netfilter: nf_queue: hold bridge skb->dev while queued

2026-06-01T15:39:35+00:00

commit e196115ec330a18de415bdb9f5071aa9f08e53ce upstream. br_pass_frame_up() rewrites skb->dev from the ingress port to the bridge master before queueing bridge LOCAL_IN packets. NFQUEUE only holds references on state.in/out and bridge physdevs, so a queued bridge packet can retain a freed bridge master in skb->dev until reinjection. When the verdict is reinjected later, br_netif_receive_skb() re-enters the receive path with skb->dev still pointing at the freed bridge master, triggering a use-after-free. Store skb->dev in the queue entry, hold a reference on it for the queue lifetime, and use the saved device when dropping queued packets during NETDEV_DOWN handling.

bonding: add support for per-port LACP actor priority

2026-06-01T15:39:30+00:00

[ Upstream commit 6b6dc81ee7e8ca87c71a533e1d69cf96a4f1e986 ] Introduce a new netlink attribute 'actor_port_prio' to allow setting the LACP actor port priority on a per-slave basis. This extends the existing bonding infrastructure to support more granular control over LACP negotiations. The priority value is embedded in LACPDU packets and will be used by subsequent patches to influence aggregator selection policies.

net: bonding: add broadcast_neighbor option for 802.3ad

2026-06-01T15:39:30+00:00

[ Upstream commit ce7a381697cb3958ffe0b45e5028ac69444e9288 ] Stacking technology is a type of technology used to expand ports on Ethernet switches. It is widely used as a common access method in large-scale Internet data center architectures. Years of practice have proved that stacking technology has advantages and disadvantages in high-reliability network architecture scenarios. For instance, in stacking networking arch, conventional switch system upgrades require multiple stacked devices to restart at the same time. Therefore, it is inevitable that the business will be interrupted for a while. It is for this reason that "no-stacking" in data centers has become a trend. Additionally, when the stacking link connecting the switches fails or is abnormal, the stack will split. Although it is not common, it still happens in actual operation. The problem is that after the split, it is equivalent to two switches with the same configuration appearing in the network, causing network configuration conflicts and ultimately interrupting the services carried by the stacking system. To improve network stability, "non-stacking" solutions have been increasingly adopted, particularly by public cloud providers and tech companies like Alibaba, Tencent, and Didi. "non-stacking" is a method of mimicing switch stacking that convinces a LACP peer, bonding in this case, connected to a set of "non-stacked" switches that all of its ports are connected to a single switch (i.e., LACP aggregator), as if those switches were stacked. This enables the LACP peer's ports to aggregate together, and requires (a) special switch configuration, described in the linked article, and (b) modifications to the bonding 802.3ad (LACP) mode to send all ARP/ND packets across all ports of the active aggregator. Note that, with multiple aggregators, the current broadcast mode logic will send only packets to the selected aggregator(s). +-----------+ +-----------+ | switch1 | | switch2 | +-----------+ +-----------+ ^ ^ | | +-----------------+ | bond4 lacp | +-----------------+ | | | NIC1 | NIC2 +-----------------+ | server | +-----------------+ - https://www.ruijie.com/fr-fr/support/tech-gallery/de-stack-data-center-network-architecture/ Cc: Jay Vosburgh Cc: "David S.

ipv6: rename and move ip6_dst_lookup_tunnel()

ipv4: add new arguments to udp_tunnel_dst_lookup()

[ Upstream commit 72fc68c6356b663a8763f02d9b0ec773d59a4949 ] We want to make the function more generic so that it can be used by other UDP tunnel implementations such as geneve and vxlan. To do that, add the following arguments: - source and destination UDP port; - ifindex of the output interface, needed by vxlan; - the tos, because in some cases it is not taken from struct ip_tunnel_info (for example, when it's inherited from the inner packet); - the dst cache, because not all tunnel types (e.g. vxlan) want to use the one from struct ip_tunnel_info. With these parameters, the function no longer needs the full struct ip_tunnel_info as argument and we can pass only the relevant part of it (struct ip_tunnel_key).
