[ Upstream commit a84b69cb6e0a41e86bc593904faa6def3b957343 ]

If we'd already sent a request and decide to abort it, we *must*
issue TFLUSH properly and not just blindly reuse the tag, or
we'll get seriously screwed when response eventually arrives
and we confuse it for response to later request that had reused
the same tag.

[ Upstream commit ab499db80fcf07c18e4053f91a619500f663e90e ]

There was a possible race between
ieee80211_reconfig() and
ieee80211_delayed_tailroom_dec(). This could
result in inability to transmit data if driver
crashed during roaming or rekeying and subsequent
skbs with insufficient tailroom appeared.

This race was probably never seen in the wild
because a device driver would have to crash AND
recover within 0.5s which is very unlikely.

I was able to prove this race exists after
changing the delay to 10s locally and crashing
ath10k via debugfs immediately after GTK
rekeying. In case of ath10k the counter went below
0. This was harmless but other drivers which
actually require tailroom (e.g. for WEP ICV or
MMIC) could end up with the counter at 0 instead
of &gt;0 and introduce insufficient skb tailroom
failures because mac80211 would not resize skbs
appropriately anymore.

The commit 984ff7a3e060 is an upstream backport. In fact, it depends on
commit 395eea6ccf2b ("rtnetlink: delay RTM_DELLINK notification until after ndo_uninit()")
which has not been backported in 3.18.y.

Before commit 395eea6ccf2b, rollback_registered_many() uses rtmsg_ifinfo().
The call to this function is done with dev-&gt;reg_state set to
NETREG_UNREGISTERING, thus testing this reg_state in rtmsg_ifinfo() is
wrong.

This patch partially reverts commit 984ff7a3e060.

[ Upstream commit d6b6cb1d3e6f78d55c2d4043d77d0d8def3f3b99 ]

If there's an existing base chain, we have to allow to change the
default policy without indicating the hook information.

However, if the chain doesn't exists, we have to enforce the presence of
the hook attribute.

<title>netfilter: Zero the tuple in nfnl_cthelper_parse_tuple()</title>

[ Upstream commit 78146572b9cd20452da47951812f35b1ad4906be ]

nfnl_cthelper_parse_tuple() is called from nfnl_cthelper_new(),
nfnl_cthelper_get() and nfnl_cthelper_del().  In each case they pass
a pointer to an nf_conntrack_tuple data structure local variable:

    struct nf_conntrack_tuple tuple;
    ...
    ret = nfnl_cthelper_parse_tuple(&amp;tuple, tb[NFCTH_TUPLE]);

The problem is that this local variable is not initialized, and
nfnl_cthelper_parse_tuple() only initializes two fields: src.l3num and
dst.protonum.  This leaves all other fields with undefined values
based on whatever is on the stack:

    tuple-&gt;src.l3num = ntohs(nla_get_be16(tb[NFCTH_TUPLE_L3PROTONUM]));
    tuple-&gt;dst.protonum = nla_get_u8(tb[NFCTH_TUPLE_L4PROTONUM]);

The symptom observed was that when the rpc and tns helpers were added
then traffic to port 1536 was being sent to user-space.

[ Upstream commit 36c01245eb8046c16eee6431e7dbfbb302635fa8 ]

As reported by Manfred Schlaegl here

   http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&amp;m=143482089824232&amp;w=2

commit 514ac99c64b "can: fix multiple delivery of a single CAN frame for
overlapping CAN filters" requires the skb-&gt;tstamp to be set to check for
identical CAN skbs.

As net timestamping is influenced by several players (netstamp_needed and
netdev_tstamp_prequeue) Manfred missed a proper timestamp which leads to
CAN frame loss.

As skb timestamping became now mandatory for CAN related skbs this patch
makes sure that received CAN skbs always have a proper timestamp set.
Maybe there's a better solution in the future but this patch fixes the
CAN frame loss so far.

[ Upstream commit 29c4afc4e98f4dc0ea9df22c631841f9c220b944 ]

There is NULL pointer dereference possible during statistics update if the route
used for OOTB responce is removed at unfortunate time. If the route exists when
we receive OOTB packet and we finally jump into sctp_packet_transmit() to send
ABORT, but in the meantime route is removed under our feet, we take "no_route"
path and try to update stats with IP_INC_STATS(sock_net(asoc-&gt;base.sk), ...).

But sctp_ootb_pkt_new() used to prepare responce packet doesn't call
sctp_transport_set_owner() and therefore there is no asoc associated with this
packet. Probably temporary asoc just for OOTB responces is overkill, so just
introduce a check like in all other places in sctp_packet_transmit(), where
"asoc" is dereferenced.

To reproduce this, one needs to
0. ensure that sctp module is loaded (otherwise ABORT is not generated)
1. remove default route on the machine
2. while true; do
     ip route del [interface-specific route]
     ip route add [interface-specific route]
   done
3. send enough OOTB packets (i.e. HB REQs) from another host to trigger ABORT
   responce

On x86_64 the crash looks like this:
