[ Upstream commit 67c8d22a73128ff910e2287567132530abcf5b71 ]

If we want to add a datapath flow, which has more than 500 vxlan outputs'
action, we will get the following error reports:
  openvswitch: netlink: Flow action size 32832 bytes exceeds max
  openvswitch: netlink: Flow action size 32832 bytes exceeds max
  openvswitch: netlink: Actions may not be safe on all matching packets
  ... ...

It seems that we can simply enlarge the MAX_ACTIONS_BUFSIZE to fix it, but
this is not the root cause. For example, for a vxlan output action, we need
about 60 bytes for the nlattr, but after it is converted to the flow
action, it only occupies 24 bytes. This means that we can still support
more than 1000 vxlan output actions for a single datapath flow under the
the current 32k max limitation.

So even if the nla_len(attr) is larger than MAX_ACTIONS_BUFSIZE, we
shouldn't report EINVAL and keep it move on, as the judgement can be
done by the reserve_sfa_size.

skb_vlan_pop() expects skb-&gt;protocol to be a valid TPID for double
tagged frames. So set skb-&gt;protocol to the TPID and let skb_vlan_pop()
shift the true ethertype into position for us.

[ Upstream commit 2734166e89639c973c6e125ac8bcfc2d9db72b70 ]

gso_type is being used in binary AND operations together with SKB_GSO_UDP.
The issue is that variable gso_type is of type unsigned short and
SKB_GSO_UDP expands to more than 16 bits:

SKB_GSO_UDP = 1 &lt;&lt; 16

this makes any binary AND operation between gso_type and SKB_GSO_UDP to
be always zero, hence making some code unreachable and likely causing
undesired behavior.

Fix this by changing the data type of variable gso_type to unsigned int.

[ Upstream commit 0c19f846d582af919db66a5914a0189f9f92c936 ]

Tuntap and similar devices can inject GSO packets. Accept type
VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP, even though not generating UFO natively.

Processes are expected to use feature negotiation such as TUNSETOFFLOAD
to detect supported offload types and refrain from injecting other
packets. This process breaks down with live migration: guest kernels
do not renegotiate flags, so destination hosts need to expose all
features that the source host does.

Partially revert the UFO removal from 182e0b6b5846~1..d9d30adf5677.
This patch introduces nearly(*) no new code to simplify verification.
It brings back verbatim tuntap UFO negotiation, VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP
insertion and software UFO segmentation.

It does not reinstate protocol stack support, hardware offload
(NETIF_F_UFO), SKB_GSO_UDP tunneling in SKB_GSO_SOFTWARE or reception
of VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP packets in tuntap.

To support SKB_GSO_UDP reappearing in the stack, also reinstate
logic in act_csum and openvswitch. Achieve equivalence with v4.13 HEAD
by squashing in commit 939912216fa8 ("net: skb_needs_check() removes
CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY check for tx.") and reverting commit 8d63bee643f1
("net: avoid skb_warn_bad_offload false positives on UFO").

(*) To avoid having to bring back skb_shinfo(skb)-&gt;ip6_frag_id,
ipv6_proxy_select_ident is changed to return a __be32 and this is
assigned directly to the frag_hdr. Also, SKB_GSO_UDP is inserted
at the end of the enum to minimize code churn.

Tested
  Booted a v4.13 guest kernel with QEMU. On a host kernel before this
  patch `ethtool -k eth0` shows UFO disabled. After the patch, it is
  enabled, same as on a v4.13 host kernel.

  A UFO packet sent from the guest appears on the tap device:
    host:
      nc -l -p -u 8000 &amp;
      tcpdump -n -i tap0

    guest:
      dd if=/dev/zero of=payload.txt bs=1 count=2000
      nc -u 192.16.1.1 8000 &lt; payload.txt

  Direct tap to tap transmission of VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP succeeds,
  packets arriving fragmented:

    ./with_tap_pair.sh ./tap_send_ufo tap0 tap1
    (from https://github.com/wdebruij/kerneltools/tree/master/tests)

Changes
  v1 -&gt; v2
    - simplified set_offload change (review comment)
    - documented test procedure

<title>License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b24413180f5600bcb3bb70fbed5cf186b60864bd</id>
<content type='text'>
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode &amp; Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained &gt;5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if &lt;5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

====================
Netfilter updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next
tree. Basically, updates to the conntrack core, enhancements for
nf_tables, conversion of netfilter hooks from linked list to array to
improve memory locality and asorted improvements for the Netfilter
codebase. More specifically, they are:

1) Add expection to hashes after timer initialization to prevent
   access from another CPU that walks on the hashes and calls
   del_timer(), from Florian Westphal.

2) Don't update nf_tables chain counters from hot path, this is only
   used by the x_tables compatibility layer.

3) Get rid of nested rcu_read_lock() calls from netfilter hook path.
   Hooks are always guaranteed to run from rcu read side, so remove
   nested rcu_read_lock() where possible. Patch from Taehee Yoo.

4) nf_tables new ruleset generation notifications include PID and name
   of the process that has updated the ruleset, from Phil Sutter.

5) Use skb_header_pointer() from nft_fib, so we can reuse this code from
   the nf_family netdev family. Patch from Pablo M. Bermudo.

6) Add support for nft_fib in nf_tables netdev family, also from Pablo.

7) Use deferrable workqueue for conntrack garbage collection, to reduce
   power consumption, from Patch from Subash Abhinov Kasiviswanathan.

8) Add nf_ct_expect_iterate_net() helper and use it. From Florian
   Westphal.

9) Call nf_ct_unconfirmed_destroy only from cttimeout, from Florian.

10) Drop references on conntrack removal path when skbuffs has escaped via
    nfqueue, from Florian.

11) Don't queue packets to nfqueue with dying conntrack, from Florian.

12) Constify nf_hook_ops structure, from Florian.

13) Remove neededlessly branch in nf_tables trace code, from Phil Sutter.

14) Add nla_strdup(), from Phil Sutter.

15) Rise nf_tables objects name size up to 255 chars, people want to use
    DNS names, so increase this according to what RFC 1035 specifies.
    Patch series from Phil Sutter.

16) Kill nf_conntrack_default_on, it's broken. Default on conntrack hook
    registration on demand, suggested by Eric Dumazet, patch from Florian.

17) Remove unused variables in compat_copy_entry_from_user both in
    ip_tables and arp_tables code. Patch from Taehee Yoo.

18) Constify struct nf_conntrack_l4proto, from Julia Lawall.

19) Constify nf_loginfo structure, also from Julia.

20) Use a single rb root in connlimit, from Taehee Yoo.

21) Remove unused netfilter_queue_init() prototype, from Taehee Yoo.

22) Use audit_log() instead of open-coding it, from Geliang Tang.

23) Allow to mangle tcp options via nft_exthdr, from Florian.

24) Allow to fetch TCP MSS from nft_rt, from Florian. This includes
    a fix for a miscalculation of the minimal length.

25) Simplify branch logic in h323 helper, from Nick Desaulniers.

26) Calculate netlink attribute size for conntrack tuple at compile
    time, from Florian.

27) Remove protocol name field from nf_conntrack_{l3,l4}proto structure.
    From Florian.

28) Remove holes in nf_conntrack_l4proto structure, so it becomes
    smaller. From Florian.

29) Get rid of print_tuple() indirection for /proc conntrack listing.
    Place all the code in net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_standalone.c.
    Patch from Florian.

30) Do not built in print_conntrack() if CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_PROCFS is
    off. From Florian.

31) Constify most nf_conntrack_{l3,l4}proto helper functions, from
    Florian.

32) Fix broken indentation in ebtables extensions, from Colin Ian King.

33) Fix several harmless sparse warning, from Florian.

34) Convert netfilter hook infrastructure to use array for better memory
    locality, joint work done by Florian and Aaron Conole. Moreover, add
    some instrumentation to debug this.

35) Batch nf_unregister_net_hooks() calls, to call synchronize_net once
    per batch, from Florian.

36) Get rid of noisy logging in ICMPv6 conntrack helper, from Florian.

37) Get rid of obsolete NFDEBUG() instrumentation, from Varsha Rao.

38) Remove unused code in the generic protocol tracker, from Davide
    Caratti.

I think I will have material for a second Netfilter batch in my queue if
time allow to make it fit in this merge window.

For sw_flow_actions, the actions_len only represents the kernel part's
size, and when we dump the actions to the userspace, we will do the
convertions, so it's true size may become bigger than the actions_len.

But unfortunately, for OVS_PACKET_ATTR_ACTIONS, we use the actions_len
to alloc the skbuff, so the user_skb's size may become insufficient and
oops will happen like this:
  skbuff: skb_over_panic: text:ffffffff8148fabf len:1749 put:157 head:
  ffff881300f39000 data:ffff881300f39000 tail:0x6d5 end:0x6c0 dev:&lt;NULL&gt;
  ------------[ cut here ]------------
  kernel BUG at net/core/skbuff.c:129!

Also we can find that the actions_len is much little than the orig_len:
  crash&gt; struct sw_flow_actions 0xffff8812f539d000
  struct sw_flow_actions {
    rcu = {
      next = 0xffff8812f5398800,
      func = 0xffffe3b00035db32
    },
    orig_len = 1384,
    actions_len = 592,
    actions = 0xffff8812f539d01c
  }

So as a quick fix, use the orig_len instead of the actions_len to alloc
the user_skb.

Last, this oops happened on our system running a relative old kernel, but
the same risk still exists on the mainline, since we use the wrong
actions_len from the beginning.
