PPP units don't hold any reference on the channels connected to it.
It is the channel's responsibility to ensure that it disconnects from
its unit before being destroyed.
In practice, this is ensured by ppp_unregister_channel() disconnecting
the channel from the unit before dropping a reference on the channel.
However, it is possible for an unregistered channel to connect to a PPP
unit: register a channel with ppp_register_net_channel(), attach a
/dev/ppp file to it with ioctl(PPPIOCATTCHAN), unregister the channel
with ppp_unregister_channel() and finally connect the /dev/ppp file to
a PPP unit with ioctl(PPPIOCCONNECT).
Once in this situation, the channel is only held by the /dev/ppp file,
which can be released at anytime and free the channel without letting
the parent PPP unit know. Then the ppp structure ends up with dangling
pointers in its ->channels list.
Prevent this scenario by forbidding unregistered channels from
connecting to PPP units. This maintains the code logic by keeping
ppp_unregister_channel() responsible from disconnecting the channel if
necessary and avoids modification on the reference counting mechanism.
This issue seems to predate git history (successfully reproduced on
Linux 2.6.26 and earlier PPP commits are unrelated).

GSO_BY_FRAGS correctness improvements
As requested [1], I went through and had a look at users of gso_size to
see if there were things that need to be fixed to consider
GSO_BY_FRAGS, and I have tried to improve our helper functions to deal
with this case.
I found a few. This fixes bugs relating to the use of
skb_gso_*_seglen() where GSO_BY_FRAGS is not considered.
Patch 1 renames skb_gso_validate_mtu to skb_gso_validate_network_len.
This is follow-up to my earlier patch 2b16f04872 ("net: create
skb_gso_validate_mac_len()"), and just makes everything a bit clearer.
Patches 2 and 3 replace the final users of skb_gso_network_seglen() -
which doesn't consider GSO_BY_FRAGS - with
skb_gso_validate_network_len(), which does. This allows me to make the
skb_gso_*_seglen functions private in patch 4 - now future users won't
accidentally do the wrong comparison.
Two things remain. One is qdisc_pkt_len_init, which is discussed at
[2] - it's caught up in the GSO_DODGY mess. I don't have any expertise
in GSO_DODGY, and it looks like a good clean fix will involve
unpicking the whole validation mess, so I have left it for now.
Secondly, there are 3 eBPF opcodes that change the gso_size of an SKB
and don't consider GSO_BY_FRAGS. This is going through the bpf tree.
Regards,
Daniel
[1] https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/comment/1852414/
[2] https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg482397.html
PS: This is all in the core networking stack. For a driver to be
affected by this it would need to support NETIF_F_GSO_SCTP /
NETIF_F_GSO_SOFTWARE and then either use gso_size or not be a purely
virtual device. (Many drivers look at gso_size, but do not support
SCTP segmentation, so the core network will segment an SCTP gso before
it hits them.) Based on that, the only driver that may be affected is
sunvnet, but I have no way of testing it, so I haven't looked at it.

However, the GSO size check does not consider the GSO_BY_FRAGS

If you take a GSO skb, and split it into packets, will the network
length (L3 headers + L4 headers + payload) of those packets be small
enough to fit within a given MTU?
skb_gso_validate_mtu gives you the answer to that question. However,
we recently added to add a way to validate the MAC length of a split GSO
skb (L2+L3+L4+payload), and the names get confusing, so rename
skb_gso_validate_mtu to skb_gso_validate_network_len

net/ipv6: Add support for path selection using hash of 5-tuple
Hardware supports multipath selection using the standard L4 5-tuple
instead of just L3 and the flow label. In addition, some network
operators prefer IPv6 path selection to use the 5-tuple. To that end,
add support to IPv6 for multipath hash policy similar to
bf4e0a3db9 ("net: ipv4: add support for ECMP hash policy choice").
The default is still L3 which covers source and destination addresses
along with flow label and IPv6 protocol. This gives users a choice in
hash algorithms if they believe L3 only and the IPv6 flow label are not
sufficient for their use case.
A separate sysctl is added for IPv6, allowing IPv4 and IPv6 to use
different algorithms if desired.
The first 3 patches modify the IPv4 variant so that at the end of the
patch set the ipv4 and ipv6 implementations are direct parallels.
Patch 4 refactors the existing rt6_multipath_hash in preparation for
adding the policy option.
Patch 5 renames the existing netevent to have IPv4 in the name so ipv4
changes can be distinguished from IPv6 if the netevent handler cares.
Patch 6 adds the skb as an argument through the FIB lookup functions
to the multipath selection. Needed for the forwarding case.
Patch 7 adds the L4 hash support.
Patch 8 adds the hook for the netevent to the spectrum driver to update
the ASIC.

__get_hash_from_flowi6 is still used for flowlabels, but the IPv4
variant and the wrappers to both are not used. Remove them.

Similar to 28678f07f1 ("mlxsw: spectrum_router: Update multipath hash
parameters upon netevents") for IPv4, make sure the kernel and asic are
using the same hash algorithm for path selection.

Some operators prefer IPv6 path selection to use a standard 5-tuple
hash rather than just an L3 hash with the flow the label. To that end
add support to IPv6 for multipath hash policy similar to bf4e0a3db9
("net: ipv4: add support for ECMP hash policy choice"). The default
is still L3 which covers source and destination addresses along with
flow label and IPv6 protocol.

IPv6 does path selection for multipath routes deep in the lookup
functions. The next patch adds L4 hash option and needs the skb
for the forward path. To get the skb to the relevant FIB lookup
functions it needs to go through the fib rules layer, so add a
lookup_data argument to the fib_lookup_arg struct.

NETEVENT_IPV4_MPATH_HASH_UPDATE to denote it relates to a change

Make rt6_multipath_hash more of a direct parallel to fib_multipath_hash
and reduce stack and overhead in the process: get_hash_from_flowi6 is
just a wrapper around __get_hash_from_flowi6 with another stack
allocation for flow_keys. Move setting the addresses, protocol and
label into rt6_multipath_hash and allow it to make the call to
flow_hash_from_keys.

As of commit e37b1e978b ("ipv6: route: dissect flow in input path if
fib rules need it") fib_multipath_hash takes an optional flow keys. If
non-NULL it means the skb has already been dissected. If not set, then
fib_multipath_hash needs to call skb_flow_dissect_flow_keys.
Simplify the logic by setting flkeys to the local stack variable keys.
Simplifies fib_multipath_hash by only have 1 set of instructions
setting hash_keys.

Symmetry is good and allows easy comparison that ipv4 and ipv6 are
doing the same thing. To that end, change ip_multipath_l3_keys to
set addresses at the end after the icmp compares, and move the
initialization of ipv6 flow keys to rt6_multipath_hash.
