In a complex TC class hierarchy like this:

tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1:0 cbq bandwidth 100Mbit         \
  avpkt 1000 cell 8
tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:0 classid 1:1 cbq bandwidth 100Mbit  \
  rate 6Mbit weight 0.6Mbit prio 8 allot 1514 cell 8 maxburst 20      \
  avpkt 1000 bounded

tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1:0 protocol ip prio 1 u32 match ip \
  sport 80 0xffff flowid 1:3
tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1:0 protocol ip prio 1 u32 match ip \
  sport 25 0xffff flowid 1:4

tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:1 classid 1:3 cbq bandwidth 100Mbit  \
  rate 5Mbit weight 0.5Mbit prio 5 allot 1514 cell 8 maxburst 20      \
  avpkt 1000
tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:1 classid 1:4 cbq bandwidth 100Mbit  \
  rate 3Mbit weight 0.3Mbit prio 5 allot 1514 cell 8 maxburst 20      \
  avpkt 1000

where filters are installed on qdisc 1:0, so we can't merely
search from class 1:1 when creating class 1:3 and class 1:4. We have
to walk through all the child classes of the direct parent qdisc.
Otherwise we would miss filters those need reverse binding.

<id>urn:sha1:2e24cd755552350b94a7617617c6877b8cbcb701</id>
<content type='text'>
The current implementations of ops-&gt;bind_class() are merely
searching for classid and updating class in the struct tcf_result,
without invoking either of cl_ops-&gt;bind_tcf() or
cl_ops-&gt;unbind_tcf(). This breaks the design of them as qdisc's
like cbq use them to count filters too. This is why syzbot triggered
the warning in cbq_destroy_class().

In order to fix this, we have to call cl_ops-&gt;bind_tcf() and
cl_ops-&gt;unbind_tcf() like the filter binding path. This patch does
so by refactoring out two helper functions __tcf_bind_filter()
and __tcf_unbind_filter(), which are lockless and accept a Qdisc
pointer, then teaching each implementation to call them correctly.

Note, we merely pass the Qdisc pointer as an opaque pointer to
each filter, they only need to pass it down to the helper
functions without understanding it at all.

Marcelo noticed a backward compatibility issue of TCA_KIND
after we move from NLA_STRING to NLA_NUL_STRING, so it is probably
too late to change it.

Instead, to make everyone happy, we can just insert a NUL to
terminate the string with nla_strlcpy() like we do for TC actions.

<content type='text'>
The TCA_KIND attribute is of NLA_STRING which does not check
the NUL char. KMSAN reported an uninit-value of TCA_KIND which
is likely caused by the lack of NUL.

Change it to NLA_NUL_STRING and add a max len too.

<content type='text'>
At least sch_red and sch_tbf don't implement -&gt;tcf_block()
while still have a non-zero tc "class".

Instead of adding nop implementations to each of such qdisc's,
we can just relax the check of cops-&gt;tcf_block() in
tc_bind_tclass(). They don't support TC filter anyway.

<title>netlink: make validation more configurable for future strictness</title>
<updated>2019-04-27T21:07:21+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mirrors.hust.edu.cn/git/lwn.git/commit/?id=8cb081746c031fb164089322e2336a0bf5b3070c'/>
<id>urn:sha1:8cb081746c031fb164089322e2336a0bf5b3070c</id>
<content type='text'>
We currently have two levels of strict validation:

 1) liberal (default)
     - undefined (type &gt;= max) &amp; NLA_UNSPEC attributes accepted
     - attribute length &gt;= expected accepted
     - garbage at end of message accepted
 2) strict (opt-in)
     - NLA_UNSPEC attributes accepted
     - attribute length &gt;= expected accepted

Split out parsing strictness into four different options:
 * TRAILING     - check that there's no trailing data after parsing
                  attributes (in message or nested)
 * MAXTYPE      - reject attrs &gt; max known type
 * UNSPEC       - reject attributes with NLA_UNSPEC policy entries
 * STRICT_ATTRS - strictly validate attribute size

The default for future things should be *everything*.
The current *_strict() is a combination of TRAILING and MAXTYPE,
and is renamed to _deprecated_strict().
The current regular parsing has none of this, and is renamed to
*_parse_deprecated().

Additionally it allows us to selectively set one of the new flags
even on old policies. Notably, the UNSPEC flag could be useful in
this case, since it can be arranged (by filling in the policy) to
not be an incompatible userspace ABI change, but would then going
forward prevent forgetting attribute entries. Similar can apply
to the POLICY flag.

We end up with the following renames:
 * nla_parse           -&gt; nla_parse_deprecated
 * nla_parse_strict    -&gt; nla_parse_deprecated_strict
 * nlmsg_parse         -&gt; nlmsg_parse_deprecated
 * nlmsg_parse_strict  -&gt; nlmsg_parse_deprecated_strict
 * nla_parse_nested    -&gt; nla_parse_nested_deprecated
 * nla_validate_nested -&gt; nla_validate_nested_deprecated

Using spatch, of course:

    expression TB, MAX, HEAD, LEN, POL, EXT;

For this patch, don't actually add the strict, non-renamed versions
yet so that it breaks compile if I get it wrong.

Also, while at it, make nla_validate and nla_parse go down to a
common __nla_validate_parse() function to avoid code duplication.

Ultimately, this allows us to have very strict validation for every
new caller of nla_parse()/nlmsg_parse() etc as re-introduced in the
next patch, while existing things will continue to work as is.

In effect then, this adds fully strict validation for any new command.

<content type='text'>
Even if the NLA_F_NESTED flag was introduced more than 11 years ago, most
netlink based interfaces (including recently added ones) are still not
setting it in kernel generated messages. Without the flag, message parsers
not aware of attribute semantics (e.g. wireshark dissector or libmnl's
mnl_nlmsg_fprintf()) cannot recognize nested attributes and won't display
the structure of their contents.

Unfortunately we cannot just add the flag everywhere as there may be
userspace applications which check nlattr::nla_type directly rather than
through a helper masking out the flags. Therefore the patch renames
nla_nest_start() to nla_nest_start_noflag() and introduces nla_nest_start()
as a wrapper adding NLA_F_NESTED. The calls which add NLA_F_NESTED manually
are rewritten to use nla_nest_start().

Except for changes in include/net/netlink.h, the patch was generated using
this semantic patch:

@@ expression E1, E2; @@
-nla_nest_start(E1, E2)
+nla_nest_start_noflag(E1, E2)

@@ expression E1, E2; @@

<content type='text'>
Since stats updating is always consistent with TCQ_F_CPUSTATS flag,
we can disable it at qdisc creation time flipping such bit.

In my experiments, if the NOLOCK flag is cleared, per CPU stats
accounting does not give any measurable performance gain, but it
waste some memory.

Let's clear TCQ_F_CPUSTATS together with NOLOCK, when enslaving
a NOLOCK qdisc to 'lock' one.

Use stats update helper inside pfifo_fast, to cope correctly with
TCQ_F_CPUSTATS flag change.

As a side effect, q.qlen value for any child qdiscs is always
consistent for all lock classfull qdiscs.

<title>net_sched: return correct value for *notify* functions</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5b5f99b186906d198f4455b3add911c87ab361fc</id>
<content type='text'>
It is confusing to directly use return value of netlink_send()/
netlink_unicast() as the return value of *notify*, as it may be not
error at all.

Example: in tc_del_tfilter(), after calling tfilter_del_notify(), it will
goto errout if (err). However, the netlink_send()/netlink_unicast() will
return positive value even for successful case. So it may not call
tcf_chain_tp_remove() and so on to clean up the resource, as a result,
resource is leaked.

It may be easier to only check the return value of tfilter_del_nofiy(),
but it is more clean to correct all related functions.
