2013-08-28genl: Hold reference on correct module while netlink-dump.Pravin B Shelar1-9/+11
netlink dump operations take module as parameter to hold reference for entire netlink dump duration. Currently it holds ref only on genl module which is not correct when we use ops registered to genl from another module. Following patch adds module pointer to genl_ops so that netlink can hold ref count on it.

2013-08-28genl: Fix genl dumpit() locking.Pravin B Shelar1-5/+46
In case of genl-family with parallel ops off, dumpif() callback is expected to run under genl_lock, But commit def3117493eafd9df (genl: Allow concurrent genl callbacks.) changed this behaviour where only first dumpit() op was called under genl-lock. For subsequent dump, only nlk->cb_lock was taken. Following patch fixes it by defining locked dumpit() and done() callback which takes care of genl-locking.

2013-08-22Revert "genetlink: fix family dump race"Johannes Berg1-7/+0
This reverts commit 58ad436fcf49810aa006016107f494c9ac9013db. It turns out that the change introduced a potential deadlock by causing a locking dependency with netlink's cb_mutex. I can't seem to find a way to resolve this without doing major changes to the locking, so revert this.

2013-08-13genetlink: fix family dump raceJohannes Berg1-0/+7
When dumping generic netlink families, only the first dump call is locked with genl_lock(), which protects the list of families, and thus subsequent calls can access the data without locking, racing against family addition/removal. This can cause a crash. Fix it - the locking needs to be conditional because the first time around it's already locked. A similar bug was reported to me on an old kernel (3.4.47) but the exact scenario that happened there is no longer possible, on those kernels the first round wasn't locked either. Looking at the current code I found the race described above, which had also existed on the old kernel.

2013-07-30genetlink: fix usage of NLM_F_EXCL or NLM_F_REPLACEPablo Neira1-1/+1
Currently, it is not possible to use neither NLM_F_EXCL nor NLM_F_REPLACE from genetlink. This is due to this checking in genl_family_rcv_msg: if (nlh->nlmsg_flags & NLM_F_DUMP) NLM_F_DUMP is NLM_F_MATCH|NLM_F_ROOT. Thus, if NLM_F_EXCL or NLM_F_REPLACE flag is set, genetlink believes that you're requesting a dump and it calls the .dumpit callback. The solution that I propose is to refine this checking to make it stricter: if ((nlh->nlmsg_flags & NLM_F_DUMP) == NLM_F_DUMP) And given the combination NLM_F_REPLACE and NLM_F_EXCL does not make sense to me, it removes the ambiguity. There was a patch that tried to fix this some time ago (0ab03c2 netlink: test for all flags of the NLM_F_DUMP composite) but it tried to resolve this ambiguity in *all* existing netlink subsystems, not only genetlink. That patch was reverted since it broke iproute2, which is using NLM_F_ROOT to request the dump of the routing cache. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-06-27netlink: fix splat in skb_clone with large messagesPablo Neira1-17/+18
Since (c05cdb1 netlink: allow large data transfers from user-space), netlink splats if it invokes skb_clone on large netlink skbs since: * skb_shared_info was not correctly initialized. * skb->destructor is not set in the cloned skb.

Moreover, handle the release of the large cloned skb head area in the destructor path. 2) not allowing large skbuffs in the netlink broadcast path. I cannot find any reasonable use of the large data transfer using netlink in that path, moreover this helps to skip extra skb_clone handling. I found two more netlink clients that are cloning the skbs, but they are not in the sendmsg path. Therefore, the sole client cloning that I found seems to be the fib frontend.

Conflicts: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/Kconfig drivers/net/xen-netback/netback.c net/batman-adv/bat_iv_ogm.c net/wireless/nl80211.c The ath9k Kconfig conflict was a change of a Kconfig option name right next to the deletion of another option. The xen-netback conflict was overlapping changes involving the handling of the notify list in xen_netbk_rx_action(). Batman conflict resolution provided by Antonio Quartulli, basically keep everything in both conflict hunks. The nl80211 conflict is a little more involved. In 'net' we added a dynamic memory allocation to nl80211_dump_wiphy() to fix a race that Linus reported. Meanwhile in 'net-next' the handlers were converted to use pre and post doit handlers which use a flag to determine whether to hold the RTNL mutex around the operation. However, the dump handlers to not use this logic. Instead they have to explicitly do the locking. There were apparent bugs in the conversion of nl80211_dump_wiphy() in that we were not dropping the RTNL mutex in all the return paths, and it seems we very much should be doing so. So I fixed that whilst handling the overlapping changes. To simplify the initial returns, I take the RTNL mutex after we try to allocate 'tb'. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2013-06-11netlink: Add compare function for netlink_tableGao feng2-8/+26
As we know, netlink sockets are private resource of net namespace, they can communicate with each other only when they in the same net namespace. this works well until we try to add namespace support for other subsystems which use netlink. Don't like ipv4 and route table.., it is not suited to make these subsytems belong to net namespace, Such as audit and crypto subsystems,they are more suitable to user namespace. So we must have the ability to make the netlink sockets in same user namespace can communicate with each other. This patch adds a new function pointer "compare" for netlink_table, we can decide if the netlink sockets can communicate with each other through this netlink_table self-defined compare function. The behavior isn't changed if we don't provide the compare function for netlink_table. Signed-off-by: Gao feng <gaofeng@cn.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: Serge E.

2013-06-07netlink: allow large data transfers from user-spacePablo Neira Ayuso1-2/+35
I can hit ENOBUFS in the sendmsg() path with a large batch that is composed of many netlink messages. Here that limit is 8 MBytes of skbuff data area as kmalloc does not manage to get more than that. While discussing atomic rule-set for nftables with Patrick McHardy, we decided to put all rule-set updates that need to be applied atomically in one single batch to simplify the existing approach. However, as explained above, the existing netlink code limits us to a maximum of ~20000 rules that fit in one single batch without hitting ENOBUFS. iptables does not have such limitation as it is using vmalloc. This patch adds netlink_alloc_large_skb() which is only used in the netlink_sendmsg() path. It uses alloc_skb if the memory requested is <= one memory page, that should be the common case for most subsystems, else vmalloc for higher memory allocations.

2013-04-19netlink: add flow control for memory mapped I/OPatrick McHardy1-27/+61
Add flow control for memory mapped RX. Since user-space usually doesn't invoke recvmsg() when using memory mapped I/O, flow control is performed in netlink_poll(). Dumps are allowed to continue if at least half of the ring frames are unused. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2013-04-19netlink: implement memory mapped recvmsg()Patrick McHardy1-3/+141
Add support for mmap'ed recvmsg(). To allow the kernel to construct messages into the mapped area, a dataless skb is allocated and the data pointer is set to point into the ring frame. This means frames will be delivered to userspace in order of allocation instead of order of transmission. This usually doesn't matter since the order is either not determinable by userspace or message creation/transmission is serialized. The only case where this can have a visible difference is nfnetlink_queue. Userspace can't assume mmap'ed messages have ordered IDs anymore and needs to check this if using batched verdicts. For non-mapped sockets, nothing changes. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2013-04-19netlink: implement memory mapped sendmsg()Patrick McHardy1-6/+129
Add support for mmap'ed sendmsg() to netlink. Since the kernel validates received messages before processing them, the code makes sure userspace can't modify the message contents after invoking sendmsg(). To do that only a single mapping of the TX ring is allowed to exist and the socket must not be shared. If either of these two conditions does not hold, it falls back to copying.

2013-04-19netlink: add netlink_skb_set_owner_r()Patrick McHardy1-3/+17
For mmap'ed I/O a netlink specific skb destructor needs to be invoked after the final kfree_skb() to clean up state. This doesn't work currently since the skb's ownership is transfered to the receiving socket using skb_set_owner_r(), which orphans the skb, thereby invoking the destructor prematurely. Since netlink doesn't account skbs to the originating socket, there's no need to orphan the skb. Add a netlink specific skb_set_owner_r() variant that does not orphan the skb and use a netlink specific destructor to call sock_rfree().

2013-03-21netlink: Diag core and basic socket info dumping (v2)Andrey Vagin3-0/+201
The netlink_diag can be built as a module, just like it's done in unix sockets. The core dumping message carries the basic info about netlink sockets: family, type and protocol, portis, dst_group, dst_portid, state. Groups can be received as an optional parameter NETLINK_DIAG_GROUPS. Netlink sockets cab be filtered by protocols. The socket inode number and cookie is reserved for future per-socket info retrieving. The per-protocol filtering is also reserved for future by requiring the sdiag_protocol to be zero. The file /proc/net/netlink doesn't provide enough information for dumping netlink sockets. It doesn't provide dst_group, dst_portid, groups above 32. v2: fix NETLINK_DIAG_MAX. Now it's equal to the last constant. Acked-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@parallels.com> Cc: "David S.

2013-02-27hlist: drop the node parameter from iteratorsSasha Levin1-19/+11
I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member) The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter: hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member) Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate. Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required: - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones. - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this was modified to use 'obj->member' instead. - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator properly, so those had to be fixed up manually. The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here: @@ iterator name hlist_for_each_entry, hlist_for_each_entry_continue, hlist_for_each_entry_from, hlist_for_each_entry_rcu, hlist_for_each_entry_rcu_bh, hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh, for_each_busy_worker, ax25_uid_for_each, ax25_for_each, inet_bind_bucket_for_each, sctp_for_each_hentry, sk_for_each, sk_for_each_rcu, sk_for_each_from, sk_for_each_safe, sk_for_each_bound, hlist_for_each_entry_safe, hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu, nr_neigh_for_each, nr_neigh_for_each_safe, nr_node_for_each, nr_node_for_each_safe, for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp, for_each_gfn_sp, for_each_host; type T; expression a,c,d,e; identifier b; statement S; @@ -T b; <+... when != b ( hlist_for_each_entry(a, - b, c, d) S | hlist_for_each_entry_continue(a, - b, c) S | hlist_for_each_entry_from(a, - b, c) S | hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(a, - b, c, d) S | hlist_for_each_entry_rcu_bh(a, - b, c, d) S | hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh(a, - b, c) S | for_each_busy_worker(a, c, - b, d) S | ax25_uid_for_each(a, - b, c) S | ax25_for_each(a, - b, c) S | inet_bind_bucket_for_each(a, - b, c) S | sctp_for_each_hentry(a, - b, c) S | sk_for_each(a, - b, c) S | sk_for_each_rcu(a, - b, c) S | sk_for_each_from -(a, b) +(a) S + sk_for_each_from(a) S | sk_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | sk_for_each_bound(a, - b, c) S | hlist_for_each_entry_safe(a, - b, c, d, e) S | hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu(a, - b, c) S | nr_neigh_for_each(a, - b, c) S | nr_neigh_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | nr_node_for_each(a, - b, c) S | nr_node_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | - for_each_gfn_sp(a, c, d, b) S + for_each_gfn_sp(a, c, d) S | - for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp(a, c, d, b) S + for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp(a, c, d) S | for_each_host(a, - b, c) S | for_each_host_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | for_each_mesh_entry(a, - b, c, d) S ) ...+> [akpm@linux-foundation.org: drop bogus change from net/ipv4/raw.c] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: drop bogus hunk from net/ipv6/raw.c] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: checkpatch fixes] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix warnings] [akpm@linux-foudnation.org: redo intrusive kvm changes] Tested-by: Peter Senna Tschudin <peter.senna@gmail.com> Acked-by: Paul E.

On some suspend/resume operations involving wimax device, we have noticed some intermittent memory corruptions in netlink code. Stéphane Marchesin tracked this corruption in netlink_update_listeners() and suggested a patch. It appears netlink_release() should use kfree_rcu() instead of kfree() for the listeners structure as it may be used by other cpus using RCU protection. netlink_release() must set to NULL the listeners pointer when it is about to be freed. Also have to protect netlink_update_listeners() and netlink_has_listeners() if listeners is NULL. Add a nl_deref_protected() lockdep helper to properly document which locks protects us.

Passing uids and gids on NETLINK_CB from a process in one user namespace to a process in another user namespace can result in the wrong uid or gid being presented to userspace. Avoid that problem by passing kuids and kgids instead. - define struct scm_creds for use in scm_cookie and netlink_skb_parms that holds uid and gid information in kuid_t and kgid_t. - Modify scm_set_cred to fill out scm_creds by heand instead of using cred_to_ucred to fill out struct ucred. This conversion ensures userspace does not get incorrect uid or gid values to look at. - Modify scm_recv to convert from struct scm_creds to struct ucred before copying credential values to userspace. - Modify __scm_send to populate struct scm_creds on in the scm_cookie, instead of just copying struct ucred from userspace. - Modify netlink_sendmsg to copy scm_creds instead of struct ucred into the NETLINK_CB.
