5f3e2bf008 tcp: add tcp_min_snd_mss sysctl
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.

CVE-2019-11479 -- tcp mss hardcoded to 48

ede61ca474 tcp: add tcp_rx_skb_cache sysctl
Instead of relying on rps_needed, it is safer to use a separate
static key, since we do not want to enable TCP rx_skb_cache
by default. This feature can cause huge increase of memory
usage on hosts with millions of sockets.

Daniel Borkmann says:

====================
pull-request: bpf 2019-06-07

The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net* tree.

The main changes are:

1) Fix several bugs in riscv64 JIT code emission which forgot to clear high
   32-bits for alu32 ops, from Björn and Luke with selftests covering all
   relevant BPF alu ops from Björn and Jiong.

2) Two fixes for UDP BPF reuseport that avoid calling the program in case of
   __udp6_lib_err and UDP GRO which broke reuseport_select_sock() assumption
   that skb->data is pointing to transport header, from Martin.

3) Two fixes for BPF sockmap: a use-after-free from sleep in psock's backlog
   workqueue, and a missing restore of sk_write_space when psock gets dropped,
   from Jakub and John.

4) Fix unconnected UDP sendmsg hook API which is insufficient as-is since it
   breaks standard applications like DNS if reverse NAT is not performed upon
   receive, from Daniel.

5) Fix an out-of-bounds read in __bpf_skc_lookup which in case of AF_INET6
   fails to verify that the length of the tuple is long enough, from Lorenz.

6) Fix libbpf's libbpf__probe_raw_btf to return an fd instead of 0/1 (for
   {un,}successful probe) as that is expected to be propagated as an fd to
   load_sk_storage_btf() and thus closing the wrong descriptor otherwise,
   from Michal.

7) Fix bpftool's JSON output for the case when a lookup fails, from Krzesimir.

8) Minor misc fixes in docs, samples and selftests, from various others.

f42c104f2e Documentation: add TLS offload documentation
Describe existing kernel TLS offload (added back in Linux 4.19) -
the mechanism, the expected behavior and the notable corner cases.

This documentation is mostly targeting hardware vendors who want
to implement offload, to ensure consistency between implementations.

v2:
 - add emphasis around TLS_SW/TLS_HW/TLS_HW_RECORD;
 - remove mentions of ongoing work (Boris);
 - split the flow of data in SW vs. HW cases in TX overview
   (Boris);
 - call out which fields are updated by the device and which
   are filled by the stack (Boris);
 - move error handling into it's own section (Boris);
 - add more words about fallback (Boris);
 - note that checksum validation is required (Alexei);
 - note that drivers shouldn't pay attention to the TLS
   device features.

b960a34b73 rxrpc: Allow the kernel to mark a call as being non-interruptible
Allow kernel services using AF_RXRPC to indicate that a call should be
non-interruptible.  This allows kafs to make things like lock-extension and
writeback data storage calls non-interruptible.

If this is set, signals will be ignored for operations on that call where
possible - such as waiting to get a call channel on an rxrpc connection.

It doesn't prevent UDP sendmsg from being interrupted, but that will be
handled by packet retransmission.

rxrpc_kernel_recv_data() isn't affected by this since that never waits,
preferring instead to return -EAGAIN and leave the waiting to the caller.

Userspace initiated calls can't be set to be uninterruptible at this time.

0bc1998544 ipv6: Add rate limit mask for ICMPv6 messages
To make ICMPv6 closer to ICMPv4, add ratemask parameter. Since the ICMP
message types use larger numeric values, a simple bitmask doesn't fit.
I use large bitmap. The input and output are the in form of list of
ranges. Set the default to rate limit all error messages but Packet Too
Big. For Packet Too Big, use ratemask instead of hard-coded.

There are functions where icmpv6_xrlim_allow() and icmpv6_global_allow()
aren't called. This patch only adds them to icmpv6_echo_reply().

Rate limiting error messages is mandated by RFC 4443 but RFC 4890 says
that it is also acceptable to rate limit informational messages. Thus,
I removed the current hard-coded behavior of icmpv6_mask_allow() that
doesn't rate limit informational messages.

v2: Add dummy function proc_do_large_bitmap() if CONFIG_PROC_SYSCTL
    isn't defined, expand the description in ip-sysctl.txt and remove
    unnecessary conditional before kfree().
v3: Inline the bitmap instead of dynamically allocated. Still is a
    pointer to it is needed because of the way proc_do_large_bitmap work.

52735a6f0b batman-adv: Drop documentation about sysfs files
The sysfs files will be marked as deprecated in the near future. They
are already replaced by the batadv generic netlink family. The
documentation should not advertise its usage anymore and instead
promote the generic netlink family and a userspace tool to access it.

9ab948a91b ipv4: Allow amount of dirty memory from fib resizing to be controllable
fib_trie implementation calls synchronize_rcu when a certain amount of
pages are dirty from freed entries. The number of pages was determined
experimentally in 2009 (commit c3059477fc).

At the current setting, synchronize_rcu is called often -- 51 times in a
second in one test with an average of an 8 msec delay adding a fib entry.
The total impact is a lot of slow down modifying the fib. This is seen
in the output of 'time' - the difference between real time and sys+user.
For example, using 720,022 single path routes and 'ip -batch'[1]:

    $ time ./ip -batch ipv4/routes-1-hops
    real    0m14.214s
    user    0m2.513s
    sys     0m6.783s

So roughly 35% of the actual time to install the routes is from the ip
command getting scheduled out, most notably due to synchronize_rcu (this
is observed using 'perf sched timehist').

This patch makes the amount of dirty memory configurable between 64k where
the synchronize_rcu is called often (small, low end systems that are memory
sensitive) to 64M where synchronize_rcu is called rarely during a large
FIB change (for high end systems with lots of memory). The default is 512kB
which corresponds to the current setting of 128 pages with a 4kB page size.

As an example, at 16MB the worst interval shows 4 calls to synchronize_rcu
in a second blocking for up to 30 msec in a single instance, and a total
of almost 100 msec across the 4 calls in the second. The trade off is
allowing FIB entries to consume more memory in a given time window but
but with much better fib insertion rates (~30% increase in prefixes/sec).
With this patch and net.ipv4.fib_sync_mem set to 16MB, the same batch
file runs in:

    $ time ./ip -batch ipv4/routes-1-hops
    real    0m9.692s
    user    0m2.491s
    sys     0m6.769s

So the dead time is reduced to about 1/2 second or <5% of the real time.

[1] 'ip' modified to not request ACK messages which improves route
    insertion times by about 20%

Netfilter fixes for net

The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for your net tree:

1) Remove a direct dependency with IPv6 introduced by the
   sip_external_media feature, from Alin Nastac.

2) Fix bogus ENOENT when removing interval elements from set.

3) Set transport_header from br_netfilter to mimic the stack
   behaviour, this partially fixes a checksum validation bug
   from the SCTP connection tracking, from Xin Long.

4) Fix undefined reference to symbol in xt_TEE, due to missing
   Kconfig dependencies, from Arnd Bergmann.

5) Check for NULL in skb_header_pointer() calls in ip6t_shr,
   from Kangjie Lu.

6) Fix bogus EBUSY when removing an existing conntrack helper from
   a transaction.

7) Fix module autoload of the redirect extension.

8) Remove duplicated transition in flowtable diagram in the existing
   documentation.

9) Missing .release_ops call from error path in newrule() which
   results module refcount leak, from Taehee Yoo.

====================
pull-request: bpf-next 2019-03-04

The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.

The main changes are:

1) Add AF_XDP support to libbpf. Rationale is to facilitate writing
   AF_XDP applications by offering higher-level APIs that hide many
   of the details of the AF_XDP uapi. Sample programs are converted
   over to this new interface as well, from Magnus.

2) Introduce a new cant_sleep() macro for annotation of functions
   that cannot sleep and use it in BPF_PROG_RUN() to assert that
   BPF programs run under preemption disabled context, from Peter.

3) Introduce per BPF prog stats in order to monitor the usage
   of BPF; this is controlled by kernel.bpf_stats_enabled sysctl
   knob where monitoring tools can make use of this to efficiently
   determine the average cost of programs, from Alexei.

4) Split up BPF selftest's test_progs similarly as we already
   did with test_verifier. This allows to further reduce merge
   conflicts in future and to get more structure into our
   quickly growing BPF selftest suite, from Stanislav.

5) Fix a bug in BTF's dedup algorithm which can cause an infinite
   loop in some circumstances; also various BPF doc fixes and
   improvements, from Andrii.

6) Various BPF sample cleanups and migration to libbpf in order
   to further isolate the old sample loader code (so we can get
   rid of it at some point), from Jakub.

7) Add a new BPF helper for BPF cgroup skb progs that allows
   to set ECN CE code point and a Host Bandwidth Manager (HBM)
   sample program for limiting the bandwidth used by v2 cgroups,
   from Lawrence.

8) Enable write access to skb->queue_mapping from tc BPF egress
   programs in order to let BPF pick TX queue, from Jesper.

9) Fix a bug in BPF spinlock handling for map-in-map which did
   not propagate spin_lock_off to the meta map, from Yonghong.

10) Fix a bug in the new per-CPU BPF prog counters to properly
    initialize stats for each CPU, from Eric.

11) Add various BPF helper prototypes to selftest's bpf_helpers.h,
    from Willem.

12) Fix various BPF samples bugs in XDP and tracing progs,
    from Toke, Daniel and Yonghong.

13) Silence preemption splat in test_bpf after BPF_PROG_RUN()
    enforces it now everywhere, from Anders.

14) Fix a signedness bug in libbpf's btf_dedup_ref_type() to
    get error handling working, from Dan.

15) Fix bpftool documentation and auto-completion with regards
    to stream_{verdict,parser} attach types, from Alban.
