2026-03-04net: consume xmit errors of GSO framesJakub Kicinski1-5/+18
[ Upstream commit 7aa767d0d3d04e50ae94e770db7db8197f666970 ] udpgro_frglist.sh and udpgro_bench.sh are the flakiest tests currently in NIPA. They fail in the same exact way, TCP GRO test stalls occasionally and the test gets killed after 10min. These tests use veth to simulate GRO. They attach a trivial ("return XDP_PASS;") XDP program to the veth to force TSO off and NAPI on. Digging into the failure mode we can see that the connection is completely stuck after a burst of drops. The sender's snd_nxt is at sequence number N [1], but the receiver claims to have received (rcv_nxt) up to N + 3 * MSS [2]. Last piece of the puzzle is that senders rtx queue is not empty (let's say the block in the rtx queue is at sequence number N - 4 * MSS [3]). In this state, sender sends a retransmission from the rtx queue with a single segment, and sequence numbers N-4*MSS:N-3*MSS [3]. Receiver sees it and responds with an ACK all the way up to N + 3 * MSS [2]. But sender will reject this ack as TCP_ACK_UNSENT_DATA because it has no recollection of ever sending data that far out [1]. And we are stuck. The root cause is the mess of the xmit return codes. veth returns an error when it can't xmit a frame. We end up with a loss event like this: ------------------------------------------------- | GSO super frame 1 | GSO super frame 2 | |-----------------------------------------------| | seg | seg | seg | seg | seg | seg | seg | seg | | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | ------------------------------------------------- x ok ok <ok>| ok ok ok <x> \\ snd_nxt "x" means packet lost by veth, and "ok" means it went thru. Since veth has TSO disabled in this test it sees individual segments. Segment 1 is on the retransmit queue and will be resent. So why did the sender not advance snd_nxt even tho it clearly did send up to seg 8? tcp_write_xmit() interprets the return code from the core to mean that data has not been sent at all. Since TCP deals with GSO super frames, not individual segment the crux of the problem is that loss of a single segment can be interpreted as loss of all. TCP only sees the last return code for the last segment of the GSO frame (in <> brackets in the diagram above). Of course for the problem to occur we need a setup or a device without a Qdisc. Otherwise Qdisc layer disconnects the protocol layer from the device errors completely. We have multiple ways to fix this. 1) make veth not return an error when it lost a packet. While this is what I think we did in the past, the issue keeps reappearing and it's annoying to debug. The game of whack a mole is not great. 2) fix the damn return codes We only talk about NETDEV_TX_OK and NETDEV_TX_BUSY in the documentation, so maybe we should make the return code from ndo_start_xmit() a boolean. I like that the most, but perhaps some ancient, not-really-networking protocol would suffer. 3) make TCP ignore the errors It is not entirely clear to me what benefit TCP gets from interpreting the result of ip_queue_xmit()? Specifically once the connection is established and we're pushing data - packet loss is just packet loss? 4) this fix Ignore the rc in the Qdisc-less+GSO case, since it's unreliable. We already always return OK in the TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS case. In the Qdisc-less case let's be a bit more conservative and only mask the GSO errors. This path is taken by non-IP-"networks" like CAN, MCTP etc, so we could regress some ancient thing. This is the simplest, but also maybe the hackiest fix? Similar fix has been proposed by Eric in the past but never committed because original reporter was working with an OOT driver and wasn't providing feedback (see Link).

2026-03-04net: add a common function to compute features for upper devicesHangbin Liu1-0/+88
[ Upstream commit 28098defc79fe7d29e6bfe4eb6312991f6bdc3d3 ] Some high level software drivers need to compute features from lower devices. But each has their own implementations and may lost some feature compute. Let's use one common function to compute features for kinds of these devices. The new helper uses the current bond implementation as the reference one, as the latter already handles all the relevant aspects: netdev features, TSO limits and dst retention.

2026-03-04net: Drop the lock in skb_may_tx_timestamp()Sebastian Andrzej Siewior1-5/+18
[ Upstream commit 983512f3a87fd8dc4c94dfa6b596b6e57df5aad7 ] skb_may_tx_timestamp() may acquire sock::sk_callback_lock. The lock must not be taken in IRQ context, only softirq is okay. A few drivers receive the timestamp via a dedicated interrupt and complete the TX timestamp from that handler. This will lead to a deadlock if the lock is already write-locked on the same CPU. Taking the lock can be avoided. The socket (pointed by the skb) will remain valid until the skb is released. The ->sk_socket and ->file member will be set to NULL once the user closes the socket which may happen before the timestamp arrives. If we happen to observe the pointer while the socket is closing but before the pointer is set to NULL then we may use it because both pointer (and the file's cred member) are RCU freed. Drop the lock. Use READ_ONCE() to obtain the individual pointer. Add a matching WRITE_ONCE() where the pointer are cleared.

[ Upstream commit 6557f1565d779851c4db9c488c49c05a47a6e72f ] While making some maps in Cilium read-only from the BPF side, we noticed that the bpf_xdp_store_bytes proto is incorrect. In particular, the verifier was throwing the following error: ; ret = ctx_store_bytes(ctx, l3_off + offsetof(struct iphdr, saddr), &nat->address, 4, 0); 635: (79) r1 = *(u64 *)(r10 -144) ; R1=ctx() R10=fp0 fp-144=ctx() 636: (b4) w2 = 26 ; R2=26 637: (b4) w4 = 4 ; R4=4 638: (b4) w5 = 0 ; R5=0 639: (85) call bpf_xdp_store_bytes#190 write into map forbidden, value_size=6 off=0 size=4 nat comes from a BPF_F_RDONLY_PROG map, so R3 is a PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE. The verifier checks the helper's memory access to R3 in check_mem_size_reg, as it reaches ARG_CONST_SIZE argument. The third argument has expected type ARG_PTR_TO_UNINIT_MEM, which includes the MEM_WRITE flag. The verifier thus checks for a BPF_WRITE access on R3. Given R3 points to a read-only map, the check fails. Conversely, ARG_PTR_TO_UNINIT_MEM can also lead to the helper reading from uninitialized memory. This patch simply fixes the expected argument type to match that of bpf_skb_store_bytes.

2026-02-27bpf, sockmap: Fix FIONREAD for sockmapJiayuan Chen1-0/+3
[ Upstream commit 929e30f9312514902133c45e51c79088421ab084 ] A socket using sockmap has its own independent receive queue: ingress_msg. This queue may contain data from its own protocol stack or from other sockets. Therefore, for sockmap, relying solely on copied_seq and rcv_nxt to calculate FIONREAD is not enough. This patch adds a new msg_tot_len field in the psock structure to record the data length in ingress_msg. Additionally, we implement new ioctl interfaces for TCP and UDP to intercept FIONREAD operations. Note that we intentionally do not include sk_receive_queue data in the FIONREAD result. Data in sk_receive_queue has not yet been processed by the BPF verdict program, and may be redirected to other sockets or dropped. Including it would create semantic ambiguity since this data may never be readable by the user. Unix and VSOCK sockets have similar issues, but fixing them is outside the scope of this patch as it would require more intrusive changes. Previous work by John Fastabend made some efforts towards FIONREAD support: commit e5c6de5fa025 ("bpf, sockmap: Incorrectly handling copied_seq") Although the current patch is based on the previous work by John Fastabend, it is acceptable for our Fixes tag to point to the same commit.

[ Upstream commit b40cc5adaa80e1471095a62d78233b611d7a558c ] A socket using sockmap has its own independent receive queue: ingress_msg. This queue may contain data from its own protocol stack or from other sockets. The issue is that when reading from ingress_msg, we update tp->copied_seq by default. However, if the data is not from its own protocol stack, tcp->rcv_nxt is not increased. Later, if we convert this socket to a native socket, reading from this socket may fail because copied_seq might be significantly larger than rcv_nxt. This fix also addresses the syzkaller-reported bug referenced in the Closes tag. This patch marks the skmsg objects in ingress_msg.

2026-02-27bpf: Fix memory access flags in helper prototypesZesen Liu1-10/+10
[ Upstream commit 802eef5afb1865bc5536a5302c068ba2215a1f72 ] After commit 37cce22dbd51 ("bpf: verifier: Refactor helper access type tracking"), the verifier started relying on the access type flags in helper function prototypes to perform memory access optimizations. Currently, several helper functions utilizing ARG_PTR_TO_MEM lack the corresponding MEM_RDONLY or MEM_WRITE flags. This omission causes the verifier to incorrectly assume that the buffer contents are unchanged across the helper call. Consequently, the verifier may optimize away subsequent reads based on this wrong assumption, leading to correctness issues. For bpf_get_stack_proto_raw_tp, the original MEM_RDONLY was incorrect since the helper writes to the buffer. Change it to ARG_PTR_TO_UNINIT_MEM which correctly indicates write access to potentially uninitialized memory. Similar issues were recently addressed for specific helpers in commit ac44dcc788b9 ("bpf: Fix verifier assumptions of bpf_d_path's output buffer") and commit 2eb7648558a7 ("bpf: Specify access type of bpf_sysctl_get_name args").

[ Upstream commit 5c2c3c38be396257a6a2e55bd601a12bb9781507 ] The udp GRO complete stage assumes that all the packets inserted the RX have the `encapsulation` flag zeroed. Such assumption is not true, as a few H/W NICs can set such flag when H/W offloading the checksum for an UDP encapsulated traffic, the tun driver can inject GSO packets with UDP encapsulation and the problematic layout can also be created via a veth based setup. Due to the above, in the problematic scenarios, udp4_gro_complete() uses the wrong network offset (inner instead of outer) to compute the outer UDP header pseudo checksum, leading to csum validation errors later on in packet processing. Address the issue always clearing the encapsulation flag at GRO completion time. Such flag will be set again as needed for encapsulated packets by udp_gro_complete().

[ Upstream commit f613e8b4afea0cd17c7168e8b00e25bc8d33175d ] Yin Fengwei reported an RCU stall in ptype_seq_show() and provided a patch. Real issue is that ptype_seq_next() and ptype_seq_show() violate RCU rules. ptype_seq_show() runs under rcu_read_lock(), and reads pt->dev to get device name without any barrier. At the same time, concurrent writers can remove a packet_type structure (which is correctly freed after an RCU grace period) and clear pt->dev without an RCU grace period. Define ptype_iter_state to carry a dev pointer along seq_net_private: struct ptype_iter_state { struct seq_net_private p; struct net_device *dev; // added in this patch }; We need to record the device pointer in ptype_get_idx() and ptype_seq_next() so that ptype_seq_show() is safe against concurrent pt->dev changes. We also need to add full RCU protection in ptype_seq_next(). (Missing READ_ONCE() when reading list.next values) Many thanks to Dong Chenchen for providing a repro.

2026-02-11linkwatch: use __dev_put() in callers to prevent UAFJiayuan Chen1-5/+15
[ Upstream commit 83b67cc9be9223183caf91826d9c194d7fb128fa ] After linkwatch_do_dev() calls __dev_put() to release the linkwatch reference, the device refcount may drop to 1. At this point, netdev_run_todo() can proceed (since linkwatch_sync_dev() sees an empty list and returns without blocking), wait for the refcount to become 1 via netdev_wait_allrefs_any(), and then free the device via kobject_put(). This creates a use-after-free when __linkwatch_run_queue() tries to call netdev_unlock_ops() on the already-freed device. Note that adding netdev_lock_ops()/netdev_unlock_ops() pair in netdev_run_todo() before kobject_put() would not work, because netdev_lock_ops() is conditional - it only locks when netdev_need_ops_lock() returns true. If the device doesn't require ops_lock, linkwatch won't hold any lock, and netdev_run_todo() acquiring the lock won't provide synchronization. Fix this by moving __dev_put() from linkwatch_do_dev() to its callers. The device reference logically pairs with de-listing the device, so it's reasonable for the caller that did the de-listing to release it. This allows placing __dev_put() after all device accesses are complete, preventing UAF. The bug can be reproduced by adding mdelay(2000) after linkwatch_do_dev() in __linkwatch_run_queue(), then running: ip tuntap add mode tun name tun_test ip link set tun_test up ip link set tun_test carrier off ip link set tun_test carrier on sleep 0.5 ip tuntap del mode tun name tun_test KASAN report: ================================================================== BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in netdev_need_ops_lock include/net/netdev_lock.h:33 [inline] BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in netdev_unlock_ops include/net/netdev_lock.h:47 [inline] BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in __linkwatch_run_queue+0x865/0x8a0 net/core/link_watch.c:245 Read of size 8 at addr ffff88804de5c008 by task kworker/u32:10/8123 CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 8123 Comm: kworker/u32:10 Not tainted syzkaller #0 PREEMPT(full) Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.16.3-debian-1.16.3-2 04/01/2014 Workqueue: events_unbound linkwatch_event Call Trace: <TASK> __dump_stack lib/dump_stack.c:94 [inline] dump_stack_lvl+0x100/0x190 lib/dump_stack.c:120 print_address_description mm/kasan/report.c:378 [inline] print_report+0x156/0x4c9 mm/kasan/report.c:482 kasan_report+0xdf/0x1a0 mm/kasan/report.c:595 netdev_need_ops_lock include/net/netdev_lock.h:33 [inline] netdev_unlock_ops include/net/netdev_lock.h:47 [inline] __linkwatch_run_queue+0x865/0x8a0 net/core/link_watch.c:245 linkwatch_event+0x8f/0xc0 net/core/link_watch.c:304 process_one_work+0x9c2/0x1840 kernel/workqueue.c:3257 process_scheduled_works kernel/workqueue.c:3340 [inline] worker_thread+0x5da/0xe40 kernel/workqueue.c:3421 kthread+0x3b3/0x730 kernel/kthread.c:463 ret_from_fork+0x754/0xaf0 arch/x86/kernel/process.c:158 ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30 arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:246 </TASK> ================================================================== Fixes: 04efcee6ef8d ("net: hold instance lock during NETDEV_CHANGE") Reported-by: syzbot+1ec2f6a450f0b54af8c8@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/6824d064.a70a0220.3e9d8.001a.GAE@google.com/T/ Signed-off-by: Jiayuan Chen <jiayuan.chen@shopee.com> Signed-off-by: Jiayuan Chen <jiayuan.chen@linux.dev> Reviewed-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260201135915.393451-1-jiayuan.chen@linux.dev Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>

2026-02-06net: fix segmentation of forwarding fraglist GROJibin Zhang1-0/+2
commit 426ca15c7f6cb6562a081341ca88893a50c59fa2 upstream. This patch enhances GSO segment handling by properly checking the SKB_GSO_DODGY flag for frag_list GSO packets, addressing low throughput issues observed when a station accesses IPv4 servers via hotspots with an IPv6-only upstream interface. Specifically, it fixes a bug in GSO segmentation when forwarding GRO packets containing a frag_list. The function skb_segment_list cannot correctly process GRO skbs that have been converted by XLAT, since XLAT only translates the header of the head skb. Consequently, skbs in the frag_list may remain untranslated, resulting in protocol inconsistencies and reduced throughput. To address this, the patch explicitly sets the SKB_GSO_DODGY flag for GSO packets in XLAT's IPv4/IPv6 protocol translation helpers (bpf_skb_proto_4_to_6 and bpf_skb_proto_6_to_4). This marks GSO packets as potentially modified after protocol translation. As a result, GSO segmentation will avoid using skb_segment_list and instead falls back to skb_segment for packets with the SKB_GSO_DODGY flag. This ensures that only safe and fully translated frag_list packets are processed by skb_segment_list, resolving protocol inconsistencies and improving throughput when forwarding GRO packets converted by XLAT.

2026-01-23dst: fix races in rt6_uncached_list_del() and rt_del_uncached_list()Eric Dumazet1-0/+1
[ Upstream commit 9a6f0c4d5796ab89b5a28a890ce542344d58bd69 ] syzbot was able to crash the kernel in rt6_uncached_list_flush_dev() in an interesting way [1] Crash happens in list_del_init()/INIT_LIST_HEAD() while writing list->prev, while the prior write on list->next went well. static inline void INIT_LIST_HEAD(struct list_head *list) { WRITE_ONCE(list->next, list); // This went well WRITE_ONCE(list->prev, list); // Crash, @list has been freed. } Issue here is that rt6_uncached_list_del() did not attempt to lock ul->lock, as list_empty(&rt->dst.rt_uncached) returned true because the WRITE_ONCE(list->next, list) happened on the other CPU. We might use list_del_init_careful() and list_empty_careful(), or make sure rt6_uncached_list_del() always grabs the spinlock whenever rt->dst.rt_uncached_list has been set. A similar fix is neeed for IPv4.

2026-01-17net: fix memory leak in skb_segment_list for GRO packetsMohammad Heib1-3/+5
[ Upstream commit 238e03d0466239410b72294b79494e43d4fabe77 ] When skb_segment_list() is called during packet forwarding, it handles packets that were aggregated by the GRO engine. Historically, the segmentation logic in skb_segment_list assumes that individual segments are split from a parent SKB and may need to carry their own socket memory accounting. Accordingly, the code transfers truesize from the parent to the newly created segments. Prior to commit ed4cccef64c1 ("gro: fix ownership transfer"), this truesize subtraction in skb_segment_list() was valid because fragments still carry a reference to the original socket. However, commit ed4cccef64c1 ("gro: fix ownership transfer") changed this behavior by ensuring that fraglist entries are explicitly orphaned (skb->sk = NULL) to prevent illegal orphaning later in the stack. This change meant that the entire socket memory charge remained with the head SKB, but the corresponding accounting logic in skb_segment_list() was never updated. As a result, the current code unconditionally adds each fragment's truesize to delta_truesize and subtracts it from the parent SKB. Since the fragments are no longer charged to the socket, this subtraction results in an effective under-count of memory when the head is freed. This causes sk_wmem_alloc to remain non-zero, preventing socket destruction and leading to a persistent memory leak. The leak can be observed via KMEMLEAK when tearing down the networking environment: unreferenced object 0xffff8881e6eb9100 (size 2048): comm "ping", pid 6720, jiffies 4295492526 backtrace: kmem_cache_alloc_noprof+0x5c6/0x800 sk_prot_alloc+0x5b/0x220 sk_alloc+0x35/0xa00 inet6_create.part.0+0x303/0x10d0 __sock_create+0x248/0x640 __sys_socket+0x11b/0x1d0 Since skb_segment_list() is exclusively used for SKB_GSO_FRAGLIST packets constructed by GRO, the truesize adjustment is removed. The call to skb_release_head_state() must be preserved. As documented in commit cf673ed0e057 ("net: fix fraglist segmentation reference count leak"), it is still required to correctly drop references to SKB extensions that may be overwritten during __copy_skb_header().

2026-01-17net: sock: fix hardened usercopy panic in sock_recv_errqueueWeiming Shi1-3/+4
[ Upstream commit 2a71a1a8d0ed718b1c7a9ac61f07e5755c47ae20 ] skbuff_fclone_cache was created without defining a usercopy region, [1] unlike skbuff_head_cache which properly whitelists the cb[] field. [2] This causes a usercopy BUG() when CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY is enabled and the kernel attempts to copy sk_buff.cb data to userspace via sock_recv_errqueue() -> put_cmsg(). The crash occurs when: 1. TCP allocates an skb using alloc_skb_fclone() (from skbuff_fclone_cache) [1] 2. The skb is cloned via skb_clone() using the pre-allocated fclone [3] 3. The cloned skb is queued to sk_error_queue for timestamp reporting 4.

[ Upstream commit e5235eb6cfe02a51256013a78f7b28779a7740d5 ] Prevent a kernel warning when netconsole setup fails on devices with IFF_DISABLE_NETPOLL flag. The warning (at kernel/workqueue.c:4242 in __flush_work) occurs because the cleanup path tries to cancel an uninitialized work queue. When __netpoll_setup() encounters a device with IFF_DISABLE_NETPOLL, it fails early and calls skb_pool_flush() for cleanup. This function calls cancel_work_sync(&np->refill_wq), but refill_wq hasn't been initialized yet, triggering the warning. Move INIT_WORK() to the beginning of __netpoll_setup(), ensuring the work queue is properly initialized before any potential failure points. This allows the cleanup path to safely cancel the work queue regardless of where the setup fails.

2025-12-18bpf: Do not let BPF test infra emit invalid GSO types to stackDaniel Borkmann1-0/+7
[ Upstream commit 04a899573fb87273a656f178b5f920c505f68875 ] Yinhao et al. reported that their fuzzer tool was able to trigger a skb_warn_bad_offload() from netif_skb_features() -> gso_features_check(). When a BPF program - triggered via BPF test infra - pushes the packet to the loopback device via bpf_clone_redirect() then mentioned offload warning can be seen. GSO-related features are then rightfully disabled. We get into this situation due to convert___skb_to_skb() setting gso_segs and gso_size but not gso_type. Technically, it makes sense that this warning triggers since the GSO properties are malformed due to the gso_type. Potentially, the gso_type could be marked non-trustworthy through setting it at least to SKB_GSO_DODGY without any other specific assumptions, but that also feels wrong given we should not go further into the GSO engine in the first place. The checks were added in 121d57af308d ("gso: validate gso_type in GSO handlers") because there were malicious (syzbot) senders that combine a protocol with a non-matching gso_type. If we would want to drop such packets, gso_features_check() currently only returns feature flags via netif_skb_features(), so one location for potentially dropping such skbs could be validate_xmit_unreadable_skb(), but then otoh it would be an additional check in the fast-path for a very corner case. Given bpf_clone_redirect() is the only place where BPF test infra could emit such packets, lets reject them right there.

2025-11-14net: core: prevent NULL deref in generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower()Jiaming Zhang1-0/+3
The ethtool tsconfig Netlink path can trigger a null pointer dereference. A call chain such as: tsconfig_prepare_data() -> dev_get_hwtstamp_phylib() -> vlan_hwtstamp_get() -> generic_hwtstamp_get_lower() -> generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower() results in generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower() being called with kernel_cfg->ifr as NULL. The generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower() function does not expect a NULL ifr and dereferences it, leading to a system crash. Fix this by adding a NULL check for kernel_cfg->ifr in generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower(). If ifr is NULL, return -EINVAL.

2025-11-11net: netpoll: fix incorrect refcount handling causing incorrect cleanupBreno Leitao1-2/+5
commit efa95b01da18 ("netpoll: fix use after free") incorrectly ignored the refcount and prematurely set dev->npinfo to NULL during netpoll cleanup, leading to improper behavior and memory leaks. Scenario causing lack of proper cleanup: 1) A netpoll is associated with a NIC (e.g., eth0) and netdev->npinfo is allocated, and refcnt = 1 - Keep in mind that npinfo is shared among all netpoll instances. In this case, there is just one. 2) Another netpoll is also associated with the same NIC and npinfo->refcnt += 1. - Now dev->npinfo->refcnt = 2; - There is just one npinfo associated to the netdev. 3) When the first netpolls goes to clean up: - The first cleanup succeeds and clears np->dev->npinfo, ignoring refcnt. - It basically calls `RCU_INIT_POINTER(np->dev->npinfo, NULL);` - Set dev->npinfo = NULL, without proper cleanup - No ->ndo_netpoll_cleanup() is either called 4) Now the second target tries to clean up - The second cleanup fails because np->dev->npinfo is already NULL. * In this case, ops->ndo_netpoll_cleanup() was never called, and the skb pool is not cleaned as well (for the second netpoll instance) - This leaks npinfo and skbpool skbs, which is clearly reported by kmemleak. Revert commit efa95b01da18 ("netpoll: fix use after free") and adds clarifying comments emphasizing that npinfo cleanup should only happen once the refcount reaches zero, ensuring stable and correct netpoll behavior.

2025-11-06net: gro_cells: Reduce lock scope in gro_cell_pollSebastian Andrzej Siewior1-2/+2
One GRO-cell device's NAPI callback can nest into the GRO-cell of another device if the underlying device is also using GRO-cell. This is the case for IPsec over vxlan. These two GRO-cells are separate devices. From lockdep's point of view it is the same because each device is sharing the same lock class and so it reports a possible deadlock assuming one device is nesting into itself. Hold the bh_lock only while accessing gro_cell::napi_skbs in gro_cell_poll(). This reduces the locking scope and avoids acquiring the same lock class multiple times.

2025-11-05netpoll: Fix deadlock in memory allocation under spinlockBreno Leitao1-5/+2
Fix a AA deadlock in refill_skbs() where memory allocation while holding skb_pool->lock can trigger a recursive lock acquisition attempt. The deadlock scenario occurs when the system is under severe memory pressure: 1. refill_skbs() acquires skb_pool->lock (spinlock) 2. alloc_skb() is called while holding the lock 3. Memory allocator fails and calls slab_out_of_memory() 4. This triggers printk() for the OOM warning 5. The console output path calls netpoll_send_udp() 6. netpoll_send_udp() attempts to acquire the same skb_pool->lock 7. Deadlock: the lock is already held by the same CPU Call stack: refill_skbs() spin_lock_irqsave(&skb_pool->lock) <- lock acquired __alloc_skb() kmem_cache_alloc_node_noprof() slab_out_of_memory() printk() console_flush_all() netpoll_send_udp() skb_dequeue() spin_lock_irqsave(&skb_pool->lock) <- deadlock attempt This bug was exposed by commit 248f6571fd4c51 ("netpoll: Optimize skb refilling on critical path") which removed refill_skbs() from the critical path (where nested printk was being deferred), letting nested printk being called from inside refill_skbs() Refactor refill_skbs() to never allocate memory while holding the spinlock. Another possible solution to fix this problem is protecting the refill_skbs() from nested printks, basically calling printk_deferred_{enter,exit}() in refill_skbs(), then, any nested pr_warn() would be deferred. I prefer this approach, given I _think_ it might be a good idea to move the alloc_skb() from GFP_ATOMIC to GFP_KERNEL in the future, so, having the alloc_skb() outside of the lock will be necessary step. There is a possible TOCTOU issue when checking for the pool length, and queueing the new allocated skb, but, this is not an issue, given that an extra SKB in the pool is harmless and it will be eventually used.

2025-10-30net: devmem: refresh devmem TX dst in case of route invalidationShivaji Kant1-3/+24
The zero-copy Device Memory (Devmem) transmit path relies on the socket's route cache (`dst_entry`) to validate that the packet is being sent via the network device to which the DMA buffer was bound. However, this check incorrectly fails and returns `-ENODEV` if the socket's route cache entry (`dst`) is merely missing or expired (`dst == NULL`). This scenario is observed during network events, such as when flow steering rules are deleted, leading to a temporary route cache invalidation. This patch fixes -ENODEV error for `net_devmem_get_binding()` by doing the following: 1. It attempts to rebuild the route via `rebuild_header()` if the route is initially missing (`dst == NULL`). This allows the TCP/IP stack to recover from transient route cache misses. 2. It uses `rcu_read_lock()` and `dst_dev_rcu()` to safely access the network device pointer (`dst_dev`) from the route, preventing use-after-free conditions if the device is concurrently removed. 3. It maintains the critical safety check by validating that the retrieved destination device (`dst_dev`) is exactly the device registered in the Devmem binding (`binding->dev`). These changes prevent unnecessary ENODEV failures while maintaining the critical safety requirement that the Devmem resources are only used on the bound network device.

2025-10-23net: datagram: introduce datagram_poll_queue for custom receive queuesRalf Lici1-10/+34
Some protocols using TCP encapsulation (e.g., espintcp, openvpn) deliver userspace-bound packets through a custom skb queue rather than the standard sk_receive_queue. Introduce datagram_poll_queue that accepts an explicit receive queue, and convert datagram_poll into a wrapper around datagram_poll_queue. This allows protocols with custom skb queues to reuse the core polling logic without relying on sk_receive_queue.

Creating FDB entries is possible from a non-initial user namespace when having CAP_NET_ADMIN, yet, when deleting FDB entries, processes receive an EPERM because the capability is always checked against the initial user namespace. This restricts the FDB management from unprivileged containers. Drop the netlink_capable check in rtnl_fdb_del as it was originally dropped in c5c351088ae7 and reintroduced in 1690be63a27b without intention.

Cilium has a BPF egress gateway feature which forces outgoing K8s Pod traffic to pass through dedicated egress gateways which then SNAT the traffic in order to interact with stable IPs outside the cluster. The traffic is directed to the gateway via vxlan tunnel in collect md mode. A recent BPF change utilized the bpf_redirect_neigh() helper to forward packets after the arrival and decap on vxlan, which turned out over time that the kmalloc-256 slab usage in kernel was ever-increasing. The issue was that vxlan allocates the metadata_dst object and attaches it through a fake dst entry to the skb. The latter was never released though given bpf_redirect_neigh() was merely setting the new dst entry via skb_dst_set() without dropping an existing one first.

2025-10-06page_pool: Fix PP_MAGIC_MASK to avoid crashing on some 32-bit archesToke Høiland-Jørgensen1-23/+53
Helge reported that the introduction of PP_MAGIC_MASK let to crashes on boot on his 32-bit parisc machine. The cause of this is the mask is set too wide, so the page_pool_page_is_pp() incurs false positives which crashes the machine. Just disabling the check in page_pool_is_pp() will lead to the page_pool code itself malfunctioning; so instead of doing this, this patch changes the define for PP_DMA_INDEX_BITS to avoid mistaking arbitrary kernel pointers for page_pool-tagged pages. The fix relies on the kernel pointers that alias with the pp_magic field always being above PAGE_OFFSET. With this assumption, we can use the lowest bit of the value of PAGE_OFFSET as the upper bound of the PP_DMA_INDEX_MASK, which should avoid the false positives. Because we cannot rely on PAGE_OFFSET always being a compile-time constant, nor on it always being >0, we fall back to disabling the dma_index storage when there are not enough bits available. This leaves us in the situation we were in before the patch in the Fixes tag, but only on a subset of architecture configurations. This seems to be the best we can do until the transition to page types in complete for page_pool pages. v2: - Make sure there's at least 8 bits available and that the PAGE_OFFSET bit calculation doesn't wrap Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/aMNJMFa5fDalFmtn@p100/ Fixes: ee62ce7a1d90 ("page_pool: Track DMA-mapped pages and unmap them when destroying the pool") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 6.15+ Tested-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Toke Høiland-Jørgensen <toke@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Mina Almasry <almasrymina@google.com> Tested-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250930114331.675412-1-toke@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

2025-09-30net: use llist for sd->defer_listEric Dumazet2-20/+13
Get rid of sd->defer_lock and adopt llist operations. We optimize skb_attempt_defer_free() for the common case, where the packet is queued. Otherwise sd->defer_count is increasing, until skb_defer_free_flush() clears it.

2025-09-30netdevsim: a basic test PSP implementationJakub Kicinski1-0/+1
Provide a PSP implementation for netdevsim. Use psp_dev_encapsulate() and psp_dev_rcv() to do actual encapsulation and decapsulation on skbs, but perform no encryption or decryption. In order to make encryption with a bad key result in a drop on the peer's rx side, we stash our psd's generation number in the first byte of each key before handing to the peer.

2025-09-30page_pool: Clamp pool size to max 16K pagesDragos Tatulea1-5/+1
page_pool_init() returns E2BIG when the page_pool size goes above 32K pages. As some drivers are configuring the page_pool size according to the MTU and ring size, there are cases where this limit is exceeded and the queue creation fails. The page_pool size doesn't have to cover a full queue, especially for larger ring size. So clamp the size instead of returning an error. Do this in the core to avoid having each driver do the clamping. The current limit was deemed to high [1] so it was reduced to 16K to avoid page waste.
