bonding: prevent potential infinite loop in bond_header_parse()

2026-03-25T10:08:53+00:00

[ Upstream commit b7405dcf7385445e10821777143f18c3ce20fa04 ] bond_header_parse() can loop if a stack of two bonding devices is setup, because skb->dev always points to the hierarchy top. Add new "const struct net_device *dev" parameter to (struct header_ops)->parse() method to make sure the recursion is bounded, and that the final leaf parse method is called.

phonet/pep: Move call to pn_skb_get_dst_sockaddr() earlier in pep_sock_accept()

commit 17ba793f381eb813596d6de1cc6820bcbda5ed8b upstream. A new warning in clang [1] points out a place in pep_sock_accept() where dst is uninitialized then passed as a const pointer to pep_find_pipe(): net/phonet/pep.c:829:37: error: variable 'dst' is uninitialized when passed as a const pointer argument here [-Werror,-Wuninitialized-const-pointer] 829 | newsk = pep_find_pipe(&pn->hlist, &dst, pipe_handle); | ^~~: Move the call to pn_skb_get_dst_sockaddr(), which initializes dst, to before the call to pep_find_pipe(), so that dst is consistently used initialized throughout the function.

phonet: Handle error of rtnl_register_module().

2024-10-10T13:39:36+00:00

Before commit addf9b90de22 ("net: rtnetlink: use rcu to free rtnl message handlers"), once the first rtnl_register_module() allocated rtnl_msg_handlers[PF_PHONET], the following calls never failed. However, after the commit, rtnl_register_module() could fail silently to allocate rtnl_msg_handlers[PF_PHONET][msgtype] and requires error handling for each call. Handling the error allows users to view a module as an all-or-nothing thing in terms of the rtnetlink functionality. This prevents syzkaller from reporting spurious errors from its tests, where OOM often occurs and module is automatically loaded. Let's use rtnl_register_many() to handle the errors easily.

move asm/unaligned.h to linux/unaligned.h

sysctl: treewide: constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers

2024-07-24T18:59:29+00:00

const qualify the struct ctl_table argument in the proc_handler function signatures. This is a prerequisite to moving the static ctl_table structs into .rodata data which will ensure that proc_handler function pointers cannot be modified. This patch has been generated by the following coccinelle script: ``` virtual patch @r1@ identifier ctl, write, buffer, lenp, ppos; identifier func !~ "appldata_(timer|interval)_handler|sched_(rt|rr)_handler|rds_tcp_skbuf_handler|proc_sctp_do_(hmac_alg|rto_min|rto_max|udp_port|alpha_beta|auth|probe_interval)"; @@ int func( - struct ctl_table *ctl + const struct ctl_table *ctl ,int write, void *buffer, size_t *lenp, loff_t *ppos); @r2@ identifier func, ctl, write, buffer, lenp, ppos; @@ int func( - struct ctl_table *ctl + const struct ctl_table *ctl ,int write, void *buffer, size_t *lenp, loff_t *ppos) { ... } @r3@ identifier func; @@ int func( - struct ctl_table * + const struct ctl_table * ,int , void *, size_t *, loff_t *); @r4@ identifier func, ctl; @@ int func( - struct ctl_table *ctl + const struct ctl_table *ctl ,int , void *, size_t *, loff_t *); @r5@ identifier func, write, buffer, lenp, ppos; @@ int func( - struct ctl_table * + const struct ctl_table * ,int write, void *buffer, size_t *lenp, loff_t *ppos); ``` * Code formatting was adjusted in xfs_sysctl.c to comply with code conventions. The xfs_stats_clear_proc_handler, xfs_panic_mask_proc_handler and xfs_deprecated_dointvec_minmax where adjusted. * The ctl_table argument in proc_watchdog_common was const qualified. This is called from a proc_handler itself and is calling back into another proc_handler, making it necessary to change it as part of the proc_handler migration.

net: change proto and proto_ops accept type

2024-05-14T00:19:09+00:00

Rather than pass in flags, error pointer, and whether this is a kernel invocation or not, add a struct proto_accept_arg struct as the argument. This then holds all of these arguments, and prepares accept for being able to pass back more information. No functional changes in this patch. Acked-by: Jakub Kicinski Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

phonet: no longer hold RTNL in route_dumpit()

2024-05-09T01:54:50+00:00

route_dumpit() already relies on RCU, RTNL is not needed. Also change return value at the end of a dump. This allows NLMSG_DONE to be appended to the current skb at the end of a dump, saving a couple of recvmsg() system calls.

phonet: fix rtm_phonet_notify() skb allocation

fill_route() stores three components in the skb: - struct rtmsg - RTA_DST (u8) - RTA_OIF (u32) Therefore, rtm_phonet_notify() should use NLMSG_ALIGN(sizeof(struct rtmsg)) + nla_total_size(1) + nla_total_size(4) Fixes: f062f41d0657 ("Phonet: routing table Netlink interface") Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Acked-by: Rémi Denis-Courmont Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240502161700.1804476-1-edumazet@google.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

net: Remove ctl_table sentinel elements from several networking subsystems

2024-05-03T12:29:42+00:00

This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link : https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/) To avoid lots of small commits, this commit brings together network changes from (as they appear in MAINTAINERS) LLC, MPTCP, NETROM NETWORK LAYER, PHONET PROTOCOL, ROSE NETWORK LAYER, RXRPC SOCKETS, SCTP PROTOCOL, SHARED MEMORY COMMUNICATIONS (SMC), TIPC NETWORK LAYER and NETWORKING [IPSEC] * Remove sentinel element from ctl_table structs. * Replace empty array registration with the register_net_sysctl_sz call in llc_sysctl_init * Replace the for loop stop condition that tests for procname == NULL with one that depends on array size in sctp_sysctl_net_register * Remove instances where an array element is zeroed out to make it look like a sentinel in xfrm_sysctl_init. This is not longer needed and is safe after commit c899710fe7f9 ("networking: Update to register_net_sysctl_sz") added the array size to the ctl_table registration * Use a table_size variable to keep the value of ARRAY_SIZE Signed-off-by: Joel Granados Signed-off-by: David S.
