2019-12-05VSOCK: bind to random port for VMADDR_PORT_ANYLepton Wu
[ Upstream commit 8236b08cf50f85bbfaf48910a0b3ee68318b7c4b ] The old code always starts from fixed port for VMADDR_PORT_ANY. Sometimes when VMM crashed, there is still orphaned vsock which is waiting for close timer, then it could cause connection time out for new started VM if they are trying to connect to same port with same guest cid since the new packets could hit that orphaned vsock. We could also fix this by doing more in vhost_vsock_reset_orphans, but any way, it should be better to start from a random local port instead of a fixed one.

2019-01-13VSOCK: Send reset control packet when socket is partially boundJorgen Hansen
[ Upstream commit a915b982d8f5e4295f64b8dd37ce753874867e88 ] If a server side socket is bound to an address, but not in the listening state yet, incoming connection requests should receive a reset control packet in response. However, the function used to send the reset silently drops the reset packet if the sending socket isn't bound to a remote address (as is the case for a bound socket not yet in the listening state). This change fixes this by using the src of the incoming packet as destination for the reset packet in this case.

commit f7f9b5e7f8eccfd68ffa7b8d74b07c478bb9e7f0 upstream. When a thread is prepared for waiting by calling prepare_to_wait, sleeping is not allowed until either the wait has taken place or finish_wait has been called. The existing code in af_vsock imposed unnecessary no-sleep assumptions to a broad list of backend functions. This patch shrinks the influence of prepare_to_wait to the area where it is strictly needed, therefore relaxing the no-sleep restriction there.

[ Upstream commit dedc58e067d8c379a15a8a183c5db318201295bb ] The peer may be expecting a reply having sent a request and then done a shutdown(SHUT_WR), so tearing down the whole socket at this point seems wrong and breaks for me with a client which does a SHUT_WR.

2015-11-04VSOCK: call sk->sk_data_ready() on accept()Stefan Hajnoczi
When a listen socket enqueues a connection for userspace to accept(), the sk->sk_data_ready() callback should be invoked. In-kernel socket users rely on this callback to detect when incoming connections are available. Currently the sk->sk_state_change() callback is invoked by vmci_transport.c. This happens to work for userspace applications since sk->sk_state_change = sock_def_wakeup() and sk->sk_data_ready = sock_def_readable() both wake up the accept() waiter. In-kernel socket users, on the other hand, fail to detect incoming connections. Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Rename from SS_LISTEN to VSOCK_SS_LISTEN since the constant is not part of enum socket_state (SS_CONNECTED, ...). This way it is clear that the constant is vsock-specific.

2015-10-22VSOCK: sock_put wasn't safe to call in interrupt contextJorgen Hansen
In the vsock vmci_transport driver, sock_put wasn't safe to call in interrupt context, since that may call the vsock destructor which in turn calls several functions that should only be called from process context. This change defers the callling of these functions to a worker thread. All these functions were deallocation of resources related to the transport itself. Furthermore, an unused callback was removed to simplify the cleanup. Multiple customers have been hitting this issue when using VMware tools on vSphere 2015. Also added a version to the vmci transport module (starting from 1.0.2.0-k since up until now it appears that this module was sharing version with vsock that is currently at 1.0.1.0-k).

2014-04-11net: Fix use after free by removing length arg from sk_data_ready callbacks.David S. Miller
Several spots in the kernel perform a sequence like: skb_queue_tail(&sk->s_receive_queue, skb); sk->sk_data_ready(sk, skb->len); But at the moment we place the SKB onto the socket receive queue it can be consumed and freed up. So this skb->len access is potentially to freed up memory. Furthermore, the skb->len can be modified by the consumer so it is possible that the value isn't accurate. And finally, no actual implementation of this callback actually uses the length argument. And since nobody actually cared about it's value, lots of call sites pass arbitrary values in such as '0' and even '1'. So just remove the length argument from the callback, that way there is no confusion whatsoever and all of these use-after-free cases get fixed as a side effect.

2013-11-20net: rework recvmsg handler msg_name and msg_namelen logicHannes Frederic Sowa
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.

2013-02-10VSOCK: Introduce VM SocketsAndy King
VM Sockets allows communication between virtual machines and the hypervisor. User level applications both in a virtual machine and on the host can use the VM Sockets API, which facilitates fast and efficient communication between guest virtual machines and their host. A socket address family, designed to be compatible with UDP and TCP at the interface level, is provided. Today, VM Sockets is used by various VMware Tools components inside the guest for zero-config, network-less access to VMware host services. In addition to this, VMware's users are using VM Sockets for various applications, where network access of the virtual machine is restricted or non-existent. Examples of this are VMs communicating with device proxies for proprietary hardware running as host applications and automated testing of applications running within virtual machines. The VMware VM Sockets are similar to other socket types, like Berkeley UNIX socket interface. The VM Sockets module supports both connection-oriented stream sockets like TCP, and connectionless datagram sockets like UDP. The VM Sockets protocol family is defined as "AF_VSOCK" and the socket operations split for SOCK_DGRAM and SOCK_STREAM.
