2 daysnetlink: reset skb headers before unicast and multicast filteringKyle Zeng
Socket filters can use SKF_NET_OFF and SKF_LL_OFF to read relative to an skb's network and MAC headers. Netlink producers may reserve headroom without resetting those headers, allowing a receiving socket's filter to read data before the initialized message. For example, IWPM HELLO replies are allocated with dev_alloc_skb(), which reserves NET_SKB_PAD bytes. An unprivileged NETLINK_RDMA user can attach a classic socket filter and disclose this headroom through the length of the delivered reply. The resets in netlink_dump() do not help because IWPM sends a separately allocated skb through netlink_unicast(). Reset both headers before running the receiver's filter in unicast and broadcast delivery, as is already done for dump skbs. This also covers other netlink producers that reserve headroom without changing their allocation or message-building code.

2026-09-22genetlink: report the real command id for dump-only ops in policy dumpsJakub Kicinski
The op-to-policy map a CTRL_CMD_GETPOLICY dump returns is the only way for userspace to find out which policy index belongs to which command. ctrl_dumppolicy_put_op() tags the nest with doit->cmd, but an op which only has a dumpit has no doit and every path which fills the split ops in zeroes it out, so those entries all claim to be command 0. nlctrl's own CTRL_CMD_GETPOLICY and NETDEV_CMD_QSTATS_GET are both in that group: [{'family-id': 16, 'op-policy': {'do': 0, 'dump': 0, 'op-id': 3}}, {'family-id': 16, 'op-policy': {'dump': 1, 'op-id': 0}}, ctrl_fill_info() gets this right - it uses the iterator's cmd for CTRL_ATTR_OP_ID - so the two introspection interfaces of the same family contradict each other today. Pass the command in rather than reconstructing it from doit->cmd | dumpit->cmd inside the helper, both callers already have it.

2026-09-15netlink: do not free nlk->groups while lockless readers can use itEric Dumazet
netlink_realloc_groups() uses krealloc() under netlink_table_grab(). Whenever NLGRPSZ(groups) lands in a different kmalloc bucket, the old bitmap is freed immediately. Two readers of nlk->groups / nlk->ngroups do not hold the netlink table lock: 1) sk_diag_dump_groups(). Hashed (bound) sockets are dumped from the rhashtable walk in __netlink_diag_dump(), which only holds RCU. Only the mc_list part of the dump takes nl_table_lock. 2) netlink_native_seq_show() (/proc/net/netlink), whose walk has been lockless since commit 21e4902aea80 ("netlink: Lockless lookup with RCU grace period in socket release"). Both can read a freed buffer, and sk_diag_dump_groups() can also read past the end of the old (smaller) buffer if it happens to load the old @groups pointer together with the new @ngroups value, copying the result into a NETLINK_DIAG_GROUPS attribute. This is the same class of bug that commit f773608026ee ("netlink: access nlk groups safely in netlink bind and getname") fixed for bind() and getname(); these two readers were missed. Simply grabbing the table lock in sk_diag_dump_groups() is not an option, because it is also called with nl_table_lock already held from the mc_list section of the dump. Make the lockless readers safe instead: - Allocate a new bitmap and free the old one after an RCU grace period, instead of relying on the implicit kfree() done by krealloc(). - Publish @groups before @ngroups, both with release semantics, and have the lockless readers load @ngroups first. A reader can then never pair the new (bigger) size with the old (smaller) buffer, and a reader picking up the new pointer while still seeing the old size is guaranteed to see the initialized bitmap. netlink_realloc_groups() is called from process context (bind() and setsockopt()), so kfree_rcu_mightsleep() can be used, once the table has been released.

2026-09-15netlink: policy: report the big endian attributesJakub Kicinski
Paolo pointed out an issue flagged at low priority by Sashiko - we're currently not handling BE{16,32} attributes in policy dumps. Commit 3f4285d741b4 ("netlink: specs: fou: local-v4 and peer-v4 are big endian") flipped two fou attributes from NLA_U32 to NLA_BE32. This made them vanish from the policy dump. Follow the YAML spec format and treat byte order as a property of a u16 / u32 rather than a type of its own. I don't have a strong preference either way. The YNL format "feels cleaner" but the kernel's separate type is easier when handling decoding. I don't think that the policy type is actually usable for decoding (since it only contains input types) so I went with YNL and added the separate attr. A missing byte order means host order, again like in the YAML specs.

2026-09-03genetlink: pin family module during policy dumpXingWang Xiang
The generic netlink controller's policy dump keeps pointers to the target family's operation and policy tables in its callback state. A dump may be split across multiple skbs and remain pending after the initial request. Netlink pins the module which owns the dump callback, but in this case that is the controller's owner rather than the target family's owner. The target family can consequently be unregistered and its module unloaded while a policy dump is pending. Advancing the dump then dereferences policy memory from the unloaded module. Take a reference to the target family's module when the dump starts. Drop it from the error and done paths. This matches the lifetime for which the dump context retains the family and policy pointers.

2026-09-02net: Replace %pK output with 0Sebastian Andrzej Siewior
Commit 71338aa7d050c ("net: convert %p usage to %pK") which is from 2011 and changed the %p annotation for pointer to %pK. Back then the default behaviour for %p was to print the pointer. The %pK modifier was introduced to able to control the behaviour of specific pointer values without changing the behaviour of %p for everyone. It was dedicated to avoid leaking pointers via /proc. There was also the idea to remove the check from formatting the string and move to the open callback with some helpers but this did not happen. Things changed over time. The default behaviour for %p is now to print a hash pointer which does not leak the address but allows to correlate if two pointers are equal. The policy on %p is to not introduce new ones. This is somehow in between since it already exists. The pointer are usually socket pointers and I don't see any value in exposing them. Therefore I am following the recommendation of removing them. Since their usage in /proc/ can be considered ABI I replace the pointer with a 0. Replace the %pK annotation with 0 value. Correct the spacing for the cases where pointer is at the beginning.

2026-05-22net: netlink: don't set nsid on local notificationsIlya Maximets
In most cases, notifications on sockets with NETLINK_LISTEN_ALL_NSID do not contain NSID in their ancillary data in case the event is local to the listener. However, when a self-referential NSID is allocated for a namespace, every local notification starts sending this ID to the user space. This is problematic, because the listener cannot tell if those notifications are local or not anymore without making extra requests to figure out if the provided NSID is local or not. The listener can also not figure out the local NSID beforehand as it can be allocated at any point in time by other processes, changing the structure of the future notifications for everyone. The value is practically not useful, since it's the namespace's own ID that the application has to obtain from other sources in order to figure out if it's the same or not. So, for the application it's just an extra busy work with no benefits. Moreover, applications that do not know about this quirk may be mishandling notifications with NSID set as notifications from remote namespaces. This is the case for ovs-vswitchd and the iproute2's 'ip monitor' that stops printing 'current' and starts printing the nsid number mid-session. Lack of clear documentation for this behavior is also not helping. A search though open-source projects doesn't reveal any projects that use NETNSA_NSID_NOT_ASSIGNED and rely on metadata to contain self-referential NSIDs (expected, since the value is not useful). Quite the opposite, as already mentioned, there are few applications that rely on NSID to not be present in local events. Since the value is not useful and actively harmful in some cases, let's not report it for local events, making the notifications more consistent. Also adding some blank lines for readability.

If the current skb is not shared, it is re-used directly for all the sockets subscribed to the notification. If we have remote all-nsid socket receiving a message first, then the 'nsid_is_set' will be set to 'true'. If the nsid is NOT_ASSIGNED for the next socket in the list, the 'nsid_is_set' will remain 'true' and the negative value is be delivered to the user space. All subsequent nsid values will be delivered as well, since there is no code path that sets the flag back to 'false'. Fix that by always dropping the flag to 'false' first.

2026-05-08genetlink: free the skb on 'group >= family->n_mcgrps'Alice Ryhl
These methods generally consume ownership of the provided skb, so even if an error path is encountered, the skb is freed. This is because the very first thing they do after some initial setup is to unconditionally consume the skb via consume_skb(skb). Any subsequent errors lead to the core netlink layer freeing the skb. However, there is one check that occurs before ownership is passed, which is the check for the group index. So if this error condition is encountered, then the skb is leaked. This error condition is generally considered a violation of the netlink API, so it's not expected to occur under normal circumstances. For the same reason, no callers check for this error condition, and no callers need to be adjusted. However, we should still follow the same ownership semantics of the rest of the function. Thus, free the skb in this codepath.

2026-03-12genetlink: apply reject policy for split ops on the dispatch pathJakub Kicinski
Commit 4fa86555d1cd ("genetlink: piggy back on resv_op to default to a reject policy") added genl_policy_reject_all to ensure that ops without an explicit policy reject all attributes rather than silently accepting them. This change was applied to net. When split ops were later introduced in net-next in commit b8fd60c36a44 ("genetlink: allow families to use split ops directly"), genl_op_fill_in_reject_policy_split() was added and called from genl_op_from_split() (used for policy dumping and registration). However, genl_get_cmd_split(), which is called for incoming messages, copies split_ops entries as-is without applying the reject policy. This means that split ops without policy accept all inputs. This looks like an omission / mistake made when splitting the changes between net and net-next. Let's try to re-introduce the checking. Not considering this a fix given the regression potential. If anyone reports issues we should probably fill in fake policies for specific ops rather than reverting this.

2026-03-12genetlink: use maxattr of 0 for the reject policyJakub Kicinski
Commit 4fa86555d1cd ("genetlink: piggy back on resv_op to default to a reject policy") added genl_policy_reject_all to ensure that ops without an explicit policy reject all attributes rather than silently accepting them. The reject policy had maxattr of 1. Passing info->attrs of size 2 may surprise families. Devlink, for instance, assumes that if info->attrs is set it's safe to access DEVLINK_ATTR_BUS_NAME (1) and DEVLINK_ATTR_DEV_NAME (2). Before plugging reject policies into split ops we need to make sure the genetlink code will not populate info->attrs if family had no explicit policy for the op. While even shared code paths within the families can figure out that given op has no policy fairly easily themselves, passing attrs with fixed size of 2 feels fairly useless and error prone. This change has no user-visible impact, reject attrs are not reported to the user space via getpolicy. We do have to remove the safety check in netlink_policy_dump_get_policy_idx() but it seems to have been there to catch likely faulty input, the code can handle maxattr = 0 just fine.

2026-03-06net: change sock.sk_ino and sock_i_ino() to u64Jeff Layton
inode->i_ino is being converted to a u64. sock.sk_ino (which caches the inode number) must also be widened to avoid truncation on 32-bit architectures where unsigned long is only 32 bits. Change sk_ino from unsigned long to u64, and update the return type of sock_i_ino() to match. Fix all format strings that print the result of sock_i_ino() (%lu -> %llu), and widen the intermediate variables and function parameters in the diag modules that were using int to hold the inode number. Note that the UAPI socket diag structures (inet_diag_msg.idiag_inode, unix_diag_msg.udiag_ino, etc.) are all __u32 and cannot be changed without breaking the ABI. The assignments to those fields will silently truncate, which is the existing behavior.

2026-02-21Convert more 'alloc_obj' cases to default GFP_KERNEL argumentsLinus Torvalds
This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next line. Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial. So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed' scripts. The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want whitespace cleanup anyway. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2026-02-21Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argumentLinus Torvalds
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' | xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/' to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL argument to just drop that argument. Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered: they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically. For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate conversion. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2025-09-08genetlink: fix genl_bind() invoking bind() after -EPERMAlok Tiwari
Per family bind/unbind callbacks were introduced to allow families to track multicast group consumer presence, e.g. to start or stop producing events depending on listeners. However, in genl_bind() the bind() callback was invoked even if capability checks failed and ret was set to -EPERM. This means that callbacks could run on behalf of unauthorized callers while the syscall still returned failure to user space. Fix this by only invoking bind() after "if (ret) break;" check i.e. after permission checks have succeeded.

Followup of commit c51da3f7a161 ("net: remove sock_i_uid()") A recent syzbot report was the trigger for this change. Over the years, we had many problems caused by the read_lock[_bh](&sk->sk_callback_lock) in sock_i_uid(). We could fix smc_diag_dump_proto() or make a more radical move: Instead of waiting for new syzbot reports, cache the socket inode number in sk->sk_ino, so that we no longer need to acquire sk->sk_callback_lock in sock_i_ino(). This makes socket dumps faster (one less cache line miss, and two atomic ops avoided).

2025-07-30netlink: avoid infinite retry looping in netlink_unicast()Fedor Pchelkin
netlink_attachskb() checks for the socket's read memory allocation constraints. Firstly, it has: rmem < READ_ONCE(sk->sk_rcvbuf) to check if the just increased rmem value fits into the socket's receive buffer. If not, it proceeds and tries to wait for the memory under: rmem + skb->truesize > READ_ONCE(sk->sk_rcvbuf) The checks don't cover the case when skb->truesize + sk->sk_rmem_alloc is equal to sk->sk_rcvbuf. Thus the function neither successfully accepts these conditions, nor manages to reschedule the task - and is called in retry loop for indefinite time which is caught as: rcu: INFO: rcu_sched self-detected stall on CPU rcu: 0-....: (25999 ticks this GP) idle=ef2/1/0x4000000000000000 softirq=262269/262269 fqs=6212 (t=26000 jiffies g=230833 q=259957) NMI backtrace for cpu 0 CPU: 0 PID: 22 Comm: kauditd Not tainted 5.10.240 #68 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.17.0-4.fc42 04/01/2014 Call Trace: <IRQ> dump_stack lib/dump_stack.c:120 nmi_cpu_backtrace.cold lib/nmi_backtrace.c:105 nmi_trigger_cpumask_backtrace lib/nmi_backtrace.c:62 rcu_dump_cpu_stacks kernel/rcu/tree_stall.h:335 rcu_sched_clock_irq.cold kernel/rcu/tree.c:2590 update_process_times kernel/time/timer.c:1953 tick_sched_handle kernel/time/tick-sched.c:227 tick_sched_timer kernel/time/tick-sched.c:1399 __hrtimer_run_queues kernel/time/hrtimer.c:1652 hrtimer_interrupt kernel/time/hrtimer.c:1717 __sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic.c:1113 asm_call_irq_on_stack arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:808 </IRQ> netlink_attachskb net/netlink/af_netlink.c:1234 netlink_unicast net/netlink/af_netlink.c:1349 kauditd_send_queue kernel/audit.c:776 kauditd_thread kernel/audit.c:897 kthread kernel/kthread.c:328 ret_from_fork arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:304 Restore the original behavior of the check which commit in Fixes accidentally missed when restructuring the code.

2025-07-11netlink: make sure we allow at least one dump skbJakub Kicinski
Commit under Fixes tightened up the memory accounting for Netlink sockets. Looks like the accounting is too strict for some existing use cases, Marek reported issues with nl80211 / WiFi iw CLI. To reduce number of iterations Netlink dumps try to allocate messages based on the size of the buffer passed to previous recvmsg() calls. If user space uses a larger buffer in recvmsg() than sk_rcvbuf we will allocate an skb we won't be able to queue. Make sure we always allow at least one skb to be queued. Same workaround is already present in netlink_attachskb(). Alternative would be to cap the allocation size to rcvbuf - rmem_alloc but as I said, the workaround is already present in other places.

2025-07-07netlink: Fix wraparounds of sk->sk_rmem_alloc.Kuniyuki Iwashima
Netlink has this pattern in some places if (atomic_read(&sk->sk_rmem_alloc) > sk->sk_rcvbuf) atomic_add(skb->truesize, &sk->sk_rmem_alloc); , which has the same problem fixed by commit 5a465a0da13e ("udp: Fix multiple wraparounds of sk->sk_rmem_alloc."). For example, if we set INT_MAX to SO_RCVBUFFORCE, the condition is always false as the two operands are of int. Then, a single socket can eat as many skb as possible until OOM happens, and we can see multiple wraparounds of sk->sk_rmem_alloc. Let's fix it by using atomic_add_return() and comparing the two variables as unsigned int.

2025-02-21net: better track kernel sockets lifetimeEric Dumazet
While kernel sockets are dismantled during pernet_operations->exit(), their freeing can be delayed by any tx packets still held in qdisc or device queues, due to skb_set_owner_w() prior calls. This then trigger the following warning from ref_tracker_dir_exit() [1] To fix this, make sure that kernel sockets own a reference on net->passive. Add sk_net_refcnt_upgrade() helper, used whenever a kernel socket is converted to a refcounted one.

2025-02-18netlink: Unset cb_running when terminating dump on releaseSiddh Raman Pant
When we terminated the dump, the callback isn't running, so cb_running should be set to false to be logically consistent. cb_running signifies whether a dump is ongoing. It is set to true in cb->start(), and is checked in netlink_dump() to be true initially. After the dump, it is set to false in the same function. This is just a cleanup, no path should access this field on a closed socket.

2024-12-19net: netlink: catch attempts to send empty messagesJakub Kicinski
syzbot can figure out a way to redirect a netlink message to a tap. Sending empty skbs to devices is not valid and we end up hitting a skb_assert_len() in __dev_queue_xmit(). Make catching these mistakes easier, assert the skb size directly in netlink core.

2024-11-24netlink: fix false positive warning in extack during dumpsJakub Kicinski
Commit under fixes extended extack reporting to dumps. It works under normal conditions, because extack errors are usually reported during ->start() or the first ->dump(), it's quite rare that the dump starts okay but fails later. If the dump does fail later, however, the input skb will already have the initiating message pulled, so checking if bad attr falls within skb->data will fail. Switch the check to using nlh, which is always valid. syzbot found a way to hit that scenario by filling up the receive queue. In this case we initiate a dump but don't call ->dump() until there is read space for an skb.
