[ Upstream commit 9fba1eb39e2f74d2002c5cbcf1d4435d37a4f752 ]

Add READ_ONCE() annotations because np-&gt;rxpmtu can be changed
while udpv6_recvmsg() and rawv6_recvmsg() read it.

Since this is a very rarely used feature, and that udpv6_recvmsg()
and rawv6_recvmsg() read np-&gt;rxopt anyway, change the test order
so that np-&gt;rxpmtu does not need to be in a hot cache line.

commit 3632679d9e4f879f49949bb5b050e0de553e4739 upstream.

With a raw socket bound to IPPROTO_RAW (ie with hdrincl enabled), the
protocol field of the flow structure, build by raw_sendmsg() /
rawv6_sendmsg()),  is set to IPPROTO_RAW. This breaks the ipsec policy
lookup when some policies are defined with a protocol in the selector.

For ipv6, the sin6_port field from 'struct sockaddr_in6' could be used to
specify the protocol. Just accept all values for IPPROTO_RAW socket.

For ipv4, the sin_port field of 'struct sockaddr_in' could not be used
without breaking backward compatibility (the value of this field was never
checked). Let's add a new kind of control message, so that the userland
could specify which protocol is used.

<title>inet6: Remove inet6_destroy_sock() in sk-&gt;sk_prot-&gt;destroy().</title>

commit b5fc29233d28be7a3322848ebe73ac327559cdb9 upstream.

After commit d38afeec26ed ("tcp/udp: Call inet6_destroy_sock()
in IPv6 sk-&gt;sk_destruct()."), we call inet6_destroy_sock() in
sk-&gt;sk_destruct() by setting inet6_sock_destruct() to it to make
sure we do not leak inet6-specific resources.

Now we can remove unnecessary inet6_destroy_sock() calls in
sk-&gt;sk_prot-&gt;destroy().

DCCP and SCTP have their own sk-&gt;sk_destruct() function, so we
change them separately in the following patches.

commit cb3e9864cdbe35ff6378966660edbcbac955fe17 upstream.

The total cork length created by ip6_append_data includes extension
headers, so we must exclude them when comparing them against the
IPV6_CHECKSUM offset which does not include extension headers.

[ Upstream commit 3df98d79215ace13d1e91ddfc5a67a0f5acbd83f ]

As pointed out by Herbert in a recent related patch, the LSM hooks do
not have the necessary address family information to use the flowi
struct safely.  As none of the LSMs currently use any of the protocol
specific flowi information, replace the flowi pointers with pointers
to the address family independent flowi_common struct.

[ Upstream commit fb7bc9204095090731430c8921f9e629740c110a ]

Add a check that the user-provided option is at least as long as the
number of bytes we intend to read. Before this patch we would blindly
read sizeof(int) bytes even in cases where the user passed
optlen&lt;sizeof(int), which would potentially read garbage or fault.

Discovered by new tests in https://github.com/google/gvisor/pull/6957 .

The original get_user call predates history in the git repo.

<title>net-ipv6: bugfix - raw &amp; sctp - switch to ipv6_can_nonlocal_bind()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5d9216b851009617e9841340d1702c55c430946b</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 630e4576f83accf90366686f39808d665d8dbecc upstream.

Found by virtue of ipv6 raw sockets not honouring the per-socket
IP{,V6}_FREEBIND setting.

Based on hits found via:
  git grep '[.]ip_nonlocal_bind'
We fix both raw ipv6 sockets to honour IP{,V6}_FREEBIND and IP{,V6}_TRANSPARENT,
and we fix sctp sockets to honour IP{,V6}_TRANSPARENT (they already honoured
FREEBIND), and not just the ipv6 'ip_nonlocal_bind' sysctl.

The helper is defined as:
  static inline bool ipv6_can_nonlocal_bind(struct net *net, struct inet_sock *inet) {
    return net-&gt;ipv6.sysctl.ip_nonlocal_bind || inet-&gt;freebind || inet-&gt;transparent;
  }
so this change only widens the accepted opt-outs and is thus a clean bugfix.

I'm not entirely sure what 'fixes' tag to add, since this is AFAICT an ancient bug,
but IMHO this should be applied to stable kernels as far back as possible.
As such I'm adding a 'fixes' tag with the commit that originally added the helper,
which happened in 4.19.  Backporting to older LTS kernels (at least 4.9 and 4.14)
would presumably require open-coding it or backporting the helper as well.

Other possibly relevant commits:
  v4.18-rc6-1502-g83ba4645152d net: add helpers checking if socket can be bound to nonlocal address
  v4.18-rc6-1431-gd0c1f01138c4 net/ipv6: allow any source address for sendmsg pktinfo with ip_nonlocal_bind
  v4.14-rc5-271-gb71d21c274ef sctp: full support for ipv6 ip_nonlocal_bind &amp; IP_FREEBIND
  v4.7-rc7-1883-g9b9742022888 sctp: support ipv6 nonlocal bind
  v4.1-12247-g35a256fee52c ipv6: Nonlocal bind

It's always 0.  Note that we theoretically could use ~0U as well -
result will be the same modulo 0xffff, _if_ the damn thing did the
right thing for any value of initial sum; later we'll make use of
that when convenient.

However, unlike csum_and_copy_..._user(), there are instances that
did not work for arbitrary initial sums; c6x is one such.
