netlink: add IGMP/MLD join/leave notifications

2024-12-15T12:31:35+00:00

This change introduces netlink notifications for multicast address changes. The following features are included: * Addition and deletion of multicast addresses are reported using RTM_NEWMULTICAST and RTM_DELMULTICAST messages with AF_INET and AF_INET6. * Two new notification groups: RTNLGRP_IPV4_MCADDR and RTNLGRP_IPV6_MCADDR are introduced for receiving these events. This change allows user space applications (e.g., ip monitor) to efficiently track multicast group memberships by listening for netlink events. Previously, applications relied on inefficient polling of procfs, introducing delays. With netlink notifications, applications receive realtime updates on multicast group membership changes, enabling more precise metrics collection and system monitoring. This change also unlocks the potential for implementing a wide range of sophisticated multicast related features in user space by allowing applications to combine kernel provided multicast address information with user space data and communicate decisions back to the kernel for more fine grained control. This mechanism can be used for various purposes, including multicast filtering, IGMP/MLD offload, and IGMP/MLD snooping.

ipv4/igmp: Annotate struct ip_sf_socklist with __counted_by

2023-10-02T18:24:52+00:00

Prepare for the coming implementation by GCC and Clang of the __counted_by attribute. Flexible array members annotated with __counted_by can have their accesses bounds-checked at run-time checking via CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS (for array indexing) and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE (for strcpy/memcpy-family functions). As found with Coccinelle[1], add __counted_by for struct ip_sf_socklist.

bpf: net: Change do_ip_getsockopt() to take the sockptr_t argument

2022-09-03T03:34:31+00:00

Similar to the earlier patch that changes sk_getsockopt() to take the sockptr_t argument. This patch also changes do_ip_getsockopt() to take the sockptr_t argument such that a latter patch can make bpf_getsockopt(SOL_IP) to reuse do_ip_getsockopt(). Note on the change in ip_mc_gsfget(). This function is to return an array of sockaddr_storage in optval. This function is shared between ip_get_mcast_msfilter() and compat_ip_get_mcast_msfilter(). However, the sockaddr_storage is stored at different offset of the optval because of the difference between group_filter and compat_group_filter. Thus, a new 'ss_offset' argument is added to ip_mc_gsfget(). Signed-off-by: Martin KaFai Lau Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220902002828.2890585-1-kafai@fb.com Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov

ip*_mc_gsfget(): lift copyout of struct group_filter into callers

2020-05-21T00:31:27+00:00

pass the userland pointer to the array in its tail, so that part gets copied out by our functions; copyout of everything else is done in the callers. Rationale: reuse for compat; the array is the same in native and compat, the layout of parts before it is different for compat. Signed-off-by: Al Viro

igmp.h: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array member

2020-04-18T20:44:55+00:00

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2], introduced in C99: struct foo { int stuff; struct boo array[]; }; By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on. Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by this change: "Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1] This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.
