[ Upstream commit 13baa00ad01bb3a9f893e3a08cbc2d072fc0c15d ]

It is now very clear that silly TCP listeners might play with
enabling/disabling timestamping while new children are added
to their accept queue.

Meaning net_enable_timestamp() can be called from BH context
while current state of the static key is not enabled.

Lets play safe and allow all contexts.

The work queue is scheduled only under the problematic cases,
which are the static key enable/disable transition, to not slow down
critical paths.

This extends and improves what we did in commit 5fa8bbda38c6 ("net: use
a work queue to defer net_disable_timestamp() work")

Fixes: b90e5794c5bd ("net: dont call jump_label_dec from irq context")

[ Upstream commit 5fa8bbda38c668e56b0c6cdecced2eac2fe36dec ]

Dmitry reported a warning [1] showing that we were calling
net_disable_timestamp() -&gt; static_key_slow_dec() from a non
process context.

Grabbing a mutex while holding a spinlock or rcu_read_lock()
is not allowed.

As Cong suggested, we now use a work queue.

It is possible netstamp_clear() exits while netstamp_needed_deferred
is not zero, but it is probably not worth trying to do better than that.

netstamp_needed_deferred atomic tracks the exact number of deferred
decrements.

[ Upstream commit 7be2c82cfd5d28d7adb66821a992604eb6dd112e ]

Ashizuka reported a highmem oddity and sent a patch for freescale
fec driver.

But the problem root cause is that core networking stack
must ensure no skb with highmem fragment is ever sent through
a device that does not assert NETIF_F_HIGHDMA in its features.

We need to call illegal_highdma() from harmonize_features()
regardless of CSUM checks.

[ Upstream commit 1272ce87fa017ca4cf32920764d879656b7a005a ]

The GRO path has a fast-path where we avoid calling pskb_may_pull
and pskb_expand by directly accessing frag0.  However, this should
only be done if we have enough tailroom in the skb as otherwise
we'll have to expand it later anyway.

This patch adds the check by capping frag0_len with the skb tailroom.

<title>bpf: Fix bpf_redirect to an ipip/ip6tnl dev</title>

<id>urn:sha1:4e3264d21b90984c2165e8fe5a7b64cf25bc2c2d</id>
<content type='text'>
If the bpf program calls bpf_redirect(dev, 0) and dev is
an ipip/ip6tnl, it currently includes the mac header.
e.g. If dev is ipip, the end result is IP-EthHdr-IP instead
of IP-IP.

The fix is to pull the mac header.  At ingress, skb_postpull_rcsum()
is not needed because the ethhdr should have been pulled once already
and then got pushed back just before calling the bpf_prog.
At egress, this patch calls skb_postpull_rcsum().

If bpf_redirect(dev, BPF_F_INGRESS) is called,
it also fails now because it calls dev_forward_skb() which
eventually calls eth_type_trans(skb, dev).  The eth_type_trans()
will set skb-&gt;type = PACKET_OTHERHOST because the mac address
does not match the redirecting dev-&gt;dev_addr.  The PACKET_OTHERHOST
will eventually cause the ip_rcv() errors out.  To fix this,
____dev_forward_skb() is added.

Joint work with Daniel Borkmann.

Sending zero checksum is ok for TCP, but not for UDP.

UDPv6 receiver should by default drop a frame with a 0 checksum,
and UDPv4 would not verify the checksum and might accept a corrupted
packet.

Simply replace such checksum by 0xffff, regardless of transport.

This error was caught on SIT tunnels, but seems generic.

<title>packet: on direct_xmit, limit tso and csum to supported devices</title>

When transmitting on a packet socket with PACKET_VNET_HDR and
PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS, validate device support for features requested
in vnet_hdr.

Drop TSO packets sent to devices that do not support TSO or have the
feature disabled. Note that the latter currently do process those
packets correctly, regardless of not advertising the feature.

Because of SKB_GSO_DODGY, it is not sufficient to test device features
with netif_needs_gso. Full validate_xmit_skb is needed.

Switch to software checksum for non-TSO packets that request checksum
offload if that device feature is unsupported or disabled. Note that
similar to the TSO case, device drivers may perform checksum offload
correctly even when not advertising it.

When switching to software checksum, packets hit skb_checksum_help,
which has two BUG_ON checksum not in linear segment. Packet sockets
always allocate at least up to csum_start + csum_off + 2 as linear.

Tested by running github.com/wdebruij/kerneltools/psock_txring_vnet.c

  ethtool -K eth0 tso off tx on
  psock_txring_vnet -d $dst -s $src -i eth0 -l 2000 -n 1 -q -v
  psock_txring_vnet -d $dst -s $src -i eth0 -l 2000 -n 1 -q -v -N

  ethtool -K eth0 tx off
  psock_txring_vnet -d $dst -s $src -i eth0 -l 1000 -n 1 -q -v -G
  psock_txring_vnet -d $dst -s $src -i eth0 -l 1000 -n 1 -q -v -G -N

v2:
  - add EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(validate_xmit_skb_list)

<title>net: add recursion limit to GRO</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently, GRO can do unlimited recursion through the gro_receive
handlers.  This was fixed for tunneling protocols by limiting tunnel GRO
to one level with encap_mark, but both VLAN and TEB still have this
problem.  Thus, the kernel is vulnerable to a stack overflow, if we
receive a packet composed entirely of VLAN headers.

This patch adds a recursion counter to the GRO layer to prevent stack
overflow.  When a gro_receive function hits the recursion limit, GRO is
aborted for this skb and it is processed normally.  This recursion
counter is put in the GRO CB, but could be turned into a percpu counter
if we run out of space in the CB.

Thanks to Vladimír Beneš &lt;vbenes@redhat.com&gt; for the initial bug report.

Fixes: CVE-2016-7039
Fixes: 9b174d88c257 ("net: Add Transparent Ethernet Bridging GRO support.")
Fixes: 66e5133f19e9 ("vlan: Add GRO support for non hardware accelerated vlan")
