When commit 4f4920669d ("xfrm: Reinject transport-mode packets through
workqueue") converted xfrm_trans_reinject from a tasklet to a workqueue,
the reinjection loop ceased running in softirq context. Workqueue workers
run in process context where local_bh_disable() does not enter an RCU
read-side critical section under CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU.
Because finish callbacks (such as ip6_rcv_finish) expect to run under an
RCU read lock (performing route lookups, l3mdev lookups, and accessing
RCU-protected data structures), invoking them in workqueue context without
rcu_read_lock() triggers RCU lockdep warnings.
Furthermore, packets queued to the workqueue via xfrm_trans_queue_net()
may carry non-refcounted (noref) dst entries (e.g. from ip_route_input_noref).
Additionally, on netdevice unregistration, dst_dev_put() replaces dst->dev
with blackhole_netdev, so dst entries do not keep skb->dev alive while
queued in the workqueue.
Fix these issues by:
1. Calling skb_dst_force(skb) in xfrm_trans_queue_net() while still in the
caller's RCU section to ensure dst is reference-counted before queuing.
2. Holding a reference on skb->dev via dev_hold()/dev_put() across workqueue
deferral so skb->dev remains valid during finish() callback processing.
3. Acquiring rcu_read_lock() around the finish callback invocation loop in
xfrm_trans_reinject().

xfrm_state_netlink() builds the ALLOCSPI response with
dump_one_state(), which already calls alloc_compat() with the response
skb and header.
xfrm_alloc_userspi() then calls alloc_compat() again, but passes the
original request skb and its header. For a compat request, the
translator therefore interprets the 228-byte compat xfrm_userspi_info
as the 232-byte native layout and reads four bytes past the declared
payload. It also publishes the translated child through the request's
frag_list.
A multicast clone of the request shares skb_shared_info and can observe
that child. xfrm_user_rcv_msg() frees it after the request handler
returns, racing a compat receiver which may still be copying from it and
resulting in a use-after-free.
Remove the redundant conversion. The response keeps its correct compat
translation from dump_one_state(), and no child is attached to the
inbound request.

xfrm6_local_rxpmtu() and xfrm6_local_error() dereference skb->sk as if it
always pointed at a full IPv6 socket.
That is not guaranteed. TCP SYN-ACK skbs can be owned by a
TCP_NEW_SYN_RECV request_sock while the output path itself is driven by the
full listener. If rerouting selects an IPv6 XFRM tunnel route with a lower
MTU, the local PMTU/error handling path can reach these callbacks with that
mini-socket still attached to the skb.
The callbacks then miscast the request socket as a full inet/IPv6 socket and
can read beyond the request_sock allocation when they access inet_sock or
ipv6_pinfo state.
Resolve the owner with skb_to_full_sk() in both callbacks and bail out when
no full socket is attached. This matches the surrounding XFRM IPv6 PMTU/error
logic, which already reasons about full sockets with skb_to_full_sk().

When the start of an inner packet is split across two outer packets
such that fewer than 4 bytes land at the end of the first one,
__input_process_payload() saves those bytes as a runt and skips the
iplen/iphlen validation performed for in-place packets. When the
continuation packet arrives, iptfs_reassem_cont() only requires the
declared inner length to be >= sizeof(ra_runt) (6) before allocating
the reassembly skb with that attacker-controlled length.
However, __iptfs_iphlen() always returns the fixed minimum IP header
size (20 for IPv4, 40 for IPv6), so for an inner IPv4 tot_len in
[6, 19] the header-completion copy writes past the declared packet
length, and the subsequent "ipremain -= copylen" underflows to ~4GB,
leaving the payload copy length bounded only by blkoff (up to 64KB).
At runtime the skb_put() tailroom check turns this into
skb_over_panic(), i.e. an unprivileged kernel panic (DoS), reachable
locally via userns+netns IPTFS SAs and remotely against IPTFS VPN
gateways when the decrypted outer skb is linear (e.g. AF_PACKET taps,
tun/tap delivery).
Align the runt path with the normal path by requiring the declared
inner length to cover at least the IP header size. This also subsumes
the previous >= sizeof(ra_runt) check, since the minimum IP header
is always larger than the runt buffer.
This issue was found by the autokbug dynamic kernel fuzzer at
Tencent Yunding Lab.

The deferred-device pass in xfrm_dev_state_flush() finds states under
xfrm_state_dev_gc_lock, but drops the lock before calling
xfrm_dev_state_free() because the driver callback may sleep. The device
GC list does not hold an xfrm_state reference, so the state GC worker can
destroy the same state concurrently.
The race can proceed as follows:
CPU 0 CPU 1
find x on the device GC list
drop xfrm_state_dev_gc_lock
read x->xso.dev
xfrm_state_gc_destroy(x)
xfrm_dev_state_free(x)
xfrm_state_free(x)
continue xfrm_dev_state_free(x)
Both paths can invoke the driver callback and drop the device reference.
CPU 0 can also access the xfrm_state after CPU 1 has freed it.

iptfs_skb_reset_frag_walk() advances to the fragment containing @offset
with an unbounded loop:
while (offset >= walk->past + walk->frags[walk->fragi].len)
walk->past += walk->frags[walk->fragi++].len;
walk->fragi is advanced and walk->frags[walk->fragi] is dereferenced
without ever checking fragi against walk->nr_frags. When the requested
offset is at or beyond the total length spanned by the walk's fragments,
fragi runs past nr_frags and off the end of the fixed-size on-stack
frags[MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 1] array, reading out-of-bounds stack memory.
The two callers behave differently: iptfs_skb_add_frags() already guards
against this with
if (!walk->nr_frags ||
offset >= walk->total + walk->initial_offset)
return len;
but iptfs_skb_can_add_frags() has no such guard and calls
iptfs_skb_reset_frag_walk() unconditionally, so it performs the
out-of-range walk. Its own "fragi < walk->nr_frags" bound check runs only
afterwards, too late to prevent the read.
This is reachable from the receive path: a crafted IP-TFS (AGGFRAG)
payload delivered to an IPTFS SA drives iptfs_reassem_cont() ->
iptfs_skb_can_add_frags() with an offset past the fragment total, e.g.:

Give iptfs_skb_can_add_frags() the same up-front guard that
iptfs_skb_add_frags() already has, so the walk is never entered with an
out-of-range offset. When it triggers, the caller falls back to the
existing linearize-and-copy path, which is safe.

The v1 nat keepalive fix allocates a GFP_ATOMIC object for every state
while collecting references for phase two. This makes the worker's
temporary memory use depend on the number of states and lets -ENOMEM abort
the scan.
Replace the allocated list with a fixed-size batch. When the batch is full,
return a private walk status so xfrm_state_walk() leaves a cursor; drain
the references after the walk releases xfrm_state_lock and resume from
the cursor. This bounds temporary memory use and avoids the allocation
failure path.
The v1 fix also moved nat_keepalive_send() out of the walk callback. Keep
the phase-two drain BH-disabled, as required by local_lock_nested_bh()
used by the keepalive sockets.

attach_auth_trunc() can allocate x->aalg while leaving
x->props.aalgo at zero when the selected auth algorithm has no

xfrm_state_construct() then treats !x->props.aalgo as "no auth
algorithm attached yet" and calls attach_auth(). That overwrites
x->aalg and loses the first allocation. Any later failure or teardown
only frees the replacement pointer.
Check whether x->aalg is already attached instead of inferring that

AH6 rearranges routing-header addresses before computing or verifying the
ICV. ipv6_rearrange_rthdr() assumes that segments_left is not larger than
the number of addresses described by the routing header's hdrlen field.
That assumption does not hold for raw IPv6 HDRINCL packets. A packet with
hdrlen equal to 2 describes one address, but can carry an arbitrary
segments_left value. With segments_left equal to 255, the function moves
its address pointer 4,064 bytes backwards and passes a 4,064-byte length to
memmove(), resulting in an out-of-bounds access.
Validate the invariant locally before modifying the routing header or
performing any address-pointer arithmetic, and propagate malformed-header
errors to the existing AH6 input and output error paths.

nat_keepalive_work() walks the state table while xfrm_state_walk()
holds net->xfrm.xfrm_state_lock. Its callback then acquires x->lock,
which conflicts with the delete path taking the same locks in reverse
order via xfrm_state_delete() and __xfrm_state_delete(). This creates
an AB-BA deadlock that is reported by lockdep when a NAT keepalive
worker races with SA deletion.
Fix this by splitting the keepalive walk into two phases. First,
collect the candidate states while the walk holds xfrm_state_lock and
take a reference on each state. Then, after the walk completes, process
each collected state and acquire x->lock without nesting it under
xfrm_state_lock.

ESP-in-TCP receives records through the TCP strparser. handle_esp()
restores skb->dev from the saved skb_iif before passing the packet into
the XFRM input path.
Queued TCP data can be processed after the original ingress device has
been removed, for example during veth or net namespace teardown. In that
case dev_get_by_index_rcu() returns NULL. The XFRM IPv4 and IPv6 input
paths both expect skb->dev to be valid while building the route lookup,
so queued ESP-in-TCP data can dereference a NULL device.
Drop the packet if the saved ingress device can no longer be resolved.
Such a packet can no longer be routed through the normal XFRM receive
path, and this preserves the existing behaviour for packets whose ingress
device still exists.

ZDI reported and analyzed a race condition during close for espintcp
sockets:
espintcp_close() frees emsg->skb via kfree_skb() without holding
any socket lock. Concurrently, the xfrm_trans_reinject work queue
invokes esp_output_tcp_finish() -> espintcp_push_skb() ->
espintcp_push_msgs() -> skb_send_sock_locked(), which reads the
same skb as a data source.
Fix this by adding a synchronize_rcu() call after resetting sk_prot,
since esp_output_tcp_finish() runs under RCU and won't use a socket
with sk_prot == &tcp_prot. Simply taking the socket lock in
espintcp_close() could lead to leaks, if esp_output_tcp_finish()
re-adds an skb in the slot we just freed. After this, the existing
barrier() is no longer needed.

esp_ssg_unref() releases the page references held on the source
scatterlist after the AEAD operation completes. It calls
skb_page_unref() on every frag page for an out-of-place transform
(req->src != req->dst), and in the error path of esp_output_tail()
(already_unref == true) on the request's own scatterlist.
This is wrong when the skb carries managed frags
(SKBFL_MANAGED_FRAG_REFS). Managed frags are owned by a zerocopy ubuf
and the skb does not hold a per-frag page reference; io_uring SEND_ZC
with a registered buffer attaches the bvec pages this way via
io_sg_from_iter(). The rest of the stack honours this invariant:
skb_release_data() skips the per-frag unref when SKBFL_MANAGED_FRAG_REFS
is set, and skb_zcopy_managed() is the guard used at the other unref
sites.
esp_ssg_unref() is missing that guard, so for a managed-frag skb it
drops a page reference the skb never acquired. This can underflow the
page reference count and free a page that is still in use.
Guard the function with skb_zcopy_managed() so both unref paths are
skipped for managed-frag skbs, matching skb_release_data().

Open vSwitch stores generated flow actions as nlattrs, whose nla_len
field is u16. Commit a1e64addf3 ("net: openvswitch: remove
misbehaving actions length check") allowed the total sw_flow_actions
stream to grow beyond 64 KiB, which is valid, but also removed the last
guard preventing a generated nested action attribute from exceeding
U16_MAX.
An oversized generated container can thus be closed with a truncated
nla_len. A later dump or teardown then walks a structurally different
stream than the one that was validated. In particular, an oversized
nested CLONE/CT action may cause subsequent bytes in the generated
stream to be interpreted as independent actions.
Keep the larger total-action-stream behavior, but make nested action
close reject generated containers that do not fit in nla_len, and return
the error through all callers. For recursive SAMPLE, CLONE, DEC_TTL, and
CHECK_PKT_LEN builders, trim resource-owning action-list tails in reverse
construction order before discarding failed wrappers, so resources copied
into the rejected tails are released before the wrappers are removed.
Most failed outer wrappers are discarded by truncating actions_len after
child resources have been released. CHECK_PKT_LEN also trims its parent
after branch resources are gone. SET/TUNNEL close failures unwind their
known tun_dst ownership directly, and SET_TO_MASKED has no external
ownership and truncates on close failure.

====================
pull request (net): ipsec 2026-07-10
1) xfrm: propagate -EINPROGRESS from validate_xmit_xfrm()
Return -EINPROGRESS from xfrm_output_one when validate_xmit_xfrm
requeues the packet asynchronously, so the caller doesn't treat it
as a real error and free the skb.
2) xfrm: fix stale skb->prev after async crypto steals a GSO segment
Re-derive skb->prev from the fragment list after async crypto splits
a GSO skb, keeping the linked-list pointers validi.
3) xfrm: nat_keepalive: avoid double free on send error
Hold a state ref while the nat_keepalive timer is active and drop the
timer before freeing the state, preventing a re-entered free on send
error.
4) xfrm: fix sk_dst_cache double-free in xfrm_user_policy()
Null the skb dst cache before freeing the policy so a later skb
destructor doesn't double-free it.
5) xfrm: cache the offload ifindex for netlink dumps
Cache the device ifindex at state-add time and use it for netlink
dumps instead of dereferencing dst->dev, which may have changed by
the time the dump runs.
6) xfrm: reject optional IPTFS templates in outbound policies
Reject outbound policies with an optional IPTFS template,
IPTFS must always be used if configured.
7) xfrm: clear mode callbacks after failed mode setup
Clear the mode->init_flags and init_state callbacks on the error path
after xfrm_init_mode fails, so a partially-initialised mode isn't
reused in xfrm_state_construct.
8) xfrm: iptfs: propagate SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG in iptfs_skb_add_frags()
Propagate SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG from the original skb to fragments
allocated by iptfs_skb_add_frags, keeping shared-fragment accounting
correct after IPTFS reassembly.
9) xfrm6: clear dst.dev on error to avoid double netdev_put in xfrm6_fill_dst()
Clear dst->dev on the error path of xfrm6_fill_dst() so the caller
doesn't release the netdev reference twice via dst_release.
10) xfrm: policy: preallocate inexact bins before xfrm_hash_rebuild reinsert
Preallocate all inexact hash bins before existing entries are
reinserted during xfrm_hash_rebuild, so reinsertion always hits an
existing bin.
Please pull or let me know if there are problems.

When an ERROR chunk with a STALE_COOKIE cause is received in the
COOKIE_ECHOED state, sctp_sf_do_5_2_6_stale() reads the 4-byte Measure
of Staleness that follows the cause header:
err = (struct sctp_errhdr *)(chunk->skb->data);
stale = ntohl(*(__be32 *)((u8 *)err + sizeof(*err)));
err is the first cause in the chunk, not the STALE_COOKIE cause that
caused the dispatch, and nothing guarantees the staleness field is
present. sctp_walk_errors() only requires a cause to be as long as the
4-byte header, so for a STALE_COOKIE cause of length 4 the read runs
past the cause, and for a minimal ERROR chunk past skb->tail. The value
is echoed to the peer in the Cookie Preservative of the reply INIT,
leaking uninitialized memory.
sctp_sf_cookie_echoed_err() already walks to the STALE_COOKIE cause, so
check its length there and pass it to sctp_sf_do_5_2_6_stale(), which
reads that cause instead of the first one. A STALE_COOKIE cause too
short to hold the staleness field is discarded.
The read is reachable by any peer that can drive an association into
COOKIE_ECHOED, including an unprivileged process using a raw SCTP socket
in a user and network namespace.

afiucv_hs_rcv() looks up the destination socket under iucv_sk_list.lock,
drops the lock, and then passes the socket to the afiucv_hs_callback_*()
handlers without holding a reference. AF_IUCV sockets are not
RCU-protected and are freed synchronously by iucv_sock_kill() ->
sock_put(), so a concurrent close can free the socket in the window
between read_unlock() and the handler, which then dereferences freed
memory (for example sk->sk_data_ready() in afiucv_hs_callback_syn()).
Take a reference with sock_hold() while the socket is still on the list
and release it with sock_put() once the handler has run.

fib_table_insert() publishes new_fa into the leaf's fa_list with
fib_insert_alias() before calling the fib entry notifiers. When a
notifier fails, the error path removes new_fa with fib_remove_alias()
(hlist_del_rcu) and frees it right away with kmem_cache_free().
fib_table_lookup() walks that list under rcu_read_lock() only, so a
concurrent lookup that already reached new_fa keeps reading it after the
free:

pppol2tp_recv() runs in the L2TP UDP-encap softirq RX path:
l2tp_udp_encap_recv() -> l2tp_recv_common() -> pppol2tp_recv()
-> ppp_input(&po->chan)
It runs under rcu_read_lock() holding only an l2tp_session reference and
takes NO reference on the internal PPP channel (struct channel,
chan->ppp) that ppp_input() dereferences.
The pppox socket is SOCK_RCU_FREE, so 'po' and the embedded ppp_channel
are RCU-safe. But the internal struct channel is a separate allocation
that ppp_release_channel() frees with a plain kfree():
close(data socket) -> pppol2tp_release() -> pppox_unbind_sock()
-> ppp_unregister_channel() -> ppp_release_channel() -> kfree(pch)
For a channel that is bound (PPPIOCGCHAN) but not attached to a ppp unit
(no PPPIOCCONNECT, pch->ppp == NULL) and not bridged, teardown skips
both ppp_disconnect_channel()'s synchronize_net() and
ppp_unbridge_channels()'s synchronize_rcu(), so the kfree() has no grace
period. rcu_read_lock() in pppol2tp_recv() does not protect against a
plain kfree(), so an in-flight ppp_input() on one CPU can dereference
the channel just freed by close() on another CPU.
The bug is reachable by an unprivileged user.
Defer the channel free to an RCU callback via call_rcu() so the grace
period fences any in-flight ppp_input(). The disconnect and unbridge
teardown paths already fence with synchronize_net()/synchronize_rcu();
call_rcu() does the same here without stalling the close() path.

macsec_encrypt() reads the Ethernet header via eth_hdr(skb)
(skb->head + skb->mac_header) to memmove() the 12 source/destination MAC
bytes forward and make room for the SecTAG.
On the AF_PACKET SOCK_RAW + PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS transmit path the skb
reaches the macsec ndo_start_xmit() with the MAC header unset, so
eth_hdr(skb) resolves to skb->head + (u16)~0 and the read is out of
bounds: a 12-byte heap over-read that is also emitted on the wire as the
frame's outer source/destination MAC. KASAN reports a slab-out-of-bounds
read in macsec_start_xmit() on 6.0; on current mainline a CONFIG_DEBUG_NET
build flags it as an unset mac header in skb_mac_header().
On the TX path the L2 header is at skb->data, so use skb_eth_hdr(), added
by commit 96cc4b6958 ("macvlan: do not assume mac_header is set in
macvlan_broadcast()") for exactly this purpose.

The loopback move_data() performs a memcpy into the registered DMB
without checking whether offset + size exceeds the DMB length. Unlike
real ISM hardware, which enforces memory region bounds natively, the
software loopback has no such protection.
A peer-supplied out-of-bounds offset or oversized write would result in
an OOB write past the allocated kernel buffer. Add an explicit bounds
check before the memcpy to reject such requests with -EINVAL.

Mbox handling of nix_set_rx_mode for a VF with promiscuous and
all_multi flags set to false causes deletion of the PF's promiscuous

that a VF bringing up or tearing down its interface cannot inadvertently

====================
netfilter: updates for net
The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for *net*.
Most of these are LLM fixes for old issues flagged by sashiko/LLMs.
Many of these trigger drive-by-findings in sashiko. In particular:
- many load/store tearing and missing memory barriers, races
etc. in ipset, esp. with GC and resizing.
Keeping the proposed patches spinning for yet-another-iteration
keeps legit fixes back, so I prefer to add these now and follow
up with other reports later.
- flowtable work queue still has possible races with teardown,
but same rationale as with ipset: drive-by findings, not
problems coming with the flowtable IPIP changeset in this PR.
- ever since unreadable frag skb support was added in 6.12, we can no
longer do: BUG_ON(skb_copy_bits( ...): it will fire with such skbs.
Mina Almasry is looking at similar patterns elsewhere in the stack.
1) Guard skb->mac_header adjustment after IPv6 defragmentation in
nf_conntrack_reasm. From Xiang Mei.
2) NUL-terminate ebtables table names before calling find_table_lock() to
prevent stack-out-of-bounds reads. Also from Xiang Mei.
3) Zero the ebtables chainstack array, else error unwind may free bogus
pointer when CPU mask is sparse. All three issues date from 2.6 days.
4) Ensure ebtables module names are c-strings, same bug pattern as 2).
Bug added in 4.6.
5) Fix catchall element handling for inverted lookups in nft_lookup. Fold the
catchall lookup into ext before computing the match status. Was like
this ever since catchall elements got introduced in 5.13.
From Tamaki Yanagawa.
6-9) ipset updates from Jozsef Kadlecsik:
- mark rcu protected areas correctly
- address gc and resize clash in the comment extension
- add/del backlog cleanup in the error path
- allocate right size for the generic hash structure
10-12): IPIP flowtable updates from Pablo Neira Ayuso:
- Use the current direction's route when pushing IPIP headers
Fix incorrect headroom and fragmentation offset calculations.
- Avoid hardware offload for IPIP tunnels due to lack of driver support.
- Support IPIP tunnels with direct xmit in netfilter flowtable.
dst_cache and dst_cookie are moved outside the union to share route
state across flows. This is a followup to work done in 6.19 cycle.
13) Don't BUG() on skb_copy_bits error. Handle unreadable fragments by
either returning an error or restricting the copy operations to linear area,
This became an issue when unreable frag support was merged in 6.12.
14-16): IPVS updates from Yizhou Zhao:
- Pass parsed transport offset to IPVS state handlers.
update callback signatures.
- use correct transport header offset on state lookp in TCP.
As-is it was possible for ipv6 extension header data to be
treated as L4 header.
- same for SCTP. This was also broken since 2.6 days.
17) Ensure inner IP headers in ICMP errors are in the skb headroom after
stripping outer headers. Add more checks for the length of inner headers.
This was broken since 3.7 days.
From Julian Anastasov.

ETHTOOL_A_RSS_HFUNC and ETHTOOL_A_RSS_INPUT_XFRM are NLA_U32 attributes,
but ethnl_rss_set() and ethnl_rss_create_doit() parse them with
ethnl_update_u8(), which reads a single byte.
On little endian this happens to read the least significant byte and
works as long as the value fits in a byte. On big endian it reads the
most significant byte, so the requested value is parsed incorrectly.
The destination fields in struct ethtool_rxfh_param are u8, so the
attribute can't be read directly with ethnl_update_u32().
Cap the hfunc policy at U8_MAX so an out of range value is rejected
instead of being silently truncated into the u8 field, and add
ethnl_update_u8_u32() to read the full u32 and narrow it into the u8
destination.

====================
Fix MANA RX with bounce buffering
With swiotlb=force, the MANA NIC fails to work properly due to commit
730ff06d3f ("net: mana: Use page pool fragments for RX buffers instead
of full pages to improve memory efficiency.").
This happens because, with the standard MTU=1500, the aforementioned
commit uses page pool frags with PP_FLAG_DMA_MAP, but fails to call
page_pool_dma_sync_for_cpu() to sync the received packet for CPU acces
before handing the RX buffer to the stack.
Here patch #2 adds the required page_pool_dma_sync_for_cpu().
Patch #1 validates the packet length reported by the NIC. With patch #2,
page_pool_dma_sync_for_cpu() uses the packet length, so we don't want
to blindly trust the packet length, just in case.
There is no change between v2 and v3.
v3 just swaps the order of the 2 patches in v2, as suggested by Simon [3].

MANA allocates RX buffers from page pool fragments when frag_count is
greater than 1. In that case the buffers remain DMA mapped by page pool
and the RX completion path does not call dma_unmap_single(). As a result,
the implicit sync-for-CPU normally performed by dma_unmap_single() is
missing before the packet data is passed to the networking stack.
This breaks RX on configurations which require explicit DMA syncing, for
example when booted with swiotlb=force.
Fix this by recording the page pool page and DMA sync offset when the RX
buffer is allocated, and syncing the received packet range for CPU access
before handing the RX buffer to the stack.

In tcp_mmap.c, both child_thread() and main() allocate an EVP_MD_CTX
via EVP_MD_CTX_new() when integrity checking is enabled, but neither
function releases the context. child_thread() misses the free in its
common cleanup block, and main() returns without freeing the context.
This results in a SHA256 context leak on every run that uses the
‑i (integrity) option. Add the missing EVP_MD_CTX_free() calls to
the appropriate cleanup paths to fix the leak.

Also, add more checks for the length of the inner headers.

set_sctp_state() reads the SCTP chunk header again in order to drive the
IPVS SCTP state table. For IPv6 it computes the offset with
sizeof(struct ipv6hdr), while the surrounding IPVS code uses iph.len from
ip_vs_fill_iph_skb(), where ipv6_find_hdr() has already skipped
extension headers and found the real transport header.
This makes the state machine read from the wrong offset for IPv6 SCTP
packets that carry extension headers. For example, an INIT packet with an
8-byte destination options header can be scheduled correctly by
sctp_conn_schedule(), but set_sctp_state() reads the first byte of the
SCTP verification tag as a DATA chunk type. The connection then moves
from NONE to ESTABLISHED instead of INIT1, gets the longer established
timeout, and updates the active/inactive destination counters
incorrectly. This happens even though the SCTP handshake has not
completed.
Use the parsed transport offset passed down from ip_vs_set_state() for
the SCTP chunk-header lookup. For IPv4 and IPv6 packets without
extension headers this preserves the existing offset.

TCP state handling reparses the skb to find the TCP header. For IPv6 it
uses sizeof(struct ipv6hdr), while the surrounding IPVS code already

This makes TCP state handling look at the wrong bytes when an IPv6

For IPv4 and for IPv6 packets without extension headers, the passed

IPVS callers already parse the packet into struct ip_vs_iphdr before
updating connection state. For IPv6 this records the real
transport-header offset after extension headers in iph.len.
Pass this parsed transport offset through ip_vs_set_state() and the
protocol state_transition() callback so protocol handlers can use the
same packet context as scheduling and NAT handling. This patch only
changes the common callback plumbing and adapts the protocol callback
signatures; TCP and SCTP start using the value in follow-up patches.

The combination of IPIP tunnel with direct xmit, eg. bridge device,
breaks because no dst_entry is provided to check the skb headroom and to
set the iph->frag_off field. This leads to invalid dst usage and can
trigger a crash in the tunnel transmit path.
Fix this by moving dst_cache and dst_cookie out of the runtime union so
that they can be shared by neighbour, xfrm, and direct tunnel flows.
For FLOW_OFFLOAD_XMIT_DIRECT tuples carrying tunnel metadata, preserve
route state in these shared fields and release it through the common
dst release path.
Since dst_entry is now available to the three supported xmit modes and
dst_release() already deals with NULL dst, remove the xmit type check
in nft_flow_dst_release(). Moreover, skip the check if the dst entry
is NULL in nf_flow_dst_check() which is now the case for the direct
xmit case.

No driver supports for IPIP tunnels yet, give up early on setting up the
hardware offload for this scenario.
This patch adds a stub that can be enhanced to add more configuration
that are currently not supported. As of now, the offload work is
enqueued to the worker, then ignored if the hardware offload
configuration is not supported.
Check the NF_FLOW_HW flag to know if this entry was already tried once
to be offloaded so this is not retried on refresh when unsupported. Move
NF_FLOW_HW flag check to nf_flow_offload_add(). If this NF_FLOW_HW flag
is unset the _del and _stats variants are never called.
This can be updated later on to skip hardware offload work to be queued
in case hardware offload does not support it.

When pushing the IPIP header, the route of the other direction is used
to calculate the headroom, use the route in this direction. Accessing
the other tuple to set the IP source and destination is fine because
this tuple does not provide such information to avoid storing redundant
information. However, this tuple already provides the dst for this
direction, this went unnoticed because this bug affects headroom and

Zhengchuan Liang and Eulgyu Kim reported that because resize
does not copy the comment extension into the resized set but
uses it's pointer, ongoing gc can free the extension in the
original set which then results stale pointer in the resized
one. The proposed patch was to recreate the extensions for
every element in the resized set. It is both expensive and
wastes memory, so better exclude gc when resizing in progress
detected: resizing will destroy the original set anyway,
so doing gc on it is unnecessary.
Introduce a new spinlock to exclude parallel gc and resize.
Because we just set and check a bool value, there's no need
for the parameter to be atomic_t and rename it for better
readability.
