[ Upstream commit d3ba32162488283c0a4c5bedd8817aec91748802 ]

Make the addrs_lock be per port, not per ipvlan dev.

Initial code seems to be written in the assumption,
that any address change must occur under RTNL.
But it is not so for the case of IPv6. So

1) Introduce per-port addrs_lock.

2) It was needed to fix places where it was forgotten
to take lock (ipvlan_open/ipvlan_close)

This appears to be a very minor problem though.
Since it's highly unlikely that ipvlan_add_addr() will
be called on 2 CPU simultaneously. But nevertheless,
this could cause:

1) False-negative of ipvlan_addr_busy(): one interface
iterated through all port-&gt;ipvlans + ipvlan-&gt;addrs
under some ipvlan spinlock, and another added IP
under its own lock. Though this is only possible
for IPv6, since looks like only ipvlan_addr6_event() can be
called without rtnl_lock.

2) Race since ipvlan_ht_addr_add(port) is called under
different ipvlan-&gt;addrs_lock locks

This should not affect performance, since add/remove IP
is a rare situation and spinlock is not taken on fast
paths.

Both ipvlan_process_v4_outbound() and ipvlan_process_v6_outbound()
increment dev-&gt;stats.tx_errors in case of errors.

Unfortunately there are two issues :

1) ipvlan_get_stats64() does not propagate dev-&gt;stats.tx_errors to user.

2) Increments are not atomic. KCSAN would complain eventually.

Use DEV_STATS_INC() to not miss an update, and change ipvlan_get_stats64()
to copy the value back to user.

<title>ipvlan: Fix a reference count leak warning in ipvlan_ns_exit()</title>

[ Upstream commit 043d5f68d0ccdda91029b4b6dce7eeffdcfad281 ]

There are two network devices(veth1 and veth3) in ns1, and ipvlan1 with
L3S mode and ipvlan2 with L2 mode are created based on them as
figure (1). In this case, ipvlan_register_nf_hook() will be called to
register nf hook which is needed by ipvlans in L3S mode in ns1 and value
of ipvl_nf_hook_refcnt is set to 1.

(1)
           ns1                           ns2
      ------------                  ------------

   veth1--ipvlan1 (L3S)

   veth3--ipvlan2 (L2)

(2)
           ns1                           ns2
      ------------                  ------------

   veth1--ipvlan1 (L3S)

         ipvlan2 (L2)                  veth3
     |                                  |
     |-------&gt;--------&gt;---------&gt;--------
                    migrate

When veth3 migrates from ns1 to ns2 as figure (2), veth3 will register in
ns2 and calls call_netdevice_notifiers with NETDEV_REGISTER event:

dev_change_net_namespace
    call_netdevice_notifiers
        ipvlan_device_event
            ipvlan_migrate_l3s_hook
                ipvlan_register_nf_hook(newnet)      (I)
                ipvlan_unregister_nf_hook(oldnet)    (II)

In function ipvlan_migrate_l3s_hook(), ipvl_nf_hook_refcnt in ns1 is not 0
since veth1 with ipvlan1 still in ns1, (I) and (II) will be called to
register nf_hook in ns2 and unregister nf_hook in ns1. As a result,
ipvl_nf_hook_refcnt in ns1 is decreased incorrectly and this in ns2
is increased incorrectly. When the second net namespace is removed, a
reference count leak warning in ipvlan_ns_exit() will be triggered.

This patch add a check before ipvlan_migrate_l3s_hook() is called. The
warning can be triggered as follows:

$ ip netns add ns1
$ ip netns add ns2
$ ip netns exec ns1 ip link add veth1 type veth peer name veth2
$ ip netns exec ns1 ip link add veth3 type veth peer name veth4
$ ip netns exec ns1 ip link add ipv1 link veth1 type ipvlan mode l3s
$ ip netns exec ns1 ip link add ipv2 link veth3 type ipvlan mode l2
$ ip netns exec ns1 ip link set veth3 netns ns2
$ ip net del ns2

commit ab92d68fc22f9afab480153bd82a20f6e2533769
"net: core: add generic lockdep keys"

but keeps the addr_list_lock_key because we still lock
addr_list_lock nestedly on stack devices, unlikely xmit_lock
this is safe because we don't take addr_list_lock on any fast
path.

<title>ipvlan: do not add hardware address of master to its unicast filter list</title>

<id>urn:sha1:63aae7b17344d4b08a7d05cb07044de4c0f9dcc6</id>
<content type='text'>
There is a problem when ipvlan slaves are created on a master device that
is a vmxnet3 device (ipvlan in VMware guests). The vmxnet3 driver does not
support unicast address filtering. When an ipvlan device is brought up in
ipvlan_open(), the ipvlan driver calls dev_uc_add() to add the hardware
address of the vmxnet3 master device to the unicast address list of the
master device, phy_dev-&gt;uc. This inevitably leads to the vmxnet3 master
device being forced into promiscuous mode by __dev_set_rx_mode().

Promiscuous mode is switched on the master despite the fact that there is
still only one hardware address that the master device should use for
filtering in order for the ipvlan device to be able to receive packets.
The comment above struct net_device describes the uc_promisc member as a
"counter, that indicates, that promiscuous mode has been enabled due to
the need to listen to additional unicast addresses in a device that does
not implement ndo_set_rx_mode()". Moreover, the design of ipvlan
guarantees that only the hardware address of a master device,
phy_dev-&gt;dev_addr, will be used to transmit and receive all packets from
its ipvlan slaves. Thus, the unicast address list of the master device
should not be modified by ipvlan_open() and ipvlan_stop() in order to make
ipvlan a workable option on masters that do not support unicast address
filtering.

<content type='text'>
Some interface types could be nested.
(VLAN, BONDING, TEAM, MACSEC, MACVLAN, IPVLAN, VIRT_WIFI, VXLAN, etc..)
These interface types should set lockdep class because, without lockdep
class key, lockdep always warn about unexisting circular locking.

In the current code, these interfaces have their own lockdep class keys and
these manage itself. So that there are so many duplicate code around the
/driver/net and /net/.
This patch adds new generic lockdep keys and some helper functions for it.

This patch does below changes.
a) Add lockdep class keys in struct net_device
   - qdisc_running, xmit, addr_list, qdisc_busylock
   - these keys are used as dynamic lockdep key.
b) When net_device is being allocated, lockdep keys are registered.
   - alloc_netdev_mqs()
c) When net_device is being free'd llockdep keys are unregistered.
   - free_netdev()
d) Add generic lockdep key helper function
   - netdev_register_lockdep_key()
   - netdev_unregister_lockdep_key()
   - netdev_update_lockdep_key()
e) Remove unnecessary generic lockdep macro and functions
f) Remove unnecessary lockdep code of each interfaces.

After this patch, each interface modules don't need to maintain
their lockdep keys.
