====================
Netfilter fixes for net

The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for net:

1) Fix gcc-10 compilation warning in nf_conntrack, from Arnd Bergmann.

2) Add NF_FLOW_HW_PENDING to avoid races between stats and deletion
   commands, from Paul Blakey.

3) Remove WQ_MEM_RECLAIM from the offload workqueue, from Roi Dayan.

4) Infinite loop when removing nf_conntrack module, from Florian Westphal.

5) Set NF_FLOW_TEARDOWN bit on expiration to avoid races when refreshing
   the timeout from the software path.

6) Missing nft_set_elem_expired() check in the rbtree, from Phil Sutter.

<title>tcp: fix SO_RCVLOWAT hangs with fat skbs</title>

<content type='text'>
We autotune rcvbuf whenever SO_RCVLOWAT is set to account for 100%
overhead in tcp_set_rcvlowat()

This works well when skb-&gt;len/skb-&gt;truesize ratio is bigger than 0.5

But if we receive packets with small MSS, we can end up in a situation
where not enough bytes are available in the receive queue to satisfy
RCVLOWAT setting.
As our sk_rcvbuf limit is hit, we send zero windows in ACK packets,
preventing remote peer from sending more data.

Even autotuning does not help, because it only triggers at the time
user process drains the queue. If no EPOLLIN is generated, this
can not happen.

Note poll() has a similar issue, after commit
c7004482e8dc ("tcp: Respect SO_RCVLOWAT in tcp_poll().")

Gc step can queue offloaded flow del work or stats work.
Those work items can race each other and a flow could be freed
before the stats work is executed and querying it.
To avoid that, add a pending bit that if a work exists for a flow
don't queue another work for it.
This will also avoid adding multiple stats works in case stats work
didn't complete but gc step started again.

gcc-10 warns around a suspicious access to an empty struct member:

net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c: In function '__nf_conntrack_alloc':
net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:1522:9: warning: array subscript 0 is outside the bounds of an interior zero-length array 'u8[0]' {aka 'unsigned char[0]'} [-Wzero-length-bounds]
 1522 |  memset(&amp;ct-&gt;__nfct_init_offset[0], 0,

   90 |  u8 __nfct_init_offset[0];
      |     ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The code is correct but a bit unusual. Rework it slightly in a way that
does not trigger the warning, using an empty struct instead of an empty
array. There are probably more elegant ways to do this, but this is the
smallest change.

clang points out that building without IPv6 would lead to returning
an uninitialized variable if a packet with family!=AF_INET is
passed into bareudp_udp_encap_recv():

drivers/net/bareudp.c:139:6: error: variable 'err' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is false [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
        if (family == AF_INET)

drivers/net/bareudp.c:139:2: note: remove the 'if' if its condition is always true
        if (family == AF_INET)
        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This cannot happen in practice, so change the condition in a way that
gcc sees the IPv4 case as unconditionally true here.
For consistency, change all the similar constructs in this file the
same way, using "if(IS_ENABLED())" instead of #if IS_ENABLED()".

<content type='text'>
This patch adds FLOW_ACTION_HW_STATS_DONT_CARE which tells the driver
that the frontend does not need counters, this hw stats type request
never fails. The FLOW_ACTION_HW_STATS_DISABLED type explicitly requests
the driver to disable the stats, however, if the driver cannot disable
counters, it bails out.

TCA_ACT_HW_STATS_* maintains the 1:1 mapping with FLOW_ACTION_HW_STATS_*
except by disabled which is mapped to FLOW_ACTION_HW_STATS_DISABLED
(this is 0 in tc). Add tc_act_hw_stats() to perform the mapping between
TCA_ACT_HW_STATS_* and FLOW_ACTION_HW_STATS_*.

<id>a7df4870d79b00742da6cc93ca2f336a71db77f7</id>
<content type='text'>
When we tell kernel to dump filters from root (ffff:ffff),
those filters on ingress (ffff:0000) are matched, but their
true parents must be dumped as they are. However, kernel
dumps just whatever we tell it, that is either ffff:ffff
or ffff:0000:

 $ nl-cls-list --dev=dummy0 --parent=root
 cls basic dev dummy0 id none parent root prio 49152 protocol ip match-all
 cls basic dev dummy0 id :1 parent root prio 49152 protocol ip match-all
 $ nl-cls-list --dev=dummy0 --parent=ffff:
 cls basic dev dummy0 id none parent ffff: prio 49152 protocol ip match-all
 cls basic dev dummy0 id :1 parent ffff: prio 49152 protocol ip match-all

This is confusing and misleading, more importantly this is
a regression since 4.15, so the old behavior must be restored.

And, when tc filters are installed on a tc class, the parent
should be the classid, rather than the qdisc handle. Commit
edf6711c9840 ("net: sched: remove classid and q fields from tcf_proto")
removed the classid we save for filters, we can just restore
this classid in tcf_block.

Steps to reproduce this:
 ip li set dev dummy0 up
 tc qd add dev dummy0 ingress
 tc filter add dev dummy0 parent ffff: protocol arp basic action pass
 tc filter show dev dummy0 root

Before this patch:
 filter protocol arp pref 49152 basic
 filter protocol arp pref 49152 basic handle 0x1
	action order 1: gact action pass
	 random type none pass val 0
	 index 1 ref 1 bind 1

After this patch:
 filter parent ffff: protocol arp pref 49152 basic
 filter parent ffff: protocol arp pref 49152 basic handle 0x1
 	action order 1: gact action pass
 	 random type none pass val 0
	 index 1 ref 1 bind 1

Nik reported a bug with pcpu dst cache when nexthop objects are
used illustrated by the following:
    $ ip netns add foo
    $ ip -netns foo li set lo up
    $ ip -netns foo addr add 2001:db8:11::1/128 dev lo
    $ ip netns exec foo sysctl net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding=1
    $ ip li add veth1 type veth peer name veth2
    $ ip li set veth1 up
    $ ip addr add 2001:db8:10::1/64 dev veth1
    $ ip li set dev veth2 netns foo
    $ ip -netns foo li set veth2 up
    $ ip -netns foo addr add 2001:db8:10::2/64 dev veth2
    $ ip -6 nexthop add id 100 via 2001:db8:10::2 dev veth1
    $ ip -6 route add 2001:db8:11::1/128 nhid 100

    Create a pcpu entry on cpu 0:
    $ taskset -a -c 0 ip -6 route get 2001:db8:11::1

    Re-add the route entry:
    $ ip -6 ro del 2001:db8:11::1
    $ ip -6 route add 2001:db8:11::1/128 nhid 100

    Route get on cpu 0 returns the stale pcpu:
    $ taskset -a -c 0 ip -6 route get 2001:db8:11::1
    RTNETLINK answers: Network is unreachable

    While cpu 1 works:
    $ taskset -a -c 1 ip -6 route get 2001:db8:11::1
    2001:db8:11::1 from :: via 2001:db8:10::2 dev veth1 src 2001:db8:10::1 metric 1024 pref medium

Conversion of FIB entries to work with external nexthop objects
missed an important difference between IPv4 and IPv6 - how dst
entries are invalidated when the FIB changes. IPv4 has a per-network
namespace generation id (rt_genid) that is bumped on changes to the FIB.
Checking if a dst_entry is still valid means comparing rt_genid in the
rtable to the current value of rt_genid for the namespace.

IPv6 also has a per network namespace counter, fib6_sernum, but the
count is saved per fib6_node. With the per-node counter only dst_entries
based on fib entries under the node are invalidated when changes are
made to the routes - limiting the scope of invalidations. IPv6 uses a
reference in the rt6_info, 'from', to track the corresponding fib entry
used to create the dst_entry. When validating a dst_entry, the 'from'
is used to backtrack to the fib6_node and check the sernum of it to the
cookie passed to the dst_check operation.

With the inline format (nexthop definition inline with the fib6_info),
dst_entries cached in the fib6_nh have a 1:1 correlation between fib
entries, nexthop data and dst_entries. With external nexthops, IPv6
looks more like IPv4 which means multiple fib entries across disparate
fib6_nodes can all reference the same fib6_nh. That means validation
of dst_entries based on external nexthops needs to use the IPv4 format
- the per-network namespace counter.

Add sernum to rt6_info and set it when creating a pcpu dst entry. Update
rt6_get_cookie to return sernum if it is set and update dst_check for
IPv6 to look for sernum set and based the check on it if so. Finally,
rt6_get_pcpu_route needs to validate the cached entry before returning
a pcpu entry (similar to the rt_cache_valid calls in __mkroute_input and
__mkroute_output for IPv4).

This problem only affects routes using the new, external nexthops.

Thanks to the kbuild test robot for catching the IS_ENABLED needed
around rt_genid_ipv6 before I sent this out.

<title>tunnel: Propagate ECT(1) when decapsulating as recommended by RFC6040</title>

RFC 6040 recommends propagating an ECT(1) mark from an outer tunnel header
to the inner header if that inner header is already marked as ECT(0). When
RFC 6040 decapsulation was implemented, this case of propagation was not
added. This simply appears to be an oversight, so let's fix that.
