mctp: Add SIOCMCTP{ALLOC,DROP}TAG ioctls for tag control

2022-02-09T12:00:11+00:00

This change adds a couple of new ioctls for mctp sockets: SIOCMCTPALLOCTAG and SIOCMCTPDROPTAG. These ioctls provide facilities for explicit allocation / release of tags, overriding the automatic allocate-on-send/release-on-reply and timeout behaviours. This allows userspace more control over messages that may not fit a simple request/response model. In order to indicate a pre-allocated tag to the sendmsg() syscall, we introduce a new flag to the struct sockaddr_mctp.smctp_tag value: MCTP_TAG_PREALLOC. Additional changes from Jeremy Kerr .

mctp: Implement extended addressing

2021-10-26T13:58:45+00:00

This change allows an extended address struct - struct sockaddr_mctp_ext - to be passed to sendmsg/recvmsg. This allows userspace to specify output ifindex and physical address information (for sendmsg) or receive the input ifindex/physaddr for incoming messages (for recvmsg). This is typically used by userspace for MCTP address discovery and assignment operations. The extended addressing facility is conditional on a new sockopt: MCTP_OPT_ADDR_EXT; userspace must explicitly enable addressing before the kernel will consume/populate the extended address data. Includes a fix for an uninitialised var: Reported-by: kernel test robot Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

mctp: Be explicit about struct sockaddr_mctp padding

2021-10-18T12:47:09+00:00

We currently have some implicit padding in struct sockaddr_mctp. This patch makes this padding explicit, and ensures we have consistent layout on platforms with <32bit alignmnent. Fixes: 60fc63981693 ("mctp: Add sockaddr_mctp to uapi") Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

mctp: unify sockaddr_mctp types

2021-10-18T12:47:09+00:00

Use the more precise __kernel_sa_family_t for smctp_family, to match struct sockaddr. Also, use an unsigned int for the network member; negative networks don't make much sense. We're already using unsigned for mctp_dev and mctp_skb_cb, but need to change mctp_sock to suit.

mctp: Allow per-netns default networks

2021-07-29T14:06:50+00:00

Currently we have a compile-time default network (MCTP_INITIAL_DEFAULT_NET). This change introduces a default_net field on the net namespace, allowing future configuration for new interfaces. Signed-off-by: Matt Johnston Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

mctp: Add device handling and netlink interface

2021-07-29T14:06:50+00:00

This change adds the infrastructure for managing MCTP netdevices; we add a pointer to the AF_MCTP-specific data to struct netdevice, and hook up the rtnetlink operations for adding and removing addresses.

mctp: Add sockaddr_mctp to uapi

2021-07-29T14:06:50+00:00

This change introduces the user-visible MCTP header, containing the protocol-specific addressing definitions. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

mctp: Add MCTP base

2021-07-29T14:06:49+00:00

Add basic Kconfig, an initial (empty) af_mctp source object, and {AF,PF}_MCTP definitions, and the required definitions for a new protocol type. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
