882af43a0f udplite: fix various data-races
udp->pcflag, udp->pcslen and udp->pcrlen reads/writes are racy.

Move udp->pcflag to udp->udp_flags for atomicity,
and add READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() annotations for pcslen and pcrlen.

d38afeec26 tcp/udp: Call inet6_destroy_sock() in IPv6 sk->sk_destruct().
Originally, inet6_sk(sk)->XXX were changed under lock_sock(), so we were
able to clean them up by calling inet6_destroy_sock() during the IPv6 ->
IPv4 conversion by IPV6_ADDRFORM.  However, commit 03485f2adc ("udpv6:
Add lockless sendmsg() support") added a lockless memory allocation path,
which could cause a memory leak:

setsockopt(IPV6_ADDRFORM)                 sendmsg()
+-----------------------+                 +-------+
- do_ipv6_setsockopt(sk, ...)             - udpv6_sendmsg(sk, ...)
  - sockopt_lock_sock(sk)                   ^._ called via udpv6_prot
    - lock_sock(sk)                             before WRITE_ONCE()
  - WRITE_ONCE(sk->sk_prot, &tcp_prot)
  - inet6_destroy_sock()                    - if (!corkreq)
  - sockopt_release_sock(sk)                  - ip6_make_skb(sk, ...)
    - release_sock(sk)                          ^._ lockless fast path for
                                                    the non-corking case

                                                - __ip6_append_data(sk, ...)
                                                  - ipv6_local_rxpmtu(sk, ...)
                                                    - xchg(&np->rxpmtu, skb)
                                                      ^._ rxpmtu is never freed.

                                                - goto out_no_dst;

                                            - lock_sock(sk)

For now, rxpmtu is only the case, but not to miss the future change
and a similar bug fixed in commit e27326009a ("net: ping6: Fix
memleak in ipv6_renew_options()."), let's set a new function to IPv6
sk->sk_destruct() and call inet6_cleanup_sock() there.  Since the
conversion does not change sk->sk_destruct(), we can guarantee that
we can clean up IPv6 resources finally.

We can now remove all inet6_destroy_sock() calls from IPv6 protocol
specific ->destroy() functions, but such changes are invasive to
backport.  So they can be posted as a follow-up later for net-next.

15f35d49c9 udplite: fix partial checksum initialization
Since UDP-Lite is always using checksum, the following path is
triggered when calculating pseudo header for it:

  udp4_csum_init() or udp6_csum_init()
    skb_checksum_init_zero_check()
      __skb_checksum_validate_complete()

The problem can appear if skb->len is less than CHECKSUM_BREAK. In
this particular case __skb_checksum_validate_complete() also invokes
__skb_checksum_complete(skb). If UDP-Lite is using partial checksum
that covers only part of a packet, the function will return bad
checksum and the packet will be dropped.

It can be fixed if we skip skb_checksum_init_zero_check() and only
set the required pseudo header checksum for UDP-Lite with partial
checksum before udp4_csum_init()/udp6_csum_init() functions return.

b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
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 & 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 >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <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.

2276f58ac5 udp: use a separate rx queue for packet reception
under udp flood the sk_receive_queue spinlock is heavily contended.
This patch try to reduce the contention on such lock adding a
second receive queue to the udp sockets; recvmsg() looks first
in such queue and, only if empty, tries to fetch the data from
sk_receive_queue. The latter is spliced into the newly added
queue every time the receive path has to acquire the
sk_receive_queue lock.

The accounting of forward allocated memory is still protected with
the sk_receive_queue lock, so udp_rmem_release() needs to acquire
both locks when the forward deficit is flushed.

On specific scenarios we can end up acquiring and releasing the
sk_receive_queue lock multiple times; that will be covered by
the next patch

ba7a46f16d net: Convert LIMIT_NETDEBUG to net_dbg_ratelimited
Use the more common dynamic_debug capable net_dbg_ratelimited
and remove the LIMIT_NETDEBUG macro.

All messages are still ratelimited.

Some KERN_<LEVEL> uses are changed to KERN_DEBUG.

This may have some negative impact on messages that were
emitted at KERN_INFO that are not not enabled at all unless
DEBUG is defined or dynamic_debug is enabled.  Even so,
these messages are now _not_ emitted by default.

This also eliminates the use of the net_msg_warn sysctl
"/proc/sys/net/core/warnings".  For backward compatibility,
the sysctl is not removed, but it has no function.  The extern
declaration of net_msg_warn is removed from sock.h and made
static in net/core/sysctl_net_core.c

Miscellanea:

o Update the sysctl documentation
o Remove the embedded uses of pr_fmt
o Coalesce format fragments
o Realign arguments

Commit 903ab86d19 of 1 March this year ("udp: Add

coverage computation of UDP-lite, which so far depended on up->len (only set
if the socket is locked and 0 in the fast path).

Fixed by providing both fast- and slow-path computation of checksum coverage.
The latter can be removed when UDP(-lite)v6 also uses a lockless transmit path.

645ca708f9 udp: introduce struct udp_table and multiple spinlocks
UDP sockets are hashed in a 128 slots hash table.

This hash table is protected by *one* rwlock.

This rwlock is readlocked each time an incoming UDP message is handled.

This rwlock is writelocked each time a socket must be inserted in
hash table (bind time), or deleted from this table (close time)

This is not scalable on SMP machines :

1) Even in read mode, lock() and unlock() are atomic operations and
 must dirty a contended cache line, shared by all cpus.

2) A writer might be starved if many readers are 'in flight'. This can
 happen on a machine with some NIC receiving many UDP messages. User
 process can be delayed a long time at socket creation/dismantle time.

This patch prepares RCU migration, by introducing 'struct udp_table
and struct udp_hslot', and using one spinlock per chain, to reduce
contention on central rwlock.

Introducing one spinlock per chain reduces latencies, for port
randomization on heavily loaded UDP servers. This also speedup
bindings to specific ports.

udp_lib_unhash() was uninlined, becoming to big.

Some cleanups were done to ease review of following patch
(RCUification of UDP Unicast lookups)

receive checksums between UDP-Lite and UDP.  It does this by
introducing __skb_checksum_complete_head which is identical to
__skb_checksum_complete_head apart from the fact that it takes
a length parameter rather than computing the first skb->len bytes.

As a result UDP-Lite will be able to use hardware checksum offload
for packets which do not use partial coverage checksums.  It also
means that UDP-Lite loopback no longer does unnecessary checksum
verification.

If any NICs start support UDP-Lite this would also start working
automatically.

This patch removes the assumption that msg_flags has MSG_TRUNC clear
upon entry in recvmsg.

ba4e58eca8 [NET]: Supporting UDP-Lite (RFC 3828) in Linux
This is a revision of the previously submitted patch, which alters
the way files are organized and compiled in the following manner:

	* UDP and UDP-Lite now use separate object files
	* source file dependencies resolved via header files
	  net/ipv{4,6}/udp_impl.h
	* order of inclusion files in udp.c/udplite.c adapted
	  accordingly

[NET/IPv4]: Support for the UDP-Lite protocol (RFC 3828)

This patch adds support for UDP-Lite to the IPv4 stack, provided as an
extension to the existing UDPv4 code:
        * generic routines are all located in net/ipv4/udp.c
        * UDP-Lite specific routines are in net/ipv4/udplite.c
        * MIB/statistics support in /proc/net/snmp and /proc/net/udplite
        * shared API with extensions for partial checksum coverage

[NET/IPv6]: Extension for UDP-Lite over IPv6

It extends the existing UDPv6 code base with support for UDP-Lite
in the same manner as per UDPv4. In particular,
        * UDPv6 generic and shared code is in net/ipv6/udp.c
        * UDP-Litev6 specific extensions are in net/ipv6/udplite.c
        * MIB/statistics support in /proc/net/snmp6 and /proc/net/udplite6
        * support for IPV6_ADDRFORM
        * aligned the coding style of protocol initialisation with af_inet6.c
        * made the error handling in udpv6_queue_rcv_skb consistent;
          to return `-1' on error on all error cases
        * consolidation of shared code

[NET]: UDP-Lite Documentation and basic XFRM/Netfilter support

The UDP-Lite patch further provides
        * API documentation for UDP-Lite
        * basic xfrm support
        * basic netfilter support for IPv4 and IPv6 (LOG target)
