The variable err is being initialized with a value that is never read
and it is being updated later with a new value.  The initialization is

<title>net: icmp6: do not select saddr from iif when route has prefsrc set</title>

<id>b93cfb9cd3af3adc9ba4854f178d5300f7544d3e</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit fac6fce9bdb5 ("net: icmp6: provide input address for
traceroute6") ICMPv6 errors have source addresses from the ingress
interface. However, this overrides when source address selection is
influenced by setting preferred source addresses on routes.

This can result in ICMP errors being lost to upstream BCP38 filters
when the wrong source addresses are used, breaking path MTU discovery
and traceroute.

This patch sets the modified source address selection to only take place
when the route used has no prefsrc set.

It can be tested with:

ip link add v1 type veth peer name v2
ip netns add test
ip netns exec test ip link set lo up
ip link set v2 netns test
ip link set v1 up
ip netns exec test ip link set v2 up
ip addr add 2001:db8::1/64 dev v1 nodad

ip netns exec test ip addr add 2001:db8::2/64 dev v2 nodad
ip netns exec test ip route add unreachable 2001:db8:1::1

This patch fix the loop iteration by not walking over the last
iteration. The cmpri compressing value exempt the last segment. As the
code shows the last iteration will be overwritten by cmpre value
handling which is for the last segment.

I think this doesn't end in any bufferoverflows because we work on worst
case temporary buffer sizes but it ends in not best compression settings
in some cases.

Currently, we limited the retrans_time to be greater than HZ/2. i.e.
setting retrans_time less than 500ms will not work. This makes the user
unable to achieve a more accurate control for bonding arp fast failover.

Update the sanity check to HZ/100, which is 10ms, to let users have more
ability on the retrans_time control.

v3: sync the behavior with IPv6 and update all the timer handler
v2: use HZ instead of hard code number

Bonding slave and team port devices should not have link-local addresses
automatically added to them, as it can interfere with openvswitch being
able to properly add tc ingress.

(above trimmed to relevant entries, obviously)

Looks like addrconf_sysctl_addr_gen_mode() bypasses the original "is
this a slave interface?" check added by commit c2edacf80e15, and
results in an address getting added, while w/the proposed patch added,
no address gets added. This simply adds the same gating check to another
code path, and thus should prevent the same devices from erroneously
obtaining an ipv6 link-local address.

Refactor the UDP/TCP handlers slightly to allow skb_steal_sock() to make
the determination of whether the socket is reference counted in the case
where it is prefetched by earlier logic such as early_demux.

<title>bpf: Add socket assign support</title>

<id>cf7fbe660f2dbd738ab58aea8e9b0ca6ad232449</id>
<content type='text'>
Add support for TPROXY via a new bpf helper, bpf_sk_assign().

This helper requires the BPF program to discover the socket via a call
to bpf_sk*_lookup_*(), then pass this socket to the new helper. The
helper takes its own reference to the socket in addition to any existing
reference that may or may not currently be obtained for the duration of
BPF processing. For the destination socket to receive the traffic, the
traffic must be routed towards that socket via local route. The
simplest example route is below, but in practice you may want to route
traffic more narrowly (eg by CIDR):

  $ ip route add local default dev lo

This patch avoids trying to introduce an extra bit into the skb-&gt;sk, as
that would require more invasive changes to all code interacting with
the socket to ensure that the bit is handled correctly, such as all
error-handling cases along the path from the helper in BPF through to
the orphan path in the input. Instead, we opt to use the destructor
variable to switch on the prefetch of the socket.
