2025-08-21vsock/virtio: Fix message iterator handling on transmit pathWill Deacon
Commit 6693731487a8 ("vsock/virtio: Allocate nonlinear SKBs for handling large transmit buffers") converted the virtio vsock transmit path to utilise nonlinear SKBs when handling large buffers. As part of this change, virtio_transport_fill_skb() was updated to call skb_copy_datagram_from_iter() instead of memcpy_from_msg() as the latter expects a single destination buffer and cannot handle nonlinear SKBs correctly. Unfortunately, during this conversion, I overlooked the error case when the copying function returns -EFAULT due to a fault on the input buffer in userspace. In this case, memcpy_from_msg() reverts the iterator to its initial state thanks to copy_from_iter_full() whereas skb_copy_datagram_from_iter() leaves the iterator partially advanced. This results in a WARN_ONCE() from the vsock code, which expects the iterator to stay in sync with the number of bytes transmitted so that virtio_transport_send_pkt_info() can return -EFAULT when it is called again: ------------[ cut here ]------------ 'send_pkt()' returns 0, but 65536 expected WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 5503 at net/vmw_vsock/virtio_transport_common.c:428 virtio_transport_send_pkt_info+0xd11/0xf00 net/vmw_vsock/virtio_transport_common.c:426 Modules linked in: CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 5503 Comm: syz.0.17 Not tainted 6.16.0-syzkaller-12063-g37816488247d #0 PREEMPT(full) Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.16.3-debian-1.16.3-2~bpo12+1 04/01/2014 Call virtio_transport_fill_skb_full() to restore the previous iterator behaviour.

2025-08-21net: Introduce skb_copy_datagram_from_iter_full()Will Deacon
In a similar manner to copy_from_iter()/copy_from_iter_full(), introduce skb_copy_datagram_from_iter_full() which reverts the iterator to its initial state when returning an error. A subsequent fix for a vsock regression will make use of this new function.

2025-08-21tls: fix handling of zero-length records on the rx_listJakub Kicinski
Each recvmsg() call must process either - only contiguous DATA records (any number of them) - one non-DATA record If the next record has different type than what has already been processed we break out of the main processing loop. If the record has already been decrypted (which may be the case for TLS 1.3 where we don't know type until decryption) we queue the pending record to the rx_list. Next recvmsg() will pick it up from there. Queuing the skb to rx_list after zero-copy decrypt is not possible, since in that case we decrypted directly to the user space buffer, and we don't have an skb to queue (darg.skb points to the ciphertext skb for access to metadata like length). Only data records are allowed zero-copy, and we break the processing loop after each non-data record. So we should never zero-copy and then find out that the record type has changed. The corner case we missed is when the initial record comes from rx_list, and it's zero length.

The panic happens in br_dev_queue_push_xmit() once it receives a corrupted skb with ETH header already pushed in linear data. When it attempts the skb_push() call, there's not enough headroom and skb_push() panics. The corrupted skb is put on the queue by HSR layer, which makes a sequence of unintended transformations when it receives a specific corrupted HSR frame (with incomplete TAG). Fix it by dropping and consuming frames that are not long enough to contain both ethernet and hsr headers. Alternative fix would be to check for enough headroom before skb_push() in br_dev_queue_push_xmit(). In the reproducer, this is injected via AF_PACKET, but I don't easily see why it couldn't be sent over the wire from adjacent network. Further Details: In the reproducer, the following network interface chain is set up: ┌────────────────┐ ┌────────────────┐ │ veth0_to_hsr ├───┤ hsr_slave0 ┼───┐ └────────────────┘ └────────────────┘ │ │ ┌──────┐ ├─┤ hsr0 ├───┐ │ └──────┘ │ ┌────────────────┐ ┌────────────────┐ │ │┌────────┐ │ veth1_to_hsr ┼───┤ hsr_slave1 ├───┘ └┤ │ └────────────────┘ └────────────────┘ ┌┼ bridge │ ││ │ │└────────┘ │ ┌───────┐ │ │ ... ├──────┘ └───────┘ To trigger the events leading up to crash, reproducer sends a corrupted HSR frame with incomplete TAG, via AF_PACKET socket on 'veth0_to_hsr'. The first HSR-layer function to process this frame is hsr_handle_frame(). It and then checks if the protocol is ETH_P_PRP or ETH_P_HSR. If it is, it calls skb_set_network_header(skb, ETH_HLEN + HSR_HLEN), without checking that the skb is long enough. For the crashing frame it is not, and hence the skb->network_header and skb->mac_len fields are set incorrectly, pointing after the end of the linear buffer. I will call this a BUG#1 and it is what is addressed by this patch. In the crashing scenario before the fix, the skb continues to go down the hsr path as follows. hsr_handle_frame() then calls this sequence hsr_forward_skb() fill_frame_info() hsr->proto_ops->fill_frame_info() hsr_fill_frame_info() hsr_fill_frame_info() contains a check that intends to check whether the skb actually contains the HSR header. But the check relies on the skb->mac_len field which was erroneously setup due to BUG#1, so the check passes and the execution continues back in the hsr_forward_skb(): hsr_forward_skb() hsr_forward_do() hsr->proto_ops->get_untagged_frame() hsr_get_untagged_frame() create_stripped_skb_hsr() In create_stripped_skb_hsr(), a copy of the skb is created and is further corrupted by operation that attempts to strip the HSR tag in a call to __pskb_copy(). The skb enters create_stripped_skb_hsr() with ethernet header pushed in linear buffer. The skb_pull(skb_in, HSR_HLEN) thus pulls 6 bytes of ethernet header into the headroom, creating skb_in with a headroom of size 8. The subsequent __pskb_copy() then creates an skb with headroom of just 2 and skb->len of just 12, this is how it looks after the copy: gdb) p skb->len $10 = 12 (gdb) p skb->data $11 = (unsigned char *) 0xffff888041e45382 "\252\252\252\252\252!\210\373", (gdb) p skb->head $12 = (unsigned char *) 0xffff888041e45380 "" It seems create_stripped_skb_hsr() assumes that ETH header is pulled in the headroom when it's entered, because it just pulls HSR header on top. But that is not the case in our code-path and we end up with the corrupted skb instead. I will call this BUG#2 *I got confused here because it seems that under no conditions can create_stripped_skb_hsr() work well, the assumption it makes is not true during the processing of hsr frames - since the skb_push() in hsr_handle_frame to skb_pull in hsr_deliver_master(). I wonder whether I missed something here.* Next, the execution arrives in hsr_deliver_master(). It calls skb_pull(ETH_HLEN), which just returns NULL - the SKB does not have enough space for the pull (as it only has 12 bytes in total at this point). *The skb_pull() here further suggests that ethernet header is meant to be pushed through the whole hsr processing and create_stripped_skb_hsr() should pull it before doing the HSR header pull.* hsr_deliver_master() then puts the corrupted skb on the queue, it is then picked up from there by bridge frame handling layer and finally lands in br_dev_queue_push_xmit where it panics.

While this works, it gets complicated with all the extra checks if all member before map are larger than the required alignment. Instead of saving the aligned pointer, just save the returned pointer and align the map pointer in nft_pipapo_lookup() before using it. The alignment later on shouldn't be that expensive. With this change, the align_off can be removed and the pointer can be passed to kfree() as is.

As requested at https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/CADvbK_fmCRARc8VznH8cQa-QKaCOQZ6yFbF=1-VDK=zRqv_cXw@mail.gmail.com/ and https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20250818084345.708ac796@kernel.org/ , go further and start rejecting 'md5' and 'sha1' completely.

2025-08-19sctp: Convert cookie authentication to use HMAC-SHA256Eric Biggers
Convert SCTP cookies to use HMAC-SHA256, instead of the previous choice of the legacy algorithms HMAC-MD5 and HMAC-SHA1. Simplify and optimize the code by using the HMAC-SHA256 library instead of crypto_shash, and by preparing the HMAC key when it is generated instead of per-operation. This doesn't break compatibility, since the cookie format is an implementation detail, not part of the SCTP protocol itself. Note that the cookie size doesn't change either. The HMAC field was already 32 bytes, even though previously at most 20 bytes were actually compared. 32 bytes exactly fits an untruncated HMAC-SHA256 value. So, although we could safely truncate the MAC to something slightly shorter, for now just keep the cookie size the same. I also considered SipHash, but that would generate only 8-byte MACs. An 8-byte MAC *might* suffice here. However, there's quite a lot of information in the SCTP cookies: more than in TCP SYN cookies. So absent an analysis that occasional forgeries of all that information is okay in SCTP, I errored on the side of caution. Remove HMAC-MD5 and HMAC-SHA1 as options, since the new HMAC-SHA256 option is just better. It's faster as well as more secure. For example, benchmarking on x86_64, cookie authentication is now nearly 3x as fast as the previous default choice and implementation of HMAC-MD5. Also just make the kernel always support cookie authentication if SCTP is supported at all, rather than making it optional in the build. (It was sort of optional before, but it didn't really work properly. E.g., a kernel with CONFIG_SCTP_COOKIE_HMAC_MD5=n still supported HMAC-MD5 cookie authentication if CONFIG_CRYPTO_HMAC and CONFIG_CRYPTO_MD5 happened to be enabled in the kconfig for other reasons.)

2025-08-19sctp: Use HMAC-SHA1 and HMAC-SHA256 library for chunk authenticationEric Biggers
For SCTP chunk authentication, use the HMAC-SHA1 and HMAC-SHA256 library functions instead of crypto_shash. This is simpler and faster. There's no longer any need to pre-allocate 'crypto_shash' objects; the SCTP code now simply calls into the HMAC code directly. As part of this, make SCTP always support both HMAC-SHA1 and HMAC-SHA256. Previously, it only guaranteed support for HMAC-SHA1. However, HMAC-SHA256 tended to be supported too anyway, as it was supported if CONFIG_CRYPTO_SHA256 was enabled elsewhere in the kconfig.

2025-08-19mptcp: Fix up subflow's memcg when CONFIG_SOCK_CGROUP_DATA=n.Kuniyuki Iwashima
When sk_alloc() allocates a socket, mem_cgroup_sk_alloc() sets sk->sk_memcg based on the current task. MPTCP subflow socket creation is triggered from userspace or an in-kernel worker. In the latter case, sk->sk_memcg is not what we want. So, we fix it up from the parent socket's sk->sk_memcg in mptcp_attach_cgroup(). Although the code is placed under #ifdef CONFIG_MEMCG, it is buried under #ifdef CONFIG_SOCK_CGROUP_DATA. The two configs are orthogonal. If CONFIG_MEMCG is enabled without CONFIG_SOCK_CGROUP_DATA, the subflow's memory usage is not charged correctly. Let's move the code out of the wrong ifdef guard. Note that sk->sk_memcg is freed in sk_prot_free() and the parent sk holds the refcnt of memcg->css here, so we don't need to use css_tryget().

2025-08-19net: When removing nexthops, don't call synchronize_net if it is not necessaryChristoph Paasch
When removing a nexthop, commit 90f33bffa382 ("nexthops: don't modify published nexthop groups") added a call to synchronize_rcu() (later changed to _net()) to make sure everyone sees the new nexthop-group before the rtnl-lock is released. When one wants to delete a large number of groups and nexthops, it is fastest to first flush the groups (ip nexthop flush groups) and then flush the nexthops themselves (ip -6 nexthop flush). As that way the groups don't need to be rebalanced. However, `ip -6 nexthop flush` will still take a long time if there is a very large number of nexthops because of the call to synchronize_net(). Now, if there are no more groups, there is no point in calling synchronize_net(). So, let's skip that entirely by checking if nh->grp_list is empty.

2025-08-19net: Make nexthop-dumps scale linearly with the number of nexthopsChristoph Paasch
When we have a (very) large number of nexthops, they do not fit within a single message. rtm_dump_walk_nexthops() thus will be called repeatedly and ctx->idx is used to avoid dumping the same nexthops again. The approach in which we avoid dumping the same nexthops is by basically walking the entire nexthop rb-tree from the left-most node until we find a node whose id is >= s_idx. That does not scale well. Instead of this inefficient approach, rather go directly through the tree to the nexthop that should be dumped (the one whose nh_id >= s_idx). This allows us to find the relevant node in O(log(n)).

2025-08-19net/sched: sch_dualpi2: Run prob update timer in softirq to avoid deadlockVictor Nogueira
When a user creates a dualpi2 qdisc it automatically sets a timer. This timer will run constantly and update the qdisc's probability field. The issue is that the timer acquires the qdisc root lock and runs in hardirq. The qdisc root lock is also acquired in dev.c whenever a packet arrives for this qdisc. Since the dualpi2 timer callback runs in hardirq, it may interrupt the packet processing running in softirq. If that happens and it runs on the same CPU, it will acquire the same lock and cause a deadlock.

2025-08-18mptcp: disable add_addr retransmission when timeout is 0Geliang Tang
When add_addr_timeout was set to 0, this caused the ADD_ADDR to be retransmitted immediately, which looks like a buggy behaviour. Instead, interpret 0 as "no retransmissions needed". The documentation is updated to explicitly state that setting the timeout to 0 disables retransmission.

2025-08-18mptcp: pm: kernel: flush: do not reset ADD_ADDR limitMatthieu Baerts (NGI0)
A flush of the MPTCP endpoints should not affect the MPTCP limits. In other words, 'ip mptcp endpoint flush' should not change 'ip mptcp limits'. But it was the case: the MPTCP_PM_ATTR_RCV_ADD_ADDRS (add_addr_accepted) limit was reset by accident. Removing the reset of this counter during a flush fixes this issue.

2025-08-18mptcp: drop skb if MPTCP skb extension allocation failsChristoph Paasch
When skb_ext_add(skb, SKB_EXT_MPTCP) fails in mptcp_incoming_options(), we used to return true, letting the segment proceed through the TCP receive path without a DSS mapping. Such segments can leave inconsistent mapping state and trigger a mid-stream fallback to TCP, which in testing collapsed (by artificially forcing failures in skb_ext_add) throughput to zero. Return false instead so the TCP input path drops the skb (see tcp_data_queue() and step-7 processing). This is the safer choice under memory pressure: it preserves MPTCP correctness and provides backpressure to the sender. Control packets remain unaffected: ACK updates and DATA_FIN handling happen before attempting the extension allocation, and tcp_reset() continues to ignore the return value. With this change, MPTCP continues to work at high throughput if we artificially inject failures into skb_ext_add.

2025-08-18net: gso: Forbid IPv6 TSO with extensions on devices with only IPV6_CSUMJakub Ramaseuski
When performing Generic Segmentation Offload (GSO) on an IPv6 packet that contains extension headers, the kernel incorrectly requests checksum offload if the egress device only advertises NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM feature, which has a strict contract: it supports checksum offload only for plain TCP or UDP over IPv6 and explicitly does not support packets with extension headers. The current GSO logic violates this contract by failing to disable the feature for packets with extension headers, such as those used in GREoIPv6 tunnels. This violation results in the device being asked to perform an operation it cannot support, leading to a `skb_warn_bad_offload` warning and a collapse of network throughput. While device TSO/USO is correctly bypassed in favor of software GSO for these packets, the GSO stack must be explicitly told not to request checksum offload. Mask NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM, NETIF_F_TSO6 and NETIF_F_GSO_UDP_L4 in gso_features_check if the IPv6 header contains extension headers to compute checksum in software. The exception is a BIG TCP extension, which, as stated in commit 68e068cabd2c6c53 ("net: reenable NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM offload for BIG TCP packets"): "The feature is only enabled on devices that support BIG TCP TSO. The header is only present for PF_PACKET taps like tcpdump, and not transmitted by physical devices." kernel log output (truncated): WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 5273 at net/core/dev.c:3535 skb_warn_bad_offload+0x81/0x140 ...
