      put iov_iter into msghdr · c0371da6
      Al Viro 提交于
      Note that the code _using_ ->msg_iter at that point will be very
      unhappy with anything other than unshifted iovec-backed iov_iter.
      We still need to convert users to proper primitives.

      net: Add and use skb_copy_datagram_msg() helper. · 51f3d02b
      David S. Miller 提交于
      This encapsulates all of the skb_copy_datagram_iovec() callers
      with call argument signature "skb, offset, msghdr->msg_iov, length".
      
      When we move to iov_iters in the networking, the iov_iter object will
      sit in the msghdr.
      
      Having a helper like this means there will be less places to touch
      during that transformation.

      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.

      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.

      netvm: prevent a stream-specific deadlock · c76562b6
      Mel Gorman 提交于
      This patch series is based on top of "Swap-over-NBD without deadlocking
      v15" as it depends on the same reservation of PF_MEMALLOC reserves logic.
      
      When a user or administrator requires swap for their application, they
      create a swap partition and file, format it with mkswap and activate it
      with swapon.  In diskless systems this is not an option so if swap if
      required then swapping over the network is considered.  The two likely
      scenarios are when blade servers are used as part of a cluster where the
      form factor or maintenance costs do not allow the use of disks and thin
      clients.
      
      The Linux Terminal Server Project recommends the use of the Network Block
      Device (NBD) for swap but this is not always an option.  There is no
      guarantee that the network attached storage (NAS) device is running Linux
      or supports NBD.  However, it is likely that it supports NFS so there are
      users that want support for swapping over NFS despite any performance
      concern.  Some distributions currently carry patches that support swapping
      over NFS but it would be preferable to support it in the mainline kernel.
      
      Patch 1 avoids a stream-specific deadlock that potentially affects TCP.
      
      Patch 2 is a small modification to SELinux to avoid using PFMEMALLOC
      	reserves.
      
      Patch 3 adds three helpers for filesystems to handle swap cache pages.
      	For example, page_file_mapping() returns page->mapping for
      	file-backed pages and the address_space of the underlying
      	swap file for swap cache pages.
      
      Patch 4 adds two address_space_operations to allow a filesystem
      	to pin all metadata relevant to a swapfile in memory. Upon
      	successful activation, the swapfile is marked SWP_FILE and
      	the address space operation ->direct_IO is used for writing
      	and ->readpage for reading in swap pages.
      
      Patch 5 notes that patch 3 is bolting
      	filesystem-specific-swapfile-support onto the side and that
      	the default handlers have different information to what
      	is available to the filesystem. This patch refactors the
      	code so that there are generic handlers for each of the new
      	address_space operations.
      
      Patch 6 adds an API to allow a vector of kernel addresses to be
      	translated to struct pages and pinned for IO.
      
      Patch 7 adds support for using highmem pages for swap by kmapping
      	the pages before calling the direct_IO handler.
      
      Patch 8 updates NFS to use the helpers from patch 3 where necessary.
      
      Patch 9 avoids setting PF_private on PG_swapcache pages within NFS.
      
      Patch 10 implements the new swapfile-related address_space operations
      	for NFS and teaches the direct IO handler how to manage
      	kernel addresses.
      
      Patch 11 prevents page allocator recursions in NFS by using GFP_NOIO
      	where appropriate.
      
      Patch 12 fixes a NULL pointer dereference that occurs when using
      	swap-over-NFS.
      
      With the patches applied, it is possible to mount a swapfile that is on an
      NFS filesystem.  Swap performance is not great with a swap stress test
      taking roughly twice as long to complete than if the swap device was
      backed by NBD.
      
      This patch: netvm: prevent a stream-specific deadlock
      
      It could happen that all !SOCK_MEMALLOC sockets have buffered so much data
      that we're over the global rmem limit.  This will prevent SOCK_MEMALLOC
      buffers from receiving data, which will prevent userspace from running,
      which is needed to reduce the buffered data.
      
      Fix this by exempting the SOCK_MEMALLOC sockets from the rmem limit.  Once
      this change it applied, it is important that sockets that set
      SOCK_MEMALLOC do not clear the flag until the socket is being torn down.
      If this happens, a warning is generated and the tokens reclaimed to avoid
      accounting errors until the bug is fixed.
