Issue description and patch:
IPSTATS_MIB_OUTPKTS("OutRequests") is counted with IPSTATS_MIB_OUTOCTETS
("OutOctets") in ip_finish_output2().
According to RFC 4293, it is "OutOctets" counted with "OutTransmits" but
not "OutRequests". "OutRequests" does not include any datagrams counted
in "ForwDatagrams".
ipSystemStatsOutOctets OBJECT-TYPE
DESCRIPTION
"The total number of octets in IP datagrams delivered to the
lower layers for transmission. Octets from datagrams
counted in ipIfStatsOutTransmits MUST be counted here.
ipSystemStatsOutRequests OBJECT-TYPE
DESCRIPTION
"The total number of IP datagrams that local IP user-
protocols (including ICMP) supplied to IP in requests for
transmission. Note that this counter does not include any
datagrams counted in ipSystemStatsOutForwDatagrams.
So do patch to define IPSTATS_MIB_OUTPKTS to "OutTransmits" and add
IPSTATS_MIB_OUTREQUESTS for "OutRequests".
Add IPSTATS_MIB_OUTREQUESTS counter in __ip_local_out() for ipv4 and add
IPSTATS_MIB_OUT counter in ip6_finish_output2() for ipv6.

ipv6: adjust ndisc_is_useropt() to also return true for PIO

The upcoming (and nearly finalized):
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-collink-6man-pio-pflag/
will update the IPv6 RA to include a new flag in the PIO field,
which will serve as a hint to perform DHCPv6-PD.

As we don't want DHCPv6 related logic inside the kernel, this piece of
information needs to be exposed to userspace. The simplest option is to
simply expose the entire PIO through the already existing mechanism.

Even without this new flag, the already existing PIO R (router address)
flag (from RFC6275) cannot AFAICT be handled entirely in kernel,
and provides useful information that should be exposed to userspace
(the router's global address, for use by Mobile IPv6).

Also cc'ing stable@ for inclusion in LTS, as while technically this is
not quite a bugfix, and instead more of a feature, it is absolutely
trivial and the alternative is manually cherrypicking into all Android
Common Kernel trees - and I know Greg will ask for it to be sent in via
LTS instead...

net: change accept_ra_min_rtr_lft to affect all RA lifetimes

accept_ra_min_rtr_lft only considered the lifetime of the default route
and discarded entire RAs accordingly.

This change renames accept_ra_min_rtr_lft to accept_ra_min_lft, and
applies the value to individual RA sections; in particular, router
lifetime, PIO preferred lifetime, and RIO lifetime. If any of those
lifetimes are lower than the configured value, the specific RA section
is ignored.

In order for the sysctl to be useful to Android, it should really apply
to all lifetimes in the RA, since that is what determines the minimum
frequency at which RAs must be processed by the kernel. Android uses
hardware offloads to drop RAs for a fraction of the minimum of all
lifetimes present in the RA (some networks have very frequent RAs (5s)
with high lifetimes (2h)). Despite this, we have encountered networks
that set the router lifetime to 30s which results in very frequent CPU
wakeups. Instead of disabling IPv6 (and dropping IPv6 ethertype in the
WiFi firmware) entirely on such networks, it seems better to ignore the
misconfigured routers while still processing RAs from other IPv6 routers
on the same network (i.e. to support IoT applications).

The previous implementation dropped the entire RA based on router
lifetime. This turned out to be hard to expand to the other lifetimes
present in the RA in a consistent manner; dropping the entire RA based
on RIO/PIO lifetimes would essentially require parsing the whole thing
twice.

This is useful for mobile devices, whose battery life can be impacted
by networks that configure RAs with a short lifetime. On such networks,
the device should never gain IPv6 provisioning and should attempt to
drop RAs via hardware offload, if available.

net: fix potential refcount leak in ndisc_router_discovery()

The issue happens on specific paths in the function. After both the
object `rt` and `neigh` are grabbed successfully, when `lifetime` is
nonzero but the metric needs change, the function just deletes the
route and set `rt` to NULL. Then, it may try grabbing `rt` and `neigh`
again if above conditions hold. The function simply overwrite `neigh`
if succeeds or returns if fails, without decreasing the reference
count of previous `neigh`. This may result in memory leaks.

Fix it by decrementing the reference count of `neigh` in place.

RFC 9131 changes default behaviour of handling RX of NA messages when the

implementation is limited to accept just unsolicited NAs. However, the
RFC is more generic where it also accepts solicited NAs. Both types
should result in adding a STALE entry for this case.

be compliant with the RFC and rename the sysctl knob to

net/ipv6: Introduce accept_unsolicited_na knob to implement router-side changes for RFC9131

Add a new neighbour cache entry in STALE state for routers on receiving
an unsolicited (gratuitous) neighbour advertisement with
target link-layer-address option specified.
This is similar to the arp_accept configuration for IPv4.
A new sysctl endpoint is created to turn on this behaviour:
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/interface/accept_unsolicited_na.

ipv6: separate ndisc_ns_create() from ndisc_send_ns()

This patch separate NS message allocation steps from ndisc_send_ns(),
so it could be used in other places, like bonding, to allocate and
send IPv6 NS message.

Also export ndisc_send_skb() and ndisc_ns_create() for later bonding usage.

Generate netlink notification when default IPv6 route preference changes

Generate RTM_NEWROUTE netlink notification when the route preference
changes on an existing kernel generated default route in response to
RA messages. Currently netlink notifications are generated only when
this route is added or deleted but not when the route preference
changes, which can cause userspace routing application state to go
out of sync with kernel.

net: ndisc: introduce ndisc_evict_nocarrier sysctl parameter

In most situations the neighbor discovery cache should be cleared on a
NOCARRIER event which is currently done unconditionally. But for wireless
roams the neighbor discovery cache can and should remain intact since
the underlying network has not changed.

This patch introduces a sysctl option ndisc_evict_nocarrier which can
be disabled by a wireless supplicant during a roam. This allows packets
to be sent after a roam immediately without having to wait for
neighbor discovery.

A user reported roughly a 1 second delay after a roam before packets
could be sent out (note, on IPv4). This delay was due to the ARP
cache being cleared. During testing of this same scenario using IPv6
no delay was noticed, but regardless there is no reason to clear
the ndisc cache for wireless roams.

net: fix potential refcount leak in ndisc_router_discovery()

commit 7396ba87f1edf549284869451665c7c4e74ecd4f upstream.

The issue happens on specific paths in the function. After both the
object `rt` and `neigh` are grabbed successfully, when `lifetime` is
nonzero but the metric needs change, the function just deletes the
route and set `rt` to NULL. Then, it may try grabbing `rt` and `neigh`
again if above conditions hold. The function simply overwrite `neigh`
if succeeds or returns if fails, without decreasing the reference
count of previous `neigh`. This may result in memory leaks.

Fix it by decrementing the reference count of `neigh` in place.
