vsock: add write-once semantics to child_ns_mode
Two administrator processes may race when setting child_ns_mode: one
sets it to "local" and creates a namespace, but another changes it to
"global" in between. The first process ends up with a namespace in the
wrong mode. Make child_ns_mode write-once so that a namespace manager
can set it once, check the value, and be guaranteed it won't change
before creating its namespaces. Writing a different value after the
first write returns -EBUSY.
One patch for the implementation, one for docs, and one for tests.

vsock: lock down child_ns_mode as write-once
Two administrator processes may race when setting child_ns_mode as one
process sets child_ns_mode to "local" and then creates a namespace, but
another process changes child_ns_mode to "global" between the write and
the namespace creation. The first process ends up with a namespace in
"global" mode instead of "local". While this can be detected after the
fact by reading ns_mode and retrying, it is fragile and error-prone.
Make child_ns_mode write-once so that a namespace manager can set it
once and be sure it won't change. Writing a different value after the
first write returns -EBUSY. This applies to all namespaces, including
init_net, where an init process can write "local" to lock all future
namespaces into local mode.

The child_ns_mode sysctl parameter becomes write-once in a future patch

Add "global-parent" and "local-parent" namespaces as intermediaries to
spawn namespaces in the given modes. This avoids the need to change
"child_ns_mode" in the init_ns. nsenter must be used because ip netns
unshares the mount namespace so nested "ip netns add" breaks exec calls

team: Fix reference count leak when changing port netns
Patch #1 fixes a reference count leak that was reported by syzkaller.
The leak happens when a net device that is member in a team is changing
netns. The fix is to align the team driver with the bond driver and have
it suppress NETDEV_CHANGEMTU events for a net device that is being
unregistered.
Without this change, the NETDEV_CHANGEMTU event causes inetdev_event()
to recreate an inet device for this net device in its original netns,
after it was previously destroyed upon NETDEV_UNREGISTER. Later on, when
inetdev_event() receives a NETDEV_REGISTER event for this net device in
the new nents, it simply leaks the reference:
case NETDEV_REGISTER:
pr_debug("%s: bug\n", __func__);
RCU_INIT_POINTER(dev->ip_ptr, NULL);
break;
addrconf_notify() handles this differently and reuses the existing inet6
device if one exists when a NETDEV_REGISTER event is received. This
creates a different problem where it is possible for a net device to
reference an inet6 device that was created in a previous netns.
A more generic fix that we can try in net-next is to revert the changes
in the bond and team drivers and instead have IPv4 and IPv6 destroy and
recreate an inet device if one already exists upon NETDEV_REGISTER.
Patch #2 adds a selftest that passes with the fix and hangs without it.

net: mana: Fix double destroy_workqueue on service rescan PCI path
While testing corner cases in the driver, a use-after-free crash
was found on the service rescan PCI path.
When mana_serv_reset() calls mana_gd_suspend(), mana_gd_cleanup()
destroys gc->service_wq. If the subsequent mana_gd_resume() fails
with -ETIMEDOUT or -EPROTO, the code falls through to
mana_serv_rescan() which triggers pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device().
This invokes the PCI .remove callback (mana_gd_remove), which calls
mana_gd_cleanup() a second time, attempting to destroy the already-
freed workqueue. Fix this by NULL-checking gc->service_wq in
mana_gd_cleanup() and setting it to NULL after destruction.

tcp: re-enable acceptance of FIN packets when RWIN is 0
Commit 2bd99aef1b19 ("tcp: accept bare FIN packets under memory
pressure") allowed accepting FIN packets in tcp_data_queue() even when
the receive window was closed, to prevent ACK/FIN loops with broken
clients.
Such a FIN packet is in sequence, but because the FIN consumes a
sequence number, it extends beyond the window. Before commit 9ca48d616ed7 ("tcp: do not accept packets beyond window"),
tcp_sequence() only required the seq to be within the window. After
that change, the entire packet (including the FIN) must fit within the
window. As a result, such FIN packets are now dropped and the handling
path is no longer reached.
Be more lenient by not counting the sequence number consumed by the
FIN when calling tcp_sequence(), restoring the previous behavior for
cases where only the FIN extends beyond the window.

phy_led_triggers_registers() does not require the RTNL, it does not

is also no requirement the PHY has been attached to a MAC, the
triggers only make use of phydev state. This allows the call to

net: usb: pegasus: enable basic endpoint checking
pegasus_probe() fills URBs with hardcoded endpoint pipes without
verifying the endpoint descriptors:
- usb_rcvbulkpipe(dev, 1) for RX data
- usb_sndbulkpipe(dev, 2) for TX data
- usb_rcvintpipe(dev, 3) for status interrupts
A malformed USB device can present these endpoints with transfer types
that differ from what the driver assumes.
Add a pegasus_usb_ep enum for endpoint numbers, replacing magic
constants throughout. Add usb_check_bulk_endpoints() and
usb_check_int_endpoints() calls before any resource allocation to
verify endpoint types before use, rejecting devices with mismatched
descriptors at probe time, and avoid triggering assertion.
skb_may_tx_timestamp() may acquire sock::sk_callback_lock. The lock must
not be taken in IRQ context, only softirq is okay. A few drivers receive
the timestamp via a dedicated interrupt and complete the TX timestamp
from that handler. This will lead to a deadlock if the lock is already
write-locked on the same CPU.
Taking the lock can be avoided. The socket (pointed by the skb) will
remain valid until the skb is released. The ->sk_socket and ->file
member will be set to NULL once the user closes the socket which may
happen before the timestamp arrives.
If we happen to observe the pointer while the socket is closing but
before the pointer is set to NULL then we may use it because both
pointer (and the file's cred member) are RCU freed.
Drop the lock. Use READ_ONCE() to obtain the individual pointer. Add a
matching WRITE_ONCE() where the pointer are cleared.

Since unregister_hdlc_device() stops data transmission and reception,

to place tasklet_kill() after these calls.
The bugs were identified through static analysis. To reproduce the issue

delays(e.g., mdelay()) were introduced within the tasklet handler to
increase the likelihood of triggering the race condition.
net/rds: fix recursive lock in rds_tcp_conn_slots_available
syzbot reported a recursive lock warning in rds_tcp_get_peer_sport() as
it calls inet6_getname() which acquires the socket lock that was already
held by __release_sock().

Reading from the socket struct directly is safe from possible paths. For
rds_tcp_accept_one(), the socket has just been accepted and is not yet
exposed to concurrent access. For rds_tcp_conn_slots_available(), direct
access avoids the recursive deadlock seen during backlog processing
where the socket lock is already held from the __release_sock().
However, rds_tcp_conn_slots_available() is also called from the normal
softirq path via tcp_data_ready() where the lock is not held. This is
also safe because inet_dport is a stable 16 bits field. A READ_ONCE()
annotation as the value might be accessed lockless in a concurrent
access context.
Note that it is also safe to call rds_tcp_conn_slots_available() from
rds_conn_shutdown() because the fan-out is disabled.

tipc: fix duplicate publication key in tipc_service_insert_publ()
TIPC uses named table to store TIPC services represented by type and
instance. Each time an application calls TIPC API bind() to bind a
type/instance to a socket, an entry is created and inserted into the
named table. It looks like this:
In the above table, each entry represents a route for sending data
from one socket to the other. For all publications originated from
the same node, the key is UNIQUE to identify each entry.
It is calculated by this formula:
key = socket portid + number of bindings + 1 (1)
where:
- socket portid: unique and calculated by using linux kernel function
get_random_u32_below(). So, the value is randomized.
- number of bindings: the number of times a type/instance pair is bound
to a socket. This number is linearly increased,
starting from 0.
While the socket portid is unique and randomized by linux kernel, the
linear increment of "number of bindings" in formula (1) makes "key" not
unique anymore. For example:
- Socket 1 is created with its associated port number 20062001. Type 1000,
instance 1 is bound to socket 1:
key1: 20062001 + 0 + 1 = 20062002
Then, bind() is called a second time on Socket 1 to by the same type 1000,
instance 1:
key2: 20062001 + 1 + 1 = 20062003
- Socket 2 is created with its associated port number 20062002. Type 1000,
instance 1 is bound to socket 2:
key3: 20062002 + 0 + 1 = 20062003
TIPC looks up the named table and finds out that key2 with the same value
already exists and rejects the insertion into the named table.
This leads to failure of bind() call from application on Socket 2 with error
message EINVAL "Invalid argument".
This commit fixes this issue by adding more port id checking to make sure
that the key is unique to publications originated from the same port id
and node.

kcm: fix zero-frag skb in frag_list on partial sendmsg error
Syzkaller reported a warning in kcm_write_msgs() when processing a
message with a zero-fragment skb in the frag_list.
When kcm_sendmsg() fills MAX_SKB_FRAGS fragments in the current skb,
it allocates a new skb (tskb) and links it into the frag_list before
copying data. If the copy subsequently fails (e.g. -EFAULT from
user memory), tskb remains in the frag_list with zero fragments:
head skb (msg being assembled, NOT yet in sk_write_queue)
+-----------+
| frags[17] | (MAX_SKB_FRAGS, all filled with data)
| frag_list-+--> tskb
+-----------+ +----------+
| frags[0] | (empty! copy failed before filling)
+----------+
For SOCK_SEQPACKET with partial data already copied, the error path
saves this message via partial_message for later completion. For
SOCK_SEQPACKET, sock_write_iter() automatically sets MSG_EOR, so a
subsequent zero-length write(fd, NULL, 0) completes the message and
queues it to sk_write_queue. kcm_write_msgs() then walks the
frag_list and hits:
WARN_ON(!skb_shinfo(skb)->nr_frags)
TCP has a similar pattern where skbs are enqueued before data copy
and cleaned up on failure via tcp_remove_empty_skb(). KCM was
missing the equivalent cleanup.
Fix this by tracking the predecessor skb (frag_prev) when allocating
a new frag_list entry. On error, if the tail skb has zero frags,
use frag_prev to unlink and free it in O(1) without walking the
singly-linked frag_list. frag_prev is safe to dereference because
the entire message chain is only held locally (or in kcm->seq_skb)
and is not added to sk_write_queue until MSG_EOR, so the send path
cannot free it underneath us.
Also change the WARN_ON to WARN_ON_ONCE to avoid flooding the log
if the condition is somehow hit repeatedly.
There are currently no KCM selftests in the kernel tree; a simple
reproducer is available at [1].

wifi: libertas: fix use-after-free in lbs_free_adapter()
The lbs_free_adapter() function uses timer_delete() (non-synchronous)
for both command_timer and tx_lockup_timer before the structure is
freed. This is incorrect because timer_delete() does not wait for
any running timer callback to complete.
If a timer callback is executing when lbs_free_adapter() is called,
the callback will access freed memory since lbs_cfg_free() frees the
containing structure immediately after lbs_free_adapter() returns.
Both timer callbacks (lbs_cmd_timeout_handler and lbs_tx_lockup_handler)
access priv->driver_lock, priv->cur_cmd, priv->dev, and other fields,
which would all be use-after-free violations.
Use timer_delete_sync() instead to ensure any running timer callback
has completed before returning.
This bug was introduced in commit 8f641d93c38a ("libertas: detect TX
lockups and reset hardware") where del_timer() was used instead of
del_timer_sync() in the cleanup path. The command_timer has had the
same issue since the driver was first written.

ovpn: tcp - fix packet extraction from stream
When processing TCP stream data in ovpn_tcp_recv, we receive large
cloned skbs from __strp_rcv that may contain multiple coalesced packets.
The current implementation has two bugs:
1. Header offset overflow: Using pskb_pull with large offsets on
coalesced skbs causes skb->data - skb->head to exceed the u16 storage
of skb->network_header. This causes skb_reset_network_header to fail
on the inner decapsulated packet, resulting in packet drops.
2. Unaligned protocol headers: Extracting packets from arbitrary
positions within the coalesced TCP stream provides no alignment
guarantees for the packet data causing performance penalties on
architectures without efficient unaligned access. Additionally,
openvpn's 2-byte length prefix on TCP packets causes the subsequent
4-byte opcode and packet ID fields to be inherently misaligned.
Fix both issues by allocating a new skb for each openvpn packet and
using skb_copy_bits to extract only the packet content into the new
buffer, skipping the 2-byte length prefix. Also, check the length before
invoking the function that performs the allocation to avoid creating an
invalid skb.
If the packet has to be forwarded to userspace the 2-byte prefix can be
pushed to the head safely, without misalignment.
As a side effect, this approach also avoids the expensive linearization
that pskb_pull triggers on cloned skbs with page fragments. In testing,
this resulted in TCP throughput improvements of up to 74%.

bnxt_en: Fix RSS context delete logic
We need to free the corresponding RSS context VNIC
in FW everytime an RSS context is deleted in driver.
Commit 667ac333dbb7 added a check to delete the VNIC
in FW only when netif_running() is true to help delete
RSS contexts with interface down.
Having that condition will make the driver leak VNICs
in FW whenever close() happens with active RSS contexts.
On the subsequent open(), as part of RSS context restoration,
we will end up trying to create extra VNICs for which we
did not make any reservation. FW can fail this request,
thereby making us lose active RSS contexts.
Suppose an RSS context is deleted already and we try to
process a delete request again, then the HWRM functions
will check for validity of the request and they simply
return if the resource is already freed. So, even for
delete-when-down cases, netif_running() check is not
necessary.

When a port offloads a bridge, the switch must be reset to change
the VLAN awareness state (the SJA1105_VLAN_FILTERING reason for
sja1105_static_config_reload()). When the port leaves a VLAN-aware
bridge, it must also be reset for the same reason: it is returning
to operation as a VLAN-unaware standalone port.
sja1105_static_config_reload() triggers the phylink link replay helpers.
Because sja1105 is a switch, it has multiple user ports. During unbind,
ports are torn down one by one in dsa_switch_teardown_ports() ->
dsa_port_teardown() -> dsa_user_destroy().
The crash happens when the first user port is not part of the VLAN-aware
bridge, but any other user port is.
Tearing down the first user port causes phylink_destroy() to be called
on dp->pl, and this pointer to be set to NULL. Then, when the second
user port is torn down, this was offloading a VLAN-aware bridge port, so
indirectly it will trigger sja1105_static_config_reload().
The latter function iterates using dsa_switch_for_each_available_port(),
and unconditionally dereferences dp->pl, including for the
aforementioned torn down previous port, and passes that to phylink.
This is where the NULL pointer is coming from.
There are multiple levels at which this could be avoided:
- add an "if (dp->pl)" in sja1105_static_config_reload()
- make the phylink replay helpers NULL-tolerant
- mark ports as DSA_PORT_TYPE_UNUSED after dsa_port_phylink_destroy()
has run, such that subsequent dsa_switch_for_each_available_port()
iterations skip them
- disconnect the entire switch at once from switchdev and
NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER events while unbinding, not just port by port,
likely using a "ds->unbinding = true" mechanism or similar
however options 3 and 4 are quite heavy and might have side effects.
Although 2 allows to keep the driver simpler, the phylink API it not
NULL-tolerant in general and is not responsible for the NULL pointer
(this is something done by dsa_port_phylink_destroy()). So I went
with 1.
Functionally speaking, skipping the replay helpers for ports without
a phylink instance is fine, because that only happens during driver
removal (an operation which cannot be cancelled). The ports are not
required to work (although they probably still will - untested
assumption - as long as we don't overwrite the last port speed with
SJA1105_SPEED_AUTO).

This is problematic because this field can change over the

Problem is that some NIC might (ab)use the PSP UDP source port in their
RSS computation, and PSP packets for a given flow could jump

In order to avoid surprises, it is safer to let Protective Load

net/mlx5e: Fix deadlocks between devlink and netdev instance locks
In the mentioned "Fixes" commit, various work tasks triggering devlink
health reporter recovery were switched to use netdev_trylock to protect
against concurrent tear down of the channels being recovered. But this
had the side effect of introducing potential deadlocks because of
incorrect lock ordering.
The correct lock order is described by the init flow:
probe_one -> mlx5_init_one (acquires devlink lock)
-> mlx5_init_one_devl_locked -> mlx5_register_device
-> mlx5_rescan_drivers_locked -...-> mlx5e_probe -> _mlx5e_probe
-> register_netdev (acquires rtnl lock)
-> register_netdevice (acquires netdev lock)
=> devlink lock -> rtnl lock -> netdev lock.
But in the current recovery flow, the order is wrong:
mlx5e_tx_err_cqe_work (acquires netdev lock)
-> mlx5e_reporter_tx_err_cqe -> mlx5e_health_report
-> devlink_health_report (acquires devlink lock => boom!)
-> devlink_health_reporter_recover
-> mlx5e_tx_reporter_recover -> mlx5e_tx_reporter_recover_from_ctx
-> mlx5e_tx_reporter_err_cqe_recover
The same pattern exists in:
mlx5e_reporter_rx_timeout
mlx5e_reporter_tx_ptpsq_unhealthy
mlx5e_reporter_tx_timeout
Fix these by moving the netdev_trylock calls from the work handlers
lower in the call stack, in the respective recovery functions, where
they are actually necessary.

bonding: alb: fix UAF in rlb_arp_recv during bond up/down
The ALB RX path may access rx_hashtbl concurrently with bond
teardown. During rapid bond up/down cycles, rlb_deinitialize()
frees rx_hashtbl while RX handlers are still running, leading
to a null pointer dereference detected by KASAN.
However, the root cause is that rlb_arp_recv() can still be accessed
after setting recv_probe to NULL, which is actually a use-after-free
(UAF) issue. That is the reason for using the referenced commit in the
Fixes tag.
The issue is reproducible by repeatedly running
ip link set bond0 up/down while receiving ARP messages, where
rlb_arp_recv() can race with rlb_deinitialize() and dereference
a freed rx_hashtbl entry.
Fix this by setting recv_probe to NULL and then calling
synchronize_net() to wait for any concurrent RX processing to finish.
This ensures that no RX handler can access rx_hashtbl after it is freed
in bond_alb_deinitialize().

net/rds: Fix NULL pointer dereference in rds_tcp_accept_one
Save a local pointer to new_sock->sk and hold a reference before
installing callbacks in rds_tcp_accept_one. After
rds_tcp_set_callbacks() or rds_tcp_reset_callbacks(), tc->t_sock is
set to new_sock which may race with the shutdown path. A concurrent
rds_tcp_conn_path_shutdown() may call sock_release(), which sets
new_sock->sk = NULL and may eventually free sk when the refcount
reaches zero.
Subsequent accesses to new_sock->sk->sk_state would dereference NULL,
causing the crash. The fix saves a local sk pointer before callbacks
are installed so that sk_state can be accessed safely even after
new_sock->sk is nulled, and uses sock_hold()/sock_put() to ensure
sk itself remains valid for the duration.

net/mlx5e: XSK, Fix unintended ICOSQ change
XSK wakeup must use the async ICOSQ (with proper locking), as it is not
guaranteed to run on the same CPU as the channel.
The commit that converted the NAPI trigger path to use the sync ICOSQ
incorrectly applied the same change to XSK, causing XSK wakeups to use
the sync ICOSQ as well. Revert XSK flows to use the async ICOSQ.
XDP program attach/detach triggers channel reopen, while XSK pool
enable/disable can happen on-the-fly via NDOs without reopening
channels. As a result, xsk_pool state cannot be reliably used at
mlx5e_open_channel() time to decide whether an async ICOSQ is needed.
Update the async_icosq_needed logic to depend on the presence of an XDP
program rather than the xsk_pool, ensuring the async ICOSQ is available
when XSK wakeups are enabled.
This fixes multiple issues:
1. Illegal synchronize_rcu() in an RCU read- side critical section via
mlx5e_xsk_wakeup() -> mlx5e_trigger_napi_icosq() ->
synchronize_net(). The stack holds RCU read-lock in xsk_poll().
2. Hitting a NULL pointer dereference in mlx5e_xsk_wakeup():
