      netlink: make nlmsg_end() and genlmsg_end() void · 053c095a
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      Contrary to common expectations for an "int" return, these functions
      return only a positive value -- if used correctly they cannot even
      return 0 because the message header will necessarily be in the skb.
      
      This makes the very common pattern of
      
        if (genlmsg_end(...) < 0) { ... }
      
      be a whole bunch of dead code. Many places also simply do
      
        return nlmsg_end(...);
      
      and the caller is expected to deal with it.
      
      This also commonly (at least for me) causes errors, because it is very
      common to write
      
        if (my_function(...))
          /* error condition */
      
      and if my_function() does "return nlmsg_end()" this is of course wrong.
      
      Additionally, there's not a single place in the kernel that actually
      needs the message length returned, and if anyone needs it later then
      it'll be very easy to just use skb->len there.
      
      Remove this, and make the functions void. This removes a bunch of dead
      code as described above. The patch adds lines because I did
      
      -	return nlmsg_end(...);
      +	nlmsg_end(...);
      +	return 0;
      
      I could have preserved all the function's return values by returning
      skb->len, but instead I've audited all the places calling the affected
      functions and found that none cared. A few places actually compared
      the return value with <= 0 in dump functionality, but that could just
      be changed to < 0 with no change in behaviour, so I opted for the more
      efficient version.
      
      One instance of the error I've made numerous times now is also present
      in net/phonet/pn_netlink.c in the route_dumpit() function - it didn't
      check for <0 or <=0 and thus broke out of the loop every single time.
      I've preserved this since it will (I think) have caused the messages to
      userspace to be formatted differently with just a single message for
      every SKB returned to userspace. It's possible that this isn't needed
      for the tools that actually use this, but I don't even know what they
      are so couldn't test that changing this behaviour would be acceptable.

      net: tcp: add RTAX_CC_ALGO fib handling · ea697639
      Daniel Borkmann 提交于
      This patch adds the minimum necessary for the RTAX_CC_ALGO congestion
      control metric to be set up and dumped back to user space.
      
      While the internal representation of RTAX_CC_ALGO is handled as a u32
      key, we avoided to expose this implementation detail to user space, thus
      instead, we chose the netlink attribute that is being exchanged between
      user space to be the actual congestion control algorithm name, similarly
      as in the setsockopt(2) API in order to allow for maximum flexibility,
      even for 3rd party modules.
      
      It is a bit unfortunate that RTAX_QUICKACK used up a whole RTAX slot as
      it should have been stored in RTAX_FEATURES instead, we first thought
      about reusing it for the congestion control key, but it brings more
      complications and/or confusion than worth it.
      
      Joint work with Florian Westphal.

      net: Fix use after free by removing length arg from sk_data_ready callbacks. · 676d2369
      David S. Miller 提交于
      Several spots in the kernel perform a sequence like:
      
      	skb_queue_tail(&sk->s_receive_queue, skb);
      	sk->sk_data_ready(sk, skb->len);
      
      But at the moment we place the SKB onto the socket receive queue it
      can be consumed and freed up.  So this skb->len access is potentially
      to freed up memory.
      
      Furthermore, the skb->len can be modified by the consumer so it is
      possible that the value isn't accurate.
      
      And finally, no actual implementation of this callback actually uses
      the length argument.  And since nobody actually cared about it's
      value, lots of call sites pass arbitrary values in such as '0' and
      even '1'.
      
      So just remove the length argument from the callback, that way there
      is no confusion whatsoever and all of these use-after-free cases get
      fixed as a side effect.
      
      Based upon a patch by Eric Dumazet and his suggestion to audit this
      issue tree-wide.

      hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators · b67bfe0d
      Sasha Levin 提交于
      I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived
      
              list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)
      
      The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:
      
              hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)
      
      Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
      they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
      exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.
      
      Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:
      
       - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
       - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
       - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
       was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
       - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
       properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.
      
      The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:
