net/rds: reset op_nents when zerocopy page pin fails

2026-05-23T11:09:43+00:00

commit e174929793195e0cd6a4adb0cad731b39f9019b4 upstream. When iov_iter_get_pages2() fails in rds_message_zcopy_from_user(), the pinned pages are released with put_page(), and rm->data.op_mmp_znotifier is cleared. But we fail to properly clear rm->data.op_nents. Later when rds_message_purge() is called from rds_sendmsg() the cleanup loop iterates over the incorrectly non zero number of op_nents and frees them again. Fix this by properly resetting op_nents when it should be in rds_message_zcopy_from_user(). Fixes: 0cebaccef3ac ("rds: zerocopy Tx support.")

net/rds: handle zerocopy send cleanup before the message is queued

2026-05-14T13:31:09+00:00

commit 44b550d88b267320459d518c0743a241ab2108fa upstream. A zerocopy send can fail after user pages have been pinned but before the message is attached to the sending socket. The purge path currently infers zerocopy state from rm->m_rs, so an unqueued message can be cleaned up as if it owned normal payload pages. However, zerocopy ownership is really determined by the presence of op_mmp_znotifier, regardless of whether the message has reached the socket queue. Capture op_mmp_znotifier up front in rds_message_purge() and use it as the cleanup discriminator. If the message is already associated with a socket, keep the existing completion path. Otherwise, drop the pinned page accounting directly and release the notifier before putting the payload pages. This keeps early send failure cleanup consistent with the zerocopy lifetime rules without changing the normal queued completion path. Fixes: 0cebaccef3ac ("rds: zerocopy Tx support.")

treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types

2026-02-21T09:02:28+00:00

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union object instances: Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...) Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...) Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...) (where TYPE may also be *VAR) The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning "TYPE *". Signed-off-by: Kees Cook

net/rds: Encode cp_index in TCP source port

2026-02-05T04:46:38+00:00

Upon "sendmsg", RDS/TCP selects a backend connection based on a hash calculated from the source-port ("RDS_MPATH_HASH"). However, "rds_tcp_accept_one" accepts connections in the order they arrive, which is non-deterministic. Therefore the mapping of the sender's "cp->cp_index" to that of the receiver changes if the backend connections are dropped and reconnected. However, connection state that's preserved across reconnects (e.g. "cp_next_rx_seq") relies on that sender<->receiver mapping to never change. So we make sure that client and server of the TCP connection have the exact same "cp->cp_index" across reconnects by encoding "cp->cp_index" in the lower three bits of the client's TCP source port. A new extension "RDS_EXTHDR_SPORT_IDX" is introduced, that allows the server to tell the difference between clients that do the "cp->cp_index" encoding, and legacy clients that pick source ports randomly.

net/rds: new extension header: rdma bytes

2026-02-05T04:46:38+00:00

Introduce a new extension header type RDSV3_EXTHDR_RDMA_BYTES for an RDMA initiator to exchange rdma byte counts to its target. Currently, RDMA operations cannot precisely account how many bytes a peer just transferred via RDMA, which limits per-connection statistics and future policy (e.g., monitoring or rate/cgroup accounting of RDMA traffic). In this patch we expand rds_message_add_extension to accept multiple extensions, and add new flag to RDS header: RDS_FLAG_EXTHDR_EXTENSION, along with a new extension to RDS header: rds_ext_header_rdma_bytes.

rds: Fix endianness annotations for RDS extension headers

2025-08-22T23:44:39+00:00

Per the RDS 3.1 spec [1], RDS extension headers EXTHDR_NPATHS and EXTHDR_GEN_NUM are be16 and be32 values respectively, exchanged during normal operations over-the-wire (RDS Ping/Pong). This contrasts their declarations as host endian unsigned ints. Fix the annotations across occurrences. Flagged by Sparse.
