kongweibin reported a kernel panic in ip6_forward() when input interface
has no in6 dev associated.

The following tc commands were used to reproduce this panic:
tc qdisc del dev vxlan100 root
tc qdisc add dev vxlan100 root netem corrupt 5%

<title>net: Add l3mdev index to flow struct and avoid oif reset for port devices</title>

<id>urn:sha1:40867d74c374b235e14d839f3a77f26684feefe5</id>
<content type='text'>
The fundamental premise of VRF and l3mdev core code is binding a socket
to a device (l3mdev or netdev with an L3 domain) to indicate L3 scope.
Legacy code resets flowi_oif to the l3mdev losing any original port
device binding. Ben (among others) has demonstrated use cases where the
original port device binding is important and needs to be retained.
This patch handles that by adding a new entry to the common flow struct
that can indicate the l3mdev index for later rule and table matching
avoiding the need to reset flowi_oif.

In addition to allowing more use cases that require port device binds,
this patch brings a few datapath simplications:

1. l3mdev_fib_rule_match is only called when walking fib rules and
   always after l3mdev_update_flow. That allows an optimization to bail
   early for non-VRF type uses cases when flowi_l3mdev is not set. Also,
   only that index needs to be checked for the FIB table id.

2. l3mdev_update_flow can be called with flowi_oif set to a l3mdev
   (e.g., VRF) device. By resetting flowi_oif only for this case the
   FLOWI_FLAG_SKIP_NH_OIF flag is not longer needed and can be removed,
   removing several checks in the datapath. The flowi_iif path can be
   simplified to only be called if the it is not loopback (loopback can
   not be assigned to an L3 domain) and the l3mdev index is not already
   set.

3. Avoid another device lookup in the output path when the fib lookup
   returns a reject failure.

Note: 2 functional tests for local traffic with reject fib rules are
updated to reflect the new direct failure at FIB lookup time for ping
rather than the failure on packet path. The current code fails like this:

    HINT: Fails since address on vrf device is out of device scope
    COMMAND: ip netns exec ns-A ping -c1 -w1 -I eth1 172.16.3.1
    ping: Warning: source address might be selected on device other than: eth1
    PING 172.16.3.1 (172.16.3.1) from 172.16.3.1 eth1: 56(84) bytes of data.

    --- 172.16.3.1 ping statistics ---
    1 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 0ms

where the test now directly fails:

    HINT: Fails since address on vrf device is out of device scope
    COMMAND: ip netns exec ns-A ping -c1 -w1 -I eth1 172.16.3.1
    ping: connect: No route to host

Syzbot found a kernel bug in the ipv6 stack:
LINK: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=205d6f11d72329ab8d62a610c44c5e7e25415580
The reproducer triggers it by sending a crafted message via sendmmsg()
call, which triggers skb_over_panic, and crashes the kernel:

skbuff: skb_over_panic: text:ffffffff84647fb4 len:65575 put:65575
head:ffff888109ff0000 data:ffff888109ff0088 tail:0x100af end:0xfec0
dev:&lt;NULL&gt;

Update the check that prevents an invalid packet with MTU equal
to the fregment header size to eat up all the space for payload.

<title>net: Add skb_clear_tstamp() to keep the mono delivery_time</title>

<content type='text'>
Right now, skb-&gt;tstamp is reset to 0 whenever the skb is forwarded.

If skb-&gt;tstamp has the mono delivery_time, clearing it can hurt
the performance when it finally transmits out to fq@phy-dev.

The earlier patch added a skb-&gt;mono_delivery_time bit to
flag the skb-&gt;tstamp carrying the mono delivery_time.

This patch adds skb_clear_tstamp() helper which keeps
the mono delivery_time and clears everything else.

The delivery_time clearing will be postponed until the stack knows the
skb will be delivered locally.  It will be done in a latter patch.

<title>net: Add skb-&gt;mono_delivery_time to distinguish mono delivery_time from (rcv) timestamp</title>
<updated>2022-03-03T14:38:48+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.radix-linux.su/kernel/linux.git/commit/?id=a1ac9c8acec1605c6b43af418f79facafdced680'/>
<id>urn:sha1:a1ac9c8acec1605c6b43af418f79facafdced680</id>
<content type='text'>
skb-&gt;tstamp was first used as the (rcv) timestamp.
The major usage is to report it to the user (e.g. SO_TIMESTAMP).

Later, skb-&gt;tstamp is also set as the (future) delivery_time (e.g. EDT in TCP)
during egress and used by the qdisc (e.g. sch_fq) to make decision on when
the skb can be passed to the dev.

Currently, there is no way to tell skb-&gt;tstamp having the (rcv) timestamp
or the delivery_time, so it is always reset to 0 whenever forwarded
between egress and ingress.

While it makes sense to always clear the (rcv) timestamp in skb-&gt;tstamp
to avoid confusing sch_fq that expects the delivery_time, it is a
performance issue [0] to clear the delivery_time if the skb finally
egress to a fq@phy-dev.  For example, when forwarding from egress to
ingress and then finally back to egress:

            tcp-sender =&gt; veth@netns =&gt; veth@hostns =&gt; fq@eth0@hostns
                                     ^              ^
                                     reset          rest

This patch adds one bit skb-&gt;mono_delivery_time to flag the skb-&gt;tstamp
is storing the mono delivery_time (EDT) instead of the (rcv) timestamp.

The current use case is to keep the TCP mono delivery_time (EDT) and
to be used with sch_fq.  A latter patch will also allow tc-bpf@ingress
to read and change the mono delivery_time.

In the future, another bit (e.g. skb-&gt;user_delivery_time) can be added
for the SCM_TXTIME where the clock base is tracked by sk-&gt;sk_clockid.

[ This patch is a prep work.  The following patches will
  get the other parts of the stack ready first.  Then another patch
  after that will finally set the skb-&gt;mono_delivery_time. ]

skb_set_delivery_time() function is added.  It is used by the tcp_output.c
and during ip[6] fragmentation to assign the delivery_time to
the skb-&gt;tstamp and also set the skb-&gt;mono_delivery_time.

A note on the change in ip_send_unicast_reply() in ip_output.c.
It is only used by TCP to send reset/ack out of a ctl_sk.
Like the new skb_set_delivery_time(), this patch sets
the skb-&gt;mono_delivery_time to 0 for now as a place
holder.  It will be enabled in a latter patch.
A similar case in tcp_ipv6 can be done with
skb_set_delivery_time() in tcp_v6_send_response().

with kfree_skb_reason(). Functions that are involved include:

__ip_queue_xmit()
ip_finish_output()
ip_mc_finish_output()
ip6_output()
