f38f8cce2f xfrm: policy: preallocate inexact bins before xfrm_hash_rebuild reinsert
xfrm_hash_rebuild()'s first loop preallocates the bins/chains the reinsert
loop needs, so the reinsert (after hlist_del_rcu()) cannot allocate or
fail. But its guard is inverted: it skips policies with prefixlen <
threshold and preallocates for the rest.

prefixlen < threshold is exactly when policy_hash_bysel() returns NULL and
the reinsert takes the allocating xfrm_policy_inexact_insert() path. So the
loop preallocates for the exact policies (which never allocate) and skips
the inexact ones, whose bin/node is then allocated GFP_ATOMIC during
reinsert. On failure the error path only WARN_ONCE()s and continues,
leaving a poisoned bydst node; the next rebuild's hlist_del_rcu()
dereferences LIST_POISON2 and takes a GPF. Reachable under memory pressure,
deterministic via failslab.

Invert the guard so preallocation covers exactly the reinserted policies;
the reinsert then allocates nothing and cannot fail.

Crash:

430ea57d6d xfrm: iptfs: propagate SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG in iptfs_skb_add_frags()
When iptfs_skb_add_frags() copies frag references from the source
frag walk into a new SKB, it increments the page reference count via
__skb_frag_ref() but does not propagate SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG to the
destination SKB's skb_shinfo->flags.

If the source SKB carries shared frags (e.g. from a page-pool backed
receive path), the new inner SKB will appear to ESP as having privately
owned frags.  A subsequent esp_input() call for a nested transport-mode
SA then takes the no-COW fast path and decrypts in place, writing over
pages that are still referenced by the outer IPTFS SKB.  This causes
kernel-visible memory corruption and can trigger a panic.

All other frag-transfer helpers in the kernel (skb_try_coalesce,
skb_gro_receive, __pskb_copy_fclone, skb_shift, skb_segment) correctly
propagate SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG; align iptfs_skb_add_frags() with this
convention by setting the flag inside the loop immediately after
__skb_frag_ref() and nr_frags++, so every exit path that attaches a frag
unconditionally propagates SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG.

2538bd3cd1 xfrm: clear mode callbacks after failed mode setup
xfrm_state_gc_task can run long after a failed IPTFS state setup. In the
reproduced case, __xfrm_init_state() cached x->mode_cbs, IPTFS setup
returned -ENOMEM before publishing mode_data, and the temporary module
reference from xfrm_get_mode_cbs() was dropped immediately. The dead state
then kept x->mode_cbs until deferred GC ran after xfrm_iptfs had been
unloaded.

Clear x->mode_cbs when mode init or clone fails before publishing
mode_data. Those states never installed mode-specific state or the
long-term IPTFS module pin, so deferred GC has nothing mode-specific to
destroy and must not retain a callback table pointer past the temporary
lookup reference.

The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the order
within that path:

failed setup path:
1. cache x->mode_cbs
2. mode setup fails before mode_data
3. drop the temporary module ref
4. dead state keeps x->mode_cbs cached

GC/unload path:
1. xfrm_state_put() queues GC work
2. xfrm_iptfs unloads later
3. xfrm_state_gc_task runs
4. GC dereferences stale x->mode_cbs

This also covers the failed clone path where clone_state() returns before
publishing mode_data.

ea528f1823 xfrm: reject optional IPTFS templates in outbound policies
syzbot reported a stack-out-of-bounds read in xfrm_state_find()
which flows from xfrm_tmpl_resolve_one().

Commit 3d776e31c8 ("xfrm: Reject optional tunnel/BEET mode
templates in outbound policies") disallowed optional tunnel and
BEET in outbound policies to prevent this. Later when IPTFS
added, it was not covered by that fix and can still trigger
the out-of-bounds read;

Extend the check to disallow optional IPTFS in outbound policies
as well. IPTFS should be identical to tunnel mode.
IN and FWD policies are not affected: xfrm_tmpl_resolve_one()
is only reachable via the outbound path.

Reproducer, before:

c4a5f0071c xfrm: cache the offload ifindex for netlink dumps
copy_to_user_state_extra() only holds a reference to the outer xfrm_state.
That does not pin x->xso.dev. NETDEV_DOWN and NETDEV_UNREGISTER can race
through xfrm_dev_state_flush(), xfrm_state_delete(), and
xfrm_dev_state_free(), which clears xso->dev and drops the netdev
reference before the GETSA dump reaches xso_to_xuo() and reads
xso->dev->ifindex.

The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the order
within that path:

XFRM_MSG_GETSA dump path:           NETDEV teardown path:
1. xfrm_get_sa() gets xfrm_state    1. xfrm_dev_state_flush() finds x
2. copy_to_user_state_extra() sees  2. xfrm_state_delete() removes x
   x->xso.dev                          from the SAD
3. copy_user_offload() calls        3. xfrm_dev_state_free() clears
   xso_to_xuo()                        xso->dev
4. xso->dev->ifindex dereferences   4. netdev_put() drops the device
   a detached net_device               reference

Avoid following the live net_device from the dump paths. Cache the
attached ifindex in xfrm_dev_offload when state or policy offload is bound
to a device, and serialize that snapshot instead. This preserves the
user-visible XFRMA_OFFLOAD_DEV value without depending on the embedded
net_device lifetime.

c283e9ada7 xfrm: fix sk_dst_cache double-free in xfrm_user_policy()
xfrm_user_policy() clears the socket dst cache with __sk_dst_reset(),
i.e. the non-atomic __sk_dst_set(sk, NULL): it reads sk_dst_cache with
rcu_dereference_protected(), stores NULL and dst_release()s the old dst.
That is only safe if no other thread modifies sk_dst_cache concurrently.

For a connected UDP socket that does not hold: the transmit fast path
(udp_sendmsg -> sk_dst_check -> sk_dst_reset) resets the cache locklessly
with an atomic xchg(). A per-socket policy change racing a send can make
both sides observe the same old dst and each dst_release() it, dropping
the socket's single reference twice and freeing the xfrm_dst bundle while
it is still referenced:

  BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in dst_release

Reachable by an unprivileged user via a user+network namespace.

Use the atomic sk_dst_reset() so the cache is cleared and released with a
single xchg(): whichever side wins releases the dst once, the other sees
NULL and does nothing. Behaviour is otherwise unchanged.

226f4a490d xfrm: nat_keepalive: avoid double free on send error
nat_keepalive_send() frees the keepalive skb whenever the IPv4 or IPv6
send helper reports an error.

That cleanup is only correct before the skb is handed to the output
path. Once ip_build_and_send_pkt() or ip6_xmit() takes ownership, the
networking stack may already have consumed the skb before returning an
error, so freeing it again is unsafe.

Handle the pre-handoff failure cases inside nat_keepalive_send_ipv4()
and nat_keepalive_send_ipv6(), where the caller still owns the skb, and
keep nat_keepalive_send() responsible only for family dispatch and the
unsupported-family cleanup path.

3f4c3919ba xfrm: fix stale skb->prev after async crypto steals a GSO segment
skb_gso_segment() leaves the segment list head with ->prev pointing at
the last segment, an invariant validate_xmit_skb_list() relies on when
it sets its tail pointer (tail = skb->prev).

When validate_xmit_xfrm() walks a GSO list and some segments are stolen
by async crypto (->xmit() returns -EINPROGRESS), those segments are
unlinked from the list but the head ->prev is never updated.  If the
last segment is the one stolen, the returned head still has ->prev
pointing at it, even though it is now owned by the crypto engine and may
be freed.  validate_xmit_skb_list() later does tail->next = skb, writing
through that stale pointer -- a use-after-free.

Repoint skb->prev at the last retained segment before returning.

6860b467f5 xfrm: propagate -EINPROGRESS from validate_xmit_xfrm()
validate_xmit_xfrm() returns NULL both when a packet is dropped and
when it is stolen by async crypto (-EINPROGRESS from ->xmit()).
Callers cannot distinguish the two cases.

f53c723902 ("net: Add asynchronous callbacks for xfrm on layer 2.")
changed the semantics of a NULL return from "dropped" to "stolen or
dropped", but __dev_queue_xmit() was not updated.  On virtual/bridge
interfaces (noqueue qdisc) __dev_queue_xmit() initialises rc=-ENOMEM
and jumps to out: when skb is NULL, returning -ENOMEM to the caller
even though the packet will be delivered correctly via xfrm_dev_resume().

Return ERR_PTR(-EINPROGRESS) from validate_xmit_xfrm() for the async
case so callers can tell it apart from a real drop.  Update
__dev_queue_xmit() to handle ERR_PTR(-EINPROGRESS) from
validate_xmit_skb() correctly.  Update validate_xmit_skb_list() to
use IS_ERR_OR_NULL() so that ERR_PTR(-EINPROGRESS) is not mistakenly
added to the transmitted list.

changelink path checks CAP_NET_ADMIN only against dev_net(dev), so a
caller privileged there but not in xi->net can rewrite an interface that

ddd3d01329 xfrm: Fix xfrm state cache insertion race
The xfrm input state cache insertion code checks the validity of
the state before acquiring the global xfrm_state_lock.  Thus it's
possible for someone else to kill the state after it passed the
validity check, and then the insertion will add the dead state
to the cache.

Fix this by moving the validity check inside the lock.

This entire function is called on the input path, where BH must
be off (e.g., the caller of this function xfrm_input acquires
its spinlocks without disabling BH).

So there is no need to disable BH here or take the RCU read lock.
Remove both and replace them with an assertion that trips if BH
is accidentally enabled on some future calling path.

355fbcbdc2 xfrm: use compat translator only for u64 alignment mismatch
The XFRM compat layer (CONFIG_XFRM_USER_COMPAT) translates 32-bit xfrm
netlink and setsockopt messages into the native 64-bit layout. It is
only needed on architectures where the 32-bit and 64-bit ABIs disagree
on u64 alignment, which the kernel encodes as COMPAT_FOR_U64_ALIGNMENT.

That symbol is defined only by arch/x86. XFRM_USER_COMPAT depends on it,
so the translator can never be built on any other architecture,
including arm64, which still provides a 32-bit compat ABI (CONFIG_COMPAT)
for AArch32 EL0 userspace. On arm64 the AArch32 EABI already aligns u64
to 8 bytes, identical to the AArch64 ABI, so no translation is required
and the native code path is correct for 32-bit tasks.

However, xfrm_user_rcv_msg() and xfrm_user_policy() gate on
in_compat_syscall() alone and then call xfrm_get_translator(), which
returns NULL when no translator is registered. On arm64 that is always
the case, so every xfrm netlink message and the XFRM_POLICY setsockopt
issued by a 32-bit task returns -EOPNOTSUPP. A 32-bit userspace process
on arm64 (and on any other arch with CONFIG_COMPAT but without
COMPAT_FOR_U64_ALIGNMENT) therefore cannot configure XFRM state or
policy through the XFRM_USER netlink API, and cannot use the XFRM_POLICY
setsockopt path, because both fail before reaching the native parser.

The translator series replaced the blanket compat rejection with a
translator lookup. That made the path usable on x86 when the translator
is available, but left architectures that cannot build the translator
permanently rejected even when their compat layout already matches the
native layout. Let those architectures use the native parser instead.

Gate the translator requirement on COMPAT_FOR_U64_ALIGNMENT instead of
on in_compat_syscall() alone. Gating on the ABI property rather than on
CONFIG_XFRM_USER_COMPAT is deliberate: on x86 with IA32_EMULATION=y but
XFRM_USER_COMPAT=n, a 32-bit task must still be rejected rather than
routed through the native parser, which would misread genuinely
4-byte-aligned x86-32 messages. COMPAT_FOR_U64_ALIGNMENT is the ABI
property that makes the XFRM translator mandatory.

Only the receive/input direction needs the guard. The send, dump and
notification paths already call the translator as "if (xtr) { ... }"
with no error on NULL, so on arches without a translator they no-op and
the kernel emits native 64-bit-layout messages, which is what an AArch32
task expects.

Tested on Juniper SRX hardware: with the fix, 32-bit IPsec userspace
netlink and XFRM_POLICY setsockopt operations that previously failed
with -EOPNOTSUPP now succeed; x86 behaviour is unchanged by inspection.

c381039ade xfrm: espintcp: do not reuse an in-progress partial send
espintcp keeps a single in-flight transmit in ctx->partial.
Before building a new sk_msg, espintcp_sendmsg() first tries to flush
that state through espintcp_push_msgs().

For blocking callers, espintcp_push_msgs() may return success even when
the previous partial send is still pending. espintcp_sendmsg() would
then reinitialize emsg->skmsg and reuse ctx->partial while the old
transfer still owns that state.

Do not rebuild the send message when ctx->partial is still in progress.
If espintcp_push_msgs() returns with emsg->len still set, fail the new
send instead of overwriting the live partial state.

This is a memory-safety fix: reusing the live partial-send state can
leave a stale offset attached to a new sk_msg and lead to an out-of-

c8a8a75b73 xfrm: iptfs: fix ABBA deadlock in iptfs_destroy_state()
iptfs_destroy_state() calls hrtimer_cancel() while holding a spinlock
that the timer callback also acquires, leading to an ABBA deadlock on
SMP systems.

For the output timer (iptfs_timer):
  - iptfs_destroy_state() holds x->lock, calls hrtimer_cancel()
  - iptfs_delay_timer() callback takes x->lock

For the drop timer (drop_timer):
  - iptfs_destroy_state() holds drop_lock, calls hrtimer_cancel()
  - iptfs_drop_timer() callback takes drop_lock

Both timers use HRTIMER_MODE_REL_SOFT, so their callbacks run in softirq
context.  When hrtimer_cancel() is called for a soft timer that is
currently executing on another CPU, hrtimer_cancel_wait_running() spins
on softirq_expiry_lock -- the same lock held by the softirq running the
callback.  If the callback is blocked waiting for the spinlock held by
the caller of hrtimer_cancel(), a circular dependency forms:

  CPU 0: holds lock_A -> waits for softirq_expiry_lock
  CPU 1: holds softirq_expiry_lock -> waits for lock_A

Fix by calling hrtimer_cancel() before acquiring the respective locks.
hrtimer_cancel() is safe to call without holding any lock and will wait
for any in-progress callback to complete.  For the output timer, the
lock is still acquired afterwards to drain the packet queue.  For the
drop timer, the lock/unlock pair is removed entirely since it only
existed to serialize with the timer callback, which hrtimer_cancel()
already guarantees.

Found by source code audit.

Both fields are only meaningful when UDP encapsulation (NAT-T) is in

eb48730bb8 xfrm: iptfs: fix use-after-free on first_skb in __input_process_payload
__input_process_payload() stores first_skb into xtfs->ra_newskb under
drop_lock when starting partial reassembly, then unlocks and breaks out
of the processing loop. The post-loop check reads xtfs->ra_newskb
without the lock to decide whether first_skb is still owned:

    if (first_skb && first_iplen && !defer && first_skb != xtfs->ra_newskb)

Between spin_unlock and this read, a concurrent CPU running
iptfs_reassem_cont() (or the drop_timer hrtimer) can complete
reassembly, NULL xtfs->ra_newskb, and free the skb. The check then
evaluates first_skb != NULL as true, and pskb_trim/ip_summed/consume_skb
operate on the freed skb — a use-after-free in skbuff_head_cache.

Replace the unlocked read with a local bool that records whether
first_skb was handed to the reassembly state in the current call. The
flag is set after the existing spin_unlock, before the break, using the
pointer equality that is stable at that point (first_skb == skb iff
first_skb was stored in ra_newskb).

3e52417318 xfrm: move policy_bydst RCU sync from per-netns .exit to .pre_exit
The struct pernet_operations docstring in include/net/net_namespace.h
explicitly warns against blocking RCU primitives in .exit handlers:

    Exit methods using blocking RCU primitives, such as
    synchronize_rcu(), should be implemented via exit_batch.
    [...]
    Please, avoid synchronize_rcu() at all, where it's possible.

    Note that a combination of pre_exit() and exit() can
    be used, since a synchronize_rcu() is guaranteed between
    the calls.

xfrm_policy_fini() violates this: it calls synchronize_rcu() before
freeing the policy_bydst hash tables (so no RCU reader is mid-
traversal at free time), but runs from xfrm_net_ops.exit -- once per
namespace -- so a cleanup_net() of N namespaces pays N full RCU
grace periods serially.

Use the documented pre_exit/exit split. Move the policy flush (and
the workqueue drains it depends on) into a new .pre_exit handler;
xfrm_policy_fini() then runs in .exit and frees the hash tables
after the synchronize_rcu_expedited() that cleanup_net() guarantees
between the two phases. Providing O(1) RCU grace periods per batch
instead of O(N).

Observed on Linux 6.18 with a workload doing unshare(CLONE_NEWNET)

7f83d17407 xfrm: iptfs: reset runtime state when cloning SAs
iptfs_clone_state() clones the IPTFS mode data with kmemdup(). This
copies runtime objects which must not be shared with the original SA,
including the embedded sk_buff_head, hrtimers, spinlock, and in-flight
reassembly/reorder state.

If xfrm_state_migrate() fails after clone_state() but before the later
init_state() call has reinitialized those fields, the cloned state can be
destroyed by xfrm_state_gc_task() with list and timer state copied from the
original SA. With queued packets this lets the clone splice and free skbs
owned by the original IPTFS queue, leading to use-after-free and
double-free reports in iptfs_destroy_state() and skb release paths.

Reinitialize the clone's runtime state before publishing it through
x->mode_data. Because clone_state() now publishes a destroyable mode_data
object before init_state(), take the mode callback module reference there.
Avoid taking it again from __iptfs_init_state() for the same object.

Leo Lin reported OOB write issue in esp component:

  xfrm_state_mtu() returns u32 but performs its arithmetic in unsigned
  modulo-2^32 space using an attacker-influenced "header_len + authsize +
  net_adj" subtracted from a small "mtu" argument. A nobody user can
  install an IPv4 ESP tunnel SA with a large authentication key
  (XFRMA_ALG_AUTH_TRUNC, e.g. hmac(sha512), 64-byte key, 64-byte trunc),
  configure a small interface MTU (68 bytes), and set XFRMA_TFCPAD to a
  large value. When a single UDP datagram is then sent through the
  tunnel, xfrm_state_mtu() underflows to a near-2^32 value, and
  esp_output() consumes it as a signed int via:

        padto      = min(x->tfcpad, xfrm_state_mtu(x, mtu_cached))
        esp.tfclen = padto - skb->len   (assigned to int)

  esp.tfclen ends up negative (e.g. -207). It is sign-extended to size_t
  when passed to memset() inside esp_output_fill_trailer(), producing a
  ~16 EB write of zeroes at skb_tail_pointer(skb). KASAN logs it as
  "Write of size 18446744073709551537 at addr ffff888...".

Check for underflow and return 1. This causes the sendmsg attempt to

7e2a4f7ca0 xfrm: route MIGRATE notifications to caller's netns
xfrm_send_migrate() in net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c and pfkey_send_migrate()
in net/key/af_key.c both hardcode &init_net for the multicast that
announces a successful XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE / SADB_X_MIGRATE.

XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE arrives on a per-netns NETLINK_XFRM socket, and the
rest of the xfrm/af_key netlink path was made netns-aware in 2008.
The other 14 multicast paths in xfrm_user.c route their event using
xs_net(x), xp_net(xp) or sock_net(skb->sk); only the migrate path
was missed.

Two consequences of the init_net hardcoding:

  1. The notification (selector, old/new endpoint addresses, and the
     km_address) is delivered to listeners on init_net's
     XFRMNLGRP_MIGRATE / pfkey BROADCAST_ALL groups rather than on
     the issuing netns. An IKE daemon running in init_net therefore
     receives migration notifications originating from any other
     netns on the host.

  2. An IKE daemon running inside a non-init netns and subscribed
     to its own XFRMNLGRP_MIGRATE / pfkey groups never receives the
     notification of its own migration. IKEv2 MOBIKE / address-update
     handling inside a netns is silently broken.

Thread struct net through km_migrate() and the xfrm_mgr.migrate
function pointer, drop the &init_net override in xfrm_send_migrate()
and pfkey_send_migrate(), and pass the caller's net (already in
scope in xfrm_migrate() via sock_net(skb->sk)) all the way down.
struct xfrm_mgr is in-tree only and not exported as a stable API,
so the function-pointer signature change is internal.

pfkey_broadcast() is already netns-aware via net_generic(net,
pfkey_net_id) since the pernet conversion. The five other
pfkey_broadcast() callers in af_key.c already pass xs_net(x),
sock_net(sk) or a per-netns net, so this only removes the
&init_net outlier.

14acf9652e xfrm: defensively unhash xfrm_state lists in __xfrm_state_delete
KASAN reproduces a slab-use-after-free in __xfrm_state_delete()'s
hlist_del_rcu calls under syzkaller load on linux-6.12.y stable
(reproduced on 6.12.47, also reachable via the same code path on
torvalds/master and on the ipsec tree). Nine unique signatures cluster
in the xfrm_state lifecycle, the load-bearing one being:

  BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __hlist_del include/linux/list.h:990 [inline]
  BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in hlist_del_rcu include/linux/rculist.h:516 [inline]
  BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __xfrm_state_delete net/xfrm/xfrm_state.c
  Write of size 8 at addr ffff8881198bcb70 by task kworker/u8:9/435

  Workqueue: netns cleanup_net
  Call Trace:
   __hlist_del / hlist_del_rcu
   __xfrm_state_delete
   xfrm_state_delete
   xfrm_state_flush
   xfrm_state_fini
   ops_exit_list
   cleanup_net

The other observed signatures hit the same slab object from
__xfrm_state_lookup, xfrm_alloc_spi, __xfrm_state_insert and an OOB
write variant of __xfrm_state_delete, all on the byseq/byspi
hash chains.

__xfrm_state_delete() guards its byseq and byspi unhashes with
value-based predicates:

	if (x->km.seq)
		hlist_del_rcu(&x->byseq);
	if (x->id.spi)
		hlist_del_rcu(&x->byspi);

while everywhere else in the file (e.g. state_cache, state_cache_input)
the safer hlist_unhashed() check is used. xfrm_alloc_spi() sets
x->id.spi = newspi inside xfrm_state_lock and then immediately inserts
into byspi, but a path that observes x->id.spi != 0 outside of
xfrm_state_lock can still skip-or-hit the byspi unhash inconsistently
with whether x is actually on the list. The same holds for x->km.seq
versus byseq, and the bydst/bysrc unhashes have no predicate at all,
so a second __xfrm_state_delete() on the same object writes through
LIST_POISON pprev.

The defensive change here:

  - Use hlist_del_init_rcu() instead of hlist_del_rcu() on bydst,
    bysrc, byseq and byspi so a second deletion is a no-op rather
    than a write through LIST_POISON pprev. The byseq/byspi nodes
    are already initialised in xfrm_state_alloc().
  - Test hlist_unhashed() rather than the value predicate for
    byseq/byspi, so the unhash decision tracks list state rather than
    mutable scalar fields.

Empirical verification: applied this patch on top of v6.12.47, rebuilt,
and re-ran the same syzkaller harness for 1h16m on a previously-crashy
configuration that produced ~100 hits each of slab-use-after-free
Read in xfrm_alloc_spi / Read in __xfrm_state_lookup / Write in
__xfrm_state_delete. After the patch, 7.1M execs across 32 VMs at
~1550 exec/sec produced zero xfrm_state UAF/OOB hits. /proc/slabinfo
confirms the xfrm_state slab is actively allocated and freed during
the run (~143 KiB resident), so the fuzzer is still exercising those
code paths -- they just no longer crash.

Reproduction:

  - Linux 6.12.47 x86_64 + KASAN_GENERIC + KASAN_INLINE + KCOV
  - syzkaller @ 746545b8b1e4c3a128db8652b340d3df90ce61db
  - 32 QEMU/KVM VMs x 2 vCPU on AWS c5.metal bare metal
  - 9 unique signatures collected in ~9h, all within xfrm_state
    lifecycle

a77d172177 xfrm: cleanup error path in xfrm_add_policy()
Replace the open-coded manual cleanup in the error path of
xfrm_add_policy() with xfrm_policy_destroy(), which already
handles all the necessary cleanup internally. This is consistent
with how xfrm_policy_construct() handles its own error paths.

The walk.dead flag must be set before calling xfrm_policy_destroy()
as required by BUG_ON(!policy->walk.dead).

28465227c8 xfrm: provide message size for XFRM_MSG_MAPPING
The compat 64=>32 translation path handles XFRM_MSG_MAPPING, but
xfrm_msg_min[] does not provide the native payload size for this
message type.

Add the missing XFRM_MSG_MAPPING entry so compat translation can size
and translate mapping notifications correctly.

fa90a3145c xfrm: Don't clobber inner headers when already set
On VXLAN over IPsec egress, xfrm{4,6}_transport_output() blindly
overwrite inner_transport_header (== the inner TCP header saved in VXLAN
iptunnel_handle_offloads() -> skb_reset_inner_headers()) with the
current transport_header (== the VXLAN outer UDP header set by
udp_tunnel_xmit_skb()).

This was a latent bug, harmless until commit [1] added a doff validation
check in qdisc_pkt_len_segs_init() for encapsulated GSO packets. With
the wrong inner_transport_header set by xfrm, qdisc_pkt_len_segs_init()
interprets inner_transport_header as a TCP header, reads doff=0 from the
upper byte of the VNI and drops the packet with DROP_REASON_SKB_BAD_GSO.

Besides the use in GSO to determine the header size of segmented
packets, inner_transport_header might be used by drivers to set up
inner checksum offloading by pointing the HW to the inner transport
header. A quick browse through available drivers shows that mlx5 uses
skb->csum_start specifically for this scenario, while others either
don't support VXLAN over IPsec crypto offload (ixgbe) or the HW is
capable of parsing the packets itself (nfp, Chelsio).

But in all cases, it is more correct to let the inner_transport_header
point to the innermost header instead of overwriting it in xfrm.

So fix this by guarding all four inner header save sites in
xfrm_output.c (xfrm{4,6}_transport_output, xfrm{4,6}_tunnel_encap_add)
with a check for skb->inner_protocol. When inner_protocol is set, a
tunnel layer (VXLAN, Geneve, GRE, etc.) has already saved the correct
inner header offsets and they must not be overwritten. When
inner_protocol is zero, no prior tunnel encapsulation exists and xfrm
must save the inner headers itself. The tunnel mode checks are only
added for completion, since they aren't strictly required, as
xfrm_output() forces software GSO in tunnel mode before encap.

This makes the previously added test pass:
