netfilter: nft_exthdr: fix endianness of tcp option cast
stable inclusion from linux-4.19.205 commit 991158d680774ca5010fe6e15aa3a61aebfdf688 -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit 2e34328b ] I got a problem on MIPS with Big-Endian is turned on: every time when NF trying to change TCP MSS it returns because of new.v16 was greater than old.v16. But real MSS was 1460 and my rule was like this: add rule table chain tcp option maxseg size set 1400 And 1400 is lesser that 1460, not greater. Later I founded that main causer is cast from u32 to __be16. Debugging: In example MSS = 1400(HEX: 0x578). Here is representation of each byte like it is in memory by addresses from left to right(e.g. [0x0 0x1 0x2 0x3]). LE — Little-Endian system, BE — Big-Endian, left column is type. LE BE u32: [78 05 00 00] [00 00 05 78] As you can see, u32 representation will be casted to u16 from different half of 4-byte address range. But actually nf_tables uses registers and store data of various size. Actually TCP MSS stored in 2 bytes. But registers are still u32 in definition: struct nft_regs { union { u32 data[20]; struct nft_verdict verdict; }; }; So, access like regs->data[priv->sreg] exactly u32. So, according to table presents above, per-byte representation of stored TCP MSS in register will be: LE BE (u32)regs->data[]: [78 05 00 00] [05 78 00 00] ^^ ^^ We see that register uses just half of u32 and other 2 bytes may be used for some another data. But in nft_exthdr_tcp_set_eval() it casted just like u32 -> __be16: new.v16 = src But u32 overfill __be16, so it get 2 low bytes. For clarity draw one more table(<xx xx> means that bytes will be used for cast). LE BE u32: [<78 05> 00 00] [00 00 <05 78>] (u32)regs->data[]: [<78 05> 00 00] [05 78 <00 00>] As you can see, for Little-Endian nothing changes, but for Big-endian we take the wrong half. In my case there is some other data instead of zeros, so new MSS was wrongly greater. For shooting this bug I used solution for ports ranges. Applying of this patch does not affect Little-Endian systems.
