2011-06-09rtnetlink: Compute and store minimum ifinfo dump sizeGreg Rose
The message size allocated for rtnl ifinfo dumps was limited to a single page. This is not enough for additional interface info available with devices that support SR-IOV and caused a bug in which VF info would not be displayed if more than approximately 40 VFs were created per interface. Implement a new function pointer for the rtnl_register service that will calculate the amount of data required for the ifinfo dump and allocate enough data to satisfy the request.

2011-05-24net: convert %p usage to %pKDan Rosenberg
The %pK format specifier is designed to hide exposed kernel pointers, specifically via /proc interfaces. Exposing these pointers provides an easy target for kernel write vulnerabilities, since they reveal the locations of writable structures containing easily triggerable function pointers. The behavior of %pK depends on the kptr_restrict sysctl. If kptr_restrict is set to 0, no deviation from the standard %p behavior occurs. If kptr_restrict is set to 1, the default, if the current user (intended to be a reader via seq_printf(), etc.) does not have CAP_SYSLOG (currently in the LSM tree), kernel pointers using %pK are printed as 0's. If kptr_restrict is set to 2, kernel pointers using %pK are printed as 0's regardless of privileges. Replacing with 0's was chosen over the default "(null)", which cannot be parsed by userland %p, which expects "(nil)". The supporting code for kptr_restrict and %pK are currently in the -mm tree. This patch converts users of %p in net/ to %pK. Cases of printing pointers to the syslog are not covered, since this would eliminate useful information for postmortem debugging and the reading of the syslog is already optionally protected by the dmesg_restrict sysctl.

2011-05-02net: dont hold rtnl mutex during netlink dump callbacksEric Dumazet
Four years ago, Patrick made a change to hold rtnl mutex during netlink dump callbacks. I believe it was a wrong move. This slows down concurrent dumps, making good old /proc/net/ files faster than rtnetlink in some situations. This occurred to me because one "ip link show dev ..." was _very_ slow on a workload adding/removing network devices in background. All dump callbacks are able to use RCU locking now, so this patch does roughly a revert of commits : 1c2d670f366 : [RTNETLINK]: Hold rtnl_mutex during netlink dump callbacks 6313c1e0992 : [RTNETLINK]: Remove unnecessary locking in dump callbacks This let writers fight for rtnl mutex and readers going full speed. It also takes care of phonet : phonet_route_get() is now called from rcu read section.

This is now a run-time choice so that a single kernel can support both old and new generation ISI modems.

This provides support for newer ISI modems with no need for the earlier experimental compile-time alternative choice. With this, we can now use the same kernel and userspace with both types of modems. This also avoids confusing two different and incompatible state machines, actively connected vs accepted sockets, and adds connection response error handling (processing "SYN/RST" of sorts).

2011-03-09Phonet: provide pipe socket option to retrieve the pipe identifierRémi Denis-Courmont
User-space sometimes needs this information. In particular, the GPRS context or the AT commands pipe setups may use the pipe handle as a reference. This removes the settable pipe handle with CONFIG_PHONET_PIPECTRLR. It did not handle error cases correctly. Furthermore, the kernel *could* implement a smart scheme for allocating handles (if ever needed), but userspace really cannot.

The previous Phonet patch series introduced per-socket implicit destination (i.e. connect()). In that case, the destination socket address is NULL in the transmit function. However commit a8059512b120362b15424f152b2548fe8b11bd0c ("Phonet: implement per-socket destination/peer address") is incomplete and would trigger a NULL dereference.

There are a bunch of issues that need to be fixed, including: - GFP_KERNEL allocations from atomic context (and GFP_ATOMIC in process context), - abuse of the setsockopt() call convention, - unprotected/unlocked static variables...

2010-10-08Phonet: cleanup pipe enable socket optionRémi Denis-Courmont
The current code works like this: int garbage, status; socklen_t len = sizeof(status); /* enable pipe */ setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &garbage, sizeof(garbage)); /* disable pipe */ setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_DISABLE, &garbage, sizeof(garbage)); /* get status */ getsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_INQ, &status, &len); ...which does not follow the usual socket option pattern. This patch merges all three "options" into a single gettable&settable option, before Linux 2.6.37 gets out: int status; socklen_t len = sizeof(status); /* enable pipe */ status = 1; setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &status, sizeof(status)); /* disable pipe */ status = 0; setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &status, sizeof(status)); /* get status */ getsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &status, &len); This also fixes the error code from EFAULT to ENOTCONN.

When both destination device and object are nul, Phonet routes the packet according to the resource field. In fact, this is the most common pattern when sending Phonet "request" packets. In this case, the packet is delivered to whichever endpoint (socket) has registered the resource. This adds a new table so that Linux processes can register their Phonet sockets to Phonet resources, if they have adequate privileges. (Namespace support is not implemented at the moment.)

2010-09-15Phonet: remove dangling pipe if an endpoint is closed earlyRémi Denis-Courmont
Closing a pipe endpoint is not normally allowed by the Phonet pipe, other than as a side after-effect of removing the pipe between two endpoints. But there is no way to prevent Linux userspace processes from being killed or suffering from bugs, so this can still happen. We might as well forcefully close Phonet pipe endpoints then. The cellular modem supports only a few existing pipes at a time. So we really should not leak them. This change instructs the modem to destroy the pipe if either of the pipe's endpoint (Linux socket) is closed too early.

2010-05-01net: sock_def_readable() and friends RCU conversionEric Dumazet
sk_callback_lock rwlock actually protects sk->sk_sleep pointer, so we need two atomic operations (and associated dirtying) per incoming packet. RCU conversion is pretty much needed : 1) Add a new structure, called "struct socket_wq" to hold all fields that will need rcu_read_lock() protection (currently: a wait_queue_head_t and a struct fasync_struct pointer). [Future patch will add a list anchor for wakeup coalescing] 2) Attach one of such structure to each "struct socket" created in sock_alloc_inode(). 3) Respect RCU grace period when freeing a "struct socket_wq" 4) Change sk_sleep pointer in "struct sock" by sk_wq, pointer to "struct socket_wq" 5) Change sk_sleep() function to use new sk->sk_wq instead of sk->sk_sleep 6) Change sk_has_sleeper() to wq_has_sleeper() that must be used inside a rcu_read_lock() section. 7) Change all sk_has_sleeper() callers to : - Use rcu_read_lock() instead of read_lock(&sk->sk_callback_lock) - Use wq_has_sleeper() to eventually wakeup tasks. - Use rcu_read_unlock() instead of read_unlock(&sk->sk_callback_lock) 8) sock_wake_async() is modified to use rcu protection as well. 9) Exceptions : macvtap, drivers/net/tun.c, af_unix use integrated "struct socket_wq" instead of dynamically allocated ones. They dont need rcu freeing. Some cleanups or followups are probably needed, (possible sk_callback_lock conversion to a spinlock for example...).
