rtnetlink: add IFLA_GROUP to ifla_policy

2017-07-05T12:40:16+00:00

[ Upstream commit db833d40ad3263b2ee3b59a1ba168bb3cfed8137 ]

Network interface groups support added while ago, however
there is no IFLA_GROUP attribute description in policy
and netlink message size calculations until now.

Add IFLA_GROUP attribute to the policy.

net: Zero ifla_vf_info in rtnl_fill_vfinfo()

2017-07-05T12:40:14+00:00

[ Upstream commit 0eed9cf58446b28b233388b7f224cbca268b6986 ]

Some of the structure's fields are not initialized by the
rtnetlink. If driver doesn't set those in ndo_get_vf_config(),
they'd leak memory to user.

net: Improve handling of failures on link and route dumps

2017-06-07T10:07:44+00:00

[ Upstream commit f6c5775ff0bfa62b072face6bf1d40f659f194b2 ]

In general, rtnetlink dumps do not anticipate failure to dump a single
object (e.g., link or route) on a single pass. As both route and link
objects have grown via more attributes, that is no longer a given.

netlink dumps can handle a failure if the dump function returns an
error; specifically, netlink_dump adds the return code to the response
if it is <= 0 so userspace is notified of the failure. The missing
piece is the rtnetlink dump functions returning the error.

Fix route and link dump functions to return the errors if no object is
added to an skb (detected by skb->len != 0). IPv6 route dumps
(rt6_dump_route) already return the error; this patch updates IPv4 and
link dumps. Other dump functions may need to be ajusted as well.

rtnetlink: NUL-terminate IFLA_PHYS_PORT_NAME string

2017-05-14T12:00:21+00:00

[ Upstream commit 77ef033b687c3e030017c94a29bf6ea3aaaef678 ]

IFLA_PHYS_PORT_NAME is a string attribute, so terminate it with \0.
Otherwise libnl3 fails to validate netlink messages with this attribute.
"ip -detail a" assumes too that the attribute is NUL-terminated when
printing it. It often was, due to padding.

I noticed this as libvirtd failing to start on a system with sfc driver
after upgrading it to Linux 4.11, i.e. when sfc added support for
phys_port_name.

rtnl: stats - add missing netlink message size checks

2017-01-15T12:42:54+00:00

[ Upstream commit 4775cc1f2d5abca894ac32774eefc22c45347d1c ]

We miss to check if the netlink message is actually big enough to contain
a struct if_stats_msg.

Add a check to prevent userland from sending us short messages that would
make us access memory beyond the end of the message.

rtnetlink: fix the wrong minimal dump size getting from rtnl_calcit()

2016-11-24T01:18:36+00:00

For RT netlink, calcit() function should return the minimal size for
netlink dump message. This will make sure that dump message for every
network device can be stored.

Currently, rtnl_calcit() function doesn't account the size of header of
netlink message, this patch will fix it.
