rtnetlink: Add bulk registration helpers for rtnetlink message handlers.

2024-10-10T13:39:35+00:00

Before commit addf9b90de22 ("net: rtnetlink: use rcu to free rtnl message handlers"), once rtnl_msg_handlers[protocol] was allocated, the following rtnl_register_module() for the same protocol never failed. However, after the commit, rtnl_msg_handler[protocol][msgtype] needs to be allocated in each rtnl_register_module(), so each call could fail. Many callers of rtnl_register_module() do not handle the returned error, and we need to add many error handlings. To handle that easily, let's add wrapper functions for bulk registration of rtnetlink message handlers. Signed-off-by: Kuniyuki Iwashima Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni

rtnetlink: make the "split" NLM_DONE handling generic

2024-06-05T11:34:54+00:00

Jaroslav reports Dell's OMSA Systems Management Data Engine expects NLM_DONE in a separate recvmsg(), both for rtnl_dump_ifinfo() and inet_dump_ifaddr(). We already added a similar fix previously in commit 460b0d33cf10 ("inet: bring NLM_DONE out to a separate recv() again") Instead of modifying all the dump handlers, and making them look different than modern for_each_netdev_dump()-based dump handlers - put the workaround in rtnetlink code. This will also help us move the custom rtnl-locking from af_netlink in the future (in net-next). Note that this change is not touching rtnl_dump_all(). rtnl_dump_all() is different kettle of fish and a potential problem. We now mix families in a single recvmsg(), but NLM_DONE is not coalesced. Tested: ./cli.py --dbg-small-recv 4096 --spec netlink/specs/rt_addr.yaml \ --dump getaddr --json '{"ifa-family": 2}' ./cli.py --dbg-small-recv 4096 --spec netlink/specs/rt_route.yaml \ --dump getroute --json '{"rtm-family": 2}' ./cli.py --dbg-small-recv 4096 --spec netlink/specs/rt_link.yaml \ --dump getlink Fixes: 3e41af90767d ("rtnetlink: use xarray iterator to implement rtnl_dump_ifinfo()") Fixes: cdb2f80f1c10 ("inet: use xa_array iterator to implement inet_dump_ifaddr()") Reported-by: Jaroslav Pulchart Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAK8fFZ7MKoFSEzMBDAOjoUt+vTZRRQgLDNXEOfdCCXSoXXKE0g@mail.gmail.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski Reviewed-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.

rtnetlink: add RTNL_FLAG_DUMP_UNLOCKED flag

2024-02-26T11:46:12+00:00

Similarly to RTNL_FLAG_DOIT_UNLOCKED, this new flag allows dump operations registered via rtnl_register() or rtnl_register_module() to opt-out from RTNL protection. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Reviewed-by: Donald Hunter Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: validate veth and vxcan peer ifindexes

2023-08-20T10:40:03+00:00

veth and vxcan need to make sure the ifindexes of the peer are not negative, core does not validate this. Using iproute2 with user-space-level checking removed: Before: # ./ip link add index 10 type veth peer index -1 # ip link show 1: lo: mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 2: enp1s0: mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether 52:54:00:74:b2:03 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 10: veth1@veth0: mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether 8a:90:ff:57:6d:5d brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff -1: veth0@veth1: mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether ae:ed:18:e6:fa:7f brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff Now: $ ./ip link add index 10 type veth peer index -1 Error: ifindex can't be negative.

rtnetlink: Honour NLM_F_ECHO flag in rtnl_delete_link

2022-11-01T01:10:21+00:00

This patch use the new helper unregister_netdevice_many_notify() for rtnl_delete_link(), so that the kernel could reply unicast when userspace set NLM_F_ECHO flag to request the new created interface info. At the same time, the parameters of rtnl_delete_link() need to be updated since we need nlmsghdr and portid info.

rtnetlink: pass netlink message header and portid to rtnl_configure_link()

2022-11-01T01:10:21+00:00

This patch pass netlink message header and portid to rtnl_configure_link() All the functions in this call chain need to add the parameters so we can use them in the last call rtnl_notify(), and notify the userspace about the new link info if NLM_F_ECHO flag is set. - rtnl_configure_link() - __dev_notify_flags() - rtmsg_ifinfo() - rtmsg_ifinfo_event() - rtmsg_ifinfo_build_skb() - rtmsg_ifinfo_send() - rtnl_notify() Also move __dev_notify_flags() declaration to net/core/dev.h, as Jakub suggested.
