net: ipv6: fix dif and sdif mismatch in raw6_icmp_error

2026-08-03T09:17:15+00:00

[ Upstream commit 440e274da4d1b93c7df2cb0ce893c3009dd4db55 ] In raw6_icmp_error(), raw_v6_match() is called with inet6_iif(skb) passed to both the 'dif' and 'sdif' arguments. This is a copy-paste or typo error, as the last argument should represent the secondary interface index (sdif). This mismatch breaks ICMPv6 error handling for IPv6 raw sockets in VRF (Virtual Routing and Forwarding) environments. When a raw socket is bound to a VRF master device, raw_v6_match() fails to find a match because it is not given the correct sdif value, causing the socket to miss relevant ICMPv6 error notifications. Fix this by properly passing inet6_sdif(skb) as the last argument to raw_v6_match().

ipv6: np->rxpmtu race annotation

2025-11-13T20:34:27+00:00

[ Upstream commit 9fba1eb39e2f74d2002c5cbcf1d4435d37a4f752 ] Add READ_ONCE() annotations because np->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->rxopt anyway, change the test order so that np->rxpmtu does not need to be in a hot cache line.

ipv6: replace ipcm6_init calls with ipcm6_init_sk

2025-06-27T10:11:41+00:00

commit 096208592b09c2f5fc0c1a174694efa41c04209d upstream. This initializes tclass and dontfrag before cmsg parsing, removing the need for explicit checks against -1 in each caller. Leave hlimit set to -1, because its full initialization (in ip6_sk_dst_hoplimit) requires more state (dst, flowi6, ..). This also prepares for calling sockcm_init in a follow-on patch.

net: Add additional bit to support clockid_t timestamp type

2024-05-23T21:14:36+00:00

tstamp_type is now set based on actual clockid_t compressed into 2 bits. To make the design scalable for future needs this commit bring in the change to extend the tstamp_type:1 to tstamp_type:2 to support other clockid_t timestamp. We now support CLOCK_TAI as part of tstamp_type as part of this commit with existing support CLOCK_MONOTONIC and CLOCK_REALTIME.

Revert "net: Re-use and set mono_delivery_time bit for userspace tstamp packets"

2024-03-18T12:29:53+00:00

This reverts commit 885c36e59f46375c138de18ff1692f18eff67b7f. The patch currently broke the bpf selftest test_tc_dtime because uapi field __sk_buff->tstamp_type depends on skb->mono_delivery_time which does not necessarily mean mono with the original fix as the bit was re-used for userspace timestamp as well to avoid tstamp reset in the forwarding path. To solve this we need to keep mono_delivery_time as is and introduce another bit called user_delivery_time and fall back to the initial proposal of setting the user_delivery_time bit based on sk_clockid set from userspace.

net: Re-use and set mono_delivery_time bit for userspace tstamp packets

2024-03-05T12:41:16+00:00

Bridge driver today has no support to forward the userspace timestamp packets and ends up resetting the timestamp. ETF qdisc checks the packet coming from userspace and encounters to be 0 thereby dropping time sensitive packets. These changes will allow userspace timestamps packets to be forwarded from the bridge to NIC drivers. Setting the same bit (mono_delivery_time) to avoid dropping of userspace tstamp packets in the forwarding path. Existing functionality of mono_delivery_time remains unaltered here, instead just extended with userspace tstamp support for bridge forwarding path.
