[ Upstream commit 53c81e95df1793933f87748d36070a721f6cb287 ]

LTP/udp6_ipsec_vti tests fail when sending large UDP datagrams over
ip6_vti that require fragmentation and the underlying device has an
MTU smaller than 1500 plus some extra space for headers. This happens
because ip6_vti, by default, sets MTU to ETH_DATA_LEN and not updating
it depending on a destination address or link parameter. Further
attempts to send UDP packets may succeed because pmtu gets updated on
ICMPV6_PKT_TOOBIG in vti6_err().

In case the lower device has larger MTU size, e.g. 9000, ip6_vti works
but not using the possible maximum size, output packets have 1500 limit.

The above cases require manual MTU setup after ip6_vti creation. However
ip_vti already updates MTU based on lower device with ip_tunnel_bind_dev().

Here is the example when the lower device MTU is set to 9000:

  # ip a sh ltp_ns_veth2
      ltp_ns_veth2@if7: &lt;BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP&gt; mtu 9000 ...
        inet 10.0.0.2/24 scope global ltp_ns_veth2
        inet6 fd00::2/64 scope global

  # ip li add vti6 type vti6 local fd00::2 remote fd00::1
  # ip li show vti6
      vti6@NONE: &lt;POINTOPOINT,NOARP&gt; mtu 1500 ...
        link/tunnel6 fd00::2 peer fd00::1

After the patch:
  # ip li add vti6 type vti6 local fd00::2 remote fd00::1
  # ip li show vti6
      vti6@NONE: &lt;POINTOPOINT,NOARP&gt; mtu 8832 ...
        link/tunnel6 fd00::2 peer fd00::1

[ Upstream commit 4a6e3c5def13c91adf2acc613837001f09af3baa ]

ndisc_notify is the ipv6 equivalent to arp_notify. When arp_notify is
set to 1, gratuitous arp requests are sent when the device is brought up.
The same is expected when ndisc_notify is set to 1 (per ndisc_notify in
Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt). The NA is not sent on NETDEV_UP
event; add it.

commit ae0ac0ed6fcf5af3be0f63eb935f483f44a402d2 upstream.

instead of allocating each xt_counter individually, allocate 4k chunks
and then use these for counter allocation requests.

This should speed up rule evaluation by increasing data locality,
also speeds up ruleset loading because we reduce calls to the percpu
allocator.

As Eric points out we can't use PAGE_SIZE, page_allocator would fail on
arches with 64k page size.

commit 4d31eef5176df06f218201bc9c0ce40babb41660 upstream.

On SMP we overload the packet counter (unsigned long) to contain
percpu offset.  Hide this from callers and pass xt_counters address
instead.

Preparation patch to allocate the percpu counters in page-sized batch
chunks.

commit 57ebd808a97d7c5b1e1afb937c2db22beba3c1f8 upstream.

The rationale for removing the check is only correct for rulesets
generated by ip(6)tables.

In iptables, a jump can only occur to a user-defined chain, i.e.
because we size the stack based on number of user-defined chains we
cannot exceed stack size.

However, the underlying binary format has no such restriction,
and the validation step only ensures that the jump target is a
valid rule start point.

IOW, its possible to build a rule blob that has no user-defined
chains but does contain a jump.

If this happens, no jump stack gets allocated and crash occurs
because no jumpstack was allocated.

[ Upstream commit 15f35d49c93f4fa9875235e7bf3e3783d2dd7a1b ]

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-&gt;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.

[ Upstream commit ca79bec237f5809a7c3c59bd41cd0880aa889966 ]

gcc-8 has a new warning that detects overlapping input and output arguments
in memcpy(). It triggers for sit_init_net() calling ipip6_tunnel_clone_6rd(),
which is actually correct:

net/ipv6/sit.c: In function 'sit_init_net':
net/ipv6/sit.c:192:3: error: 'memcpy' source argument is the same as destination [-Werror=restrict]

The problem here is that the logic detecting the memcpy() arguments finds them
to be the same, but the conditional that tests for the input and output of
ipip6_tunnel_clone_6rd() to be identical is not a compile-time constant.

We know that netdev_priv(t-&gt;dev) is the same as t for a tunnel device,
and comparing "dev" directly here lets the compiler figure out as well
that 'dev == sitn-&gt;fb_tunnel_dev' when called from sit_init_net(), so
it no longer warns.

This code is old, so Cc stable to make sure that we don't get the warning
for older kernels built with new gcc.

[ Upstream commit ca79bec237f5809a7c3c59bd41cd0880aa889966 ]

gcc-8 has a new warning that detects overlapping input and output arguments
in memcpy(). It triggers for sit_init_net() calling ipip6_tunnel_clone_6rd(),
which is actually correct:

net/ipv6/sit.c: In function 'sit_init_net':
net/ipv6/sit.c:192:3: error: 'memcpy' source argument is the same as destination [-Werror=restrict]

The problem here is that the logic detecting the memcpy() arguments finds them
to be the same, but the conditional that tests for the input and output of
ipip6_tunnel_clone_6rd() to be identical is not a compile-time constant.

We know that netdev_priv(t-&gt;dev) is the same as t for a tunnel device,
and comparing "dev" directly here lets the compiler figure out as well
that 'dev == sitn-&gt;fb_tunnel_dev' when called from sit_init_net(), so
it no longer warns.

[ Upstream commit 588753f1eb18978512b1c9b85fddb457d46f9033 ]

One example of when an ICMPv6 packet is required to be looped back is
when a host acts as both a Multicast Listener and a Multicast Router.

A Multicast Router will listen on address ff02::16 for MLDv2 messages.

Currently, MLDv2 messages originating from a Multicast Listener running
on the same host as the Multicast Router are not being delivered to the
Multicast Router. This is due to dst.input being assigned the default
value of dst_discard.

This results in the packet being looped back but discarded before being
delivered to the Multicast Router.

This patch sets dst.input to ip6_input to ensure a looped back packet
is delivered to the Multicast Router.
