Revert "xfrm: destroy xfrm_state synchronously on net exit path"

2026-01-19T12:09:18+00:00

[ Upstream commit 2a198bbec6913ae1c90ec963750003c6213668c7 ] This reverts commit f75a2804da391571563c4b6b29e7797787332673. With all states (whether user or kern) removed from the hashtables during deletion, there's no need for synchronous destruction of states. xfrm6_tunnel states still need to have been destroyed (which will be the case when its last user is deleted (not destroyed)) so that xfrm6_tunnel_free_spi removes it from the per-netns hashtable before the netns is destroyed. This has the benefit of skipping one synchronize_rcu per state (in __xfrm_state_destroy(sync=true)) when we exit a netns.

xfrm: delete x->tunnel as we delete x

2026-01-19T12:09:18+00:00

[ Upstream commit b441cf3f8c4b8576639d20c8eb4aa32917602ecd ] The ipcomp fallback tunnels currently get deleted (from the various lists and hashtables) as the last user state that needed that fallback is destroyed (not deleted). If a reference to that user state still exists, the fallback state will remain on the hashtables/lists, triggering the WARN in xfrm_state_fini. Because of those remaining references, the fix in commit f75a2804da39 ("xfrm: destroy xfrm_state synchronously on net exit path") is not complete. We recently fixed one such situation in TCP due to defered freeing of skbs (commit 9b6412e6979f ("tcp: drop secpath at the same time as we currently drop dst")). This can also happen due to IP reassembly: skbs with a secpath remain on the reassembly queue until netns destruction. If we can't guarantee that the queues are flushed by the time xfrm_state_fini runs, there may still be references to a (user) xfrm_state, preventing the timely deletion of the corresponding fallback state. Instead of chasing each instance of skbs holding a secpath one by one, this patch fixes the issue directly within xfrm, by deleting the fallback state as soon as the last user state depending on it has been deleted. Destruction will still happen when the final reference is dropped. A separate lockdep class for the fallback state is required since we're going to lock x->tunnel while x is locked.

xfrm: store and rely on direction to construct offload flags

xfrm: respect ip protocols rules criteria when performing dst lookups

xfrm: Preserve vlan tags for transport mode software GRO

2024-05-17T09:50:57+00:00

[ Upstream commit 58fbfecab965014b6e3cc956a76b4a96265a1add ] The software GRO path for esp transport mode uses skb_mac_header_rebuild prior to re-injecting the packet via the xfrm_napi_dev. This only copies skb->mac_len bytes of header which may not be sufficient if the packet contains 802.1Q tags or other VLAN tags. Worse copying only the initial header will leave a packet marked as being VLAN tagged but without the corresponding tag leading to mangling when it is later untagged. The VLAN tags are important when receiving the decrypted esp transport mode packet after GRO processing to ensure it is received on the correct interface. Therefore record the full mac header length in xfrm*_transport_input for later use in corresponding xfrm*_transport_finish to copy the entire mac header when rebuilding the mac header for GRO. The skb->data pointer is left pointing skb->mac_header bytes after the start of the mac header as is expected by the network stack and network and transport header offsets reset to this location.

xfrm: Treat already-verified secpath entries as optional

2023-06-28T08:29:45+00:00

[ Upstream commit 1f8b6df6a997a430b0c48b504638154b520781ad ] This change allows inbound traffic through nested IPsec tunnels to successfully match policies and templates, while retaining the secpath stack trace as necessary for netfilter policies. Specifically, this patch marks secpath entries that have already matched against a relevant policy as having been verified, allowing it to be treated as optional and skipped after a tunnel decapsulation (during which the src/dst/proto/etc may have changed, and the correct policy chain no long be resolvable). This approach is taken as opposed to the iteration in b0355dbbf13c, where the secpath was cleared, since that breaks subsequent validations that rely on the existence of the secpath entries (netfilter policies, or transport-in-tunnel mode, where policies remain resolvable).

net: Find dst with sk's xfrm policy not ctl_sk

2022-09-23T12:15:51+00:00

commit e22aa14866684f77b4f6b6cae98539e520ddb731 upstream. If we set XFRM security policy by calling setsockopt with option IPV6_XFRM_POLICY, the policy will be stored in 'sock_policy' in 'sock' struct. However tcp_v6_send_response doesn't look up dst_entry with the actual socket but looks up with tcp control socket. This may cause a problem that a RST packet is sent without ESP encryption & peer's TCP socket can't receive it. This patch will make the function look up dest_entry with actual socket, if the socket has XFRM policy(sock_policy), so that the TCP response packet via this function can be encrypted, & aligned on the encrypted TCP socket. Tested: We encountered this problem when a TCP socket which is encrypted in ESP transport mode encryption, receives challenge ACK at SYN_SENT state. After receiving challenge ACK, TCP needs to send RST to establish the socket at next SYN try. But the RST was not encrypted & peer TCP socket still remains on ESTABLISHED state. So we verified this with test step as below. [Test step] 1. Making a TCP state mismatch between client(IDLE) & server(ESTABLISHED). 2. Client tries a new connection on the same TCP ports(src & dst). 3. Server will return challenge ACK instead of SYN,ACK. 4. Client will send RST to server to clear the SOCKET. 5. Client will retransmit SYN to server on the same TCP ports. [Expected result] The TCP connection should be established.

xfrm: fix "disable_policy" flag use when arriving from different devices

2022-05-25T07:57:30+00:00

[ Upstream commit e6175a2ed1f18bf2f649625bf725e07adcfa6a28 ] In IPv4 setting the "disable_policy" flag on a device means no policy should be enforced for traffic originating from the device. This was implemented by seting the DST_NOPOLICY flag in the dst based on the originating device. However, dsts are cached in nexthops regardless of the originating devices, in which case, the DST_NOPOLICY flag value may be incorrect. Consider the following setup: +------------------------------+ | ROUTER | +-------------+ | +-----------------+ | | ipsec src |----|-|ipsec0 | | +-------------+ | |disable_policy=0 | +----+ | | +-----------------+ |eth1|-|----- +-------------+ | +-----------------+ +----+ | | noipsec src |----|-|eth0 | | +-------------+ | |disable_policy=1 | | | +-----------------+ | +------------------------------+ Where ROUTER has a default route towards eth1. dst entries for traffic arriving from eth0 would have DST_NOPOLICY and would be cached and therefore can be reused by traffic originating from ipsec0, skipping policy check. Fix by setting a IPSKB_NOPOLICY flag in IPCB and observing it instead of the DST in IN/FWD IPv4 policy checks.
