In case we find a socket with encapsulation enabled we should call
the encap_recv function even if just a udp header without payload is
available. The callbacks are responsible for correctly verifying and
dropping the packets.
Also, in case the header validation fails for geneve and vxlan we
shouldn't put the skb back into the socket queue, no one will pick
them up there. Instead we can simply discard them in the respective
encap_recv functions.

When performing foo-over-UDP, UDP packets are processed by the
encapsulation handler which returns another protocol to process.
This may result in processing two (or more) protocols in the
loop that are marked as INET6_PROTO_FINAL. The actions taken
for hitting a final protocol, in particular the skb_postpull_rcsum
can only be performed once.
This patch set adds a check of a final protocol has been seen. The
rules are:
- If the final protocol has not been seen any protocol is processed
(final and non-final). In the case of a final protocol, the final
actions are taken (like the skb_postpull_rcsum)
- If a final protocol has been seen (e.g. an encapsulating UDP
header) then no further non-final protocols are allowed
(e.g. extension headers). For more final protocols the
final actions are not taken (e.g. skb_postpull_rcsum).

In ip6_input_finish the nexthdr protocol is retrieved from the
next header offset that is returned in the cb of the skb.
This method does not work for UDP encapsulation that may not
even have a concept of a nexthdr field (e.g. FOU).
This patch checks for a final protocol (INET6_PROTO_FINAL) when a
protocol handler returns > 0. If the protocol is not final then
resubmission is performed on nhoff value. If the protocol is final
then the nexthdr is taken to be the return value.

In several gso_segment functions there are checks of gso_type against
a seemingly arbitrary list of SKB_GSO_* flags. This seems like an
attempt to identify unsupported GSO types, but since the stack is
the one that set these GSO types in the first place this seems
unnecessary to do. If a combination isn't valid in the first
place that stack should not allow setting it.

tcp_hdr() is slightly more expensive than using skb->data in contexts
where we know they point to the same byte.
In receive path, tcp_v4_rcv() and tcp_v6_rcv() are in this situation,
as tcp header has not been pulled yet.
In output path, the same can be said when we just pushed the tcp header
in the skb, in tcp_transmit_skb() and tcp_make_synack()
Also factorize the two checks for tcb->tcp_flags & TCPHDR_SYN in
tcp_transmit_skb() and pass tcp header pointer to tcp_ecn_send(),
so that compiler can further optimize and avoid a reload.

Currently, when creating or updating a route, no check is performed
in both ipv4 and ipv6 code to the hoplimit value.
The caller can i.e. set hoplimit to 256, and when such route will
be used, packets will be sent with hoplimit/ttl equal to 0.
This commit adds checks for the RTAX_HOPLIMIT value, in both ipv4
ipv6 route code, substituting any value greater than 255 with 255.
This is consistent with what is currently done for ADVMSS and MTU

The following trace is seen when receiving a DHCP request over a flow-based
VXLAN tunnel. I believe this is caused by the metadata dst having a NULL
dev value and as a result dev_net(dev) is causing a NULL pointer dereference.
To resolve this I am replacing the check for skb_dst(skb)->dev with just
skb->dev. This makes sense as the callers of this function are usually in
the receive path and as such skb->dev should always be populated. In
addition other functions in the area where these are called are already
using dev_net(skb->dev) to determine the namespace the UDP packet belongs
in.

Currently the VRF driver uses the rx_handler to switch the skb device
to the VRF device. Switching the dev prior to the ip / ipv6 layer
means the VRF driver has to duplicate IP/IPv6 processing which adds
overhead and makes features such as retaining the ingress device index
more complicated than necessary.
This patch moves the hook to the L3 layer just after the first NF_HOOK
for PRE_ROUTING. This location makes exposing the original ingress device
trivial (next patch) and allows adding other NF_HOOKs to the VRF driver
in the future.
dev_queue_xmit_nit is exported so that the VRF driver can cycle the skb
with the switched device through the packet taps to maintain current
behavior (tcpdump can be used on either the vrf device or the enslaved
devices).

====================
Netfilter updates for net-next
The following large patchset contains Netfilter updates for your
net-next tree. My initial intention was to send you this in two goes but
when I looked back twice I already had this burden on top of me.
Several updates for IPVS from Marco Angaroni:
1) Allow SIP connections originating from real-servers to be load
balanced by the SIP persistence engine as is already implemented
in the other direction.
2) Release connections immediately for One-packet-scheduling (OPS)
in IPVS, instead of making it via timer and rcu callback.
3) Skip deleting conntracks for each one packet in OPS, and don't call
nf_conntrack_alter_reply() since no reply is expected.
4) Enable drop on exhaustion for OPS + SIP persistence.
Miscelaneous conntrack updates from Florian Westphal, including fix for
hash resize:
5) Move conntrack generation counter out of conntrack pernet structure
since this is only used by the init_ns to allow hash resizing.
6) Use get_random_once() from packet path to collect hash random seed
instead of our compound.
7) Don't disable BH from ____nf_conntrack_find() for statistics,
use NF_CT_STAT_INC_ATOMIC() instead.
8) Fix lookup race during conntrack hash resizing.
9) Introduce clash resolution on conntrack insertion for connectionless
protocol.
Then, Florian's netns rework to get rid of per-netns conntrack table,
thus we use one single table for them all. There was consensus on this
change during the NFWS 2015 and, on top of that, it has recently been
pointed as a source of multiple problems from unpriviledged netns:
11) Use a single conntrack hashtable for all namespaces. Include netns
in object comparisons and make it part of the hash calculation.
Adapt early_drop() to consider netns.
12) Use single expectation and NAT hashtable for all namespaces.
13) Use a single slab cache for all namespaces for conntrack objects.
14) Skip full table scanning from nf_ct_iterate_cleanup() if the pernet
conntrack counter tells us the table is empty (ie. equals zero).
Fixes for nf_tables interval set element handling, support to set
conntrack connlabels and allow set names up to 32 bytes.
15) Parse element flags from element deletion path and pass it up to the
backend set implementation.
16) Allow adjacent intervals in the rbtree set type for dynamic interval
updates.
17) Add support to set connlabel from nf_tables, from Florian Westphal.
18) Allow set names up to 32 bytes in nf_tables.
Several x_tables fixes and updates:
19) Fix incorrect use of IS_ERR_VALUE() in x_tables, original patch
from Andrzej Hajda.
And finally, miscelaneous netfilter updates such as:
20) Disable automatic helper assignment by default. Note this proc knob
was introduced by a900689264 ("netfilter: nf_ct_helper: allow to
disable automatic helper assignment") 4 years ago to start moving
towards explicit conntrack helper configuration via iptables CT
target.
21) Get rid of obsolete and inconsistent debugging instrumentation
in x_tables.
22) Remove unnecessary check for null after ip6_route_output().

and backlog queues can take lot of time.
Many SNMP updates were assuming that BH (and preemption) was disabled.
Need to convert some __NET_INC_STATS() calls to NET_INC_STATS()
and some __TCP_INC_STATS() to TCP_INC_STATS()
Before using this_cpu_ptr(net->ipv4.tcp_sk) in tcp_v4_send_reset()
and tcp_v4_send_ack(), we add an explicit preempt disabled section.

This is a forward-port of the original patch from Andrzej Hajda,
he said:
"IS_ERR_VALUE should be used only with unsigned long type.
Otherwise it can work incorrectly. To achieve this function
xt_percpu_counter_alloc is modified to return unsigned long,
and its result is assigned to temporary variable to perform
error checking, before assigning to .pcnt field.
The patch follows conclusion from discussion on LKML [1][2].
