[ Upstream commit 3a89eaa65db68bf53bf92dedc60084f810e1779a ]

The support for DSA Ethernet switch chips depends on TCP/IP networking,
thus explicit that HAVE_NET_DSA depends on INET.

DSA uses SWITCHDEV, thus select it instead of depending on it.

[ Upstream commit ebd89a2d0675f1325c2be5b7576fd8cb7e8defd0 ]

ah4 input processing uses the asynchronous hash crypto API which
supplies an error code as part of the operation completion but
the error code was being ignored.

Treat a crypto API error indication as a verification failure.

While a crypto API reported error would almost certainly result
in a memcpy of the digest failing anyway and thus the security
risk seems minor, performing a memory compare on what might be
uninitialized memory is wrong.

[ Upstream commit f169fd695b192dd7b23aff8e69d25a1bc881bbfa ]

After adding the following nft rule, then ping 224.0.0.1:
  # nft add rule netdev t c pkttype host counter

The warning complain message will be printed out again and again:
  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 10182 at net/netfilter/nft_meta.c:163 \

So we should deal with PACKET_LOOPBACK in netdev family too. For ipv4,
convert it to PACKET_BROADCAST/MULTICAST according to the destination
address's type; For ipv6, convert it to PACKET_MULTICAST directly.

commit 1137b5e2529a8f5ca8ee709288ecba3e68044df2 upstream.

An independent security researcher, Mohamed Ghannam, has reported
this vulnerability to Beyond Security's SecuriTeam Secure Disclosure
program.

The xfrm_dump_policy_done function expects xfrm_dump_policy to
have been called at least once or it will crash.  This can be
triggered if a dump fails because the target socket's receive
buffer is full.

This patch fixes it by using the cb-&gt;start mechanism to ensure that
the initialisation is always done regardless of the buffer situation.

commit 51e13359cd5ea34acc62c90627603352956380af upstream.

If we try to connect while already connected/connecting, but
this fails, we set ssid_len=0 but leave current_bss hanging,
leading to errors.

Check all of this better, first of all ensuring that we can't
try to connect to a different SSID while connected/ing; ensure
that prev_bssid is set for re-association attempts even in the
case of the driver supporting the connect() method, and don't
reset ssid_len in the failure cases.

While at it, also reset ssid_len while disconnecting unless we
were connected and expect a disconnected event, and warn on a
successful connection without ssid_len being set.

<title>KEYS: Fix race between updating and finding a negative key</title>

commit 363b02dab09b3226f3bd1420dad9c72b79a42a76 upstream.

Consolidate KEY_FLAG_INSTANTIATED, KEY_FLAG_NEGATIVE and the rejection
error into one field such that:

 (1) The instantiation state can be modified/read atomically.

 (2) The error can be accessed atomically with the state.

 (3) The error isn't stored unioned with the payload pointers.

This deals with the problem that the state is spread over three different
objects (two bits and a separate variable) and reading or updating them
atomically isn't practical, given that not only can uninstantiated keys
change into instantiated or rejected keys, but rejected keys can also turn
into instantiated keys - and someone accessing the key might not be using
any locking.

The main side effect of this problem is that what was held in the payload
may change, depending on the state.  For instance, you might observe the
key to be in the rejected state.  You then read the cached error, but if
the key semaphore wasn't locked, the key might've become instantiated
between the two reads - and you might now have something in hand that isn't
actually an error code.

The state is now KEY_IS_UNINSTANTIATED, KEY_IS_POSITIVE or a negative error
code if the key is negatively instantiated.  The key_is_instantiated()
function is replaced with key_is_positive() to avoid confusion as negative
keys are also 'instantiated'.

Additionally, barriering is included:

 (1) Order payload-set before state-set during instantiation.

 (2) Order state-read before payload-read when using the key.

Further separate barriering is necessary if RCU is being used to access the
payload content after reading the payload pointers.

[ Upstream commit d98937f4ea713d21e0fcc345919f86c877dd8d6f ]

iwlwifi now supports RSS and can't let mac80211 track the
PS state based on the Rx frames since they can come out of
order. iwlwifi is now advertising AP_LINK_PS, and uses
explicit notifications to teach mac80211 about the PS state
of the stations and the PS poll / uAPSD trigger frames
coming our way from the peers.

Because of that, the TIM stopped being maintained in
mac80211. I tried to fix this in commit c68df2e7be0c
("mac80211: allow using AP_LINK_PS with mac80211-generated TIM IE")
but that was later reverted by Felix in commit 6c18a6b4e799
("Revert "mac80211: allow using AP_LINK_PS with mac80211-generated TIM IE")
since it broke drivers that do not implement set_tim.

Since none of the drivers that set AP_LINK_PS have the
set_tim() handler set besides iwlwifi, I can bail out in
__sta_info_recalc_tim if AP_LINK_PS AND .set_tim is not
implemented.

commit ad670233c9e1d5feb365d870e30083ef1b889177 upstream.

Define a policy for packet pattern attributes in order to fix a
potential read over the end of the buffer during nla_get_u32()
of the NL80211_PKTPAT_OFFSET attribute.

Note that the data there can always be read due to SKB allocation
(with alignment and struct skb_shared_info at the end), but the
data might be uninitialized. This could be used to leak some data
from uninitialized vmalloc() memory, but most drivers don't allow
an offset (so you'd just get -EINVAL if the data is non-zero) or
just allow it with a fixed value - 100 or 128 bytes, so anything
above that would get -EINVAL. With brcmfmac the limit is 1500 so
(at least) one byte could be obtained.

This reverts commit 02f7e4101092b88e57c73171174976c8a72a3eba, which was
commit 02f7e4101092b88e57c73171174976c8a72a3eba upstream

Turns out the backport to 4.9 was broken.
