Its possible that two threads call tcp_v6_do_rcv()/sk_forward_alloc_add()
concurrently when sk->sk_state == TCP_LISTEN with sk->sk_lock unlocked,
which triggers a data-race around sk->sk_forward_alloc:
tcp_v6_rcv
    tcp_v6_do_rcv
        skb_clone_and_charge_r
            sk_rmem_schedule
                __sk_mem_schedule
                    sk_forward_alloc_add()
            skb_set_owner_r
                sk_mem_charge
                    sk_forward_alloc_add()
        __kfree_skb
            skb_release_all
                skb_release_head_state
                    sock_rfree
                        sk_mem_uncharge
                            sk_forward_alloc_add()
                            sk_mem_reclaim
                                // set local var reclaimable
                                __sk_mem_reclaim
                                    sk_forward_alloc_add()

In this syzkaller testcase, two threads call
tcp_v6_do_rcv() with skb->truesize=768, the sk_forward_alloc changes like
this:
 (cpu 1)             | (cpu 2)             | sk_forward_alloc
 ...                 | ...                 | 0
 __sk_mem_schedule() |                     | +4096 = 4096
                     | __sk_mem_schedule() | +4096 = 8192
 sk_mem_charge()     |                     | -768  = 7424
                     | sk_mem_charge()     | -768  = 6656
 ...                 |    ...              |
 sk_mem_uncharge()   |                     | +768  = 7424
 reclaimable=7424    |                     |
                     | sk_mem_uncharge()   | +768  = 8192
                     | reclaimable=8192    |
 __sk_mem_reclaim()  |                     | -4096 = 4096
                     | __sk_mem_reclaim()  | -8192 = -4096 != 0

The skb_clone_and_charge_r() should not be called in tcp_v6_do_rcv() when
sk->sk_state is TCP_LISTEN, it happens later in tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock().
Fix the same issue in dccp_v6_do_rcv().

d37fe4255a tcp: fix race in tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock()
tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock() calls ip6_dst_store() before
inet_sk(newsk)->pinet6 has been set up.

This means ip6_dst_store() writes over the parent (listener)
np->dst_cookie.

This is racy because multiple threads could share the same
parent and their final np->dst_cookie could be wrong.

Move ip6_dst_store() call after inet_sk(newsk)->pinet6
has been changed and after the copy of parent ipv6_pinfo.

These functions have races when they:

1) Write sk->sk_err
2) call sk_error_report(sk)
3) call tcp_done(sk)

As described in prior patches in this series:

An smp_wmb() is missing.
We should call tcp_done() before sk_error_report(sk)
to have consistent tcp_poll() results on SMP hosts.

Use tcp_done_with_error() where we centralized the
correct sequence.

f4dca95fc0 tcp: reduce accepted window in NEW_SYN_RECV state
Jason commit made checks against ACK sequence less strict
and can be exploited by attackers to establish spoofed flows
with less probes.

Innocent users might use tcp_rmem[1] == 1,000,000,000,
or something more reasonable.

An attacker can use a regular TCP connection to learn the server
initial tp->rcv_wnd, and use it to optimize the attack.

If we make sure that only the announced window (smaller than 65535)
is used for ACK validation, we force an attacker to use
65537 packets to complete the 3WHS (assuming server ISN is unknown)

To make the design scalable for future needs this commit bring in
the change to extend the tstamp_type:1 to tstamp_type:2 to support
other clockid_t timestamp.

We now support CLOCK_TAI as part of tstamp_type as part of this

4d25ca2d68 net: Rename mono_delivery_time to tstamp_type for scalabilty
mono_delivery_time was added to check if skb->tstamp has delivery
time in mono clock base (i.e. EDT) otherwise skb->tstamp has
timestamp in ingress and delivery_time at egress.

Renaming the bitfield from mono_delivery_time to tstamp_type is for
extensibilty for other timestamps such as userspace timestamp
(i.e. SO_TXTIME) set via sock opts.

As we are renaming the mono_delivery_time to tstamp_type, it makes
sense to start assigning tstamp_type based on enum defined
in this commit.

Earlier we used bool arg flag to check if the tstamp is mono in
function skb_set_delivery_time, Now the signature of the functions
accepts tstamp_type to distinguish between mono and real time.

Also skb_set_delivery_type_by_clockid is a new function which accepts
clockid to determine the tstamp_type.

In future tstamp_type:1 can be extended to support userspace timestamp
by increasing the bitfield.

41eecbd712 tcp: replace TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->tcp_tw_isn with a per-cpu field
TCP can transform a TIMEWAIT socket into a SYN_RECV one from
a SYN packet, and the ISN of the SYNACK packet is normally
generated using TIMEWAIT tw_snd_nxt :

tcp_timewait_state_process()
...
    u32 isn = tcptw->tw_snd_nxt + 65535 + 2;
    if (isn == 0)
        isn++;
    TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->tcp_tw_isn = isn;
    return TCP_TW_SYN;

This SYN packet also bypasses normal checks against listen queue
being full or not.

tcp_conn_request()
...
       __u32 isn = TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->tcp_tw_isn;
...
        /* TW buckets are converted to open requests without
         * limitations, they conserve resources and peer is
         * evidently real one.
         */
        if ((syncookies == 2 || inet_csk_reqsk_queue_is_full(sk)) && !isn) {
                want_cookie = tcp_syn_flood_action(sk, rsk_ops->slab_name);
                if (!want_cookie)
                        goto drop;
        }

This was using TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->tcp_tw_isn field in skb.

Unfortunately this field has been accidentally cleared
after the call to tcp_timewait_state_process() returning
TCP_TW_SYN.

Using a field in TCP_SKB_CB(skb) for a temporary state
is overkill.

Switch instead to a per-cpu variable.

As a bonus, we do not have to clear tcp_tw_isn in TCP receive
fast path.
It is temporarily set then cleared only in the TCP_TW_SYN dance.

19822a980e trace: tcp: fully support trace_tcp_send_reset
Prior to this patch, what we can see by enabling trace_tcp_send is
only happening under two circumstances:
1) active rst mode
2) non-active rst mode and based on the full socket

That means the inconsistency occurs if we use tcpdump and trace
simultaneously to see how rst happens.

It's necessary that we should take into other cases into considerations,
say:
1) time-wait socket
2) no socket
...

By parsing the incoming skb and reversing its 4-tuple can
we know the exact 'flow' which might not exist.

Samples after applied this patch:
1. tcp_send_reset: skbaddr=XXX skaddr=XXX src=ip:port dest=ip:port
state=TCP_ESTABLISHED
2. tcp_send_reset: skbaddr=000...000 skaddr=XXX src=ip:port dest=ip:port
state=UNKNOWN
Note:
1) UNKNOWN means we cannot extract the right information from skb.
2) skbaddr/skaddr could be 0

0a8de364ff tcp: no longer abort SYN_SENT when receiving some ICMP
Currently, non fatal ICMP messages received on behalf
of SYN_SENT sockets do call tcp_ld_RTO_revert()
to implement RFC 6069, but immediately call tcp_done(),
thus aborting the connect() attempt.

This violates RFC 1122 following requirement:

4.2.3.9  ICMP Messages
...
          o    Destination Unreachable -- codes 0, 1, 5

                 Since these Unreachable messages indicate soft error
                 conditions, TCP MUST NOT abort the connection, and it
                 SHOULD make the information available to the
                 application.

This patch makes sure non 'fatal' ICMP[v6] messages do not
abort the connection attempt.

It enables RFC 6069 for SYN_SENT sockets as a result.

248411b8cb net/tcp: Wire up l3index to TCP-AO
Similarly how TCP_MD5SIG_FLAG_IFINDEX works for TCP-MD5,
TCP_AO_KEYF_IFINDEX is an AO-key flag that binds that MKT to a specified
by L3 ifinndex. Similarly, without this flag the key will work in
the default VRF l3index = 0 for connections.
To prevent AO-keys from overlapping, it's restricted to add key B for a
socket that has key A, which have the same sndid/rcvid and one of
the following is true:
- !(A.keyflags & TCP_AO_KEYF_IFINDEX) or !(B.keyflags & TCP_AO_KEYF_IFINDEX)
  so that any key is non-bound to a VRF
- A.l3index == B.l3index
  both want to work for the same VRF

Additionally, it's restricted to match TCP-MD5 keys for the same peer
the following way:
|--------------|--------------------|----------------|---------------|
|              | MD5 key without    |     MD5 key    |    MD5 key    |
|              |     l3index        |    l3index=0   |   l3index=N   |
|--------------|--------------------|----------------|---------------|
|  TCP-AO key  |                    |                |               |
|  without     |       reject       |    reject      |   reject      |
|  l3index     |                    |                |               |
|--------------|--------------------|----------------|---------------|
|  TCP-AO key  |                    |                |               |
|  l3index=0   |       reject       |    reject      |   allow       |
|--------------|--------------------|----------------|---------------|
|  TCP-AO key  |                    |                |               |
|  l3index=N   |       reject       |    allow       |   reject      |
|--------------|--------------------|----------------|---------------|

This is done with the help of tcp_md5_do_lookup_any_l3index() to reject
adding AO key without TCP_AO_KEYF_IFINDEX if there's TCP-MD5 in any VRF.
This is important for case where sysctl_tcp_l3mdev_accept = 1
Similarly, for TCP-AO lookups tcp_ao_do_lookup() may be used with
l3index < 0, so that __tcp_ao_key_cmp() will match TCP-AO key in any VRF.

1e03d32bea net/tcp: Add TCP-AO sign to outgoing packets
Using precalculated traffic keys, sign TCP segments as prescribed by
RFC5925. Per RFC, TCP header options are included in sign calculation:
"The TCP header, by default including options, and where the TCP
checksum and TCP-AO MAC fields are set to zero, all in network-
byte order." (5.1.3)

tcp_ao_hash_header() has exclude_options parameter to optionally exclude
TCP header from hash calculation, as described in RFC5925 (9.1), this is
needed for interaction with middleboxes that may change "some TCP
options". This is wired up to AO key flags and setsockopt() later.

Similarly to TCP-MD5 hash TCP segment fragments.

From this moment a user can start sending TCP-AO signed segments with
one of crypto ahash algorithms from supported by Linux kernel. It can
have a user-specified MAC length, to either save TCP option header space
or provide higher protection using a longer signature.
The inbound segments are not yet verified, TCP-AO option is ignored and
they are accepted.

4954f17dde net/tcp: Introduce TCP_AO setsockopt()s
Add 3 setsockopt()s:
1. TCP_AO_ADD_KEY to add a new Master Key Tuple (MKT) on a socket
2. TCP_AO_DEL_KEY to delete present MKT from a socket
3. TCP_AO_INFO to change flags, Current_key/RNext_key on a TCP-AO sk

Userspace has to introduce keys on every socket it wants to use TCP-AO
option on, similarly to TCP_MD5SIG/TCP_MD5SIG_EXT.
RFC5925 prohibits definition of MKTs that would match the same peer,
so do sanity checks on the data provided by userspace. Be as
conservative as possible, including refusal of defining MKT on
an established connection with no AO, removing the key in-use and etc.

(1) and (2) are to be used by userspace key manager to add/remove keys.
(3) main purpose is to set RNext_key, which (as prescribed by RFC5925)
is the KeyID that will be requested in TCP-AO header from the peer to
sign their segments with.

At this moment the life of ao_info ends in tcp_v4_destroy_sock().

8c73b26315 net/tcp: Prepare tcp_md5sig_pool for TCP-AO
TCP-AO, similarly to TCP-MD5, needs to allocate tfms on a slow-path,
which is setsockopt() and use crypto ahash requests on fast paths,
which are RX/TX softirqs. Also, it needs a temporary/scratch buffer
for preparing the hash.

Rework tcp_md5sig_pool in order to support other hashing algorithms
than MD5. It will make it possible to share pre-allocated crypto_ahash
descriptors and scratch area between all TCP hash users.

Internally tcp_sigpool calls crypto_clone_ahash() API over pre-allocated
crypto ahash tfm. Kudos to Herbert, who provided this new crypto API.

I was a little concerned over GFP_ATOMIC allocations of ahash and
crypto_request in RX/TX (see tcp_sigpool_start()), so I benchmarked both
"backends" with different algorithms, using patched version of iperf3[2].
On my laptop with i7-7600U @ 2.80GHz:

                         clone-tfm                per-CPU-requests
TCP-MD5                  2.25 Gbits/sec           2.30 Gbits/sec
TCP-AO(hmac(sha1))       2.53 Gbits/sec           2.54 Gbits/sec
TCP-AO(hmac(sha512))     1.67 Gbits/sec           1.64 Gbits/sec
TCP-AO(hmac(sha384))     1.77 Gbits/sec           1.80 Gbits/sec
TCP-AO(hmac(sha224))     1.29 Gbits/sec           1.30 Gbits/sec
TCP-AO(hmac(sha3-512))    481 Mbits/sec            480 Mbits/sec
TCP-AO(hmac(md5))        2.07 Gbits/sec           2.12 Gbits/sec
TCP-AO(hmac(rmd160))     1.01 Gbits/sec            995 Mbits/sec
TCP-AO(cmac(aes128))     [not supporetd yet]      2.11 Gbits/sec

So, it seems that my concerns don't have strong grounds and per-CPU
crypto_request allocation can be dropped/removed from tcp_sigpool once
ciphers get crypto_clone_ahash() support.

e57a344785 ipv6: drop feature RTAX_FEATURE_ALLFRAG
RTAX_FEATURE_ALLFRAG was added before the first git commit:

https://www.mail-archive.com/bk-commits-head@vger.kernel.org/msg03399.html

The feature would send packets to the fragmentation path if a box
receives a PMTU value with less than 1280 byte. However, since commit
9d289715eb ("ipv6: stop sending PTB packets for MTU < 1280"), such
message would be simply discarded. The feature flag is neither supported
in iproute2 utility. In theory one can still manipulate it with direct
netlink message, but it is not ideal because it was based on obsoleted
guidance of RFC-2460 (replaced by RFC-8200).

The feature would always test false at the moment, so remove related
code or mark them as unused.

614e8316aa tcp: add support for usec resolution in TCP TS values
Back in 2015, Van Jacobson suggested to use usec resolution in TCP TS values.
This has been implemented in our private kernels.

Goals were :

1) better observability of delays in networking stacks.
2) better disambiguation of events based on TSval/ecr values.
3) building block for congestion control modules needing usec resolution.

Back then we implemented a schem based on private SYN options
to negotiate the feature.

For upstream submission, we chose to use a route attribute,
because this feature is probably going to be used in private
networks [1] [2].

ip route add 10/8 ... features tcp_usec_ts

Note that RFC 7323 recommends a
  "timestamp clock frequency in the range 1 ms to 1 sec per tick.",
but also mentions
  "the maximum acceptable clock frequency is one tick every 59 ns."

[1] Unfortunately RFC 7323 5.5 (Outdated Timestamps) suggests
to invalidate TS.Recent values after a flow was idle for more
than 24 days. This is the part making usec_ts a problem
for peers following this recommendation for long living
idle flows.

[2] Attempts to standardize usec ts went nowhere:
