net: Use umd_cleanup_helper()

2023-05-31T11:06:57+00:00

bpfilter_umh_cleanup() is the same function as umd_cleanup_helper(). Drop the redundant function. Signed-off-by: Jarkko Sakkinen Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20230526112104.1044686-1-jarkko@kernel.org

net: Revert "net: optimize the sockptr_t for unified kernel/user address spaces"

2020-08-10T19:06:44+00:00

This reverts commits 6d04fe15f78acdf8e32329e208552e226f7a8ae6 and a31edb2059ed4e498f9aa8230c734b59d0ad797a. It turns out the idea to share a single pointer for both kernel and user space address causes various kinds of problems. So use the slightly less optimal version that uses an extra bit, but which is guaranteed to be safe everywhere.

net: improve the user pointer check in init_user_sockptr

2020-07-28T20:43:40+00:00

Make sure not just the pointer itself but the whole range lies in the user address space. For that pass the length and then use the access_ok helper to do the check.

net: optimize the sockptr_t for unified kernel/user address spaces

2020-07-24T22:41:54+00:00

For architectures like x86 and arm64 we don't need the separate bit to indicate that a pointer is a kernel pointer as the address spaces are unified. That way the sockptr_t can be reduced to a union of two pointers, which leads to nicer calling conventions. The only caveat is that we need to check that users don't pass in kernel address and thus gain access to kernel memory. Thus the USER_SOCKPTR helper is replaced with a init_user_sockptr function that does this check and returns an error if it fails. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

bpfilter: switch bpfilter_ip_set_sockopt to sockptr_t

2020-07-24T22:41:54+00:00

This is mostly to prepare for cleaning up the callers, as bpfilter by design can't handle kernel pointers. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

bpfilter: Take advantage of the facilities of struct pid

2020-07-07T16:58:57+00:00

Instead of relying on the exit_umh cleanup callback use the fact a struct pid can be tested to see if a process still exists, and that struct pid has a wait queue that notifies when the process dies. v1: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/87h7uydlu9.fsf_-_@x220.int.ebiederm.org v2: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/874kqt4owu.fsf_-_@x220.int.ebiederm.org Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200702164140.4468-14-ebiederm@xmission.com Reviewed-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Acked-by: Alexei Starovoitov Tested-by: Alexei Starovoitov Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

umd: Track user space drivers with struct pid

2020-07-04T14:35:56+00:00

Use struct pid instead of user space pid values that are prone to wrap araound. In addition track the entire thread group instead of just the first thread that is started by exec. There are no multi-threaded user mode drivers today but there is nothing preclucing user drivers from being multi-threaded, so it is just a good idea to track the entire process. Take a reference count on the tgid's in question to make it possible to remove exit_umh in a future change. As a struct pid is available directly use kill_pid_info. The prior process signalling code was iffy in using a userspace pid known to be in the initial pid namespace and then looking up it's task in whatever the current pid namespace is. It worked only because kernel threads always run in the initial pid namespace. As the tgid is now refcounted verify the tgid is NULL at the start of fork_usermode_driver to avoid the possibility of silent pid leaks. v1: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/87mu4qdlv2.fsf_-_@x220.int.ebiederm.org v2: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/a70l4oy8.fsf_-_@x220.int.ebiederm.org Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200702164140.4468-12-ebiederm@xmission.com Reviewed-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Acked-by: Alexei Starovoitov Tested-by: Alexei Starovoitov Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

umd: Rename umd_info.cmdline umd_info.driver_name

2020-07-04T14:35:13+00:00

The only thing supplied in the cmdline today is the driver name so rename the field to clarify the code. As this value is always supplied stop trying to handle the case of a NULL cmdline. Additionally since we now have a name we can count on use the driver_name any place where the code is looking for a name of the binary. v1: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/87imfef0k3.fsf_-_@x220.int.ebiederm.org v2: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/87366d63os.fsf_-_@x220.int.ebiederm.org Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200702164140.4468-7-ebiederm@xmission.com Reviewed-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Acked-by: Alexei Starovoitov Tested-by: Alexei Starovoitov Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

Merge tag 'spdx-5.2-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core

2019-05-21T19:33:38+00:00

Pull SPDX update from Greg KH: "Here is a series of patches that add SPDX tags to different kernel files, based on two different things: - SPDX entries are added to a bunch of files that we missed a year ago that do not have any license information at all. These were either missed because the tool saw the MODULE_LICENSE() tag, or some EXPORT_SYMBOL tags, and got confused and thought the file had a real license, or the files have been added since the last big sweep, or they were Makefile/Kconfig files, which we didn't touch last time. - Add GPL-2.0-only or GPL-2.0-or-later tags to files where our scan tools can determine the license text in the file itself. Where this happens, the license text is removed, in order to cut down on the 700+ different ways we have in the kernel today, in a quest to get rid of all of these. These patches have been out for review on the linux-spdx@vger mailing list, and while they were created by automatic tools, they were hand-verified by a bunch of different people, all whom names are on the patches are reviewers. The reason for these "large" patches is if we were to continue to progress at the current rate of change in the kernel, adding license tags to individual files in different subsystems, we would be finished in about 10 years at the earliest. There will be more series of these types of patches coming over the next few weeks as the tools and reviewers crunch through the more "odd" variants of how to say "GPLv2" that developers have come up with over the years, combined with other fun oddities (GPL + a BSD disclaimer?) that are being unearthed, with the goal for the whole kernel to be cleaned up. These diffstats are not small, 3840 files are touched, over 10k lines removed in just 24 patches" * tag 'spdx-5.2-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core: (24 commits) treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 25 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 24 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 23 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 22 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 21 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 20 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 19 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 18 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 17 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 15 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 14 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 13 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 12 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 11 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 10 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 9 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 7 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 5 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 4 treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 3 ...
