queue_userspace_packet() borrows the packet skb -- it only copies it into
a private netlink message (user_skb) and does not own it; on return
do_execute_actions() keeps forwarding it through the flow's remaining
actions. Its error path nevertheless calls skb_tx_error(skb), which via
skb_zcopy_clear() does skb_shinfo(skb)->flags &= ~SKBFL_ALL_ZEROCOPY,
stripping SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG from that live skb (skb_tx_error()'s kerneldoc
says "skb must be freed afterwards").
For a MSG_ZEROCOPY skb carrying page-cache frags, SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG is
what makes esp_input() skb_cow_data() before in-place AEAD; once it is
stripped a later local ESP-in-UDP delivery decrypts in place over pages
the sender does not own -- an unprivileged page-cache write (the
"Fragnesia" primitive).
do_execute_actions() ignores output_userspace()'s return value, so any
action after a failed USERSPACE upcall inherits the stripped skb.
Move the skb_tx_error() to the flow-miss drop path - the "default"
branch of ovs_dp_process_packet()'s switch(error), before kfree_skb().
The call has been here since commit 36d5fe6a0007 ("core, nfqueue,
openvswitch: Orphan frags in skb_zerocopy and handle errors") but was
harmless until esp_input() began relying on SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG to gate
in-place decrypt; only then did stripping it on a still-forwarded skb
become a page-cache write primitive.

Packet processing uses CT limit state under RCU, while netns teardown
frees that state under ovs_mutex. The CT limit pointer was neither removed
from readers nor protected by a grace period, allowing packet processing to
dereference the freed state.
An unprivileged user can trigger this bug from a user and network
namespace, causing a slab-use-after-free in ovs_ct_execute() when the
netns is torn down.
Publish the CT limit pointer through RCU, remove it before teardown, and
wait for readers before freeing its contents. Keep ovs_mutex around
individual CT limit updates, and use the RCU read-side lock while GET
traverses the RCU-protected limit lists.
Netns teardown detaches the RCU-protected CT limit state in the pernet
.pre_exit callback while holding ovs_mutex. The pernet core guarantees an
RCU grace period between the .pre_exit and .exit callbacks, so the .exit
callback completes the teardown without adding any extra synchronization.
The netlink command handlers do not need NULL checks because the userspace
netlink socket holds an active reference to its network namespace while a
request is processed. The per-netns exit path therefore cannot run
concurrently with SET, DEL, or GET for that socket's namespace.

skb_zerocopy() fails to propagate the unreadable flag when copying
unreadable fragments, causing target skbs to appear as readable memory.
This patch fixes the flag propagation. Additionally, it returns -EFAULT
if readable fragments are mixed with unreadable fragments during
extraction, and returns -EFAULT in openvswitch queue_userspace_packet().

ovs_ct_init() acquires a connlabels reference before initializing the
conntrack limit state. If ovs_ct_limit_init() fails, its error is returned
directly. The pernet core does not invoke the exit callback for the
operation whose initialization failed, so ovs_ct_exit() cannot drop the
reference.
This leaves labels_used elevated when Open vSwitch pernet registration
fails for an existing network namespace. Subsequent conntrack entries in
that namespace may allocate label extensions even though Open vSwitch
failed to register.
Drop the connlabels reference before returning a conntrack limit
initialization error. ovs_ct_limit_init() already releases its partial
state, and the original error remains unchanged.
This issue was found by a static analysis checker and confirmed by
manual source review.

The commit in the Fixes tag below made so flow->mask free is scheduled
via RCU right after it is removed from the flow table. The pointer
stays in the flow structure and it can be accessible while in the same
RCU critical section. This is done to avoid requiring ovs_mutex for
the ovs_flow_free().
However, while removing the flow during processing of CMD_DEL, we do
not take RCU read lock before the removal, and ovs_flow_cmd_fill_info()
uses the flow->mask pointer afterwards. The RCU read lock is taken,
but it's already late at that point. The comment on that line
acknowledges that the lock is cosmetic and doesn't serve a real purpose.
This leads to use-after-free if the RCU grace period passes between
removal and the filling. It is a short race window, but it is there
and can lead to a real crash in case memory allocation for the info
takes a bit longer:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netfilter/nf-next
Pablo Neira Ayuso says:
====================
Netfilter updates for net
This includes an enhancement to detect ct memleaks easier via
DEBUG_NET and flowtable preparation patches for IPv4 over IPV6
and vice-versa. This also includes a fix for the nft_ct custom
expectation support.
1) Add DEBUG_NET_WARN_ON_ONCE to nf_ct_set() to spot ct memleaks.
2) Pass struct net_device_path_ctx to dev_fill_forward_path() to
make it easier to pass more parameters to this function.
From Lorenzo Bianconi.
3) Add ether_type field to net_device_path context structucture.
4) Rename tun.l3_proto field to tun.inner_proto.
5) Rename ctx.tun.proto to ctx.tun.inner_proto.
6) Store ether_type in flowtable context.
7) Move IPv4 and IPv6 xmit path to a helper function.
8) Move encapsulation header parser out of the flowtable lookup
function.
9) Rework nft_ct custom expectation support to address a possible
reallocation of ct extension area while expectation list also
contains expectations. Move datapath to a ct helper to fix it.
10) Ensure timeout is always lowered for the non-closing RST case
in the TCP connection tracking.
11) Bail out when inserting already dead expectation, this should
not ever happen, hence report it via DEBUG_NET.
12) Comestic updates for improving the conntrack selftest dump and
flush userspace program, from Qingshuang Fu.

Since removal of legacy tunnel vport types only the built-in ones
remain. So, there is no need for the extra infrastructure for dynamic
module loading. Can be reinstated in the future if we need a new
vport type.
Note: It is technically possible that someone has an out-of-tree
module named vport-type-N that implements a different vport type.
At this time we're not aware of anyone doing that. People running
out-of-tree modules normally just have an out-of-tree openvswitch
module as a whole. And there are actually no supported out-of-tree
implementations of the openvswitch module known to the community.

Since removal of tunnel vport types, there aren't any vports that
support options. Let's remove the options-related infrastructure.
Can be reinstated if we ever need a new vport type or if we need extra
options for the existing ones. The uAPI attribute remains.
Clarification comment is added to highlight that none of the supported
vports support options at the moment.
If the options are provided, the code now directly replies with
-EOPNOTSUPP to keep the behavior the same for remaining vport types.
Note: It is technically possible that someone has an out-of-tree module
named vport-type-N that implements a different vport type and they have
options for this vport type. However, our message size calculations do
not account for whatever options such a port would have and so it is
dangerous to load such a module without modifying the code in the main
datapath.c, unless the options are smaller than the ones we had for
vxlan. A more robust solution would be to have a different version of
the entire openvswitch module instead, so the use case of a separate
vport-type-N loaded with the upstream openvswitch module is unlikely.
At this time we're not aware of anyone doing that.

ovs-vswitchd doesn't use OVS_VPORT_TYPE_GRE/VXLAN/GENEVE with the
Linux kernel module since adding support for standard tunnel devices
with COLLECT_METADATA back in 2017. The code to use them was only
activated as a fallback for old kernels, so not used in practice. And
it is now fully removed in the upcoming OVS 4.0 release.
Modern way to use tunnels with OVS is to create standard tunnel ports
with RTM_NEWLINK + COLLECT_METADATA and add them as OVS_VPORT_TYPE_NETDEV.
Device reference management and the netlink options parsing for these
legacy port types is complicated and was a CVE magnet in the previous
release cycles. Existence of these modules also makes locking analysis
for geneve module and other core tunnel devices unnecessarily more
complicated, especially in light of migration to per-netns locking.
Since there are no actual users for these port types for a very long
time, let's just remove the support entirely. There is no practical
reason to run OVS from 2017 on a recent kernel.
While it's technically a uAPI change in some sense, from the user's
perspective this removal looks indistinguishable from the kernel built
with CONFIG_OPENVSWITCH_GENEVE/VXLAN/GRE disabled. And it seems like
removal of unused drivers/modules is not a rare event these days.
A comment is added to the uAPI header noting that standard RTM_NEWLINK
with COLLECT_METADATA followed by OVS_VPORT_CMD_NEW with the simple
OVS_VPORT_TYPE_NETDEV should be used instead.
Modules responsible for these tunnel ports are removed as well as
selftests covering this functionality. Further cleanups will follow.

ovs_flow_cmd_new() preallocates the optional reply skb before it takes
ovs_mutex and before it knows which existing flow will be updated.
That is normally fine because the skb is sized from the request flow
identifier. That identifier also becomes the inserted flow's identifier.
For updates, however, a request with a UFID may miss the UFID lookup and
then fall back to the flow key lookup. That lookup can legitimately find
an existing key-identified flow. UFIDs are optional and the flow key is
the primary identifier.
For echoed replies, ovs_flow_cmd_fill_info() writes the matched flow's
identifier, not the request identifier used for the preallocation. A short
request UFID can therefore leave too little room for the key identifier.
The fill can then fail with -EMSGSIZE and hit the BUG_ON(error < 0) in the
update path.
Once the update target has been resolved, reallocate the reply skb if the
matched flow needs a larger reply than the request identifier allowed. Do
this before replacing the actions so the request can still fail cleanly if
the rare extra allocation fails.

When a packet arrives on an ARPHRD_NONE device (e.g. TUN),
ovs_flow_key_extract() trusts the user-provided skb->protocol field: if
it is ETH_P_TEB, the packet is classified as MAC_PROTO_ETHERNET and
key_extract() is called without ensuring the skb has ETH_HLEN (14) bytes
of linear data. key_extract() unconditionally pulls 2 * ETH_ALEN bytes
for MAC addresses and parse_ethertype() pulls 2 more, either of which
triggers a kernel BUG in __skb_pull() when the linear area is too small.

While attaching a newly created meter attach_meter() function makes
the new meter visible to other CPUs but can still fail afterwards.
On failure, it detaches the meter back and returns an error.
However, this is an unexpected behavior for the ovs_meter_cmd_set()
that uses a plain kfree(meter) on attach failure without waiting for
RCU readers to stop using it, assuming it was never visible.
This is never a problem for ovs-vswitchd as it always creates meters
before creating any flows that use them. But the UAF can be triggered
with a custom application using uAPI:

ovs_ct_execute() always steals or frees the skb on failure while
ovs_flow_key_update() does not. So, if it fails and we return right
away, the skb ends up leaked.
Fix that by breaking instead and letting the common error handling
code at the bottom of the loop to free the skb properly.
This is a very unlikely scenario as it requires the packet to become
unparseable by applying a set of actions on a previously parseable skb,
but should be fixed nevertheless.

OVS_ACTION_ATTR_TRUNC currently stores a delta from the original skb
length in OVS_CB(skb)->cutlen. When a later userspace action segments a
GSO skb, queue_gso_packets() reuses that delta for each smaller segment.
A segment can then reach queue_userspace_packet() with cutlen greater
than skb->len, underflowing the length passed to skb_zerocopy().
Store the maximum preserved length instead and bound each consumer
against the current skb length. Use U32_MAX as the no-truncation
sentinel so the value remains valid if skb geometry changes before a
consumer handles it.

Open vSwitch stores generated flow actions as nlattrs, whose nla_len
field is u16. Commit a1e64addf3ff ("net: openvswitch: remove
misbehaving actions length check") allowed the total sw_flow_actions
stream to grow beyond 64 KiB, which is valid, but also removed the last
guard preventing a generated nested action attribute from exceeding
U16_MAX.
An oversized generated container can thus be closed with a truncated
nla_len. A later dump or teardown then walks a structurally different
stream than the one that was validated. In particular, an oversized
nested CLONE/CT action may cause subsequent bytes in the generated
stream to be interpreted as independent actions.
Keep the larger total-action-stream behavior, but make nested action
close reject generated containers that do not fit in nla_len, and return
the error through all callers. For recursive SAMPLE, CLONE, DEC_TTL, and
CHECK_PKT_LEN builders, trim resource-owning action-list tails in reverse
construction order before discarding failed wrappers, so resources copied
into the rejected tails are released before the wrappers are removed.
Most failed outer wrappers are discarded by truncating actions_len after
child resources have been released. CHECK_PKT_LEN also trims its parent
after branch resources are gone. SET/TUNNEL close failures unwind their
known tun_dst ownership directly, and SET_TO_MASKED has no external
ownership and truncates on close failure.

ct_limit_set() is documented as being called with ovs_mutex held. It
walks the ct limit hlist with hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(), but the
iterator does not currently pass the OVS lockdep condition used
elsewhere for RCU-protected OVS objects.
Pass lockdep_ovsl_is_held() to the iterator. This matches the function's
existing caller contract and lets CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST distinguish the
ovs_mutex-protected update path from the RCU read-side ct_limit_get()
path.
This was found by our static analysis tool and then manually reviewed
against the current tree. In the reviewed CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST triage
run, the writer-side ct limit update produced the expected "RCU-list
traversed in non-reader section!!" warning while ovs_mutex was held,
with the stack matching ct_limit_set() and ovs_ct_limit_set_zone_limit().
The change is limited to documenting the existing protection contract.
This is a lockdep annotation cleanup. It does not change the conntrack
limit list update or release behavior.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says:
====================
Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next.
More specifically, this contains conncount rework to address AI related
reports, assorted Netfiter updates and two small incremental updates on
IPVS:
1) Replace old obsolete workqueues (system_wq, system_unbound_wq)
in IPVS, from Marco Crivellari.
2) Replace WARN_ON{_ONCE} by DEBUG_NET_WARN_ON_ONCE in nf_tables.
In the recent years, reporters say that the use of WARN_ON{_ONCE}
in conjunction with panic_on_warn=1 results in DoS. Let's replace
it by DEBUG_NET_WARN_ON_ONCE so this is only exercised by test
infrastructure and fuzzers, while also providing context to AI
agents. From Fernando F. Mancera.
Five patches from Florian Westphal to address AI reports in the conncount
infrastructures:
3) Fix missing rcu read lock section when calling
__ovs_ct_limit_get_zone_limit().
4) Add a dedicate lock per rbtree tree, this increases memory
usage but it should improve scalability.
5) Add a helper function to find the rbtree node, no functional
changes are intented.
6) Add sequence counter to detect concurrent tree modifications
and retry lookups.
7) Add locks to GC conncount walk and address other nitpicks.
Then, several assorted updates:
8) Defensive Tree-wide addition of NULL checks for ct extensions.
9) Bail out if flowtable bypass cannot be fully set up from the
flow offload expression, instead of lazy building a likely
incomplete one.
10) Fix documentation for the new conn_max sysctl toggle in IPVS.
11) Add nf_dev_xmit_recursion*() helpers and use them, to address
recent AI reports.

rcu_derefence_raw() should not have been used here, it concealed this bug.
Its used because struct rb_node lacks __rcu annotated pointers, so plain
rcu_derefence causes sparse warnings.
The major tradeoff is that rcu_derefence_raw() doesn't warn when the caller
isn't in a rcu read section.
Extend the rcu read lock scope accordingly and cause sparse warnings,
those warnings are the lesser evil.

After the patch in the "Fixes" tag, the allocation of the "reply" skb
can happen either before or after locking the ovs_mutex.
However, error cleanups still follow the classical reversed order,
assuming "reply" is allocated before locking: it is freed after unlocking.
If "reply" allocation happens after locking the mutex and it fails,
"reply" is left with an ERR_PTR, and execution jumps to the correspondent
cleanup stage which will try to free an invalid pointer.
Fix this by setting the pointer to NULL after having saved its error
value.

Sashiko reports that it is technically possible that we got the device
reference, but by the time we're linking it to the OVS datapath, it
may be already in the process of being deleted. In this case if the
notifier wins the race for RTNL, it will see that the device is not
yet in the OVS datapath (ovs_netdev_get_vport() will fail in the
dp_device_event()) and will do nothing. Then the ovs_netdev_link()
will take the RTNL and link the unregistering device to OVS datapath.
Eventually, netdev_wait_allrefs_any() will re-broadcast the event and
the device will be properly detached, but it will take at least a
second before that happens, so it's not something we should rely on.
Let's avoid linking the non-registered device in the first place.
Note: As per documentation, RTNL doesn't protect the reg_state, but
it actually does for all the state transitions we care about here,
so it should not be necessary to use READ_ONCE or taking the instance
lock. We can still do that, but we have a few more places even in
this file where the reg_state is accessed without those while under
RTNL, and many more places like this across the kernel code, so it
might make more sense to change all of them in a more centralized
fashion in the future, if necessary.

vports are used concurrently and protected by RCU, so netdev_put()
must happen after the RCU grace period. So, either in an RCU call or
after the synchronize_net(). The rtnl_delete_link() must happen under
RTNL and so can't be executed in RCU context. Calling synchronize_net()
while holding RTNL is not a good idea for performance and system
stability under load in general, so calling netdev_put() in RCU call
is the right solution here.
However,
when the device is deleted, rtnl_unlock() will call netdev_run_todo()
and block until all the references are gone. In the current code this
means that we never reach the call_rcu() and the vport is never freed
and the reference is never released, causing a self-deadlock on device
removal.
Fix that by moving the rcu_call() before the rtnl_unlock(), so the
scheduled RCU callback will be executed when synchronize_net() is
called from the rtnl_unlock()->netdev_run_todo() while the RTNL itself
is already released.

When a tunnel vport is created it first creates the tunnel device, e.g.,
with geneve_dev_create_fb(), then it calls ovs_netdev_link() to take a
reference and link it to the device that represents openvswitch datapath.
The creation of the device is happening under RTNL, but then RTNL is
released and re-acquired to find the device by name. It is technically
possible for the tunnel device to be re-named or deleted within that
window while RTNL is not held, and some other device created in its
place. This will cause a non-tunnel device to be referenced in the
vport and tunnel-specific functions used on it, e.g. vxlan_get_options()
that directly casts the private netdev data into a struct vxlan_dev
causing an invalid memory access:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in vxlan_get_options+0x323/0x3a0
vxlan_get_options+0x323/0x3a0
ovs_vport_cmd_new+0x6e3/0xd30
Fix that by taking a reference to the just created device before
releasing RTNL. This ensures that the device in the vport is always
the one that was just created. The search by name is only needed
for a standard vport-netdev that links pre-existing devices, so that
functionality and device type checks are moved to netdev_create().
It is also awkward that ovs_netdev_link() takes ownership of the vport
and destroys it on failure. It doesn't know the type of the port it is
dealing with, so we need to pass down the indicator that it's a tunnel,
so the link can be properly deleted on failure.
It's possible to refactor the logic to make the ovs_netdev_link() do
only the linking part and let the callers perform a proper destruction,
but it will be much more code for each legacy tunnel port type, so it
is not worth it for the bug fix.

The vport netlink reply helpers allocate a fixed-size skb with
nlmsg_new(NLMSG_DEFAULT_SIZE, ...) but serialize the full upcall PID
array via ovs_vport_get_upcall_portids(). Since
ovs_vport_set_upcall_portids() accepts any non-zero multiple of
sizeof(u32) with no upper bound, a CAP_NET_ADMIN user can install a PID
array large enough to overflow the reply buffer, causing nla_put() to
fail with -EMSGSIZE and hitting BUG_ON(err < 0). On systems with
unprivileged user namespaces enabled (e.g., Ubuntu default), this is
reachable via unshare -Urn since OVS vport mutation operations use
GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM.

The patch cited in the Fixes tag below changed the teardown code for
OVS ports to no longer unconditionally take the RTNL. After this change,
the netdev_destroy() callback can proceed immediately to the call_rcu()
invocation if the IFF_OVS_DATAPATH flag is already cleared on the
netdev.
The ovs_netdev_detach_dev() function clears the flag before completing
the unregistration, and if it gets preempted after clearing the flag (as
can happen on an -rt kernel), netdev_destroy() can complete and the
device can be freed before the unregistration completes. This leads to a
splat like:

To fix this, reorder the operations in ovs_netdev_detach_dev() to only
clear the flag after completing the other operations, and introduce an
smp_wmb() to make the ordering requirement explicit. The smp_wmb() is
paired with a full smp_mb() in netdev_destroy() to make sure the
call_rcu() invocation does not happen before the unregister operations
are visible.

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split
over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the
resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next
line.
Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.
So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the
syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed'
scripts.
The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want
whitespace cleanup anyway.

This is the exact same thing as the 'alloc_obj()' version, only much
smaller because there are a lot fewer users of the *alloc_flex()
interface.
As with alloc_obj() version, this was done entirely with mindless brute
force, using the same script, except using 'flex' in the pattern rather
than 'objs*'.

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

The openvswitch teardown code will immediately call
ovs_netdev_detach_dev() in response to a NETDEV_UNREGISTER notification.
It will then start the dp_notify_work workqueue, which will later end up
calling the vport destroy() callback. This callback takes the RTNL to do
another ovs_netdev_detach_port(), which in this case is unnecessary.
This causes extra pressure on the RTNL, in some cases leading to
"unregister_netdevice: waiting for XX to become free" warnings on
teardown.
We can straight-forwardly avoid the extra RTNL lock acquisition by
checking the device flags before taking the lock, and skip the locking
altogether if the IFF_OVS_DATAPATH flag has already been unset.

The push_nsh() action structure looks like this:
OVS_ACTION_ATTR_PUSH_NSH(OVS_KEY_ATTR_NSH(OVS_NSH_KEY_ATTR_BASE,...))
The outermost OVS_ACTION_ATTR_PUSH_NSH attribute is OK'ed by the
nla_for_each_nested() inside __ovs_nla_copy_actions(). The innermost
OVS_NSH_KEY_ATTR_BASE/MD1/MD2 are OK'ed by the nla_for_each_nested()
inside nsh_key_put_from_nlattr(). But nothing checks if the attribute
in the middle is OK. We don't even check that this attribute is the
OVS_KEY_ATTR_NSH. We just do a double unwrap with a pair of nla_data()
calls - first time directly while calling validate_push_nsh() and the
second time as part of the nla_for_each_nested() macro, which isn't
safe, potentially causing invalid memory access if the size of this
attribute is incorrect. The failure may not be noticed during
validation due to larger netlink buffer, but cause trouble later during
action execution where the buffer is allocated exactly to the size:

When using nf_conncount infrastructure for non-confirmed connections a
duplicated track is possible due to an optimization introduced since
commit d265929930e2 ("netfilter: nf_conncount: reduce unnecessary GC").
In order to fix this introduce a new conncount API that receives
directly an sk_buff struct. It fetches the tuple and zone and the
corresponding ct from it. It comes with both existing conncount variants
nf_conncount_count_skb() and nf_conncount_add_skb(). In addition remove
the old API and adjust all the users to use the new one.
This way, for each sk_buff struct it is possible to check if there is a
ct present and already confirmed. If so, skip the add operation.

The validation of the set(nsh(...)) action is completely wrong.
It runs through the nsh_key_put_from_nlattr() function that is the
same function that validates NSH keys for the flow match and the
push_nsh() action. However, the set(nsh(...)) has a very different
memory layout. Nested attributes in there are doubled in size in
case of the masked set(). That makes proper validation impossible.
There is also confusion in the code between the 'masked' flag, that
says that the nested attributes are doubled in size containing both
the value and the mask, and the 'is_mask' that says that the value
we're parsing is the mask. This is causing kernel crash on trying to
write into mask part of the match with SW_FLOW_KEY_PUT() during
validation, while validate_nsh() doesn't allocate any memory for it:

The third issue with this process is that while trying to convert
the non-masked set into masked one, validate_set() copies and doubles
the size of the OVS_KEY_ATTR_NSH as if it didn't have any nested
attributes. It should be copying each nested attribute and doubling
them in size independently. And the process must be properly reversed
during the conversion back from masked to a non-masked variant during
the flow dump.
In the end, the only two outcomes of trying to use this action are
either validation failure or a kernel crash. And if somehow someone
manages to install a flow with such an action, it will most definitely
not do what it is supposed to, since all the keys and the masks are
mixed up.
Fixing all the issues is a complex task as it requires re-writing
most of the validation code.
Given that and the fact that this functionality never worked since
introduction, let's just remove it altogether. It's better to
re-introduce it later with a proper implementation instead of trying
to fix it in stable releases.

Currently if a user enqueue a work item using schedule_delayed_work() the
used wq is "system_wq" (per-cpu wq) while queue_delayed_work() use
WORK_CPU_UNBOUND (used when a cpu is not specified). The same applies to
schedule_work() that is using system_wq and queue_work(), that makes use
again of WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.
This lack of consistentcy cannot be addressed without refactoring the API.
system_unbound_wq should be the default workqueue so as not to enforce
locality constraints for random work whenever it's not required.
Adding system_dfl_wq to encourage its use when unbound work should be used.
The old system_unbound_wq will be kept for a few release cycles.

When a packet enters OVS datapath and there is no flow to handle it,
packet goes to userspace through a MISS upcall. With per-CPU upcall
dispatch mechanism, we're using the current CPU id to select the
Netlink PID on which to send this packet. This allows us to send
packets from the same traffic flow through the same handler.
The handler will process the packet, install required flow into the
kernel and re-inject the original packet via OVS_PACKET_CMD_EXECUTE.
While handling OVS_PACKET_CMD_EXECUTE, however, we may hit a
recirculation action that will pass the (likely modified) packet
through the flow lookup again. And if the flow is not found, the
packet will be sent to userspace again through another MISS upcall.
However, the handler thread in userspace is likely running on a
different CPU core, and the OVS_PACKET_CMD_EXECUTE request is handled
in the syscall context of that thread. So, when the time comes to
send the packet through another upcall, the per-CPU dispatch will
choose a different Netlink PID, and this packet will end up processed
by a different handler thread on a different CPU.
The process continues as long as there are new recirculations, each
time the packet goes to a different handler thread before it is sent
out of the OVS datapath to the destination port. In real setups the
number of recirculations can go up to 4 or 5, sometimes more.
There is always a chance to re-order packets while processing upcalls,
because userspace will first install the flow and then re-inject the
original packet. So, there is a race window when the flow is already
installed and the second packet can match it and be forwarded to the
destination before the first packet is re-injected. But the fact that
packets are going through multiple upcalls handled by different
userspace threads makes the reordering noticeably more likely, because
we not only have a race between the kernel and a userspace handler
(which is hard to avoid), but also between multiple userspace handlers.
For example, let's assume that 10 packets got enqueued through a MISS
upcall for handler-1, it will start processing them, will install the
flow into the kernel and start re-injecting packets back, from where
they will go through another MISS to handler-2. Handler-2 will install
the flow into the kernel and start re-injecting the packets, while
handler-1 continues to re-inject the last of the 10 packets, they will
hit the flow installed by handler-2 and be forwarded without going to
the handler-2, while handler-2 still re-injects the first of these 10
packets. Given multiple recirculations and misses, these 10 packets
may end up completely mixed up on the output from the datapath.
Let's allow userspace to specify on which Netlink PID the packets
should be upcalled while processing OVS_PACKET_CMD_EXECUTE.
This makes it possible to ensure that all the packets are processed
by the same handler thread in the userspace even with them being
upcalled multiple times in the process. Packets will remain in order
since they will be enqueued to the same socket and re-injected in the
same order. This doesn't eliminate re-ordering as stated above, since
we still have a race between kernel and the userspace thread, but it
allows to eliminate races between multiple userspace threads.
Userspace knows the PID of the socket on which the original upcall is
received, so there is no need to send it up from the kernel.
Solution requires storing the value somewhere for the duration of the
packet processing. There are two potential places for this: our skb
extension or the per-CPU storage. It's not clear which is better,
so just following currently used scheme of storing this kind of things
along the skb. We still have a decent amount of space in the cb.

PERCPU_MODULE_RESERVE defines the maximum size that can by used for the

Commit 035fcdc4d240c ("openvswitch: Merge three per-CPU structures into

moved the separate alloc_percpu() invocations at module init time to a
static per-CPU variable which is allocated by the module loader.
The size of the per-CPU data section for openvswitch is 6488 bytes which
is ~80% of the available per-CPU memory. Together with a few other
modules it is easy to exhaust the available 8KiB of memory.
