[ Upstream commit cb88cb53badb8aeb3955ad6ce80b07b598e310b8 ]

syzbot triggered a warning [1] in __alloc_pages():

WARN_ON_ONCE_GFP(order &gt; MAX_PAGE_ORDER, gfp)

Willem fixed a similar issue in commit c0a2a1b0d631 ("ppp: limit MRU to 64K")

Adopt the same sanity check for ppp_async_ioctl(PPPIOCSMRU)

[ Upstream commit c0a2a1b0d631fc460d830f52d06211838874d655 ]

ppp_sync_ioctl allows setting device MRU, but does not sanity check
this input.

Limit to a sane upper bound of 64KB.

No implementation I could find generates larger than 64KB frames.
RFC 2823 mentions an upper bound of PPP over SDL of 64KB based on the
16-bit length field. Other protocols will be smaller, such as PPPoE
(9KB jumbo frame) and PPPoA (18190 maximum CPCS-SDU size, RFC 2364).
PPTP and L2TP encapsulate in IP.

Syzbot managed to trigger alloc warning in __alloc_pages:

	if (WARN_ON_ONCE_GFP(order &gt; MAX_ORDER, gfp))

Similar code exists in other drivers that implement ppp_channel_ops
ioctl PPPIOCSMRU. Those might also be in scope. Notably excluded from
this are pppol2tp_ioctl and pppoe_ioctl.

This code goes back to the start of git history.

ppp_sync_input() checks the first 2 bytes of the data are PPP_ALLSTATIONS
and PPP_UI. However, if the data length is 1 and the first byte is
PPP_ALLSTATIONS, an access to an uninitialized value occurs when checking
PPP_UI. This patch resolves this issue by checking the data length.

[ Upstream commit 84bef5b6037c15180ef88ac4216dc621d16df1a6 ]

PPTP uses pppox sockets (struct pppox_sock). These sockets don't embed
an inet_sock structure, so it's invalid to call inet_sk() on them.

Therefore, the ip_route_output_ports() call in pptp_connect() has two
problems:

  * The tos variable is set with RT_CONN_FLAGS(sk), which calls
    inet_sk() on the pppox socket.

  * ip_route_output_ports() tries to retrieve routing flags using
    inet_sk_flowi_flags(), which is also going to call inet_sk() on the
    pppox socket.

While PPTP doesn't use inet sockets, it's actually really layered on
top of IP and therefore needs a proper way to do fib lookups. So let's
define pptp_route_output() to get a struct rtable from a pptp socket.
Let's also replace the ip_route_output_ports() call of pptp_xmit() for
consistency.

In practice, this means that:

  * pptp_connect() sets -&gt;flowi4_tos and -&gt;flowi4_flags to zero instead
    of using bits of unrelated struct pppox_sock fields.

  * pptp_xmit() now respects -&gt;sk_mark and -&gt;sk_uid.

  * pptp_xmit() now calls the security_sk_classify_flow() security
    hook, thus allowing to set -&gt;flowic_secid.

  * pptp_xmit() now passes the pppox socket to xfrm_lookup_route().

Found by code inspection.

READ/WRITE proved to be actively confusing - the meanings are
"data destination, as used with read(2)" and "data source, as
used with write(2)", but people keep interpreting those as
"we read data from it" and "we write data to it", i.e. exactly
the wrong way.

Call them ITER_DEST and ITER_SOURCE - at least that is harder
to misinterpret...

<title>net: fix dev_fill_forward_path with pppoe + bridge</title>

<id>urn:sha1:cf2df74e202d81b09f09d84c2d8903e0e87e9274</id>
<content type='text'>
When calling dev_fill_forward_path on a pppoe device, the provided destination
address is invalid. In order for the bridge fdb lookup to succeed, the pppoe
code needs to update ctx-&gt;daddr to the correct value.
Fix this by storing the address inside struct net_device_path_ctx

<title>net: remove noblock parameter from skb_recv_datagram()</title>

skb_recv_datagram() has two parameters 'flags' and 'noblock' that are
merged inside skb_recv_datagram() by 'flags | (noblock ? MSG_DONTWAIT : 0)'

As 'flags' may contain MSG_DONTWAIT as value most callers split the 'flags'
into 'flags' and 'noblock' with finally obsolete bit operations like this:

skb_recv_datagram(sk, flags &amp; ~MSG_DONTWAIT, flags &amp; MSG_DONTWAIT, &amp;rc);

And this is not even done consistently with the 'flags' parameter.

This patch removes the obsolete and costly splitting into two parameters
and only performs bit operations when really needed on the caller side.

One missing conversion thankfully reported by kernel test robot. I missed
to enable kunit tests to build the mctp code.
