ipvs: Fix estimator kthreads preferred affinity

2025-08-13T06:34:33Z

The estimator kthreads' affinity are defined by sysctl overwritten preferences and applied through a plain call to the scheduler's affinity API. However since the introduction of managed kthreads preferred affinity, such a practice shortcuts the kthreads core code which eventually overwrites the target to the default unbound affinity. Fix this with using the appropriate kthread's API.

sctp: use skb_crc32c() instead of __skb_checksum()

2025-05-21T22:40:16Z

Make sctp_compute_cksum() just use the new function skb_crc32c(), instead of calling __skb_checksum() with a skb_checksum_ops struct that does CRC32C. This is faster and simpler.

ipvs: fix uninit-value for saddr in do_output_route4

2025-05-07T21:57:24Z

syzbot reports for uninit-value for the saddr argument [1]. commit 4754957f04f5 ("ipvs: do not use random local source address for tunnels") already implies that the input value of saddr should be ignored but the code is still reading it which can prevent to connect the route. Fix it by changing the argument to ret_saddr.

ipvs: prevent integer overflow in do_ip_vs_get_ctl()

2025-03-12T14:48:26Z

The get->num_services variable is an unsigned int which is controlled by the user. The struct_size() function ensures that the size calculation does not overflow an unsigned long, however, we are saving the result to an int so the calculation can overflow. Both "len" and "get->num_services" come from the user. This check is just a sanity check to help the user and ensure they are using the API correctly. An integer overflow here is not a big deal. This has no security impact. Save the result from struct_size() type size_t to fix this integer overflow bug.
