net/ipv6: delete temporary address if mngtmpaddr is removed or unmanaged

net/ipv6: delete temporary address if mngtmpaddr is removed or unmanaged

[ Upstream commit 00b5b7aab9e422d00d5a9d03d7e0760a76b5d57f ]

RFC8981 section 3.4 says that existing temporary addresses must have their
lifetimes adjusted so that no temporary addresses should ever remain "valid"
or "preferred" longer than the incoming SLAAC Prefix Information. This would
strongly imply in Linux's case that if the "mngtmpaddr" address is deleted or
un-flagged as such, its corresponding temporary addresses must be cleared out
right away.

But now the temporary address is renewed even after ‘mngtmpaddr’ is removed
or becomes unmanaged as manage_tempaddrs() set temporary addresses
prefered/valid time to 0, and later in addrconf_verify_rtnl() all checkings
failed to remove the addresses. Fix this by deleting the temporary address
directly for these situations.

ipv6: fix race condition between ipv6_get_ifaddr and ipv6_del_addr

ipv6: fix race condition between ipv6_get_ifaddr and ipv6_del_addr

[ Upstream commit 7633c4da919ad51164acbf1aa322cc1a3ead6129 ]

Although ipv6_get_ifaddr walks inet6_addr_lst under the RCU lock, it
still means hlist_for_each_entry_rcu can return an item that got removed
from the list. The memory itself of such item is not freed thanks to RCU
but nothing guarantees the actual content of the memory is sane.

In particular, the reference count can be zero. This can happen if
ipv6_del_addr is called in parallel. ipv6_del_addr removes the entry
from inet6_addr_lst (hlist_del_init_rcu(&ifp->addr_lst)) and drops all
references (__in6_ifa_put(ifp) + in6_ifa_put(ifp)). With bad enough
timing, this can happen:

1. In ipv6_get_ifaddr, hlist_for_each_entry_rcu returns an entry.

2. Then, the whole ipv6_del_addr is executed for the given entry. The
reference count drops to zero and kfree_rcu is scheduled.

3. ipv6_get_ifaddr continues and tries to increments the reference count
(in6_ifa_hold).

4. The rcu is unlocked and the entry is freed.

5. The freed entry is returned.

Prevent increasing of the reference count in such case. The name
in6_ifa_hold_safe is chosen to mimic the existing fib6_info_hold_safe.

net: ipv6: support reporting otherwise unknown prefix flags in RTM_NEWPREFIX

[ Upstream commit bd4a816752bab609dd6d65ae021387beb9e2ddbd ]

Lorenzo points out that we effectively clear all unknown
flags from PIO when copying them to userspace in the netlink
RTM_NEWPREFIX notification.

We could fix this one at a time as new flags are defined,
or in one fell swoop - I choose the latter.

We could either define 6 new reserved flags (reserved1..6) and handle
them individually (and rename them as new flags are defined), or we
could simply copy the entire unmodified byte over - I choose the latter.

This unfortunately requires some anonymous union/struct magic,
so we add a static assert on the struct size for a little extra safety.

net: ipv6/addrconf: avoid integer underflow in ipv6_create_tempaddr

The existing code incorrectly casted a negative value (the result of a
subtraction) to an unsigned value without checking. For example, if
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/*/temp_prefered_lft was set to 1, the preferred
lifetime would jump to 4 billion seconds. On my machine and network the
shortest lifetime that avoided underflow was 3 seconds.

Merge tag 'sysctl-6.6-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux

Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain:
"Long ago we set out to remove the kitchen sink on kernel/sysctl.c
arrays and placings sysctls to their own sybsystem or file to help
avoid merge conflicts. Matthew Wilcox pointed out though that if we're
going to do that we might as well also *save* space while at it and
try to remove the extra last sysctl entry added at the end of each
array, a sentintel, instead of bloating the kernel by adding a new
sentinel with each array moved.

Doing that was not so trivial, and has required slowing down the moves
of kernel/sysctl.c arrays and measuring the impact on size by each new
move.

The complex part of the effort to help reduce the size of each sysctl
is being done by the patient work of el señor Don Joel Granados. A lot
of this is truly painful code refactoring and testing and then trying
to measure the savings of each move and removing the sentinels.
Although Joel already has code which does most of this work,
experience with sysctl moves in the past shows is we need to be
careful due to the slew of odd build failures that are possible due to
the amount of random Kconfig options sysctls use.

To that end Joel's work is split by first addressing the major
housekeeping needed to remove the sentinels, which is part of this
merge request. The rest of the work to actually remove the sentinels
will be done later in future kernel releases.

The preliminary math is showing this will all help reduce the overall
build time size of the kernel and run time memory consumed by the
kernel by about ~64 bytes per array where we are able to remove each
sentinel in the future. That also means there is no more bloating the
kernel with the extra ~64 bytes per array moved as no new sentinels
are created"

common information already populated in struct genl_info

Pull filesystem freezing updates from Darrick Wong:

New code for 6.6:

* Allow the kernel to initiate a freeze of a filesystem. The kernel
and userspace can both hold a freeze on a filesystem at the same
time; the freeze is not lifted until /both/ holders lift it. This
will enable us to fix a longstanding bug in XFS online fsck.
