net: Pass kern from net_proto_family.create to sk_alloc

2015-05-11T14:50:17+00:00

In preparation for changing how struct net is refcounted on kernel sockets pass the knowledge that we are creating a kernel socket from sock_create_kern through to sk_alloc. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: Remove iocb argument from sendmsg and recvmsg

2015-03-02T18:06:31+00:00

After TIPC doesn't depend on iocb argument in its internal implementations of sendmsg() and recvmsg() hooks defined in proto structure, no any user is using iocb argument in them at all now. Then we can drop the redundant iocb argument completely from kinds of implementations of both sendmsg() and recvmsg() in the entire networking stack.

vsock: Make transport the proto owner

2014-05-05T17:13:50+00:00

Right now the core vsock module is the owner of the proto family. This means there's nothing preventing the transport module from unloading if there are open sockets, which results in a panic. Fix that by allowing the transport to be the owner, which will refcount it properly. Includes version bump to 1.0.1.0-k Passes checkpatch this time, I swear...

net: rework recvmsg handler msg_name and msg_namelen logic

2013-11-21T02:52:30+00:00

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.

VSOCK: Move af_vsock.h and vsock_addr.h to include/net

VSOCK: Fix VSOCK_HASH and VSOCK_CONN_HASH

2013-06-24T06:51:48+00:00

If we mod with VSOCK_HASH_SIZE -1, we get 0, 1, .... 249. Actually, we have vsock_bind_table[0 ... 250] and vsock_connected_table[0 .. 250]. In this case the last entry will never be used. We should mod with VSOCK_HASH_SIZE instead. Signed-off-by: Asias He Acked-by: Andy King Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
