[ Upstream commit 980d69276f3048af43a045be2925dacfb898a7be ]

When an application connects to the TIPC topology server and subscribes
to some services, a new connection is created along with some objects -
'tipc_subscription' to store related data correspondingly...
However, there is one omission in the connection handling that when the
connection or application is orderly shutdown (e.g. via SIGQUIT, etc.),
the connection is not closed in kernel, the 'tipc_subscription' objects
are not freed too.
This results in:
- The maximum number of subscriptions (65535) will be reached soon, new
subscriptions will be rejected;
- TIPC module cannot be removed (unless the objects  are somehow forced
to release first);

The commit fixes the issue by closing the connection if the 'recvmsg()'
returns '0' i.e. when the peer is shutdown gracefully. It also includes
the other unexpected cases.

In function __tipc_shutdown(), the timeout value passed to

commit 91a4a3eb433e4d786420c41f3c08d1d16c605962 upstream.

When tipc_sk_timeout() is executed but user space is grabbing
ownership, this function rearms itself and returns. However, the
socket reference counter is not reduced. This causes potential
unexpected behavior.

This commit fixes it by calling sock_put() before tipc_sk_timeout()
returns in the above-mentioned case.

commit 2fe97a578d7bad3116a89dc8a6692a51e6fc1d9c upstream.

When initiating a connection message to a server side, the connection
message is cloned and added to the socket write queue. However, if the
cloning is failed, only the socket write queue is purged. It causes
memory leak because the original connection message is not freed.

This commit fixes it by purging the list of connection message when
it cannot be cloned.

commit 46cb01eeeb86fca6afe24dda1167b0cb95424e29 upstream.

In commit 25b0b9c4e835 ("tipc: handle collisions of 32-bit node address
hash values"), the 32-bit node address only generated after one second
trial period expired. However the self's addr in struct tipc_monitor do
not update according to node address generated. This lead to it is
always zero as initial value. As result, sorting algorithm using this
value does not work as expected, neither neighbor monitoring framework.

In this commit, we add a fix to update self's addr when 32-bit node
address generated.

commit abc9b4e0549b93fdaff56e9532bc49a2d7b04955 upstream.

When a user message is sent, TIPC will check if the socket has faced a
congestion at link layer. If that happens, it will make a sleep to wait
for the congestion to disappear. This leaves a gap for other users to
take over the socket (e.g. multi threads) since the socket is released
as well. Also, in case of connectionless (e.g. SOCK_RDM), user is free
to send messages to various destinations (e.g. via 'sendto()'), then
the socket's preformatted header has to be updated correspondingly
prior to the actual payload message building.

Unfortunately, the latter action is done before the first action which
causes a condition issue that the destination of a certain message can
be modified incorrectly in the middle, leading to wrong destination
when that message is built. Consequently, when the message is sent to
the link layer, it gets stuck there forever because the peer node will
simply reject it. After a number of retransmission attempts, the link
is eventually taken down and the retransmission failure is reported.

This commit fixes the problem by rearranging the order of actions to
prevent the race condition from occurring, so the message building is
'atomic' and its header will not be modified by anyone.

<content type='text'>
commit dca4a17d24ee9d878836ce5eb8dc25be1ffa5729 upstream.

In commit c55c8edafa91 ("tipc: smooth change between replicast and
broadcast"), we allow instant switching between replicast and broadcast
by sending a dummy 'SYN' packet on the last used link to synchronize
packets on the links. The 'SYN' message is an object of link congestion
also, so if that happens, a 'SOCK_WAKEUP' will be scheduled to be sent
back to the socket...
However, in that commit, we simply use the same socket 'cong_link_cnt'
counter for both the 'SYN' &amp; normal payload message sending. Therefore,
if both the replicast &amp; broadcast links are congested, the counter will
be not updated correctly but overwritten by the latter congestion.
Later on, when the 'SOCK_WAKEUP' messages are processed, the counter is
reduced one by one and eventually overflowed. Consequently, further
activities on the socket will only wait for the false congestion signal
to disappear but never been met.

Because sending the 'SYN' message is vital for the mechanism, it should
be done anyway. This commit fixes the issue by marking the message with
an error code e.g. 'TIPC_ERR_NO_PORT', so its sending should not face a
link congestion, there is no need to touch the socket 'cong_link_cnt'
either. In addition, in the event of any error (e.g. -ENOBUFS), we will
purge the entire payload message queue and make a return immediately.

commit dca4a17d24ee9d878836ce5eb8dc25be1ffa5729 upstream.

In commit c55c8edafa91 ("tipc: smooth change between replicast and
broadcast"), we allow instant switching between replicast and broadcast
by sending a dummy 'SYN' packet on the last used link to synchronize
packets on the links. The 'SYN' message is an object of link congestion
also, so if that happens, a 'SOCK_WAKEUP' will be scheduled to be sent
back to the socket...
However, in that commit, we simply use the same socket 'cong_link_cnt'
counter for both the 'SYN' &amp; normal payload message sending. Therefore,
if both the replicast &amp; broadcast links are congested, the counter will
be not updated correctly but overwritten by the latter congestion.
Later on, when the 'SOCK_WAKEUP' messages are processed, the counter is
reduced one by one and eventually overflowed. Consequently, further
activities on the socket will only wait for the false congestion signal
to disappear but never been met.

Because sending the 'SYN' message is vital for the mechanism, it should
be done anyway. This commit fixes the issue by marking the message with
an error code e.g. 'TIPC_ERR_NO_PORT', so its sending should not face a
link congestion, there is no need to touch the socket 'cong_link_cnt'
either. In addition, in the event of any error (e.g. -ENOBUFS), we will
purge the entire payload message queue and make a return immediately.

[ Upstream commit 6c8991f41546c3c472503dff1ea9daaddf9331c2 ]

ipv6_stub uses the ip6_dst_lookup function to allow other modules to
perform IPv6 lookups. However, this function skips the XFRM layer
entirely.

All users of ipv6_stub-&gt;ip6_dst_lookup use ip_route_output_flow (via the
ip_route_output_key and ip_route_output helpers) for their IPv4 lookups,
which calls xfrm_lookup_route(). This patch fixes this inconsistent
behavior by switching the stub to ip6_dst_lookup_flow, which also calls
xfrm_lookup_route().

This requires some changes in all the callers, as these two functions
take different arguments and have different return types.
