These two fields back the fallback skb pool that find_skb() uses.
Every helper that touches them lives in netconsole now (refill_skbs,
refill_skbs_work_handler, netconsole_skb_pool_init,
netconsole_skb_pool_flush, find_skb, netcons_skb_pop), so the data

The fallback skb pool fronted by find_skb() is netconsole's only client:
every other netpoll goes through __netpoll_setup() / netpoll_send_skb()
without ever touching np->skb_pool.
Today __netpoll_setup() and __netpoll_cleanup() create and destroy the
pool for everyone, paying ~48 KB of pre-allocated skbs per netpoll
instance that only netconsole uses, what a waste!
Move the responsibility to netconsole. __netpoll_setup() did this under
the RTNL, but netconsole enables targets from enabled_store() /
alloc_param_target() without it, while the teardown path flushes the pool
(cancel_work_sync() + skb_queue_purge()) under the RTNL from
netconsole_process_cleanups_core(). Initialising the queue head and the
refill work on every enable would therefore race that flush.
They only need initialising once: after a flush the queue head is left
valid and empty and cancel_work_sync() leaves the work re-armable. Set
them up in alloc_and_init(), while the target is not yet reachable, and
let the enable paths only refill the pool via refill_skbs(), which
serialises with the flush through skb_pool.lock. See discussions in [1]

These three helpers manage the per-netpoll fallback skb pool. They
are file-static today because all of their callers live in
net/core/netpoll.c. Subsequent patches relocate the pool's owner
from struct netpoll to the only consumer that actually uses it
(netconsole), and that work needs netconsole to drive the helpers
directly while the function bodies still live here.
Drop static, add prototypes in <linux/netpoll.h>, and
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() each. No behaviour change.
The exports are transitional. Each helper is moved into
drivers/net/netconsole.c later in this series, and at that point
its EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() and prototype are dropped. By the end of

====================
net: Support per-netns device unregistration
The biggest blocker to per-netns RTNL is netdev unregistration.
It starts within a single netns, but it can eventually involve
multiple namespaces.
There are three types of such cross-netns devices:
1. Paired devices (e.g., netkit, veth, vxcan)
-> Unregistering one device also deletes its peer, which
may reside in another netns.
2. Tunnel devices (e.g., bareudp, geneve, etc)
-> Destroying a netns removes devices in another netns if
their backend sockets reside in the dying netns
3. Stacked devices (e.g., ipvlan, macvlan, etc)
-> Removing the lower device also removes multiple upper
devices, each of which may reside in different namespaces.
While the first two device types require at most two rtnl_net_lock()s,
the stacked type has no upper limit. This makes it impossible to
freeze all necessary namespaces in advance.
This series introduces per-netns work, initially suggested at
NetConf 2024, to delegate the unregistration of such cross-netns
devices.
https://netdev.bots.linux.dev/netconf/2024/kuniyu.pdf#page=62
The first half of the series wraps NETDEV_UNREGISTER (in core) with
per-netns RTNL, adds a helper for per-netns device unregistration,
and forces per-netns device unregistration in the core code when
CONFIG_DEBUG_NET_SMALL_RTNL=y.
The latter half picks out one from each type (veth, bareudp, ipvlan)
and converts them to support per-netns device unregistration,
although the operations are **still serialised under RTNL** for now.
Please note that this series focuses only on the device unregistration
paths. For example, there are ASSERT_RTNL() left in other paths, and
Sashiko may point it out, but they are out of scope.
This is just the first step, and we need more incremental changes to
completely remove RTNL anyway.
Now, we can see that unregistering a lower device (veth0 below)
removes upper devices (ipvl2, ipvl3) in different namespaces using
per-netns work with a different PID. The lower device (veth0) is
freed only after all upper ipvlan devices have called netdev_put()
in ipvlan_uninit().

When a lower device is unregistered, its upper ipvlan devices
must also be unregistered. However, these upper devices may
reside in different netns than the lower device.
Let's use unregister_netdevice_queue_net() to support per-netns
device unregistration for ipvlan.
The new dying flag in struct ipvl_dev is used to avoid a race
that ipvlan_link_delete() is called while its lower device is
being removed in ipvlan_device_event().
If dying is true in ipvlan_link_delete(), the ipvlan device is
already destructed but not yet unregistered. In this case,
unregistration will be done in __rtnl_net_unlock() of the
->dellink() caller.
Tested:
1. Create veth in ns1 and two ipvlan devices in ns2 and ns3.
# ip netns add ns1
# ip netns add ns2
# ip netns add ns3
# ip -n ns1 link add veth0 type veth peer veth1
# ip -n ns2 link add ipvl2 link veth0 link-netns ns1 type ipvlan mode l2
# ip -n ns3 link add ipvl3 link veth0 link-netns ns1 type ipvlan mode l2
2. Run bpftrace to check that veth is unregistered first but
wait ipvlan to be unregistered
# bpftrace -e '#include <linux/netdevice.h>
kprobe:ipvlan_uninit,
kprobe:veth_dellink,
kprobe:free_netdev {
$dev = (struct net_device *)arg0;
printf("PID: %d | DEV: %s%s\n", pid, $dev->name, kstack());
}'
3. Remove the lower veth0 in ns1.
# ip -n ns1 link del veth0
We can see that veth0 is freed after unregistering ipvl2 and ipvl3
in per-netns work because ipvl_port holds refcount of veth0.

struct ipvl_port is shared between a lower device and its upper
ipvlan devices.
While each upper device can always access ipvl_port safely via
ipvlan_dev.port, the lower device relies on RTNL to access it
via net_device.rx_handler_data.
Once RTNL is removed, the lower device cannot read ipvl_port safely
in ipvlan_device_event() because the port could be freed concurrently
and net_device.rx_handler_data is set to NULL if the last ipvlan
device in another namespace is unregistered.
Let's convert ipvl_port.count to refcount_t and use RCU along with
refcount_inc_not_zero() in ipvlan_device_event().
netdev_put() in ipvlan_port_destroy() is also moved down after
cancel_work_sync(), which is the last user of port->dev.
Note that ipvlan->port is now set in ipvlan_init() so that it can
be used in ipvlan_uninit(), instead of ipvlan_port_get_rtnl()
(rtnl_dereference()).

bareudp_exit_rtnl_net() iterates bareudp devices whose sockets
are in the dying netns and queues them for destruction.
So the devices may reside in different netns.
Let's use unregister_netdevice_queue_net() to support per-netns
device unregistration.
list_del() is changed to list_del_init() to avoid queueing the
same device twice.
Even after bareudp_exit_rtnl_net() queues a cross-netns bareudp
device, bareudp_dellink() could be called concurrently for it
(once RTNL is removed). In such a case, __rtnl_net_unlock() will
perform the unregistration.
Note that bareudp uses register_pernet_subsys() instead of _device(),
so default_device_exit_batch() guarantees that the async per-netns
works are flushed before ->exit().
Tested:
1. Create bareudp device across two netns.
# ip netns add ns1
# ip netns add ns2
# ip -n ns1 link add bareudp0 link-netns ns2 type bareudp \
dstport 9292 ethertype ipv4
2. Run bpftrace to check that bareudp_uninit() is called between
->exit_rtnl() and ->exit().
# bpftrace -e '#include <linux/netdevice.h>
kprobe:bareudp_uninit {
$dev = (struct net_device *)arg0;
printf("PID: %d | DEV: %s%s\n", pid, $dev->name, kstack());
}
kprobe:bareudp_exit_rtnl_net,
kprobe:bareudp_exit_net {
printf("PID: %d%s\n", pid, kstack());
}'
3. Remove the netns where the bareudp socket resides
# ip netns del ns2
Now, we can see bareudp0 is unregistered by per-netns work
instead of cleanup_net() and it finishes before ->exit() to
avoid WARN_ON_ONCE(!list_empty(&bn->bareudp_list)) there.

struct bareudp_dev.net is the netns where the backend bareudp
socket resides.
struct bareudp_dev is linked to the bareudp_net.bareudp_list of

During netns dismantle or module unload, bareudp_exit_rtnl_net()
iterates the list and queues devices for destruction regardless

Thus, once RTNL is removed, the list can be modified concurrently
from different netns due to device removal.
Let's protect it with per-netns mutex.
bareudp_newlink() is still protected by rtnl_net_lock()s, so

This way, each device is queued for destruction only once by

For per-netns device unregistration, the list passed to
unregister_netdevice_many() must contain devices from a single
netns only (once all callers are converted).
Let's move collected devices in the following functions to
net->dev_unreg_head and let __rtnl_net_unlock() pass them to
unregister_netdevice_many().
* default_device_exit_batch()
* ops_exit_rtnl_list()
* __rtnl_kill_links()
This allows incremental conversion of each driver to support
per-netns device unregistration without affecting the normal
kernel where CONFIG_DEBUG_NET_SMALL_RTNL is disabled.
Note that this change unbatches synchronize_rcu() etc in
unregister_netdevice_many(), but we can later split it into
multiple stages to batch them again.

When we need to unregister a netdev in a different netns, we will
delegate its unregistration to per-netns work.
There are three types of such cross-netns devices:
1. Paired devices (e.g., netkit, veth, vxcan)
-> Unregistering one device also deletes its peer, which
may reside in another netns.
2. Tunnel devices (e.g., bareudp, geneve, etc)
-> Destroying a netns removes devices in another netns if
their backend sockets reside in the dying netns
3. Stacked devices (e.g., ipvlan, macvlan, etc)
-> Removing the lower device also removes multiple upper
devices, each of which may reside in different namespaces.
In these cases, we will use unregister_netdevice_queue_net() to
queue such potential cross-netns devices for destruction.
Each driver must not call both unregister_netdevice_queue_net()
and unregister_netdevice_queue() for the same device. See the
subsequent veth/bareudp/ipvlan patches for how they avoid double
queueing.
unregister_netdevice_queue_net() takes net and dev. If dev resides
in the net, it simply calls unregister_netdevice_queue().
If dev_net(dev) is different from the net, it enqueues the device
to dev_net(dev)->dev_unreg_head and schedules the per-netns work.
When __rtnl_net_unlock() is called from the per-netns work (or another
thread already holding the lock), unregister_netdevice_many_net()
collects the queued devices and calls unregister_netdevice_many()
to perform the actual unregistration.
During netns dismantle, rtnl_net_flush_workqueue() is called at the
end of default_device_exit_batch() to ensure that cross-netns
devices in the other alive netns are unregistered.
Once RTNL is removed, a device could be moved to another netns while
being queued to net->dev_unreg_head.
__dev_change_net_namespace() handles this race by acquiring
net->dev_unreg_lock of both the old and new netns after dev_set_net()
and moving the device between their dev_unreg_head lists.
Since dev_set_net() and unregister_netdevice_queue_net() are
synchronised by netdev_lock(), the device is either queued to the
old netns's dev_unreg_head and then moved, or queued directly to
the new netns.
Note that unregister_netdevice_move_net() does not need to call
rtnl_net_queue_work() because __dev_change_net_namespace() is
(supposed to be) called with rtnl_net_lock(). (Not all callers
hold it yet, but the race does not happen until all callers
are converted and RTNL is removed.)

Currently, netdev_run_todo() processes pending devices from multiple
namespaces in a batch.
To expand the per-netns RTNL coverage for NETDEV_UNREGISTER, let's
acquire __rtnl_net_lock() in netdev_wait_allrefs_any().
Note that netdev_run_todo() itself will need to be namespacified
before RTNL is removed.

The biggest blocker to per-netns RTNL is netdev unregistration.
It starts within a single netns (e.g., during a device lookup or
netns dismantle), but it can eventually involve multiple namespaces,
such as when upper ipvlan devices reside in different netns.
This prevents us from acquiring multiple rtnl_net_lock()s beforehand.
When we encounter such a cross-netns device, we must delegate the
unregistration to the work of the netns where the device actually
resides.
Let's add per-netns rtnl_work to support the deferred netdev
unregistration.

When rtnl_link_unregister() is called during module unload, it
calls __rtnl_kill_links() for every netns.
__rtnl_kill_links() collects all devices of the unloaded module
and passes them to unregister_netdevice_many().
Let's move unregister_netdevice_many() to rtnl_link_unregister()
to unregister all devices across netns in a single batch.

held in rtnl_newlink().
When either of IFLA_NET_NS_PID / IFLA_NET_NS_FD / IFLA_TARGET_NETNSID
is specified but IFLA_LINK_NETNSID is not, sock_net(skb->sk) is used

macsec_encrypt() reads the Ethernet header via eth_hdr(skb)
(skb->head + skb->mac_header) to memmove() the 12 source/destination MAC
bytes forward and make room for the SecTAG.
On the AF_PACKET SOCK_RAW + PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS transmit path the skb
reaches the macsec ndo_start_xmit() with the MAC header unset, so
eth_hdr(skb) resolves to skb->head + (u16)~0 and the read is out of
bounds: a 12-byte heap over-read that is also emitted on the wire as the
frame's outer source/destination MAC. KASAN reports a slab-out-of-bounds
read in macsec_start_xmit() on 6.0; on current mainline a CONFIG_DEBUG_NET
build flags it as an unset mac header in skb_mac_header().
On the TX path the L2 header is at skb->data, so use skb_eth_hdr(), added
by commit 96cc4b6958 ("macvlan: do not assume mac_header is set in
macvlan_broadcast()") for exactly this purpose.

The loopback move_data() performs a memcpy into the registered DMB
without checking whether offset + size exceeds the DMB length. Unlike
real ISM hardware, which enforces memory region bounds natively, the
software loopback has no such protection.
A peer-supplied out-of-bounds offset or oversized write would result in
an OOB write past the allocated kernel buffer. Add an explicit bounds
check before the memcpy to reject such requests with -EINVAL.

Florian Westphal says:
====================
netfilter: updates for net
The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for *net*.
Most of these are LLM fixes for old issues flagged by sashiko/LLMs.
Many of these trigger drive-by-findings in sashiko. In particular:
- many load/store tearing and missing memory barriers, races
etc. in ipset, esp. with GC and resizing.
Keeping the proposed patches spinning for yet-another-iteration
keeps legit fixes back, so I prefer to add these now and follow
up with other reports later.
- flowtable work queue still has possible races with teardown,
but same rationale as with ipset: drive-by findings, not
problems coming with the flowtable IPIP changeset in this PR.
- ever since unreadable frag skb support was added in 6.12, we can no
longer do: BUG_ON(skb_copy_bits( ...): it will fire with such skbs.
Mina Almasry is looking at similar patterns elsewhere in the stack.
1) Guard skb->mac_header adjustment after IPv6 defragmentation in
nf_conntrack_reasm. From Xiang Mei.
2) NUL-terminate ebtables table names before calling find_table_lock() to
prevent stack-out-of-bounds reads. Also from Xiang Mei.
3) Zero the ebtables chainstack array, else error unwind may free bogus
pointer when CPU mask is sparse. All three issues date from 2.6 days.
4) Ensure ebtables module names are c-strings, same bug pattern as 2).
Bug added in 4.6.
5) Fix catchall element handling for inverted lookups in nft_lookup. Fold the
catchall lookup into ext before computing the match status. Was like
this ever since catchall elements got introduced in 5.13.
From Tamaki Yanagawa.
6-9) ipset updates from Jozsef Kadlecsik:
- mark rcu protected areas correctly
- address gc and resize clash in the comment extension
- add/del backlog cleanup in the error path
- allocate right size for the generic hash structure
10-12): IPIP flowtable updates from Pablo Neira Ayuso:
- Use the current direction's route when pushing IPIP headers
Fix incorrect headroom and fragmentation offset calculations.
- Avoid hardware offload for IPIP tunnels due to lack of driver support.
- Support IPIP tunnels with direct xmit in netfilter flowtable.
dst_cache and dst_cookie are moved outside the union to share route
state across flows. This is a followup to work done in 6.19 cycle.
13) Don't BUG() on skb_copy_bits error. Handle unreadable fragments by
either returning an error or restricting the copy operations to linear area,
This became an issue when unreable frag support was merged in 6.12.
14-16): IPVS updates from Yizhou Zhao:
- Pass parsed transport offset to IPVS state handlers.
update callback signatures.
- use correct transport header offset on state lookp in TCP.
As-is it was possible for ipv6 extension header data to be
treated as L4 header.
- same for SCTP. This was also broken since 2.6 days.
17) Ensure inner IP headers in ICMP errors are in the skb headroom after
stripping outer headers. Add more checks for the length of inner headers.
This was broken since 3.7 days.
From Julian Anastasov.

ETHTOOL_A_RSS_HFUNC and ETHTOOL_A_RSS_INPUT_XFRM are NLA_U32 attributes,
but ethnl_rss_set() and ethnl_rss_create_doit() parse them with
ethnl_update_u8(), which reads a single byte.
On little endian this happens to read the least significant byte and
works as long as the value fits in a byte. On big endian it reads the
most significant byte, so the requested value is parsed incorrectly.
The destination fields in struct ethtool_rxfh_param are u8, so the
attribute can't be read directly with ethnl_update_u32().
Cap the hfunc policy at U8_MAX so an out of range value is rejected
instead of being silently truncated into the u8 field, and add
ethnl_update_u8_u32() to read the full u32 and narrow it into the u8
destination.

MANA allocates RX buffers from page pool fragments when frag_count is
greater than 1. In that case the buffers remain DMA mapped by page pool
and the RX completion path does not call dma_unmap_single(). As a result,
the implicit sync-for-CPU normally performed by dma_unmap_single() is
missing before the packet data is passed to the networking stack.
This breaks RX on configurations which require explicit DMA syncing, for
example when booted with swiotlb=force.
Fix this by recording the page pool page and DMA sync offset when the RX
buffer is allocated, and syncing the received packet range for CPU access
before handing the RX buffer to the stack.

set_sctp_state() reads the SCTP chunk header again in order to drive the
IPVS SCTP state table. For IPv6 it computes the offset with
sizeof(struct ipv6hdr), while the surrounding IPVS code uses iph.len from
ip_vs_fill_iph_skb(), where ipv6_find_hdr() has already skipped
extension headers and found the real transport header.
This makes the state machine read from the wrong offset for IPv6 SCTP
packets that carry extension headers. For example, an INIT packet with an
8-byte destination options header can be scheduled correctly by
sctp_conn_schedule(), but set_sctp_state() reads the first byte of the
SCTP verification tag as a DATA chunk type. The connection then moves
from NONE to ESTABLISHED instead of INIT1, gets the longer established
timeout, and updates the active/inactive destination counters
incorrectly. This happens even though the SCTP handshake has not
completed.
Use the parsed transport offset passed down from ip_vs_set_state() for
the SCTP chunk-header lookup. For IPv4 and IPv6 packets without
extension headers this preserves the existing offset.

TCP state handling reparses the skb to find the TCP header. For IPv6 it
uses sizeof(struct ipv6hdr), while the surrounding IPVS code already
parsed the packet with ip_vs_fill_iph_skb() and has the real
transport-header offset in iph.len.
This makes TCP state handling look at the wrong bytes when an IPv6
packet carries extension headers. Use the parsed transport offset passed
down from ip_vs_set_state() when reading the TCP header.
For IPv4 and for IPv6 packets without extension headers, the passed
offset matches the previous value.
