.

Most nf_reset() calls in the stack are there so queued skb won't block
'rmmod nf_conntrack' indefinitely.

This removes the skb_ext_del from nf_reset, and renames it to a more
fitting nf_reset_ct().

In a few selected places, add a call to skb_ext_reset to make sure that
no active extensions remain.

I am submitting this for "net", because we're still early in the release
cycle.  The patch applies to net-next too, but I think the rename causes
needless divergence between those trees.

<title>net/packet: fix race in tpacket_snd()</title>

packet_sendmsg() checks tx_ring.pg_vec to decide
if it must call tpacket_snd().

Problem is that the check is lockless, meaning another thread
can issue a concurrent setsockopt(PACKET_TX_RING ) to flip
tx_ring.pg_vec back to NULL.

Given that tpacket_snd() grabs pg_vec_lock mutex, we can
perform the check again to solve the race.

The new route handling in ip_mc_finish_output() from 'net' overlapped
with the new support for returning congestion notifications from BPF
programs.

In order to handle this I had to take the dev_loopback_xmit() calls
out of the switch statement.

The aquantia driver conflicts were simple overlapping changes.
