commit ab4eedb790cae44313759b50fe47da285e2519d5 upstream.

This fixes the following trace by reworking the locking of l2cap_conn
so instead of only locking when changing the chan_l list this promotes
chan_lock to a general lock of l2cap_conn so whenever it is being held
it would prevents the likes of l2cap_conn_del to run:

list_del corruption, ffff888021297e00-&gt;prev is LIST_POISON2 (dead000000000122)

<title>netmem: prevent TX of unreadable skbs</title>

<id>urn:sha1:454825019d2f0c59e5174ece9e713f45ad80beff</id>
<content type='text'>
commit f3600c867c99a2cc8038680ecf211089c50e7971 upstream.

Currently on stable trees we have support for netmem/devmem RX but not
TX. It is not safe to forward/redirect an RX unreadable netmem packet
into the device's TX path, as the device may call dma-mapping APIs on
dma addrs that should not be passed to it.

Fix this by preventing the xmit of unreadable skbs.

Tested by configuring tc redirect:

sudo tc qdisc add dev eth1 ingress
sudo tc filter add dev eth1 ingress protocol ip prio 1 flower ip_proto \
	tcp src_ip 192.168.1.12 action mirred egress redirect dev eth1

Before, I see unreadable skbs in the driver's TX path passed to dma
mapping APIs.

After, I don't see unreadable skbs in the driver's TX path passed to dma
mapping APIs.

Fixes: 65249feb6b3d ("net: add support for skbs with unreadable frags")

<title>net: Handle napi_schedule() calls from non-interrupt</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.stealer.net/cgit.cgi/user/sven/linux.git/commit/?id=d1ceef54b23967a0face90d9d58931a5b9dc1f88'/>
<id>urn:sha1:d1ceef54b23967a0face90d9d58931a5b9dc1f88</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 77e45145e3039a0fb212556ab3f8c87f54771757 ]

napi_schedule() is expected to be called either:

* From an interrupt, where raised softirqs are handled on IRQ exit

* From a softirq disabled section, where raised softirqs are handled on
  the next call to local_bh_enable().

* From a softirq handler, where raised softirqs are handled on the next
  round in do_softirq(), or further deferred to a dedicated kthread.

Other bare tasks context may end up ignoring the raised NET_RX vector
until the next random softirq handling opportunity, which may not
happen before a while if the CPU goes idle afterwards with the tick
stopped.

Such "misuses" have been detected on several places thanks to messages
of the kind:

	"NOHZ tick-stop error: local softirq work is pending, handler #08!!!"

For example:

       __raise_softirq_irqoff
        __napi_schedule
        rtl8152_runtime_resume.isra.0
        rtl8152_resume
        usb_resume_interface.isra.0
        usb_resume_both
        __rpm_callback
        rpm_callback
        rpm_resume
        __pm_runtime_resume
        usb_autoresume_device
        usb_remote_wakeup
        hub_event
        process_one_work
        worker_thread
        kthread
        ret_from_fork
        ret_from_fork_asm

And also:

* drivers/net/usb/r8152.c::rtl_work_func_t
* drivers/net/netdevsim/netdev.c::nsim_start_xmit

There is a long history of issues of this kind:

	019edd01d174 ("ath10k: sdio: Add missing BH locking around napi_schdule()")
	330068589389 ("idpf: disable local BH when scheduling napi for marker packets")
	e3d5d70cb483 ("net: lan78xx: fix "softirq work is pending" error")
	e55c27ed9ccf ("mt76: mt7615: add missing bh-disable around rx napi schedule")
	c0182aa98570 ("mt76: mt7915: add missing bh-disable around tx napi enable/schedule")
	970be1dff26d ("mt76: disable BH around napi_schedule() calls")
	019edd01d174 ("ath10k: sdio: Add missing BH locking around napi_schdule()")
	30bfec4fec59 ("can: rx-offload: can_rx_offload_threaded_irq_finish(): add new  function to be called from threaded interrupt")
	e63052a5dd3c ("mlx5e: add add missing BH locking around napi_schdule()")
	83a0c6e58901 ("i40e: Invoke softirqs after napi_reschedule")
	bd4ce941c8d5 ("mlx4: Invoke softirqs after napi_reschedule")
	8cf699ec849f ("mlx4: do not call napi_schedule() without care")
	ec13ee80145c ("virtio_net: invoke softirqs after __napi_schedule")

This shows that relying on the caller to arrange a proper context for
the softirqs to be handled while calling napi_schedule() is very fragile
and error prone. Also fixing them can also prove challenging if the
caller may be called from different kinds of contexts.

Therefore fix this from napi_schedule() itself with waking up ksoftirqd
when softirqs are raised from task contexts.

[ Upstream commit db75a16813aabae3b78c06b1b99f5e314c1f55d3 ]

Recently, some fallback have been initiated, while the connection was
not supposed to fallback.

Add a safety check with a warning to detect when an wrong attempt to
fallback is being done. This should help detecting any future issues
quicker.

<id>urn:sha1:94e7476fa7c5412c67a7cb5feb8b8180f69f09f7</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 606572eb22c1786a3957d24307f5760bb058ca19 ]

According to the C11 standard (ISO/IEC 9899:2011, 6.5.7):
"If E1 has a signed type and E1 x 2^E2 is not representable in the result
type, the behavior is undefined."

Shifting 1 &lt;&lt; 31 causes signed integer overflow, which leads to undefined
behavior.

Fix this by explicitly using '1U &lt;&lt; 31' to ensure the shift operates on
an unsigned type, avoiding undefined behavior.

[ Upstream commit b4f82f9ed43aefa79bec2504ae8c29be0c0f5d1d ]

After the hci sync command releases l2cap_conn, the hci receive data work
queue references the released l2cap_conn when sending to the upper layer.
Add hci dev lock to the hci receive data work queue to synchronize the two.

[ Upstream commit 1063ae07383c0ddc5bcce170260c143825846b03 ]

Currently, ovs_ct_set_labels() is only called for confirmed conntrack
entries (ct) within ovs_ct_commit(). However, if the conntrack entry
does not have the labels_ext extension, attempting to allocate it in
ovs_ct_get_conn_labels() for a confirmed entry triggers a warning in
nf_ct_ext_add():

  WARN_ON(nf_ct_is_confirmed(ct));

This happens when the conntrack entry is created externally before OVS
increments net-&gt;ct.labels_used. The issue has become more likely since
commit fcb1aa5163b1 ("openvswitch: switch to per-action label counting
in conntrack"), which changed to use per-action label counting and
increment net-&gt;ct.labels_used when a flow with ct action is added.

Since there’s no straightforward way to fully resolve this issue at the
moment, this reverts the commit to avoid breaking existing use cases.

<title>net: openvswitch: remove misbehaving actions length check</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit a1e64addf3ff9257b45b78bc7d743781c3f41340 ]

The actions length check is unreliable and produces different results
depending on the initial length of the provided netlink attribute and
the composition of the actual actions inside of it.  For example, a
user can add 4088 empty clone() actions without triggering -EMSGSIZE,
on attempt to add 4089 such actions the operation will fail with the
-EMSGSIZE verdict.  However, if another 16 KB of other actions will
be *appended* to the previous 4089 clone() actions, the check passes
and the flow is successfully installed into the openvswitch datapath.

The reason for a such a weird behavior is the way memory is allocated.
When ovs_flow_cmd_new() is invoked, it calls ovs_nla_copy_actions(),
that in turn calls nla_alloc_flow_actions() with either the actual
length of the user-provided actions or the MAX_ACTIONS_BUFSIZE.  The
function adds the size of the sw_flow_actions structure and then the
actually allocated memory is rounded up to the closest power of two.

So, if the user-provided actions are larger than MAX_ACTIONS_BUFSIZE,
then MAX_ACTIONS_BUFSIZE + sizeof(*sfa) rounded up is 32K + 24 -&gt; 64K.
Later, while copying individual actions, we look at ksize(), which is
64K, so this way the MAX_ACTIONS_BUFSIZE check is not actually
triggered and the user can easily allocate almost 64 KB of actions.

However, when the initial size is less than MAX_ACTIONS_BUFSIZE, but
the actions contain ones that require size increase while copying
(such as clone() or sample()), then the limit check will be performed
during the reserve_sfa_size() and the user will not be allowed to
create actions that yield more than 32 KB internally.

This is one part of the problem.  The other part is that it's not
actually possible for the userspace application to know beforehand
if the particular set of actions will be rejected or not.

Certain actions require more space in the internal representation,
e.g. an empty clone() takes 4 bytes in the action list passed in by
the user, but it takes 12 bytes in the internal representation due
to an extra nested attribute, and some actions require less space in
the internal representations, e.g. set(tunnel(..)) normally takes
64+ bytes in the action list provided by the user, but only needs to
store a single pointer in the internal implementation, since all the
data is stored in the tunnel_info structure instead.

And the action size limit is applied to the internal representation,
not to the action list passed by the user.  So, it's not possible for
the userpsace application to predict if the certain combination of
actions will be rejected or not, because it is not possible for it to
calculate how much space these actions will take in the internal
representation without knowing kernel internals.

All that is causing random failures in ovs-vswitchd in userspace and
inability to handle certain traffic patterns as a result.  For example,
it is reported that adding a bit more than a 1100 VMs in an OpenStack
setup breaks the network due to OVS not being able to handle ARP
traffic anymore in some cases (it tries to install a proper datapath
flow, but the kernel rejects it with -EMSGSIZE, even though the action
list isn't actually that large.)

Kernel behavior must be consistent and predictable in order for the
userspace application to use it in a reasonable way.  ovs-vswitchd has
a mechanism to re-direct parts of the traffic and partially handle it
in userspace if the required action list is oversized, but that doesn't
work properly if we can't actually tell if the action list is oversized
or not.

Solution for this is to check the size of the user-provided actions
instead of the internal representation.  This commit just removes the
check from the internal part because there is already an implicit size
check imposed by the netlink protocol.  The attribute can't be larger
than 64 KB.  Realistically, we could reduce the limit to 32 KB, but
we'll be risking to break some existing setups that rely on the fact
that it's possible to create nearly 64 KB action lists today.

Vast majority of flows in real setups are below 100-ish bytes.  So
removal of the limit will not change real memory consumption on the
system.  The absolutely worst case scenario is if someone adds a flow
with 64 KB of empty clone() actions.  That will yield a 192 KB in the
internal representation consuming 256 KB block of memory.  However,
that list of actions is not meaningful and also a no-op.  Real world
very large action lists (that can occur for a rare cases of BUM
traffic handling) are unlikely to contain a large number of clones and
will likely have a lot of tunnel attributes making the internal
representation comparable in size to the original action list.
So, it should be fine to just remove the limit.

Commit in the 'Fixes' tag is the first one that introduced the
difference between internal representation and the user-provided action
lists, but there were many more afterwards that lead to the situation
we have today.

<title>gre: Fix IPv6 link-local address generation.</title>

[ Upstream commit 183185a18ff96751db52a46ccf93fff3a1f42815 ]

Use addrconf_addr_gen() to generate IPv6 link-local addresses on GRE
devices in most cases and fall back to using add_v4_addrs() only in
case the GRE configuration is incompatible with addrconf_addr_gen().

GRE used to use addrconf_addr_gen() until commit e5dd729460ca
("ip/ip6_gre: use the same logic as SIT interfaces when computing v6LL
address") restricted this use to gretap and ip6gretap devices, and
created add_v4_addrs() (borrowed from SIT) for non-Ethernet GRE ones.

The original problem came when commit 9af28511be10 ("addrconf: refuse
isatap eui64 for INADDR_ANY") made __ipv6_isatap_ifid() fail when its
addr parameter was 0. The commit says that this would create an invalid
address, however, I couldn't find any RFC saying that the generated
interface identifier would be wrong. Anyway, since gre over IPv4
devices pass their local tunnel address to __ipv6_isatap_ifid(), that
commit broke their IPv6 link-local address generation when the local
address was unspecified.

Then commit e5dd729460ca ("ip/ip6_gre: use the same logic as SIT
interfaces when computing v6LL address") tried to fix that case by
defining add_v4_addrs() and calling it to generate the IPv6 link-local
address instead of using addrconf_addr_gen() (apart for gretap and
ip6gretap devices, which would still use the regular
addrconf_addr_gen(), since they have a MAC address).

That broke several use cases because add_v4_addrs() isn't properly
integrated into the rest of IPv6 Neighbor Discovery code. Several of
these shortcomings have been fixed over time, but add_v4_addrs()
remains broken on several aspects. In particular, it doesn't send any
Router Sollicitations, so the SLAAC process doesn't start until the
interface receives a Router Advertisement. Also, add_v4_addrs() mostly
ignores the address generation mode of the interface
(/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/*/addr_gen_mode), thus breaking the
IN6_ADDR_GEN_MODE_RANDOM and IN6_ADDR_GEN_MODE_STABLE_PRIVACY cases.

Fix the situation by using add_v4_addrs() only in the specific scenario
where the normal method would fail. That is, for interfaces that have
all of the following characteristics:

  * run over IPv4,
  * transport IP packets directly, not Ethernet (that is, not gretap
    interfaces),
  * tunnel endpoint is INADDR_ANY (that is, 0),
  * device address generation mode is EUI64.

In all other cases, revert back to the regular addrconf_addr_gen().

Also, remove the special case for ip6gre interfaces in add_v4_addrs(),
since ip6gre devices now always use addrconf_addr_gen() instead.

[ Upstream commit 6edd78af9506bb182518da7f6feebd75655d9a0e ]

There is an incorrect calculation in the offset variable which causes
the nft_skb_copy_to_reg() function to always return -EFAULT. Adding the
start variable is redundant. In the __ip_options_compile() function the
correct offset is specified when finding the function. There is no need
to add the size of the iphdr structure to the offset.
