af_unix: Introduce SO_INQ.

2025-07-09T01:05:25+00:00

We have an application that uses almost the same code for TCP and AF_UNIX (SOCK_STREAM). TCP can use TCP_INQ, but AF_UNIX doesn't have it and requires an extra syscall, ioctl(SIOCINQ) or getsockopt(SO_MEMINFO) as an alternative. Let's introduce the generic version of TCP_INQ. If SO_INQ is enabled, recvmsg() will put a cmsg of SCM_INQ that contains the exact value of ioctl(SIOCINQ). The cmsg is also included when msg->msg_get_inq is non-zero to make sockets io_uring-friendly. Note that SOCK_CUSTOM_SOCKOPT is flagged only for SOCK_STREAM to override setsockopt() for SOL_SOCKET. By having the flag in struct unix_sock, instead of struct sock, we can later add SO_INQ support for TCP and reuse tcp_sk(sk)->recvmsg_inq. Note also that supporting custom getsockopt() for SOL_SOCKET will need preparation for other SOCK_CUSTOM_SOCKOPT users (UDP, vsock, MPTCP).

af_unix: Introduce SO_PASSRIGHTS.

2025-05-23T09:24:18+00:00

As long as recvmsg() or recvmmsg() is used with cmsg, it is not possible to avoid receiving file descriptors via SCM_RIGHTS. This behaviour has occasionally been flagged as problematic, as it can be (ab)used to trigger DoS during close(), for example, by passing a FUSE-controlled fd or a hung NFS fd. For instance, as noted on the uAPI Group page [0], an untrusted peer could send a file descriptor pointing to a hung NFS mount and then close it. Once the receiver calls recvmsg() with msg_control, the descriptor is automatically installed, and then the responsibility for the final close() now falls on the receiver, which may result in blocking the process for a long time. Regarding this, systemd calls cmsg_close_all() [1] after each recvmsg() to close() unwanted file descriptors sent via SCM_RIGHTS. However, this cannot work around the issue at all, because the final fput() may still occur on the receiver's side once sendmsg() with SCM_RIGHTS succeeds. Also, even filtering by LSM at recvmsg() does not work for the same reason. Thus, we need a better way to refuse SCM_RIGHTS at sendmsg(). Let's introduce SO_PASSRIGHTS to disable SCM_RIGHTS. Note that this option is enabled by default for backward compatibility.

sock: Introduce SO_RCVPRIORITY socket option

Add new socket option, SO_RCVPRIORITY, to include SO_PRIORITY in the ancillary data returned by recvmsg(). This is analogous to the existing support for SO_RCVMARK, as implemented in commit 6fd1d51cfa253 ("net: SO_RCVMARK socket option for SO_MARK with recvmsg()").

mm: madvise: implement lightweight guard page mechanism

2024-11-11T08:26:45+00:00

Implement a new lightweight guard page feature, that is regions of userland virtual memory that, when accessed, cause a fatal signal to arise. Currently users must establish PROT_NONE ranges to achieve this. However this is very costly memory-wise - we need a VMA for each and every one of these regions AND they become unmergeable with surrounding VMAs. In addition repeated mmap() calls require repeated kernel context switches and contention of the mmap lock to install these ranges, potentially also having to unmap memory if installed over existing ranges. The lightweight guard approach eliminates the VMA cost altogether - rather than establishing a PROT_NONE VMA, it operates at the level of page table entries - establishing PTE markers such that accesses to them cause a fault followed by a SIGSGEV signal being raised. This is achieved through the PTE marker mechanism, which we have already extended to provide PTE_MARKER_GUARD, which we installed via the generic page walking logic which we have extended for this purpose. These guard ranges are established with MADV_GUARD_INSTALL. If the range in which they are installed contain any existing mappings, they will be zapped, i.e. free the range and unmap memory (thus mimicking the behaviour of MADV_DONTNEED in this respect). Any existing guard entries will be left untouched. There is therefore no nesting of guarded pages. Guarded ranges are NOT cleared by MADV_DONTNEED nor MADV_FREE (in both instances the memory range may be reused at which point a user would expect guards to still be in place), but they are cleared via MADV_GUARD_REMOVE, process teardown or unmapping of memory ranges. The guard property can be removed from ranges via MADV_GUARD_REMOVE. The ranges over which this is applied, should they contain non-guard entries, will be untouched, with only guard entries being cleared. We permit this operation on anonymous memory only, and only VMAs which are non-special, non-huge and not mlock()'d (if we permitted this we'd have to drop locked pages which would be rather counterintuitive). Racing page faults can cause repeated attempts to install guard pages that are interrupted, result in a zap, and this process can end up being repeated. If this happens more than would be expected in normal operation, we rescind locks and retry the whole thing, which avoids lock contention in this scenario.

net_tstamp: add SCM_TS_OPT_ID to provide OPT_ID in control message

2024-10-04T18:52:19+00:00

SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID socket option flag gives a way to correlate TX timestamps and packets sent via socket. Unfortunately, there is no way to reliably predict socket timestamp ID value in case of error returned by sendmsg. For UDP sockets it's impossible because of lockless nature of UDP transmit, several threads may send packets in parallel. In case of RAW sockets MSG_MORE option makes things complicated. More details are in the conversation [1]. This patch adds new control message type to give user-space software an opportunity to control the mapping between packets and values by providing ID with each sendmsg for UDP sockets. The documentation is also added in this patch.

tcp: RX path for devmem TCP

2024-09-12T03:44:32+00:00

In tcp_recvmsg_locked(), detect if the skb being received by the user is a devmem skb. In this case - if the user provided the MSG_SOCK_DEVMEM flag - pass it to tcp_recvmsg_devmem() for custom handling. tcp_recvmsg_devmem() copies any data in the skb header to the linear buffer, and returns a cmsg to the user indicating the number of bytes returned in the linear buffer. tcp_recvmsg_devmem() then loops over the unaccessible devmem skb frags, and returns to the user a cmsg_devmem indicating the location of the data in the dmabuf device memory. cmsg_devmem contains this information: 1. the offset into the dmabuf where the payload starts. 'frag_offset'. 2. the size of the frag. 'frag_size'. 3. an opaque token 'frag_token' to return to the kernel when the buffer is to be released. The pages awaiting freeing are stored in the newly added sk->sk_user_frags, and each page passed to userspace is get_page()'d. This reference is dropped once the userspace indicates that it is done reading this page. All pages are released when the socket is destroyed.

mips: Remove posix_types.h include from sigcontext.h

2024-08-29T08:46:00+00:00

Nothing in sigcontext.h seems to require anything from linux/posix_types.h. It seems only a relict: in a Linux 2.6.11-rc2 patch [1] the linux/types.h include was unexplainedly changed to a linux/posix_types.h include. I can only assume it was just an error. Finally headers_check complained "found __[us]{8,16,32,64} type without #include " and commit ae612fb05b0f ("headers_check fix: mips, sigcontext.h") added back the linux/types.h include, but it didn't remove the posix_types.h include. Remove it now.
