      net: rework recvmsg handler msg_name and msg_namelen logic · f3d33426
      Hannes Frederic Sowa 提交于
      This patch now always passes msg->msg_namelen as 0. recvmsg handlers must
      set msg_namelen to the proper size <= sizeof(struct sockaddr_storage)
      to return msg_name to the user.
      
      This prevents numerous uninitialized memory leaks we had in the
      recvmsg handlers and makes it harder for new code to accidentally leak
      uninitialized memory.
      
      Optimize for the case recvfrom is called with NULL as address. We don't
      need to copy the address at all, so set it to NULL before invoking the
      recvmsg handler. We can do so, because all the recvmsg handlers must
      cope with the case a plain read() is called on them. read() also sets
      msg_name to NULL.
      
      Also document these changes in include/linux/net.h as suggested by David
      Miller.
      
      Changes since RFC:
      
      Set msg->msg_name = NULL if user specified a NULL in msg_name but had a
      non-null msg_namelen in verify_iovec/verify_compat_iovec. This doesn't
      affect sendto as it would bail out earlier while trying to copy-in the
      address. It also more naturally reflects the logic by the callers of
      verify_iovec.
      
      With this change in place I could remove "
      if (!uaddr || msg_sys->msg_namelen == 0)
      	msg->msg_name = NULL
      ".
      
      This change does not alter the user visible error logic as we ignore
      msg_namelen as long as msg_name is NULL.
      
      Also remove two unnecessary curly brackets in ___sys_recvmsg and change
      comments to netdev style.

      IB/core: extended command: an improved infrastructure for uverbs commands · f21519b2
      Yann Droneaud 提交于
      Commit 400dbc96 ("IB/core: Infrastructure for extensible uverbs
      commands") added an infrastructure for extensible uverbs commands
      while later commit 436f2ad0 ("IB/core: Export ib_create/destroy_flow
      through uverbs") exported ib_create_flow()/ib_destroy_flow() functions
      using this new infrastructure.
      
      According to the commit 400dbc96, the purpose of this
      infrastructure is to support passing around provider (eg. hardware)
      specific buffers when userspace issue commands to the kernel, so that
      it would be possible to extend uverbs (eg. core) buffers independently
      from the provider buffers.
      
      But the new kernel command function prototypes were not modified to
      take advantage of this extension. This issue was exposed by Roland
      Dreier in a previous review[1].
      
      So the following patch is an attempt to a revised extensible command
      infrastructure.
      
      This improved extensible command infrastructure distinguish between
      core (eg. legacy)'s command/response buffers from provider
      (eg. hardware)'s command/response buffers: each extended command
      implementing function is given a struct ib_udata to hold core
      (eg. uverbs) input and output buffers, and another struct ib_udata to
      hold the hw (eg. provider) input and output buffers.
      
      Having those buffers identified separately make it easier to increase
      one buffer to support extension without having to add some code to
      guess the exact size of each command/response parts: This should make
      the extended functions more reliable.
      
      Additionally, instead of relying on command identifier being greater
      than IB_USER_VERBS_CMD_THRESHOLD, the proposed infrastructure rely on
      unused bits in command field: on the 32 bits provided by command
      field, only 6 bits are really needed to encode the identifier of
      commands currently supported by the kernel. (Even using only 6 bits
      leaves room for about 23 new commands).
      
      So this patch makes use of some high order bits in command field to
      store flags, leaving enough room for more command identifiers than one
      will ever need (eg. 256).
      
      The new flags are used to specify if the command should be processed
      as an extended one or a legacy one. While designing the new command
      format, care was taken to make usage of flags itself extensible.
      
      Using high order bits of the commands field ensure that newer
      libibverbs on older kernel will properly fail when trying to call
      extended commands. On the other hand, older libibverbs on newer kernel
      will never be able to issue calls to extended commands.
      
      The extended command header includes the optional response pointer so
      that output buffer length and output buffer pointer are located
      together in the command, allowing proper parameters checking. This
      should make implementing functions easier and safer.
      
      Additionally the extended header ensure 64bits alignment, while making
      all sizes multiple of 8 bytes, extending the maximum buffer size:
      
                                   legacy      extended
      
         Maximum command buffer:  256KBytes   1024KBytes (512KBytes + 512KBytes)
        Maximum response buffer:  256KBytes   1024KBytes (512KBytes + 512KBytes)
      
      For the purpose of doing proper buffer size accounting, the headers
      size are no more taken in account in "in_words".
      
      One of the odds of the current extensible infrastructure, reading
      twice the "legacy" command header, is fixed by removing the "legacy"
      command header from the extended command header: they are processed as
      two different parts of the command: memory is read once and
      information are not duplicated: it's making clear that's an extended
      command scheme and not a different command scheme.
      
      The proposed scheme will format input (command) and output (response)
      buffers this way:
      
      - command:
      
        legacy header +
        extended header +
        command data (core + hw):
      
          +----------------------------------------+

          .          <uverbs output space>         .
          .             (out_words * 8)            .
          |                                        |
          +----------------------------------------+
          |                                        |
          .         <provider output space>        .
          .         (provider_out_words * 8)       .
          |                                        |
          +----------------------------------------+
      
      The overall design is to ensure that the extensible infrastructure is
      itself extensible while begin more reliable with more input and bound
      checking.
      
      Note:
      
      The unused field in the extended header would be perfect candidate to
      hold the command "comp_mask" (eg. bit field used to handle
      compatibility).  This was suggested by Roland Dreier in a previous
      review[2].  But "comp_mask" field is likely to be present in the uverb
      input and/or provider input, likewise for the response, as noted by
      Matan Barak[3], so it doesn't make sense to put "comp_mask" in the
      header.

      IB/core: Remove ib_uverbs_flow_spec structure from userspace · 2490f20b
      Yann Droneaud 提交于
      The structure holding any types of flow_spec is of no use to
      userspace.  It would be wrong for userspace to do:
      
        struct ib_uverbs_flow_spec flow_spec;
      
        flow_spec.type = IB_FLOW_SPEC_TCP;
        flow_spec.size = sizeof(flow_spec);
      
      Instead, userspace should use the dedicated flow_spec structure for
        - Ethernet : struct ib_uverbs_flow_spec_eth,
        - IPv4     : struct ib_uverbs_flow_spec_ipv4,
        - TCP/UDP  : struct ib_uverbs_flow_spec_tcp_udp.
      
      In other words, struct ib_uverbs_flow_spec is a "virtual" data
      structure that can only be use by the kernel as an alias to the other.
