* net: get rid of some pointless casts to sockaddrMaciej Żenczykowski2012-03-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The following 4 functions: move_addr_to_kernel move_addr_to_user verify_iovec verify_compat_iovec are always effectively called with a sockaddr_storage. Make this explicit by changing their signature. This removes a large number of casts from sockaddr_storage to sockaddr. Signed-off-by: Maciej Żenczykowski <maze@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* | rtnetlink: Fix VF IFLA policyGreg Rose2012-03-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add VF spoof check to IFLA policy. The original patch I submitted to add the spoof checking feature to rtnl failed to add the proper policy rule that identifies the data type and len. This patch corrects that oversight. No bugs have been reported against this but it may cause some problem for the netlink message parsing that uses the policy table.

| * rtnetlink: Fix problem with buffer allocationGreg Rose2012-02-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement a new netlink attribute type IFLA_EXT_MASK. The mask is a 32 bit value that can be used to indicate to the kernel that certain extended ifinfo values are requested by the user application. At this time the only mask value defined is RTEXT_FILTER_VF to indicate that the user wants the ifinfo dump to send information about the VFs belonging to the interface. This patch fixes a bug in which certain applications do not have large enough buffers to accommodate the extra information returned by the kernel with large numbers of SR-IOV virtual functions. Those applications will not send the new netlink attribute with the interface info dump request netlink messages so they will not get unexpectedly large request buffers returned by the kernel. Modifies the rtnl_calcit function to traverse the list of net devices and compute the minimum buffer size that can hold the info dumps of all matching devices based upon the filter passed in via the new netlink attribute filter mask. If no filter mask is sent then the buffer allocation defaults to NLMSG_GOODSIZE. With this change it is possible to add yet to be defined netlink attributes to the dump request which should make it fairly extensible in the future.

| * neighbour: Fixed race condition at tbl->nhtMichel Machado2012-02-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the fixed race condition happens: 1. While function neigh_periodic_work scans the neighbor hash table pointed by field tbl->nht, it unlocks and locks tbl->lock between buckets in order to call cond_resched. 2. Assume that function neigh_periodic_work calls cond_resched, that is, the lock tbl->lock is available, and function neigh_hash_grow runs. 3. Once function neigh_hash_grow finishes, and RCU calls neigh_hash_free_rcu, the original struct neigh_hash_table that function neigh_periodic_work was using doesn't exist anymore. 4. Once back at neigh_periodic_work, whenever the old struct neigh_hash_table is accessed, things can go badly.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This one specifies where to start MSG_PEEK-ing queue data from. When set to negative value means that MSG_PEEK works as ususally -- peeks from the head of the queue always. When some bytes are peeked from queue and the peeking offset is non negative it is moved forward so that the next peek will return next portion of data. When non-peeking recvmsg occurs and the peeking offset is non negative is is moved backward so that the next peek will still peek the proper data (i.e. the one that would have been picked if there were no non peeking recv in between). The offset is set using per-proto opteration to let the protocol handle the locking issues and to check whether the peeking offset feature is supported by the protocol the socket belongs to.

* net: introduce res_counter_charge_nofail() for socket allocationsGlauber Costa2012-01-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a case in __sk_mem_schedule(), where an allocation is beyond the maximum, but yet we are allowed to proceed. It happens under the following condition: sk->sk_wmem_queued + size >= sk->sk_sndbuf The network code won't revert the allocation in this case, meaning that at some point later it'll try to do it. Since this is never communicated to the underlying res_counter code, there is an inbalance in res_counter uncharge operation. I see two ways of fixing this: 1) storing the information about those allocations somewhere in memcg, and then deducting from that first, before we start draining the res_counter, 2) providing a slightly different allocation function for the res_counter, that matches the original behavior of the network code more closely. I decided to go for #2 here, believing it to be more elegant, since #1 would require us to do basically that, but in a more obscure way.

| * net: WARN if skb_checksum_help() is called on skb requiring segmentationBen Hutchings2012-01-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | skb_checksum_help() has never done anything useful with skbs that require segmentation. Setting skb->ip_summed = CHECKSUM_NONE makes them invalid and provokes a later WARNing in skb_gso_segment(). Passing such an skb to skb_checksum_help() indicates a bug, so we should warn about it immediately. Move the warning from skb_gso_segment() into a shared function, and add gso_type and gso_size to it. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

The device model provides this information for most devices; we'll only lose it for some old ISA drivers.

| * security: remove the security_netlink_recv hook as it is equivalent to capable()Eric Paris2012-01-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Once upon a time netlink was not sync and we had to get the effective capabilities from the skb that was being received. Today we instead get the capabilities from the current task. This has rendered the entire purpose of the hook moot as it is now functionally equivalent to the capable() call.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | dev_uc_sync() and dev_mc_sync() are acquiring netif_addr_lock for destination device of synchronization. Since netif_addr_lock is already held at the time for source device, this triggers lockdep deadlock warning. There's no way this deadlock can happen so use spin_lock_nested() to silence the warning.
