[ Upstream commit 077cb37fcf6f00a45f375161200b5ee0cd4e937b ]

It seems that kernel memory can leak into userspace by a
kmalloc, ethtool_get_strings, then copy_to_user sequence.

Avoid this by using kcalloc to zero fill the copied buffer.

[ Upstream commit 93d08b6966cf730ea669d4d98f43627597077153 ]

When sockets have a native eBPF program attached through
setsockopt(sk, SOL_SOCKET, SO_ATTACH_BPF, ...), and then try to
dump these over getsockopt(sk, SOL_SOCKET, SO_GET_FILTER, ...),
the following panic appears:

The underlying issue is the very same as in commit b382c0865600
("sock, diag: fix panic in sock_diag_put_filterinfo"), that is,
native eBPF programs don't store an original program since this
is only needed in cBPF ones.

However, sk_get_filter() wasn't updated to test for this at the
time when eBPF could be attached. Just throw an error to the user
to indicate that eBPF cannot be dumped over this interface.
That way, it can also be known that a program _is_ attached (as
opposed to just return 0), and a different (future) method needs
to be consulted for a dump.

[ Upstream commit 31b33dfb0a144469dd805514c9e63f4993729a48 ]

Earlier patch 6ae459bda tried to detect void ckecksum partial
skb by comparing pull length to checksum offset. But it does
not work for all cases since checksum-offset depends on
updates to skb-&gt;data.

Following patch fixes it by validating checksum start offset
after skb-data pointer is updated. Negative value of checksum
offset start means there is no need to checksum.

[ Upstream commit 41fc014332d91ee90c32840bf161f9685b7fbf2b ]

dump_rules returns skb length and not error.
But when family == AF_UNSPEC, the caller of dump_rules
assumes that it returns an error. Hence, when family == AF_UNSPEC,
we continue trying to dump on -EMSGSIZE errors resulting in
incorrect dump idx carried between skbs belonging to the same dump.
This results in fib rule dump always only dumping rules that fit
into the first skb.

This patch fixes dump_rules to return error so that we exit correctly
and idx is correctly maintained between skbs that are part of the
same dump.

[ Upstream commit b382c08656000c12a146723a153b85b13a855b49 ]

diag socket's sock_diag_put_filterinfo() dumps classic BPF programs
upon request to user space (ss -0 -b). However, native eBPF programs
attached to sockets (SO_ATTACH_BPF) cannot be dumped with this method:

Their orig_prog is always NULL. However, sock_diag_put_filterinfo()
unconditionally tries to access its filter length resp. wants to copy
the filter insns from there. Internal cBPF to eBPF transformations
attached to sockets don't have this issue, as orig_prog state is kept.

It's currently only used by packet sockets. If we would want to add
native eBPF support in the future, this needs to be done through
a different attribute than PACKET_DIAG_FILTER to not confuse possible
user space disassemblers that work on diag data.

reqsk_queue_destroy() and reqsk_queue_unlink() should use

otherwise we could free a req still used by another cpu.

But before doing so, reqsk_queue_destroy() must release syn_wait_lock

skb before setting peeked flag") introduced a use-after-free bug
in skb_recv_datagram.  This is because skb_set_peeked may create
a new skb and free the existing one.  As it stands the caller will
continue to use the old freed skb.

This patch fixes it by making skb_set_peeked return the new skb
(or the old one if unchanged).

[ Upstream commit 89c22d8c3b278212eef6a8cc66b570bc840a6f5a ]

When we calculate the checksum on the recv path, we store the
result in the skb as an optimisation in case we need the checksum
again down the line.

This is in fact bogus for the MSG_PEEK case as this is done without
any locking.  So multiple threads can peek and then store the result
to the same skb, potentially resulting in bogus skb states.

This patch fixes this by only storing the result if the skb is not
shared.  This preserves the optimisations for the few cases where
it can be done safely due to locking or other reasons, e.g., SIOCINQ.

[ Upstream commit 89c22d8c3b278212eef6a8cc66b570bc840a6f5a ]

When we calculate the checksum on the recv path, we store the
result in the skb as an optimisation in case we need the checksum
again down the line.

This is in fact bogus for the MSG_PEEK case as this is done without
any locking.  So multiple threads can peek and then store the result
to the same skb, potentially resulting in bogus skb states.

This patch fixes this by only storing the result if the skb is not
shared.  This preserves the optimisations for the few cases where
it can be done safely due to locking or other reasons, e.g., SIOCINQ.

[ Upstream commit 738ac1ebb96d02e0d23bc320302a6ea94c612dec ]

Shared skbs must not be modified and this is crucial for broadcast
and/or multicast paths where we use it as an optimisation to avoid
unnecessary cloning.

The function skb_recv_datagram breaks this rule by setting peeked
without cloning the skb first.  This causes funky races which leads
to double-free.

This patch fixes this by cloning the skb and replacing the skb
in the list when setting skb-&gt;peeked.

Fixes: a59322be07c9 ("[UDP]: Only increment counter on first peek/recv")

[ Upstream commit 2c17d27c36dcce2b6bf689f41a46b9e909877c21 ]

Incoming packet should be either in backlog queue or
in RCU read-side section. Otherwise, the final sequence of
flush_backlog() and synchronize_net() may miss packets
that can run without device reference:

CPU 1                  CPU 2
                       skb-&gt;dev: no reference
                       process_backlog:__skb_dequeue
                       process_backlog:local_irq_enable

on_each_cpu for
flush_backlog =&gt;       IPI(hardirq): flush_backlog
                       - packet not found in backlog

                       CPU delayed ...
synchronize_net
- no ongoing RCU
read-side sections

netdev_run_todo,
rcu_barrier: no
ongoing callbacks
                       __netif_receive_skb_core:rcu_read_lock
                       - too late

                       process packet for freed dev
