af_iucv: Move sockaddr length checks to before accessing sa_family in bind and connect handlers

2017-06-25T15:42:58+00:00

Verify that the caller-provided sockaddr structure is large enough to contain the sa_family field, before accessing it in bind() and connect() handlers of the AF_IUCV socket. Since neither syscall enforces a minimum size of the corresponding memory region, very short sockaddrs (zero or one byte long) result in operating on uninitialized memory while referencing .sa_family.

net/iucv: improve endianness handling

2017-06-25T15:42:58+00:00

Use proper endianness conversion for an skb protocol assignment. Given that IUCV is only available on big endian systems (s390), this simply avoids an endianness warning reported by sparse.

networking: make skb_push & __skb_push return void pointers

2017-06-16T15:48:40+00:00

It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *, and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not. Make these functions return void * and remove all the casts across the tree, adding a (u8 *) cast only where the unsigned char pointer was used directly, all done with the following spatch: @@ expression SKB, LEN; typedef u8; identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum }; @@ - *(fn(SKB, LEN)) + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN) @@ expression E, SKB, LEN; identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum }; type T; @@ - E = ((T *)(fn(SKB, LEN))) + E = fn(SKB, LEN) @@ expression SKB, LEN; identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum }; @@ - fn(SKB, LEN)[0] + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN) Note that the last part there converts from push(...)[0] to the more idiomatic *(u8 *)push(...).

net: Work around lockdep limitation in sockets that use sockets

2017-03-10T02:23:27+00:00

Lockdep issues a circular dependency warning when AFS issues an operation through AF_RXRPC from a context in which the VFS/VM holds the mmap_sem. The theory lockdep comes up with is as follows: (1) If the pagefault handler decides it needs to read pages from AFS, it calls AFS with mmap_sem held and AFS begins an AF_RXRPC call, but creating a call requires the socket lock: mmap_sem must be taken before sk_lock-AF_RXRPC (2) afs_open_socket() opens an AF_RXRPC socket and binds it. rxrpc_bind() binds the underlying UDP socket whilst holding its socket lock. inet_bind() takes its own socket lock: sk_lock-AF_RXRPC must be taken before sk_lock-AF_INET (3) Reading from a TCP socket into a userspace buffer might cause a fault and thus cause the kernel to take the mmap_sem, but the TCP socket is locked whilst doing this: sk_lock-AF_INET must be taken before mmap_sem However, lockdep's theory is wrong in this instance because it deals only with lock classes and not individual locks. The AF_INET lock in (2) isn't really equivalent to the AF_INET lock in (3) as the former deals with a socket entirely internal to the kernel that never sees userspace. This is a limitation in the design of lockdep. Fix the general case by: (1) Double up all the locking keys used in sockets so that one set are used if the socket is created by userspace and the other set is used if the socket is created by the kernel. (2) Store the kern parameter passed to sk_alloc() in a variable in the sock struct (sk_kern_sock). This informs sock_lock_init(), sock_init_data() and sk_clone_lock() as to the lock keys to be used. Note that the child created by sk_clone_lock() inherits the parent's kern setting. (3) Add a 'kern' parameter to ->accept() that is analogous to the one passed in to ->create() that distinguishes whether kernel_accept() or sys_accept4() was the caller and can be passed to sk_alloc(). Note that a lot of accept functions merely dequeue an already allocated socket. I haven't touched these as the new socket already exists before we get the parameter. Note also that there are a couple of places where I've made the accepted socket unconditionally kernel-based: irda_accept() rds_rcp_accept_one() tcp_accept_from_sock() because they follow a sock_create_kern() and accept off of that. Whilst creating this, I noticed that lustre and ocfs don't create sockets through sock_create_kern() and thus they aren't marked as for-kernel, though they appear to be internal. I wonder if these should do that so that they use the new set of lock keys. Signed-off-by: David Howells Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net/af_iucv: don't use paged skbs for TX on HiperSockets

2017-01-11T02:08:29+00:00

With commit e53743994e21 ("af_iucv: use paged SKBs for big outbound messages"), we transmit paged skbs for both of AF_IUCV's transport modes (IUCV or HiperSockets). The qeth driver for Layer 3 HiperSockets currently doesn't support NETIF_F_SG, so these skbs would just be linearized again by the stack. Avoid that overhead by using paged skbs only for IUCV transport. cc stable, since this also circumvents a significant skb leak when sending large messages (where the skb then needs to be linearized).

Subject: [PATCH] af_iucv: drop skbs rejected by filter

2016-10-12T05:56:04+00:00

A packet filter might be installed for instance with setsockopt SO_ATTACH_FILTER. af_iucv currently queues skbs rejected by filter into the backlog queue. This does not make sense, since packets rejected by filter can be dropped immediately. This patch adds separate sk_filter return code checking, and dropping of packets if applicable.

Subject: [PATCH] af_iucv: enable control sends in case of SEND_SHUTDOWN

2016-10-12T05:56:04+00:00

If a socket program has shut down the socket for sending, it can still receive an undetermined number of packets. The AF_IUCV protocol for HIPER transport requires sending of a WIN flag from time to time from the receiver to the sender, otherwise the peer cannot continue sending. That means sending of control flags must still work, even though the AF_IUCV socket is shutdown for sending data. sock_alloc_send_skb() returns with error EPIPE, if socket sk_shutdown is SEND_SHUTDOWN. Thus this patch temporarily removes the send shutdown attribute from the socket to enable transfer of control flags. Signed-off-by: Ursula Braun Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
