[ Upstream commit 661779e1fcafe1b74b3f3fe8e980c1e207fea1fd ]

syzbot reported the following uninit-value access issue [1]:

netlink_to_full_skb() creates a new `skb` and puts the `skb-&gt;data`
passed as a 1st arg of netlink_to_full_skb() onto new `skb`. The data
size is specified as `len` and passed to skb_put_data(). This `len`
is based on `skb-&gt;end` that is not data offset but buffer offset. The
`skb-&gt;end` contains data and tailroom. Since the tailroom is not
initialized when the new `skb` created, KMSAN detects uninitialized
memory area when copying the data.

This patch resolved this issue by correct the len from `skb-&gt;end` to
`skb-&gt;len`, which is the actual data offset.

...                                             skb_queue_tail //put skb to sk_receive_queue

            netlink_sock_destruct
              skb_queue_purge  //get skb from sk_receive_queue
                ...
                __skb_queue_purge_reason
                  kfree_skb_reason

                          vfree(skb-&gt;head)  //sleeping while holding spinlock

In netlink_sendmsg, if the memory pointed to by skb-&gt;head is allocated by
vmalloc, and is put to sk_receive_queue queue, also the skb is not freed.
When the mqueue executes flush, the sleeping bug will occur. Use
vfree_atomic instead of vfree in netlink_skb_destructor to solve the issue.

In netlink_sendmsg, if the memory pointed to by skb-&gt;head is allocated by
vmalloc, and is put to sk_receive_queue queue, also the skb is not freed.
When the mqueue executes flush, the sleeping bug will occur. Use
vfree_atomic instead of vfree in netlink_skb_destructor to solve the issue.

<title>drop_monitor: Require 'CAP_SYS_ADMIN' when joining "events" group</title>

[ Upstream commit e03781879a0d524ce3126678d50a80484a513c4b ]

The "NET_DM" generic netlink family notifies drop locations over the
"events" multicast group. This is problematic since by default generic
netlink allows non-root users to listen to these notifications.

Fix by adding a new field to the generic netlink multicast group
structure that when set prevents non-root users or root without the
'CAP_SYS_ADMIN' capability (in the user namespace owning the network
namespace) from joining the group. Set this field for the "events"
group. Use 'CAP_SYS_ADMIN' rather than 'CAP_NET_ADMIN' because of the
nature of the information that is shared over this group.

Note that the capability check in this case will always be performed
against the initial user namespace since the family is not netns aware
and only operates in the initial network namespace.

A new field is added to the structure rather than using the "flags"
field because the existing field uses uAPI flags and it is inappropriate
to add a new uAPI flag for an internal kernel check. In net-next we can
rework the "flags" field to use internal flags and fold the new field
into it. But for now, in order to reduce the amount of changes, add a
new field.

Since the information can only be consumed by root, mark the control
plane operations that start and stop the tracing as root-only using the
'GENL_ADMIN_PERM' flag.

Tested using [1].

Having family in struct genl_info is quite useful. It cuts

Netlink GET implementations must currently juggle struct genl_info
and struct netlink_callback, depending on whether they were called
from doit or dumpit.

Add genl_info to the dump state and populate the fields.
This way implementations can simply pass struct genl_info around.

Only three families use info-&gt;userhdr today and going forward
we discourage using fixed headers in new families.
So having the pointer to user header in struct genl_info
is an overkill. Compute the header pointer at runtime.

Add helpers which take/release the genl mutex based
on family-&gt;parallel_ops. Remove the separation between
handling of ops in locked and parallel families.

Future patches would make the duplicated code grow even more.

sk_diag_put_flags(), netlink_setsockopt(), netlink_getsockopt()
and others use nlk-&gt;flags without correct locking.

Use set_bit(), clear_bit(), test_bit(), assign_bit() to remove
data-races.
