[ Upstream commit 18129a24983906eaf2a2d448ce4b83e27091ebe2 ]

FRA_L3MDEV is defined as U8, but is being added as a U32 attribute. On
big endian architecture, this results in the l3mdev entry not being
added to the FIB rules.

<content type='text'>
When destroying a VRF device we cleanup the slaves in its ndo_uninit()
function, but that causes packets to be switched (skb-&gt;dev == vrf being
destroyed) even though we're pass the point where the VRF should be
receiving any packets while it is being dismantled. This causes a BUG_ON
to trigger if we have raw sockets (trace below).
The reason is that the inetdev of the VRF has been destroyed but we're
still sending packets up the stack with it, so let's free the slaves in
the dellink callback as David Ahern suggested.

Note that this fix doesn't prevent packets from going up when the VRF
device is admin down.

<content type='text'>
DST_NOCACHE flag check has been removed from dst_release() and
dst_hold_safe() in a previous patch because all the dst are now ref
counted properly and can be released based on refcnt only.
Looking at the rest of the DST_NOCACHE use, all of them can now be
removed or replaced with other checks.
So this patch gets rid of all the DST_NOCACHE usage and remove this flag
completely.

<title>ipv6: take dst-&gt;__refcnt for insertion into fib6 tree</title>

<id>urn:sha1:1cfb71eeb12047bcdbd3e6730ffed66e810a0855</id>
<content type='text'>
In IPv6 routing code, struct rt6_info is created for each static route
and RTF_CACHE route and inserted into fib6 tree. In both cases, dst
ref count is not taken.
As explained in the previous patch, this leads to the need of the dst
garbage collector.

This patch holds ref count of dst before inserting the route into fib6
tree and properly releases the dst when deleting it from the fib6 tree
as a preparation in order to fully get rid of dst gc later.

Also, correct fib6_age() logic to check dst-&gt;__refcnt to be 1 to indicate
no user is referencing the dst.

And remove dst_hold() in vrf_rt6_create() as ip6_dst_alloc() already puts
dst-&gt;__refcnt to 1.

It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *,
and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not.

Make these functions return void * and remove all the casts across
the tree, adding a (u8 *) cast only where the unsigned char pointer
was used directly, all done with the following spatch:

    @@
    expression SKB, LEN;
    typedef u8;
    identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum };
    @@
    - *(fn(SKB, LEN))
    + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN)

    @@
    expression E, SKB, LEN;
    identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum };
    type T;

    identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum };
    @@
    - fn(SKB, LEN)[0]

Note that the last part there converts from push(...)[0] to the
more idiomatic *(u8 *)push(...).

Commit 1aa6c4f6b8cd8 ("net: vrf: Add l3mdev rules on first device create")
adds the l3mdev FIB rule the first time a VRF device is created. However,
it only creates the rule once and only in the namespace the first device
is created - which may not be init_net. Fix by using the net_generic
capability to make the add_fib_rules flag per network namespace.

<title>net: Fix inconsistent teardown and release of private netdev state.</title>

<id>urn:sha1:cf124db566e6b036b8bcbe8decbed740bdfac8c6</id>
<content type='text'>
Network devices can allocate reasources and private memory using
netdev_ops-&gt;ndo_init().  However, the release of these resources
can occur in one of two different places.

Either netdev_ops-&gt;ndo_uninit() or netdev-&gt;destructor().

The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon
whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it
is safe to perform the freeing.

netdev_ops-&gt;ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the
NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast
address lists are flushed.

netdev-&gt;destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the
netdev references all go away.

Further complicating the situation is that netdev-&gt;destructor()
almost universally does also a free_netdev().

This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice().
Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing
of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice()
fails.

If netdev_ops-&gt;ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside
of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops-&gt;ndo_uninit().  But
it is not able to invoke netdev-&gt;destructor().

This is because netdev-&gt;destructor() will do a free_netdev() and
then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same.

However, this means that the resources that would normally be released
by netdev-&gt;destructor() will not be.

Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by
invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice()
fails.

Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks.

Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what
private things need to be freed up by netdev-&gt;destructor() and whether
the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev().

netdev-&gt;priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private
resources that used to be freed by netdev-&gt;destructor(), except for
free_netdev().

netdev-&gt;needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether
free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice().

Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after
ndo_ops-&gt;ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops-&gt;ndo_uninit()
and netdev-&gt;priv_destructor().

And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke
netdev-&gt;priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev().

<id>urn:sha1:1a4a5bf52a4adb477adb075e5afce925824ad132</id>
<content type='text'>
The current codes only deal with the case that the skb is dropped, it
may meet one use-after-free issue when NF_HOOK returns 0 that means
the skb is stolen by one netfilter rule or hook.

When one netfilter rule or hook stoles the skb and return NF_STOLEN,
it means the skb is taken by the rule, and other modules should not
touch this skb ever. Maybe the skb is queued or freed directly by the
rule.

Now uses the nf_hook instead of NF_HOOK to get the result of netfilter,
and check the return value of nf_hook. Only when its value equals 1, it
means the skb could go ahead. Or reset the skb as NULL.

BTW, because vrf_rcv_finish is empty function, so needn't invoke it
even though nf_hook returns 1. But we need to modify vrf_rcv_finish
to deal with the NF_STOLEN case.

There are two cases when skb is stolen.
1. The skb is stolen and freed directly.
   There is nothing we need to do, and vrf_rcv_finish isn't invoked.
2. The skb is queued and reinjected again.
   The vrf_rcv_finish would be invoked as okfn, so need to free the
   skb in it.
