The flow action buffer can be resized if it's not big enough to contain
all the requested flow actions. However, this resize doesn't take into
account the new requested size, the buffer is only increased by a factor
of 2x. This might be not enough to contain the new data, causing a
buffer overflow, for example:

Patch series "generic radix trees; drop flex arrays".

This patch (of 7):

There was no real need for this code to be using flexarrays, it's just
implementing a hash table - ideally it would be using rhashtables, but
that conversion would be significantly more complicated.

<title>netfilter: nat: remove nf_nat_l3proto.h and nf_nat_core.h</title>

The l3proto name is gone, its header file is the last trace.
While at it, also remove nf_nat_core.h, its very small and all users
include nf_nat.h too.

before:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  22948    1612    4136   28696    7018 nf_nat.ko

  22196	   1516	   4136	  27848	   6cc8 nf_nat.ko

checkpatch complains about overly long lines, but line breaks
do not make things more readable and the line length gets smaller
here, not larger.

... with ipv4/v6 nat now provided directly via nf_nat.ko.

Also changes:
       ret = nf_nat_ipv4_fn(priv, skb, state);
       if (ret != NF_DROP &amp;&amp; ret != NF_STOLEN &amp;&amp;
into
	if (ret != NF_ACCEPT)
		return ret;

everywhere.

The nat hooks never should return anything other than
ACCEPT or DROP (and the latter only in rare error cases).

The original code uses multi-line ANDing including assignment-in-if:
        if (ret != NF_DROP &amp;&amp; ret != NF_STOLEN &amp;&amp;
           !(IPCB(skb)-&gt;flags &amp; IPSKB_XFRM_TRANSFORMED) &amp;&amp;
            (ct = nf_ct_get(skb, &amp;ctinfo)) != NULL) {

I removed this while moving, breaking those in separate conditionals
and moving the assignments into extra lines.

checkpatch still generates some warnings:
 1. Overly long lines (of moved code).
    Breaking them is even more ugly. so I kept this as-is.
 2. use of extern function declarations in a .c file.
    This is necessary evil, we must call
    nf_nat_l3proto_register() from the nat core now.
    All l3proto related functions are removed later in this series,
    those prototypes are then removed as well.

v2: keep empty nf_nat_ipv6_csum_update stub for CONFIG_IPV6=n case.
v3: remove IS_ENABLED(NF_NAT_IPV4/6) tests, NF_NAT_IPVx toggles
    are removed here.
v4: also get rid of the assignments in conditionals.

====================
Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS updates for your net-next tree:

1) Introduce a hashtable to speed up object lookups, from Florian Westphal.

2) Make direct calls to built-in extension, also from Florian.

3) Call helper before confirming the conntrack as it used to be originally,
   from Florian.

4) Call request_module() to autoload br_netfilter when physdev is used
   to relax the dependency, also from Florian.

5) Allow to insert rules at a given position ID that is internal to the
   batch, from Phil Sutter.

6) Several patches to replace conntrack indirections by direct calls,
   and to reduce modularization, from Florian. This also includes
   several follow up patches to deal with minor fallout from this
   rework.

7) Use RCU from conntrack gre helper, from Florian.

8) GRE conntrack module becomes built-in into nf_conntrack, from Florian.

9) Replace nf_ct_invert_tuplepr() by calls to nf_ct_invert_tuple(),
   from Florian.

10) Unify sysctl handling at the core of nf_conntrack, from Florian.

11) Provide modparam to register conntrack hooks.

12) Allow to match on the interface kind string, from wenxu.

13) Remove several exported symbols, not required anymore now after
    a bit of de-modulatization work has been done, from Florian.

14) Remove built-in map support in the hash extension, this can be
    done with the existing userspace infrastructure, from laura.

15) Remove indirection to calculate checksums in IPVS, from Matteo Croce.

16) Use call wrappers for indirection in IPVS, also from Matteo.

17) Remove superfluous __percpu parameter in nft_counter, patch from
    Luc Van Oostenryck.

====================
Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS updates for your net-next tree:

1) Introduce a hashtable to speed up object lookups, from Florian Westphal.

2) Make direct calls to built-in extension, also from Florian.

3) Call helper before confirming the conntrack as it used to be originally,
   from Florian.

4) Call request_module() to autoload br_netfilter when physdev is used
   to relax the dependency, also from Florian.

5) Allow to insert rules at a given position ID that is internal to the
   batch, from Phil Sutter.

6) Several patches to replace conntrack indirections by direct calls,
   and to reduce modularization, from Florian. This also includes
   several follow up patches to deal with minor fallout from this
   rework.

7) Use RCU from conntrack gre helper, from Florian.

8) GRE conntrack module becomes built-in into nf_conntrack, from Florian.

9) Replace nf_ct_invert_tuplepr() by calls to nf_ct_invert_tuple(),
   from Florian.

10) Unify sysctl handling at the core of nf_conntrack, from Florian.

11) Provide modparam to register conntrack hooks.

12) Allow to match on the interface kind string, from wenxu.

13) Remove several exported symbols, not required anymore now after
    a bit of de-modulatization work has been done, from Florian.

14) Remove built-in map support in the hash extension, this can be
    done with the existing userspace infrastructure, from laura.

<title>netfilter: conntrack: avoid unneeded nf_conntrack_l4proto lookups</title>

after removal of the packet and invert function pointers, several
places do not need to lookup the l4proto structure anymore.

Remove those lookups.
The function nf_ct_invert_tuplepr becomes redundant, replace
it with nf_ct_invert_tuple everywhere.

<title>openvswitch: meter: Use struct_size() in kzalloc()</title>

One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding the
size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along with memory
for some number of elements for that array. For example:

struct foo {
    int stuff;
    struct boo entry[];
};

instance = kzalloc(sizeof(struct foo) + count * sizeof(struct boo), GFP_KERNEL);

Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can now
use the new struct_size() helper:

instance = kzalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL);

This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
