fceb6435e8 netlink: pass extended ACK struct to parsing functions
Pass the new extended ACK reporting struct to all of the generic
netlink parsing functions. For now, pass NULL in almost all callers
(except for some in the core.)

56989f6d85 genetlink: mark families as __ro_after_init
Now genl_register_family() is the only thing (other than the
users themselves, perhaps, but I didn't find any doing that)
writing to the family struct.

In all families that I found, genl_register_family() is only
called from __init functions (some indirectly, in which case
I've add __init annotations to clarifly things), so all can
actually be marked __ro_after_init.

This protects the data structure from accidental corruption.

489111e5c2 genetlink: statically initialize families
Instead of providing macros/inline functions to initialize
the families, make all users initialize them statically and
get rid of the macros.

This reduces the kernel code size by about 1.6k on x86-64
(with allyesconfig).

a07ea4d994 genetlink: no longer support using static family IDs
Static family IDs have never really been used, the only
use case was the workaround I introduced for those users
that assumed their family ID was also their multicast
group ID.

Additionally, because static family IDs would never be
reserved by the generic netlink code, using a relatively
low ID would only work for built-in families that can be
registered immediately after generic netlink is started,
which is basically only the control family (apart from
the workaround code, which I also had to add code for so
it would reserve those IDs)

Thus, anything other than GENL_ID_GENERATE is flawed and
luckily not used except in the cases I mentioned. Move
those workarounds into a few lines of code, and then get
rid of GENL_ID_GENERATE entirely, making it more robust.

c90c39dab3 genetlink: introduce and use genl_family_attrbuf()
This helper function allows family implementations to access
their family's attrbuf. This gets rid of the attrbuf usage
in families, and also adds locking validation, since it's not
valid to use the attrbuf with parallel_ops or outside of the
dumpit callback.

832629ca5c tipc: add UDP remoteip dump to netlink API
When using replicast a UDP bearer can have an arbitrary amount of
remote ip addresses associated with it. This means we cannot simply
add all remote ip addresses to an existing bearer data message as it
might fill the message, leaving us with a truncated message that we
can't safely resume. To handle this we introduce the new netlink
command TIPC_NL_UDP_GET_REMOTEIP. This command is intended to be
called when the bearer data message has the
TIPC_NLA_UDP_MULTI_REMOTEIP flag set, indicating there are more than
one remote ip (replicast).

ef20cd4dd1 tipc: introduce UDP replicast
This patch introduces UDP replicast. A concept where we emulate
multicast by sending multiple unicast messages to configured peers.

The purpose of replicast is mainly to be able to use TIPC in cloud
environments where IP multicast is disabled. Using replicas to unicast
multicast messages is costly as we have to copy each skb and send the
copies individually.

cf6f7e1d51 tipc: dump monitor attributes
In this commit, we dump the monitor attributes when queried.
The link monitor attributes are separated into two kinds:
1. general attributes per bearer
2. specific attributes per node/peer
This style resembles the socket attributes and the nametable
publications per socket.

We move the definition of struct tipc_link from link.h to link.c in
order to minimize its exposure to the rest of the code.

When needed, we define new functions to make it possible for external

5be9c08671 tipc: narrow down exposure of struct tipc_node
In our effort to have less code and include dependencies between
entities such as node, link and bearer, we try to narrow down
the exposed interface towards the node as much as possible.

In this commit, we move the definition of struct tipc_node, along
with many of its associated function declarations, from node.h to
node.c. We also move some function definitions from link.c and
name_distr.c to node.c, since they access fields in struct tipc_node
that should not be externally visible. The moved functions are renamed
according to new location, and made static whenever possible.

There are no functional changes in this commit.

0655f6a863 tipc: add bearer disable/enable to new netlink api
A new netlink API for tipc that can disable or enable a tipc bearer.

The new API is separated from the old API because of a bug in the
user space client (tipc-config). The problem is that older versions
of tipc-config has a very low receive limit and adding commands to
the legacy genl_opts struct causes the ctrl_getfamily() response
message to grow, subsequently breaking the tool.

The new API utilizes netlink policies for input validation. Where the
top-level netlink attributes are tipc-logical entities, like bearer.
The top level entities then contain nested attributes. In this case
a name, nested link properties and a domain.

Netlink commands implemented in this patch:
TIPC_NL_BEARER_ENABLE
TIPC_NL_BEARER_DISABLE

Netlink logical layout of bearer enable message:
-> bearer

To keep this from happening replace bare capable and ns_capable calls
with netlink_capable, netlink_net_calls and netlink_ns_capable calls.
Which act the same as the previous calls except they verify that the
opener of the socket had the desired permissions as well.

9fe7ed4749 tipc: remove all enabled flags from all tipc components
When tipc module is inserted, many tipc components are initialized
one by one. During the initialization period, if one of them is
failed, tipc_core_stop() will be called to stop all components
whatever corresponding components are created or not. To avoid to
release uncreated ones, relevant components have to add necessary
enabled flags indicating whether they are created or not.

But in the initialization stage, if one component is unsuccessfully
created, we will just destroy successfully created components before
the failed component instead of all components. All enabled flags
defined in components, in turn, become redundant. Additionally it's
also unnecessary to identify whether table.types is NULL in
tipc_nametbl_stop() because name stable has been definitely created
successfully when tipc_nametbl_stop() is called.

c53ed74236 genetlink: only pass array to genl_register_family_with_ops()
As suggested by David Miller, make genl_register_family_with_ops()
a macro and pass only the array, evaluating ARRAY_SIZE() in the
macro, this is a little safer.

The openvswitch has some indirection, assing ops/n_ops directly in
that code. This might ultimately just assign the pointers in the
family initializations, saving the struct genl_family_and_ops and
code (once mcast groups are handled differently.)

15e473046c netlink: Rename pid to portid to avoid confusion
It is a frequent mistake to confuse the netlink port identifier with a
process identifier.  Try to reduce this confusion by renaming fields
that hold port identifiers portid instead of pid.

I have carefully avoided changing the structures exported to
userspace to avoid changing the userspace API.

I have successfully built an allyesconfig kernel with this change.

2cf8aa19fe tipc: use standard printk shortcut macros (pr_err etc.)
All messages should go directly to the kernel log.  The TIPC
specific error, warning, info and debug trace macro's are
removed and all references replaced with pr_err, pr_warn,
pr_info and pr_debug.

Commonly used sub-strings are explicitly declared as a const
char to reduce .text size.

Note that this means the debug messages (changed to pr_debug),
are now enabled through dynamic debugging, instead of a TIPC
specific Kconfig option (TIPC_DEBUG).  The latter will be
phased out completely

134e63756d genetlink: make netns aware
This makes generic netlink network namespace aware. No
generic netlink families except for the controller family
are made namespace aware, they need to be checked one by
one and then set the family->netnsok member to true.

A new function genlmsg_multicast_netns() is introduced to
allow sending a multicast message in a given namespace,
for example when it applies to an object that lives in
that namespace, a new function genlmsg_multicast_allns()
to send a message to all network namespaces (for objects
that do not have an associated netns).

The function genlmsg_multicast() is changed to multicast
the message in just init_net, which is currently correct
for all generic netlink families since they only work in
init_net right now. Some will later want to work in all
net namespaces because they do not care about the netns
at all -- those will have to be converted to use one of
the new functions genlmsg_multicast_allns() or
genlmsg_multicast_netns() whenever they are made netns
aware in some way.

After this patch families can easily decide whether or
not they should be available in all net namespaces. Many
genl families us it for objects not related to networking
and should therefore be available in all namespaces, but
that will have to be done on a per family basis.

Note that this doesn't touch on the checkpoint/restart
problem where network namespaces could be used, genl
families and multicast groups are numbered globally and
I see no easy way of changing that, especially since it
must be possible to multicast to all network namespaces
for those families that do not care about netns.

59f0c4523f tipc: Fix skb_under_panic when configuring TIPC without privileges
This patch prevents a TIPC configuration command requiring network
administrator privileges from triggering an skbuff underrun if it
is issued by a process lacking those privileges.  The revised error
handling code avoids the use of a potentially uninitialized global
variable by transforming the unauthorized command into a new command,
then following the standard command processing path to generate the
required error message.

causing hangup. Fix: use nlmsg_pid of the skb that triggered the
