[ Upstream commit d09486a04f5da0a812c26217213b89a3b1acf836 ]

Mark reports a BUG() when a net namespace is removed.

    kernel BUG at net/core/dev.c:11520!

Physical interfaces moved outside of init_net get "refunded"
to init_net when that namespace disappears. The main interface
name may get overwritten in the process if it would have
conflicted. We need to also discard all conflicting altnames.
Recent fixes addressed ensuring that altnames get moved
with the main interface, which surfaced this problem.

====================
pull-request: bpf-next 2023-10-26

We've added 51 non-merge commits during the last 10 day(s) which contain
a total of 75 files changed, 5037 insertions(+), 200 deletions(-).

The main changes are:

1) Add open-coded task, css_task and css iterator support.
   One of the use cases is customizable OOM victim selection via BPF,
   from Chuyi Zhou.

2) Fix BPF verifier's iterator convergence logic to use exact states
   comparison for convergence checks, from Eduard Zingerman,
   Andrii Nakryiko and Alexei Starovoitov.

3) Add BPF programmable net device where bpf_mprog defines the logic
   of its xmit routine. It can operate in L3 and L2 mode,
   from Daniel Borkmann and Nikolay Aleksandrov.

4) Batch of fixes for BPF per-CPU kptr and re-enable unit_size checking
   for global per-CPU allocator, from Hou Tao.

5) Fix libbpf which eagerly assumed that SHT_GNU_verdef ELF section
   was going to be present whenever a binary has SHT_GNU_versym section,
   from Andrii Nakryiko.

6) Fix BPF ringbuf correctness to fold smp_mb__before_atomic() into
   atomic_set_release(), from Paul E. McKenney.

7) Add a warning if NAPI callback missed xdp_do_flush() under
   CONFIG_DEBUG_NET which helps checking if drivers were missing
   the former, from Sebastian Andrzej Siewior.

8) Fix missed RCU read-lock in bpf_task_under_cgroup() which was throwing
   a warning under sleepable programs, from Yafang Shao.

9) Avoid unnecessary -EBUSY from htab_lock_bucket by disabling IRQ before
   checking map_locked, from Song Liu.

10) Make BPF CI linked_list failure test more robust,
    from Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi.

11) Enable samples/bpf to be built as PIE in Fedora, from Viktor Malik.

12) Fix xsk starving when multiple xsk sockets were associated with
    a single xsk_buff_pool, from Albert Huang.

13) Clarify the signed modulo implementation for the BPF ISA standardization
    document that it uses truncated division, from Dave Thaler.

14) Improve BPF verifier's JEQ/JNE branch taken logic to also consider
    signed bounds knowledge, from Andrii Nakryiko.

15) Add an option to XDP selftests to use multi-buffer AF_XDP
    xdp_hw_metadata and mark used XDP programs as capable to use frags,
    from Larysa Zaremba.

16) Fix bpftool's BTF dumper wrt printing a pointer value and another
    one to fix struct_ops dump in an array, from Manu Bretelle.

<title>net: check for altname conflicts when changing netdev's netns</title>

<id>urn:sha1:7663d522099ecc464512164e660bc771b2ff7b64</id>
<content type='text'>
It's currently possible to create an altname conflicting
with an altname or real name of another device by creating
it in another netns and moving it over:

 [ ~]$ ip link add dev eth0 type dummy

 [ ~]$ ip netns add test
 [ ~]$ ip -netns test link add dev ethX netns test type dummy
 [ ~]$ ip -netns test link property add dev ethX altname eth0
 [ ~]$ ip -netns test link set dev ethX netns 1

 [ ~]$ ip link
 ...
 3: eth0: &lt;BROADCAST,NOARP&gt; mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
     link/ether 02:40:88:62:ec:b8 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
 ...
 5: ethX: &lt;BROADCAST,NOARP&gt; mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
     link/ether 26:b7:28:78:38:0f brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
     altname eth0

Create a macro for walking the altnames, this hopefully makes
it clearer that the list we walk contains only altnames.
Which is otherwise not entirely intuitive.

<content type='text'>
A few drivers were missing a xdp_do_flush() invocation after
XDP_REDIRECT.

Add three helper functions each for one of the per-CPU lists. Return
true if the per-CPU list is non-empty and flush the list.

Add xdp_do_check_flushed() which invokes each helper functions and
creates a warning if one of the functions had a non-empty list.

Hide everything behind CONFIG_DEBUG_NET.

<title>net: add gso_ipv4_max_size and gro_ipv4_max_size per device</title>

<id>urn:sha1:9eefedd58ae1daece2ba907849a44db2941fb4b0</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch introduces gso_ipv4_max_size and gro_ipv4_max_size
per device and adds netlink attributes for them, so that IPV4
BIG TCP can be guarded by a separate tunable in the next patch.

To not break the old application using "gso/gro_max_size" for
IPv4 GSO packets, this patch updates "gso/gro_ipv4_max_size"
in netif_set_gso/gro_max_size() if the new size isn't greater
than GSO_LEGACY_MAX_SIZE, so that nothing will change even if
userspace doesn't realize the new netlink attributes.

Add new helper unregister_netdevice_many_notify(), pass netlink message
header and portid, which could be used to notify userspace when flag
NLM_F_ECHO is set.

Make the unregister_netdevice_many() as a wrapper of new function
unregister_netdevice_many_notify().

This patch pass netlink message header and portid to rtnl_configure_link()
All the functions in this call chain need to add the parameters so we can
use them in the last call rtnl_notify(), and notify the userspace about
the new link info if NLM_F_ECHO flag is set.

- rtnl_configure_link()
  - __dev_notify_flags()
    - rtmsg_ifinfo()
      - rtmsg_ifinfo_event()
        - rtmsg_ifinfo_build_skb()
        - rtmsg_ifinfo_send()
	  - rtnl_notify()

Also move __dev_notify_flags() declaration to net/core/dev.h, as Jakub
suggested.

<content type='text'>
commit 68822bdf76f1 ("net: generalize skb freeing
deferral to per-cpu lists") added another per-cpu
cache of skbs. It was expected to be small,
and an IPI was forced whenever the list reached 128
skbs.

We might need to be able to control more precisely
queue capacity and added latency.

An IPI is generated whenever queue reaches half capacity.

Default value of the new limit is 64.
