From 36fd633ec98acd2028585c22128fcaa3da6d5770 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Al Viro Date: Mon, 26 Jun 2017 13:19:16 -0400 Subject: net: separate SIOCGIFCONF handling from dev_ioctl() Only two of dev_ioctl() callers may pass SIOCGIFCONF to it. Separating that codepath from the rest of dev_ioctl() allows both to simplify dev_ioctl() itself (all other cases work with struct ifreq *) *and* seriously simplify the compat side of that beast: all it takes is passing to inet_gifconf() an extra argument - the size of individual records (sizeof(struct ifreq) or sizeof(struct compat_ifreq)). With dev_ifconf() called directly from sock_do_ioctl()/compat_dev_ifconf() that's easy to arrange. As the result, compat side of SIOCGIFCONF doesn't need any allocations, copy_in_user() back and forth, etc. Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Al Viro --- include/linux/netdevice.h | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'include/linux') diff --git a/include/linux/netdevice.h b/include/linux/netdevice.h index 581495f4e487..df5565d0369c 100644 --- a/include/linux/netdevice.h +++ b/include/linux/netdevice.h @@ -2761,7 +2761,8 @@ static inline bool dev_validate_header(const struct net_device *dev, return false; } -typedef int gifconf_func_t(struct net_device * dev, char __user * bufptr, int len); +typedef int gifconf_func_t(struct net_device * dev, char __user * bufptr, + int len, int size); int register_gifconf(unsigned int family, gifconf_func_t *gifconf); static inline int unregister_gifconf(unsigned int family) { @@ -3315,6 +3316,7 @@ void netdev_rx_handler_unregister(struct net_device *dev); bool dev_valid_name(const char *name); int dev_ioctl(struct net *net, unsigned int cmd, void __user *); +int dev_ifconf(struct net *net, struct ifconf *, int); int dev_ethtool(struct net *net, struct ifreq *); unsigned int dev_get_flags(const struct net_device *); int __dev_change_flags(struct net_device *, unsigned int flags); -- cgit v1.2.3
