datagram: When peeking datagrams with offset < 0 don't skip empty skbs

2017-08-18T22:12:54+00:00

Due to commit e6afc8ace6dd5cef5e812f26c72579da8806f5ac ("udp: remove
headers from UDP packets before queueing"), when udp packets are being
peeked the requested extra offset is always 0 as there is no need to skip
the udp header.  However, when the offset is 0 and the next skb is
of length 0, it is only returned once.  The behaviour can be seen with
the following python script:

from socket import *;
f=socket(AF_INET6, SOCK_DGRAM | SOCK_NONBLOCK, 0);
g=socket(AF_INET6, SOCK_DGRAM | SOCK_NONBLOCK, 0);
f.bind(('::', 0));
addr=('::1', f.getsockname()[1]);
g.sendto(b'', addr)
g.sendto(b'b', addr)
print(f.recvfrom(10, MSG_PEEK));
print(f.recvfrom(10, MSG_PEEK));

Where the expected output should be the empty string twice.

Instead, make sk_peek_offset return negative values, and pass those values
to __skb_try_recv_datagram/__skb_try_recv_from_queue.  If the passed offset
to __skb_try_recv_from_queue is negative, the checked skb is never skipped.
__skb_try_recv_from_queue will then ensure the offset is reset back to 0
if a peek is requested without an offset, unless no packets are found.

Also simplify the if condition in __skb_try_recv_from_queue.  If _off is
greater then 0, and off is greater then or equal to skb->len, then
(_off || skb->len) must always be true assuming skb->len >= 0 is always
true.

Also remove a redundant check around a call to sk_peek_offset in af_unix.c,
as it double checked if MSG_PEEK was set in the flags.

V2:
 - Moved the negative fixup into __skb_try_recv_from_queue, and remove now
redundant checks
 - Fix peeking in udp{,v6}_recvmsg to report the right value when the
offset is 0

V3:
 - Marked new branch in __skb_try_recv_from_queue as unlikely.

Pull structure randomization updates from Kees Cook:
 "Now that IPC and other changes have landed, enable manual markings for
  randstruct plugin, including the task_struct.

  This is the rest of what was staged in -next for the gcc-plugins, and
  comes in three patches, largest first:

   - mark "easy" structs with __randomize_layout

   - mark task_struct with an optional anonymous struct to isolate the
     __randomize_layout section

   - mark structs to opt _out_ of automated marking (which will come
     later)

  And, FWIW, this continues to pass allmodconfig (normal and patched to
  enable gcc-plugins) builds of x86_64, i386, arm64, arm, powerpc, and
  s390 for me"

net/sock: add WARN_ON(parent->sk) in sock_graft()

2017-07-08T10:16:16+00:00

sock_graft() unilaterally sets up parent->sk based on the
assumption that the existing parent->sk is null. If this
condition is not true, then the existing parent->sk would
be leaked, so add a WARN_ON() to alert callers who may fall
in this category.

net: convert sock.sk_refcnt from atomic_t to refcount_t

2017-07-01T14:39:08+00:00

refcount_t type and corresponding API should be
used instead of atomic_t when the variable is used as
a reference counter. This allows to avoid accidental
refcounter overflows that might lead to use-after-free
situations.

This patch uses refcount_inc_not_zero() instead of
atomic_inc_not_zero_hint() due to absense of a _hint()
version of refcount API. If the hint() version must
be used, we might need to revisit API.

randstruct: Mark various structs for randomization

2017-06-30T19:00:51+00:00

This marks many critical kernel structures for randomization. These are
structures that have been targeted in the past in security exploits, or
contain functions pointers, pointers to function pointer tables, lists,
workqueues, ref-counters, credentials, permissions, or are otherwise
sensitive. This initial list was extracted from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's
code in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my understanding
of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are mine and
don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code.

Left out of this list is task_struct, which requires special handling
and will be covered in a subsequent patch.

sock: avoid dirtying incoming_cpu if not needed

2017-06-21T15:43:01+00:00

for connected socket, the incoming_cpu field in the sock struct
is not going to change frequently, but we are setting it
unconditionally for each packet.

Since sk_incoming_cpu and sk_flags share the same cacheline,
and the latter is access by udp_recvmsg(), this cause a cache
miss for each packet for UDP connected socket.

With this patch, we set the incoming cpu field only when the
ingress cpu really changes.

This gives a small but measurable performance improvement for
connected UDP socket.

tcp: add TCPMemoryPressuresChrono counter

2017-06-08T15:26:19+00:00

DRAM supply shortage and poor memory pressure tracking in TCP
stack makes any change in SO_SNDBUF/SO_RCVBUF (or equivalent autotuning
limits) and tcp_mem[] quite hazardous.

TCPMemoryPressures SNMP counter is an indication of tcp_mem sysctl
limits being hit, but only tracking number of transitions.

If TCP stack behavior under stress was perfect :
1) It would maintain memory usage close to the limit.
2) Memory pressure state would be entered for short times.

We certainly prefer 100 events lasting 10ms compared to one event
lasting 200 seconds.

This patch adds a new SNMP counter tracking cumulative duration of
memory pressure events, given in ms units.

$ cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_mem
3088    4117    6176
$ grep TCP /proc/net/sockstat
TCP: inuse 180 orphan 0 tw 2 alloc 234 mem 4140
$ nstat -n ; sleep 10 ; nstat |grep Pressure
TcpExtTCPMemoryPressures        1700
