commit 5891cd5ec46c2c2eb6427cb54d214b149635dd0e upstream.

syzbot found a data-race [1] which lead me to add __rcu
annotations to netdev-&gt;qdisc, and proper accessors
to get LOCKDEP support.

commit 47934e06b65637c88a762d9c98329ae6e3238888 upstream.

In one net namespace, after creating a packet socket without binding
it to a device, users in other net namespaces can observe the new
`packet_type` added by this packet socket by reading `/proc/net/ptype`
file. This is minor information leakage as packet socket is
namespace aware.

Add a net pointer in `packet_type` to keep the net namespace of
of corresponding packet socket. In `ptype_seq_show`, this net pointer
must be checked when it is not NULL.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says:

====================
Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS for net-next:

1) Add new run_estimation toggle to IPVS to stop the estimation_timer
   logic, from Dust Li.

2) Relax superfluous dynset check on NFT_SET_TIMEOUT.

3) Add egress hook, from Lukas Wunner.

4) Nowadays, almost all hook functions in x_table land just call the hook
   evaluation loop. Remove remaining hook wrappers from iptables and IPVS.
   From Florian Westphal.

<title>net: sched: Remove Qdisc::running sequence counter</title>
<updated>2021-10-18T11:54:41+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.radix-linux.su/kernel/linux.git/commit/?id=29cbcd85828372333aa87542c51f2b2b0fd4380c'/>
<id>urn:sha1:29cbcd85828372333aa87542c51f2b2b0fd4380c</id>
<content type='text'>
The Qdisc::running sequence counter has two uses:

  1. Reliably reading qdisc's tc statistics while the qdisc is running
     (a seqcount read/retry loop at gnet_stats_add_basic()).

  2. As a flag, indicating whether the qdisc in question is running
     (without any retry loops).

For the first usage, the Qdisc::running sequence counter write section,
qdisc_run_begin() =&gt; qdisc_run_end(), covers a much wider area than what
is actually needed: the raw qdisc's bstats update. A u64_stats sync
point was thus introduced (in previous commits) inside the bstats
structure itself. A local u64_stats write section is then started and
stopped for the bstats updates.

Use that u64_stats sync point mechanism for the bstats read/retry loop
at gnet_stats_add_basic().

For the second qdisc-&gt;running usage, a __QDISC_STATE_RUNNING bit flag,
accessed with atomic bitops, is sufficient. Using a bit flag instead of
a sequence counter at qdisc_run_begin/end() and qdisc_is_running() leads
to the SMP barriers implicitly added through raw_read_seqcount() and
write_seqcount_begin/end() getting removed. All call sites have been
surveyed though, and no required ordering was identified.

Now that the qdisc-&gt;running sequence counter is no longer used, remove
it.

Note, using u64_stats implies no sequence counter protection for 64-bit
architectures. This can lead to the qdisc tc statistics "packets" vs.
"bytes" values getting out of sync on rare occasions. The individual
values will still be valid.

<title>netfilter: Introduce egress hook</title>

<id>urn:sha1:42df6e1d221dddc0f2acf2be37e68d553ad65f96</id>
<content type='text'>
Support classifying packets with netfilter on egress to satisfy user
requirements such as:
* outbound security policies for containers (Laura)
* filtering and mangling intra-node Direct Server Return (DSR) traffic
  on a load balancer (Laura)
* filtering locally generated traffic coming in through AF_PACKET,
  such as local ARP traffic generated for clustering purposes or DHCP
  (Laura; the AF_PACKET plumbing is contained in a follow-up commit)
* L2 filtering from ingress and egress for AVB (Audio Video Bridging)
  and gPTP with nftables (Pablo)
* in the future: in-kernel NAT64/NAT46 (Pablo)

The egress hook introduced herein complements the ingress hook added by
commit e687ad60af09 ("netfilter: add netfilter ingress hook after
handle_ing() under unique static key").  A patch for nftables to hook up
egress rules from user space has been submitted separately, so users may
immediately take advantage of the feature.

Alternatively or in addition to netfilter, packets can be classified
with traffic control (tc).  On ingress, packets are classified first by
tc, then by netfilter.  On egress, the order is reversed for symmetry.
Conceptually, tc and netfilter can be thought of as layers, with
netfilter layered above tc.

Traffic control is capable of redirecting packets to another interface
(man 8 tc-mirred).  E.g., an ingress packet may be redirected from the
host namespace to a container via a veth connection:
tc ingress (host) -&gt; tc egress (veth host) -&gt; tc ingress (veth container)

In this case, netfilter egress classifying is not performed when leaving
the host namespace!  That's because the packet is still on the tc layer.
If tc redirects the packet to a physical interface in the host namespace
such that it leaves the system, the packet is never subjected to
netfilter egress classifying.  That is only logical since it hasn't
passed through netfilter ingress classifying either.

Packets can alternatively be redirected at the netfilter layer using
nft fwd.  Such a packet *is* subjected to netfilter egress classifying
since it has reached the netfilter layer.

Internally, the skb-&gt;nf_skip_egress flag controls whether netfilter is
invoked on egress by __dev_queue_xmit().  Because __dev_queue_xmit() may
be called recursively by tunnel drivers such as vxlan, the flag is
reverted to false after sch_handle_egress().  This ensures that
netfilter is applied both on the overlay and underlying network.

Interaction between tc and netfilter is possible by setting and querying
skb-&gt;mark.

If netfilter egress classifying is not enabled on any interface, it is
patched out of the data path by way of a static_key and doesn't make a
performance difference that is discernible from noise:

Before:             1537 1538 1538 1537 1538 1537 Mb/sec
After:              1536 1534 1539 1539 1539 1540 Mb/sec
Before + tc accept: 1418 1418 1418 1419 1419 1418 Mb/sec
After  + tc accept: 1419 1424 1418 1419 1422 1420 Mb/sec
Before + tc drop:   1620 1619 1619 1619 1620 1620 Mb/sec
After  + tc drop:   1616 1624 1625 1624 1622 1619 Mb/sec

When netfilter egress classifying is enabled on at least one interface,
a minimal performance penalty is incurred for every egress packet, even
if the interface it's transmitted over doesn't have any netfilter egress
rules configured.  That is caused by checking dev-&gt;nf_hooks_egress
against NULL.

Measurements were performed on a Core i7-3615QM.  Commands to reproduce:
ip link add dev foo type dummy
ip link set dev foo up
modprobe pktgen
echo "add_device foo" &gt; /proc/net/pktgen/kpktgend_3
samples/pktgen/pktgen_bench_xmit_mode_queue_xmit.sh -i foo -n 400000000 -m "11:11:11:11:11:11" -d 1.1.1.1

Accept all traffic with tc:
tc qdisc add dev foo clsact
tc filter add dev foo egress bpf da bytecode '1,6 0 0 0,'

Drop all traffic with tc:
tc qdisc add dev foo clsact
tc filter add dev foo egress bpf da bytecode '1,6 0 0 2,'

Apply this patch when measuring packet drops to avoid errors in dmesg:

The implement of function netdev_all_upper_get_next_dev_rcu has been
removed in:
	commit f1170fd462c6 ("net: Remove all_adj_list and its references")
so delete redundant declaration in header file.

<title>netdevice: demote the type of some dev_addr_set() helpers</title>

__dev_addr_set() and dev_addr_mod() and pretty low level,
let the arguments be void, there's no chance for confusion
in callers converted to use them. Keep u8 in dev_addr_set()
because some of the callers are converted from a loop
and we want to make sure assignments are not from an array
of a different type.

Open code which is dev-&gt;priv_flags &amp; IFF_MACSEC has already defined as
netif_is_macsec(). So use netif_is_macsec() instead of open code.
This patch doesn't change logic.
