====================
pull-request: bpf 2017-11-23

The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net* tree.

The main changes are:

1) Several BPF offloading fixes, from Jakub. Among others:

    - Limit offload to cls_bpf and XDP program types only.
    - Move device validation into the driver and don't make
      any assumptions about the device in the classifier due
      to shared blocks semantics.
    - Don't pass offloaded XDP program into the driver when
      it should be run in native XDP instead. Offloaded ones
      are not JITed for the host in such cases.
    - Don't destroy device offload state when moved to
      another namespace.
    - Revert dumping offload info into user space for now,
      since ifindex alone is not sufficient. This will be
      redone properly for bpf-next tree.

2) Fix test_verifier to avoid using bpf_probe_write_user()
   helper in test cases, since it's dumping a warning into
   kernel log which may confuse users when only running tests.
   Switch to use bpf_trace_printk() instead, from Yonghong.

3) Several fixes for correcting ARG_CONST_SIZE_OR_ZERO semantics
   before it becomes uabi, from Gianluca. More specifically:

    - Add a type ARG_PTR_TO_MEM_OR_NULL that is used only
      by bpf_csum_diff(), where the argument is either a
      valid pointer or NULL. The subsequent ARG_CONST_SIZE_OR_ZERO
      then enforces a valid pointer in case of non-0 size
      or a valid pointer or NULL in case of size 0. Given
      that, the semantics for ARG_PTR_TO_MEM in combination
      with ARG_CONST_SIZE_OR_ZERO are now such that in case
      of size 0, the pointer must always be valid and cannot
      be NULL. This fix in semantics allows for bpf_probe_read()
      to drop the recently added size == 0 check in the helper
      that would become part of uabi otherwise once released.
      At the same time we can then fix bpf_probe_read_str() and
      bpf_perf_event_output() to use ARG_CONST_SIZE_OR_ZERO
      instead of ARG_CONST_SIZE in order to fix recently
      reported issues by Arnaldo et al, where LLVM optimizes
      two boundary checks into a single one for unknown
      variables where the verifier looses track of the variable
      bounds and thus rejects valid programs otherwise.

4) A fix for the verifier for the case when it detects
   comparison of two constants where the branch is guaranteed
   to not be taken at runtime. Verifier will rightfully prune
   the exploration of such paths, but we still pass the program
   to JITs, where they would complain about using reserved
   fields, etc. Track such dead instructions and sanitize
   them with mov r0,r0. Rejection is not possible since LLVM
   may generate them for valid C code and doesn't do as much
   data flow analysis as verifier. For bpf-next we might
   implement removal of such dead code and adjust branches
   instead. Fix from Alexei.

<title>net: accept UFO datagrams from tuntap and packet</title>

<id>0c19f846d582af919db66a5914a0189f9f92c936</id>
<content type='text'>
Tuntap and similar devices can inject GSO packets. Accept type
VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP, even though not generating UFO natively.

Processes are expected to use feature negotiation such as TUNSETOFFLOAD
to detect supported offload types and refrain from injecting other
packets. This process breaks down with live migration: guest kernels
do not renegotiate flags, so destination hosts need to expose all
features that the source host does.

Partially revert the UFO removal from 182e0b6b5846~1..d9d30adf5677.
This patch introduces nearly(*) no new code to simplify verification.
It brings back verbatim tuntap UFO negotiation, VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP
insertion and software UFO segmentation.

It does not reinstate protocol stack support, hardware offload
(NETIF_F_UFO), SKB_GSO_UDP tunneling in SKB_GSO_SOFTWARE or reception
of VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP packets in tuntap.

To support SKB_GSO_UDP reappearing in the stack, also reinstate
logic in act_csum and openvswitch. Achieve equivalence with v4.13 HEAD
by squashing in commit 939912216fa8 ("net: skb_needs_check() removes
CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY check for tx.") and reverting commit 8d63bee643f1
("net: avoid skb_warn_bad_offload false positives on UFO").

(*) To avoid having to bring back skb_shinfo(skb)-&gt;ip6_frag_id,
ipv6_proxy_select_ident is changed to return a __be32 and this is
assigned directly to the frag_hdr. Also, SKB_GSO_UDP is inserted
at the end of the enum to minimize code churn.

Tested
  Booted a v4.13 guest kernel with QEMU. On a host kernel before this
  patch `ethtool -k eth0` shows UFO disabled. After the patch, it is
  enabled, same as on a v4.13 host kernel.

  A UFO packet sent from the guest appears on the tap device:
    host:
      nc -l -p -u 8000 &amp;
      tcpdump -n -i tap0

    guest:
      dd if=/dev/zero of=payload.txt bs=1 count=2000
      nc -u 192.16.1.1 8000 &lt; payload.txt

  Direct tap to tap transmission of VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP succeeds,
  packets arriving fragmented:

    ./with_tap_pair.sh ./tap_send_ufo tap0 tap1
    (from https://github.com/wdebruij/kerneltools/tree/master/tests)

<title>net: ipv6: Fixup device for anycast routes during copy</title>

<id>98d11291d189cb5adf49694d0ad1b971c0212697</id>
<content type='text'>
Florian reported a breakage with anycast routes due to commit
4832c30d5458 ("net: ipv6: put host and anycast routes on device with
address"). Prior to this commit anycast routes were added against the
loopback device causing repetitive route entries with no insight into
why they existed. e.g.:
  $ ip -6 ro ls  table local type anycast
  anycast 2001:db8:1:: dev lo proto kernel metric 0 pref medium
  anycast 2001:db8:2:: dev lo proto kernel metric 0 pref medium
  anycast fe80:: dev lo proto kernel metric 0 pref medium
  anycast fe80:: dev lo proto kernel metric 0 pref medium

The point of commit 4832c30d5458 is to add the routes using the device
with the address which is causing the route to be added. e.g.,:
  $ ip -6 ro ls  table local type anycast
  anycast 2001:db8:1:: dev eth1 proto kernel metric 0 pref medium
  anycast 2001:db8:2:: dev eth2 proto kernel metric 0 pref medium
  anycast fe80:: dev eth2 proto kernel metric 0 pref medium
  anycast fe80:: dev eth1 proto kernel metric 0 pref medium

For traffic to work as it did before, the dst device needs to be switched
to the loopback when the copy is created similar to local routes.

Florian reported a breakage with anycast routes due to commit
4832c30d5458 ("net: ipv6: put host and anycast routes on device with
address"). Prior to this commit anycast routes were added against the
loopback device causing repetitive route entries with no insight into
why they existed. e.g.:
  $ ip -6 ro ls  table local type anycast
  anycast 2001:db8:1:: dev lo proto kernel metric 0 pref medium
  anycast 2001:db8:2:: dev lo proto kernel metric 0 pref medium
  anycast fe80:: dev lo proto kernel metric 0 pref medium
  anycast fe80:: dev lo proto kernel metric 0 pref medium

The point of commit 4832c30d5458 is to add the routes using the device
with the address which is causing the route to be added. e.g.,:
  $ ip -6 ro ls  table local type anycast
  anycast 2001:db8:1:: dev eth1 proto kernel metric 0 pref medium
  anycast 2001:db8:2:: dev eth2 proto kernel metric 0 pref medium
  anycast fe80:: dev eth2 proto kernel metric 0 pref medium
  anycast fe80:: dev eth1 proto kernel metric 0 pref medium

For traffic to work as it did before, the dst device needs to be switched
to the loopback when the copy is created similar to local routes.

With gcc-4.1.2:

    net/smc/smc_core.c: In function ‘__smc_buf_create’:
    net/smc/smc_core.c:567: warning: ‘bufsize’ may be used uninitialized in this function

Indeed, if the for-loop is never executed, bufsize is used
uninitialized.  In addition, buf_desc is stored for later use, while it
is still a NULL pointer.

Before, error handling was done by checking if buf_desc is non-NULL.
The cleanup changed this to an error check, but forgot to update the
preinitialization of buf_desc to an error pointer.

Update the preinitializatin of buf_desc to fix this.

Commit 3e034725c0d8 ("net/smc: common functions for RMBs and send buffers")
merged handling of SMC receive and send buffers. It introduced sk_buf_size
as merged start value for size determination. But since sk_buf_size is not
used at all, sk_sndbuf is erroneously used as start for rmb creation.
This patch makes sure, sk_buf_size is really used as intended, and
sk_rcvbuf is used as start value for rmb creation.

<title>ipv6: Do not consider linkdown nexthops during multipath</title>

<content type='text'>
When the 'ignore_routes_with_linkdown' sysctl is set, we should not
consider linkdown nexthops during route lookup.

While the code correctly verifies that the initially selected route
('match') has a carrier, it does not perform the same check in the
subsequent multipath selection, resulting in a potential packet loss.

In case the chosen route does not have a carrier and the sysctl is set,
choose the initially selected route.

If you flush (delete) a filter chain other than chain 0 (such as when
deleting the device), the kernel may run into a use-after-free. The
chain refcount must not be decremented unless we are sure we are done
with the chain.

To reproduce the bug, run:
    ip link add dtest type dummy
    tc qdisc add dev dtest ingress
    tc filter add dev dtest chain 1  parent ffff: flower
    ip link del dtest

Introduced in: commit f93e1cdcf42c ("net/sched: fix filter flushing"),
but unless you have KAsan or luck, you won't notice it until
commit 0dadc117ac8b ("cls_flower: use tcf_exts_get_net() before call_rcu()")
