The BPF verifier conflict was some minor contextual issue.

The TUN conflict was less trivial.  Cong Wang fixed a memory leak of
tfile->tx_array in 'net'.  This is an skb_array.  But meanwhile in
net-next tun changed tfile->tx_arry into tfile->tx_ring which is a
ptr_ring.

Xin Long cd443f1e91 netlink: reset extack earlier in netlink_rcv_skb
Move up the extack reset/initialization in netlink_rcv_skb, so that
those 'goto ack' will not skip it. Otherwise, later on netlink_ack
may use the uninitialized extack and cause kernel crash.

David Ahern cbbdf8433a netlink: extack needs to be reset each time through loop
syzbot triggered the WARN_ON in netlink_ack testing the bad_attr value.
The problem is that netlink_rcv_skb loops over the skb repeatedly invoking
the callback and without resetting the extack leaving potentially stale
data. Initializing each time through avoids the WARN_ON.

Tom Herbert 97a6ec4ac0 rhashtable: Change rhashtable_walk_start to return void
Most callers of rhashtable_walk_start don't care about a resize event
which is indicated by a return value of -EAGAIN. So calls to
rhashtable_walk_start are wrapped wih code to ignore -EAGAIN. Something
like this is common:

       ret = rhashtable_walk_start(rhiter);
       if (ret && ret != -EAGAIN)
               goto out;

Since zero and -EAGAIN are the only possible return values from the
function this check is pointless. The condition never evaluates to true.

This patch changes rhashtable_walk_start to return void. This simplifies
code for the callers that ignore -EAGAIN. For the few cases where the
caller cares about the resize event, particularly where the table can be
walked in mulitple parts for netlink or seq file dump, the function
rhashtable_walk_start_check has been added that returns -EAGAIN on a
resize event.

Jason A. Donenfeld 0642840b8b af_netlink: ensure that NLMSG_DONE never fails in dumps
The way people generally use netlink_dump is that they fill in the skb
as much as possible, breaking when nla_put returns an error. Then, they
get called again and start filling out the next skb, and again, and so
forth. The mechanism at work here is the ability for the iterative
dumping function to detect when the skb is filled up and not fill it
past the brim, waiting for a fresh skb for the rest of the data.

However, if the attributes are small and nicely packed, it is possible
that a dump callback function successfully fills in attributes until the
skb is of size 4080 (libmnl's default page-sized receive buffer size).
The dump function completes, satisfied, and then, if it happens to be
that this is actually the last skb, and no further ones are to be sent,
then netlink_dump will add on the NLMSG_DONE part:

  nlh = nlmsg_put_answer(skb, cb, NLMSG_DONE, sizeof(len), NLM_F_MULTI);

It is very important that netlink_dump does this, of course. However, in
this example, that call to nlmsg_put_answer will fail, because the
previous filling by the dump function did not leave it enough room. And
how could it possibly have done so? All of the nla_put variety of
functions simply check to see if the skb has enough tailroom,
independent of the context it is in.

In order to keep the important assumptions of all netlink dump users, it
is therefore important to give them an skb that has this end part of the
tail already reserved, so that the call to nlmsg_put_answer does not
fail. Otherwise, library authors are forced to find some bizarre sized
receive buffer that has a large modulo relative to the common sizes of
messages received, which is ugly and buggy.

This patch thus saves the NLMSG_DONE for an additional message, for the
case that things are dangerously close to the brim. This requires
keeping track of the errno from ->dump() across calls.

Greg Kroah-Hartman b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

There were quite a few overlapping sets of changes here.

Daniel's bug fix for off-by-ones in the new BPF branch instructions,
along with the added allowances for "data_end > ptr + x" forms
collided with the metadata additions.

Along with those three changes came veritifer test cases, which in
their final form I tried to group together properly.  If I had just
trimmed GIT's conflict tags as-is, this would have split up the
meta tests unnecessarily.

In the socketmap code, a set of preemption disabling changes
overlapped with the rename of bpf_compute_data_end() to
bpf_compute_data_pointers().

Changes were made to the mv88e6060.c driver set addr method
which got removed in net-next.

The hyperv transport socket layer had a locking change in 'net'
which overlapped with a change of socket state macro usage
in 'net-next'.

It seems that it's possible to toggle NETLINK_F_EXT_ACK
through setsockopt() while another thread/CPU is building
a message inside netlink_ack(), which could then trigger
the WARN_ON()s I added since if it goes from being turned
off to being turned on between allocating and filling the
message, the skb could end up being too small.

Avoid this whole situation by storing the value of this
flag in a separate variable and using that throughout the

Johannes Berg a2084f5650 netlink: use NETLINK_CB(in_skb).sk instead of looking it up
When netlink_ack() reports an allocation error to the sending
socket, there's no need to look up the sending socket since
it's available in the SKB's CB. Use that instead of going to
the trouble of looking it up.

Note that the pointer is only available since Eric Biederman's
commit 3fbc290540 ("netlink: Make the sending netlink socket availabe in NETLINK_CB")
which is far newer than the original lookup code (Oct 2003)
(though the field was called 'ssk' in that commit and only got
renamed to 'sk' later, I'd actually argue 'ssk' was better - or
perhaps it should've been 'source_sk' - since there are so many
different 'sk's involved.)

Jason A. Donenfeld 41c87425a1 netlink: do not set cb_running if dump's start() errs
It turns out that multiple places can call netlink_dump(), which means
it's still possible to dereference partially initialized values in
dump() that were the result of a faulty returned start().

This fixes the issue by calling start() _before_ setting cb_running to
true, so that there's no chance at all of hitting the dump() function
through any indirect paths.

It also moves the call to start() to be when the mutex is held. This has
the nice side effect of serializing invocations to start(), which is
likely desirable anyway. It also prevents any possible other races that
might come out of this logic.

In testing this with several different pieces of tricky code to trigger
these issues, this commit fixes all avenues that I'm aware of.

Jason A. Donenfeld fef0035c0f netlink: do not proceed if dump's start() errs
Drivers that use the start method for netlink dumping rely on dumpit not
being called if start fails. For example, ila_xlat.c allocates memory
and assigns it to cb->args[0] in its start() function. It might fail to
do that and return -ENOMEM instead. However, even when returning an
error, dumpit will be called, which, in the example above, quickly
dereferences the memory in cb->args[0], which will OOPS the kernel. This
is but one example of how this goes wrong.

Since start() has always been a function with an int return type, it
therefore makes sense to use it properly, rather than ignoring it. This
patch thus returns early and does not call dumpit() when start() fails.

and nlk groups' accessing in sk_diag_dump_groups. The similar issue also
exists in netlink_seq_show().

This patch is to defer nlk groups' free in deferred_put_nlk_sk.

Reshetova, Elena 41c6d650f6 net: convert sock.sk_refcnt from atomic_t to refcount_t
refcount_t type and corresponding API should be
used instead of atomic_t when the variable is used as
a reference counter. This allows to avoid accidental
refcounter overflows that might lead to use-after-free
situations.

This patch uses refcount_inc_not_zero() instead of
atomic_inc_not_zero_hint() due to absense of a _hint()
version of refcount API. If the hint() version must
be used, we might need to revisit API.

Johannes Berg 4df864c1d9 networking: make skb_put & friends return void pointers
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 (skb_put, __skb_put and pskb_put) return void *

where the unsigned char pointer was used directly, all done with the
following spatch:

    type T;
    @@
    - E = ((T *)(fn(SKB, LEN)))
    + E = fn(SKB, LEN)

which actually doesn't cover pskb_put since there are only three
users overall.

A handful of stragglers were converted manually, notably a macro in
drivers/isdn/i4l/isdn_bsdcomp.c and, oddly enough, one of the many
instances in net/bluetooth/hci_sock.c. In the former file, I also
had to fix one whitespace problem spatch introduced.

Nicolas Dichtel 7212462fa6 netlink: don't send unknown nsid
The NETLINK_F_LISTEN_ALL_NSID otion enables to listen all netns that have a
nsid assigned into the netns where the netlink socket is opened.
The nsid is sent as metadata to userland, but the existence of this nsid is
checked only for netns that are different from the socket netns. Thus, if
no nsid is assigned to the socket netns, NETNSA_NSID_NOT_ASSIGNED is
reported to the userland. This value is confusing and useless.
After this patch, only valid nsid are sent to userland.

Johannes Berg ba0dc5f6e0 netlink: allow sending extended ACK with cookie on success
Now that we have extended error reporting and a new message format for
netlink ACK messages, also extend this to be able to return arbitrary
cookie data on success.

This will allow, for example, nl80211 to not send an extra message for
cookies identifying newly created objects, but return those directly
in the ACK message.

The cookie data size is currently limited to 20 bytes (since Jamal
talked about using SHA1 for identifiers.)

sock_diag is a new interface which is used instead of proc files, so it

Stanislaw Gruszka 1d2a6a5e4b genetlink: fix counting regression on ctrl_dumpfamily()
Commit 2ae0f17df1 ("genetlink: use idr to track families") replaced

	if (++n < fams_to_skip)
		continue;
into:

	if (n++ < fams_to_skip)
		continue;

This subtle change cause that on retry ctrl_dumpfamily() call we omit
one family that failed to do ctrl_fill_info() on previous call, because
cb->args[0] = n number counts also family that failed to do
ctrl_fill_info().

Patch fixes the problem and avoid confusion in the future just decrease
n counter when ctrl_fill_info() fail.

User visible problem caused by this bug is failure to get access to
some genetlink family i.e. nl80211. However problem is reproducible
only if number of registered genetlink families is big enough to
cause second call of ctrl_dumpfamily().

Subject: netlink: Annotate nlk cb_mutex by protocol

Currently all occurences of nlk->cb_mutex are annotated by lockdep
as a single class.  This causes a false lcokdep cycle involving
genl and crypto_user.

This patch fixes it by dividing cb_mutex into individual classes
based on the netlink protocol.  As genl and crypto_user do not
use the same netlink protocol this breaks the false dependency
loop.

Eric Dumazet 158f323b98 net: adjust skb->truesize in pskb_expand_head()
Slava Shwartsman reported a warning in skb_try_coalesce(), when we
detect skb->truesize is completely wrong.

In his case, issue came from IPv6 reassembly coping with malicious
datagrams, that forced various pskb_may_pull() to reallocate a bigger
skb->head than the one allocated by NIC driver before entering GRO
layer.

Current code does not change skb->truesize, leaving this burden to
callers if they care enough.

Blindly changing skb->truesize in pskb_expand_head() is not
easy, as some producers might track skb->truesize, for example
in xmit path for back pressure feedback (sk->sk_wmem_alloc)

We can detect the cases where it should be safe to change
skb->truesize :

1) skb is not attached to a socket.
2) If it is attached to a socket, destructor is sock_edemux()

My audit gave only two callers doing their own skb->truesize
manipulation.

I had to remove skb parameter in sock_edemux macro when
CONFIG_INET is not set to avoid a compile error.

3) In 'net' we had several probe error path bug fixes to the
   stmmac driver, meanwhile a lot of this code was cleaned up
   and reorganized in 'net-next'.

4) The cls_flower classifier obtained a helper function in
   'net-next' called __fl_delete() and this overlapped with
   Daniel Borkamann's bug fix to use RCU for object destruction
   in 'net'.  It also overlapped with Jiri's change to guard
   the rhashtable_remove_fast() call with a check against
   tc_skip_sw().

5) In mlx4, a revert bug fix in 'net' overlapped with some
   unrelated changes in 'net-next'.

6) In geneve, a stale header pointer after pskb_expand_head()
   bug fix in 'net' overlapped with a large reorganization of

Now genl_register_family() is the only thing (other than the
users themselves, perhaps, but I didn't find any doing that)
writing to the family struct.

In all families that I found, genl_register_family() is only
called from __init functions (some indirectly, in which case
I've add __init annotations to clarifly things), so all can
actually be marked __ro_after_init.

This protects the data structure from accidental corruption.

Since generic netlink family IDs are small integers, allocated
densely, IDR is an ideal match for lookups. Replace the existing
hand-written hash-table with IDR for allocation and lookup.

This lets the families only be written to once, during register,
since the list_head can be removed and removal of a family won't
cause any writes.

It also slightly reduces the code size (by about 1.3k on x86-64).

Johannes Berg a07ea4d994 genetlink: no longer support using static family IDs
Static family IDs have never really been used, the only
use case was the workaround I introduced for those users
that assumed their family ID was also their multicast
group ID.

Additionally, because static family IDs would never be
reserved by the generic netlink code, using a relatively
low ID would only work for built-in families that can be
registered immediately after generic netlink is started,
which is basically only the control family (apart from
the workaround code, which I also had to add code for so
it would reserve those IDs)

Thus, anything other than GENL_ID_GENERATE is flawed and
luckily not used except in the cases I mentioned. Move
those workarounds into a few lines of code, and then get
rid of GENL_ID_GENERATE entirely, making it more robust.

Eric Dumazet d35c99ff77 netlink: do not enter direct reclaim from netlink_dump()
Since linux-3.15, netlink_dump() can use up to 16384 bytes skb
allocations.

Due to struct skb_shared_info ~320 bytes overhead, we end up using
order-3 (on x86) page allocations, that might trigger direct reclaim and
add stress.

The intent was really to attempt a large allocation but immediately
fallback to a smaller one (order-1 on x86) in case of memory stress.

On recent kernels (linux-4.4), we can remove __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM to
meet the goal. Old kernels would need to remove __GFP_WAIT

While we are at it, since we do an order-3 allocation, allow to use
all the allocated bytes instead of 16384 to reduce syscalls during
large dumps.

iproute2 already uses 32KB recvmsg() buffer sizes.

Alexei provided an initial patch downsizing to SKB_WITH_OVERHEAD(16384)

Dmitry Ivanov e272602039 netlink: don't send NETLINK_URELEASE for unbound sockets
All existing users of NETLINK_URELEASE use it to clean up resources that
were previously allocated to a socket via some command. As a result, no
users require getting this notification for unbound sockets.

Sending it for unbound sockets, however, is a problem because any user
(including unprivileged users) can create a socket that uses the same ID
as an existing socket. Binding this new socket will fail, but if the
NETLINK_URELEASE notification is generated for such sockets, the users
thereof will be tricked into thinking the socket that they allocated the
resources for is closed.

In the nl80211 case, this will cause destruction of virtual interfaces
that still belong to an existing hostapd process; this is the case that
Dmitry noticed. In the NFC case, it will cause a poll abort. In the case
of netlink log/queue it will cause them to stop reporting events, as if
NFULNL_CFG_CMD_UNBIND/NFQNL_CFG_CMD_UNBIND had been called.

Fix this problem by checking that the socket is bound before generating
the NETLINK_URELEASE notification.

Florian Westphal d1b4c689d4 netlink: remove mmapped netlink support
mmapped netlink has a number of unresolved issues:

- TX zerocopy support had to be disabled more than a year ago via
  commit 4682a03586 ("netlink: Always copy on mmap TX.")
  because the content of the mmapped area can change after netlink
  attribute validation but before message processing.

- RX support was implemented mainly to speed up nfqueue dumping packet
  payload to userspace.  However, since commit ae08ce0021
  ("netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: zero copy support") we avoid one copy
  with the socket-based interface too (via the skb_zerocopy helper).

The other problem is that skbs attached to mmaped netlink socket
behave different from normal skbs:

- they don't have a shinfo area, so all functions that use skb_shinfo()
(e.g. skb_clone) cannot be used.

- reserving headroom prevents userspace from seeing the content as
it expects message to start at skb->head.
See for instance
commit aa3a022094 ("netlink: not trim skb for mmaped socket when dump").

- skbs handed e.g. to netlink_ack must have non-NULL skb->sk, else we
crash because it needs the sk to check if a tx ring is attached.

Also not obvious, leads to non-intuitive bug fixes such as 7c7bdf359
("netfilter: nfnetlink: use original skbuff when acking batches").

mmaped netlink also didn't play nicely with the skb_zerocopy helper
used by nfqueue and openvswitch.  Daniel Borkmann fixed this via
commit 6bb0fef489 ("netlink, mmap: fix edge-case leakages in nf queue
zero-copy")' but at the cost of also needing to provide remaining
length to the allocation function.

nfqueue also has problems when used with mmaped rx netlink:
- mmaped netlink doesn't allow use of nfqueue batch verdict messages.
  Problem is that in the mmap case, the allocation time also determines
  the ordering in which the frame will be seen by userspace (A
  allocating before B means that A is located in earlier ring slot,
  but this also means that B might get a lower sequence number then A
  since seqno is decided later.  To fix this we would need to extend the
  spinlocked region to also cover the allocation and message setup which
  isn't desirable.
- nfqueue can now be configured to queue large (GSO) skbs to userspace.
  Queing GSO packets is faster than having to force a software segmentation
  in the kernel, so this is a desirable option.  However, with a mmap based
  ring one has to use 64kb per ring slot element, else mmap has to fall back
  to the socket path (NL_MMAP_STATUS_COPY) for all large packets.

To use the mmap interface, userspace not only has to probe for mmap netlink
support, it also has to implement a recv/socket receive path in order to
handle messages that exceed the size of an rx ring element.

Mel Gorman d0164adc89 mm, page_alloc: distinguish between being unable to sleep, unwilling to sleep and avoiding waking kswapd
__GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold
spinlocks or are in interrupts.  They are expected to be high priority and
have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred
to as the "atomic reserve".  __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first
lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve".

Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options
were available.  Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where
an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic
reserves.

This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic,
cannot sleep and have no alternative.  High priority users continue to use
__GFP_HIGH.  __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and
are willing to enter direct reclaim.  __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify
callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim.  __GFP_WAIT is
redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake
kswapd for background reclaim.

This patch then converts a number of sites

o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory
  pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag.

o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear
  __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall
  into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves
  are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress.

o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the
  helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because
  checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false
  positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent
  is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to
  flag manipulations.

o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL
  and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.

The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT
and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons.
In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH.

The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of
GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL.  They may
now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.  It's almost certainly harmless
if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.

David Herrmann 47191d65b6 netlink: fix locking around NETLINK_LIST_MEMBERSHIPS
Currently, NETLINK_LIST_MEMBERSHIPS grabs the netlink table while copying
the membership state to user-space. However, grabing the netlink table is
effectively a write_lock_irq(), and as such we should not be triggering
page-faults in the critical section.

This can be easily reproduced by the following snippet:
    int s = socket(AF_NETLINK, SOCK_RAW, NETLINK_ROUTE);
    void *p = mmap(0, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANON, -1, 0);
    int r = getsockopt(s, 0x10e, 9, p, (void*)((char*)p + 4092));

This should work just fine, but currently triggers EFAULT and a possible
WARN_ON below handle_mm_fault().

Fix this by reducing locking of NETLINK_LIST_MEMBERSHIPS to a read-side
lock. The write-lock was overkill in the first place, and the read-lock
allows page-faults just fine.

Arad, Ronen db65a3aaf2 netlink: Trim skb to alloc size to avoid MSG_TRUNC
netlink_dump() allocates skb based on the calculated min_dump_alloc or
a per socket max_recvmsg_len.
min_alloc_size is maximum space required for any single netdev
attributes as calculated by rtnl_calcit().
max_recvmsg_len tracks the user provided buffer to netlink_recvmsg.
It is capped at 16KiB.
The intention is to avoid small allocations and to minimize the number
of calls required to obtain dump information for all net devices.

netlink_dump packs as many small messages as could fit within an skb
that was sized for the largest single netdev information. The actual
space available within an skb is larger than what is requested. It could
be much larger and up to near 2x with align to next power of 2 approach.

Allowing netlink_dump to use all the space available within the
allocated skb increases the buffer size a user has to provide to avoid
truncaion (i.e. MSG_TRUNG flag set).

It was observed that with many VLANs configured on at least one netdev,
a larger buffer of near 64KiB was necessary to avoid "Message truncated"
error in "ip link" or "bridge [-c[ompressvlans]] vlan show" when
min_alloc_size was only little over 32KiB.

This patch trims skb to allocated size in order to allow the user to
avoid truncation with more reasonable buffer size.

OK I've decided to drop the acquire/release helpers as they don't
help us at all and simply pessimises the code by using full memory
barriers (on some architectures) where only a write or read barrier
is needed.

But you are right we do need an explicit write barrier here to
ensure that the hashing is visible.

It's not about being overly smart.  It's about actually understanding
what's going on with the code.  I've seen too many instances of
people simply sprinkling synchronisation primitives around without
any knowledge of what is happening underneath, which is just a recipe
for creating hard-to-debug races.

The reason this one is OK is because we do not use nlk->portid or
try to get nlk from the hash table before we return to user-space.

However, there is a real bug here that none of these acquire/release
helpers discovered.  The two bound tests here used to be a single
one.  Now that they are separate it is entirely possible for another
thread to come in the middle and bind the socket.  So we need to
repeat the portid check in order to maintain consistency.

Ditto.

The commit 1f770c0a09 ("netlink:
Fix autobind race condition that leads to zero port ID") created
some new races that can occur due to inconcsistencies between the
two port IDs.

Tejun is right that a barrier is unavoidable.  Therefore I am
reverting to the original patch that used a boolean to indicate
that a user netlink socket has been bound.

Barriers have been added where necessary to ensure that a valid
portid and the hashed socket is visible.

I have also changed netlink_insert to only return EBUSY if the
socket is bound to a portid different to the requested one.  This
combined with only reading nlk->bound once in netlink_bind fixes
a race where two threads that bind the socket at the same time
with different port IDs may both succeed.

Daniel Borkmann 1853c94964 netlink, mmap: transform mmap skb into full skb on taps
Ken-ichirou reported that running netlink in mmap mode for receive in
combination with nlmon will throw a NULL pointer dereference in
__kfree_skb() on nlmon_xmit(), in my case I can also trigger an "unable
to handle kernel paging request". The problem is the skb_clone() in
__netlink_deliver_tap_skb() for skbs that are mmaped.

I.e. the cloned skb doesn't have a destructor, whereas the mmap netlink
skb has it pointed to netlink_skb_destructor(), set in the handler
netlink_ring_setup_skb(). There, skb->head is being set to NULL, so
that in such cases, __kfree_skb() doesn't perform a skb_release_data()
via skb_release_all(), where skb->head is possibly being freed through
kfree(head) into slab allocator, although netlink mmap skb->head points
to the mmap buffer. Similarly, the same has to be done also for large
netlink skbs where the data area is vmalloced. Therefore, as discussed,
make a copy for these rather rare cases for now. This fixes the issue
on my and Ken-ichirou's test-cases.

Daniel Borkmann 6bb0fef489 netlink, mmap: fix edge-case leakages in nf queue zero-copy
When netlink mmap on receive side is the consumer of nf queue data,
it can happen that in some edge cases, we write skb shared info into
the user space mmap buffer:

Assume a possible rx ring frame size of only 4096, and the network skb,
which is being zero-copied into the netlink skb, contains page frags
with an overall skb->len larger than the linear part of the netlink
skb.

skb_zerocopy(), which is generic and thus not aware of the fact that
shared info cannot be accessed for such skbs then tries to write and
fill frags, thus leaking kernel data/pointers and in some corner cases
possibly writing out of bounds of the mmap area (when filling the
last slot in the ring buffer this way).

I.e. the ring buffer slot is then of status NL_MMAP_STATUS_VALID, has
an advertised length larger than 4096, where the linear part is visible
at the slot beginning, and the leaked sizeof(struct skb_shared_info)
has been written to the beginning of the next slot (also corrupting
the struct nl_mmap_hdr slot header incl. status etc), since skb->end
points to skb->data + ring->frame_size - NL_MMAP_HDRLEN.

The fix adds and lets __netlink_alloc_skb() take the actual needed
linear room for the network skb + meta data into account. It's completely
irrelevant for non-mmaped netlink sockets, but in case mmap sockets
are used, it can be decided whether the available skb_tailroom() is
really large enough for the buffer, or whether it needs to internally
fallback to a normal alloc_skb().

>From nf queue side, the information whether the destination port is
an mmap RX ring is not really available without extra port-to-socket
lookup, thus it can only be determined in lower layers i.e. when
__netlink_alloc_skb() is called that checks internally for this. I
chose to add the extra ldiff parameter as mmap will then still work:
We have data_len and hlen in nfqnl_build_packet_message(), data_len
is the full length (capped at queue->copy_range) for skb_zerocopy()
and hlen some possible part of data_len that needs to be copied; the
rem_len variable indicates the needed remaining linear mmap space.

The only other workaround in nf queue internally would be after
allocation time by f.e. cap'ing the data_len to the skb_tailroom()
iff we deal with an mmap skb, but that would 1) expose the fact that
we use a mmap skb to upper layers, and 2) trim the skb where we
otherwise could just have moved the full skb into the normal receive
queue.

After the patch, in my test case the ring slot doesn't fit and therefore
shows NL_MMAP_STATUS_COPY, where a full skb carries all the data and
thus needs to be picked up via recv().

Daniel Borkmann a66e36568e netlink, mmap: don't walk rx ring on poll if receive queue non-empty
In case of netlink mmap, there can be situations where received frames
have to be placed into the normal receive queue. The ring buffer indicates
this through NL_MMAP_STATUS_COPY, so the user is asked to pick them up
via recvmsg(2) syscall, and to put the slot back to NL_MMAP_STATUS_UNUSED.

Commit 0ef707700f ("netlink: rx mmap: fix POLLIN condition") changed
polling, so that we walk in the worst case the whole ring through the
new netlink_has_valid_frame(), for example, when the ring would have no
NL_MMAP_STATUS_VALID, but at least one NL_MMAP_STATUS_COPY frame.

Since we do a datagram_poll() already earlier to pick up a mask that could
possibly contain POLLIN | POLLRDNORM already (due to NL_MMAP_STATUS_COPY),
we can skip checking the rx ring entirely.

In case the kernel is compiled with !CONFIG_NETLINK_MMAP, then all this is
irrelevant anyway as netlink_poll() is just defined as datagram_poll().

Poll() returns immediately after setting the kernel current frame
(ring->head) to SKIP from user space even though there is no new
frame. And in a case of all frames is VALID, user space program
unintensionally sets (only) kernel current frame to UNUSED, then
calls poll(), it will not return immediately even though there are
VALID frames.

To avoid situations like above, I think we need to scan all frames
to find VALID frames at poll() like netlink_alloc_skb(),
netlink_forward_ring() finding an UNUSED frame at skb allocation.

It seems so far plausible that the recursive call into rtnetlink_rcv()
looks suspicious. One way, where this could trigger is that the senders
NETLINK_CB(skb).portid was wrongly 0 (which is rtnetlink socket), so
the rtnl_getlink() request's answer would be sent to the kernel instead
to the actual user process, thus grabbing rtnl_mutex() twice.

One theory would be that netlink_autobind() triggered via netlink_sendmsg()
internally overwrites the -EBUSY error to 0, but where it is wrongly
originating from __netlink_insert() instead. That would reset the
socket's portid to 0, which is then filled into NETLINK_CB(skb).portid
later on. As commit d470e3b483 ("[NETLINK]: Fix two socket hashing bugs.")
also puts it, -EBUSY should not be propagated from netlink_insert().

It looks like it's very unlikely to reproduce. We need to trigger the
rhashtable_insert_rehash() handler under a situation where rehashing
currently occurs (one /rare/ way would be to hit ht->elasticity limits
while not filled enough to expand the hashtable, but that would rather
require a specifically crafted bind() sequence with knowledge about
destination slots, seems unlikely). It probably makes sense to guard
__netlink_insert() in any case and remap that error. It was suggested
that EOVERFLOW might be better than an already overloaded ENOMEM.

The socket should be dead at this point. It might be simpler to
add a netlink_release_ring() function which doesn't require
locking at all.

Markus Elfring 92b80eb33c netlink: Delete an unnecessary check before the function call "module_put"
The module_put() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then
returns immediately. Thus the test around the call is not needed.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

David Herrmann b42be38b27 netlink: add API to retrieve all group memberships
This patch adds getsockopt(SOL_NETLINK, NETLINK_LIST_MEMBERSHIPS) to
retrieve all groups a socket is a member of. Currently, we have to use
getsockname() and look at the nl.nl_groups bitmask. However, this mask is
limited to 32 groups. Hence, similar to NETLINK_ADD_MEMBERSHIP and
NETLINK_DROP_MEMBERSHIP, this adds a separate sockopt to manager higher
groups IDs than 32.

This new NETLINK_LIST_MEMBERSHIPS option takes a pointer to __u32 and the
size of the array. The array is filled with the full membership-set of the
socket, and the required array size is returned in optlen. Hence,
user-space can retry with a properly sized array in case it was too small.

Switchdev was a case of RTNH_H_{EXTERNAL --> OFFLOAD}
renaming overlapping with net-next changes of various
sorts.

phy.c was a case of two changes, one adding a local
variable to a function whilst the second was removing
one.

tcp.c overlapped a deadlock fix with the addition of new tcp_info
statistic values.

macb.c involved the addition of two zyncq device entries.

skbuff.h involved adding back ipv4_daddr to nf_bridge_info
whilst net-next changes put two other existing members of
that struct into a union.

Herbert Xu b9fbe709de netlink: Use random autobind rover
Currently we use a global rover to select a port ID that is unique.
This used to work consistently when it was protected with a global
lock.  However as we're now lockless, the global rover can exhibit
pathological behaviour should multiple threads all stomp on it at
the same time.

Granted this will eventually resolve itself but the process is
suboptimal.

This patch replaces the global rover with a pseudorandom starting
point to avoid this issue.

Herbert Xu c0bb07df7d netlink: Reset portid after netlink_insert failure
The commit c5adde9468 ("netlink:
eliminate nl_sk_hash_lock") breaks the autobind retry mechanism
because it doesn't reset portid after a failed netlink_insert.

This means that should autobind fail the first time around, then
the socket will be stuck in limbo as it can never be bound again
since it already has a non-zero portid.

Eric Dumazet 91dd93f956 netlink: move nl_table in read_mostly section
netlink sockets creation and deletion heavily modify nl_table_users
and nl_table_lock.

If nl_table is sharing one cache line with one of them, netlink
performance is really bad on SMP.

ffffffff81ff5f00 B nl_table
ffffffff81ff5f0c b nl_table_users

Putting nl_table in read_mostly section increased performance
of my open/delete netlink sockets test by about 80 %

This came up while diagnosing a getaddrinfo() problem.

David S. Miller b04096ff33 Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net
Four minor merge conflicts:

1) qca_spi.c renamed the local variable used for the SPI device
   from spi_device to spi, meanwhile the spi_set_drvdata() call
   got moved further up in the probe function.

2) Two changes were both adding new members to codel params
   structure, and thus we had overlapping changes to the
   initializer function.

3) 'net' was making a fix to sk_release_kernel() which is
   completely removed in 'net-next'.

4) In net_namespace.c, the rtnl_net_fill() call for GET operations
   had the command value fixed, meanwhile 'net-next' adjusted the
   argument signature a bit.

This also matches example merge resolutions posted by Stephen
Rothwell over the past two days.
