[PATCH net 0/6] netfilter updates for net

[Florian Westphal]

Hello,

This PR contains nf_tables updates for your *net* tree.

First patch fixes table validation, I broke this in 6.4 when tracking
validation state per table, reported by Pablo, fixup from myself.

Second patch makes sure objects waiting for memory release have been
released, this was broken in 6.1, patch from Pablo Neira Ayuso.

Patch three is a fix-for-fix from previous PR: In case a transaction
gets aborted, gc sequence counter needs to be incremented so pending
gc requests are invalidated, from Pablo.

Same for patch 4: gc list needs to use gc list lock, not destroy lock,
also from Pablo.

Patch 5 fixes a UaF in a set backend, but this should only occur when
failslab is enabled for GFP_KERNEL allocations, broken since feature
was added in 5.6, from myself.

Patch 6 fixes a double-free bug that was also added via previous PR:
We must not schedule gc work if the previous batch is still queued.

[PATCH net 1/6] netfilter: nf_tables: validate all pending tables

[Florian Westphal]

We have to validate all tables in the transaction that are in
VALIDATE_DO state, the blamed commit below did not move the break
statement to its right location so we only validate one table.

Moreover, we can't init table->validate to _SKIP when a table object
is allocated.

If we do, then if a transcaction creates a new table and then
fails the transaction, nfnetlink will loop and nft will hang until
user cancels the command.

Add back the pernet state as a place to stash the last state encountered.
This is either _DO (we hit an error during commit validation) or _SKIP
(transaction passed all checks).

[PATCH net 2/6] netfilter: nf_tables: flush pending destroy work before netlink notifier

[Florian Westphal]

From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

Destroy work waits for the RCU grace period then it releases the objects
with no mutex held. All releases objects follow this path for
transactions, therefore, order is guaranteed and references to top-level
objects in the hierarchy remain valid.

However, netlink notifier might interfer with pending destroy work.
rcu_barrier() is not correct because objects are not release via RCU
callback. Flush destroy work before releasing objects from netlink
notifier path.

[PATCH net 6/6] netfilter: nf_tables: defer gc run if previous batch is still pending

[Florian Westphal]

Don't queue more gc work, else we may queue the same elements multiple
times.

If an element is flagged as dead, this can mean that either the previous
gc request was invalidated/discarded by a transaction or that the previous
request is still pending in the system work queue.

The latter will happen if the gc interval is set to a very low value,
e.g. 1ms, and system work queue is backlogged.

The sets refcount is 1 if no previous gc requeusts are queued, so add
a helper for this and skip gc run if old requests are pending.

Add a helper for this and skip the gc run in this case.

[PATCH net 0/6] netfilter updates for net

[Florian Westphal]

Hello,

This PR contains nf_tables updates for your *net* tree.
This time almost all fixes are for old bugs:

First patch fixes a 4-byte stack OOB write, from myself.
This was broken ever since nftables was switches from 128 to 32bit
register addressing in v4.1.

2nd patch fixes an out-of-bounds read.
This has been broken ever since xt_osf got added in 2.6.31, the bug
was then just moved around during refactoring, from Wander Lairson Costa.

3rd patch adds a missing enum description, from Phil Sutter.

4th patch fixes a UaF inftables that occurs when userspace adds
elements with a timeout so small that expiration happens while the
transaction is still in progress.  Fix from Pablo Neira Ayuso.

Patch 5 fixes a memory out of bounds access, this was
broken since v4.20. Patch from Kyle Zeng and Jozsef Kadlecsik.

Patch 6 fixes another bogus memory access when building audit
record. Bug added in the previous pull request, fix from Pablo.

The following changes since commit 1a961e74d5abbea049588a3d74b759955b4ed9d5:
