[ Upstream commit 1b97013bfb11d66f041de691de6f0fec748ce016 ]

Fix more memory leaks in ip_cmsg_send() callers. Part of them were fixed
earlier in 919483096bfe.

* udp_sendmsg one was there since the beginning when linux sources were
  first added to git;
* ping_v4_sendmsg one was copy/pasted in c319b4d76b9e.

Whenever return happens in udp_sendmsg() or ping_v4_sendmsg() IP options
have to be freed if they were allocated previously.

Add label so that future callers (if any) can use it instead of kfree()
before return that is easy to forget.

commit 43a6684519ab0a6c52024b5e25322476cabad893 upstream.

We got a report of yet another bug in ping

http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2017/03/24/6

-&gt;disconnect() is not called with socket lock held.

Fix this by acquiring ping rwlock earlier.

Thanks to Daniel, Alexander and Andrey for letting us know this problem.

<title>net: ping: check minimum size on ICMP header length</title>

[ Upstream commit 0eab121ef8750a5c8637d51534d5e9143fb0633f ]

Prior to commit c0371da6047a ("put iov_iter into msghdr") in v3.19, there
was no check that the iovec contained enough bytes for an ICMP header,
and the read loop would walk across neighboring stack contents. Since the
iov_iter conversion, bad arguments are noticed, but the returned error is
EFAULT. Returning EINVAL is a clearer error and also solves the problem
prior to v3.19.

This was found using trinity with KASAN on v3.18:

[ Upstream commit 919483096bfe75dda338e98d56da91a263746a0a ]

Dmitry reported memory leaks of IP options allocated in
ip_cmsg_send() when/if this function returns an error.

Callers are responsible for the freeing.

Many thanks to Dmitry for the report and diagnostic.

Add support to allow non-local binds similar to how this was done for IPv4.
Non-local binds are very useful in emulating the Internet in a box, etc.

This add the ip_nonlocal_bind sysctl under ipv6.

Testing:

Set up nonlocal binding and receive routing on a host, e.g.:

ip -6 rule add from ::/0 iif eth0 lookup 200
ip -6 route add local 2001:0:0:1::/64 dev lo proto kernel scope host table 200
sysctl -w net.ipv6.ip_nonlocal_bind=1

Set up routing to 2001:0:0:1::/64 on peer to go to first host

ping6 -I 2001:0:0:1::1 peer-address -- to verify

If we don't do that, then the poison value is left in the -&gt;pprev
backlink.

This can cause crashes if we do a disconnect, followed by a connect().

The ipv4 code uses a mixture of coding styles. In some instances check
for non-NULL pointer is done as x != NULL and sometimes as x. x is
preferred according to checkpatch and this patch makes the code
consistent by adopting the latter form.

No changes detected by objdiff.
