This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled lwt: Fix return values of BPF xmit ops to the 6.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: lwt-fix-return-values-of-bpf-xmit-ops.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit c41c64dbe8f19aba2c791bb7dc275e53b7876ebd Author: Yan Zhai <yan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Aug 17 19:58:11 2023 -0700 lwt: Fix return values of BPF xmit ops [ Upstream commit 29b22badb7a84b783e3a4fffca16f7768fb31205 ] BPF encap ops can return different types of positive values, such like NET_RX_DROP, NET_XMIT_CN, NETDEV_TX_BUSY, and so on, from function skb_do_redirect and bpf_lwt_xmit_reroute. At the xmit hook, such return values would be treated implicitly as LWTUNNEL_XMIT_CONTINUE in ip(6)_finish_output2. When this happens, skbs that have been freed would continue to the neighbor subsystem, causing use-after-free bug and kernel crashes. To fix the incorrect behavior, skb_do_redirect return values can be simply discarded, the same as tc-egress behavior. On the other hand, bpf_lwt_xmit_reroute returns useful errors to local senders, e.g. PMTU information. Thus convert its return values to avoid the conflict with LWTUNNEL_XMIT_CONTINUE.
