commit bddc0c411a45d3718ac535a070f349be8eca8d48 upstream.

The commit cb17ed29a7a5 ("mac80211: parse radiotap header when selecting Tx
queue") moved the code to validate the radiotap header from
ieee80211_monitor_start_xmit to ieee80211_parse_tx_radiotap. This made is
possible to share more code with the new Tx queue selection code for
injected frames. But at the same time, it now required the call of
ieee80211_parse_tx_radiotap at the beginning of functions which wanted to
handle the radiotap header. And this broke the rate parser for radiotap
header parser.

The radiotap parser for rates is operating most of the time only on the
data in the actual radiotap header. But for the 802.11a/b/g rates, it must
also know the selected band from the chandef information. But this
information is only written to the ieee80211_tx_info at the end of the
ieee80211_monitor_start_xmit - long after ieee80211_parse_tx_radiotap was
already called. The info-&gt;band information was therefore always 0
(NL80211_BAND_2GHZ) when the parser code tried to access it.

For a 5GHz only device, injecting a frame with 802.11a rates would cause a
NULL pointer dereference because local-&gt;hw.wiphy-&gt;bands[NL80211_BAND_2GHZ]
would most likely have been NULL when the radiotap parser searched for the
correct rate index of the driver.

[ Upstream commit ea6932d70e223e02fea3ae20a4feff05d7c1ea9a ]

There is a panic in socket ioctl cmd SIOCGSKNS when NET_NS is not enabled.
The reason is that nsfs tries to access ns-&gt;ops but the proc_ns_operations
is not implemented in this case.

The same to tun SIOCGSKNS command.

To fix this problem, we make get_net_ns() return -EINVAL when NET_NS is
disabled. Meanwhile move it to right place net/core/net_namespace.c.

<title>net/tls: Fix use-after-free after the TLS device goes down and up</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit c55dcdd435aa6c6ad6ccac0a4c636d010ee367a4 ]

When a netdev with active TLS offload goes down, tls_device_down is
called to stop the offload and tear down the TLS context. However, the
socket stays alive, and it still points to the TLS context, which is now
deallocated. If a netdev goes up, while the connection is still active,
and the data flow resumes after a number of TCP retransmissions, it will
lead to a use-after-free of the TLS context.

This commit addresses this bug by keeping the context alive until its
normal destruction, and implements the necessary fallbacks, so that the
connection can resume in software (non-offloaded) kTLS mode.

On the TX side tls_sw_fallback is used to encrypt all packets. The RX
side already has all the necessary fallbacks, because receiving
non-decrypted packets is supported. The thing needed on the RX side is
to block resync requests, which are normally produced after receiving
non-decrypted packets.

The necessary synchronization is implemented for a graceful teardown:
first the fallbacks are deployed, then the driver resources are released
(it used to be possible to have a tls_dev_resync after tls_dev_del).

A new flag called TLS_RX_DEV_DEGRADED is added to indicate the fallback
mode. It's used to skip the RX resync logic completely, as it becomes
useless, and some objects may be released (for example, resync_async,
which is allocated and freed by the driver).

RCU synchronization is guaranteed to finish in finite time, unlike a
busy loop that polls a flag. This patch is a preparation for the bugfix
in the next patch, where the same synchronize_net() call will also be
used to sync with the TX datapath.

<title>net: zero-initialize tc skb extension on allocation</title>

[ Upstream commit 9453d45ecb6c2199d72e73c993e9d98677a2801b ]

Function skb_ext_add() doesn't initialize created skb extension with any
value and leaves it up to the user. However, since extension of type
TC_SKB_EXT originally contained only single value tc_skb_ext-&gt;chain its
users used to just assign the chain value without setting whole extension
memory to zero first. This assumption changed when TC_SKB_EXT extension was
extended with additional fields but not all users were updated to
initialize the new fields which leads to use of uninitialized memory
afterwards. UBSAN log:

Fix the issue by providing new function tc_skb_ext_alloc() that allocates
tc skb extension and initializes its memory to 0 before returning it to the
caller. Change all existing users to use new API instead of calling
skb_ext_add() directly.

qdisc before calling __qdisc_run(), which ultimately clear the
STATE_MISSED when all the skb is dequeued. If STATE_DEACTIVATED
is set before clearing STATE_MISSED, there may be rescheduling
of net_tx_action() at the end of qdisc_run_end(), see below:

CPU0(net_tx_atcion)  CPU1(__dev_xmit_skb)  CPU2(dev_deactivate)
          .                   .                     .
          .            set STATE_MISSED             .
          .           __netif_schedule()            .
          .                   .           set STATE_DEACTIVATED
          .                   .                qdisc_reset()
          .                   .                     .
          .&lt;---------------   .              synchronize_net()
clear __QDISC_STATE_SCHED  |  .                     .
          .                |  .                     .
          .                |  .            some_qdisc_is_busy()
          .                |  .               return *false*
          .                |  .                     .
  test STATE_DEACTIVATED   |  .                     .
__qdisc_run() *not* called |  .                     .
          .                |  .                     .
   test STATE_MISS         |  .                     .
 __netif_schedule()--------|  .                     .
          .                   .                     .
          .                   .                     .

__qdisc_run() is not called by net_tx_atcion() in CPU0 because
CPU2 has set STATE_DEACTIVATED flag during dev_deactivate(), and
STATE_MISSED is only cleared in __qdisc_run(), __netif_schedule
is called at the end of qdisc_run_end(), causing tx action
rescheduling problem.

qdisc_run() called by net_tx_action() runs in the softirq context,
which should has the same semantic as the qdisc_run() called by
__dev_xmit_skb() protected by rcu_read_lock_bh(). And there is a
synchronize_net() between STATE_DEACTIVATED flag being set and
qdisc_reset()/some_qdisc_is_busy in dev_deactivate(), we can safely
bail out for the deactived lockless qdisc in net_tx_action(), and
qdisc_reset() will reset all skb not dequeued yet.

So add the rcu_read_lock() explicitly to protect the qdisc_run()
and do the STATE_DEACTIVATED checking in net_tx_action() before
calling qdisc_run_begin(). Another option is to do the checking in
the qdisc_run_end(), but it will add unnecessary overhead for
non-tx_action case, because __dev_queue_xmit() will not see qdisc
with STATE_DEACTIVATED after synchronize_net(), the qdisc with
STATE_DEACTIVATED can only be seen by net_tx_action() because of
__netif_schedule().

The STATE_DEACTIVATED checking in qdisc_run() is to avoid race
between net_tx_action() and qdisc_reset(), see:
commit d518d2ed8640 ("net/sched: fix race between deactivation
and dequeue for NOLOCK qdisc"). As the bailout added above for
deactived lockless qdisc in net_tx_action() provides better
protection for the race without calling qdisc_run() at all, so
remove the STATE_DEACTIVATED checking in qdisc_run().

After qdisc_reset(), there is no skb in qdisc to be dequeued, so
clear the STATE_MISSED in dev_reset_queue() too.

[ Upstream commit a90c57f2cedd52a511f739fb55e6244e22e1a2fb ]

Lockless qdisc has below concurrent problem:
    cpu0                 cpu1
     .                     .
q-&gt;enqueue                 .
     .                     .
qdisc_run_begin()          .
     .                     .
dequeue_skb()              .
     .                     .
sch_direct_xmit()          .
     .                     .
     .                q-&gt;enqueue
     .             qdisc_run_begin()
     .            return and do nothing
     .                     .
qdisc_run_end()            .

cpu1 enqueue a skb without calling __qdisc_run() because cpu0
has not released the lock yet and spin_trylock() return false
for cpu1 in qdisc_run_begin(), and cpu0 do not see the skb
enqueued by cpu1 when calling dequeue_skb() because cpu1 may
enqueue the skb after cpu0 calling dequeue_skb() and before
cpu0 calling qdisc_run_end().

Lockless qdisc has below another concurrent problem when
tx_action is involved:

cpu0(serving tx_action)     cpu1             cpu2
          .                   .                .
          .              q-&gt;enqueue            .
          .            qdisc_run_begin()       .
          .              dequeue_skb()         .
          .                   .            q-&gt;enqueue
          .                   .                .
          .             sch_direct_xmit()      .
          .                   .         qdisc_run_begin()
          .                   .       return and do nothing
          .                   .                .
 clear __QDISC_STATE_SCHED    .                .
 qdisc_run_begin()            .                .
 return and do nothing        .                .
          .                   .                .
          .            qdisc_run_end()         .

This patch fixes the above data race by:
1. If the first spin_trylock() return false and STATE_MISSED is
   not set, set STATE_MISSED and retry another spin_trylock() in
   case other CPU may not see STATE_MISSED after it releases the
   lock.
2. reschedule if STATE_MISSED is set after the lock is released
   at the end of qdisc_run_end().

For tx_action case, STATE_MISSED is also set when cpu1 is at the
end if qdisc_run_end(), so tx_action will be rescheduled again
to dequeue the skb enqueued by cpu2.

Clear STATE_MISSED before retrying a dequeuing when dequeuing
returns NULL in order to reduce the overhead of the second
spin_trylock() and __netif_schedule() calling.

Also clear the STATE_MISSED before calling __netif_schedule()
at the end of qdisc_run_end() to avoid doing another round of
dequeuing in the pfifo_fast_dequeue().

The performance impact of this patch, tested using pktgen and
dummy netdev with pfifo_fast qdisc attached:

 threads  without+this_patch   with+this_patch      delta
    1        2.61Mpps            2.60Mpps           -0.3%
    2        3.97Mpps            3.82Mpps           -3.7%
    4        5.62Mpps            5.59Mpps           -0.5%
    8        2.78Mpps            2.77Mpps           -0.3%
   16        2.22Mpps            2.22Mpps           -0.0%

[ Upstream commit 098116e7e640ba677d9e345cbee83d253c13d556 ]

If the owing socket is shutting down - e.g. the sock reference
count already dropped to 0 and only sk_wmem_alloc is keeping
the sock alive, skb_orphan_partial() becomes a no-op.

When forwarding packets over veth with GRO enabled, the above
causes refcount errors.

This change addresses the issue with a plain skb_orphan() call
in the critical scenario.
