[PATCH -stable,5.4.x 0/3] Netfilter fixes for -stable

[Pablo Neira Ayuso]

Hi Greg, Sasha,

This batch contains a backport for recent fixes already upstream for 5.4.x.

The following list shows the backported patches, I am using original commit
IDs for reference:

1) b53c11664250 ("netfilter: nf_tables: set element extended ACK reporting support")

2) 7395dfacfff6 ("netfilter: nf_tables: use timestamp to check for set element timeout")

3) cff3bd012a95 ("netfilter: nf_tables: prefer nft_chain_validate")

Please, apply,
Thanks

[PATCH -stable,5.4.x 2/3] netfilter: nf_tables: use timestamp to check for set element timeout

[Pablo Neira Ayuso]

commit 7395dfacfff65e9938ac0889dafa1ab01e987d15 upstream

Add a timestamp field at the beginning of the transaction, store it
in the nftables per-netns area.

Update set backend .insert, .deactivate and sync gc path to use the
timestamp, this avoids that an element expires while control plane
transaction is still unfinished.

.lookup and .update, which are used from packet path, still use the
current time to check if the element has expired. And .get path and dump
also since this runs lockless under rcu read size lock. Then, there is
async gc which also needs to check the current time since it runs
asynchronously from a workqueue.

[ NB: rbtree GC updates has been excluded because GC is asynchronous. ]

[PATCH -stable,5.4.x 3/3] netfilter: nf_tables: prefer nft_chain_validate

[Pablo Neira Ayuso]

From: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>

commit cff3bd012a9512ac5ed858d38e6ed65f6391008c upstream.

nft_chain_validate already performs loop detection because a cycle will
result in a call stack overflow (ctx->level >= NFT_JUMP_STACK_SIZE).

It also follows maps via ->validate callback in nft_lookup, so there
appears no reason to iterate the maps again.

nf_tables_check_loops() and all its helper functions can be removed.
This improves ruleset load time significantly, from 23s down to 12s.

This also fixes a crash bug. Old loop detection code can result in
unbounded recursion:

BUG: TASK stack guard page was hit at ....
Oops: stack guard page: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN
CPU: 4 PID: 1539 Comm: nft Not tainted 6.10.0-rc5+ #1
[..]

with a suitable ruleset during validation of register stores.

I can't see any actual reason to attempt to check for this from
nft_validate_register_store(), at this point the transaction is still in
progress, so we don't have a full picture of the rule graph.

For nf-next it might make sense to either remove it or make this depend
on table->validate_state in case we could catch an error earlier
(for improved error reporting to userspace).
