<content type='text'>
The previous patches handled the delivery_time before sch_handle_ingress().

This patch can now set the skb-&gt;mono_delivery_time to flag the skb-&gt;tstamp
is used as the mono delivery_time (EDT) instead of the (rcv) timestamp
and also clear it with skb_clear_delivery_time() after
sch_handle_ingress().  This will make the bpf_redirect_*()
to keep the mono delivery_time and used by a qdisc (fq) of
the egress-ing interface.

A latter patch will postpone the skb_clear_delivery_time() until the
stack learns that the skb is being delivered locally and that will
make other kernel forwarding paths (ip[6]_forward) able to keep
the delivery_time also.  Thus, like the previous patches on using
the skb-&gt;mono_delivery_time bit, calling skb_clear_delivery_time()
is not limited within the CONFIG_NET_INGRESS to avoid too many code
churns among this set.

<title>net: Add skb-&gt;mono_delivery_time to distinguish mono delivery_time from (rcv) timestamp</title>

<id>a1ac9c8acec1605c6b43af418f79facafdced680</id>
<content type='text'>
skb-&gt;tstamp was first used as the (rcv) timestamp.
The major usage is to report it to the user (e.g. SO_TIMESTAMP).

Later, skb-&gt;tstamp is also set as the (future) delivery_time (e.g. EDT in TCP)
during egress and used by the qdisc (e.g. sch_fq) to make decision on when
the skb can be passed to the dev.

Currently, there is no way to tell skb-&gt;tstamp having the (rcv) timestamp
or the delivery_time, so it is always reset to 0 whenever forwarded
between egress and ingress.

While it makes sense to always clear the (rcv) timestamp in skb-&gt;tstamp
to avoid confusing sch_fq that expects the delivery_time, it is a
performance issue [0] to clear the delivery_time if the skb finally
egress to a fq@phy-dev.  For example, when forwarding from egress to
ingress and then finally back to egress:

            tcp-sender =&gt; veth@netns =&gt; veth@hostns =&gt; fq@eth0@hostns
                                     ^              ^
                                     reset          rest

This patch adds one bit skb-&gt;mono_delivery_time to flag the skb-&gt;tstamp
is storing the mono delivery_time (EDT) instead of the (rcv) timestamp.

The current use case is to keep the TCP mono delivery_time (EDT) and
to be used with sch_fq.  A latter patch will also allow tc-bpf@ingress
to read and change the mono delivery_time.

In the future, another bit (e.g. skb-&gt;user_delivery_time) can be added
for the SCM_TXTIME where the clock base is tracked by sk-&gt;sk_clockid.

[ This patch is a prep work.  The following patches will
  get the other parts of the stack ready first.  Then another patch
  after that will finally set the skb-&gt;mono_delivery_time. ]

skb_set_delivery_time() function is added.  It is used by the tcp_output.c
and during ip[6] fragmentation to assign the delivery_time to
the skb-&gt;tstamp and also set the skb-&gt;mono_delivery_time.

A note on the change in ip_send_unicast_reply() in ip_output.c.
It is only used by TCP to send reset/ack out of a ctl_sk.
Like the new skb_set_delivery_time(), this patch sets
the skb-&gt;mono_delivery_time to 0 for now as a place
holder.  It will be enabled in a latter patch.
A similar case in tcp_ipv6 can be done with
skb_set_delivery_time() in tcp_v6_send_response().

Replace kfree_skb() which is used in the packet egress path of IP layer
with kfree_skb_reason(). Functions that are involved include:

__ip_queue_xmit()
ip_finish_output()
ip_mc_finish_output()
ip6_output()
ip6_finish_output()
ip6_finish_output2()

Following new drop reasons are introduced:

SKB_DROP_REASON_IP_OUTNOROUTES
SKB_DROP_REASON_BPF_CGROUP_EGRESS
SKB_DROP_REASON_IPV6DISABLED
SKB_DROP_REASON_NEIGH_CREATEFAIL

UDP sendmsg() can be lockless, this is causing all kinds

This patch converts sk-&gt;sk_tskey to remove one of these races.

Since v2.5.44 and addition of ip_options_fragment()
ip_options_build() does not render headers for fragments
directly. @is_frag is always 0.

<title>ipv4: tcp: send zero IPID in SYNACK messages</title>

In commit 431280eebed9 ("ipv4: tcp: send zero IPID for RST and
ACK sent in SYN-RECV and TIME-WAIT state") we took care of some
ctl packets sent by TCP.

It turns out we need to use a similar strategy for SYNACK packets.

By default, they carry IP_DF and IPID==0, but there are ways
to ask them to use the hashed IP ident generator and thus
be used to build off-path attacks.
(Ref: Off-Path TCP Exploits of the Mixed IPID Assignment)

One of this way is to force (before listener is started)
echo 1 &gt;/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_no_pmtu_disc

Another way is using forged ICMP ICMP_FRAG_NEEDED
with a very small MTU (like 68) to force a false return from
ip_dont_fragment()

In this patch, ip_build_and_send_pkt() uses the following
heuristics.

1) Most SYNACK packets are smaller than IPV4_MIN_MTU and therefore
can use IP_DF regardless of the listener or route pmtu setting.

2) In case the SYNACK packet is bigger than IPV4_MIN_MTU,
we use prandom_u32() generator instead of the IPv4 hashed ident one.

<title>ipv4: fix ip option filtering for locally generated fragments</title>

<content type='text'>
During IP fragmentation we sanitize IP options. This means overwriting
options which should not be copied with NOPs. Only the first fragment
has the original, full options.

ip_fraglist_prepare() copies the IP header and options from previous
fragment to the next one. Commit 19c3401a917b ("net: ipv4: place control
buffer handling away from fragmentation iterators") moved sanitizing
options before ip_fraglist_prepare() which means options are sanitized
and then overwritten again with the old values.

Fixing this is not enough, however, nor did the sanitization work
prior to aforementioned commit.

ip_options_fragment() (which does the sanitization) uses ipcb-&gt;opt.optlen
for the length of the options. ipcb-&gt;opt of fragments is not populated
(it's 0), only the head skb has the state properly built. So even when
called at the right time ip_options_fragment() does nothing. This seems
to date back all the way to v2.5.44 when the fast path for pre-fragmented
skbs had been introduced. Prior to that ip_options_build() would have been
called for every fragment (in fact ever since v2.5.44 the fragmentation
handing in ip_options_build() has been dead code, I'll clean it up in
-next).

In the original patch (see Link) caixf mentions fixing the handling
for fragments other than the second one, but I'm not sure how _any_
fragment could have had their options sanitized with the code
as it stood.

Tested with python (MTU on lo lowered to 1000 to force fragmentation):

  import socket
  s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
  s.setsockopt(socket.IPPROTO_IP, socket.IP_OPTIONS,
               bytearray([7,4,5,192, 20|0x80,4,1,0]))
  s.sendto(b'1'*2000, ('127.0.0.1', 1234))

Before:

IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 1053, offset 0, flags [+], proto UDP (17), length 996, options (RR [bad length 4] [bad ptr 5] 192.148.4.1,,RA value 256))
    localhost.36500 &gt; localhost.search-agent: UDP, length 2000
IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 1053, offset 968, flags [+], proto UDP (17), length 996, options (RR [bad length 4] [bad ptr 5] 192.148.4.1,,RA value 256))
    localhost &gt; localhost: udp
IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 1053, offset 1936, flags [none], proto UDP (17), length 100, options (RR [bad length 4] [bad ptr 5] 192.148.4.1,,RA value 256))
    localhost &gt; localhost: udp

After:

IP (tos 0x0, ttl 96, id 42549, offset 0, flags [+], proto UDP (17), length 996, options (RR [bad length 4] [bad ptr 5] 192.148.4.1,,RA value 256))
    localhost.51607 &gt; localhost.search-agent: UDP, bad length 2000 &gt; 960
IP (tos 0x0, ttl 96, id 42549, offset 968, flags [+], proto UDP (17), length 996, options (NOP,NOP,NOP,NOP,RA value 256))
    localhost &gt; localhost: udp
IP (tos 0x0, ttl 96, id 42549, offset 1936, flags [none], proto UDP (17), length 100, options (NOP,NOP,NOP,NOP,RA value 256))
    localhost &gt; localhost: udp

RA (20 | 0x80) is now copied as expected, RR (7) is "NOPed out".
