ipv6: Fix soft lockups in fib6_select_path under high next hop churn

ipv6: Fix soft lockups in fib6_select_path under high next hop churn

commit d9ccb18f83ea2bb654289b6ecf014fd267cc988b upstream.

Soft lockups have been observed on a cluster of Linux-based edge routers
located in a highly dynamic environment. Using the `bird` service, these
routers continuously update BGP-advertised routes due to frequently
changing nexthop destinations, while also managing significant IPv6
traffic. The lockups occur during the traversal of the multipath
circular linked-list in the `fib6_select_path` function, particularly
while iterating through the siblings in the list. The issue typically
arises when the nodes of the linked list are unexpectedly deleted
concurrently on a different core—indicated by their 'next' and
'previous' elements pointing back to the node itself and their reference
count dropping to zero. This results in an infinite loop, leading to a
soft lockup that triggers a system panic via the watchdog timer.

Apply RCU primitives in the problematic code sections to resolve the
issue. Where necessary, update the references to fib6_siblings to
annotate or use the RCU APIs.

Include a test script that reproduces the issue. The script
periodically updates the routing table while generating a heavy load
of outgoing IPv6 traffic through multiple iperf3 clients. It
consistently induces infinite soft lockups within a couple of minutes.

net/ipv6: release expired exception dst cached in socket

[ Upstream commit 3301ab7d5aeb0fe270f73a3d4810c9d1b6a9f045 ]

Dst objects get leaked in ip6_negative_advice() when this function is
executed

net/ipv6: release expired exception dst cached in socket

[ Upstream commit 3301ab7d5aeb0fe270f73a3d4810c9d1b6a9f045 ]

Dst objects get leaked in ip6_negative_advice() when this function is
executed for an expired IPv6 route located in the exception table. There
are several conditions that must be fulfilled for the leak to occur:
* an ICMPv6 packet indicating a change of the MTU for the path is received,
resulting in an exception dst being created
* a TCP connection that uses the exception dst for routing packets must
start timing out so that TCP begins retransmissions
* after the exception dst expires, the FIB6 garbage collector must not run
before TCP executes ip6_negative_advice() for the expired exception dst

When TCP executes ip6_negative_advice() for an exception dst that has
expired and if no other socket holds a reference to the exception dst, the
refcount of the exception dst is 2, which corresponds to the increment
made by dst_init() and the increment made by the TCP socket for which the
connection is timing out. The refcount made by the socket is never
released. The refcount of the dst is decremented in sk_dst_reset() but
that decrement is counteracted by a dst_hold() intentionally placed just
before the sk_dst_reset() in ip6_negative_advice(). After
ip6_negative_advice() has finished, there is no other object tied to the
dst. The socket lost its reference stored in sk_dst_cache and the dst is
no longer in the exception table. The exception dst becomes a leaked
object.

As a result of this dst leak, an unbalanced refcount is reported for the
loopback device of a net namespace being destroyed under kernels that do
not contain e5f80fcf869a ("ipv6: give an IPv6 dev to blackhole_netdev"):
unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 2

Fix the dst leak by removing the dst_hold() in ip6_negative_advice(). The
patch that introduced the dst_hold() in ip6_negative_advice() was
92f1655aa2b22 ("net: fix __dst_negative_advice() race"). But 92f1655aa2b22
merely refactored the code with regards to the dst refcount so the issue
was present even before 92f1655aa2b22. The bug was introduced in
54c1a859efd9f ("ipv6: Don't drop cache route entry unless timer actually
expired.") where the expired cached route is deleted and the sk_dst_cache
member of the socket is set to NULL by calling dst_negative_advice() but
the refcount belonging to the socket is left unbalanced.

The IPv4 version - ipv4_negative_advice() - is not affected by this bug.
When the TCP connection times out ipv4_negative_advice() merely resets the
sk_dst_cache of the socket while decrementing the refcount of the
exception dst.

Fixes: 92f1655aa2b22 ("net: fix __dst_negative_advice() race")
Fixes: 54c1a859efd9f ("ipv6: Don't drop cache route entry unless timer actually expired.")

While the first suspect is the dst_cache, explicitly tracking the dst
owing the last device reference via probes proved such dst is held by
the nexthop in the originating fib6_info.

Similar to commit f5b51fe804ec ("ipv6: route: purge exception on

disconnecting a to-be-removed device from a live ipv6 dst: move the
fib6_info cleanup into ip6_dst_ifdown().

Tested running:

./pmtu.sh cleanup_ipv6_exception

in a tight loop for more than 400 iterations with no spat, running an
unpatched kernel I observed a splat every ~10 iterations.

When I was doing some experiments, I found that when using the first

pointer crash. Then I digged into this part, realizing that we can remove
this one due to its uselessness.

ipv6: fix source address selection with route leak

commit 252442f2ae317d109ef0b4b39ce0608c09563042 upstream.

By default, an address assigned to the output interface is selected when
the source address is not specified. This is problematic when a route,
configured in a vrf, uses an interface from another vrf (aka route leak).
The original vrf does not own the selected source address.

Let's add a check against the output interface and call the appropriate
function to select the source address.

net/ipv6: Fix the RT cache flush via sysctl using a previous delay

[ Upstream commit 14a20e5b4ad998793c5f43b0330d9e1388446cf3 ]

The net.ipv6.route.flush system parameter takes a value which specifies
a delay used during the flush operation for aging exception routes. The
written value is however not used in the currently requested flush and
instead utilized only in the next one.

A problem is that ipv6_sysctl_rtcache_flush() first reads the old value
of net->ipv6.sysctl.flush_delay into a local delay variable and then
calls proc_dointvec() which actually updates the sysctl based on the
provided input.

Fix the problem by switching the order of the two operations.

ipv6: fix possible race in __fib6_drop_pcpu_from()

[ Upstream commit b01e1c030770ff3b4fe37fc7cc6bca03f594133f ]

syzbot found a race in __fib6_drop_pcpu_from() [1]

If compiler reads more than once (*ppcpu_rt),
second read could read NULL, if another cpu clears
the value in rt6_get_pcpu_route().

Add a READ_ONCE() to prevent this race.

Also add rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() because
we rely on RCU protection while dereferencing pcpu_rt.

net: fix __dst_negative_advice() race

commit 92f1655aa2b2294d0b49925f3b875a634bd3b59e upstream.

__dst_negative_advice() does not enforce proper RCU rules when
sk->dst_cache must be cleared, leading to possible UAF.

RCU rules are that we must first clear sk->sk_dst_cache,
then call dst_release(old_dst).

Note that sk_dst_reset(sk) is implementing this protocol correctly,
while __dst_negative_advice() uses the wrong order.

Given that ip6_negative_advice() has special logic
against RTF_CACHE, this means each of the three ->negative_advice()
existing methods must perform the sk_dst_reset() themselves.

Note the check against NULL dst is centralized in
__dst_negative_advice(), there is no need to duplicate
it in various callbacks.

Many thanks to Clement Lecigne for tracking this issue.

This old bug became visible after the blamed commit, using UDP sockets.

net/ipv6: Fix route deleting failure when metric equals 0

commit bb487272380d120295e955ad8acfcbb281b57642 upstream.

net/ipv6: Fix route deleting failure when metric equals 0

commit bb487272380d120295e955ad8acfcbb281b57642 upstream.

Problem
=========
After commit 67f695134703 ("ipv6: Move setting default metric for routes"),
we noticed that the logic of assigning the default value of fc_metirc
changed in the ioctl process. That is, when users use ioctl(fd, SIOCADDRT,
rt) with a non-zero metric to add a route, then they may fail to delete a
route with passing in a metric value of 0 to the kernel by ioctl(fd,
SIOCDELRT, rt). But iproute can succeed in deleting it.

As a reference, when using iproute tools by netlink to delete routes with
a metric parameter equals 0, like the command as follows:

ip -6 route del fe80::/64 via fe81::5054:ff:fe11:3451 dev eth0 metric 0

the user can still succeed in deleting the route entry with the smallest
metric.

Root Reason
===========
After commit 67f695134703 ("ipv6: Move setting default metric for routes"),
When ioctl() pass in SIOCDELRT with a zero metric, rtmsg_to_fib6_config()
will set a defalut value (1024) to cfg->fc_metric in kernel, and in
ip6_route_del() and the line 4074 at net/ipv3/route.c, it will check by

if (cfg->fc_metric && cfg->fc_metric != rt->fib6_metric)
continue;

and the condition is true and skip the later procedure (deleting route)
because cfg->fc_metric != rt->fib6_metric. But before that commit,
cfg->fc_metric is still zero there, so the condition is false and it
will do the following procedure (deleting).

Solution
========
In order to keep a consistent behaviour across netlink() and ioctl(), we
should allow to delete a route with a metric value of 0. So we only do
the default setting of fc_metric in route adding.
