      dev_open() and dev_close() must be called holding the RTNL, since they
      call device functions and netdevice notifiers that are promised the RTNL.

      netns: Fix arbitrary net_device-s corruptions on net_ns stop. · aca51397
      Pavel Emelyanov 提交于
      When a net namespace is destroyed, some devices (those, not killed
      on ns stop explicitly) are moved back to init_net.
      
      The problem, is that this net_ns change has one point of failure -
      the __dev_alloc_name() may be called if a name collision occurs (and
      this is easy to trigger). This allocator performs a likely-to-fail
      GFP_ATOMIC allocation to find a suitable number. Other possible 
      conditions that may cause error (for device being ns local or not
      registered) are always false in this case.
      
      So, when this call fails, the device is unregistered. But this is
      *not* the right thing to do, since after this the device may be
      released (and kfree-ed) improperly. E. g. bridges require more
      actions (sysfs update, timer disarming, etc.), some other devices 
      want to remove their private areas from lists, etc.
      
      I. e. arbitrary use-after-free cases may occur.
      
      The proposed fix is the following: since the only reason for the
      dev_change_net_namespace to fail is the name generation, we may
      give it a unique fall-back name w/o %d-s in it - the dev<ifindex>
      one, since ifindexes are still unique.
      
      So make this change, raise the failure-case printk loglevel to 
      EMERG and replace the unregister_netdevice call with BUG().

      ethtool: EEPROM dump no longer works for tg3 and natsemi · c5835df9
      Mandeep Singh Baines 提交于
      In the ethtool user-space application, tg3 and natsemi over-ride the
      default implementation of dump_eeprom(). In both tg3_dump_eeprom() and
      natsemi_dump_eeprom(), there is a magic number check which is not
      present in the default implementation.
      
      Commit b131dd5d ("[ETHTOOL]: Add support for large eeproms") snipped
      the code which copied the ethtool_eeprom structure back to
      user-space. tg3 and natsemi are over-writing the magic number field
      and then checking it in user-space. With the ethtool_eeprom copy
      removed, the check is failing.
      
      The fix is simple. Add the ethtool_eeprom copy back.

      [RTNETLINK]: Fix bogus ASSERT_RTNL warning · c9c1014b
      Patrick McHardy 提交于
      ASSERT_RTNL uses mutex_trylock to test whether the rtnl_mutex is
      held. This bogus warnings when running in atomic context, which
      f.e. happens when adding secondary unicast addresses through
      macvlan or vlan or when synchronizing multicast addresses from
      wireless devices.
      
      Mid-term we might want to consider moving all address updates
      to process context since the locking seems overly complicated,
      for now just fix the bogus warning by changing ASSERT_RTNL to
      use mutex_is_locked().

      [NETNS]: The generic per-net pointers. · dec827d1
      Pavel Emelyanov 提交于
      Add the elastic array of void * pointer to the struct net.
      The access rules are simple:
      
       1. register the ops with register_pernet_gen_device to get
          the id of your private pointer
       2. call net_assign_generic() to put the private data on the
          struct net (most preferably this should be done in the
          ->init callback of the ops registered)
       3. do not store any private reference on the net_generic array;
       4. do not change this pointer while the net is alive;
       5. use the net_generic() to get the pointer.
      
      When adding a new pointer, I copy the old array, replace it
      with a new one and schedule the old for kfree after an RCU
      grace period.
      
      Since the net_generic explores the net->gen array inside rcu
      read section and once set the net->gen->ptr[x] pointer never 
      changes, this grants us a safe access to generic pointers.
      
      Quoting Paul: "... RCU is protecting -only- the net_generic 
      structure that net_generic() is traversing, and the [pointer]
      returned by net_generic() is protected by a reference counter 
      in the upper-level struct net."

      [NETNS]: The net-subsys IDs generator. · c93cf61f
      Pavel Emelyanov 提交于
      To make some per-net generic pointers, we need some way to address
      them, i.e. - IDs. This is simple IDA-based IDs generator for pernet
      subsystems.
      
      Addressing questions about potential checkpoint/restart problems: 
      these IDs are "lite-offsets" within the net structure and are by no 
      means supposed to be exported to the userspace.
      
      Since it will be used in the nearest future by devices only (tun,
      vlan, tunnels, bridge, etc), I make it resemble the functionality
      of register_pernet_device().
      
      The new ids is stored in the *id pointer _before_ calling the init
      callback to make this id available in this callback.

      [SKFILTER]: Add SKF_ADF_NLATTR instruction · 4738c1db
      Patrick McHardy 提交于
      SKF_ADF_NLATTR searches for a netlink attribute, which avoids manually
      parsing and walking attributes. It takes the offset at which to start
      searching in the 'A' register and the attribute type in the 'X' register
      and returns the offset in the 'A' register. When the attribute is not
      found it returns zero.
      
      A top-level attribute can be located using a filter like this
      (example for nfnetlink, using struct nfgenmsg):
      
      	...
      	{
      		/* A = offset of first attribute */
      		.code	= BPF_LD | BPF_IMM,
      		.k	= sizeof(struct nlmsghdr) + sizeof(struct nfgenmsg)
      	},
      	{
      		/* X = CTA_PROTOINFO */
      		.code	= BPF_LDX | BPF_IMM,
      		.k	= CTA_PROTOINFO,
      	},
      	{
      		/* A = netlink attribute offset */
      		.code	= BPF_LD | BPF_B | BPF_ABS,
      		.k	= SKF_AD_OFF + SKF_AD_NLATTR
      	},
      	{
      		/* Exit if not found */
      		.code   = BPF_JMP | BPF_JEQ | BPF_K,
      		.k	= 0,
      		.jt	= <error>
      	},
      	...
      
      A nested attribute below the CTA_PROTOINFO attribute would then
      be parsed like this:
      
      	...
      	{
      		/* A += sizeof(struct nlattr) */
      		.code	= BPF_ALU | BPF_ADD | BPF_K,
      		.k	= sizeof(struct nlattr),
      	},
      	{
      		/* X = CTA_PROTOINFO_TCP */
      		.code	= BPF_LDX | BPF_IMM,
      		.k	= CTA_PROTOINFO_TCP,
      	},
      	{
      		/* A = netlink attribute offset */
      		.code	= BPF_LD | BPF_B | BPF_ABS,
      		.k	= SKF_AD_OFF + SKF_AD_NLATTR
      	},
      	...
      
      The data of an attribute can be loaded into 'A' like this:
      
      	...
      	{
      		/* X = A (attribute offset) */
      		.code	= BPF_MISC | BPF_TAX,
      	},
      	{
      		/* A = skb->data[X + k] */
      		.code 	= BPF_LD | BPF_B | BPF_IND,
      		.k	= sizeof(struct nlattr),
      	},
      	...
