ipv6_{skip_exthdr,find_hdr}() and ip6_{tnl_parse_tlv_enc_lim,
protocol_deliver_rcu}() iterate over IPv6 extension headers until they
find a non-extension-header protocol or run out of packet data. The
loops have no iteration counter, relying solely on the packet length
to bound them. For a crafted packet with 8-byte extension headers
filling a 64KB jumbogram, this means a worst case of up to ~8k
iterations with a skb_header_pointer call each. ipv6_skip_exthdr(),
for example, is used where it parses the inner quoted packet inside
an incoming ICMPv6 error:
- icmpv6_rcv
- checksum validation
- case ICMPV6_DEST_UNREACH
- icmpv6_notify
- pskb_may_pull() <- pull inner IPv6 header
- ipv6_skip_exthdr() <- iterates here
- pskb_may_pull()
- ipprot->err_handler() <- sk lookup
The per-iteration cost of ipv6_skip_exthdr itself is generally
light, but skb_header_pointer becomes more costly on reassembled
packets: the first ~1232 bytes of the inner packet are in the skb's
linear area, but the remaining ~63KB are in the frag_list where
skb_copy_bits is needed to read data.
Initially, the idea was to add a configurable limit via a new
sysctl knob with default 8, in line with knobs from commit
47d3d7ac65 ("ipv6: Implement limits on Hop-by-Hop and Destination
options"), but two reasons eventually argued against it:
- It adds to UAPI that needs to be maintained forever, and
upcoming work is restricting extension header ordering anyway,
leaving little reason for another sysctl knob
- exthdrs_core.c is always built-in even when CONFIG_IPV6=n,
where struct net has no .ipv6 member, so the read site would
need an ifdef'd fallback to a constant anyway
Therefore, just use a constant (IP6_MAX_EXT_HDRS_CNT). All four
extension header walking functions are now bound by this limit.
Note that the check in ip6_protocol_deliver_rcu() happens right
before the goto resubmit, such that we don't have to have a test
for ipv6_ext_hdr() in the fast-path.
There's an ongoing IETF draft-iurman-6man-eh-occurrences to enforce
IPv6 extension headers ordering and occurrence. The latter also
discusses security implications. As per RFC8200 section 4.1, the
occurrence rules for extension headers provide a practical upper
bound which is 8. In order to be conservative, let's define
IP6_MAX_EXT_HDRS_CNT as 12 to leave enough room for quirky setups.
In the unlikely event that this is still not enough, then we might
need to reconsider a sysctl.

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).

MSG_ZEROCOPY data must be copied before data is queued to local
sockets, to avoid indefinite timeout until memory release.
This test is performed by skb_orphan_frags_rx, which is called when
looping an egress skb to packet sockets, error queue or ingress path.
To preserve zerocopy for skbs that are looped to ingress but are then
forwarded to an egress device rather than delivered locally, defer
this last check until an skb enters the local IP receive path.
This is analogous to existing behavior of skb_clear_delivery_time.

Route hints when the nexthop is part of a multipath group causes packets
in the same receive batch to be sent to the same nexthop irrespective of
the multipath hash of the packet. So, do not extract route hint for
packets whose destination is part of a multipath group.
A new SKB flag IP6SKB_MULTIPATH is introduced for this purpose, set the
flag when route is looked up in fib6_select_path() and use it in
ip6_can_use_hint() to check for the existence of the flag.

Commit e21145a987 ("ipv4: namespacify ip_early_demux sysctl knob") made
it possible to enable/disable early_demux on a per-netns basis. Then, we
introduced two knobs, tcp_early_demux and udp_early_demux, to switch it for
TCP/UDP in commit dddb64bcb3 ("net: Add sysctl to toggle early demux for
tcp and udp"). However, the .proc_handler() was wrong and actually
disabled us from changing the behaviour in each netns.
We can execute early_demux if net.ipv4.ip_early_demux is on and each proto
.early_demux() handler is not NULL. When we toggle (tcp|udp)_early_demux,
the change itself is saved in each netns variable, but the .early_demux()
handler is a global variable, so the handler is switched based on the
init_net's sysctl variable. Thus, netns (tcp|udp)_early_demux knobs have
nothing to do with the logic. Whether we CAN execute proto .early_demux()
is always decided by init_net's sysctl knob, and whether we DO it or not is
by each netns ip_early_demux knob.
This patch namespacifies (tcp|udp)_early_demux again. For now, the users
of the .early_demux() handler are TCP and UDP only, and they are called
directly to avoid retpoline. So, we can remove the .early_demux() handler
from inet6?_protos and need not dereference them in ip6?_rcv_finish_core().
If another proto needs .early_demux(), we can restore it at that time.

This reverts commit 6af1799aaf.
Commit 6af1799aaf ("ipv6: drop incoming packets having a v4mapped
source address") introduced an input check against v4mapped addresses.
Use of such addresses on the wire is indeed questionable and not
allowed on public Internet. As the commit pointed out
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-itojun-v6ops-v4mapped-harmful-02
lists potential issues.
Unfortunately there are applications which use v4mapped addresses,
and breaking them is a clear regression. For example v4mapped
addresses (or any semi-valid addresses, really) may be used
for uni-direction event streams or packet export.
Since the issue which sparked the addition of the check was with
TCP and request_socks in particular push the check down to TCPv6
and DCCP. This restores the ability to receive UDPv6 packets with
v4mapped address as the source.
Keep using the IPSTATS_MIB_INHDRERRORS statistic to minimize the
user-visible changes.

Add support for TPROXY via a new bpf helper, bpf_sk_assign().
This helper requires the BPF program to discover the socket via a call
to bpf_sk*_lookup_*(), then pass this socket to the new helper. The
helper takes its own reference to the socket in addition to any existing
reference that may or may not currently be obtained for the duration of
BPF processing. For the destination socket to receive the traffic, the
traffic must be routed towards that socket via local route. The
simplest example route is below, but in practice you may want to route
traffic more narrowly (eg by CIDR):
$ ip route add local default dev lo
This patch avoids trying to introduce an extra bit into the skb->sk, as
that would require more invasive changes to all code interacting with
the socket to ensure that the bit is handled correctly, such as all
error-handling cases along the path from the helper in BPF through to
the orphan path in the input. Instead, we opt to use the destructor
variable to switch on the prefetch of the socket.

When doing RX batch packet processing, we currently always repeat
the route lookup for each ingress packet. When no custom rules are
in place, and there aren't routes depending on source addresses,
we know that packets with the same destination address will use
the same dst.
This change tries to avoid per packet route lookup caching
the destination address of the latest successful lookup, and
reusing it for the next packet when the above conditions are
in place. Ingress traffic for most servers should fit.
The measured performance delta under UDP flood vs a recvmmsg
receiver is as follow:
vanilla patched delta
Kpps Kpps %
1431 1674 +17
In the worst-case scenario - each packet has a different
destination address - the performance delta is within noise
range.

This began with a syzbot report. syzkaller was injecting
IPv6 TCP SYN packets having a v4mapped source address.
After an unsuccessful 4-tuple lookup, TCP creates a request
socket (SYN_RECV) and calls reqsk_queue_hash_req()
reqsk_queue_hash_req() calls sk_ehashfn(sk)
At this point we have AF_INET6 sockets, and the heuristic
used by sk_ehashfn() to either hash the IPv4 or IPv6 addresses
is to use ipv6_addr_v4mapped(&sk->sk_v6_daddr)
For the particular spoofed packet, we end up hashing V4 addresses
which were not initialized by the TCP IPv6 stack, so KMSAN fired
a warning.
I first fixed sk_ehashfn() to test both source and destination addresses,
but then faced various problems, including user-space programs
like packetdrill that had similar assumptions.
Instead of trying to fix the whole ecosystem, it is better
to admit that we have a dual stack behavior, and that we
can not build linux kernels without V4 stack anyway.
The dual stack API automatically forces the traffic to be IPv4
if v4mapped addresses are used at bind() or connect(), so it makes
no sense to allow IPv6 traffic to use the same v4mapped class.
