The patch 446fab5933 ("ipv6: enable anycast addresses
as source addresses in ICMPv6 error messages") causes an Oops when pinging a not
set up IPv6 peer on a sit tunnel.
The problem is that ipv6_anycast_destination() uses unconditionally skb_dst(skb),
which is NULL in this case.
The solution is to use instead the ipv6_chk_acast_addr_src() function.
Here are the steps to reproduce it:
modprobe sit
ip link add sit1 type sit remote 10.16.0.121 local 10.16.0.249
ip l s sit1 up
ip -6 a a dev sit1 2001🔢:123 remote 2001🔢:121

But there are many more, resulting in the machine going OOM after some

From looking at the TPROXY code, and with help from Florian, I see
that the memory leak is introduced in tcp_v4_early_demux():
void tcp_v4_early_demux(struct sk_buff *skb)
{
/* ... */
iph = ip_hdr(skb);
th = tcp_hdr(skb);
if (th->doff < sizeof(struct tcphdr) / 4)
return;
sk = __inet_lookup_established(dev_net(skb->dev), &tcp_hashinfo,
iph->saddr, th->source,
iph->daddr, ntohs(th->dest),
skb->skb_iif);
if (sk) {
skb->sk = sk;
where the socket is assigned unconditionally to skb->sk, also bumping
the refcnt on it. This is problematic, because in our case the skb
has already a socket assigned in the TPROXY target. This then results
in the leak I see.
The very same issue seems to be with IPv6, but haven't tested.

We currently don't report IPV6_RECVPKTINFO in cmsg access ancillary data

This patch splits the ip6_datagram_recv_ctl into two functions, one
which handles both protocol families, AF_INET and AF_INET6, while the
ip6_datagram_recv_specific_ctl only handles IPv6 cmsg data.
ip6_datagram_recv_*_ctl never reported back any errors, so we can make
them return void. Also provide a helper for protocols which don't offer dual
personality to further use ip6_datagram_recv_ctl, which is exported to
modules.

The RFC 3810 defines two type of messages for multicast
listeners. The "Current State Report" message, as the name
implies, refreshes the *current* state to the querier.
Since the querier sends Query messages periodically, there
is no need to retransmit the report.
On the other hand, any change should be reported immediately
using "State Change Report" messages. Since it's an event
triggered by a change and that it can be affected by packet
loss, the rfc states it should be retransmitted [RobVar] times
to make sure routers will receive timely.
Currently, we are sending "Current State Reports" after
DAD is completed. Before that, we send messages using
unspecified address (::) which should be silently discarded
by routers.
This patch changes to send "State Change Report" messages
after DAD is completed fixing the behavior to be RFC compliant
and also to pass TAHI IPv6 testsuite.

Refactor the deletion/update of prefix routes when removing an
address. Now also consider IFA_F_NOPREFIXROUTE and if there is an address
present with this flag, to not cleanup the route. Instead, assume
that userspace is taking care of this route.
Also perform the same cleanup, when userspace changes an existing address
to add NOPREFIXROUTE (to an address that didn't have this flag). This is
done because when the address was added, a prefix route was created for it.
Since the user now wants to handle this route by himself, we cleanup this
route.
This cleanup of the route is not totally robust. There is no guarantee,
that the route we are about to delete was really the one added by the
kernel. This behavior does not change by the patch, and in practice it

Bob Falken reported that after 4G packets, multicast forwarding stopped
working. This was because of a rule reference counter overflow which
freed the rule as soon as the overflow happend.
This patch solves this by adding the FIB_LOOKUP_NOREF flag to
fib_rules_lookup calls. This is safe even from non-rcu locked sections
as in this case the flag only implies not taking a reference to the rule,
which we don't need at all.
Rules only hold references to the namespace, which are guaranteed to be
available during the call of the non-rcu protected function reg_vif_xmit
because of the interface reference which itself holds a reference to
the net namespace.

In the IPv6 forwarding path we are only concerend about the outgoing
interface MTU, but also respect locked MTUs on routes. Tunnel provider
or IPSEC already have to recheck and if needed send PtB notifications
to the sending host in case the data does not fit into the packet with
added headers (we only know the final header sizes there, while also
using path MTU information).
The reason for this change is, that path MTU information can be injected
into the kernel via e.g. icmp_err protocol handler without verification
of local sockets. As such, this could cause the IPv6 forwarding path to
wrongfully emit Packet-too-Big errors and drop IPv6 packets.

The following patchset contains the following nf_tables updates,
mostly updates from Patrick McHardy, they are:
* Add the "inet" table and filter chain type for this new netfilter
family: NFPROTO_INET. This special table/chain allows IPv4 and IPv6

* Load both IPv4 and IPv6 conntrack modules in nft_ct if the rule is used
in NFPROTO_INET, as we don't certainly know which one would be used,
also from Patrick McHardy.
* Do not allow to delete a table that contains sets, otherwise these
sets become orphan, from Patrick McHardy.
* Hold a reference to the corresponding nf_tables family module when
creating a table of that family type, to avoid the module deletion
when in use, from Patrick McHardy.
* Update chain counters before setting the chain policy to ensure that
we don't leave the chain in inconsistent state in case of errors (aka.
restore chain atomicity). This also fixes a possible leak if it fails
to allocate the chain counters if no counters are passed to be restored,
from Patrick McHardy.
* Don't check for overflows in the table counter if we are just renaming
a chain, from Patrick McHardy.
* Replay the netlink request after dropping the nfnl lock to load the
module that supports provides a chain type, from Patrick.
* Fix chain type module references, from Patrick.
* Several cleanups, function renames, constification and code
refactorizations also from Patrick McHardy.
* Add support to set the connmark, this can be used to set it based on
the meta mark (similar feature to -j CONNMARK --restore), from
Kristian Evensen.
* A couple of fixes to the recently added meta/set support and nft_reject,
and fix missing chain type unregistration if we fail to register our
the family table/filter chain type, from myself.

This patch built on top of Commit 299603e837
("net-gro: Prepare GRO stack for the upcoming tunneling support") to add
the support of the standard GRE (RFC1701/RFC2784/RFC2890) to the GRO
stack. It also serves as an example for supporting other encapsulation
protocols in the GRO stack in the future.
The patch supports version 0 and all the flags (key, csum, seq#) but
will flush any pkt with the S (seq#) flag. This is because the S flag
is not support by GSO, and a GRO pkt may end up in the forwarding path,
thus requiring GSO support to break it up correctly.
Currently the "packet_offload" structure only contains L3 (ETH_P_IP/
ETH_P_IPV6) GRO offload support so the encapped pkts are limited to
IP pkts (i.e., w/o L2 hdr). But support for other protocol type can
be easily added, so is the support for GRE variations like NVGRE.
The patch also support csum offload. Specifically if the csum flag is on
and the h/w is capable of checksumming the payload (CHECKSUM_COMPLETE),
the code will take advantage of the csum computed by the h/w when
validating the GRE csum.
Note that commit 60769a5dcd "ipv4: gre:
add GRO capability" already introduces GRO capability to IPv4 GRE
tunnels, using the gro_cells infrastructure. But GRO is done after
GRE hdr has been removed (i.e., decapped). The following patch applies
GRO when pkts first come in (before hitting the GRE tunnel code). There
is some performance advantage for applying GRO as early as possible.
Also this approach is transparent to other subsystem like Open vSwitch
where GRE decap is handled outside of the IP stack hence making it
harder for the gro_cells stuff to apply. On the other hand, some NICs
are still not capable of hashing on the inner hdr of a GRE pkt (RSS).
In that case the GRO processing of pkts from the same remote host will
all happen on the same CPU and the performance may be suboptimal.
I'm including some rough preliminary performance numbers below. Note
that the performance will be highly dependent on traffic load, mix as
usual. Moreover it also depends on NIC offload features hence the
following is by no means a comprehesive study. Local testing and tuning
will be needed to decide the best setting.
All tests spawned 50 copies of netperf TCP_STREAM and ran for 30 secs.
(super_netperf 50 -H 192.168.1.18 -l 30)
An IP GRE tunnel with only the key flag on (e.g., ip tunnel add gre1
mode gre local 10.246.17.18 remote 10.246.17.17 ttl 255 key 123)
is configured.
The GRO support for pkts AFTER decap are controlled through the device
feature of the GRE device (e.g., ethtool -K gre1 gro on/off).
1.1 ethtool -K gre1 gro off; ethtool -K eth0 gro off
thruput: 9.16Gbps
CPU utilization: 19%
1.2 ethtool -K gre1 gro on; ethtool -K eth0 gro off
thruput: 5.9Gbps
CPU utilization: 15%
1.3 ethtool -K gre1 gro off; ethtool -K eth0 gro on
thruput: 9.26Gbps
CPU utilization: 12-13%
1.4 ethtool -K gre1 gro on; ethtool -K eth0 gro on
thruput: 9.26Gbps
CPU utilization: 10%
The following tests were performed on a different NIC that is capable of
csum offload. I.e., the h/w is capable of computing IP payload csum
(CHECKSUM_COMPLETE).
2.1 ethtool -K gre1 gro on (hence will use gro_cells)
2.1.1 ethtool -K eth0 gro off; csum offload disabled

This change allows to follow a recommandation of RFC4942.
- Add "anycast_src_echo_reply" sysctl to control the use of anycast addresses
as source addresses for ICMPv6 echo reply. This sysctl is false by default
to preserve existing behavior.
- Add inline check ipv6_anycast_destination().
- Use them in icmpv6_echo_reply().
Reference:
RFC4942 - IPv6 Transition/Coexistence Security Considerations
(http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4942#section-2.1.6)
2.1.6. Anycast Traffic Identification and Security
[...]
To avoid exposing knowledge about the internal structure of the
network, it is recommended that anycast servers now take advantage of
the ability to return responses with the anycast address as the
source address if possible.

It does not make sense to create an anycast address for an /128-prefix.
Suppress it.
As 32019e651c ("ipv6: Do not leave router anycast address for /127
prefixes.") shows we also may not leave them, because we could accidentally
remove an anycast address the user has allocated or got added via another
prefix.

nftables updates for net-next
The following patchset contains nftables updates for your net-next tree,
they are:
* Add set operation to the meta expression by means of the select_ops()
infrastructure, this allows us to set the packet mark among other things.
From Arturo Borrero Gonzalez.
* Fix wrong format in sscanf in nf_tables_set_alloc_name(), from Daniel
Borkmann.
* Add new queue expression to nf_tables. These comes with two previous patches
to prepare this new feature, one to add mask in nf_tables_core to
evaluate the queue verdict appropriately and another to refactor common
code with xt_NFQUEUE, from Eric Leblond.
* Do not hide nftables from Kconfig if nfnetlink is not enabled, also from
Eric Leblond.
* Add the reject expression to nf_tables, this adds the missing TCP RST
support. It comes with an initial patch to refactor common code with
xt_NFQUEUE, again from Eric Leblond.
* Remove an unused variable assignment in nf_tables_dump_set(), from Michal
Nazarewicz.
* Remove the nft_meta_target code, now that Arturo added the set operation
to the meta expression, from me.
* Add help information for nf_tables to Kconfig, also from me.
* Allow to dump all sets by specifying NFPROTO_UNSPEC, similar feature is
available to other nf_tables objects, requested by Arturo, from me.
* Expose the table usage counter, so we can know how many chains are using
this table without dumping the list of chains, from Tomasz Bursztyka.

They are same, so unify them as one, pcpu_sw_netstats.
Define pcpu_sw_netstat in netdevice.h, remove pcpu_tstats
from if_tunnel and remove br_cpu_netstats from br_private.h

when read/write the 64bit data, the correct lock should be hold.
and we can use the generic vti6_get_stats to return stats, and
not define a new one in ip6_vti.c
