net: fix nla_strcmp to handle more then one trailing null character

2021-05-05T19:48:46+00:00

Android userspace has been using TCA_KIND with a char[IFNAMESIZ] many-null-terminated buffer containing the string 'bpf'. This works on 4.19 and ceases to work on 5.10. I'm not entirely sure what fixes tag to use, but I think the issue was likely introduced in the below mentioned 5.4 commit. Reported-by: Nucca Chen Cc: Cong Wang Cc: David Ahern Cc: David S.

lib: Fix fall-through warnings for Clang

2020-11-19T13:23:47+00:00

In preparation to enable -Wimplicit-fallthrough for Clang, fix multiple warnings by explicitly adding multiple break statements instead of letting the code fall through to the next case, and by replacing a number of /* fall through */ comments with the new pseudo-keyword macro fallthrough. Notice that Clang doesn't recognize /* Fall through */ comments as implicit fall-through markings. Link: https://github.com/KSPP/linux/issues/115 Signed-off-by: Gustavo A. R. Silva

treewide: rename nla_strlcpy to nla_strscpy.

2020-11-16T16:08:54+00:00

Calls to nla_strlcpy are now replaced by calls to nla_strscpy which is the new name of this function. Signed-off-by: Francis Laniel Reviewed-by: Kees Cook Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

Modify return value of nla_strlcpy to match that of strscpy.

2020-11-16T16:08:54+00:00

nla_strlcpy now returns -E2BIG if src was truncated when written to dst. It also returns this error value if dstsize is 0 or higher than INT_MAX. For example, if src is "foo\0" and dst is 3 bytes long, the result will be: 1. "foG" after memcpy (G means garbage). 2. "fo\0" after memset. 3. -E2BIG is returned because src was not completely written into dst. The callers of nla_strlcpy were modified to take into account this modification.

Fix unefficient call to memset before memcpu in nla_strlcpy.

2020-11-16T16:08:54+00:00

Before this commit, nla_strlcpy first memseted dst to 0 then wrote src into it. This is inefficient because bytes whom number is less than src length are written twice. This patch solves this issue by first writing src into dst then fill dst with 0's. Note that, in the case where src length is higher than dst, only 0 is written. Otherwise there are as many 0's written to fill dst. For example, if src is "foo\0" and dst is 5 bytes long, the result will be: 1. "fooGG" after memcpy (G means garbage). 2. "foo\0\0" after memset.

netlink: export policy in extended ACK

2020-10-10T03:22:32+00:00

Add a new attribute NLMSGERR_ATTR_POLICY to the extended ACK to advertise the policy, e.g. if an attribute was out of range, you'll know the range that's permissible. Add new NL_SET_ERR_MSG_ATTR_POL() and NL_SET_ERR_MSG_ATTR_POL() macros to set this, since realistically it's only useful to do this when the bad attribute (offset) is also returned. Use it in lib/nlattr.c which practically does all the policy validation. v2: - add and use netlink_policy_dump_attr_size_estimate() v3: - remove redundant break v4: - really remove redundant break ... sorry Reviewed-by: Jakub Kicinski Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

netlink: add mask validation

2020-10-06T13:25:55+00:00

We don't have good validation policy for existing unsigned int attrs which serve as flags (for new ones we could use NLA_BITFIELD32). With increased use of policy dumping having the validation be expressed as part of the policy is important. Add validation policy in form of a mask of supported/valid bits. Support u64 in the uAPI to be future-proof, but really for now the embedded mask member can only hold 32 bits, so anything with bit 32+ set will always fail validation.
