[NET]: make netlink user -> kernel interface synchronious
-DaveM ]
nl_fib_input re-reuses incoming skb to send the reply. This means that this
packet will be freed twice, namely in:
- netlink_unicast_kernel
- on receive path
Use clone to send as a cure, the caller is responsible for kfree_skb on error.
Thanks to Alexey Dobryan, who originally found the problem.

When used function put_cmsg() to copy kernel information to user
application memory, if the memory length given by user application is
not enough, by the bad length calculate of msg.msg_controllen,
put_cmsg() function may cause the msg.msg_controllen to be a large
value, such as 0xFFFFFFF0, so the following put_cmsg() can also write
data to usr application memory even usr has no valid memory to store
this. This may cause usr application memory overflow.
int put_cmsg(struct msghdr * msg, int level, int type, int len, void *data)
{
struct cmsghdr __user *cm
= (__force struct cmsghdr __user *)msg->msg_control;
struct cmsghdr cmhdr;
int cmlen = CMSG_LEN(len);
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
int err;
if (MSG_CMSG_COMPAT & msg->msg_flags)
return put_cmsg_compat(msg, level, type, len, data);
if (cm==NULL || msg->msg_controllen < sizeof(*cm)) {
msg->msg_flags |= MSG_CTRUNC;
return 0; /* XXX: return error? check spec. */
}
if (msg->msg_controllen < cmlen) {
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
msg->msg_flags |= MSG_CTRUNC;
cmlen = msg->msg_controllen;
}
cmhdr.cmsg_level = level;
cmhdr.cmsg_type = type;
cmhdr.cmsg_len = cmlen;
err = -EFAULT;
if (copy_to_user(cm, &cmhdr, sizeof cmhdr))
goto out;
if (copy_to_user(CMSG_DATA(cm), data, cmlen - sizeof(struct cmsghdr)))
goto out;
cmlen = CMSG_SPACE(len);
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If MSG_CTRUNC flags is set, msg->msg_controllen is less than
CMSG_SPACE(len), "msg->msg_controllen -= cmlen" will cause unsinged int
type msg->msg_controllen to be a large value.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
msg->msg_control += cmlen;
msg->msg_controllen -= cmlen;
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
err = 0;
out:
return err;
}
The same promble exists in put_cmsg_compat(). This patch can fix this

The aalgos/ealgos fields are only 32 bits wide. However, af_key tries
to test them with the expression 1 << id where id can be as large as
253. This produces different behaviour on different architectures.
The following patch explicitly checks whether ID is greater than 31
and fails the check if that's the case.
We cannot easily extend the mask to be longer than 32 bits due to
exposure to user-space. Besides, this whole interface is obsolete
anyway in favour of the xfrm_user interface which doesn't use this
bit mask in templates (well not within the kernel anyway).

This means slock-AF_AX25 could be taken both from softirq and process

When copying entries to user, the kernel makes two passes through the
data, first copying all the entries, then fixing up names and counters.
On the second pass it copies the kernel and match data from userspace
to the kernel again to find the corresponding structures, expecting
that kernel pointers contained in the data are still valid.
This is obviously broken, fix by avoiding the second pass completely
and fixing names and counters while dumping the ruleset, using the

The vlan module cleanup function starts with

The first call removes all the vlan devices and

AFAIS there's a tiny race window between these two
calls - after rtnl unregistered all the vlans, but
the ioctl handler isn't set to NULL yet, user can
manage to call this ioctl and create one vlan device,
and that this function will later BUG_ON seeing

does (actually, even the state had to be adjusted to pass some
checks FRTO does not want to occur), it's more robust to let it
make the decision if sending is allowed. State adjustments
needed:
- Make sure snd_cwnd limit is not hit in there
- Disable nagle (if necessary) through the frto_counter == 2
The result of check for frto_counter in argument to call for
tcp_enter_frto_loss can just be open coded, therefore there

I'm not sure if this is best choice, someone might have better
solutions. But this patch fixed the connection problem when switching
from a WPA enabled AP (using wpa_supplicant) to an open AP (using
iwconfig). The root cause is when we connect to a WPA enabled AP,
wpa_supplicant sets the ifsta->extra_ie thru SIOCSIWGENIE. But if we
stop wpa_supplicant and connect to an open AP with iwconfig, there is
no way to clear the extra_ie so that mac80211 keeps connecting with that.
Someone could argue wpa_supplicant should clear the extra_ie during
its shutdown. But mac80211 should also handle the unexpected shutdown
case (ie. killall -9 wpa_supplicant).

Lachlan Andrew observed that my TCP-Illinois implementation uses the
beta value incorrectly:
The parameter beta in the paper specifies the amount to decrease
*by*: that is, on loss,
W <- W - beta*W
but in tcp_illinois_ssthresh() uses beta as the amount
to decrease *to*: W <- beta*W
This bug makes the Linux TCP-Illinois get less-aggressive on uncongested network,
hurting performance. Note: since the base beta value is .5, it has no
impact on a congested network.

Andrew Morton reported that __xfrm_lookup generates this warning:
net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c: In function '__xfrm_lookup':
net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c:1449: warning: 'dst' may be used uninitialized in this function
This is because if policy->action is of an unexpected value then dst will
not be initialised. Of course, in practice this should never happen since
the input layer xfrm_user/af_key will filter out all illegal values. But
the compiler doesn't know that of course.
So this patch fixes this by taking the conservative approach and treat all
unknown actions the same as a blocking action.

The following race is possible when one cpu unregisters the handler
while other one is trying to receive a message and call this one:
CPU1: CPU2:
inet_diag_rcv() inet_diag_unregister()
mutex_lock(&inet_diag_mutex);
netlink_rcv_skb(skb, &inet_diag_rcv_msg);
if (inet_diag_table[nlh->nlmsg_type] ==
NULL) /* false handler is still registered */
...
netlink_dump_start(idiagnl, skb, nlh,
inet_diag_dump, NULL);
cb = kzalloc(sizeof(*cb), GFP_KERNEL);
/* sleep here freeing memory
* or preempt
* or sleep later on nlk->cb_mutex
*/
spin_lock(&inet_diag_register_lock);
inet_diag_table[type] = NULL;
... spin_unlock(&inet_diag_register_lock);
synchronize_rcu();
/* CPU1 is sleeping - RCU quiescent
* state is passed
*/
return;
/* inet_diag_dump is finally called: */
inet_diag_dump()
handler = inet_diag_table[cb->nlh->nlmsg_type];
BUG_ON(handler == NULL);
/* OOPS! While we slept the unregister has set
* handler to NULL :(
*/
Grep showed, that the register/unregister functions are called
from init/fini module callbacks for tcp_/dccp_diag, so it's OK
to use the inet_diag_mutex to synchronize manipulations with the
inet_diag_table and the access to it.
Besides, as Herbert pointed out, asynchronous dumps should hold
this mutex as well, and thus, we provide the mutex as cb_mutex one.

I am not absolutely sure whether this actually is a bug (as in: I've got
no clue what the standards say or what other implementations do), but at
least I was pretty surprised when I noticed that a recv() on a
non-blocking unix domain socket of type SOCK_SEQPACKET (which is connection
oriented, after all) where the remote end has closed the connection
returned -1 (EAGAIN) rather than 0 to indicate end of file.
This is a test case:
| #include <sys/types.h>
| #include <unistd.h>
| #include <sys/socket.h>
| #include <sys/un.h>
| #include <fcntl.h>
| #include <string.h>
| #include <stdlib.h>
|
| int main(){
| int sock;
| struct sockaddr_un addr;
| char buf[4096];
| int pfds[2];
|
| pipe(pfds);
| sock=socket(PF_UNIX,SOCK_SEQPACKET,0);
| addr.sun_family=AF_UNIX;
| strcpy(addr.sun_path,"/tmp/foobar_testsock");
| bind(sock,(struct sockaddr *)&addr,sizeof(addr));
| listen(sock,1);
| if(fork()){
| close(sock);
| sock=socket(PF_UNIX,SOCK_SEQPACKET,0);
| connect(sock,(struct sockaddr *)&addr,sizeof(addr));
| fcntl(sock,F_SETFL,fcntl(sock,F_GETFL)|O_NONBLOCK);
| close(pfds[1]);
| read(pfds[0],buf,sizeof(buf));
| recv(sock,buf,sizeof(buf),0); // <-- this one
| }else accept(sock,NULL,NULL);
| exit(0);
| }
If you try it, make sure /tmp/foobar_testsock doesn't exist.

The change 050f009e16
[IPSEC]: Lock state when copying non-atomic fields to user-space
caused a regression.
Ingo Molnar reports that it causes a potential dead-lock found by the
lock validator as it tries to take x->lock within xfrm_state_lock while
numerous other sites take the locks in opposite order.
For 2.6.24, the best fix is to simply remove the added locks as that puts
us back in the same state as we've been in for years. For later kernels
a proper fix would be to reverse the locking order for every xfrm state
user such that if x->lock is taken together with xfrm_state_lock then
it is to be taken within it.

It seems that the checked range for receiver window check should
begin from the first rather than from the last skb that is going
to be included to the probe. And that can be achieved without
reference to skbs at all, snd_nxt and write_seq provides the
correct seqno already. Plus, it SHOULD account packets that are
necessary to trigger fast retransmit [RFC4821].
Location of snd_wnd < probe_size/size_needed check is bogus
because it will cause the other if() match as well (due to
snd_nxt >= snd_una invariant).

When connection tracking entry (nf_conn) is about to copy itself it can

Actually looking at this function I suspect it was copied from
nf_nat_setup_info() and thus bug was introduced.

[ Patrick McHardy states:
I now understand whats happening:
- new connection is allocated without helper
- connection is REDIRECTed to localhost
- nf_nat_setup_info adds NAT extension, but doesn't initialize it yet
- nf_conntrack_alter_reply performs a helper lookup based on the
new tuple, finds the SIP helper and allocates a helper extension,
causing reallocation because of too little space
- nf_nat_move_storage is called with the uninitialized nat extension

On 64-bit systems sizeof(struct ifreq) is 8 bytes larger than
sizeof(struct iwreq).
For GET calls, the wireless extension code copies back into userspace
using sizeof(struct ifreq) but userspace and elsewhere only allocates
a "struct iwreq". Thus, this copy writes past the end of the iwreq
object and corrupts whatever sits after it in memory.
Fix the copy_to_user() length.
This particularly hurts the compat case because the wireless compat
code uses compat_alloc_userspace() and right after this allocated
buffer is the current bottom of the user stack, and that's what gets
overwritten by the copy_to_user() call.

sysctl_tcp_congestion_control seems to have a bug that prevents it
from actually calling the tcp_set_default_congestion_control
function. This is not so apparent because it does not return an error
and generally the /proc interface is used to configure the default TCP
congestion control algorithm. This is present in 2.6.18 onwards and
probably earlier, though I have not inspected 2.6.15--2.6.17.
sysctl_tcp_congestion_control calls sysctl_string and expects a successful
return code of 0. In such a case it actually sets the congestion control
algorithm with tcp_set_default_congestion_control. Otherwise, it returns the
value returned by sysctl_string. This was correct in 2.6.14, as sysctl_string
returned 0 on success. However, sysctl_string was updated to return 1 on
success around about 2.6.15 and sysctl_tcp_congestion_control was not updated.
Even though sysctl_tcp_congestion_control returns 1, do_sysctl_strategy
converts this return code to '0', so the caller never notices the error.

The request_sock_queue's listen_opt is either vmalloc-ed or
kmalloc-ed depending on the number of table entries. Thus it
is expected to be handled properly on free, which is done in
the reqsk_queue_destroy().
However the error path in inet_csk_listen_start() calls
the lite version of reqsk_queue_destroy, called
__reqsk_queue_destroy, which calls the kfree unconditionally.
Fix this and move the __reqsk_queue_destroy into a .c file as
it looks too big to be inline.
As David also noticed, this is an error recovery path only,
so no locking is required and the lopt is known to be not NULL.

On commit 39c90ece75:
[IPV4]: Convert rt_check_expire() from softirq processing to workqueue.
we converted rt_check_expire() from softirq to workqueue, allowing the
function to perform all work it was supposed to do.
When the IP route cache is big, rt_check_expire() can take a long time
to run. (default settings : 20% of the hash table is scanned at each
invocation)
Adding cond_resched() helps giving cpu to higher priority tasks if
necessary.
Using a "if (need_resched())" test before calling "cond_resched();" is
necessary to avoid spending too much time doing the resched check.
(My tests gave a time reduction from 88 ms to 25 ms per
rt_check_expire() run on my i686 test machine)

I broke this in commit 3de96471bd:
[TCP]: Wrap-safed reordering detection FRTO check
tcp_process_frto should always see a valid frto_highmark. An invalid
frto_highmark (zero) is very likely what ultimately caused a seqno
compare in tcp_frto_enter_loss to do the wrong leading to the LOST-bit
leak.
Having LOST-bits integry ensured like done after commit
23aeeec365:
[TCP] FRTO: Plug potential LOST-bit leak

Commit fcc5a03ac4:
[NET]: Allow netdev REGISTER/CHANGENAME events to fail
makes the register_netdevice_notifier() handle the error from the
NETDEV_REGISTER event, sent to the registering block.
The bad news is that in this case the notifier block is
not removed from the list, but the error is returned to the
caller. In case the caller is in module init function and
handles this error this can abort the module loading. The
notifier block will be then removed from the kernel, but
will be left in the list. Oops :(
I think that the notifier block should be removed from the
chain in case of error, regardless whether this error is
handled by the caller or not. In the worst case (the error
is _not_ handled) module will not receive the events any
longer.

NULL ptr can be returned from tcp_write_queue_head to cached_skb
and then assigned to skb if packets_out was zero. Without this,
system is vulnerable to a carefully crafted ACKs which obviously
is remotely triggerable.
Besides, there's very little that needs to be done in sacktag
if there weren't any packets outstanding, just skipping the rest
doesn't hurt.

It might be possible that, in some extreme scenario that
I just cannot now construct in my mind, end_seq <=
frto_highmark check does not match causing the lost_out
and LOST bits become out-of-sync due to clearing and
recounting in the loop.
This may fix LOST-bit leak reported by Chazarain Guillaume

Otherwise TCP might violate packet ordering principles that FRTO
is based on. If conventional recovery path is chosen, this won't
be significant at all. In practice, any small enough value will
be sufficient to provide proper operation for FRTO, yet other
users of snd_cwnd might benefit from a "close enough" value.
FRTO's formula is now equal to what tcp_enter_cwr() uses.
FRTO used to check application limitedness a bit differently but
I changed that in commit 575ee7140d
and as a result checking for application limitedness became
completely non-existing.

The only qdiscs that check subqueue state before dequeue'ing are PRIO
and RR. The other qdiscs, including the default pfifo_fast qdisc,
will allow traffic bound for subqueue 0 through to hard_start_xmit.
The check for netif_queue_stopped() is done above in pkt_sched.h, so
it is unnecessary for qdisc_restart(). However, if the underlying
driver is multiqueue capable, and only sets queue states on subqueues,
this will allow packets to enter the driver when it's currently unable
to process packets, resulting in expensive requeues and driver
entries. This patch re-adds the check for the subqueue status before
calling hard_start_xmit, so we can try and avoid the driver entry when
the queues are stopped.

If CONFIG_NET_NS is not set, the only namespace is possible.
This patch removes list of pernet_operations and cleanups code a bit.
This list is not needed if there are no namespaces. We should just call
->init method.
Additionally, the ->exit will be called on module unloading only. This
case is safe - the code is not discarded. For the in/kernel code, ->exit
should never be called.
