2026-04-01netfilter: ctnetlink: zero expect NAT fields when CTA_EXPECT_NAT absentQi Tang1-0/+6
ctnetlink_alloc_expect() allocates expectations from a non-zeroing slab cache via nf_ct_expect_alloc(). When CTA_EXPECT_NAT is not present in the netlink message, saved_addr and saved_proto are never initialized. Stale data from a previous slab occupant can then be dumped to userspace by ctnetlink_exp_dump_expect(), which checks these fields to decide whether to emit CTA_EXPECT_NAT. The safe sibling nf_ct_expect_init(), used by the packet path, explicitly zeroes these fields. Zero saved_addr, saved_proto and dir in the else branch, guarded by IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NF_NAT) since these fields only exist when NAT is enabled. Confirmed by priming the expect slab with NAT-bearing expectations, freeing them, creating a new expectation without CTA_EXPECT_NAT, and observing that the ctnetlink dump emits a spurious CTA_EXPECT_NAT containing stale data from the prior allocation.

2026-04-01netfilter: nf_conntrack_helper: pass helper to expect cleanupQi Tang1-1/+1
nf_conntrack_helper_unregister() calls nf_ct_expect_iterate_destroy() to remove expectations belonging to the helper being unregistered. However, it passes NULL instead of the helper pointer as the data argument, so expect_iter_me() never matches any expectation and all of them survive the cleanup. After unregister returns, nfnl_cthelper_del() frees the helper object immediately. Subsequent expectation dumps or packet-driven init_conntrack() calls then dereference the freed exp->helper, causing a use-after-free. Pass the actual helper pointer so expectations referencing it are properly destroyed before the helper object is freed.

2026-04-01netfilter: flowtable: strictly check for maximum number of actionsPablo Neira Ayuso1-66/+130
The maximum number of flowtable hardware offload actions in IPv6 is: * ethernet mangling (4 payload actions, 2 for each ethernet address) * SNAT (4 payload actions) * DNAT (4 payload actions) * Double VLAN (4 vlan actions, 2 for popping vlan, and 2 for pushing) for QinQ. * Redirect (1 action) Which makes 17, while the maximum is 16. But act_ct supports for tunnels actions too. Note that payload action operates at 32-bit word level, so mangling an IPv6 address takes 4 payload actions. Update flow_action_entry_next() calls to check for the maximum number of supported actions. While at it, rise the maximum number of actions per flow from 16 to 24 so this works fine with IPv6 setups.

syzbot reported a soft lockup in mptcp_recvmsg() [0]. When receiving data with MSG_PEEK | MSG_WAITALL flags, the skb is not removed from the sk_receive_queue. This causes sk_wait_data() to always find available data and never perform actual waiting, leading to a soft lockup. Fix this by adding a 'last' parameter to track the last peeked skb.

2026-03-31net: ipv6: flowlabel: defer exclusive option free until RCU teardownZhengchuan Liang1-5/+0
`ip6fl_seq_show()` walks the global flowlabel hash under the seq-file RCU read-side lock and prints `fl->opt->opt_nflen` when an option block is present. Exclusive flowlabels currently free `fl->opt` as soon as `fl->users` drops to zero in `fl_release()`. However, the surrounding `struct ip6_flowlabel` remains visible in the global hash table until later garbage collection removes it and `fl_free_rcu()` finally tears it down. A concurrent `/proc/net/ip6_flowlabel` reader can therefore race that early `kfree()` and dereference freed option state, triggering a crash in `ip6fl_seq_show()`. Fix this by keeping `fl->opt` alive until `fl_free_rcu()`. That matches the lifetime already required for the enclosing flowlabel while readers can still reach it under RCU.

2026-03-31bridge: mrp: reject zero test interval to avoid OOM panicXiang Mei1-2/+2
br_mrp_start_test() and br_mrp_start_in_test() accept the user-supplied interval value from netlink without validation. When interval is 0, usecs_to_jiffies(0) yields 0, causing the delayed work (br_mrp_test_work_expired / br_mrp_in_test_work_expired) to reschedule itself with zero delay. This creates a tight loop on system_percpu_wq that allocates and transmits MRP test frames at maximum rate, exhausting all system memory and causing a kernel panic via OOM deadlock. The same zero-interval issue applies to br_mrp_start_in_test_parse() for interconnect test frames. Use NLA_POLICY_MIN(NLA_U32, 1) in the nla_policy tables for both IFLA_BRIDGE_MRP_START_TEST_INTERVAL and IFLA_BRIDGE_MRP_START_IN_TEST_INTERVAL, so zero is rejected at the netlink attribute parsing layer before the value ever reaches the workqueue scheduling code. This is consistent with how other bridge subsystems (br_fdb, br_mst) enforce range constraints on netlink attributes.

Syzbot reported a KMSAN uninit-value warning in gso_features_check() called from netif_skb_features() [1]. gso_features_check() reads iph->frag_off to decide whether to clear mangleid_features. Accessing the IPv4 header via ip_hdr()/inner_ip_hdr() can rely on skb header offsets that are not always safe for direct dereference on packets injected from PF_PACKET paths.

Commit ba9db6f907ac ("net: clear the dst when changing skb protocol") added dst clearing when a BPF program changes the skb protocol (e.g. IPv4 to IPv6). Since that was a fix we only cleared the dst when the L3 protocol actually changes to keep it minimal. As suggested during the discussion (see Link) encap or decap operation which wraps or unwraps a same-protocol header may also render the existing dst incorrect - even if that doesn't result in a crash, just the wrong route for the now-outermost IP dst.

2026-03-29svcrdma: Factor out WR chain linking into helperChuck Lever1-39/+28
svc_rdma_prepare_write_chunk() and svc_rdma_prepare_reply_chunk() contain identical code for linking RDMA R/W work requests onto a Send context's WR chain. This duplication increases maintenance burden and risks divergent bug fixes. Introduce svc_rdma_cc_link_wrs() to consolidate the WR chain linking logic. The helper walks the chunk context's rwctxts list, chains each WR via rdma_rw_ctx_wrs(), and updates the Send context's chain head and SQE count. Completion signaling is requested only for the tail WR (posted first). No functional change. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>
2026-03-29svcrdma: Add Write chunk WRs to the RPC's Send WR chainChuck Lever2-23/+81
Previously, Write chunk RDMA Writes were posted via a separate ib_post_send() call with their own completion handler. Each Write chunk incurred a doorbell and generated a completion event. Link Write chunk WRs onto the RPC Reply's Send WR chain so that a single ib_post_send() call posts both the RDMA Writes and the Send WR. A single completion event signals that all operations have finished. This reduces both doorbell rate and completion rate, as well as eliminating the latency of a round-trip between the Write chunk completion and the subsequent Send WR posting. The lifecycle of Write chunk resources changes: previously, the svc_rdma_write_done() completion handler released Write chunk resources when RDMA Writes completed. With WR chaining, resources remain live until the Send completion. A new sc_write_info_list tracks Write chunk metadata attached to each Send context, and svc_rdma_write_chunk_release() frees these resources when the Send context is released. The svc_rdma_write_done() handler now handles only error cases. On success it returns immediately since the Send completion handles resource release. On failure (WR flush), it closes the connection to signal to the client that the RPC Reply is incomplete. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>

2026-03-29svcrdma: Add fair queuing for Send Queue accessChuck Lever3-68/+135
When the Send Queue fills, multiple threads may wait for SQ slots. The previous implementation had no ordering guarantee, allowing starvation when one thread repeatedly acquires slots while others wait indefinitely. Introduce a ticket-based fair queuing system. Each waiter takes a ticket number and is served in FIFO order. This ensures forward progress for all waiters when SQ capacity is constrained. The implementation has two phases: 1. Fast path: attempt to reserve SQ slots without waiting 2. Slow path: take a ticket, wait for turn, then wait for slots The ticket system adds two atomic counters to the transport: - sc_sq_ticket_head: next ticket to issue - sc_sq_ticket_tail: ticket currently being served A dedicated wait queue (sc_sq_ticket_wait) handles ticket ordering, separate from sc_send_wait which handles SQ capacity. This separation ensures that send completions (the high-frequency wake source) wake only the current ticket holder rather than all queued waiters. Ticket handoff wakes only the ticket wait queue, and each ticket holder that exits via connection close propagates the wake to the next waiter in line. When a waiter successfully reserves slots, it advances the tail counter and wakes the next waiter. This creates an orderly handoff that prevents starvation while maintaining good throughput on the fast path when contention is low. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>

Limit the rq_respages fill in svc_alloc_arg() to that range instead of scanning the full array. svc_init_buffer() initializes rq_next_page to span the entire rq_respages array, so the first svc_alloc_arg() call fills all slots.

The rq_pages array holds pages allocated for incoming RPC requests. Two transport receive paths NULL entries in rq_pages to prevent svc_rqst_release_pages() from freeing pages that the transport has taken ownership of: - svc_tcp_save_pages() moves partial request data pages to svsk->sk_pages during multi-fragment TCP reassembly. - svc_rdma_clear_rqst_pages() moves request data pages to head->rc_pages because they are targets of active RDMA Read WRs. A new rq_pages_nfree field in struct svc_rqst records how many entries were NULLed. svc_alloc_arg() uses it to refill only those entries rather than scanning the full rq_pages array. In steady state, the transport NULLs a handful of entries per RPC, so the allocator visits only those entries instead of the full ~259 slots (for 1MB messages).

2026-03-29svcrdma: preserve rq_next_page in svc_rdma_save_io_pagesChuck Lever1-4/+2
svc_rdma_save_io_pages() transfers response pages to the send context and sets those slots to NULL. It then resets rq_next_page to equal rq_respages, hiding the NULL region from svc_rqst_release_pages(). Now that svc_rqst_release_pages() handles NULL entries, this reset is no longer necessary. Removing it preserves the invariant that the range [rq_respages, rq_next_page) accurately describes how many response pages were consumed, enabling a subsequent optimization in svc_alloc_arg() that refills only the consumed range.

2026-03-29SUNRPC: Handle NULL entries in svc_rqst_release_pagesChuck Lever1-7/+13
svc_rqst_release_pages() releases response pages between rq_respages and rq_next_page. It currently passes the entire range to release_pages(), which does not expect NULL entries. A subsequent patch preserves the rq_next_page pointer in svc_rdma_save_io_pages() so that it accurately records how many response pages were consumed. After that change, the range [rq_respages, rq_next_page) can contain NULL entries where pages have already been transferred to a send context. Iterate through the range entry by entry, skipping NULLs, to handle this case correctly. Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>
2026-03-29SUNRPC: Allocate a separate Reply page arrayChuck Lever4-32/+54
struct svc_rqst uses a single dynamically-allocated page array (rq_pages) for both the incoming RPC Call message and the outgoing RPC Reply message. rq_respages is a sliding pointer into rq_pages that each transport receive path must compute based on how many pages the Call consumed. This boundary tracking is a source of confusion and bugs, and prevents an RPC transaction from having both a large Call and a large Reply simultaneously. Allocate rq_respages as its own page array, eliminating the boundary arithmetic. This decouples Call and Reply buffer lifetimes, following the precedent set by rq_bvec (a separate dynamically- allocated array for I/O vectors). Each svc_rqst now pins twice as many pages as before. For a server running 16 threads with a 1MB maximum payload, the additional cost is roughly 16MB of pinned memory. The new dynamic svc thread count facility keeps this overhead minimal on an idle server. A subsequent patch in this series limits per-request repopulation to only the pages released during the previous RPC, avoiding a full-array scan on each call to svc_alloc_arg(). Note: We've considered several alternatives to maintaining a full second array. Each alternative reintroduces either boundary logic complexity or I/O-path allocation pressure. rq_next_page is initialized in svc_alloc_arg() and svc_process() during Reply construction, and in svc_rdma_recvfrom() as a precaution on error paths. Transport receive paths no longer compute it from the Call size. Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>
2026-03-29SUNRPC: Tighten bounds checking in svc_rqst_replace_pageChuck Lever1-4/+4
svc_rqst_replace_page() builds the Reply buffer by advancing rq_next_page through the response page range. The bounds check validates rq_next_page against the full rq_pages array, but the valid range for rq_next_page is [rq_respages, rq_page_end]. Use those bounds instead. This is correct today because rq_respages and rq_page_end both point into rq_pages, and it prepares for a subsequent change that separates the Reply page array from rq_pages.

2026-03-29sunrpc: split cache_detail queue into request and reader listsJeff Layton1-84/+59
Replace the single interleaved queue (which mixed cache_request and cache_reader entries distinguished by a ->reader flag) with two dedicated lists: cd->requests for upcall requests and cd->readers for open file handles. Readers now track their position via a monotonically increasing sequence number (next_seqno) rather than by their position in the shared list. Each cache_request is assigned a seqno when enqueued, and a new cache_next_request() helper finds the next request at or after a given seqno. This eliminates the cache_queue wrapper struct entirely, simplifies the reader-skipping loops in cache_read/cache_poll/cache_ioctl/ cache_release, and makes the data flow easier to reason about.

2026-03-29sunrpc/cache: improve RCU safety in cache_list walking.NeilBrown1-32/+28
1/ consistently use hlist_add_head_rcu() when adding to the cachelist to reflect the fact that it can be concurrently walked using RCU. In fact hlist_add_head() has all the needed barriers so this is no safety issue, primarily a clarity issue. 2/ call cache_get() *before* adding the list with hlist_add_head_rcu(). It is generally safest to inc the refcount before publishing a reference. In this case it doesn't have any behavioural effect as code which does an RCU walk does not depend on precision of the refcount, and it will always be at least one. But it looks more correct to use this order. 3/ avoid possible races between NULL tests and hlist_entry_safe() calls. It is possible that a test will find that .next or .head is not NULL, but hlist_entry_safe() will find that it is NULL. This can lead to incorrect behaviour with the list-walk terminating early. It is safest to always call hlist_entry_safe() and test the result. Also simplify the *ppos calculation by simply assigning the hash shifted 32, rather than masking out low bits and incrementing high bits.
