Prior to this patch,
ovpn: reset GSO metadata after decapsulation
The ovpn_netdev_write() function is responsible for injecting decapsulated and decrypted packets back into the local network stack.
Prior to this patch, the skb could retain GSO metadata from the outer, encrypted tunnel packet. This original GSO metadata, relevant to the sender's transport context, becomes invalid and misleading for the tunnel/data path once the inner packet is exposed.
Leaving this stale metadata intact causes internal GSO validation checks further down the kernel's network stack (validate_xmit_skb()) to fail, leading to packet drops. The reasons for these failures vary by protocol, for example: - for ICMP, no offload handler is registered; - for TCP and UDP, the respective offload handlers return errors when comparing skb->len to the outdated skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_size.
By calling skb_gso_reset(skb) we ensure the inner packet is presented to gro_cells_receive() with a clean state, correctly indicating it is an individual packet from the perspective of the local stack.
This change eliminates the "Driver has suspect GRO implementation, TCP performance may be compromised" warning and improves overall TCP performance by allowing GSO/GRO to function as intended on the decapsulated traffic.

ovpn: reject unexpected netlink attributes
Netlink ops do not expect all attributes to be always set, however this condition is not explicitly coded any where, leading the user to believe that all sent attributes are somewhat processed.
Fix this behaviour by introducing explicit checks.
For CMD_OVPN_PEER_GET and CMD_OVPN_KEY_GET directly open-code the needed condition in the related ops handlers. While for all other ops use attribute subsets in the ovpn.yaml spec file.

Upon error along the TCP data_ready event path, we have the following chain of calls:

This happens because the peer deletion operation reaches ovpn_socket_release() while ovpn_sock->sock (struct socket *) and its sk member (struct sock *) are still both valid. Here synchronize_rcu() is invoked, after which ovpn_sock->sock->sk becomes NULL, due to the concurrent socket closing triggered from userspace.
After having invoked synchronize_rcu(), ovpn_socket_release() will attempt dereferencing ovpn_sock->sock->sk, triggering the crash reported above.
The reason for accessing sk is that we need to retrieve its protocol and continue the cleanup routine accordingly.
This crash can be easily produced by running openvpn userspace in client mode with `--keepalive 10 20`, while entirely omitting this option on the server side. After 20 seconds ovpn will assume the peer (server) to be dead, will start removing it and will notify userspace. The latter will receive the notification and close the transport socket, thus triggering the crash.
To fix the race condition for good, we need to refactor struct ovpn_socket. Since ovpn is always only interested in the sock->sk member (struct sock *) we can directly hold a reference to it, raher than accessing it via its struct socket container.
This means changing "struct socket *ovpn_socket->sock" to "struct sock *ovpn_socket->sk".
While acquiring a reference to sk, we can increase its refcounter without affecting the socket close()/destroy() notification (which we rely on when userspace closes a socket we are using).
By increasing sk's refcounter we know we can dereference it in ovpn_socket_release() without incurring in any race condition anymore.
ovpn_socket_release() will ultimately decrease the reference counter.

ovpn: fix check for skb_to_sgvec_nomark() return value
Depending on the data offset, skb_to_sgvec_nomark() may use less scatterlist elements than what was forecasted by the previous call to skb_cow_data().
It specifically happens when 'skbheadlen(skb) < offset', because in this case we entirely skip the skb's head, which would have required its own scatterlist element.
For this reason, it doesn't make sense to check that skb_to_sgvec_nomark() returns the same value as skb_cow_data(), but we can rather check for errors only, as it happens in other parts of the kernel.

ovpn: don't drop skb's dst when xmitting packet
When routing a packet to a LAN behind a peer, ovpn needs to inspect the route entry that brought the packet there in the first place.
If this packet is truly routable, the route entry provides the GW to be used when looking up the VPN peer to send the packet to.
However, the route entry is currently dropped before entering the ovpn xmit function, because the IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE priv_flag is enabled by default.
Clear the IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE flag during interface setup to allow the route entry (skb's dst) to survive and thus be inspected by the ovpn routing logic.

ovpn: kill key and notify userspace in case of IV exhaustion
IV wrap-around is cryptographically dangerous for a number of ciphers, therefore kill the key and inform userspace (via netlink) should the IV space go exhausted.
Userspace has two ways of deciding when the key has to be renewed before exhausting the IV space: 1) time based approach: after X seconds/minutes userspace generates a new key and sends it to the kernel. This is based on guestimate and normally default timer value works well.
2) packet count based approach: after X packets/bytes userspace generates a new key and sends it to the kernel. Userspace keeps track of the amount of traffic by periodically polling GET_PEER and fetching the VPN/LINK stats.

ovpn: implement peer lookup logic
In a multi-peer scenario there are a number of situations when a specific peer needs to be looked up.
We may want to lookup a peer by: 1. its ID 2. its VPN destination IP 3. its transport IP/port couple
For each of the above, there is a specific routing table referencing all peers for fast look up.
Case 2. is a bit special in the sense that an outgoing packet may not be sent to the peer VPN IP directly, but rather to a network behind it. For this reason we first perform a nexthop lookup in the system routing table and then we use the retrieved nexthop as peer search key.

With this change an ovpn instance will be able to stay connected to multiple remote endpoints.
This functionality is strictly required when running ovpn on an OpenVPN server.

ovpn: add support for MSG_NOSIGNAL in tcp_sendmsg
Userspace may want to pass the MSG_NOSIGNAL flag to tcp_sendmsg() in order to avoid generating a SIGPIPE.
To pass this flag down the TCP stack a new skb sending API accepting a flags argument is introduced.
