Jarek Poplawski 8c185ab618 ax25: Fix possible oops in ax25_make_new
In ax25_make_new, if kmemdup of digipeat returns an error, there would
be an oops in sk_free while calling sk_destruct, because sk_protinfo
is NULL at the moment; move sk->sk_destruct initialization after this.

This provides safety against negative optlen at the type

Herbert Xu d55d87fdff net: Move rx skb_orphan call to where needed
In order to get the tun driver to account packets, we need to be
able to receive packets with destructors set.  To be on the safe
side, I added an skb_orphan call for all protocols by default since
some of them (IP in particular) cannot handle receiving packets
destructors properly.

Now it seems that at least one protocol (CAN) expects to be able
to pass skb->sk through the rx path without getting clobbered.

So this patch attempts to fix this properly by moving the skb_orphan
call to where it's actually needed.  In particular, I've added it
to skb_set_owner_[rw] which is what most users of skb->destructor
call.

This is actually an improvement for tun too since it means that
we only give back the amount charged to the socket when the skb
is passed to another socket that will also be charged accordingly.

Eric Dumazet c564039fd8 net: sk_wmem_alloc has initial value of one, not zero
commit 2b85a34e91
(net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx)
changed initial sk_wmem_alloc value.

Some protocols check sk_wmem_alloc value to determine if a timer
must delay socket deallocation. We must take care of the sk_wmem_alloc
value being one instead of zero when no write allocations are pending.

Reported by Ingo Molnar, and full diagnostic from David Miller.

This patch introduces three helpers to get read/write allocations
and a followup patch will use these helpers to report correct
write allocations to user.

David S. Miller 30902dc3cb ax25: Fix std timer socket destroy handling.
Tihomir Heidelberg - 9a4gl, reports:

--------------------
I would like to direct you attention to one problem existing in ax.25
kernel since 2.4. If listening socket is closed and its SKB queue is
released but those sockets get weird. Those "unAccepted()" sockets
should be destroyed in ax25_std_heartbeat_expiry, but it will not
happen. And there is also a note about that in ax25_std_timer.c:
/* Magic here: If we listen() and a new link dies before it
is accepted() it isn't 'dead' so doesn't get removed. */

This issue cause ax25d to stop accepting new connections and I had to
restarted ax25d approximately each day and my services were unavailable.
Also netstat -n -l shows invalid source and device for those listening
sockets. It is strange why ax25d's listening socket get weird because of
this issue, but definitely when I solved this bug I do not have problems
with ax25d anymore and my ax25d can run for months without problems.
--------------------

Actually as far as I can see, this problem is even in releases
as far back as 2.2.x as well.

It seems senseless to special case this test on TCP_LISTEN state.
Anything still stuck in state 0 has no external references and
we can just simply kill it off directly.

David S. Miller 9375cb8a12 ax25: Use sock_graft() and remove bogus sk_socket and sk_sleep init.
The way that listening sockets work in ax25 is that the packet input
code path creates new socks via ax25_make_new() and attaches them
to the incoming SKB.  This SKB gets queued up into the listening
socket's receive queue.

When accept()'d the sock gets hooked up to the real parent socket.
Alternatively, if the listening socket is closed and released, any
unborn socks stuff up in the receive queue get released.

So during this time period these sockets are unreachable in any
other way, so no wakeup events nor references to their ->sk_socket
and ->sk_sleep members can occur.  And even if they do, all such
paths have to make NULL checks.

So do not deceptively initialize them in ax25_make_new() to the
values in the listening socket.  Leave them at NULL.

Finally, use sock_graft() in ax25_accept().

There is only one function in AX25 calling skb_append(), and it really

the current method, but testing hasn't shown any problems.

...

shows that ax25_list_lock and slock-AF_AX25 are taken in different
order: ax25_info_show() takes slock (bh_lock_sock(ax25->sk)) while
ax25_list_lock is held, so reversely to other functions. To fix this
the sock lock should be moved to ax25_info_start(), and there would
be still problem with breaking ax25_list_lock (it seems this "proper"
order isn't optimal yet). But, since it's only for reading proc info
it seems this is not necessary (e.g.  ax25_send_to_raw() does similar
reading without this lock too).

So, this patch removes sock lock to avoid deadlock possibility; there
is also used sock_i_ino() function, which reads sk_socket under proper
read lock. Additionally printf format of this i_ino is changed to %lu.

Pavel Emelyanov c6995bdff0 [AX25]: Switch to using ctl_paths.
This one is almost the same as the hunks in the
first patch, but ax25 tables are created dynamically.

So this patch differs a bit to handle this case.

Many-many code in the kernel initialized the timer->function

is already a helper for this. Use it for networking code.

The patch is HUGE, but makes the code 130 lines shorter

lockdep is worried about the different order here:

#1 (rose_neigh_list_lock){-+..}:
#3 (ax25_list_lock){-+..}:

#0 (linkfail_lock){-+..}:
#1 (rose_neigh_list_lock){-+..}:

#3 (ax25_list_lock){-+..}:
#0 (linkfail_lock){-+..}:

So, ax25_list_lock could be taken before and after linkfail_lock. 
I don't know if this three-thread clutch is very probable (or
possible at all), but it seems another bug reported by Bernard
("[...] system impossible to reboot with linux-2.6.24-rc5")
could have similar source - namely ax25_list_lock held by
ax25_kill_by_device() during ax25_disconnect(). It looks like the
only place which calls ax25_disconnect() this way, so I guess, it
isn't necessary.

This patch is breaking the lock for ax25_disconnect().

move the printk message to the corresponding comment: makes the

David S. Miller c6e6ca712b [NET]: Correct two mistaken skb_reset_mac_header() conversions.
This operation helper abstracts:

	skb->mac_header = skb->data;

but it was done in two more places which were actually:

	skb->mac_header = skb->network_header;

and those are corrected here.

Jarek Poplawski 215f7b08f2 [AX25]: Locking dependencies fix in ax25_disconnect().
Bernard Pidoux reported these lockdep warnings:

[ INFO: possible irq lock inversion dependency detected ]
2.6.23.1 #1
---------------------------------------------------------
fpac/4933 just changed the state of lock:
 (slock-AF_AX25){--..}, at: [<d8be3312>] ax25_disconnect+0x46/0xaf
 [ax25]
 but this lock was taken by another, soft-irq-safe lock in the past:
  (ax25_list_lock){-+..}

  and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them.
  [...]

[ INFO: inconsistent lock state ]
2.6.23.1 #1
---------------------------------
inconsistent {in-softirq-W} -> {softirq-on-W} usage.
ax25_call/4005 [HC0[0]:SC0[0]:HE1:SE1] takes:
 (slock-AF_AX25){-+..}, at: [<d8b79312>] ax25_disconnect+0x46/0xaf [ax25]
 [...]

This means slock-AF_AX25 could be taken both from softirq and process
context with softirqs enabled, so it's endangered itself, but also makes
ax25_list_lock vulnerable. It was not 100% verified if the real lockup
can happen, but this fix isn't very costly and looks safe anyway.
(It was tested by Bernard with 2.6.23.9 and 2.6.24-rc5 kernels.)

Finally, the zero_it argument can be completely removed from
the callers and from the function prototype.

Besides, fix the checkpatch.pl warnings about using the
assignments inside if-s.

This patch is rather big, and it is a part of the previous one.
I splitted it wishing to make the patches more readable. Hope 
this particular split helped.

* Convert files to UTF-8.

  * Also correct some people's names
    (one example is Eißfeldt, which was found in a source file.
    Given that the author used an ß at all in a source file
    indicates that the real name has in fact a 'ß' and not an 'ss',
    which is commonly used as a substitute for 'ß' when limited to
    7bit.)

Eric W. Biederman 881d966b48 [NET]: Make the device list and device lookups per namespace.
This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
namespace safe.  This patch makes dev_base_head a
network namespace variable, and then it picks up
a few associated variables.  The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctl

were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.

vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.

So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces.  The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace.  This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.

For now the ifindex generator is left global.

Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.

At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change.  Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.
