2015-06-21netlink: add API to retrieve all group membershipsDavid Herrmann
This patch adds getsockopt(SOL_NETLINK, NETLINK_LIST_MEMBERSHIPS) to retrieve all groups a socket is a member of. Currently, we have to use getsockname() and look at the nl.nl_groups bitmask. However, this mask is limited to 32 groups. Hence, similar to NETLINK_ADD_MEMBERSHIP and NETLINK_DROP_MEMBERSHIP, this adds a separate sockopt to manager higher groups IDs than 32. This new NETLINK_LIST_MEMBERSHIPS option takes a pointer to __u32 and the size of the array. The array is filled with the full membership-set of the socket, and the required array size is returned in optlen. Hence, user-space can retry with a properly sized array in case it was too small.

2015-05-17netlink: Use random autobind roverHerbert Xu
Currently we use a global rover to select a port ID that is unique. This used to work consistently when it was protected with a global lock. However as we're now lockless, the global rover can exhibit pathological behaviour should multiple threads all stomp on it at the same time. Granted this will eventually resolve itself but the process is suboptimal. This patch replaces the global rover with a pseudorandom starting point to avoid this issue.

2015-05-16netlink: Reset portid after netlink_insert failureHerbert Xu
The commit c5adde9468b0714a051eac7f9666f23eb10b61f7 ("netlink: eliminate nl_sk_hash_lock") breaks the autobind retry mechanism because it doesn't reset portid after a failed netlink_insert. This means that should autobind fail the first time around, then the socket will be stuck in limbo as it can never be bound again since it already has a non-zero portid.

Four minor merge conflicts: 1) qca_spi.c renamed the local variable used for the SPI device from spi_device to spi, meanwhile the spi_set_drvdata() call got moved further up in the probe function. 2) Two changes were both adding new members to codel params structure, and thus we had overlapping changes to the initializer function. 3) 'net' was making a fix to sk_release_kernel() which is completely removed in 'net-next'. 4) In net_namespace.c, the rtnl_net_fill() call for GET operations had the command value fixed, meanwhile 'net-next' adjusted the argument signature a bit.

2015-05-09netlink: allow to listen "all" netnsNicolas Dichtel
More accurately, listen all netns that have a nsid assigned into the netns where the netlink socket is opened. For this purpose, a netlink socket option is added: NETLINK_LISTEN_ALL_NSID. When this option is set on a netlink socket, this socket will receive netlink notifications from all netns that have a nsid assigned into the netns where the socket has been opened. The nsid is sent to userland via an anscillary data. With this patch, a daemon needs only one socket to listen many netns. This is useful when the number of netns is high. Because 0 is a valid value for a nsid, the field nsid_is_set indicates if the field nsid is valid or not. skb->cb is initialized to 0 on skb allocation, thus we are sure that we will never send a nsid 0 by error to the userland.

2015-03-20netlink: Move namespace into hash keyHerbert Xu
Currently the name space is a de facto key because it has to match before we find an object in the hash table. However, it isn't in the hash value so all objects from different name spaces with the same port ID hash to the same bucket. This is bad as the number of name spaces is unbounded. This patch fixes this by using the namespace when doing the hash. Because the namespace field doesn't lie next to the portid field in the netlink socket, this patch switches over to the rhashtable interface without a fixed key.

2015-02-04netlink: make the check for "send from tx_ring" deterministicAl Viro
As it is, zero msg_iovlen means that the first iovec in the kernel array of iovecs is left uninitialized, so checking if its ->iov_base is NULL is random. Since the real users of that thing are doing sendto(fd, NULL, 0, ...), they are getting msg_iovlen = 1 and msg_iov[0] = {NULL, 0}, which is what this test is trying to catch. As suggested by davem, let's just check that msg_iovlen was 1 and msg_iov[0].iov_base was NULL - _that_ is well-defined and it catches what we want to catch.

The subscription bitmask passed via struct sockaddr_nl is converted to the group number when calling the netlink_bind() and netlink_unbind() callbacks. The conversion is however incorrect since bitmask (1 << 0) needs to be mapped to group number 1. Note that you cannot specify the group number 0 (usually known as _NONE) from setsockopt() using NETLINK_ADD_MEMBERSHIP since this is rejected through -EINVAL.

2015-01-18netlink: make nlmsg_end() and genlmsg_end() voidJohannes Berg
Contrary to common expectations for an "int" return, these functions return only a positive value -- if used correctly they cannot even return 0 because the message header will necessarily be in the skb. This makes the very common pattern of if (genlmsg_end(...) < 0) { ... } be a whole bunch of dead code. Many places also simply do return nlmsg_end(...); and the caller is expected to deal with it. This also commonly (at least for me) causes errors, because it is very common to write if (my_function(...)) /* error condition */ and if my_function() does "return nlmsg_end()" this is of course wrong. Additionally, there's not a single place in the kernel that actually needs the message length returned, and if anyone needs it later then it'll be very easy to just use skb->len there. Remove this, and make the functions void. This removes a bunch of dead code as described above. The patch adds lines because I did - return nlmsg_end(...); + nlmsg_end(...); + return 0; I could have preserved all the function's return values by returning skb->len, but instead I've audited all the places calling the affected functions and found that none cared. A few places actually compared the return value with <= 0 in dump functionality, but that could just be changed to < 0 with no change in behaviour, so I opted for the more efficient version. One instance of the error I've made numerous times now is also present in net/phonet/pn_netlink.c in the route_dumpit() function - it didn't check for <0 or <=0 and thus broke out of the loop every single time. I've preserved this since it will (I think) have caused the messages to userspace to be formatted differently with just a single message for every SKB returned to userspace. It's possible that this isn't needed for the tools that actually use this, but I don't even know what they are so couldn't test that changing this behaviour would be acceptable.

2015-01-16genetlink: synchronize socket closing and family removalJohannes Berg
In addition to the problem Jeff Layton reported, I looked at the code and reproduced the same warning by subscribing and removing the genl family with a socket still open. This is a fairly tricky race which originates in the fact that generic netlink allows the family to go away while sockets are still open - unlike regular netlink which has a module refcount for every open socket so in general this cannot be triggered. Trying to resolve this issue by the obvious locking isn't possible as it will result in deadlocks between unregistration and group unbind notification (which incidentally lockdep doesn't find due to the home grown locking in the netlink table.) To really resolve this, introduce a "closing socket" reference counter (for generic netlink only, as it's the only affected family) in the core netlink code and use that in generic netlink to wait for all the sockets that are being closed at the same time as a generic netlink family is removed. This fixes the race that when a socket is closed, it will should call the unbind, but if the family is removed at the same time the unbind will not find it, leading to the warning. The real problem though is that in this case the unbind could actually find a new family that is registered to have a multicast group with the same ID, and call its mcast_unbind() leading to confusing. Also remove the warning since it would still trigger, but is now no longer a problem. This also moves the code in af_netlink.c to before unreferencing the module to avoid having the same problem in the normal non-genl case.

2015-01-16genetlink: disallow subscribing to unknown mcast groupsJohannes Berg
Jeff Layton reported that he could trigger the multicast unbind warning in generic netlink using trinity. I originally thought it was a race condition between unregistering the generic netlink family and closing the socket, but there's a far simpler explanation: genetlink currently allows subscribing to groups that don't (yet) exist, and the warning is triggered when unsubscribing again while the group still doesn't exist. Originally, I had a warning in the subscribe case and accepted it out of userspace API concerns, but the warning was of course wrong and removed later. However, I now think that allowing userspace to subscribe to groups that don't exist is wrong and could possibly become a security problem: Consider a (new) genetlink family implementing a permission check in the mcast_bind() function similar to the like the audit code does today; it would be possible to bypass the permission check by guessing the ID and subscribing to the group it exists. This is only possible in case a family like that would be dynamically loaded, but it doesn't seem like a huge stretch, for example wireless may be loaded when you plug in a USB device. To avoid this reject such subscription attempts. If this ends up causing userspace issues we may need to add a workaround in af_netlink to deny such requests but not return an error.

2015-01-13netlink: eliminate nl_sk_hash_lockYing Xue
As rhashtable_lookup_compare_insert() can guarantee the process of search and insertion is atomic, it's safe to eliminate the nl_sk_hash_lock. After this, object insertion or removal will be protected with per bucket lock on write side while object lookup is guarded with rcu read lock on read side.

2015-01-03rhashtable: Per bucket locks & deferred expansion/shrinkingThomas Graf
Introduces an array of spinlocks to protect bucket mutations. The number of spinlocks per CPU is configurable and selected based on the hash of the bucket. This allows for parallel insertions and removals of entries which do not share a lock. The patch also defers expansion and shrinking to a worker queue which allows insertion and removal from atomic context. Insertions and deletions may occur in parallel to it and are only held up briefly while the particular bucket is linked or unzipped. Mutations of the bucket table pointer is protected by a new mutex, read access is RCU protected. In the event of an expansion or shrinking, the new bucket table allocated is exposed as a so called future table as soon as the resize process starts. Lookups, deletions, and insertions will briefly use both tables. The future table becomes the main table after an RCU grace period and initial linking of the old to the new table was performed. Optimization of the chains to make use of the new number of buckets follows only the new table is in use. The side effect of this is that during that RCU grace period, a bucket traversal using any rht_for_each() variant on the main table will not see any insertions performed during the RCU grace period which would at that point land in the future table. The lookup will see them as it searches both tables if needed. Having multiple insertions and removals occur in parallel requires nelems to become an atomic counter.

This patch is in preparation to introduce per bucket spinlocks. It extends all iterator macros to take the bucket table and bucket index. It also introduces a new rht_dereference_bucket() to handle protected accesses to buckets. It introduces a barrier() to the RCU iterators to the prevent the compiler from caching the first element. The lockdep verifier is introduced as stub which always succeeds and properly implement in the next patch when the locks are introduced.

2014-12-27netlink/genetlink: pass network namespace to bind/unbindJohannes Berg
Netlink families can exist in multiple namespaces, and for the most part multicast subscriptions are per network namespace. Thus it only makes sense to have bind/unbind notifications per network namespace. To achieve this, pass the network namespace of a given client socket to the bind/unbind functions. Also do this in generic netlink, and there also make sure that any bind for multicast groups that only exist in init_net is rejected. This isn't really a problem if it is accepted since a client in a different namespace will never receive any notifications from such a group, but it can confuse the family if not rejected (it's also possible to silently (without telling the family) accept it, but it would also have to be ignored on unbind so families that take any kind of action on bind/unbind won't do unnecessary work for invalid clients like that.

2014-12-27netlink: update listeners directly when removing socketJohannes Berg
The code is now confusing to read - first in one function down (netlink_remove) any group subscriptions are implicitly removed by calling __sk_del_bind_node(), but the subscriber database is only updated far later by calling netlink_update_listeners(). Move the latter call to just after removal from the list so it is easier to follow the code. This also enables moving the locking inside the kernel-socket conditional, which improves the normal socket destruction path.

available Each mmap Netlink frame contains a status field which indicates whether the frame is unused, reserved, contains data or needs to be skipped. Both loads and stores may not be reordeded and must complete before the status field is changed and another CPU might pick up the frame for use.

2014-12-10netlink: use jhash as hashfn for rhashtableDaniel Borkmann
For netlink, we shouldn't be using arch_fast_hash() as a hashing discipline, but rather jhash() instead. Since netlink sockets can be opened by any user, a local attacker would be able to easily create collisions with the DPDK-derived arch_fast_hash(), which trades off performance for security by using crc32 CPU instructions on x86_64. While it might have a legimite use case in other places, it should be avoided in netlink context, though. As rhashtable's API is very flexible, we could later on still decide on other hashing disciplines, if legitimate.
