Jamal Hadi Salim 3d05400186 net/sched: cls_flow: Dont expose folded kernel pointers
[ Upstream commit f294fc71c4 ]

The flow classifier falls back to addr_fold() for fields that are missing
from packet headers. In map mode, userspace controls mask, xor, rshift,
addend and divisor, and can observe the resulting classid through class
statistics. This allows a tc classifier in a user/network namespace to
recover the 32-bit folded value of skb->sk, skb_dst() or skb_nfct().

Align with standard kernel practices for pointer hashing and replace the
XOR folding with a keyed siphash (which is cryptographically secure)

Fixes: e5dfb81518 ("[NET_SCHED]: Add flow classifier")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
