[ Upstream commit 2efd4fca703a6707cad16ab486eaab8fc7f0fd49 ]

Syzbot reported a read beyond the end of the skb head when returning
IPV6_ORIGDSTADDR:

  BUG: KMSAN: kernel-infoleak in put_cmsg+0x5ef/0x860 net/core/scm.c:242

This logic and its ipv4 counterpart read the destination port from
the packet at skb_transport_offset(skb) + 4.

With MSG_MORE and a local SOCK_RAW sender, syzbot was able to cook a
packet that stores headers exactly up to skb_transport_offset(skb) in
the head and the remainder in a frag.

Call pskb_may_pull before accessing the pointer to ensure that it lies
in skb head.

[ Upstream commit 3d4bf93ac12003f9b8e1e2de37fe27983deebdcf ]

In case an attacker feeds tiny packets completely out of order,
tcp_collapse_ofo_queue() might scan the whole rb-tree, performing
expensive copies, but not changing socket memory usage at all.

1) Do not attempt to collapse tiny skbs.
2) Add logic to exit early when too many tiny skbs are detected.

We prefer not doing aggressive collapsing (which copies packets)
for pathological flows, and revert to tcp_prune_ofo_queue() which
will be less expensive.

In the future, we might add the possibility of terminating flows
that are proven to be malicious.

[ Upstream commit f4a3313d8e2ca9fd8d8f45e40a2903ba782607e7 ]

Right after a TCP flow is created, receiving tiny out of order
packets allways hit the condition :

if (atomic_read(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_rmem_alloc) &gt;= sk-&gt;sk_rcvbuf)
	tcp_clamp_window(sk);

tcp_clamp_window() increases sk_rcvbuf to match sk_rmem_alloc
(guarded by tcp_rmem[2])

Calling tcp_collapse_ofo_queue() in this case is not useful,
and offers a O(N^2) surface attack to malicious peers.

Better not attempt anything before full queue capacity is reached,
forcing attacker to spend lots of resource and allow us to more
easily detect the abuse.

<title>tcp: do not delay ACK in DCTCP upon CE status change</title>

[ Upstream commit a0496ef2c23b3b180902dd185d0d63ccbc624cf8 ]

Per DCTCP RFC8257 (Section 3.2) the ACK reflecting the CE status change
has to be sent immediately so the sender can respond quickly:

""" When receiving packets, the CE codepoint MUST be processed as follows:

   1.  If the CE codepoint is set and DCTCP.CE is false, set DCTCP.CE to
       true and send an immediate ACK.

   2.  If the CE codepoint is not set and DCTCP.CE is true, set DCTCP.CE
       to false and send an immediate ACK.
"""

Previously DCTCP implementation may continue to delay the ACK. This
patch fixes that to implement the RFC by forcing an immediate ACK.

<title>tcp: do not cancel delay-AcK on DCTCP special ACK</title>

[ Upstream commit 27cde44a259c380a3c09066fc4b42de7dde9b1ad ]

Currently when a DCTCP receiver delays an ACK and receive a
data packet with a different CE mark from the previous one's, it
sends two immediate ACKs acking previous and latest sequences
respectly (for ECN accounting).

Previously sending the first ACK may mark off the delayed ACK timer
(tcp_event_ack_sent). This may subsequently prevent sending the
second ACK to acknowledge the latest sequence (tcp_ack_snd_check).
The culprit is that tcp_send_ack() assumes it always acknowleges
the latest sequence, which is not true for the first special ACK.

The fix is to not make the assumption in tcp_send_ack and check the
actual ack sequence before cancelling the delayed ACK. Further it's
safer to pass the ack sequence number as a local variable into
tcp_send_ack routine, instead of intercepting tp-&gt;rcv_nxt to avoid
future bugs like this.

[ Upstream commit b0c05d0e99d98d7f0cd41efc1eeec94efdc3325d ]

Previously, when a data segment was sent an ACK was piggybacked
on the data segment without generating a CA_EVENT_NON_DELAYED_ACK
event to notify congestion control modules. So the DCTCP
ca-&gt;delayed_ack_reserved flag could incorrectly stay set when
in fact there were no delayed ACKs being reserved. This could result
in sending a special ECN notification ACK that carries an older
ACK sequence, when in fact there was no need for such an ACK.
DCTCP keeps track of the delayed ACK status with its own separate
state ca-&gt;delayed_ack_reserved. Previously it may accidentally cancel
the delayed ACK without updating this field upon sending a special
ACK that carries a older ACK sequence. This inconsistency would
lead to DCTCP receiver never acknowledging the latest data until the
sender times out and retry in some cases.

[ Upstream commit 5025f7f7d506fba9b39e7fe8ca10f6f34cb9bc2d ]

rtnl_configure_link sets dev-&gt;rtnl_link_state to
RTNL_LINK_INITIALIZED and unconditionally calls
__dev_notify_flags to notify user-space of dev flags.

current call sequence for rtnl_configure_link
rtnetlink_newlink
    rtnl_link_ops-&gt;newlink
    rtnl_configure_link (unconditionally notifies userspace of
                         default and new dev flags)

If a newlink handler wants to call rtnl_configure_link
early, we will end up with duplicate notifications to
user-space.

This patch fixes rtnl_configure_link to check rtnl_link_state
and call __dev_notify_flags with gchanges = 0 if already
RTNL_LINK_INITIALIZED.

Later in the series, this patch will help the following sequence
where a driver implementing newlink can call rtnl_configure_link
to initialize the link early.

makes the following call sequence work:
rtnetlink_newlink
    rtnl_link_ops-&gt;newlink (vxlan) -&gt; rtnl_configure_link (initializes
                                                link and notifies
                                                user-space of default
                                                dev flags)

<title>ip: hash fragments consistently</title>

[ Upstream commit 3dd1c9a1270736029ffca670e9bd0265f4120600 ]

The skb hash for locally generated ip[v6] fragments belonging
to the same datagram can vary in several circumstances:
* for connected UDP[v6] sockets, the first fragment get its hash
  via set_owner_w()/skb_set_hash_from_sk()
* for unconnected IPv6 UDPv6 sockets, the first fragment can get
  its hash via ip6_make_flowlabel()/skb_get_hash_flowi6(), if
  auto_flowlabel is enabled

For the following frags the hash is usually computed via
skb_get_hash().
The above can cause OoO for unconnected IPv6 UDPv6 socket: in that
scenario the egress tx queue can be selected on a per packet basis
via the skb hash.
It may also fool flow-oriented schedulers to place fragments belonging
to the same datagram in different flows.

Fix the issue by copying the skb hash from the head frag into
the others at fragmentation time.

[ Upstream commit e78bfb0751d4e312699106ba7efbed2bab1a53ca ]

Commit 8b7008620b84 ("net: Don't copy pfmemalloc flag in
__copy_skb_header()") introduced a different handling for the
pfmemalloc flag in copy and clone paths.

In __skb_clone(), now, the flag is set only if it was set in the
original skb, but not cleared if it wasn't. This is wrong and
might lead to socket buffers being flagged with pfmemalloc even
if the skb data wasn't allocated from pfmemalloc reserves. Copy
the flag instead of ORing it.
