mq/mqprio have their own ways to report qlen/drops by folding stats on
all their queues, with appropriate locking.

A second problem is that qdisc_tree_decrease_qlen() calls qdisc_lookup()
without proper locking : concurrent qdisc updates could corrupt the list
that qdisc_match_from_root() parses to find a qdisc given its handle.

Fix first problem adding a TCQ_F_NOPARENT qdisc flag that
qdisc_tree_decrease_qlen() can use to abort its tree traversal,
as soon as it meets a mq/mqprio qdisc children.

Second problem can be fixed by RCU protection.
Qdisc are already freed after RCU grace period, so qdisc_list_add() and
qdisc_list_del() simply have to use appropriate rcu list variants.

A future patch will add a per struct netdev_queue list anchor, so that
qdisc_tree_decrease_qlen() can have more efficient lookups.

1317530302 openvswitch: fix hangup on vxlan/gre/geneve device deletion
Each openvswitch tunnel vport (vxlan,gre,geneve) holds a reference
to the underlying tunnel device, but never released it when such
device is deleted.
Deleting the underlying device via the ip tool cause the kernel to
hangup in the netdev_wait_allrefs() loop.
This commit ensure that on device unregistration dp_detach_port_notify()
is called for all vports that hold the device reference, properly
releasing it.

4eba7bb1d7 ipv4: igmp: Allow removing groups from a removed interface
When a multicast group is joined on a socket, a struct ip_mc_socklist
is appended to the sockets mc_list containing information about the
joined group.

If the interface is hot unplugged, this entry becomes stale. Prior to
commit 52ad353a53 ("igmp: fix the problem when mc leave group") it
was possible to remove the stale entry by performing a
IP_DROP_MEMBERSHIP, passing either the old ifindex or ip address on
the interface. However, this fix enforces that the interface must
still exist. Thus with time, the number of stale entries grows, until
sysctl_igmp_max_memberships is reached and then it is not possible to
join and more groups.

The previous patch fixes an issue where a IP_DROP_MEMBERSHIP is
performed without specifying the interface, either by ifindex or ip
address. However here we do supply one of these. So loosen the
restriction on device existence to only apply when the interface has
not been specified. This then restores the ability to clean up the
stale entries.

6bd4f355df ipv6: kill sk_dst_lock
While testing the np->opt RCU conversion, I found that UDP/IPv6 was
using a mixture of xchg() and sk_dst_lock to protect concurrent changes
to sk->sk_dst_cache, leading to possible corruptions and crashes.

ip6_sk_dst_lookup_flow() uses sk_dst_check() anyway, so the simplest
way to fix the mess is to remove sk_dst_lock completely, as we did for
IPv4.

__ip6_dst_store() and ip6_dst_store() share same implementation.

sk_setup_caps() being called with socket lock being held or not,
we have to use sk_dst_set() instead of __sk_dst_set()

Note that I had to move the "np->dst_cookie = rt6_get_cookie(rt);"
in ip6_dst_store() before the sk_setup_caps(sk, dst) call.

This is because ip6_dst_store() can be called from process context,
without any lock held.

As soon as the dst is installed in sk->sk_dst_cache, dst can be freed
from another cpu doing a concurrent ip6_dst_store()

Doing the dst dereference before doing the install is needed to make
sure no use after free would trigger.

cacc062152 sctp: use GFP_USER for user-controlled kmalloc
Dmitry Vyukov reported that the user could trigger a kernel warning by
using a large len value for getsockopt SCTP_GET_LOCAL_ADDRS, as that
value directly affects the value used as a kmalloc() parameter.

This patch thus switches the allocation flags from all user-controllable
kmalloc size to GFP_USER to put some more restrictions on it and also
disables the warn, as they are not necessary.

45f6fad84c ipv6: add complete rcu protection around np->opt
This patch addresses multiple problems :

while socket is not locked : Other threads can change np->opt
concurrently. Dmitry posted a syzkaller

use-after-free.

Starting with TCP/DCCP lockless listeners, tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock()
and dccp_v6_request_recv_sock() also need to use RCU protection
to dereference np->opt once (before calling ipv6_dup_options())

This patch adds full RCU protection to np->opt

c1df932c05 mac80211: fix off-channel mgmt-tx uninitialized variable usage
In the last change here, I neglected to update the cookie in one code
path: when a mgmt-tx has no real cookie sent to userspace as it doesn't
wait for a response, but is off-channel. The original code used the SKB
pointer as the cookie and always assigned the cookie to the TX SKB in
ieee80211_start_roc_work(), but my change turned this around and made
the code rely on a valid cookie being passed in.

Unfortunately, the off-channel no-wait TX path wasn't assigning one at
all, resulting in an uninitialized stack value being used. This wasn't
handed back to userspace as a cookie (since in the no-wait case there
isn't a cookie), but it was tested for non-zero to distinguish between
mgmt-tx and off-channel.

Fix this by assigning a dummy non-zero cookie unconditionally, and get
rid of a misleading comment and some dead code while at it. I'll clean
up the ACK SKB handling separately later.

ceb5d58b21 net: fix sock_wake_async() rcu protection
Dmitry provided a syzkaller (http://github.com/google/syzkaller)
triggering a fault in sock_wake_async() when async IO is requested.

Said program stressed af_unix sockets, but the issue is generic
and should be addressed in core networking stack.

The problem is that by the time sock_wake_async() is called,
we should not access the @flags field of 'struct socket',
as the inode containing this socket might be freed without
further notice, and without RCU grace period.

We already maintain an RCU protected structure, "struct socket_wq"
so moving SOCKWQ_ASYNC_NOSPACE & SOCKWQ_ASYNC_WAITDATA into it
is the safe route.

It also reduces number of cache lines needing dirtying, so might
provide a performance improvement anyway.

In followup patches, we might move remaining flags (SOCK_NOSPACE,
SOCK_PASSCRED, SOCK_PASSSEC) to save 8 bytes and let 'struct socket'
being mostly read and let it being shared between cpus.

Goal is to move SOCK_ASYNC_NOSPACE and SOCK_ASYNC_WAITDATA

To ease backports, we rename both constants.

Two new helpers, sk_set_bit(int nr, struct sock *sk)
and sk_clear_bit(int net, struct sock *sk) are added so that
following patch can change their implementation.

In IPv6, we cannot inherit the dst of the original dst. ndisc packets
are IPv6 packets and may take another route than the original packet.

This patch breaks the following scenario: a packet comes from eth0 and
is forwarded through vxlan1. The encapsulated packet triggers an NS
which cannot be sent because of the wrong route.

the rs_bound_addr field without taking a lock on the socket.  This opens a
race where rs_bound_addr is temporarily set but where the transport is not
in rds_bind(), leading to a NULL pointer dereference when trying to
dereference 'trans' in __rds_conn_create().

Vegard wrote a reproducer for this issue, so kindly ask him to share if
you're interested.

I cannot reproduce the NULL pointer dereference using Vegard's reproducer
with this patch, whereas I could without.

Complete earlier incomplete fix to CVE-2015-6937:

  74e98eb085 ("RDS: verify the underlying transport exists before creating a connection")

20f795666d net: openvswitch: Remove invalid comment
During pre-upstream development, the openvswitch datapath used a custom
hashtable to store vports that could fail on delete due to lack of
memory. However, prior to upstream submission, this code was reworked to
use an hlist based hastable with flexible-array based buckets. As such
the failure condition was eliminated from the vport_del path, rendering
this comment invalid.

fbdd29bfd2 net: ipmr, ip6mr: fix vif/tunnel failure race condition
Since (at least) commit b17a7c179d ("[NET]: Do sysfs registration as
part of register_netdevice."), netdev_run_todo() deals only with
unregistration, so we don't need to do the rtnl_unlock/lock cycle to
finish registration when failing pimreg or dvmrp device creation. In
fact that opens a race condition where someone can delete the device
while rtnl is unlocked because it's fully registered. The problem gets
worse when netlink support is introduced as there are more points of entry
that can cause it and it also makes reusing that code correctly impossible.
