I converted br_mst_set_state to RCU to avoid a vlan use-after-free but forgot to change the vlan group dereference helper. Switch to vlan group RCU deref helper to fix the suspicious rcu usage warning.

[ Upstream commit 36c92936e868601fa1f43da6758cf55805043509 ]
Pass the already obtained vlan group pointer to br_mst_vlan_set_state() instead of dereferencing it again. Each caller has already correctly dereferenced it for their context. This change is required for the following suspicious RCU dereference fix. No functional changes intended.

[ Upstream commit 3a7c1661ae1383364cd6092d851f5e5da64d476b ]
syzbot reported a suspicious rcu usage[1] in bridge's mst code. While fixing it I noticed that nothing prevents a vlan to be freed while walking the list from the same path (br forward delay timer). Fix the rcu usage and also make sure we are not accessing freed memory by making br_mst_vlan_set_state use rcu read lock.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "The sprinkling of SPI drivers is because we added a new one
Merge tag 'net-next-5.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "The sprinkling of SPI drivers is because we added a new one and Mark sent us a SPI driver interface conversion pull request.
Core ----
- Introduce XDP multi-buffer support, allowing the use of XDP with jumbo frame MTUs and combination with Rx coalescing offloads (LRO).
- Speed up netns dismantling (5x) and lower the memory cost a little. Remove unnecessary per-netns sockets. Scope some lists to a netns. Cut down RCU syncing. Use batch methods. Allow netdev registration to complete out of order.
- Support distinguishing timestamp types (ingress vs egress) and maintaining them across packet scrubbing points (e.g. redirect).
- Continue the work of annotating packet drop reasons throughout the stack.
- Switch netdev error counters from an atomic to dynamically allocated per-CPU counters.
- Rework a few preempt_disable(), local_irq_save() and busy waiting sections problematic on PREEMPT_RT.
- Extend the ref_tracker to allow catching use-after-free bugs.
BPF ---
- Introduce "packing allocator" for BPF JIT images. JITed code is marked read only, and used to be allocated at page granularity. Custom allocator allows for more efficient memory use, lower iTLB pressure and prevents identity mapping huge pages from getting split.
- Make use of BTF type annotations (e.g. __user, __percpu) to enforce the correct probe read access method, add appropriate helpers.
- Convert the BPF preload to use light skeleton and drop the user-mode-driver dependency.
- Allow XDP BPF_PROG_RUN test infra to send real packets, enabling its use as a packet generator.
- Allow local storage memory to be allocated with GFP_KERNEL if called from a hook allowed to sleep.
- Introduce fprobe (multi kprobe) to speed up mass attachment (arch bits to come later).
- Add unstable conntrack lookup helpers for BPF by using the BPF kfunc infra.
- Allow cgroup BPF progs to return custom errors to user space.
- Add support for AF_UNIX iterator batching.
- Allow iterator programs to use sleepable helpers.
- Support JIT of add, and, or, xor and xchg atomic ops on arm64.
- Add BTFGen support to bpftool which allows to use CO-RE in kernels without BTF info.
- Large number of libbpf API improvements, cleanups and deprecations.
Protocols ---------
- Micro-optimize UDPv6 Tx, gaining up to 5% in test on dummy netdev.
- Adjust TSO packet sizes based on min_rtt, allowing very low latency links (data centers) to always send full-sized TSO super-frames.
- Make IPv6 flow label changes (AKA hash rethink) more configurable, via sysctl and setsockopt. Distinguish between server and client behavior.
- VxLAN support to "collect metadata" devices to terminate only configured VNIs. This is similar to VLAN filtering in the bridge.
- Support inserting IPv6 IOAM information to a fraction of frames.
- Add protocol attribute to IP addresses to allow identifying where given address comes from (kernel-generated, DHCP etc.)
- Support setting socket and IPv6 options via cmsg on ping6 sockets.
- Reject mis-use of ECN bits in IP headers as part of DSCP/TOS. Define dscp_t and stop taking ECN bits into account in fib-rules.
- Add support for locked bridge ports (for 802.1X).
- tun: support NAPI for packets received from batched XDP buffs, doubling the performance in some scenarios.
- IPv6 extension header handling in Open vSwitch.
- Support IPv6 control message load balancing in bonding, prevent neighbor solicitation and advertisement from using the wrong port. Support NS/NA monitor selection similar to existing ARP monitor.
- SMC - improve performance with TCP_CORK and sendfile() - support auto-corking - support TCP_NODELAY
- MCTP (Management Component Transport Protocol) - add user space tag control interface - I2C binding driver (as specified by DMTF DSP0237)
- Multi-BSSID beacon handling in AP mode for WiFi.
- Bluetooth: - handle MSFT Monitor Device Event - add MGMT Adv Monitor Device Found/Lost events
- Multi-Path TCP: - add support for the SO_SNDTIMEO socket option - lots of selftest cleanups and improvements
- Increase the max PDU size in CAN ISOTP to 64 kB.
Driver API ----------
- Add HW counters for SW netdevs, a mechanism for devices which offload packet forwarding to report packet statistics back to software interfaces such as tunnels.
- Select the default NIC queue count as a fraction of number of physical CPU cores, instead of hard-coding to 8.
- Expose devlink instance locks to drivers. Allow device layer of drivers to use that lock directly instead of creating their own which always runs into ordering issues in devlink callbacks.
- Add header/data split indication to guide user space enabling of TCP zero-copy Rx.
- Allow configuring completion queue event size.
- Refactor page_pool to enable fragmenting after allocation.
- Add allocation and page reuse statistics to page_pool.
- Improve Multiple Spanning Trees support in the bridge to allow reuse of topologies across VLANs, saving HW resources in switches.
- DSA (Distributed Switch Architecture): - replay and offload of host VLAN entries - offload of static and local FDB entries on LAG interfaces - FDB isolation and unicast filtering

Tobias Waldekranz says:
==================== net: bridge: Multiple Spanning Trees
The bridge has had per-VLAN STP support for a while now, since:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20200124114022.10883-1-nikolay@cumulusnetworks.com/
The current implementation has some problems:
- The mapping from VLAN to STP state is fixed as 1:1, i.e. each VLAN is managed independently. This is awkward from an MSTP (802.1Q-2018, Clause 13.5) point of view, where the model is that multiple VLANs are grouped into MST instances.
Because of the way that the standard is written, presumably, this is also reflected in hardware implementations. It is not uncommon for a switch to support the full 4k range of VIDs, but that the pool of MST instances is much smaller. Some examples:
Marvell LinkStreet (mv88e6xxx): 4k VLANs, but only 64 MSTIs Marvell Prestera: 4k VLANs, but only 128 MSTIs Microchip SparX-5i: 4k VLANs, but only 128 MSTIs
- By default, the feature is enabled, and there is no way to disable it. This makes it hard to add offloading in a backwards compatible way, since any underlying switchdevs have no way to refuse the function if the hardware does not support it
- The port-global STP state has precedence over per-VLAN states. In MSTP, as far as I understand it, all VLANs will use the common spanning tree (CST) by default - through traffic engineering you can then optimize your network to group subsets of VLANs to use different trees (MSTI). To my understanding, the way this is typically managed in silicon is roughly:
Incoming packet: .----.----.--------------.----.------------- | DA | SA | 802.1Q VID=X | ET | Payload ... '----'----'--------------'----'------------- | '->|\ .----------------------------. | +--> | VID | Members | ... | MSTI | PVID -->|/ |-----|---------|-----|------| | 1 | 0001001 | ... | 0 | | 2 | 0001010 | ... | 10 | | 3 | 0001100 | ... | 10 | '----------------------------' | .-----------------------------' | .------------------------. '->| MSTI | Fwding | Lrning | |------|--------|--------| | 0 | 111110 | 111110 | | 10 | 110111 | 110111 | '------------------------'
What this is trying to show is that the STP state (whether MSTP is used, or ye olde STP) is always accessed via the VLAN table. If STP is running, all MSTI pointers in that table will reference the same index in the STP stable - if MSTP is running, some VLANs may point to other trees (like in this example).
The fact that in the Linux bridge, the global state (think: index 0 in most hardware implementations) is supposed to override the per-VLAN state, is very awkward to offload. In effect, this means that when the global state changes to blocking, drivers will have to iterate over all MSTIs in use, and alter them all to match. This also means that you have to cache whether the hardware state is currently tracking the global state or the per-VLAN state. In the first case, you also have to cache the per-VLAN state so that you can restore it if the global state transitions back to forwarding.
This series adds a new mst_enable bridge setting (as suggested by Nik) that can only be changed when no VLANs are configured on the bridge. Enabling this mode has the following effect:
- The port-global STP state is used to represent the CST (Common Spanning Tree) (1/15)
- Ingress STP filtering is deferred until the frame's VLAN has been resolved (1/15)
- The preexisting per-VLAN states can no longer be controlled directly (1/15). They are instead placed under the MST module's control, which is managed using a new netlink interface (described in 3/15)
- VLANs can br mapped to MSTIs in an arbitrary M:N fashion, using a new global VLAN option (2/15)
Switchdev notifications are added so that a driver can track: - MST enabled state - VID to MSTI mappings - MST port states
An offloading implementation is this provided for mv88e6xxx. ====================

net: bridge: mst: Add helper to query a port's MST state
This is useful for switchdev drivers who are offloading MST states into hardware. As an example, a driver may wish to flush the FDB for a port when it transitions from forwarding to blocking - which means that the previous state must be discoverable.

net: bridge: mst: Add helper to map an MSTI to a VID set
br_mst_get_info answers the question: "On this bridge, which VIDs are mapped to the given MSTI?"
This is useful in switchdev drivers, which might have to fan-out operations, relating to an MSTI, per VLAN.
An example: When a port's MST state changes from forwarding to blocking, a driver may choose to flush the dynamic FDB entries on that port to get faster reconvergence of the network, but this should only be done in the VLANs that are managed by the MSTI in question.

net: bridge: mst: Support setting and reporting MST port states
Make it possible to change the port state in a given MSTI by extending the bridge port netlink interface (RTM_SETLINK on PF_BRIDGE).The proposed iproute2 interface would be:
bridge mst set dev <PORT> msti <MSTI> state <STATE>
Current states in all applicable MSTIs can also be dumped via a corresponding RTM_GETLINK. The proposed iproute interface looks like this:
$ bridge mst port msti vb1 0 state forwarding 100 state disabled vb2 0 state forwarding 100 state forwarding
The preexisting per-VLAN states are still valid in the MST mode (although they are read-only), and can be queried as usual if one is interested in knowing a particular VLAN's state without having to care about the VID to MSTI mapping (in this example VLAN 20 and 30 are bound to MSTI 100):
$ bridge -d vlan port vlan-id vb1 10 state forwarding mcast_router 1 20 state disabled mcast_router 1 30 state disabled mcast_router 1 40 state forwarding mcast_router 1 vb2 10 state forwarding mcast_router 1 20 state forwarding mcast_router 1 30 state forwarding mcast_router 1 40 state forwarding mcast_router 1
