975840f8de Remove DECnet support from kernel
commit 1202cdd665 upstream.

DECnet is an obsolete network protocol that receives more attention
from kernel janitors than users. It belongs in computer protocol
history museum not in Linux kernel.

It has been "Orphaned" in kernel since 2010. The iproute2 support
for DECnet was dropped in 5.0 release. The documentation link on
Sourceforge says it is abandoned there as well.

Leave the UAPI alone to keep userspace programs compiling.
This means that there is still an empty neighbour table
for AF_DECNET.

The table of /proc/sys/net entries was updated to match
current directories and reformatted to be alphabetical.

f5d0092bc5 bonding: fix ad_actor_system option setting to default
[ Upstream commit 1c15b05bae ]

When 802.3ad bond mode is configured the ad_actor_system option is set to
"00:00:00:00:00:00". But when trying to set the all-zeroes MAC as actors'
system address it was failing with EINVAL.

An all-zeroes ethernet address is valid, only multicast addresses are not
valid values.

[ Upstream commit b38e7819ca ]

Keyu Man reported that the ICMP rate limiter could be used
by attackers to get useful signal. Details will be provided
in an upcoming academic publication.

Our solution is to add some noise, so that the attackers
no longer can get help from the predictable token bucket limiter.

cd6f35b842 tcp: add tcp_min_snd_mss sysctl
commit 5f3e2bf008 upstream.

Some TCP peers announce a very small MSS option in their SYN and/or
SYN/ACK messages.

This forces the stack to send packets with a very high network/cpu
overhead.

Linux has enforced a minimal value of 48. Since this value includes
the size of TCP options, and that the options can consume up to 40
bytes, this means that each segment can include only 8 bytes of payload.

In some cases, it can be useful to increase the minimal value
to a saner value.

We still let the default to 48 (TCP_MIN_SND_MSS), for compatibility
reasons.

Note that TCP_MAXSEG socket option enforces a minimal value
of (TCP_MIN_MSS). David Miller increased this minimal value
in commit c39508d6f1 ("tcp: Make TCP_MAXSEG minimum more correct.")
from 64 to 88.

We might in the future merge TCP_MIN_SND_MSS and TCP_MIN_MSS.

990204ddc5 inet: frags: break the 2GB limit for frags storage
Some users are willing to provision huge amounts of memory to be able
to perform reassembly reasonnably well under pressure.

Current memory tracking is using one atomic_t and integers.

Switch to atomic_long_t so that 64bit arches can use more than 2GB,
without any cost for 32bit arches.

Note that this patch avoids an overflow error, if high_thresh was set
to ~2GB, since this test in inet_frag_alloc() was never true :

if (... || frag_mem_limit(nf) > nf->high_thresh)

Tested:

$ echo 16000000000 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ipfrag_high_thresh

<frag DDOS>

$ grep FRAG /proc/net/sockstat
FRAG: inuse 14705885 memory 16000002880

9aee41eff7 inet: frags: use rhashtables for reassembly units
Some applications still rely on IP fragmentation, and to be fair linux
reassembly unit is not working under any serious load.

It uses static hash tables of 1024 buckets, and up to 128 items per bucket (!!!)

A work queue is supposed to garbage collect items when host is under memory
pressure, and doing a hash rebuild, changing seed used in hash computations.

This work queue blocks softirqs for up to 25 ms when doing a hash rebuild,
occurring every 5 seconds if host is under fire.

Then there is the problem of sharing this hash table for all netns.

It is time to switch to rhashtables, and allocate one of them per netns
to speedup netns dismantle, since this is a critical metric these days.

Lookup is now using RCU. A followup patch will even remove
the refcount hold/release left from prior implementation and save
a couple of atomic operations.

Before this patch, 16 cpus (16 RX queue NIC) could not handle more
than 1 Mpps frags DDOS.

After the patch, I reach 9 Mpps without any tuning, and can use up to 2GB
of storage for the fragments (exact number depends on frags being evicted
after timeout)

$ grep FRAG /proc/net/sockstat
FRAG: inuse 1966916 memory 2140004608

A followup patch will change the limits for 64bit arches.

35e015e1f5 ipv6: fix net.ipv6.conf.all interface DAD handlers
Currently, writing into
net.ipv6.conf.all.{accept_dad,use_optimistic,optimistic_dad} has no effect.
Fix handling of these flags by:

- using the maximum of global and per-interface values for the
  accept_dad flag. That is, if at least one of the two values is
  non-zero, enable DAD on the interface. If at least one value is
  set to 2, enable DAD and disable IPv6 operation on the interface if
  MAC-based link-local address was found

- using the logical OR of global and per-interface values for the
  optimistic_dad flag. If at least one of them is set to one, optimistic
  duplicate address detection (RFC 4429) is enabled on the interface

- using the logical OR of global and per-interface values for the
  use_optimistic flag. If at least one of them is set to one,
  optimistic addresses won't be marked as deprecated during source address
  selection on the interface.

While at it, as we're modifying the prototype for ipv6_use_optimistic_addr(),
drop inline, and let the compiler decide.

====================
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.

eaa72dc474 neigh: increase queue_len_bytes to match wmem_default
Florian reported UDP xmit drops that could be root caused to the
too small neigh limit.

Current limit is 64 KB, meaning that even a single UDP socket would hit
it, since its default sk_sndbuf comes from net.core.wmem_default
(~212992 bytes on 64bit arches).

Once ARP/ND resolution is in progress, we should allow a little more
packets to be queued, at least for one producer.

Once neigh arp_queue is filled, a rogue socket should hit its sk_sndbuf
limit and either block in sendmsg() or return -EAGAIN.

c038a58ccf rxrpc: Allow failed client calls to be retried
Allow a client call that failed on network error to be retried, provided
that the Tx queue still holds DATA packet 1.  This allows an operation to
be submitted to another server or another address for the same server
without having to repackage and re-encrypt the data so far processed.

Two new functions are provided:

 (1) rxrpc_kernel_check_call() - This is used to find out the completion
     state of a call to guess whether it can be retried and whether it
     should be retried.

 (2) rxrpc_kernel_retry_call() - Disconnect the call from its current
     connection, reset the state and submit it as a new client call to a
     new address.  The new address need not match the previous address.

A call may be retried even if all the data hasn't been loaded into it yet;
a partially constructed will be retained at the same point it was at when
an error condition was detected.  msg_data_left() can be used to find out
how much data was packaged before the error occurred.

Add a callback to rxrpc_kernel_send_data() so that a kernel service can get
a notification that the AF_RXRPC call has transitioned out the Tx phase and
is now waiting for a reply or a final ACK.

This is called from AF_RXRPC with the call state lock held so the
notification is guaranteed to come before any reply is passed back.

Further, modify the AFS filesystem to make use of this so that we don't have
to change the afs_call state before sending the last bit of data.

3fd8712707 strparser: initialize all callbacks
commit bbb03029a8 ("strparser: Generalize strparser") added more
function pointers to 'struct strp_callbacks'; however, kcm_attach() was
not updated to initialize them.  This could cause the ->lock() and/or
->unlock() function pointers to be set to garbage values, causing a
crash in strp_work().

Fix the bug by moving the callback structs into static memory, so
unspecified members are zeroed.  Also constify them while we're at it.

This bug was found by syzkaller, which encountered the following splat:

22b6722bfa ipv6: Add sysctl for per namespace flow label reflection
Reflecting IPv6 Flow Label at server nodes is useful in environments
that employ multipath routing to load balance the requests. As "IPv6
Flow Label Reflection" standard draft [1] points out - ICMPv6 PTB error
messages generated in response to a downstream packets from the server
can be routed by a load balancer back to the original server without
looking at transport headers, if the server applies the flow label
reflection. This enables the Path MTU Discovery past the ECMP router in
load-balance or anycast environments where each server node is reachable
by only one path.

Introduce a sysctl to enable flow label reflection per net namespace for
all newly created sockets. Same could be earlier achieved only per
socket by setting the IPV6_FL_F_REFLECT flag for the IPV6_FLOWLABEL_MGR
socket option.

92b31a9af7 bpf: add BPF_J{LT,LE,SLT,SLE} instructions
Currently, eBPF only understands BPF_JGT (>), BPF_JGE (>=),
BPF_JSGT (s>), BPF_JSGE (s>=) instructions, this means that
particularly *JLT/*JLE counterparts involving immediates need
to be rewritten from e.g. X < [IMM] by swapping arguments into
[IMM] > X, meaning the immediate first is required to be loaded
into a register Y := [IMM], such that then we can compare with
Y > X. Note that the destination operand is always required to
be a register.

This has the downside of having unnecessarily increased register
pressure, meaning complex program would need to spill other
registers temporarily to stack in order to obtain an unused
register for the [IMM]. Loading to registers will thus also
affect state pruning since we need to account for that register
use and potentially those registers that had to be spilled/filled
again. As a consequence slightly more stack space might have
been used due to spilling, and BPF programs are a bit longer
due to extra code involving the register load and potentially
required spill/fills.

Thus, add BPF_JLT (<), BPF_JLE (<=), BPF_JSLT (s<), BPF_JSLE (s<=)
counterparts to the eBPF instruction set. Modifying LLVM to
remove the NegateCC() workaround in a PoC patch at [1] and
allowing it to also emit the new instructions resulted in
cilium's BPF programs that are injected into the fast-path to
have a reduced program length in the range of 2-3% (e.g.
accumulated main and tail call sections from one of the object
file reduced from 4864 to 4729 insns), reduced complexity in
the range of 10-30% (e.g. accumulated sections reduced in one
of the cases from 116432 to 88428 insns), and reduced stack
usage in the range of 1-5% (e.g. accumulated sections from one
of the object files reduced from 824 to 784b).

The modification for LLVM will be incorporated in a backwards
compatible way. Plan is for LLVM to have i) a target specific
option to offer a possibility to explicitly enable the extension
by the user (as we have with -m target specific extensions today
for various CPU insns), and ii) have the kernel checked for
presence of the extensions and enable them transparently when
the user is selecting more aggressive options such as -march=native
in a bpf target context. (Other frontends generating BPF byte
code, e.g. ply can probe the kernel directly for its code
generation.)

bbb03029a8 strparser: Generalize strparser
Generalize strparser from more than just being used in conjunction
with read_sock. strparser will also be used in the send path with
zero proxy. The primary change is to create strp_process function
that performs the critical processing on skbs. The documentation
is also updated to reflect the new uses.

4d3a57f23d netfilter: conntrack: do not enable connection tracking unless needed
Discussion during NFWS 2017 in Faro has shown that the current
conntrack behaviour is unreasonable.

Even if conntrack module is loaded on behalf of a single net namespace,
its turned on for all namespaces, which is expensive.  Commit
481fa37347 ("netfilter: conntrack: add nf_conntrack_default_on sysctl")
attempted to provide an alternative to the 'default on' behaviour by
adding a sysctl to change it.

However, as Eric points out, the sysctl only becomes available
once the module is loaded, and then its too late.

So we either have to move the sysctl to the core, or, alternatively,
change conntrack to become active only once the rule set requires this.

This does the latter, conntrack is only enabled when a rule needs it.

3c2a89ddc1 net: xfrm: revert to lower xfrm dst gc limit
revert c386578f1c ("xfrm: Let the flowcache handle its size by default.").

Once we remove flow cache, we don't have a flow cache limit anymore.
We must not allow (virtually) unlimited allocations of xfrm dst entries.
Revert back to the old xfrm dst gc limits.

5e34fa23ce net: Fix minor code bug in timestamping.txt
Passing (void*)val instead of &val would make a pointer out of an integer
and cause sock_setsockopt to -EFAULT.

See tools/testing/selftests/networking/timestamping/timestamping.c
for a working example.
