Use of percpu_counter structure to track count of orphaned
sockets is causing problems on modern hosts with 256 cpus
or more.

Stefan Bach reported a serious spinlock contention in real workloads,
that I was able to reproduce with a netfilter rule dropping
incoming FIN packets.

                                                __softirqentry_text_start

As explained in commit cf86a086a180 ("net/dst: use a smaller percpu_counter
batch for dst entries accounting"), default batch size is too big
for the default value of tcp_max_orphans (262144).

But even if we reduce batch sizes, there would still be cases
where the estimated count of orphans is beyond the limit,
and where tcp_too_many_orphans() has to call the expensive
percpu_counter_sum_positive().

One solution is to use plain per-cpu counters, and have
a timer to periodically refresh this cache.

Updating this cache every 100ms seems about right, tcp pressure
state is not radically changing over shorter periods.

percpu_counter was nice 15 years ago while hosts had less
than 16 cpus, not anymore by current standards.

v2: Fix the build issue for CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_CHELSIO_TLS=m,
    reported by kernel test robot &lt;lkp@intel.com&gt;
    Remove unused socket argument from tcp_too_many_orphans()

<title>dccp: don't duplicate ccid when cloning dccp sock</title>

Commit 2677d2067731 ("dccp: don't free ccid2_hc_tx_sock ...") fixed
a UAF but reintroduced CVE-2017-6074.

When the sock is cloned, two dccps_hc_tx_ccid will reference to the
same ccid. So one can free the ccid object twice from two socks after
cloning.

This issue was found by "Hadar Manor" as well and assigned with
CVE-2020-16119, which was fixed in Ubuntu's kernel. So here I port
the patch from Ubuntu to fix it.

The patch prevents cloned socks from referencing the same ccid.

net namespace can create up to 64K tcp and dccp ports and force kernel
to allocate up to several megabytes of memory per netns
for inet_bind_bucket objects.

It makes sense to account for them to restrict the host's memory
consumption from inside the memcg-limited container.

This patch introduces a function wrapper to call the sk_error_report
callback. That will prepare to add additional handling whenever
sk_error_report is called, for example to trace socket errors.

DCCP is virtually never used, so no need to use space in struct net for it.

Put the pernet ipv4/v6 socket in the dccp ipv4/ipv6 modules instead.

<title>ipv6: weaken the v4mapped source check</title>

This reverts commit 6af1799aaf3f1bc8defedddfa00df3192445bbf3.

Commit 6af1799aaf3f ("ipv6: drop incoming packets having a v4mapped
source address") introduced an input check against v4mapped addresses.
Use of such addresses on the wire is indeed questionable and not
allowed on public Internet. As the commit pointed out

  https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-itojun-v6ops-v4mapped-harmful-02

lists potential issues.

Unfortunately there are applications which use v4mapped addresses,
and breaking them is a clear regression. For example v4mapped
addresses (or any semi-valid addresses, really) may be used
for uni-direction event streams or packet export.

Since the issue which sparked the addition of the check was with
TCP and request_socks in particular push the check down to TCPv6
and DCCP. This restores the ability to receive UDPv6 packets with
v4mapped address as the source.

Keep using the IPSTATS_MIB_INHDRERRORS statistic to minimize the
user-visible changes.
