[ Upstream commit 7b6ddeaf27eca72795ceeae2f0f347db1b5f9a30 ]

When connected to a QoS/WMM AP, mac80211 should use a QoS NDP
for probing it, instead of a regular non-QoS one, fix this.

Change all the drivers to *not* allow QoS NDP for now, even
though it looks like most of them should be OK with that.

[ Upstream commit 30be8f8dba1bd2aff73e8447d59228471233a3d4 ]

sendfile() calls can hang endless with using Kernel TLS if a socket error occurs.
Socket error codes must be inverted by Kernel TLS before returning because
they are stored with positive sign. If returned non-inverted they are
interpreted as number of bytes sent, causing endless looping of the
splice mechanic behind sendfile().

<title>net: tcp: close sock if net namespace is exiting</title>

[ Upstream commit 4ee806d51176ba7b8ff1efd81f271d7252e03a1d ]

When a tcp socket is closed, if it detects that its net namespace is
exiting, close immediately and do not wait for FIN sequence.

For normal sockets, a reference is taken to their net namespace, so it will
never exit while the socket is open.  However, kernel sockets do not take a
reference to their net namespace, so it may begin exiting while the kernel
socket is still open.  In this case if the kernel socket is a tcp socket,
it will stay open trying to complete its close sequence.  The sock's dst(s)
hold a reference to their interface, which are all transferred to the
namespace's loopback interface when the real interfaces are taken down.
When the namespace tries to take down its loopback interface, it hangs
waiting for all references to the loopback interface to release, which
results in messages like:

unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 1

These messages continue until the socket finally times out and closes.
Since the net namespace cleanup holds the net_mutex while calling its
registered pernet callbacks, any new net namespace initialization is
blocked until the current net namespace finishes exiting.

After this change, the tcp socket notices the exiting net namespace, and
closes immediately, releasing its dst(s) and their reference to the
loopback interface, which lets the net namespace continue exiting.

Commit 513674b5a2c9 ("net: reevalulate autoflowlabel setting after
sysctl setting") removed the initialisation of
ipv6_pinfo::autoflowlabel and added a second flag to indicate
whether this field or the net namespace default should be used.

The getsockopt() handling for this case was not updated, so it
currently returns 0 for all sockets for which IPV6_AUTOFLOWLABEL is
not explicitly enabled.  Fix it to return the effective value, whether
that has been set at the socket or net namespace level.

<title>sctp: fix the handling of ICMP Frag Needed for too small MTUs</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit b6c5734db07079c9410147b32407f2366d584e6c ]

syzbot reported a hang involving SCTP, on which it kept flooding dmesg
with the message:
[  246.742374] sctp: sctp_transport_update_pmtu: Reported pmtu 508 too
low, using default minimum of 512

That happened because whenever SCTP hits an ICMP Frag Needed, it tries
to adjust to the new MTU and triggers an immediate retransmission. But
it didn't consider the fact that MTUs smaller than the SCTP minimum MTU
allowed (512) would not cause the PMTU to change, and issued the
retransmission anyway (thus leading to another ICMP Frag Needed, and so
on).

As IPv4 (ip_rt_min_pmtu=556) and IPv6 (IPV6_MIN_MTU=1280) minimum MTU
are higher than that, sctp_transport_update_pmtu() is changed to
re-fetch the PMTU that got set after our request, and with that, detect
if there was an actual change or not.

The fix, thus, skips the immediate retransmission if the received ICMP
resulted in no change, in the hope that SCTP will select another path.

Note: The value being used for the minimum MTU (512,
SCTP_DEFAULT_MINSEGMENT) is not right and instead it should be (576,
SCTP_MIN_PMTU), but such change belongs to another patch.

Changes from v1:
- do not disable PMTU discovery, in the light of commit
06ad391919b2 ("[SCTP] Don't disable PMTU discovery when mtu is small")
and as suggested by Xin Long.
- changed the way to break the rtx loop by detecting if the icmp
  resulted in a change or not
Changes from v2:
none

<title>tcp: invalidate rate samples during SACK reneging</title>

[ Upstream commit d4761754b4fb2ef8d9a1e9d121c4bec84e1fe292 ]

Mark tcp_sock during a SACK reneging event and invalidate rate samples
while marked. Such rate samples may overestimate bw by including packets
that were SACKed before reneging.

&lt; ack 6001 win 10000 sack 7001:38001
&lt; ack 7001 win 0 sack 8001:38001 // Reneg detected
&gt; seq 7001:8001 // RTO, SACK cleared.
&lt; ack 38001 win 10000

In above example the rate sample taken after the last ack will count
7001-38001 as delivered while the actual delivery rate likely could
be much lower i.e. 7001-8001.

This patch adds a new field tcp_sock.sack_reneg and marks it when we
declare SACK reneging and entering TCP_CA_Loss, and unmarks it after
the last rate sample was taken before moving back to TCP_CA_Open. This
patch also invalidates rate samples taken while tcp_sock.is_sack_reneg
is set.

[ Upstream commit b5476022bbada3764609368f03329ca287528dc8 ]

IPv4 stack reacts to changes to small MTU, by disabling itself under
RTNL.

But there is a window where threads not using RTNL can see a wrong
device mtu. This can lead to surprises, in igmp code where it is
assumed the mtu is suitable.

Fix this by reading device mtu once and checking IPv4 minimal MTU.

This patch adds missing IPV4_MIN_MTU define, to not abuse
ETH_MIN_MTU anymore.

<title>net: accept UFO datagrams from tuntap and packet</title>

[ Upstream commit 0c19f846d582af919db66a5914a0189f9f92c936 ]

Tuntap and similar devices can inject GSO packets. Accept type
VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP, even though not generating UFO natively.

Processes are expected to use feature negotiation such as TUNSETOFFLOAD
to detect supported offload types and refrain from injecting other
packets. This process breaks down with live migration: guest kernels
do not renegotiate flags, so destination hosts need to expose all
features that the source host does.

Partially revert the UFO removal from 182e0b6b5846~1..d9d30adf5677.
This patch introduces nearly(*) no new code to simplify verification.
It brings back verbatim tuntap UFO negotiation, VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP
insertion and software UFO segmentation.

It does not reinstate protocol stack support, hardware offload
(NETIF_F_UFO), SKB_GSO_UDP tunneling in SKB_GSO_SOFTWARE or reception
of VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP packets in tuntap.

To support SKB_GSO_UDP reappearing in the stack, also reinstate
logic in act_csum and openvswitch. Achieve equivalence with v4.13 HEAD
by squashing in commit 939912216fa8 ("net: skb_needs_check() removes
CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY check for tx.") and reverting commit 8d63bee643f1
("net: avoid skb_warn_bad_offload false positives on UFO").

(*) To avoid having to bring back skb_shinfo(skb)-&gt;ip6_frag_id,
ipv6_proxy_select_ident is changed to return a __be32 and this is
assigned directly to the frag_hdr. Also, SKB_GSO_UDP is inserted
at the end of the enum to minimize code churn.

Tested
  Booted a v4.13 guest kernel with QEMU. On a host kernel before this
  patch `ethtool -k eth0` shows UFO disabled. After the patch, it is
  enabled, same as on a v4.13 host kernel.

  A UFO packet sent from the guest appears on the tap device:
    host:
      nc -l -p -u 8000 &amp;
      tcpdump -n -i tap0

    guest:
      dd if=/dev/zero of=payload.txt bs=1 count=2000
      nc -u 192.16.1.1 8000 &lt; payload.txt

  Direct tap to tap transmission of VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP succeeds,
  packets arriving fragmented:

    ./with_tap_pair.sh ./tap_send_ufo tap0 tap1
    (from https://github.com/wdebruij/kerneltools/tree/master/tests)

Changes
  v1 -&gt; v2
    - simplified set_offload change (review comment)
    - documented test procedure

<title>tcp: when scheduling TLP, time of RTO should account for current ACK</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit ed66dfaf236c04d414de1d218441296e57fb2bd2 ]

Fix the TLP scheduling logic so that when scheduling a TLP probe, we
ensure that the estimated time at which an RTO would fire accounts for
the fact that ACKs indicating forward progress should push back RTO
times.

After the following fix:

df92c8394e6e ("tcp: fix xmit timer to only be reset if data ACKed/SACKed")

we had an unintentional behavior change in the following kind of
scenario: suppose the RTT variance has been very low recently. Then
suppose we send out a flight of N packets and our RTT is 100ms:

t=0: send a flight of N packets
t=100ms: receive an ACK for N-1 packets

The response before df92c8394e6e that was:
  -&gt; schedule a TLP for now + RTO_interval

The response after df92c8394e6e is:
  -&gt; schedule a TLP for t=0 + RTO_interval

Since RTO_interval = srtt + RTT_variance, this means that we have
scheduled a TLP timer at a point in the future that only accounts for
RTT_variance. If the RTT_variance term is small, this means that the
timer fires soon.

Before df92c8394e6e this would not happen, because in that code, when
we receive an ACK for a prefix of flight, we did:

    1) Near the top of tcp_ack(), switch from TLP timer to RTO
       at write_queue_head-&gt;paket_tx_time + RTO_interval:
            if (icsk-&gt;icsk_pending == ICSK_TIME_LOSS_PROBE)
                   tcp_rearm_rto(sk);

    2) In tcp_clean_rtx_queue(), update the RTO to now + RTO_interval:
            if (flag &amp; FLAG_ACKED) {
                   tcp_rearm_rto(sk);

    3) In tcp_ack() after tcp_fastretrans_alert() switch from RTO
       to TLP at now + RTO_interval:
            if (icsk-&gt;icsk_pending == ICSK_TIME_RETRANS)
                   tcp_schedule_loss_probe(sk);

In df92c8394e6e we removed that 3-phase dance, and instead directly
set the TLP timer once: we set the TLP timer in cases like this to
write_queue_head-&gt;packet_tx_time + RTO_interval. So if the RTT
variance is small, then this means that this is setting the TLP timer
to fire quite soon. This means if the ACK for the tail of the flight
takes longer than an RTT to arrive (often due to delayed ACKs), then
the TLP timer fires too quickly.
