      net: convert %p usage to %pK · 71338aa7
      Dan Rosenberg 提交于
      The %pK format specifier is designed to hide exposed kernel pointers,
      specifically via /proc interfaces.  Exposing these pointers provides an
      easy target for kernel write vulnerabilities, since they reveal the
      locations of writable structures containing easily triggerable function
      pointers.  The behavior of %pK depends on the kptr_restrict sysctl.
      
      If kptr_restrict is set to 0, no deviation from the standard %p behavior
      occurs.  If kptr_restrict is set to 1, the default, if the current user
      (intended to be a reader via seq_printf(), etc.) does not have CAP_SYSLOG
      (currently in the LSM tree), kernel pointers using %pK are printed as 0's.
       If kptr_restrict is set to 2, kernel pointers using %pK are printed as
      0's regardless of privileges.  Replacing with 0's was chosen over the
      default "(null)", which cannot be parsed by userland %p, which expects
      "(nil)".
      
      The supporting code for kptr_restrict and %pK are currently in the -mm
      tree.  This patch converts users of %p in net/ to %pK.  Cases of printing
      pointers to the syslog are not covered, since this would eliminate useful
      information for postmortem debugging and the reading of the syslog is
      already optionally protected by the dmesg_restrict sysctl.

      net: sock_def_readable() and friends RCU conversion · 43815482
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      sk_callback_lock rwlock actually protects sk->sk_sleep pointer, so we
      need two atomic operations (and associated dirtying) per incoming
      packet.
      
      RCU conversion is pretty much needed :
      
      1) Add a new structure, called "struct socket_wq" to hold all fields
      that will need rcu_read_lock() protection (currently: a
      wait_queue_head_t and a struct fasync_struct pointer).
      
      [Future patch will add a list anchor for wakeup coalescing]
      
      2) Attach one of such structure to each "struct socket" created in
      sock_alloc_inode().
      
      3) Respect RCU grace period when freeing a "struct socket_wq"
      
      4) Change sk_sleep pointer in "struct sock" by sk_wq, pointer to "struct
      socket_wq"
      
      5) Change sk_sleep() function to use new sk->sk_wq instead of
      sk->sk_sleep
      
      6) Change sk_has_sleeper() to wq_has_sleeper() that must be used inside
      a rcu_read_lock() section.
      
      7) Change all sk_has_sleeper() callers to :
        - Use rcu_read_lock() instead of read_lock(&sk->sk_callback_lock)
        - Use wq_has_sleeper() to eventually wakeup tasks.
        - Use rcu_read_unlock() instead of read_unlock(&sk->sk_callback_lock)
      
      8) sock_wake_async() is modified to use rcu protection as well.
      
      9) Exceptions :
        macvtap, drivers/net/tun.c, af_unix use integrated "struct socket_wq"
      instead of dynamically allocated ones. They dont need rcu freeing.
      
      Some cleanups or followups are probably needed, (possible
      sk_callback_lock conversion to a spinlock for example...).

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.
