Fernando Fernandez Mancera 18014147d3 netfilter: nf_tables: fix dst corruption in same register operation
For lshift and rshift, the shift operations are performed in a loop over
32-bit words. The loop calculates the shifted value and write it to dst,
and then immediately reads from src to calculate the carry for the next
iteration. Because src and dst could point to the same memory location,
the carry is incorrectly calculated using the newly modified dst value
instead of the original src value.

Adding a temporary local variable to cache the original value before
writing to dst and using it for the carry calculation solves the
problem. In addition, partial overlap is rejected from control plane for
all kind of operations including byteorder. This was tested with the
following bytecode:

table test_table ip flags 0 use 1 handle 1
ip test_table test_chain use 3 type filter hook input prio 0 policy accept packets 0 bytes 0 flags 1
ip test_table test_chain 2
  [ immediate reg 1 0x44332211 0x88776655 ]
  [ bitwise reg 1 = ( reg 1 << 0x08000000 ) ]
  [ cmp eq reg 1 0x66443322 0x00887766 ]
  [ counter pkts 0 bytes 0 ]
ip test_table test_chain 4 3
  [ immediate reg 1 0x44332211 0x88776655 ]
  [ bitwise reg 1 = ( reg 1 << 0x08000000 ) ]

Haoze Xie e196115ec3 netfilter: nf_queue: hold bridge skb->dev while queued
br_pass_frame_up() rewrites skb->dev from the ingress port to the bridge
master before queueing bridge LOCAL_IN packets. NFQUEUE only holds
references on state.in/out and bridge physdevs, so a queued bridge
packet can retain a freed bridge master in skb->dev until reinjection.

When the verdict is reinjected later, br_netif_receive_skb() re-enters
the receive path with skb->dev still pointing at the freed bridge master,
triggering a use-after-free.

Store skb->dev in the queue entry, hold a reference on it for the queue
lifetime, and use the saved device when dropping queued packets during
NETDEV_DOWN handling.

Pablo Neira Ayuso dcb0f9aefd netfilter: nf_conntrack_expect: restore helper propagation via expectation
A recent series to fix expectations broke helper propagation via
expectation, this mechanism is used by the sip and h323 helper. This
also propagates the conntrack helper to expected connections. I changed
semantics of exp->helper which now tells us the actual helper that
created the expectation.

Add an explicit assign_helper field to expectations for this purpose
and update helpers to use it.

Restore this feature for userspace conntrack helper via ctnetlink
nfqueue integration so it is again possible to attach a helper to an
expectation, where it makes sense. This is not restored via ctnetlink
expectation creation as there is no client for such feature. Use the
expectation layer 4 protocol number for the helper lookup for
consistency.

Make sure the expectation using this helper propagation mechanism also
go away when the helper is unregistered.

Weiming Shi 1d47b55b36 netfilter: nft_fwd_netdev: use recursion counter in neigh egress path
nft_fwd_neigh can be used in egress chains (NF_NETDEV_EGRESS). When the
forwarding rule targets the same device or two devices forward to each
other, neigh_xmit() triggers dev_queue_xmit() which re-enters
nf_hook_egress(), causing infinite recursion and stack overflow.

Move the nf_get_nf_dup_skb_recursion() accessor and NF_RECURSION_LIMIT
to the shared header nf_dup_netdev.h as a static inline, so that
nft_fwd_netdev can use the recursion counter directly without exported
function call overhead. Guard neigh_xmit() with the same recursion
limit already used in nf_do_netdev_egress().

Pablo Neira Ayuso 10f79dbd77 netfilter: nf_tables: add hook transactions for device deletions
Restore the flag that indicates that the hook is going away, ie.
NFT_HOOK_REMOVE, but add a new transaction object to track deletion
of hooks without altering the basechain/flowtable hook_list during
the preparation phase.

The existing approach that moves the hook from the basechain/flowtable
hook_list to transaction hook_list breaks netlink dump path readers
of this RCU-protected list.

It should be possible use an array for nft_trans_hook to store the
deleted hooks to compact the representation but I am not expecting
many hook object, specially now that wildcard support for devices
is in place.

Note that the nft_trans_chain_hooks() list contains a list of struct
nft_trans_hook objects for DELCHAIN and DELFLOWTABLE commands, while
this list stores struct nft_hook objects for NEWCHAIN and NEWFLOWTABLE.
Note that new commands can be updated to use nft_trans_hook for
consistency.

This patch also adapts the event notification path to deal with the list
of hook transactions.

Fernando Fernandez Mancera 84dee05d9d netfilter: conntrack: remove UDP-Lite conntrack support
UDP-Lite (RFC 3828) socket support was recently retired from the core
networking stack. As a follow-up of that, drop the connection tracker
and NAT support for UDP-Lite in Netfilter.

This patch removes CONFIG_NF_CT_PROTO_UDPLITE and scrubs UDP-Lite
awareness from the conntrack core, NAT core, nft_ct, and ctnetlink.
Please note that stateless packet inspection, matching, ipsets or
logging support for IPPROTO_UDPLITE is preserved.

As conntrack no longer extracts UDP-Lite ports or tracks its L4 state,
when performing NAT the UDP-Lite checksum cannot be updated anymore.
That is an expected and acceptable consequence of removing UDP-Lite
conntrack module.

Sharing a global hash table among all queues is tempting, but
it can cause crash:

struct nf_queue_entry is freed via kfree, but parallel cpu can still
encounter such an nf_queue_entry when walking the list.

Alternative fix is to free the nf_queue_entry via kfree_rcu() instead,
but as we have to alloc/free for each skb this will cause more mem
pressure.

nft_ct_timeout_obj_destroy() frees the timeout object with kfree()
immediately after nf_ct_untimeout(), without waiting for an RCU grace

Add an rcu_head to struct nf_ct_timeout and use kfree_rcu() to defer
freeing until after an RCU grace period, matching the approach already

Pablo Neira Ayuso 3785091c6c netfilter: nft_meta: add double-tagged vlan and pppoe support
Currently:

  add rule netdev x y ip saddr 1.1.1.1

does not work with neither double-tagged vlan nor pppoe packets. This is
because the network and transport header offset are not pointing to the
IP and transport protocol headers in the stack.

This patch expands NFT_META_PROTOCOL and NFT_META_L4PROTO to parse
double-tagged vlan and pppoe packets so matching network and transport
header fields becomes possible with the existing userspace generated
bytecode. Note that this parser only supports double-tagged vlan which
is composed of vlan offload + vlan header in the skb payload area for
simplicity.

NFT_META_PROTOCOL is used by bridge and netdev family as an implicit
dependency in the bytecode to match on network header fields.
Similarly, there is also NFT_META_L4PROTO, which is also used as an
implicit dependency when matching on the transport protocol header
fields.

Pablo Neira Ayuso 02a3231b6d netfilter: nf_conntrack_expect: store netns and zone in expectation
__nf_ct_expect_find() and nf_ct_expect_find_get() are called under
rcu_read_lock() but they dereference the master conntrack via
exp->master.

Since the expectation does not hold a reference on the master conntrack,
this could be dying conntrack or different recycled conntrack than the
real master due to SLAB_TYPESAFE_RCU.

Store the netns, the master_tuple and the zone in struct
nf_conntrack_expect as a safety measure.

This patch is required by the follow up fix not to dump expectations
that do not belong to this netns.

Pablo Neira Ayuso bffcaad9af netfilter: ctnetlink: ensure safe access to master conntrack
Holding reference on the expectation is not sufficient, the master
conntrack object can just go away, making exp->master invalid.

To access exp->master safely:

- Grab the nf_conntrack_expect_lock, this gets serialized with
  clean_from_lists() which also holds this lock when the master
  conntrack goes away.

- Hold reference on master conntrack via nf_conntrack_find_get().
  Not so easy since the master tuple to look up for the master conntrack
  is not available in the existing problematic paths.

This patch goes for extending the nf_conntrack_expect_lock section
to address this issue for simplicity, in the cases that are described
below this is just slightly extending the lock section.

The add expectation command already holds a reference to the master
conntrack from ctnetlink_create_expect().

However, the delete expectation command needs to grab the spinlock
before looking up for the expectation. Expand the existing spinlock
section to address this to cover the expectation lookup. Note that,
the nf_ct_expect_iterate_net() calls already grabs the spinlock while
iterating over the expectation table, which is correct.

The get expectation command needs to grab the spinlock to ensure master
conntrack does not go away. This also expands the existing spinlock
section to cover the expectation lookup too. I needed to move the
netlink skb allocation out of the spinlock to keep it GFP_KERNEL.

For the expectation events, the IPEXP_DESTROY event is already delivered
under the spinlock, just move the delivery of IPEXP_NEW under the
spinlock too because the master conntrack event cache is reached through
exp->master.

While at it, add lockdep notations to help identify what codepaths need
to grab the spinlock.

Pablo Neira Ayuso 9c42bc9db9 netfilter: nf_conntrack_expect: honor expectation helper field
The expectation helper field is mostly unused. As a result, the
netfilter codebase relies on accessing the helper through exp->master.

Always set on the expectation helper field so it can be used to reach
the helper.

nf_ct_expect_init() is called from packet path where the skb owns
the ct object, therefore accessing exp->master for the newly created
expectation is safe. This saves a lot of updates in all callsites
to pass the ct object as parameter to nf_ct_expect_init().

This is a preparation patches for follow up fixes.

Yiming Qian reports Use-after-free in the pipapo set type:
  Under a large number of expired elements, commit-time GC can run for a very
  long time in a non-preemptible context, triggering soft lockup warnings and
  RCU stall reports (local denial of service).

We must split GC in an unlink and a reclaim phase.

We cannot queue elements for freeing until pointers have been swapped.
Expired elements are still exposed to both the packet path and userspace
dumpers via the live copy of the data structure.

call_rcu() does not protect us: dump operations or element lookups starting
after call_rcu has fired can still observe the free'd element, unless the
commit phase has made enough progress to swap the clone and live pointers
before any new reader has picked up the old version.

This a similar approach as done recently for the rbtree backend in commit
35f83a7552 ("netfilter: nft_set_rbtree: don't gc elements on insert").

Restrict set clone to the flush set command in the preparation phase.
Add NFT_ITER_UPDATE_CLONE and use it for this purpose, update the rbtree
and pipapo backends to only clone the set when this iteration type is
used.

As for the existing NFT_ITER_UPDATE type, update the pipapo backend to
use the existing set clone if available, otherwise use the existing set
representation. After this update, there is no need to clone a set that
is being deleted, this includes bound anonymous set.

An alternative approach to NFT_ITER_UPDATE_CLONE is to add a .clone
interface and call it from the flush set path.

Florian Westphal 6b94d081f8 netfilter: nf_tables: remove register tracking infrastructure
This facility was disabled in commit
9e539c5b6d ("netfilter: nf_tables: disable expression reduction infra"),
because not all nft_exprs guarantee they will update the destination
register: some may set NFT_BREAK instead to cancel evaluation of the
rule.

This has been dead code ever since.
There are no plans to salvage this at this time, so remove this.

====================
netfilter: updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for *net-next*:

1) Fix net-next-only use-after-free bug in nf_tables rbtree set:
   Expired elements cannot be released right away after unlink anymore
   because there is no guarantee that the binary-search blob is going to
   be updated.  Spotted by syzkaller.

2) Fix esoteric bug in nf_queue with udp fraglist gro, broken since
   6.11. Patch 3 adds extends the nfqueue selftest for this.

4) Use dedicated slab for flowtable entries, currently the -512 cache
   is used, which is wasteful.  From Qingfang Deng.

5) Recent net-next update extended existing test for ip6ip6 tunnels, add
   the required /config entry.  Test still passed by accident because the
   previous tests network setup gets re-used, so also update the test so
   it will fail in case the ip6ip6 tunnel interface cannot be added.

6) Fix 'nft get element mytable myset { 1.2.3.4 }' on big endian
   platforms, this was broken since code was added in v5.1.

7) Fix nf_tables counter reset support on 32bit platforms, where counter
   reset may cause huge values to appear due to wraparound.
   Broken since reset feature was added in v6.11.  From Anders Grahn.

8-11) update nf_tables rbtree set type to detect partial
   operlaps.  This will eventually speed up nftables userspace: at this
   time userspace does a netlink dump of the set content which slows down
   incremental updates on interval sets.  From Pablo Neira Ayuso.

Alice Mikityanska b2936b4fd5 net/ipv6: Introduce payload_len helpers
The next commits will transition away from using the hop-by-hop
extension header to encode packet length for BIG TCP. Add wrappers
around ip6->payload_len that return the actual value if it's non-zero,
and calculate it from skb->len if payload_len is set to zero (and a
symmetrical setter).

The new helpers are used wherever the surrounding code supports the
hop-by-hop jumbo header for BIG TCP IPv6, or the corresponding IPv4 code
uses skb_ip_totlen (e.g., in include/net/netfilter/nf_tables_ipv6.h).

No behavioral change in this commit.
