* net: Add and use skb_copy_datagram_msg() helper.David S. Miller2014-11-051-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This encapsulates all of the skb_copy_datagram_iovec() callers with call argument signature "skb, offset, msghdr->msg_iov, length". When we move to iov_iters in the networking, the iov_iter object will sit in the msghdr. Having a helper like this means there will be less places to touch during that transformation.

* net_dma: simple removalDan Williams2014-09-281-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Per commit "77873803363c net_dma: mark broken" net_dma is no longer used and there is no plan to fix it. This is the mechanical removal of bits in CONFIG_NET_DMA ifdef guards. Reverting the remainder of the net_dma induced changes is deferred to subsequent patches.

* net: add build-time checks for msg->msg_name sizeSteffen Hurrle2014-01-181-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a follow-up patch to f3d3342602f8bc ("net: rework recvmsg handler msg_name and msg_namelen logic"). DECLARE_SOCKADDR validates that the structure we use for writing the name information to is not larger than the buffer which is reserved for msg->msg_name (which is 128 bytes). Also use DECLARE_SOCKADDR consistently in sendmsg code paths.

* net: llc: fix use after free in llc_ui_recvmsgDaniel Borkmann2014-01-021-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While commit 30a584d944fb fixes datagram interface in LLC, a use after free bug has been introduced for SOCK_STREAM sockets that do not make use of MSG_PEEK. The flow is as follow ... if (!(flags & MSG_PEEK)) { ... sk_eat_skb(sk, skb, false); ... } ... if (used + offset < skb->len) continue; ... where sk_eat_skb() calls __kfree_skb(). Therefore, cache original length and work on skb_len to check partial reads.

* net: rework recvmsg handler msg_name and msg_namelen logicHannes Frederic Sowa2013-11-201-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch now always passes msg->msg_namelen as 0. recvmsg handlers must set msg_namelen to the proper size <= sizeof(struct sockaddr_storage) to return msg_name to the user. This prevents numerous uninitialized memory leaks we had in the recvmsg handlers and makes it harder for new code to accidentally leak uninitialized memory. Optimize for the case recvfrom is called with NULL as address. We don't need to copy the address at all, so set it to NULL before invoking the recvmsg handler. We can do so, because all the recvmsg handlers must cope with the case a plain read() is called on them. read() also sets msg_name to NULL. Also document these changes in include/linux/net.h as suggested by David Miller. Changes since RFC: Set msg->msg_name = NULL if user specified a NULL in msg_name but had a non-null msg_namelen in verify_iovec/verify_compat_iovec. This doesn't affect sendto as it would bail out earlier while trying to copy-in the address. It also more naturally reflects the logic by the callers of verify_iovec. With this change in place I could remove " if (!uaddr || msg_sys->msg_namelen == 0) msg->msg_name = NULL ". This change does not alter the user visible error logic as we ignore msg_namelen as long as msg_name is NULL. Also remove two unnecessary curly brackets in ___sys_recvmsg and change comments to netdev style.

* llc: Fix missing msg_namelen update in llc_ui_recvmsg()Mathias Krause2013-04-071-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For stream sockets the code misses to update the msg_namelen member to 0 and therefore makes net/socket.c leak the local, uninitialized sockaddr_storage variable to userland -- 128 bytes of kernel stack memory. The msg_namelen update is also missing for datagram sockets in case the socket is shutting down during receive. Fix both issues by setting msg_namelen to 0 early. It will be updated later if we're going to fill the msg_name member.

* llc: fix info leak via getsockname()Mathias Krause2012-08-151-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The LLC code wrongly returns 0, i.e. "success", when the socket is zapped. Together with the uninitialized uaddrlen pointer argument from sys_getsockname this leads to an arbitrary memory leak of up to 128 bytes kernel stack via the getsockname() syscall. Return an error instead when the socket is zapped to prevent the info leak. Also remove the unnecessary memset(0). We don't directly write to the memory pointed by uaddr but memcpy() a local structure at the end of the function that is properly initialized.

* include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo2010-03-301-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

* llc: convert the socket list to RCU lockingOctavian Purdila2009-12-261-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For the reclamation phase we use the SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU mechanism, which require some extra checks in the lookup code: a) If the current socket was released, reallocated & inserted in another list it will short circuit the iteration for the current list, thus we need to restart the lookup. b) If the current socket was released, reallocated & inserted in the same list we just need to recheck it matches the look-up criteria and if not we can skip to the next element. In this case there is no need to restart the lookup, since sockets are inserted at the start of the list and the worst that will happen is that we will iterate throught some of the list elements more then once. Note that the /proc and multicast delivery was not yet converted to RCU, it still uses spinlocks for protection. Signed-off-by: Octavian Purdila <opurdila@ixiacom.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [NET]: Make the device list and device lookups per namespace.Eric W. Biederman2007-10-101-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch makes most of the generic device layer network namespace safe. This patch makes dev_base_head a network namespace variable, and then it picks up a few associated variables. The functions: dev_getbyhwaddr dev_getfirsthwbytype dev_get_by_flags dev_get_by_name __dev_get_by_name dev_get_by_index __dev_get_by_index dev_ioctl dev_ethtool dev_load wireless_process_ioctl were modified to take a network namespace argument, and deal with it. vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their hooks will receive a network namespace argument. So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle multiple network namespaces. The rest of the network stack was simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network namespace. This can be fixed when those components of the network stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces. For now the ifindex generator is left global. Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else we will have corner case problems with migration when we get that far. At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack that the ifindex of a network device won't change. Making the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when you change namespaces, and the like. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* [NET]: Make socket creation namespace safe.Eric W. Biederman2007-10-101-2/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch passes in the namespace a new socket should be created in and has the socket code do the appropriate reference counting. By virtue of this all socket create methods are touched. In addition the socket create methods are modified so that they will fail if you attempt to create a socket in a non-default network namespace. Failing if we attempt to create a socket outside of the default network namespace ensures that as we incrementally make the network stack network namespace aware we will not export functionality that someone has not audited and made certain is network namespace safe. Allowing us to partially enable network namespaces before all of the exotic protocols are supported.

* [LLX]: SOCK_DGRAM interface fixesStephen Hemminger2006-08-041-12/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The datagram interface of LLC is broken in a couple of ways. These were discovered when trying to use it to build an out-of-kernel version of STP. First it didn't pass the source address of the received packet in recvfrom(). It needs to copy the source address of received LLC packets into the socket control block. At the same time fix a security issue because there was uninitialized data leakage. Every recvfrom call was just copying out old data. Second, LLC should not merge multiple packets in one receive call on datagram sockets. LLC should preserve packet boundaries on SOCK_DGRAM. This fix goes against the old historical comments about UNIX98 semantics but without this fix SOCK_DGRAM is broken and useless. So either ANK's interpretation was incorect or UNIX98 standard was wrong.

* [LLC]: allow datagram recvmsgStephen Hemminger2006-06-171-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | LLC receive is broken for SOCK_DGRAM. If an application does recv() on a datagram socket and there is no data present, don't return "not connected". Instead, just do normal datagram semantics. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
