The commit in the "Fixes" tag tried to avoid a case where policy check
is ignored due to dst caching in next hops.
However, when the traffic is locally consumed, the dst may be cached
in a local TCP or UDP socket as part of early demux. In this case the
"disable_policy" flag is not checked as ip_route_input_noref() was only
called before caching, and thus, packets after the initial packet in a
flow will be dropped if not matching policies.
Fix by checking the "disable_policy" flag also when a valid dst is
already available.

Commit e21145a987 ("ipv4: namespacify ip_early_demux sysctl knob") made
it possible to enable/disable early_demux on a per-netns basis. Then, we
introduced two knobs, tcp_early_demux and udp_early_demux, to switch it for
TCP/UDP in commit dddb64bcb3 ("net: Add sysctl to toggle early demux for
tcp and udp"). However, the .proc_handler() was wrong and actually
disabled us from changing the behaviour in each netns.
We can execute early_demux if net.ipv4.ip_early_demux is on and each proto
.early_demux() handler is not NULL. When we toggle (tcp|udp)_early_demux,
the change itself is saved in each netns variable, but the .early_demux()
handler is a global variable, so the handler is switched based on the
init_net's sysctl variable. Thus, netns (tcp|udp)_early_demux knobs have
nothing to do with the logic. Whether we CAN execute proto .early_demux()
is always decided by init_net's sysctl knob, and whether we DO it or not is
by each netns ip_early_demux knob.
This patch namespacifies (tcp|udp)_early_demux again. For now, the users
of the .early_demux() handler are TCP and UDP only, and they are called
directly to avoid retpoline. So, we can remove the .early_demux() handler
from inet6?_protos and need not dereference them in ip6?_rcv_finish_core().
If another proto needs .early_demux(), we can restore it at that time.

Add support for TPROXY via a new bpf helper, bpf_sk_assign().
This helper requires the BPF program to discover the socket via a call
to bpf_sk*_lookup_*(), then pass this socket to the new helper. The
helper takes its own reference to the socket in addition to any existing
reference that may or may not currently be obtained for the duration of
BPF processing. For the destination socket to receive the traffic, the
traffic must be routed towards that socket via local route. The
simplest example route is below, but in practice you may want to route
traffic more narrowly (eg by CIDR):
$ ip route add local default dev lo
This patch avoids trying to introduce an extra bit into the skb->sk, as
that would require more invasive changes to all code interacting with
the socket to ensure that the bit is handled correctly, such as all
error-handling cases along the path from the helper in BPF through to
the orphan path in the input. Instead, we opt to use the destructor
variable to switch on the prefetch of the socket.

Several conflicts, seemingly all over the place.
I used Stephen Rothwell's sample resolutions for many of these, if not
just to double check my own work, so definitely the credit largely
goes to him.
The NFP conflict consisted of a bug fix (moving operations
past the rhashtable operation) while chaning the initial
argument in the function call in the moved code.
The net/dsa/master.c conflict had to do with a bug fix intermixing of
making dsa_master_set_mtu() static with the fixing of the tagging
attribute location.
cls_flower had a conflict because the dup reject fix from Or
overlapped with the addition of port range classifiction.
__set_phy_supported()'s conflict was relatively easy to resolve
because Andrew fixed it in both trees, so it was just a matter
of taking the net-next copy. Or at least I think it was :-)
Joe Stringer's fix to the handling of netns id 0 in bpf_sk_lookup()
intermixed with changes on how the sdif and caller_net are calculated
in these code paths in net-next.
The remaining BPF conflicts were largely about the addition of the

to the relevant data structure where the MD pointer macros are used.

In commit 5fa12739a5 ("net: ipv4: listify ip_rcv_finish") calling
dst_input(skb) was split-out. The ip_sublist_rcv_finish() just calls
dst_input(skb) in a loop.
The problem is that ip_sublist_rcv_finish() forgot to remove the SKB
from the list before invoking dst_input(). Further more we need to
clear skb->next as other parts of the network stack use another kind
of SKB lists for xmit_more (see dev_hard_start_xmit).
A crash occurs if e.g. dst_input() invoke ip_forward(), which calls
dst_output()/ip_output() that eventually calls __dev_queue_xmit() +
sch_direct_xmit(), and a crash occurs in validate_xmit_skb_list().
This patch only fixes the crash, but there is a huge potential for
a performance boost if we can pass an SKB-list through to ip_forward.

ip_rcv_finish_core(), if it does not drop, sets skb->dst by either early
demux or route lookup. The last step, calling dst_input(skb), is left to
the caller; in the listified case, we split to form sublists with a common
dst, but then ip_sublist_rcv_finish() just calls dst_input(skb) in a loop.
The next step in listification would thus be to add a list_input() method
to struct dst_entry.
Early demux is an indirect call based on iph->protocol; this is another
opportunity for listification which is not taken here (it would require
slicing up ip_rcv_finish_core() to allow splitting on protocol changes).

Also involved adding a way to run a netfilter hook over a list of packets.
Rather than attempting to make netfilter know about lists (which would be
a major project in itself) we just let it call the regular okfn (in this
case ip_rcv_finish()) for any packets it steals, and have it give us back
a list of packets it's synchronously accepted (which normally NF_HOOK
would automatically call okfn() on, but we want to be able to potentially
pass the list to a listified version of okfn().)
The netfilter hooks themselves are indirect calls that still happen per-
packet (see nf_hook_entry_hookfn()), but again, changing that can be left
for future work.
There is potential for out-of-order receives if the netfilter hook ends up
synchronously stealing packets, as they will be processed before any
accepts earlier in the list. However, it was already possible for an
asynchronous accept to cause out-of-order receives, so presumably this is
considered OK.

The function ip_rcv_finish() calls l3mdev_ip_rcv(). On any VRF except
the global VRF, this replaces skb->dev with the VRF master interface.
When calling ip_route_input_noref() from here, the checks for forwarding
look at this master device instead of the initial ingress interface.
This will allow packets to be routed which normally would be dropped.
For example, an interface that is not assigned an IP address should
drop packets, but because the checking is against the master device, the
packet will be forwarded.
The fix here is to still call l3mdev_ip_rcv(), but remember the initial
net_device. This is passed to the other functions within ip_rcv_finish,
so they still see the original interface.

Currently the VRF driver uses the rx_handler to switch the skb device
to the VRF device. Switching the dev prior to the ip / ipv6 layer
means the VRF driver has to duplicate IP/IPv6 processing which adds
overhead and makes features such as retaining the ingress device index
more complicated than necessary.
This patch moves the hook to the L3 layer just after the first NF_HOOK
for PRE_ROUTING. This location makes exposing the original ingress device
trivial (next patch) and allows adding other NF_HOOKs to the VRF driver
in the future.
dev_queue_xmit_nit is exported so that the VRF driver can cycle the skb
with the switched device through the packet taps to maintain current
behavior (tcpdump can be used on either the vrf device or the enslaved
devices).

This is immediately motivated by the bridge code that chains functions that

need to guess about the best expression for the network namespace to process

As net is frequently one of the first things computed in continuation functions
after netfilter has done it's job passing in the desired network namespace is in
many cases a code simplification.
To support this change the function dst_output_okfn is introduced to
simplify passing dst_output as an okfn. For the moment dst_output_okfn

Pass a network namespace parameter into the netfilter hooks. At the
call site of the netfilter hooks the path a packet is taking through
the network stack is well known which allows the network namespace to
be easily and reliabily.
This allows the replacement of magic code like
"dev_net(state->in?:state->out)" that appears at the start of most
netfilter hooks with "state->net".
In almost all cases the network namespace passed in is derived
from the first network device passed in, guaranteeing those
paths will not see any changes in practice.

br_netfilter_hooks.c:br_nf_pre_routing_finish() dev_net(skb->dev) before skb->dev is set to nf_bridge->physindev
In all cases these exceptions seem to be a better expression for the
network namespace the packet is being processed in then the historic
"dev_net(in?in:out)". I am documenting them in case something odd
pops up and someone starts trying to track down what happened.

Introduces a new dst_metadata which enables to carry per packet metadata
between forwarding and processing elements via the skb->dst pointer.
The structure is set up to be a union. Thus, each separate type of
metadata requires its own dst instance. If demand arises to carry
multiple types of metadata concurrently, metadata dst entries can be
made stackable.
The metadata dst entry is refcnt'ed as expected for now but a non
reference counted use is possible if the reference is forced before
queueing the skb.
In order to allow allocating dsts with variable length, the existing
dst_alloc() is split into a dst_alloc() and dst_init() function. The
existing dst_init() function to initialize the subsystem is being
renamed to dst_subsys_init() to make it clear what is what.
The check before ip_route_input() is changed to ignore metadata dsts
and drop the dst inside the routing function thus allowing to interpret
metadata in a later commit.
