commit 2f941622fd88328ca75806c45c9e9709286a0609 upstream.

WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 16059 at lib/refcount.c:31 refcount_warn_saturate+0xdf/0xf
[..]
 __nft_mt_tg_destroy+0x42/0x50 [nft_compat]

 nf_tables_rule_destroy+0x3a/0x70 [nf_tables]
 nf_tables_exit_net+0x186/0x3d0 [nf_tables]

Happens when a compat expr is destoyed from abort path.
There is no functional impact; after this work queue is flushed
unconditionally if its pending.

This removes the waitcount optimization.  Test of repeated
iptables-restore of a ~60k kubernetes ruleset doesn't indicate
a slowdown.  In case the counter is needed after all for some workloads
we can revert this and increment the refcount for the
!= NFT_PREPARE_TRANS case to avoid the increment/decrement imbalance.

While at it, also flush for match case, this was an oversight
in the original patch.

commit 869f4fdaf4ca7bb6e0d05caf6fa1108dddc346a7 upstream.

When register_pernet_subsys() fails, nf_nat_bysource
should be freed just like when nf_ct_extend_register()
fails.

commit f6351c3f1c27c80535d76cac2299aec44c36291e upstream.

The old way of changing the conntrack hashsize runtime was through changing
the module param via file /sys/module/nf_conntrack/parameters/hashsize. This
was extended to sysctl change in commit 3183ab8997a4 ("netfilter: conntrack:
allow increasing bucket size via sysctl too").

The commit introduced second "user" variable nf_conntrack_htable_size_user
which shadow actual variable nf_conntrack_htable_size. When hashsize is
changed via module param this "user" variable isn't updated. This results in
sysctl net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_buckets shows the wrong value when users
update via the old way.

This patch fix the issue by always updating "user" variable when reading the
proc file. This will take care of changes to the actual variable without
sysctl need to be aware.

commit 86b53fbf08f48d353a86a06aef537e78e82ba721 upstream.

A return value of 0 means success. This is documented in lib/kstrtox.c.

This was found by trying to mount an NFS share from a link-local IPv6
address with the interface specified by its index:

  mount("[fe80::1%1]:/srv/nfs", "/mnt", "nfs", 0, "nolock,addr=fe80::1%1")

Before this commit this failed with EINVAL and also caused the following
message in dmesg:

  [...] NFS: bad IP address specified: addr=fe80::1%1

The syscall using the same address based on the interface name instead
of its index succeeds.

Credits for this patch go to my colleague Christian Speich, who traced
the origin of this bug to this line of code.

[ Upstream commit 2b33d6ffa9e38f344418976b06057e2fc2aa9e2a ]

currently mtype_resize() can cause oops

        t = ip_set_alloc(htable_size(htable_bits));
        if (!t) {
                ret = -ENOMEM;
                goto out;
        }
        t-&gt;hregion = ip_set_alloc(ahash_sizeof_regions(htable_bits));

Increased htable_bits can force htable_size() to return 0.
In own turn ip_set_alloc(0) returns not 0 but ZERO_SIZE_PTR,
so follwoing access to t-&gt;hregion should trigger an OOPS.

<title>net: drop bogus skb with CHECKSUM_PARTIAL and offset beyond end of trimmed packet</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 54970a2fbb673f090b7f02d7f57b10b2e0707155 upstream.

syzbot reproduces BUG_ON in skb_checksum_help():
tun creates (bogus) skb with huge partial-checksummed area and
small ip packet inside. Then ip_rcv trims the skb based on size
of internal ip packet, after that csum offset points beyond of
trimmed skb. Then checksum_tg() called via netfilter hook
triggers BUG_ON:

        offset = skb_checksum_start_offset(skb);
        BUG_ON(offset &gt;= skb_headlen(skb));

To work around the problem this patch forces pskb_trim_rcsum_slow()
to return -EINVAL in described scenario. It allows its callers to
drop such kind of packets.

[ Upstream commit bb4cc1a18856a73f0ff5137df0c2a31f4c50f6cf ]

Conntrack reassembly records the largest fragment size seen in IPCB.
However, when this gets forwarded/transmitted, fragmentation will only
be forced if one of the fragmented packets had the DF bit set.

In that case, a flag in IPCB will force fragmentation even if the
MTU is large enough.

This should work fine, but this breaks with ip tunnels.
Consider client that sends a UDP datagram of size X to another host.

The client fragments the datagram, so two packets, of size y and z, are
sent. DF bit is not set on any of these packets.

Middlebox netfilter reassembles those packets back to single size-X
packet, before routing decision.

packet-size-vs-mtu checks in ip_forward are irrelevant, because DF bit
isn't set.  At output time, ip refragmentation is skipped as well
because x is still smaller than the mtu of the output device.

If ttransmit device is an ip tunnel, the packet size increases to
x+overhead.

Also, tunnel might be configured to force DF bit on outer header.

In this case, packet will be dropped (exceeds MTU) and an ICMP error is
generated back to sender.

But sender already respects the announced MTU, all the packets that
it sent did fit the announced mtu.

Force refragmentation as per original sizes unconditionally so ip tunnel
will encapsulate the fragments instead.

The only other solution I see is to place ip refragmentation in
the ip_tunnel code to handle this case.

[ Upstream commit 50c661670f6a3908c273503dfa206dfc7aa54c07 ]

For some reason ip_tunnel insist on setting the DF bit anyway when the
inner header has the DF bit set, EVEN if the tunnel was configured with
'nopmtudisc'.

This means that the script added in the previous commit
cannot be made to work by adding the 'nopmtudisc' flag to the
ip tunnel configuration. Doing so breaks connectivity even for the
without-conntrack/netfilter scenario.

When nopmtudisc is set, the tunnel will skip the mtu check, so no
icmp error is sent to client. Then, because inner header has DF set,
the outer header gets added with DF bit set as well.

IP stack then sends an error to itself because the packet exceeds
the device MTU.
