2010-12-16SUNRPC: Avoid return code checking in rpcbind XDR encoder functionsChuck Lever
Clean up. The trend in the other XDR encoder functions is to BUG() when encoding problems occur, since a problem here is always due to a local coding error. Then, instead of a status, zero is unconditionally returned. Update the rpcbind XDR encoders to behave this way. To finish the update, use the new-style be32_to_cpup() and cpu_to_be32() macros, and compute the buffer sizes using raw integers instead of sizeof(). This matches the conventions used in other XDR functions. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Tested-by: J.

To avoid copying the skb unnecessarily move the skb_copy call below the checks that don't need write access to the skb. Also, move the assignment of nh_pos and h_pos below the skb_copy to point to the correct skb. It would be possible to avoid another resize of the copied skb by using skb_copy_expand instead of skb_copy but that would make the patch more complex. Also, shared skbs are a corner case right now, so the resize shouldn't matter much.

2010-12-07sunrpc: prevent use-after-free on clearing XPT_BUSYNeilBrown
When an xprt is created, it has a refcount of 1, and XPT_BUSY is set. The refcount is *not* owned by the thread that created the xprt (as is clear from the fact that creators never put the reference). Rather, it is owned by the absence of XPT_DEAD. Once XPT_DEAD is set, (And XPT_BUSY is clear) that initial reference is dropped and the xprt can be freed. So when a creator clears XPT_BUSY it is dropping its only reference and so must not touch the xprt again. However svc_recv, after calling ->xpo_accept (and so getting an XPT_BUSY reference on a new xprt), calls svc_xprt_recieved. This clears XPT_BUSY and then svc_xprt_enqueue - this last without owning a reference. This is dangerous and has been seen to leave svc_xprt_enqueue working with an xprt containing garbage. So we need to hold an extra counted reference over that call to svc_xprt_received. For safety, any time we clear XPT_BUSY and then use the xprt again, we first get a reference, and the put it again afterwards. Note that svc_close_all does not need this extra protection as there are no threads running, and the final free can only be called asynchronously from such a thread.

Pavel Emelyanov tried to fix a race between sk_filter_(de|at)tach and sk_clone() in commit 47e958eac280c263397 Problem is we can have several clones sharing a common sk_filter, and these clones might want to sk_filter_attach() their own filters at the same time, and can overwrite old_filter->rcu, corrupting RCU queues. We can not use filter->rcu without being sure no other thread could do the same thing.

It's not useful to build LED triggers when there's no LEDs that can be triggered by them. Therefore, fix up the dependencies so that this cannot happen, and fix a few users that select triggers to depend on LEDS_CLASS as well (there is also one user that also selects LEDS_CLASS, which is OK).

2010-12-01net/ipv6/sit.c: return unhandled skb to tunnel4_rcvDavid McCullough
I found a problem using an IPv6 over IPv4 tunnel. When CONFIG_IPV6_SIT was enabled, the packets would be rejected as net/ipv6/sit.c was catching all IPPROTO_IPV6 packets and returning an ICMP port unreachable error. I think this patch fixes the problem cleanly. I believe the code in net/ipv4/tunnel4.c:tunnel4_rcv takes care of it properly if none of the handlers claim the skb.

2010-12-01Make the ip6_tunnel reflect the true mtu.Anders Franzen
The ip6_tunnel always assumes it consumes 40 bytes (ip6 hdr) of the mtu of the underlaying device. So for a normal ethernet bearer, the mtu of the ip6_tunnel is 1460. However, when creating a tunnel the encap limit option is enabled by default, and it consumes 8 bytes more, so the true mtu shall be 1452. I dont really know if this breaks some statement in some RFC, so this is a request for comments. Signed-off-by: Anders Franzen <anders.franzen@ericsson.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch fixes an curious issue due to insufficient rx frame filtering. Saqeb Akhter reported frequent disconnects while streaming videos over samba: <http://marc.info/?m=128600031109136> > [ 1166.512087] wlan1: deauthenticated from 30:46:9a:10:49:f7 (Reason: 7) > [ 1526.059997] wlan1: deauthenticated from 30:46:9a:10:49:f7 (Reason: 7) > [ 2125.324356] wlan1: deauthenticated from 30:46:9a:10:49:f7 (Reason: 7) > [...] The reason is that the device generates frames with slightly bogus SA/TA addresses. e.g.: [ 2314.402316] Ignore 9f:1f:31:f8:64:ff [ 2314.402321] Ignore 9f:1f:31:f8:64:ff [ 2352.453804] Ignore 0d:1f:31:f8:64:ff [ 2352.453808] Ignore 0d:1f:31:f8:64:ff ^^ the group-address flag is set! (the correct SA/TA would be: 00:1f:31:f8:64:ff) Since the AP does not know from where the frames come, it generates a DEAUTH response for the (invalid) mcast address. This mcast deauth frame then passes through all filters and tricks the stack into thinking that the AP brutally kicked us! This patch fixes the problem by simply ignoring non-broadcast, group-addressed deauth/disassoc frames.

2010-11-29mac80211: Fix frame injection using non-AP vifJouni Malinen
In order for frame injection to work properly for some use cases (e.g., finding the station entry and keys for encryption), mac80211 needs to find the correct sdata entry. This works when the main vif is in AP mode, but commit a2c1e3dad516618cb0fbfb1a62c36d0b0744573a broke this particular use case for station main vif. While this type of injection is quite unusual operation, it has some uses and we should fix it. Do this by changing the monitor vif sdata selection to allow station vif to be selected instead of limiting it to just AP vifs. We still need to skip some iftypes to avoid selecting unsuitable vif for injection. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-11-29af_unix: limit recursion levelEric Dumazet
Its easy to eat all kernel memory and trigger NMI watchdog, using an exploit program that queues unix sockets on top of others. lkml ref : http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/11/25/8 This mechanism is used in applications, one choice we have is to have a recursion limit. Other limits might be needed as well (if we queue other types of files), since the passfd mechanism is currently limited by socket receive queue sizes only. Add a recursion_level to unix socket, allowing up to 4 levels. Each time we send an unix socket through sendfd mechanism, we copy its recursion level (plus one) to receiver. This recursion level is cleared when socket receive queue is emptied. Reported-by: Марк Коренберг <socketpair@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-11-28inet: Fix __inet_inherit_port() to correctly increment bsockets and num_ownersNagendra Tomar
inet sockets corresponding to passive connections are added to the bind hash using ___inet_inherit_port(). These sockets are later removed from the bind hash using __inet_put_port(). These two functions are not exactly symmetrical. __inet_put_port() decrements hashinfo->bsockets and tb->num_owners, whereas ___inet_inherit_port() does not increment them. This results in both of these going to -ve values. This patch fixes this by calling inet_bind_hash() from ___inet_inherit_port(), which does the right thing. 'bsockets' and 'num_owners' were introduced by commit a9d8f9110d7e953c (inet: Allowing more than 64k connections and heavily optimize bind(0)) Signed-off-by: Nagendra Singh Tomar <tomer_iisc@yahoo.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Acked-by: Evgeniy Polyakov <zbr@ioremap.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-11-28tcp: restrict net.ipv4.tcp_adv_win_scale (#20312)Alexey Dobriyan
tcp_win_from_space() does the following: if (sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale <= 0) return space >> (-sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale); else return space - (space >> sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale); "space" is int. As per C99 6.5.7 (3) shifting int for 32 or more bits is undefined behaviour. Indeed, if sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale is exactly 32, space >> 32 equals space and function returns 0. Which means we busyloop in tcp_fixup_rcvbuf(). Restrict net.ipv4.tcp_adv_win_scale to [-31, 31].

2010-11-24af_unix: limit unix_tot_inflightEric Dumazet
Vegard Nossum found a unix socket OOM was possible, posting an exploit program. My analysis is we can eat all LOWMEM memory before unix_gc() being called from unix_release_sock(). Moreover, the thread blocked in unix_gc() can consume huge amount of time to perform cleanup because of huge working set. One way to handle this is to have a sensible limit on unix_tot_inflight, tested from wait_for_unix_gc() and to force a call to unix_gc() if this limit is hit. This solves the OOM and also reduce overall latencies, and should not slowdown normal workloads.
