<title>mpls: Do not orphan the skb</title>

We observed that TCP-pacing was falling back to the TCP-layer pacing
instead of utilizing sch_fq for the pacing. This causes significant
CPU-usage due to the hrtimer running on a per-TCP-connection basis.

The issue is that mpls_xmit() calls skb_orphan() and thus sets
skb-&gt;sk to NULL. Which implies that many of the goodies of TCP won't
work. Pacing falls back to TCP-layer pacing. TCP Small Queues does not
work, ...

It is safe to remove this call to skb_orphan() in mpls_xmit() as there
really is not reason for it to be there. It appears that this call to
skb_orphan comes from the very initial implementation of MPLS.

Add a new field into struct fib_dump_filter, to let callers
tell if they use RTNL locking or RCU.

This is used in the following patch, when inet_dump_fib()
no longer holds RTNL.

mpls_gso_segment() assumes skb_inner_network_header() returns

First iteration of this patch made mpls_hlen signed and changed

 &gt; I was thinking about adding a debug check in skb_inner_network_header()
 &gt; if inner_network_header is zero (that would mean it is not 'set' yet),
 &gt; but this would trigger even after your patch.

So add new skb_inner_network_header_was_set() helper and use that.

The syzbot reproducer injects data via packet socket. The skb that gets
allocated and passed down the stack has -&gt;protocol set to NSH (0x894f)
and gso_type set to SKB_GSO_UDP | SKB_GSO_DODGY.

This gets passed to skb_mac_gso_segment(), which sees NSH as ptype to
find a callback for.  nsh_gso_segment() retrieves next type:

        proto = tun_p_to_eth_p(nsh_hdr(skb)-&gt;np);

... which is MPLS (TUN_P_MPLS_UC). It updates skb-&gt;protocol and then
calls mpls_gso_segment().  Inner offsets are all 0, so mpls_gso_segment()
ends up with a negative header size.

In case more callers rely on silent handling of such large may_pull values
we could also 'legalize' this behaviour, either replacing the debug check
with (len &gt; INT_MAX) test or removing it and instead adding a comment
before existing

 if (unlikely(len &gt; skb-&gt;len))
    return SKB_DROP_REASON_PKT_TOO_SMALL;

test in pskb_may_pull_reason(), saying that this check also implicitly
takes care of callers that miscompute header sizes.

<title>networking: Update to register_net_sysctl_sz</title>

<id>c899710fe7f9f24dd77135875f199359f7b8b774</id>
<content type='text'>
Move from register_net_sysctl to register_net_sysctl_sz for all the
networking related files. Do this while making sure to mirror the NULL
assignments with a table_size of zero for the unprivileged users.

We need to move to the new function in preparation for when we change
SIZE_MAX to ARRAY_SIZE() in the register_net_sysctl macro. Failing to do
so would erroneously allow ARRAY_SIZE() to be called on a pointer. We
hold off the SIZE_MAX to ARRAY_SIZE change until we have migrated all
the relevant net sysctl registering functions to register_net_sysctl_sz
in subsequent commits.

An additional size function was added to the following files in order to
calculate the size of an array that is defined in another file:
    include/net/ipv6.h
    net/ipv6/icmp.c
    net/ipv6/route.c
    net/ipv6/sysctl_net_ipv6.c

<pre>
Move from register_net_sysctl to register_net_sysctl_sz for all the
networking related files. Do this while making sure to mirror the NULL
assignments with a table_size of zero for the unprivileged users.

We need to move to the new function in preparation for when we change
SIZE_MAX to ARRAY_SIZE() in the register_net_sysctl macro. Failing to do
so would erroneously allow ARRAY_SIZE() to be called on a pointer. We
hold off the SIZE_MAX to ARRAY_SIZE change until we have migrated all
the relevant net sysctl registering functions to register_net_sysctl_sz
in subsequent commits.

An additional size function was added to the following files in order to
calculate the size of an array that is defined in another file:
    include/net/ipv6.h
    net/ipv6/icmp.c
    net/ipv6/route.c
    net/ipv6/sysctl_net_ipv6.c

<title>net: mpls: fix stale pointer if allocation fails during device rename</title>

lianhui reports that when MPLS fails to register the sysctl table
under new location (during device rename) the old pointers won't
get overwritten and may be freed again (double free).

Handle this gracefully. The best option would be unregistering
the MPLS from the device completely on failure, but unfortunately
mpls_ifdown() can fail. So failing fully is also unreliable.

Another option is to register the new table first then only
remove old one if the new one succeeds. That requires more
code, changes order of notifications and two tables may be
visible at the same time.

sysctl point is not used in the rest of the code - set to NULL
on failures and skip unregister if already NULL.

Now that the 32bit UP oddity is gone and 32bit uses always a sequence
count, there is no need for the fetch_irq() variants anymore.

Convert to the regular interface.

<title>net: Use u64_stats_fetch_begin_irq() for stats fetch.</title>

On 32bit-UP u64_stats_fetch_begin() disables only preemption. If the
reader is in preemptible context and the writer side
(u64_stats_update_begin*()) runs in an interrupt context (IRQ or
softirq) then the writer can update the stats during the read operation.
This update remains undetected.

Use u64_stats_fetch_begin_irq() to ensure the stats fetch on 32bit-UP
are not interrupted by a writer. 32bit-SMP remains unaffected by this
change.
