2026-03-17clsact: Fix use-after-free in init/destroy rollback asymmetryDaniel Borkmann
Fix a use-after-free in the clsact qdisc upon init/destroy rollback asymmetry. The latter is achieved by first fully initializing a clsact instance, and then in a second step having a replacement failure for the new clsact qdisc instance. clsact_init() initializes ingress first and then takes care of the egress part. This can fail midway, for example, via tcf_block_get_ext(). Upon failure, the kernel will trigger the clsact_destroy() callback. Commit 1cb6f0bae504 ("bpf: Fix too early release of tcx_entry") details the way how the transition is happening. If tcf_block_get_ext on the q->ingress_block ends up failing, we took the tcx_miniq_inc reference count on the ingress side, but not yet on the egress side. clsact_destroy() tests whether the {ingress,egress}_entry was non-NULL. However, even in midway failure on the replacement, both are in fact non-NULL with a valid egress_entry from the previous clsact instance. What we really need to test for is whether the qdisc instance-specific ingress or egress side previously got initialized. This adds a small helper for checking the miniq initialization called mini_qdisc_pair_inited, and utilizes that upon clsact_destroy() in order to fix the use-after-free scenario. Convert the ingress_destroy() side as well so both are consistent to each other.

After running both workloads concurrently for several iterations, KASAN reports slab-use-after-free or double-free in the skb free path. Fix this by moving dev_reset_queue to sch_generic.h and calling it, instead of qdisc_reset, in teql_destroy since it handles both the lock and lockless cases correctly for root qdiscs.

2026-03-14devlink: introduce shared devlink instance for PFs on same chipJiri Pirko
Multiple PFs may reside on the same physical chip, running a single firmware. Some of the resources and configurations may be shared among these PFs. Currently, there is no good object to pin the configuration knobs on. Introduce a shared devlink instance, instantiated upon probe of the first PF and removed during remove of the last PF. The shared devlink instance is not backed by any device device, as there is no PCI device related to it. The implementation uses reference counting to manage the lifecycle: each PF that probes calls devlink_shd_get() to get or create the shared instance, and calls devlink_shd_put() when it removes. The shared instance is automatically destroyed when the last PF removes. Example: pci/0000:08:00.0: index 0 nested_devlink: auxiliary/mlx5_core.eth.0 devlink_index/1: index 1 nested_devlink: pci/0000:08:00.0 pci/0000:08:00.1 auxiliary/mlx5_core.eth.0: index 2 pci/0000:08:00.1: index 3 nested_devlink: auxiliary/mlx5_core.eth.1 auxiliary/mlx5_core.eth.1: index 4 Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@nvidia.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260312100407.551173-12-jiri@resnulli.us Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

2026-03-14tcp: implement RFC 7323 window retraction receiver requirementsSimon Baatz
By default, the Linux TCP implementation does not shrink the advertised window (RFC 7323 calls this "window retraction") with the following exceptions: - When an incoming segment cannot be added due to the receive buffer running out of memory. Since commit 8c670bdfa58e ("tcp: correct handling of extreme memory squeeze") a zero window will be advertised in this case. It turns out that reaching the required memory pressure is easy when window scaling is in use. In the simplest case, sending a sufficient number of segments smaller than the scale factor to a receiver that does not read data is enough. - Commit b650d953cd39 ("tcp: enforce receive buffer memory limits by allowing the tcp window to shrink") addressed the "eating memory" problem by introducing a sysctl knob that allows shrinking the window before running out of memory. However, RFC 7323 does not only state that shrinking the window is necessary in some cases, it also formulates requirements for TCP implementations when doing so (Section 2.4). This commit addresses the receiver-side requirements: After retracting the window, the peer may have a snd_nxt that lies within a previously advertised window but is now beyond the retracted window. This means that all incoming segments (including pure ACKs) will be rejected until the application happens to read enough data to let the peer's snd_nxt be in window again (which may be never). To comply with RFC 7323, the receiver MUST honor any segment that would have been in window for any ACK sent by the receiver and, when window scaling is in effect, SHOULD track the maximum window sequence number it has advertised. This patch tracks that maximum window sequence number rcv_mwnd_seq throughout the connection and uses it in tcp_sequence() when deciding whether a segment is acceptable. rcv_mwnd_seq is updated together with rcv_wup and rcv_wnd in tcp_select_window(). If we count tcp_sequence() as fast path, it is read in the fast path. Therefore, rcv_mwnd_seq is put into rcv_wnd's cacheline group. The logic for handling received data in tcp_data_queue() is already sufficient and does not need to be updated.

UDP-Lite supports the partial checksum and the coverage is stored in the position of the length field of struct udphdr.

The subsequent processing diverges depending on the value, but such paths are now dead. Also, these functions have some code guarded for UDP: * udp_unicast_rcv_skb / udp6_unicast_rcv_skb * __udp4_lib_rcv() and __udp6_lib_rcv().

2026-03-12vsock: add G2H fallback for CIDs not owned by H2G transportAlexander Graf
When no H2G transport is loaded, vsock currently routes all CIDs to the G2H transport (commit 65b422d9b61b ("vsock: forward all packets to the host when no H2G is registered"). Extend that existing behavior: when an H2G transport is loaded but does not claim a given CID, the connection falls back to G2H in the same way. This matters in environments like Nitro Enclaves, where an instance may run nested VMs via vhost-vsock (H2G) while also needing to reach sibling enclaves at higher CIDs through virtio-vsock-pci (G2H). With the old code, any CID > 2 was unconditionally routed to H2G when vhost was loaded, making those enclaves unreachable without setting VMADDR_FLAG_TO_HOST explicitly on every connect. Requiring every application to set VMADDR_FLAG_TO_HOST creates friction: tools like socat, iperf, and others would all need to learn about it. The flag was introduced 6 years ago and I am still not aware of any tool that supports it. Even if there was support, it would be cumbersome to use. The most natural experience is a single CID address space where H2G only wins for CIDs it actually owns, and everything else falls through to G2H, extending the behavior that already exists when H2G is absent. To give user space at least a hint that the kernel applied this logic, automatically set the VMADDR_FLAG_TO_HOST on the remote address so it can determine the path taken via getpeername(). Add a per-network namespace sysctl net.vsock.g2h_fallback (default 1). At 0 it forces strict routing: H2G always wins for CID > VMADDR_CID_HOST, or ENODEV if H2G is not loaded.

After adding the __rcu annotation to netns_xfrm.nlsk (which silences sparse warnings in the RCU users and __net_init code), we need to tell sparse that the 2nd case is safe. Add a helper for that.

While testing other changes in vng I noticed that nl_netdev.page_pool_check flakes. This never happens in real CI. Turns out vng may boot and get to that test in less than a second. page_pool_detached() records the detach time in seconds, so if vng is fast enough detach time is set to 0. Other code treats 0 as "not detached". detach_time is only used to report the state to the user, so it's not a huge deal in practice but let's fix it. Store the raw ktime_t (nanoseconds) instead.

2026-03-10inet: add ip_local_port_step_width sysctl to improve port usage distributionFernando Fernandez Mancera
With the current port selection algorithm, ports after a reserved port range or long time used port are used more often than others [1]. This causes an uneven port usage distribution. This combines with cloud environments blocking connections between the application server and the database server if there was a previous connection with the same source port, leading to connectivity problems between applications on cloud environments. The real issue here is that these firewalls cannot cope with standards-compliant port reuse. This is a workaround for such situations and an improvement on the distribution of ports selected. The proposed solution is to implement a variant of RFC 6056 Algorithm 5. The step size is selected randomly on every connect() call ensuring it is a coprime with respect to the size of the range of ports we want to scan. This way, we can ensure that all ports within the range are scanned before returning an error. To enable this algorithm, the user must configure the new sysctl option "net.ipv4.ip_local_port_step_width". In addition, on graphs generated we can observe that the distribution of source ports is more even with the proposed approach.

As a part of MANA hardening for CVM, add validation for the doorbell ID (db_id) received from hardware in the GDMA_REGISTER_DEVICE response to prevent out-of-bounds memory access when calculating the doorbell page address. In mana_gd_ring_doorbell(), the doorbell page address is calculated as: addr = db_page_base + db_page_size * db_index = (bar0_va + db_page_off) + db_page_size * db_index A hardware could return values that cause this address to fall outside the BAR0 MMIO region. In Confidential VM environments, hardware responses cannot be fully trusted. Add the following validations: - Store the BAR0 size (bar0_size) in gdma_context during probe. - Validate the doorbell page offset (db_page_off) read from device registers does not exceed bar0_size during initialization, converting mana_gd_init_registers() to return an error code. - Validate db_id from GDMA_REGISTER_DEVICE response against the maximum number of doorbell pages that fit within BAR0.

2026-03-10net: add xmit recursion limit to tunnel xmit functionsWeiming Shi
Tunnel xmit functions (iptunnel_xmit, ip6tunnel_xmit) lack their own recursion limit. When a bond device in broadcast mode has GRE tap interfaces as slaves, and those GRE tunnels route back through the bond, multicast/broadcast traffic triggers infinite recursion between bond_xmit_broadcast() and ip_tunnel_xmit()/ip6_tnl_xmit(), causing kernel stack overflow. The existing XMIT_RECURSION_LIMIT (8) in the no-qdisc path is not sufficient because tunnel recursion involves route lookups and full IP output, consuming much more stack per level. Use a lower limit of 4 (IP_TUNNEL_RECURSION_LIMIT) to prevent overflow. Add recursion detection using dev_xmit_recursion helpers directly in iptunnel_xmit() and ip6tunnel_xmit() to cover all IPv4/IPv6 tunnel paths including UDP encapsulated tunnels (VXLAN, Geneve, etc.). Move dev_xmit_recursion helpers from net/core/dev.h to public header include/linux/netdevice.h so they can be used by tunnel code.

2026-03-09net/sched: refine indirect call mitigation in tc_wrapper.hEric Dumazet
Some modern cpus disable X86_FEATURE_RETPOLINE feature, even if a direct call can still be beneficial. Even when IBRS is present, an indirect call is more expensive than a direct one: Direct Calls: Compilers can perform powerful optimizations like inlining, where the function body is directly inserted at the call site, eliminating call overhead entirely. Indirect Calls: Inlining is much harder, if not impossible, because the compiler doesn't know the target function at compile time. Techniques like Indirect Call Promotion can help by using profile-guided optimization to turn frequently taken indirect calls into conditional direct calls, but they still add complexity and potential overhead compared to a truly direct call. In this patch, I split tc_skip_wrapper in two different static keys, one for tc_act() (tc_skip_wrapper_act) and one for tc_classify() (tc_skip_wrapper_cls). Then I enable the tc_skip_wrapper_cls only if the count of builtin classifiers is above one. I enable tc_skip_wrapper_act only it the count of builtin actions is above one. In our production kernels, we only have CONFIG_NET_CLS_BPF=y and CONFIG_NET_ACT_BPF=y. Other are modules or are not compiled. Tested on AMD Turin cpus, cls_bpf_classify() cost went from 1% down to 0.18 %, and FDO will be able to inline it in tcf_classify() for further gains.

This flag is set to true at device dismantle or linkwatch_do_dev(), and to false for graft operations. In the future, we might only stop one queue instead of the whole device, ie call dev_deactivate_queue() instead of dev_deactivate().

Introduce support for NDP ADDBA and DELBA exchange in mac80211.

2026-03-05tcp: Initialise ehash secrets during connect() and listen().Kuniyuki Iwashima
inet_ehashfn() and inet6_ehashfn() initialise random secrets on the first call by net_get_random_once(). While the init part is patched out using static keys, with CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG=y, this causes a compiler to generate a stack canary due to an automatic variable, unsigned long ___flags, in the DO_ONCE() macro being passed to __do_once_start(). With FDO, this is visible in __inet_lookup_established() and __inet6_lookup_established() too. Let's initialise the secrets by get_random_sleepable_once() in the slow paths: inet_hash() for listen(), and inet_hash_connect() and inet6_hash_connect() for connect(). Note that IPv6 listener will initialise both IPv4 & IPv6 secrets in inet_hash() for IPv4-mapped IPv6 address. With the patch, the stack size is reduced by 16 bytes (___flags + a stack canary) and NOPs for the static key go away. Before: __inet6_lookup_established() ... push %rbx sub $0x38,%rsp # stack is 56 bytes mov %edx,%ebx # sport mov %gs:0x299419f(%rip),%rax # load stack canary mov %rax,0x30(%rsp) and store it onto stack mov 0x440(%rdi),%r15 # net->ipv4.tcp_death_row.hashinfo nop 32: mov %r8d,%ebp # hnum shl $0x10,%ebp # hnum << 16 nop 3d: mov 0x70(%rsp),%r14d # sdif or %ebx,%ebp # INET_COMBINED_PORTS(sport, hnum) mov 0x11a8382(%rip),%eax # inet6_ehashfn() ...

2026-03-05libeth, idpf: use truesize as XDP RxQ info frag_sizeLarysa Zaremba
The only user of frag_size field in XDP RxQ info is bpf_xdp_frags_increase_tail(). It clearly expects whole buffer size instead of DMA write size. Different assumptions in idpf driver configuration lead to negative tailroom. To make it worse, buffer sizes are not actually uniform in idpf when splitq is enabled, as there are several buffer queues, so rxq->rx_buf_size is meaningless in this case. Use truesize of the first bufq in AF_XDP ZC, as there is only one. Disable growing tail for regular splitq.

2026-03-05netfilter: nft_set_pipapo: split gc into unlink and reclaim phaseFlorian Westphal
Yiming Qian reports Use-after-free in the pipapo set type: Under a large number of expired elements, commit-time GC can run for a very long time in a non-preemptible context, triggering soft lockup warnings and RCU stall reports (local denial of service). We must split GC in an unlink and a reclaim phase. We cannot queue elements for freeing until pointers have been swapped. Expired elements are still exposed to both the packet path and userspace dumpers via the live copy of the data structure. call_rcu() does not protect us: dump operations or element lookups starting after call_rcu has fired can still observe the free'd element, unless the commit phase has made enough progress to swap the clone and live pointers before any new reader has picked up the old version. This a similar approach as done recently for the rbtree backend in commit 35f83a75529a ("netfilter: nft_set_rbtree: don't gc elements on insert").
