<content type='text'>
When reading from the error queue, msg_name and msg_control are only
populated for some errors. A new exception for empty timestamp skbs
added a false positive on icmp errors without payload.

`traceroute -M udpconn` only displayed gateways that return payload
with the icmp error: the embedded network headers are pulled before
sock_queue_err_skb, leaving an skb with skb-&gt;len == 0 otherwise.

Fix this regression by refining when msg_name and msg_control
branches are taken. The solutions for the two fields are independent.

msg_name only makes sense for errors that configure serr-&gt;port and
serr-&gt;addr_offset. Test the first instead of skb-&gt;len. This also fixes
another issue. saddr could hold the wrong data, as serr-&gt;addr_offset
is not initialized  in some code paths, pointing to the start of the
network header. It is only valid when serr-&gt;port is set (non-zero).

msg_control support differs between IPv4 and IPv6. IPv4 only honors
requests for ICMP and timestamps with SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_CMSG. The
skb-&gt;len test can simply be removed, because skb-&gt;dev is also tested
and never true for empty skbs. IPv6 honors requests for all errors
aside from local errors and timestamps on empty skbs.

In both cases, make the policy more explicit by moving this logic to
a new function that decides whether to process msg_control and that
optionally prepares the necessary fields in skb-&gt;cb[]. After this
change, the IPv4 and IPv6 paths are more similar.

The last case is rxrpc. Here, simply refine to only match timestamps.

Fixes: 49ca0d8bfaf3 ("net-timestamp: no-payload option")

<title>tcp: align tcp_xmit_size_goal() on tcp_tso_autosize()</title>

With some mss values, it is possible tcp_xmit_size_goal() puts
one segment more in TSO packet than tcp_tso_autosize().

We send then one TSO packet followed by one single MSS.

It is not a serious bug, but we can do slightly better, especially
for drivers using netif_set_gso_max_size() to lower gso_max_size.

Using same formula avoids these corner cases and makes
tcp_xmit_size_goal() a bit faster.

1. For an IPv4 ping socket, ping_check_bind_addr does not check
   the family of the socket address that's passed in. Instead,
   make it behave like inet_bind, which enforces either that the
   address family is AF_INET, or that the family is AF_UNSPEC and
   the address is 0.0.0.0.
2. For an IPv6 ping socket, ping_check_bind_addr returns EINVAL
   if the socket family is not AF_INET6. Return EAFNOSUPPORT
   instead, for consistency with inet6_bind.
3. Make ping_v4_sendmsg and ping_v6_sendmsg return EAFNOSUPPORT
   instead of EINVAL if an incorrect socket address structure is
   passed in.
4. Make IPv6 ping sockets be IPv6-only. The code does not support
   IPv4, and it cannot easily be made to support IPv4 because
   the protocol numbers for ICMP and ICMPv6 are different. This
   makes connect(::ffff:192.0.2.1) fail with EAFNOSUPPORT instead
   of making the socket unusable.

Among other things, this fixes an oops that can be triggered by:

    int s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, IPPROTO_ICMP);
    struct sockaddr_in6 sin6 = {
        .sin6_family = AF_INET6,
        .sin6_addr = in6addr_any,
    };
    bind(s, (struct sockaddr *) &amp;sin6, sizeof(sin6));

<title>udp: only allow UFO for packets from SOCK_DGRAM sockets</title>

<id>acf8dd0a9d0b9e4cdb597c2f74802f79c699e802</id>
<content type='text'>
If an over-MTU UDP datagram is sent through a SOCK_RAW socket to a
UFO-capable device, ip_ufo_append_data() sets skb-&gt;ip_summed to
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL unconditionally as all GSO code assumes transport layer
checksum is to be computed on segmentation. However, in this case,
skb-&gt;csum_start and skb-&gt;csum_offset are never set as raw socket
transmit path bypasses udp_send_skb() where they are usually set. As a
result, driver may access invalid memory when trying to calculate the
checksum and store the result (as observed in virtio_net driver).

Moreover, the very idea of modifying the userspace provided UDP header
is IMHO against raw socket semantics (I wasn't able to find a document
clearly stating this or the opposite, though). And while allowing
CHECKSUM_NONE in the UFO case would be more efficient, it would be a bit
too intrusive change just to handle a corner case like this. Therefore
disallowing UFO for packets from SOCK_DGRAM seems to be the best option.

<title>tcp: fix tcp_should_expand_sndbuf() to use tcp_packets_in_flight()</title>

tcp_should_expand_sndbuf() does not expand the send buffer if we have
filled the congestion window.

However, it should use tcp_packets_in_flight() instead of
tp-&gt;packets_out to make this check.

Testing has established that the difference matters a lot if there are
many SACKed packets, causing a needless performance shortfall.

IPv6 can keep a copy of SYN message using skb_get() in
tcp_v6_conn_request() so that caller wont free the skb when calling
kfree_skb() later.

Therefore TCP fast open has to clone the skb it is queuing in
child-&gt;sk_receive_queue, as all skbs consumed from receive_queue are
freed using __kfree_skb() (ie assuming skb-&gt;users == 1)
