unix: avoid use-after-free in ep_remove_wait_queue

2015-12-15T05:40:55+00:00

[ Upstream commit 7d267278a9ece963d77eefec61630223fce08c6c ] Rainer Weikusat writes: An AF_UNIX datagram socket being the client in an n:1 association with some server socket is only allowed to send messages to the server if the receive queue of this socket contains at most sk_max_ack_backlog datagrams. This implies that prospective writers might be forced to go to sleep despite none of the message presently enqueued on the server receive queue were sent by them. In order to ensure that these will be woken up once space becomes again available, the present unix_dgram_poll routine does a second sock_poll_wait call with the peer_wait wait queue of the server socket as queue argument (unix_dgram_recvmsg does a wake up on this queue after a datagram was received). This is inherently problematic because the server socket is only guaranteed to remain alive for as long as the client still holds a reference to it. In case the connection is dissolved via connect or by the dead peer detection logic in unix_dgram_sendmsg, the server socket may be freed despite "the polling mechanism" (in particular, epoll) still has a pointer to the corresponding peer_wait queue. There's no way to forcibly deregister a wait queue with epoll. Based on an idea by Jason Baron, the patch below changes the code such that a wait_queue_t belonging to the client socket is enqueued on the peer_wait queue of the server whenever the peer receive queue full condition is detected by either a sendmsg or a poll. A wake up on the peer queue is then relayed to the ordinary wait queue of the client socket via wake function. The connection to the peer wait queue is again dissolved if either a wake up is about to be relayed or the client socket reconnects or a dead peer is detected or the client socket is itself closed. This enables removing the second sock_poll_wait from unix_dgram_poll, thus avoiding the use-after-free, while still ensuring that no blocked writer sleeps forever.

af_unix: constify the sock parameter in unix_sk()

Make unix_sk() just like inet[6]_sk() by constify'ing the sock parameter. Signed-off-by: Paul Moore Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

af_unix: Convert the unix_sk macro to an inline function for type safety

As suggested by Eric Dumazet this change replaces the #define with a static inline function to enjoy complaints by the compiler when misusing the API. Signed-off-by: Aaron Conole Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net/unix: support SCM_SECURITY for stream sockets

2015-06-11T05:49:20+00:00

SCM_SECURITY was originally only implemented for datagram sockets, not for stream sockets. However, SCM_CREDENTIALS is supported on Unix stream sockets. For consistency, implement Unix stream support for SCM_SECURITY as well. Also clean up the existing code and get rid of the superfluous UNIXSID macro. Motivated by https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1224211, where systemd was using SCM_CREDENTIALS and assumed wrongly that SCM_SECURITY was also supported on Unix stream sockets.

af_unix: improve STREAM behavior with fragmented memory

2013-08-10T08:16:44+00:00

unix_stream_sendmsg() currently uses order-2 allocations, and we had numerous reports this can fail. The __GFP_REPEAT flag present in sock_alloc_send_pskb() is not helping. This patch extends the work done in commit eb6a24816b247c ("af_unix: reduce high order page allocations) for datagram sockets. This opens the possibility of zero copy IO (splice() and friends) The trick is to not use skb_pull() anymore in recvmsg() path, and instead add a @consumed field in UNIXCB() to track amount of already read payload in the skb. There is a performance regression for large sends because of extra page allocations that will be addressed in a follow-up patch, allowing sock_alloc_send_pskb() to attempt high order page allocations.

af_unix.h: Remove extern from function prototypes

2013-08-01T00:50:01+00:00

There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for function prototypes. Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern. extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block. Reflow modified prototypes to 80 columns. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

af_unix: fix a fatal race with bit fields

2013-05-01T19:13:49+00:00

Using bit fields is dangerous on ppc64/sparc64, as the compiler [1] uses 64bit instructions to manipulate them. If the 64bit word includes any atomic_t or spinlock_t, we can lose critical concurrent changes. This is happening in af_unix, where unix_sk(sk)->gc_candidate/ gc_maybe_cycle/lock share the same 64bit word. This leads to fatal deadlock, as one/several cpus spin forever on a spinlock that will never be available again. A safer way would be to use a long to store flags. This way we are sure compiler/arch wont do bad things. As we own unix_gc_lock spinlock when clearing or setting bits, we can use the non atomic __set_bit()/__clear_bit(). recursion_level can share the same 64bit location with the spinlock, as it is set only with this spinlock held.

scm: Stop passing struct cred

2013-04-07T22:58:55+00:00

Now that uids and gids are completely encapsulated in kuid_t and kgid_t we no longer need to pass struct cred which allowed us to test both the uid and the user namespace for equality. Passing struct cred potentially allows us to pass the entire group list as BSD does but I don't believe the cost of cache line misses justifies retaining code for a future potential application.

af_unix: speedup /proc/net/unix

2012-06-08T21:27:23+00:00

/proc/net/unix has quadratic behavior, and can hold unix_table_lock for a while if high number of unix sockets are alive. (90 ms for 200k sockets...) We already have a hash table, so its quite easy to use it. Problem is unbound sockets are still hashed in a single hash slot (unix_socket_table[UNIX_HASH_TABLE]) This patch also spreads unbound sockets to 256 hash slots, to speedup both /proc/net/unix and unix_diag. Time to read /proc/net/unix with 200k unix sockets : (time dd if=/proc/net/unix of=/dev/null bs=4k) before : 520 secs after : 2 secs Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Cc: Steven Whitehouse Cc: Pavel Emelyanov Signed-off-by: David S.
