net: fix dev_ifsioc_locked() race condition

2021-02-12T02:14:19+00:00

dev_ifsioc_locked() is called with only RCU read lock, so when there is a parallel writer changing the mac address, it could get a partially updated mac address, as shown below: Thread 1 Thread 2 // eth_commit_mac_addr_change() memcpy(dev->dev_addr, addr->sa_data, ETH_ALEN); // dev_ifsioc_locked() memcpy(ifr->ifr_hwaddr.sa_data, dev->dev_addr,...); Close this race condition by guarding them with a RW semaphore, like netdev_get_name(). We can not use seqlock here as it does not allow blocking. The writers already take RTNL anyway, so this does not affect the slow path. To avoid bothering existing dev_set_mac_address() callers in drivers, introduce a new wrapper just for user-facing callers on ioctl and rtnetlink paths. Note, bonding also changes slave mac addresses but that requires a separate patch due to the complexity of bonding code.

net: tap: check vlan with eth_type_vlan() method

2021-01-16T04:13:49+00:00

Replace some checks for ETH_P_8021Q and ETH_P_8021AD in drivers/net/tap.c with eth_type_vlan. Signed-off-by: Menglong Dong Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210115023238.4681-1-dong.menglong@zte.com.cn Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

tap/tun: add skb_zcopy_init() helper for initialization.

2021-01-08T00:08:37+00:00

Replace direct assignments with skb_zcopy_init() for zerocopy cases where a new skb is initialized, without changing the reference counts. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Lemon Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

net: group skb_shinfo zerocopy related bits together.

2021-01-08T00:08:37+00:00

In preparation for expanded zerocopy (TX and RX), move the zerocopy related bits out of tx_flags into their own flag word. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Lemon Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

skbuff: Add skb parameter to the ubuf zerocopy callback

2021-01-08T00:06:37+00:00

Add an optional skb parameter to the zerocopy callback parameter, which is passed down from skb_zcopy_clear(). This gives access to the original skb, which is needed for upcoming RX zero-copy error handling. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Lemon Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

net: tap: use skb_list_walk_safe helper for gso segments

2020-01-08T23:19:55+00:00

This is a straight-forward conversion case for the new function, and while we're at it, we can remove a null write to skb->next by replacing it with skb_mark_not_on_list. Signed-off-by: Jason A. Donenfeld Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

compat_ioctl: move drivers to compat_ptr_ioctl

2019-10-23T15:23:43+00:00

Each of these drivers has a copy of the same trivial helper function to convert the pointer argument and then call the native ioctl handler. We now have a generic implementation of that, so use it.

coallocate socket_wq with socket itself

2019-07-09T02:25:19+00:00

socket->wq is assign-once, set when we are initializing both struct socket it's in and struct socket_wq it points to. As the matter of fact, the only reason for separate allocation was the ability to RCU-delay freeing of socket_wq. RCU-delaying the freeing of socket itself gets rid of that need, so we can just fold struct socket_wq into the end of struct socket and simplify the life both for sock_alloc_inode() (one allocation instead of two) and for tun/tap oddballs, where we used to embed struct socket and struct socket_wq into the same structure (now - embedding just the struct socket). Note that reference to struct socket_wq in struct sock does remain a reference - that's unchanged. Signed-off-by: Al Viro Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
