When trace->type.bit6 is set:

    if (trace->type.bit6) {
        ...
        queue = skb_get_tx_queue(dev, skb);
        qdisc = rcu_dereference(queue->qdisc);

This code can lead to an out-of-bounds access of the dev->_tx[] array
when is_input is true. In such a case, the packet is on the RX path and
skb->queue_mapping contains the RX queue index of the ingress device. If
the ingress device has more RX queues than the egress device (dev) has
TX queues, skb_get_queue_mapping(skb) will exceed dev->num_tx_queues.
Add a check to avoid this situation since skb_get_tx_queue() does not
clamp the index. This issue has also revealed that per queue visibility
cannot be accurate and will be replaced later as a new feature.

While at it, add missing lock around qdisc_qstats_qlen_backlog(). The
function __ioam6_fill_trace_data() is called from both softirq and
process contexts, hence the use of spin_lock_bh() here.

`eui64_mt6()` derives a modified EUI-64 from the Ethernet source address
and compares it with the low 64 bits of the IPv6 source address.

The existing guard only rejects an invalid MAC header when
`par->fragoff != 0`. For packets with `par->fragoff == 0`, `eui64_mt6()`
can still reach `eth_hdr(skb)` even when the MAC header is not valid.

Fix this by removing the `par->fragoff != 0` condition so that packets
with an invalid MAC header are rejected before accessing `eth_hdr(skb)`.

The seg6 lwtunnel uses a single dst_cache per encap route, shared
between seg6_input_core() and seg6_output_core(). These two paths
can perform the post-encap SID lookup in different routing contexts
(e.g., ip rules matching on the ingress interface, or VRF table
separation). Whichever path runs first populates the cache, and the
other reuses it blindly, bypassing its own lookup.

Fix this by splitting the cache into cache_input and cache_output,
so each path maintains its own cached dst independently.

After async crypto completes, xfrm_input_resume() calls dev_put()
immediately on re-entry before the skb reaches transport_finish.
The skb->dev pointer is then used inside NF_HOOK and its okfn,
which can race with device teardown.

Remove the dev_put from the async resumption entry and instead
drop the reference after the NF_HOOK call in transport_finish,
using a saved device pointer since NF_HOOK may consume the skb.
This covers NF_DROP, NF_QUEUE and NF_STOLEN paths that skip
the okfn.

For non-transport exits (decaps, gro, drop) and secondary
async return points, release the reference inline when
async is set.

<quote>
 I believe I found a locally triggerable kernel bug in the IPv6 sendmsg
 ancillary-data path that can panic the kernel via `skb_under_panic()`
 (local DoS).

 The core issue is a mismatch between:

 - a 16-bit length accumulator (`struct ipv6_txoptions::opt_flen`, type
 `__u16`) and
 - a pointer to the *last* provided destination-options header (`opt->dst1opt`)

 when multiple `IPV6_DSTOPTS` control messages (cmsgs) are provided.

 - `include/net/ipv6.h`:
   - `struct ipv6_txoptions::opt_flen` is `__u16` (wrap possible).
 (lines 291-307, especially 298)
 - `net/ipv6/datagram.c:ip6_datagram_send_ctl()`:
   - Accepts repeated `IPV6_DSTOPTS` and accumulates into `opt_flen`
 without rejecting duplicates. (lines 909-933)
 - `net/ipv6/ip6_output.c:__ip6_append_data()`:
   - Uses `opt->opt_flen + opt->opt_nflen` to compute header
 sizes/headroom decisions. (lines 1448-1466, especially 1463-1465)
 - `net/ipv6/ip6_output.c:__ip6_make_skb()`:
   - Calls `ipv6_push_frag_opts()` if `opt->opt_flen` is non-zero.
 (lines 1930-1934)
 - `net/ipv6/exthdrs.c:ipv6_push_frag_opts()` / `ipv6_push_exthdr()`:
   - Push size comes from `ipv6_optlen(opt->dst1opt)` (based on the
 pointed-to header). (lines 1179-1185 and 1206-1211)

 1. `opt_flen` is a 16-bit accumulator:

 - `include/net/ipv6.h:298` defines `__u16 opt_flen; /* after fragment hdr */`.

 2. `ip6_datagram_send_ctl()` accepts *repeated* `IPV6_DSTOPTS` cmsgs
 and increments `opt_flen` each time:

 - In `net/ipv6/datagram.c:909-933`, for `IPV6_DSTOPTS`:
   - It computes `len = ((hdr->hdrlen + 1) << 3);`
   - It checks `CAP_NET_RAW` using `ns_capable(net->user_ns,
 CAP_NET_RAW)`. (line 922)
   - Then it does:
     - `opt->opt_flen += len;` (line 927)
     - `opt->dst1opt = hdr;` (line 928)

 There is no duplicate rejection here (unlike the legacy
 `IPV6_2292DSTOPTS` path which rejects duplicates at
 `net/ipv6/datagram.c:901-904`).

 If enough large `IPV6_DSTOPTS` cmsgs are provided, `opt_flen` wraps
 while `dst1opt` still points to a large (2048-byte)
 destination-options header.

 In the attached PoC (`poc.c`):

 - 32 cmsgs with `hdrlen=255` => `len = (255+1)*8 = 2048`
 - 1 cmsg with `hdrlen=0` => `len = 8`
 - Total increment: `32*2048 + 8 = 65544`, so `(__u16)opt_flen == 8`
 - The last cmsg is 2048 bytes, so `dst1opt` points to a 2048-byte header.

 3. The transmit path sizes headers using the wrapped `opt_flen`:

- In `net/ipv6/ip6_output.c:1463-1465`:
  - `headersize = sizeof(struct ipv6hdr) + (opt ? opt->opt_flen +
 opt->opt_nflen : 0) + ...;`

 With wrapped `opt_flen`, `headersize`/headroom decisions underestimate
 what will be pushed later.

 4. When building the final skb, the actual push length comes from
 `dst1opt` and is not limited by wrapped `opt_flen`:

 - In `net/ipv6/ip6_output.c:1930-1934`:
   - `if (opt->opt_flen) proto = ipv6_push_frag_opts(skb, opt, proto);`
 - In `net/ipv6/exthdrs.c:1206-1211`, `ipv6_push_frag_opts()` pushes
 `dst1opt` via `ipv6_push_exthdr()`.
 - In `net/ipv6/exthdrs.c:1179-1184`, `ipv6_push_exthdr()` does:
   - `skb_push(skb, ipv6_optlen(opt));`
   - `memcpy(h, opt, ipv6_optlen(opt));`

 With insufficient headroom, `skb_push()` underflows and triggers
 `skb_under_panic()` -> `BUG()`:

 - `net/core/skbuff.c:2669-2675` (`skb_push()` calls `skb_under_panic()`)
 - `net/core/skbuff.c:207-214` (`skb_panic()` ends in `BUG()`)

 - The `IPV6_DSTOPTS` cmsg path requires `CAP_NET_RAW` in the target
 netns user namespace (`ns_capable(net->user_ns, CAP_NET_RAW)`).
 - Root (or any task with `CAP_NET_RAW`) can trigger this without user
 namespaces.
 - An unprivileged `uid=1000` user can trigger this if unprivileged
 user namespaces are enabled and it can create a userns+netns to obtain
 namespaced `CAP_NET_RAW` (the attached PoC does this).

 - Local denial of service: kernel BUG/panic (system crash).
 - Reproducible with a small userspace PoC.

This patch does not reject duplicated options, as this might break
some user applications.

Instead, it makes sure to adjust opt_flen and opt_nflen to correctly
reflect the size of the current option headers, preventing the overflows
and the potential for panics.

This applies to IPV6_DSTOPTS, IPV6_HOPOPTS, and IPV6_RTHDR.

Specifically:

When a new IPV6_DSTOPTS is processed, the length of the old opt->dst1opt
is subtracted from opt->opt_flen before adding the new length.

When a new IPV6_HOPOPTS is processed, the length of the old opt->dst0opt
is subtracted from opt->opt_nflen.

When a new Routing Header (IPV6_RTHDR or IPV6_2292RTHDR) is processed,
the length of the old opt->srcrt is subtracted from opt->opt_nflen.

In the special case within IPV6_2292RTHDR handling where dst1opt is moved
to dst0opt, the length of the old opt->dst0opt is subtracted from
opt->opt_nflen before the new one is added.

fib6_metric_set() may be called concurrently from softirq context without
holding the FIB table lock. A typical path is:

  ndisc_router_discovery()
    spin_unlock_bh(&table->tb6_lock)        <- lock released
    fib6_metric_set(rt, RTAX_HOPLIMIT, ...) <- lockless call

When two CPUs process Router Advertisement packets for the same router
simultaneously, they can both arrive at fib6_metric_set() with the same
fib6_info pointer whose fib6_metrics still points to dst_default_metrics.

  if (f6i->fib6_metrics == &dst_default_metrics) {   /* both CPUs: true */
      struct dst_metrics *p = kzalloc_obj(*p, GFP_ATOMIC);
      refcount_set(&p->refcnt, 1);
      f6i->fib6_metrics = p;   /* CPU1 overwrites CPU0's p -> p0 leaked */
  }

The dst_metrics allocated by the losing CPU has refcnt=1 but no pointer
to it anywhere in memory, producing a kmemleak report:

  unreferenced object 0xff1100025aca1400 (size 96):
    comm "softirq", pid 0, jiffies 4299271239
    backtrace:
      kmalloc_trace+0x28a/0x380
      fib6_metric_set+0xcd/0x180
      ndisc_router_discovery+0x12dc/0x24b0
      icmpv6_rcv+0xc16/0x1360

Fix this by:
 - Set val for p->metrics before published via cmpxchg() so the metrics
   value is ready before the pointer becomes visible to other CPUs.
 - Replace the plain pointer store with cmpxchg() and free the allocation
   safely when competition failed.
 - Add READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() for metrics[] setting in the non-default
   metrics path to prevent compiler-based data races.

`ip6fl_seq_show()` walks the global flowlabel hash under the seq-file
RCU read-side lock and prints `fl->opt->opt_nflen` when an option block
is present.

Exclusive flowlabels currently free `fl->opt` as soon as `fl->users`
drops to zero in `fl_release()`. However, the surrounding
`struct ip6_flowlabel` remains visible in the global hash table until
later garbage collection removes it and `fl_free_rcu()` finally tears it
down.

A concurrent `/proc/net/ip6_flowlabel` reader can therefore race that
early `kfree()` and dereference freed option state, triggering a crash
in `ip6fl_seq_show()`.

Fix this by keeping `fl->opt` alive until `fl_free_rcu()`. That matches
the lifetime already required for the enclosing flowlabel while readers
can still reach it under RCU.
