Jeff Layton 89f842435c sunrpc: replace sunrpc_net->gssd_running flag with a more reliable check
Now that we have a more reliable method to tell if gssd is running, we
can replace the sn->gssd_running flag with a function that will query to
see if it's up and running.

There's also no need to attempt an upcall that we know will fail, so
just return -EACCES if gssd isn't running. Finally, fix the warn_gss()
message not to claim that that the upcall timed out since we don't
necesarily perform one now when gssd isn't running, and remove the
extraneous newline from the message.

Jeff Layton 4b9a445e3e sunrpc: create a new dummy pipe for gssd to hold open
rpc.gssd will naturally hold open any pipe named */clnt*/gssd that shows
up under rpc_pipefs. That behavior gives us a reliable mechanism to tell
whether it's actually running or not.

Create a new toplevel "gssd" directory in rpc_pipefs when it's mounted.
Under that directory create another directory called "clntXX", and then
within that a pipe called "gssd".

We'll never send an upcall along that pipe, and any downcall written to
it will just return -EINVAL.

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
 "Here is a pile of bug fixes that accumulated while I was in Europe"

 1) In fixing kernel leaks to userspace during copying of socket
    addresses, we broke a case that used to work, namely the user
    providing a buffer larger than the in-kernel generic socket address
    structure.  This broke Ruby amongst other things.  Fix from Dan
    Carpenter.

 2) Fix regression added by byte queue limit support in 8139cp driver,
    from Yang Yingliang.

 3) The addition of MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST buggered up a few sendpage
    implementations, they should just treat it the same as MSG_MORE.
    Fix from Richard Weinberger and Shawn Landden.

 4) Handle icmpv4 errors received on ipv6 SIT tunnels correctly, from
    Oussama Ghorbel.  In particular we should send an ICMPv6 unreachable
    in such situations.

 5) Fix some regressions in the recent genetlink fixes, in particular
    get the pmcraid driver to use the new safer interfaces correctly.
    From Johannes Berg.

 6) macvtap was converted to use a per-cpu set of statistics, but some
    code was still bumping tx_dropped elsewhere.  From Jason Wang.

 7) Fix build failure of xen-netback due to missing include on some
    architectures, from Andy Whitecroft.

 8) macvtap double counts received packets in statistics, fix from Vlad
    Yasevich.

 9) Fix various cases of using *_STATS_BH() when *_STATS() is more
    appropriate.  From Eric Dumazet and Hannes Frederic Sowa.

10) Pktgen ipsec mode doesn't update the ipv4 header length and checksum
    properly after encapsulation.  Fix from Fan Du.

fan.du 3868204d6b {pktgen, xfrm} Update IPv4 header total len and checksum after tranformation
commit a553e4a631 ("[PKTGEN]: IPSEC support")
tried to support IPsec ESP transport transformation for pktgen, but acctually
this doesn't work at all for two reasons(The orignal transformed packet has
bad IPv4 checksum value, as well as wrong auth value, reported by wireshark)

- After transpormation, IPv4 header total length needs update,
  because encrypted payload's length is NOT same as that of plain text.

- After transformation, IPv4 checksum needs re-caculate because of payload
  has been changed.

With this patch, armmed pktgen with below cofiguration, Wireshark is able to
decrypted ESP packet generated by pktgen without any IPv4 checksum error or
auth value error.

Shawn Landden d3f7d56a7a net: update consumers of MSG_MORE to recognize MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST
Commit 35f9c09fe (tcp: tcp_sendpages() should call tcp_push() once)
added an internal flag MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST, similar to
MSG_MORE.

algif_hash, algif_skcipher, and udp used MSG_MORE from tcp_sendpages()
and need to see the new flag as identical to MSG_MORE.

This fixes sendfile() on AF_ALG.

If kmsg->msg_namelen > sizeof(struct sockaddr_storage) then in the
original code that would lead to memory corruption in the kernel if you
had audit configured.  If you didn't have audit configured it was
harmless.

There are some programs such as beta versions of Ruby which use too
large of a buffer and returning an error code breaks them.  We should
clamp the ->msg_namelen value instead.

This problem is introduced by commit ae19c5486 ("sctp: remove

Johannes Berg 5e53e689b7 genetlink/pmcraid: use proper genetlink multicast API
The pmcraid driver is abusing the genetlink API and is using its
family ID as the multicast group ID, which is invalid and may
belong to somebody else (and likely will.)

Make it use the correct API, but since this may already be used
as-is by userspace, reserve a family ID for this code and also
reserve that group ID to not break userspace assumptions.

My previous patch broke event delivery in the driver as I missed
that it wasn't using the right API and forgot to update it later
in my series.

While changing this, I noticed that the genetlink code could use
the static group ID instead of a strcmp(), so also do that for
the VFS_DQUOT family.

Fix the bug, and add a warning, as such configuration is not

(For some reason, one has to use a burst >= 1520 to get a working
configuration, even with old kernels. This is a probable iproute2/tc
bug)

addr_len if the msg_name is written to. The recv_error and rxpmtu

As this does not happen any more we have to pass addr_len to those
functions as well and set it to the size of the corresponding sockaddr
length.

This broke traceroute and such.

In some cases we may receive IP packets that are longer than

However, we may end up computing their checksums incorrectly

stack with the checksum status set as verified.

Since such packets are rare and not performance-critical, this
patch simply skips the checksum verification for them.

Herbert Xu 9d8506cc2d gso: handle new frag_list of frags GRO packets
Recently GRO started generating packets with frag_lists of frags.
This was not handled by GSO, thus leading to a crash.

Thankfully these packets are of a regular form and are easy to
handle.  This patch handles them in two ways.  For completely
non-linear frag_list entries, we simply continue to iterate over
the frag_list frags once we exhaust the normal frags.  For frag_list
entries with linear parts, we call pskb_trim on the first part
of the frag_list skb, and then process the rest of the frags in
the usual way.

This patch also kills a chunk of dead frag_list code that has
obviously never ever been run since it ends up generating a bogus
GSO-segmented packet with a frag_list entry.

Future work is planned to split super big packets into TSO
ones.

Unfortunately, I introduced a tremendously stupid bug into
genlmsg_multicast() when doing all those multicast group
changes: it adjusts the group number, but then passes it
to genlmsg_multicast_netns() which does that again.

Somehow, my tests failed to catch this, so add a warning
into genlmsg_multicast_netns() and remove the offending
group ID adjustment.

Also add a warning to the similar code in other functions
so people who misuse them are more loudly warned.

Daniel Borkmann e40526cb20 packet: fix use after free race in send path when dev is released
Salam reported a use after free bug in PF_PACKET that occurs when
we're sending out frames on a socket bound device and suddenly the
net device is being unregistered. It appears that commit 827d9780
introduced a possible race condition between {t,}packet_snd() and
packet_notifier(). In the case of a bound socket, packet_notifier()
can drop the last reference to the net_device and {t,}packet_snd()
might end up suddenly sending a packet over a freed net_device.

To avoid reverting 827d9780 and thus introducing a performance
regression compared to the current state of things, we decided to
hold a cached RCU protected pointer to the net device and maintain
it on write side via bind spin_lock protected register_prot_hook()
and __unregister_prot_hook() calls.

In {t,}packet_snd() path, we access this pointer under rcu_read_lock
through packet_cached_dev_get() that holds reference to the device
to prevent it from being freed through packet_notifier() while
we're in send path. This is okay to do as dev_put()/dev_hold() are
per-cpu counters, so this should not be a performance issue. Also,
the code simplifies a bit as we don't need need_rls_dev anymore.

Hannes Frederic Sowa f3d3342602 net: rework recvmsg handler msg_name and msg_namelen logic
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.

The reason is that when the bridge dev's address is changed, the
br_fdb_change_mac_address() will add new address in fdb, but when
the bridge was removed, the address entry in the fdb did not free,
the bridge_fdb_cache still has objects when destroy the cache, Fix
this by flushing the bridge address entry when removing the bridge.

v2: according to the Toshiaki Makita and Vlad's suggestion, I only
    delete the vlan0 entry, it still have a leak here if the vlan id
    is other number, so I need to call fdb_delete_by_port(br, NULL, 1)
    to flush all entries whose dst is NULL for the bridge.

Vlad Yasevich d2615bf450 net: core: Always propagate flag changes to interfaces
The following commit:
    b6c40d68ff
    net: only invoke dev->change_rx_flags when device is UP

tried to fix a problem with VLAN devices and promiscuouse flag setting.
The issue was that VLAN device was setting a flag on an interface that
was down, thus resulting in bad promiscuity count.
This commit blocked flag propagation to any device that is currently
down.

A later commit:
    deede2fabe
    vlan: Don't propagate flag changes on down interfaces

fixed VLAN code to only propagate flags when the VLAN interface is up,
thus fixing the same issue as above, only localized to VLAN.

The problem we have now is that if we have create a complex stack
involving multiple software devices like bridges, bonds, and vlans,
then it is possible that the flags would not propagate properly to
the physical devices.  A simple examle of the scenario is the
following:

  eth0----> bond0 ----> bridge0 ---> vlan50

If bond0 or eth0 happen to be down at the time bond0 is added to
the bridge, then eth0 will never have promisc mode set which is
currently required for operation as part of the bridge.  As a
result, packets with vlan50 will be dropped by the interface.

The only 2 devices that implement the special flag handling are
VLAN and DSA and they both have required code to prevent incorrect
flag propagation.  As a result we can remove the generic solution
introduced in b6c40d68ff and leave
it to the individual devices to decide whether they will block
flag propagation or not.

Alexei Starovoitov dcdfdf56b4 ipv4: fix race in concurrent ip_route_input_slow()
CPUs can ask for local route via ip_route_input_noref() concurrently.
if nh_rth_input is not cached yet, CPUs will proceed to allocate
equivalent DSTs on 'lo' and then will try to cache them in nh_rth_input
via rt_cache_route()
Most of the time they succeed, but on occasion the following two lines:
	orig = *p;
	prev = cmpxchg(p, orig, rt);
in rt_cache_route() do race and one of the cpus fails to complete cmpxchg.
But ip_route_input_slow() doesn't check the return code of rt_cache_route(),
so dst is leaking. dst_destroy() is never called and 'lo' device
refcnt doesn't go to zero, which can be seen in the logs as:
	unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 1
Adding mdelay() between above two lines makes it easily reproducible.
Fix it similar to nh_pcpu_rth_output case.

 "Mostly these are fixes for fallout due to merge window changes, as
  well as cures for problems that have been with us for a much longer
  period of time"

 1) Johannes Berg noticed two major deficiencies in our genetlink
    registration.  Some genetlink protocols we passing in constant
    counts for their ops array rather than something like
    ARRAY_SIZE(ops) or similar.  Also, some genetlink protocols were
    using fixed IDs for their multicast groups.

    We have to retain these fixed IDs to keep existing userland tools
    working, but reserve them so that other multicast groups used by
    other protocols can not possibly conflict.

    In dealing with these two problems, we actually now use less state
    management for genetlink operations and multicast groups.

 2) When configuring interface hardware timestamping, fix several
    drivers that simply do not validate that the hwtstamp_config value
    is one the driver actually supports.  From Ben Hutchings.

 3) Invalid memory references in mwifiex driver, from Amitkumar Karwar.

 5) Bridge erroneously fails to use the proper wrapper functions to make

    Makita.

 6) When detaching a bridge port, make sure to flush all VLAN IDs to
    prevent them from leaking, also from Toshiaki Makita.

 7) Put in a compromise for TCP Small Queues so that deep queued devices
    that delay TX reclaim non-trivially don't have such a performance
    decrease.  One particularly problematic area is 802.11 AMPDU in
    wireless.  From Eric Dumazet.

11) Fix seqlock deadlock in ip4_datagram_connect() wrt.  statistic
    bumping, this one has been with us for a while.  From Eric Dumazet.

12) Fix NULL deref in the new TIPC fragmentation handling, from Erik
    Hugne.

13) 6lowpan bit used for traffic classification was wrong, from Jukka
    Rissanen.

14) macvlan has the same issue as normal vlans did wrt.  propagating LRO
    disabling down to the real device, fix it the same way.  From Michal

16) Fix small frame pacing in FQ packet scheduler, from Eric Dumazet.

17) The xen-netfront RX buffer refill timer isn't properly scheduled on
    partial RX allocation success, from Ma JieYue.

18) When ipv6 ping protocol support was added, the AF_INET6 protocol
    initialization cleanup path on failure was borked a little.  Fix
    from Vlad Yasevich.

19) If a socket disconnects during a read/recvmsg/recvfrom/etc that

Johannes Berg 2a94fe48f3 genetlink: make multicast groups const, prevent abuse
Register generic netlink multicast groups as an array with
the family and give them contiguous group IDs. Then instead
of passing the global group ID to the various functions that
send messages, pass the ID relative to the family - for most
families that's just 0 because the only have one group.

This avoids the list_head and ID in each group, adding a new
field for the mcast group ID offset to the family.

At the same time, this allows us to prevent abusing groups
again like the quota and dropmon code did, since we can now
check that a family only uses a group it owns.

This doesn't really change anything, but prepares for the
next patch that will change the APIs to pass the group ID
within the family, rather than the global group ID.

Johannes Berg 62b68e99fa genetlink: add and use genl_set_err()
Add a static inline to generic netlink to wrap netlink_set_err()
to make it easier to use here - use it in openvswitch (the only
generic netlink user of netlink_set_err()).

Johannes Berg c2ebb90846 genetlink: remove family pointer from genl_multicast_group
There's no reason to have the family pointer there since it
can just be passed internally where needed, so remove it.
