Jozsef Kadlecsik 7f7445840b netfilter: ipset: annotate "pos" for concurrent readers/writers
The "pos" structure member of struct hbucket stores the first
free slot in the hash bucket of a hash type of set and there
are concurrent readers/writers. Annotate accesses properly.

Jozsef Kadlecsik 2358f7427c netfilter: ipset: Fix data race between add and dump in all hash types
When adding a new entry to the next position in the existing hash bucket,
the position index was incremented too early and parallel dump could
read it before the entry was populated with the value. Move the setting
of the position index after populating the entry.

v2: Position counting fixed, noticed by Florian Westphal.

Jozsef Kadlecsik c0c42a0fb2 netfilter: ipset: Fix data race between add and list header in all hash types
The "ipset list -terse" command is actually a dump operation which
may run parallel with "ipset add" commands, which can trigger an
internal resizing of the hash type of sets just being dumped. However,
dumping just the header part of the set was not protected against
underlying resizing. Fix it by protecting the header dumping part
as well.

Nan Li 0d3a282ab5 netfilter: ipset: stop hash:* range iteration at end
The following hash set variants:

hash:ip,mark
hash:ip,port
hash:ip,port,ip
hash:ip,port,net

iterate IPv4 ranges with a 32-bit iterator.

The iterator must stop once the last address in the requested range has
been processed. Advancing it once more can move the traversal state past
the end of the request, so a later retry may continue from an unintended
position.

Handle the iterator increment explicitly at the end of the loop and stop
once the upper bound has been processed. This keeps the existing retry
behaviour intact for valid ranges while preventing traversal from
continuing past the original boundary.

Jozsef Kadlecsik 53d7fd878c netfilter: ipset: fix a potential dump-destroy race
When dumping sets in order to create the proper order for restore,
the list type of sets dumped last. Therefore internally we run the
dumping loop twice: first with all non-list type of sets and skipping
the list type ones and then secondly for the list type of sets.

Sashiko noticed that there's a potential race between dump and destroy
if in the first loop the last set was a list type of set: its pointer
remains unreferenced and a concurrent destroy can free it.

Fix the issue by resetting the variable holding the pointer.

Zhengchuan Liang 62443dc211 netfilter: require Ethernet MAC header before using eth_hdr()
`ip6t_eui64`, `xt_mac`, the `bitmap:ip,mac`, `hash:ip,mac`, and
`hash:mac` ipset types, and `nf_log_syslog` access `eth_hdr(skb)`
after either assuming that the skb is associated with an Ethernet
device or checking only that the `ETH_HLEN` bytes at
`skb_mac_header(skb)` lie between `skb->head` and `skb->data`.

Make these paths first verify that the skb is associated with an
Ethernet device, that the MAC header was set, and that it spans at
least a full Ethernet header before accessing `eth_hdr(skb)`.

Florian Westphal 66b75e6bbe netfilter: add more netlink-based policy range checks
These spots either already check the attribute range manually
before use or the consuming functions tolerate unexpected values.

Nevertheless, add more range checks via netlink policy so we gain
more users and avoid possible re-use in other places that might
not have the required manual checks.  This also improves error
reporting: netlink core can generate extack errors.

Yifan Wu 9862ef9ab0 netfilter: ipset: drop logically empty buckets in mtype_del
mtype_del() counts empty slots below n->pos in k, but it only drops the
bucket when both n->pos and k are zero. This misses buckets whose live
entries have all been removed while n->pos still points past deleted slots.

Treat a bucket as empty when all positions below n->pos are unused and
release it directly instead of shrinking it further.

Linus Torvalds bf4afc53b7 Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument
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.

Kees Cook 69050f8d6d treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types
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 *".

Jozsef Kadlecsik 8478a729c0 netfilter: ipset: fix region locking in hash types
Region locking introduced in v5.6-rc4 contained three macros to handle
the region locks: ahash_bucket_start(), ahash_bucket_end() which gave
back the start and end hash bucket values belonging to a given region
lock and ahash_region() which should give back the region lock belonging
to a given hash bucket. The latter was incorrect which can lead to a
race condition between the garbage collector and adding new elements
when a hash type of set is defined with timeouts.

Phil Sutter 70b6f46a4e netfilter: ipset: Fix for recursive locking warning
With CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING, when creating a set of type bitmap:ip, adding
it to a set of type list:set and populating it from iptables SET target
triggers a kernel warning:

| WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
| 6.12.0-rc7-01692-g5e9a28f41134-dirty #594 Not tainted
| --------------------------------------------
| ping/4018 is trying to acquire lock:
| ffff8881094a6848 (&set->lock){+.-.}-{2:2}, at: ip_set_add+0x28c/0x360 [ip_set]

| but task is already holding lock:
| ffff88811034c048 (&set->lock){+.-.}-{2:2}, at: ip_set_add+0x28c/0x360 [ip_set]

This is a false alarm: ipset does not allow nested list:set type, so the
loop in list_set_kadd() can never encounter the outer set itself. No
other set type supports embedded sets, so this is the only case to
consider.

To avoid the false report, create a distinct lock class for list:set
type ipset locks.

Jozsef Kadlecsik 4e7aaa6b82 netfilter: ipset: Fix race between namespace cleanup and gc in the list:set type
Lion Ackermann reported that there is a race condition between namespace cleanup
in ipset and the garbage collection of the list:set type. The namespace
cleanup can destroy the list:set type of sets while the gc of the set type is
waiting to run in rcu cleanup. The latter uses data from the destroyed set which
thus leads use after free. The patch contains the following parts:

- When destroying all sets, first remove the garbage collectors, then wait
  if needed and then destroy the sets.
- Fix the badly ordered "wait then remove gc" for the destroy a single set
  case.
- Fix the missing rcu locking in the list:set type in the userspace test
  case.
- Use proper RCU list handlings in the list:set type.

The patch depends on c1193d9bbb (netfilter: ipset: Add list flush to cancel_gc).

Jozsef Kadlecsik 97f7cf1cd8 netfilter: ipset: fix performance regression in swap operation
The patch "netfilter: ipset: fix race condition between swap/destroy
and kernel side add/del/test", commit 28628fa9 fixes a race condition.
But the synchronize_rcu() added to the swap function unnecessarily slows
it down: it can safely be moved to destroy and use call_rcu() instead.

Eric Dumazet pointed out that simply calling the destroy functions as
rcu callback does not work: sets with timeout use garbage collectors
which need cancelling at destroy which can wait. Therefore the destroy
functions are split into two: cancelling garbage collectors safely at
executing the command received by netlink and moving the remaining
part only into the rcu callback.
