skb_header_pointer() does not fully validate negative @offset values.

Use skb_header_pointer_careful() instead.

GangMin Kim provided a report and a repro fooling u32_classify():

This is more of a preventive patch to make the code more consistent and
to prevent possible exploits that employ child qlen manipulations on qfq.
use cl_is_active instead of relying on the child qdisc's qlen to determine
class activation.

<title>net/sched: Enforce that teql can only be used as root qdisc</title>

<id>urn:sha1:50da4b9d07a7a463e2cfb738f3ad4cff6b2c9c3b</id>
<content type='text'>
Design intent of teql is that it is only supposed to be used as root qdisc.
We need to check for that constraint.

Although not important, I will describe the scenario that unearthed this
issue for the curious.

GangMin Kim &lt;km.kim1503@gmail.com&gt; managed to concot a scenario as follows:

ROOT qdisc 1:0 (QFQ)
  ├── class 1:1 (weight=15, lmax=16384) netem with delay 6.4s
  └── class 1:2 (weight=1, lmax=1514) teql

GangMin sends a packet which is enqueued to 1:1 (netem).
Any invocation of dequeue by QFQ from this class will not return a packet
until after 6.4s. In the meantime, a second packet is sent and it lands on
1:2. teql's enqueue will return success and this will activate class 1:2.
Main issue is that teql only updates the parent visible qlen (sch-&gt;q.qlen)
at dequeue. Since QFQ will only call dequeue if peek succeeds (and teql's
peek always returns NULL), dequeue will never be called and thus the qlen
will remain as 0. With that in mind, when GangMin updates 1:2's lmax value,
the qfq_change_class calls qfq_deact_rm_from_agg. Since the child qdisc's
qlen was not incremented, qfq fails to deactivate the class, but still
frees its pointers from the aggregate. So when the first packet is
rescheduled after 6.4 seconds (netem's delay), a dangling pointer is
accessed causing GangMin's causing a UAF.

cl-&gt;qdisc and cl should only be freed if a new class and qdisc

<title>net/sched: sch_qfq: Fix NULL deref when deactivating inactive aggregate in qfq_reset</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c1d73b1480235731e35c81df70b08f4714a7d095</id>
<content type='text'>
`qfq_class-&gt;leaf_qdisc-&gt;q.qlen &gt; 0` does not imply that the class
itself is active.

Two qfq_class objects may point to the same leaf_qdisc. This happens
when:

1. one QFQ qdisc is attached to the dev as the root qdisc, and

2. another QFQ qdisc is temporarily referenced (e.g., via qdisc_get()
/ qdisc_put()) and is pending to be destroyed, as in function
tc_new_tfilter.

When packets are enqueued through the root QFQ qdisc, the shared
leaf_qdisc-&gt;q.qlen increases. At the same time, the second QFQ
qdisc triggers qdisc_put and qdisc_destroy: the qdisc enters
qfq_reset() with its own q-&gt;q.qlen == 0, but its class's leaf
qdisc-&gt;q.qlen &gt; 0. Therefore, the qfq_reset would wrongly deactivate
an inactive aggregate and trigger a null-deref in qfq_deactivate_agg:

<content type='text'>
syzbot reported a crash in tc_act_in_hw() during netns teardown where
tcf_idrinfo_destroy() passed an ERR_PTR(-EBUSY) value as a tc_action
pointer, leading to an invalid dereference.

Guard against ERR_PTR entries when iterating the action IDR so teardown
does not call tc_act_in_hw() on an error pointer.

<title>net/sched: act_mirred: Fix leak when redirecting to self on egress</title>

<id>urn:sha1:9892353726ad222219aa18c329e3a3636134dd56</id>
<content type='text'>
Whenever a mirred redirect to self on egress happens, mirred allocates a
new skb (skb_to_send). The loop to self check was done after that
allocation, but was not freeing the newly allocated skb, causing a leak.

Fix this by moving the if-statement to before the allocation of the new
skb.

The issue was found by running the accompanying tdc test in 2/2
with config kmemleak enabled.
After a few minutes the kmemleak thread ran and reported the leak coming from
mirred.

Fix a loop scenario of ethx:egress-&gt;ethx:egress

Example setup to reproduce:
tc qdisc add dev ethx root handle 1: drr
tc filter add dev ethx parent 1: protocol ip prio 1 matchall \
         action mirred egress redirect dev ethx

Now ping out of ethx and you get a deadlock:

<title>net/sched: ets: Remove drr class from the active list if it changes to strict</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b1e125ae425aba9b45252e933ca8df52a843ec70</id>
<content type='text'>
Whenever a user issues an ets qdisc change command, transforming a
drr class into a strict one, the ets code isn't checking whether that
class was in the active list and removing it. This means that, if a
user changes a strict class (which was in the active list) back to a drr
one, that class will be added twice to the active list [1].

Doing so with the following commands:

tc qdisc add dev lo root handle 1: ets bands 2 strict 1
tc qdisc add dev lo parent 1:2 handle 20: \
    tbf rate 8bit burst 100b latency 1s
tc filter add dev lo parent 1: basic classid 1:2
ping -c1 -W0.01 -s 56 127.0.0.1
tc qdisc change dev lo root handle 1: ets bands 2 strict 2
tc qdisc change dev lo root handle 1: ets bands 2 strict 1
ping -c1 -W0.01 -s 56 127.0.0.1

Will trigger the following splat with list debug turned on:

Fix this by always checking and removing an ets class from the active list
