Validate gso_type during segmentation as SKB_GSO_DODGY sources
may pass packets where the gso_type does not match the contents.

Syzkaller was able to enter the SCTP gso handler with a packet of
gso_type SKB_GSO_TCPV4.

On entry of transport layer gso handlers, verify that the gso_type
matches the transport protocol.

<title>tcp: gso: avoid refcount_t warning from tcp_gso_segment()</title>

When a GSO skb of truesize O is segmented into 2 new skbs of truesize N1
and N2, we want to transfer socket ownership to the new fresh skbs.

In order to avoid expensive atomic operations on a cache line subject to
cache bouncing, we replace the sequence :

refcount_add(N1, &amp;sk-&gt;sk_wmem_alloc);
refcount_add(N2, &amp;sk-&gt;sk_wmem_alloc); // repeated by number of segments

refcount_sub(O, &amp;sk-&gt;sk_wmem_alloc);

by a single

refcount_add(sum_of(N) - O, &amp;sk-&gt;sk_wmem_alloc);

Problem is :

In some pathological cases, sum(N) - O might be a negative number, and
syzkaller bot was apparently able to trigger this trace [1]

atomic_t was ok with this construct, but we need to take care of the
negative delta with refcount_t

[1]
refcount_t: saturated; leaking memory.

refcount_t type and corresponding API should be
used instead of atomic_t when the variable is used as
a reference counter. This allows to avoid accidental
refcounter overflows that might lead to use-after-free
situations.

Since commit 8a29111c7 ("net: gro: allow to build full sized skb")
gro may build buffers with a frag_list. This can hurt forwarding
because most NICs can't offload such packets, they need to be
segmented in software. This patch splits buffers with a frag_list
at the frag_list pointer into buffers that can be TSO offloaded.

<id>urn:sha1:5c7cdf339af560f980b12eb6b0b5aa5f68ac6658</id>
<content type='text'>
In several gso_segment functions there are checks of gso_type against
a seemingly arbitrary list of SKB_GSO_* flags. This seems like an
attempt to identify unsupported GSO types, but since the stack is
the one that set these GSO types in the first place this seems
unnecessary to do. If a combination isn't valid in the first
place that stack should not allow setting it.

This is a code simplication especially for add new GSO types.

<id>urn:sha1:802ab55adc39a06940a1b384e9fd0387fc762d7e</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch adds support for something I am referring to as GSO partial.
The basic idea is that we can support a broader range of devices for
segmentation if we use fixed outer headers and have the hardware only
really deal with segmenting the inner header.  The idea behind the naming
is due to the fact that everything before csum_start will be fixed headers,
and everything after will be the region that is handled by hardware.

With the current implementation it allows us to add support for the
following GSO types with an inner TSO_MANGLEID or TSO6 offload:
NETIF_F_GSO_GRE
NETIF_F_GSO_GRE_CSUM
NETIF_F_GSO_IPIP
NETIF_F_GSO_SIT
NETIF_F_UDP_TUNNEL
NETIF_F_UDP_TUNNEL_CSUM

In the case of hardware that already supports tunneling we may be able to
extend this further to support TSO_TCPV4 without TSO_MANGLEID if the
hardware can support updating inner IPv4 headers.

<id>urn:sha1:1530545ed64b42e87acb43c0c16401bd1ebae6bf</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch does two things.

First it allows TCP to aggregate TCP frames with a fixed IPv4 ID field.  As
a result we should now be able to aggregate flows that were converted from
IPv6 to IPv4.  In addition this allows us more flexibility for future
implementations of segmentation as we may be able to use a fixed IP ID when
segmenting the flow.

The second thing this does is that it places limitations on the outer IPv4
ID header in the case of tunneled frames.  Specifically it forces the IP ID
to be incrementing by 1 unless the DF bit is set in the outer IPv4 header.
This way we can avoid creating overlapping series of IP IDs that could
possibly be fragmented if the frame goes through GRO and is then
resegmented via GSO.

<content type='text'>
This patch adds support for TSO using IPv4 headers with a fixed IP ID
field.  This is meant to allow us to do a lossless GRO in the case of TCP
flows that use a fixed IP ID such as those that convert IPv6 header to IPv4
headers.

In addition I am adding a feature that for now I am referring to TSO with
IP ID mangling.  Basically when this flag is enabled the device has the
option to either output the flow with incrementing IP IDs or with a fixed
IP ID regardless of what the original IP ID ordering was.  This is useful
in cases where the DF bit is set and we do not care if the original IP ID
value is maintained.

<id>urn:sha1:08b64fcca942733413bc5ac2321d57021d3e8578</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch makes it so that we can offload the checksums for a packet up
to a certain point and then begin computing the checksums via software.
Setting this up is fairly straight forward as all we need to do is reset
the values stored in csum and csum_start for the GSO context block.

One complication for this is remote checksum offload.  In order to allow
the inner checksums to be offloaded while computing the outer checksum
manually we needed to have some way of indicating that the offload wasn't
real.  In order to do that I replaced CHECKSUM_PARTIAL with
CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY in the case of us computing checksums for the outer
header while skipping computing checksums for the inner headers.  We clean
up the ip_summed flag and set it to either CHECKSUM_PARTIAL or
CHECKSUM_NONE once we hand the packet off to the next lower level.

tcp_gso_segment() and tcp_gro_receive() are not strictly
part of TCP stack. They should not assume tcp_skb_mss(skb)
is in fact skb_shinfo(skb)-&gt;gso_size.

This will allow us to change tcp_skb_mss() in following patches.
