[ Upstream commit c15d5c62ab313c19121f10e25d4fec852bd1c40c ]

When a netdev issues a RX async resync request for a TLS connection,
the TLS module handles it by logging record headers and attempting to
match them to the tcp_sn provided by the device. If a match is found,
the TLS module approves the tcp_sn for resynchronization.

While waiting for a device response, the TLS module also increments
rcd_delta each time a new TLS record is received, tracking the distance
from the original resync request.

However, if the device response is delayed or fails (e.g due to
unstable connection and device getting out of tracking, hardware
errors, resource exhaustion etc.), the TLS module keeps logging and
incrementing, which can lead to a WARN() when rcd_delta exceeds the
threshold.

To address this, introduce tls_offload_rx_resync_async_request_cancel()
to explicitly cancel resync requests when a device response failure is
detected. Call this helper also as a final safeguard when rcd_delta
crosses its threshold, as reaching this point implies that earlier
cancellation did not occur.

<content type='text'>
commit da353fac65fede6b8b4cfe207f0d9408e3121105 upstream.

sk-&gt;sk_err appears to expect a positive value, a convention that ktls
doesn't always follow and that leads to memory corruption in other code.
For instance,

    [kworker]
    tls_encrypt_done(..., err=&lt;negative error from crypto request&gt;)
      tls_err_abort(.., err)
        sk-&gt;sk_err = err;

    [task]
    splice_from_pipe_feed
      ...
        tls_sw_do_sendpage
          if (sk-&gt;sk_err) {
            ret = -sk-&gt;sk_err;  // ret is positive

    splice_from_pipe_feed (continued)
      ret = actor(...)  // ret is still positive and interpreted as bytes
                        // written, resulting in underflow of buf-&gt;len and
                        // sd-&gt;len, leading to huge buf-&gt;offset and bogus
                        // addresses computed in later calls to actor()

Fix all tls_err_abort() callers to pass a negative error code
consistently and centralize the error-prone sign flip there, throwing in
a warning to catch future misuse and uninlining the function so it
really does only warn once.

<title>net/tls: Fix use-after-free after the TLS device goes down and up</title>

[ Upstream commit c55dcdd435aa6c6ad6ccac0a4c636d010ee367a4 ]

When a netdev with active TLS offload goes down, tls_device_down is
called to stop the offload and tear down the TLS context. However, the
socket stays alive, and it still points to the TLS context, which is now
deallocated. If a netdev goes up, while the connection is still active,
and the data flow resumes after a number of TCP retransmissions, it will
lead to a use-after-free of the TLS context.

This commit addresses this bug by keeping the context alive until its
normal destruction, and implements the necessary fallbacks, so that the
connection can resume in software (non-offloaded) kTLS mode.

On the TX side tls_sw_fallback is used to encrypt all packets. The RX
side already has all the necessary fallbacks, because receiving
non-decrypted packets is supported. The thing needed on the RX side is
to block resync requests, which are normally produced after receiving
non-decrypted packets.

The necessary synchronization is implemented for a graceful teardown:
first the fallbacks are deployed, then the driver resources are released
(it used to be possible to have a tls_dev_resync after tls_dev_del).

A new flag called TLS_RX_DEV_DEGRADED is added to indicate the fallback
mode. It's used to skip the RX resync logic completely, as it becomes
useless, and some objects may be released (for example, resync_async,
which is allocated and freed by the driver).

RCU synchronization is guaranteed to finish in finite time, unlike a
busy loop that polls a flag. This patch is a preparation for the bugfix
in the next patch, where the same synchronize_net() call will also be
used to sync with the TX datapath.

<title>net/tls: Protect from calling tls_dev_del for TLS RX twice</title>

<id>urn:sha1:025cc2fb6a4e84e9a0552c0017dcd1c24b7ac7da</id>
<content type='text'>
tls_device_offload_cleanup_rx doesn't clear tls_ctx-&gt;netdev after
calling tls_dev_del if TLX TX offload is also enabled. Clearing
tls_ctx-&gt;netdev gets postponed until tls_device_gc_task. It leaves a
time frame when tls_device_down may get called and call tls_dev_del for
RX one extra time, confusing the driver, which may lead to a crash.

This patch corrects this racy behavior by adding a flag to prevent
tls_device_down from calling tls_dev_del the second time.

In async_resync mode, we log the TCP seq of records until the async request
is completed.  Later, in case one of the logged seqs matches the resync
request, we return it, together with its record serial number.  Before this
fix, we mistakenly returned the serial number of the current record
instead.

Left shifting the u16 value promotes it to a int and then it
gets sign extended to a u64.  If len &lt;&lt; 16 is greater than 0x7fffffff
then the upper bits get set to 1 because of the implicit sign extension.
Fix this by casting len to u64 before shifting it.
