[ Upstream commit ec1d8ccb07deaf30fd0508af6755364ac47dc08d ]

Just like function ethtool_get_ts_info(), we should also consider the
phy_driver ts_info call back. For example, driver dp83640.

<title>net/8021q: create device with all possible features in wanted_features</title>

[ Upstream commit 88997e4208aea117627898e5f6f9801cf3cd42d2 ]

wanted_features is a set of features which have to be enabled if a
hardware allows that.

Currently when a vlan device is created, its wanted_features is set to
current features of its base device.

The problem is that the base device can get new features and they are
not propagated to vlan-s of this device.

If we look at bonding devices, they doesn't have this problem and this
patch suggests to fix this issue by the same way how it works for bonding
devices.

We meet this problem, when we try to create a vlan device over a bonding
device. When a system are booting, real devices require time to be
initialized, so bonding devices created without slaves, then vlan
devices are created and only then ethernet devices are added to the
bonding device. As a result we have vlan devices with disabled
scatter-gather.

* create a bonding device
  $ ip link add bond0 type bond
  $ ethtool -k bond0 | grep scatter
  scatter-gather: off
	tx-scatter-gather: off [requested on]
	tx-scatter-gather-fraglist: off [requested on]

* create a vlan device
  $ ip link add link bond0 name bond0.10 type vlan id 10
  $ ethtool -k bond0.10 | grep scatter
  scatter-gather: off
	tx-scatter-gather: off
	tx-scatter-gather-fraglist: off

* Add a slave device to bond0
  $ ip link set dev eth0 master bond0

And now we can see that the bond0 device has got the scatter-gather
feature, but the bond0.10 hasn't got it.
[root@laptop linux-task-diag]# ethtool -k bond0 | grep scatter
scatter-gather: on
	tx-scatter-gather: on
	tx-scatter-gather-fraglist: on
[root@laptop linux-task-diag]# ethtool -k bond0.10 | grep scatter
scatter-gather: off
	tx-scatter-gather: off
	tx-scatter-gather-fraglist: off

With this patch the vlan device will get all new features from the
bonding device.

Here is a call trace how features which are set in this patch reach
dev-&gt;wanted_features.

A vlan device with vid 0 is allow to creat by not able to be fully
cleaned up by unregister_vlan_dev() which checks for vlan_id!=0.

Also, VLAN 0 is probably not a valid number and it is kinda
"reserved" for HW accelerating devices, but it is probably too
late to reject it from creation even if makes sense. Instead,
just remove the check in unregister_vlan_dev().

<title>vlan: fix a use-after-free in vlan_device_event()</title>

[ Upstream commit 052d41c01b3a2e3371d66de569717353af489d63 ]

After refcnt reaches zero, vlan_vid_del() could free
dev-&gt;vlan_info via RCU:

	RCU_INIT_POINTER(dev-&gt;vlan_info, NULL);
	call_rcu(&amp;vlan_info-&gt;rcu, vlan_info_rcu_free);

However, the pointer 'grp' still points to that memory
since it is set before vlan_vid_del():

        vlan_info = rtnl_dereference(dev-&gt;vlan_info);
        if (!vlan_info)
                goto out;
        grp = &amp;vlan_info-&gt;grp;

Depends on when that RCU callback is scheduled, we could
trigger a use-after-free in vlan_group_for_each_dev()
right following this vlan_vid_del().

Fix it by moving vlan_vid_del() before setting grp. This
is also symmetric to the vlan_vid_add() we call in
vlan_device_event().

[ Upstream commit 9745e362add89432d2c951272a99b0a5fe4348a9 ]

The register_vlan_device would invoke free_netdev directly, when
register_vlan_dev failed. It would trigger the BUG_ON in free_netdev
if the dev was already registered. In this case, the netdev would be
freed in netdev_run_todo later.

So add one condition check now. Only when dev is not registered, then
free it directly.

The following is the part coredump when netdev_upper_dev_link failed
in register_vlan_dev. I removed the lines which are too long.

<title>net: add recursion limit to GRO</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently, GRO can do unlimited recursion through the gro_receive
handlers.  This was fixed for tunneling protocols by limiting tunnel GRO
to one level with encap_mark, but both VLAN and TEB still have this
problem.  Thus, the kernel is vulnerable to a stack overflow, if we
receive a packet composed entirely of VLAN headers.

This patch adds a recursion counter to the GRO layer to prevent stack
overflow.  When a gro_receive function hits the recursion limit, GRO is
aborted for this skb and it is processed normally.  This recursion
counter is put in the GRO CB, but could be turned into a percpu counter
if we run out of space in the CB.

Thanks to Vladimír Beneš &lt;vbenes@redhat.com&gt; for the initial bug report.

Fixes: CVE-2016-7039
Fixes: 9b174d88c257 ("net: Add Transparent Ethernet Bridging GRO support.")

<title>net: remove type_check from dev_get_nest_level()</title>

<id>952fcfd08c8109951622579d0ae7b9cd6cafd688</id>
<content type='text'>
The idea for type_check in dev_get_nest_level() was to count the number
of nested devices of the same type (currently, only macvlan or vlan
devices).
This prevented the false positive lockdep warning on configurations such
as:

eth0 &lt;--- macvlan0 &lt;--- vlan0 &lt;--- macvlan1

However, this doesn't prevent a warning on a configuration such as:

eth0 &lt;--- macvlan0 &lt;--- vlan0
eth1 &lt;--- vlan1 &lt;--- macvlan1

In this case, all the locks end up with a nesting subclass of 1, so
lockdep thinks that there is still a deadlock:

- in the first case we have (macvlan_netdev_addr_lock_key, 1) and then
  take (vlan_netdev_xmit_lock_key, 1)
- in the second case, we have (vlan_netdev_xmit_lock_key, 1) and then
  take (macvlan_netdev_addr_lock_key, 1)

By removing the linktype check in dev_get_nest_level() and always
incrementing the nesting depth, lockdep considers this configuration
valid.

<title>vlan: use a valid default mtu value for vlan over macsec</title>

<content type='text'>
macsec can't cope with mtu frames which need vlan tag insertion, and
vlan device set the default mtu equal to the underlying dev's one.
By default vlan over macsec devices use invalid mtu, dropping
all the large packets.
This patch adds a netif helper to check if an upper vlan device
needs mtu reduction. The helper is used during vlan devices
initialization to set a valid default and during mtu updating to
forbid invalid, too bit, mtu values.
The helper currently only check if the lower dev is a macsec device,
if we get more users, we need to update only the helper (possibly
reserving an additional IFF bit).

L2 upper device needs to propagate neigh_construct/destroy calls down to
lower devices. Do this by defining default ndo functions and use them in
team, bond, bridge and vlan.
