net: fix infoleak in llc

2016-05-04T20:18:48+00:00

The stack object “info” has a total size of 12 bytes. Its last byte
is padding which is not initialized and leaked via “put_cmsg”.

af_llc: fix types on llc_ui_wait_for_conn

2016-02-17T21:12:13+00:00

The timeout is a long, we return it truncated if it is huge. Basically
harmless as the only caller does a boolean check, but tidy it up anyway.

(64bit build tested this time. Thank you 0day)

tcp: fix recv with flags MSG_WAITALL | MSG_PEEK

2015-07-27T08:06:53+00:00

Currently, tcp_recvmsg enters a busy loop in sk_wait_data if called
with flags = MSG_WAITALL | MSG_PEEK.

sk_wait_data waits for sk_receive_queue not empty, but in this case,
the receive queue is not empty, but does not contain any skb that we
can use.

Add a "last skb seen on receive queue" argument to sk_wait_data, so
that it sleeps until the receive queue has new skbs.

net: Pass kern from net_proto_family.create to sk_alloc

2015-05-11T14:50:17+00:00

In preparation for changing how struct net is refcounted
on kernel sockets pass the knowledge that we are creating
a kernel socket from sock_create_kern through to sk_alloc.

net: Remove iocb argument from sendmsg and recvmsg

2015-03-02T18:06:31+00:00

After TIPC doesn't depend on iocb argument in its internal
implementations of sendmsg() and recvmsg() hooks defined in proto
structure, no any user is using iocb argument in them at all now.
Then we can drop the redundant iocb argument completely from kinds of
implementations of both sendmsg() and recvmsg() in the entire
networking stack.

net: llc: use correct size for sysctl timeout entries

2015-01-25T08:23:21+00:00

The timeout entries are sizeof(int) rather than sizeof(long), which
means that when they were getting read we'd also leak kernel memory
to userspace along with the timeout values.

llc: Make llc_sap_action_t function pointer arrays const

2014-12-10T20:21:24+00:00

It's better when function pointer arrays aren't modifiable.

Net change:

$ size net/llc/built-in.o.*
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
