[ Upstream commit 1d997f1013079c05b642c739901e3584a3ae558d ]

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.

commit 0bef512012b1cd8820f0c9ec80e5f8ceb43fdd59 upstream.

Based on a syzbot report, it appears many virtual
drivers do not yet use netdev_lockdep_set_classes(),
triggerring lockdep false positives.

<title>veth: Use tstats per-CPU traffic counters</title>

<id>urn:sha1:7ca7b6649bf0702fe1c8591e5ea64e51febbdd3c</id>

[ Upstream commit 6f2684bf2b4460c84d0d34612a939f78b96b03fc ]

Currently veth devices use the lstats per-CPU traffic counters, which only
cover TX traffic. veth_get_stats64() actually populates RX stats of a veth
device from its peer's TX counters, based on the assumption that a veth
device can _only_ receive packets from its peer, which is no longer true:

For example, recent CNIs (like Cilium) can use the bpf_redirect_peer() BPF
helper to redirect traffic from NIC's tc ingress to veth's tc ingress (in
a different netns), skipping veth's peer device. Unfortunately, this kind
of traffic isn't currently accounted for in veth's RX stats.

In preparation for the fix, use tstats (instead of lstats) to maintain
both RX and TX counters for each veth device. We'll use RX counters for
bpf_redirect_peer() traffic, and keep using TX counters for the usual
"peer-to-peer" traffic. In veth_get_stats64(), calculate RX stats by
_adding_ RX count to peer's TX count, in order to cover both kinds of
traffic.

veth_stats_rx() might need a name change (perhaps to "veth_stats_xdp()")
for less confusion, but let's leave it to another patch to keep the fix
minimal.

[ Upstream commit 34d21de99cea9cb17967874313e5b0262527833c ]

Move {l,t,d}stats allocation to the core and let netdevs pick the stats
type they need. That way the driver doesn't have to bother with error
handling (allocation failure checking, making sure free happens in the
right spot, etc) - all happening in the core.

[ Upstream commit d7db7775ea2e31502d46427f5efd385afc4ff1eb ]

Commit d3256efd8e8b ("veth: allow enabling NAPI even without XDP") tried to fix
the fact that GRO was not possible without XDP, because veth did not use NAPI
without XDP. However, it also introduced the behaviour that GRO is always
enabled, when XDP is enabled.

While it might be desired for most cases, it is confusing for the user at best
as the GRO flag suddenly changes, when an XDP program is attached. It also
introduces some complexities in state management as was partially addressed in
commit fe9f801355f0 ("net: veth: clear GRO when clearing XDP even when down").

But the biggest problem is that it is not possible to disable GRO at all, when
an XDP program is attached, which might be needed for some use cases.

Fix this by not touching the GRO flag on XDP enable/disable as the code already
supports switching to NAPI if either GRO or XDP is requested.

[ Upstream commit 1ce7d306ea63f3e379557c79abd88052e0483813 ]

struct veth_rq is pretty large, 832B total without debug
options enabled. Since commit under Fixes we try to pre-allocate
enough queues for every possible CPU. Miao Wang reports that
this may lead to order-5 allocations which will fail in production.

Let the allocation fallback to vmalloc() and try harder.
These are the same flags we pass to netdev queue allocation.

[ Upstream commit fe9f801355f0b47668419f30f1fac1cf4539e736 ]

veth sets NETIF_F_GRO automatically when XDP is enabled,
because both features use the same NAPI machinery.

The logic to clear NETIF_F_GRO sits in veth_disable_xdp() which
is called both on ndo_stop and when XDP is turned off.
To avoid the flag from being cleared when the device is brought
down, the clearing is skipped when IFF_UP is not set.
Bringing the device down should indeed not modify its features.

Unfortunately, this means that clearing is also skipped when
XDP is disabled _while_ the device is down. And there's nothing
on the open path to bring the device features back into sync.
IOW if user enables XDP, disables it and then brings the device
up we'll end up with a stray GRO flag set but no NAPI instances.

We don't depend on the GRO flag on the datapath, so the datapath
won't crash. We will crash (or hang), however, next time features
are sync'ed (either by user via ethtool or peer changing its config).
The GRO flag will go away, and veth will try to disable the NAPIs.
But the open path never created them since XDP was off, the GRO flag
was a stray. If NAPI was initialized before we'll hang in napi_disable().
If it never was we'll crash trying to stop uninitialized hrtimer.

Move the GRO flag updates to the XDP enable / disable paths,
instead of mixing them with the ndo_open / ndo_close paths.

The veth_xmit function returns NETDEV_TX_OK even when packets are dropped.
This behavior leads to incorrect calculations of statistics counts, as
well as things like txq-&gt;trans_start updates.

[ Upstream commit f534f6581ec084fe94d6759f7672bd009794b07e ]

veth and vxcan need to make sure the ifindexes of the peer
are not negative, core does not validate this.

Using iproute2 with user-space-level checking removed:

Before:

  # ./ip link add index 10 type veth peer index -1
  # ip link show
  1: lo: &lt;LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP&gt; mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
  2: enp1s0: &lt;BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP&gt; mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 52:54:00:74:b2:03 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
  10: veth1@veth0: &lt;BROADCAST,MULTICAST,M-DOWN&gt; mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 8a:90:ff:57:6d:5d brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
  -1: veth0@veth1: &lt;BROADCAST,MULTICAST,M-DOWN&gt; mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether ae:ed:18:e6:fa:7f brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

Now:

  $ ./ip link add index 10 type veth peer index -1
  Error: ifindex can't be negative.

This problem surfaced in net-next because an explicit WARN()
was added, the root cause is older.

Fixes: a8f820a380a2 ("can: add Virtual CAN Tunnel driver (vxcan)")

[ Upstream commit 7c10131803e45269ddc6c817f19ed649110f3cae ]

Commit 718a18a0c8a6 ("veth: Rework veth_xdp_rcv_skb in order
to accept non-linear skb") introduced a bug where it tried to
use pskb_expand_head() if the headroom was less than
XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM.  This however uses kmalloc to expand the head,
which will later allow consume_skb() to free the skb while is it still
in use by AF_XDP.

Previously if the headroom was less than XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM we
continued on to allocate a new skb from pages so this restores that
behavior.
