<content type='text'>
Each attribute inside a nested IFLA_VF_VLAN_LIST is assumed to be a
struct ifla_vf_vlan_info so the size of such attribute needs to be at least
of sizeof(struct ifla_vf_vlan_info) which is 14 bytes.
The current size validation in do_setvfinfo is against NLA_HDRLEN (4 bytes)
which is less than sizeof(struct ifla_vf_vlan_info) so this validation
is not enough and a too small attribute might be cast to a
struct ifla_vf_vlan_info, this might result in an out of bands
read access when accessing the saved (casted) entry in ivvl.

Older versions of GCC really want to know the full definition
of the type involved in rcu_assign_pointer().

struct dpll_pin is defined in a local header, net/core can't
reach it. Move all the netdev &lt;&gt; dpll code into dpll, where
the type is known. Otherwise we'd need multiple function calls
to jump between the compilation units.

This is the same problem the commit under fixes was trying to address,
but with rcu_assign_pointer() not rcu_dereference().

Some of the exports are not needed, networking core can't
be a module, we only need exports for the helpers used by
drivers.

<title>rtnetlink: fix error logic of IFLA_BRIDGE_FLAGS writing back</title>

<id>743ad091fb46e622f1b690385bb15e3cd3daf874</id>
<content type='text'>
In the commit d73ef2d69c0d ("rtnetlink: let rtnl_bridge_setlink checks
IFLA_BRIDGE_MODE length"), an adjustment was made to the old loop logic
in the function `rtnl_bridge_setlink` to enable the loop to also check
the length of the IFLA_BRIDGE_MODE attribute. However, this adjustment
removed the `break` statement and led to an error logic of the flags
writing back at the end of this function.

if (have_flags)
    memcpy(nla_data(attr), &amp;flags, sizeof(flags));
    // attr should point to IFLA_BRIDGE_FLAGS NLA !!!

Before the mentioned commit, the `attr` is granted to be IFLA_BRIDGE_FLAGS.
However, this is not necessarily true fow now as the updated loop will let
the attr point to the last NLA, even an invalid NLA which could cause
overflow writes.

This patch introduces a new variable `br_flag` to save the NLA pointer
that points to IFLA_BRIDGE_FLAGS and uses it to resolve the mentioned
error logic.
