<title>netfilter: IPv6: initialize TOS field in REJECT target module</title>

<content type='text'>
The IPv6 header is not zeroed out in alloc_skb so we must initialize
it properly unless we want to see IPv6 packets with random TOS fields
floating around. The current implementation resets the flow label
but this could be changed if deemed necessary.

We stumbled upon this issue when trying to apply a mangle rule to
the RST packet generated by the REJECT target module.

commit f3c5c1bfd4308 (make ip_tables reentrant) introduced a race in
handling the stackptr restore, at the end of ipt_do_table()

We should do it before the call to xt_info_rdunlock_bh(), or we allow
cpu preemption and another cpu overwrites stackptr of original one.

A second fix is to change the underflow test to check the origptr value
instead of 0 to detect underflow, or else we allow a jump from different
hooks.

Structures ip6t_replace, compat_ip6t_replace, and xt_get_revision are
copied from userspace.  Fields of these structs that are
zero-terminated strings are not checked.  When they are used as argument
to a format string containing "%s" in request_module(), some sensitive
information is leaked to userspace via argument of spawned modprobe
process.

The first bug was introduced before the git epoch;  the second was
introduced in 3bc3fe5e (v2.6.25-rc1);  the third is introduced by
6b7d31fc (v2.6.15-rc1).  To trigger the bug one should have
CAP_NET_ADMIN.

Create two sets of port member accessors, one set prefixed by fl4_*
and the other prefixed by fl6_*

This will let us to create AF optimal flow instances.

It will work because every context in which we access the ports,
we have to be fully aware of which AF the flowi is anyways.

I intend to turn struct flowi into a union of AF specific flowi
structs.  There will be a common structure that each variant includes
first, much like struct sock_common.

This is the first step to move in that direction.
