Issue description and patch: IPSTATS_MIB_OUTPKTS("OutRequests") is counted with IPSTATS_MIB_OUTOCTETS ("OutOctets") in ip_finish_output2(). According to RFC 4293, it is "OutOctets" counted with "OutTransmits" but not "OutRequests". "OutRequests" does not include any datagrams counted in "ForwDatagrams". ipSystemStatsOutOctets OBJECT-TYPE DESCRIPTION "The total number of octets in IP datagrams delivered to the lower layers for transmission. Octets from datagrams counted in ipIfStatsOutTransmits MUST be counted here. ipSystemStatsOutRequests OBJECT-TYPE DESCRIPTION "The total number of IP datagrams that local IP user- protocols (including ICMP) supplied to IP in requests for transmission. Note that this counter does not include any datagrams counted in ipSystemStatsOutForwDatagrams. So do patch to define IPSTATS_MIB_OUTPKTS to "OutTransmits" and add IPSTATS_MIB_OUTREQUESTS for "OutRequests". Add IPSTATS_MIB_OUTREQUESTS counter in __ip_local_out() for ipv4 and add IPSTATS_MIB_OUT counter in ip6_finish_output2() for ipv6.

ipv6: lockless IPV6_MULTICAST_LOOP implementation

2023-09-15T09:33:46Z

Add inet6_{test|set|clear|assign}_bit() helpers. Note that I am using bits from inet->inet_flags, this might change in the future if we need more flags. While solving data-races accessing np->mc_loop, this patch also allows to implement lockless accesses to np->mcast_hops in the following patch. Also constify sk_mc_loop() argument.

ipv6: adjust ndisc_is_useropt() to also return true for PIO

2023-08-09T22:36:12Z

The upcoming (and nearly finalized): https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-collink-6man-pio-pflag/ will update the IPv6 RA to include a new flag in the PIO field, which will serve as a hint to perform DHCPv6-PD. As we don't want DHCPv6 related logic inside the kernel, this piece of information needs to be exposed to userspace. The simplest option is to simply expose the entire PIO through the already existing mechanism. Even without this new flag, the already existing PIO R (router address) flag (from RFC6275) cannot AFAICT be handled entirely in kernel, and provides useful information that should be exposed to userspace (the router's global address, for use by Mobile IPv6). Also cc'ing stable@ for inclusion in LTS, as while technically this is not quite a bugfix, and instead more of a feature, it is absolutely trivial and the alternative is manually cherrypicking into all Android Common Kernel trees - and I know Greg will ask for it to be sent in via LTS instead...

net: change accept_ra_min_rtr_lft to affect all RA lifetimes

2023-07-28T20:30:51Z

accept_ra_min_rtr_lft only considered the lifetime of the default route and discarded entire RAs accordingly. This change renames accept_ra_min_rtr_lft to accept_ra_min_lft, and applies the value to individual RA sections; in particular, router lifetime, PIO preferred lifetime, and RIO lifetime. If any of those lifetimes are lower than the configured value, the specific RA section is ignored. In order for the sysctl to be useful to Android, it should really apply to all lifetimes in the RA, since that is what determines the minimum frequency at which RAs must be processed by the kernel. Android uses hardware offloads to drop RAs for a fraction of the minimum of all lifetimes present in the RA (some networks have very frequent RAs (5s) with high lifetimes (2h)). Despite this, we have encountered networks that set the router lifetime to 30s which results in very frequent CPU wakeups. Instead of disabling IPv6 (and dropping IPv6 ethertype in the WiFi firmware) entirely on such networks, it seems better to ignore the misconfigured routers while still processing RAs from other IPv6 routers on the same network (i.e. to support IoT applications). The previous implementation dropped the entire RA based on router lifetime. This turned out to be hard to expand to the other lifetimes present in the RA in a consistent manner; dropping the entire RA based on RIO/PIO lifetimes would essentially require parsing the whole thing twice.

net: add sysctl accept_ra_min_rtr_lft

2023-07-23T10:51:24Z

This change adds a new sysctl accept_ra_min_rtr_lft to specify the minimum acceptable router lifetime in an RA. If the received RA router lifetime is less than the configured value (and not 0), the RA is ignored. This is useful for mobile devices, whose battery life can be impacted by networks that configure RAs with a short lifetime. On such networks, the device should never gain IPv6 provisioning and should attempt to drop RAs via hardware offload, if available.
