Descriptor table is a shared resource; two fget() on the same descriptor
may return different struct file references.  get_tap_ptr_ring() is
called after we'd found (and pinned) the socket we'll be using and it
tries to find the private tun/tap data structures associated with it.
Redoing the lookup by the same file descriptor we'd used to get the
socket is racy - we need to same struct file.

Thanks to Jason for spotting a braino in the original variant of patch -
I'd missed the use of fd == -1 for disabling backend, and in that case
we can end up with sock == NULL and sock != oldsock.

<title>tuntap: add sanity checks about msg_controllen in sendmsg</title>

<content type='text'>
In patch [1], tun_msg_ctl was added to allow pass batched xdp buffers to
tun_sendmsg. Although we donot use msg_controllen in this path, we should
check msg_controllen to make sure the caller pass a valid msg_ctl.

<title>vhost_net: fix OoB on sendmsg() failure.</title>

<content type='text'>
If the sendmsg() call in vhost_tx_batch() fails, both the 'batched_xdp'
and 'done_idx' indexes are left unchanged. If such failure happens
when batched_xdp == VHOST_NET_BATCH, the next call to
vhost_net_build_xdp() will access and write memory outside the xdp
buffers area.

Since sendmsg() can only error with EBADFD, this change addresses the
issue explicitly freeing the XDP buffers batch on error.

Both SKB_FRAG_PAGE_ORDER are defined to the same value in
net/core/sock.c and drivers/vhost/net.c.

Move the SKB_FRAG_PAGE_ORDER definition to net/core/sock.h,
as both net/core/sock.c and drivers/vhost/net.c include it,
and it seems a reasonable file to put the macro.

Also, the field xdp-&gt;rxq was never set, so pass NULL to xdp_init_buff()

Currently the driver doesn't drop a packet which can't be sent by tun
(e.g bad packet). In this case, the driver will always process the
same packet lead to the tx queue stuck.

To fix this issue:
1. in the case of persistent failure (e.g bad packet), the driver
   can skip this descriptor by ignoring the error.
2. in the case of transient failure (e.g -ENOBUFS, -EAGAIN and -ENOMEM),
   the driver schedules the worker to try again.

Currently the vhost_zerocopy_callback() maybe be called to decrease
the refcount when sendmsg fails in tun. The error handling in vhost
handle_tx_zerocopy() will try to decrease the same refcount again.
This is wrong. To fix this issue, we only call vhost_net_ubuf_put()
when vq-&gt;heads[nvq-&gt;desc].len == VHOST_DMA_IN_PROGRESS.
