[ Upstream commit d3092b2efca1cd1d492d0b08499a2066c5ca8cec ]

The binding table's 'cluster_scope' list is rcu protected to handle
races between threads changing the list and those traversing the list at
the same moment. We have now found that the function named_distribute()
uses the regular list_for_each() macro to traverse the said list.
Likewise, the function tipc_named_withdraw() is removing items from the
same list using the regular list_del() call. When these two functions
execute in parallel we see occasional crashes.

This commit fixes this by adding the missing _rcu() suffixes.

<title>tipc: fix flow control accounting for implicit connect</title>

[ Upstream commit 92ef12b32feab8f277b69e9fb89ede2796777f4d ]

In the case of implicit connect message with data &gt; 1K, the flow
control accounting is incorrect. At this state, the socket does not
know the peer nodes capability and falls back to legacy flow control
by return 1, however the receiver of this message will perform the
new block accounting. This leads to a slack and eventually traffic
disturbance.

In this commit, we perform tipc_node_get_capabilities() at implicit
connect and perform accounting based on the peer's capability.

<title>tipc: call start and done ops directly in __tipc_nl_compat_dumpit()</title>

commit 8f5c5fcf353302374b36232d6885c1a3b579e5ca upstream.

__tipc_nl_compat_dumpit() uses a netlink_callback on stack,
so the only way to align it with other -&gt;dumpit() call path
is calling tipc_dump_start() and tipc_dump_done() directly
inside it. Otherwise -&gt;dumpit() would always get NULL from
cb-&gt;args[].

But tipc_dump_start() uses sock_net(cb-&gt;skb-&gt;sk) to retrieve
net pointer, the cb-&gt;skb here doesn't set skb-&gt;sk, the net pointer
is saved in msg-&gt;net instead, so introduce a helper function
__tipc_dump_start() to pass in msg-&gt;net.

Ying pointed out cb-&gt;args[0...3] are already used by other
callbacks on this call path, so we can't use cb-&gt;args[0] any
more, use cb-&gt;args[4] instead.

[ Upstream commit 9a07efa9aea2f4a59f35da0785a4e6a6b5a96192 ]

syzbot reported a use-after-free in tipc_group_fill_sock_diag(),
where tipc_group_fill_sock_diag() still reads tsk-&gt;group meanwhile
tipc_group_delete() just deletes it in tipc_release().

tipc_nl_sk_walk() aims to lock this sock when walking each sock
in the hash table to close race conditions with sock changes like
this one, by acquiring tsk-&gt;sk.sk_lock.slock spinlock, unfortunately
this doesn't work at all. All non-BH call path should take
lock_sock() instead to make it work.

tipc_nl_sk_walk() brutally iterates with raw rht_for_each_entry_rcu()
where RCU read lock is required, this is the reason why lock_sock()
can't be taken on this path. This could be resolved by switching to
rhashtable iterator API's, where taking a sleepable lock is possible.
Also, the iterator API's are friendly for restartable calls like
diag dump, the last position is remembered behind the scence,
all we need to do here is saving the iterator into cb-&gt;args[].

I tested this with parallel tipc diag dump and thousands of tipc
socket creation and release, no crash or memory leak.

[ Upstream commit 30935198b7d0be12b1c45c328b66a7fdefb16256 ]

In function tipc_dest_push, the 32bit variables 'node' and 'port'
are stored separately in uppper and lower part of 64bit 'value'.
Then this value is assigned to dst-&gt;value which is a union like:
union
{
  struct {
    u32 port;
    u32 node;
  };
  u64 value;
}
This works on little-endian machines like x86 but fails on big-endian
machines.

The fix remove the 'value' stack parameter and even the 'value'
member of the union in tipc_dest, assign the 'node' and 'port' member
directly with the input parameter to avoid the endian issue.

<title>tipc: fix an interrupt unsafe locking scenario</title>

Commit 9faa89d4ed9d ("tipc: make function tipc_net_finalize() thread
safe") tries to make it thread safe to set node address, so it uses
node_list_lock lock to serialize the whole process of setting node
address in tipc_net_finalize(). But it causes the following interrupt
unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  rht_deferred_worker()
  rhashtable_rehash_table()
  lock(&amp;(&amp;ht-&gt;lock)-&gt;rlock)
			       tipc_nl_compat_doit()
                               tipc_net_finalize()
                               local_irq_disable();
                               lock(&amp;(&amp;tn-&gt;node_list_lock)-&gt;rlock);
                               tipc_sk_reinit()
                               rhashtable_walk_enter()
                               lock(&amp;(&amp;ht-&gt;lock)-&gt;rlock);
  &lt;Interrupt&gt;
  tipc_disc_rcv()
  tipc_node_check_dest()
  tipc_node_create()
  lock(&amp;(&amp;tn-&gt;node_list_lock)-&gt;rlock);

 *** DEADLOCK ***

When rhashtable_rehash_table() holds ht-&gt;lock on CPU0, it doesn't
disable BH. So if an interrupt happens after the lock, it can create
an inverse lock ordering between ht-&gt;lock and tn-&gt;node_list_lock. As
a consequence, deadlock might happen.

The reason causing the inverse lock ordering scenario above is because
the initial purpose of node_list_lock is not designed to do the
serialization of node address setting.

As cmpxchg() can guarantee CAS (compare-and-swap) process is atomic,
we use it to replace node_list_lock to ensure setting node address can
be atomically finished. It turns out the potential deadlock can be
avoided as well.

Commit 9faa89d4ed9d ("tipc: make function tipc_net_finalize() thread
safe") tries to make it thread safe to set node address, so it uses
node_list_lock lock to serialize the whole process of setting node
address in tipc_net_finalize(). But it causes the following interrupt
unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  rht_deferred_worker()
  rhashtable_rehash_table()
  lock(&amp;(&amp;ht-&gt;lock)-&gt;rlock)
			       tipc_nl_compat_doit()
                               tipc_net_finalize()
                               local_irq_disable();
                               lock(&amp;(&amp;tn-&gt;node_list_lock)-&gt;rlock);
                               tipc_sk_reinit()
                               rhashtable_walk_enter()
                               lock(&amp;(&amp;ht-&gt;lock)-&gt;rlock);
  &lt;Interrupt&gt;
  tipc_disc_rcv()
  tipc_node_check_dest()
  tipc_node_create()
  lock(&amp;(&amp;tn-&gt;node_list_lock)-&gt;rlock);

 *** DEADLOCK ***

When rhashtable_rehash_table() holds ht-&gt;lock on CPU0, it doesn't
disable BH. So if an interrupt happens after the lock, it can create
an inverse lock ordering between ht-&gt;lock and tn-&gt;node_list_lock. As
a consequence, deadlock might happen.

The reason causing the inverse lock ordering scenario above is because
the initial purpose of node_list_lock is not designed to do the
serialization of node address setting.

As cmpxchg() can guarantee CAS (compare-and-swap) process is atomic,
we use it to replace node_list_lock to ensure setting node address can
be atomically finished. It turns out the potential deadlock can be
avoided as well.

The setting of the node address is not thread safe, meaning that
two discoverers may decide to set it simultanously, with a duplicate
entry in the name table as result. We fix that with this commit.

The duplicate address discovery protocol is not safe against two
discoverers running in parallel. The one executing first after the
trial period is over will set the node address and change its own
message type to DSC_REQ_MSG. The one executing last may find that the
node address is already set, and never change message type, with the
result that its links may never be established.

In this commmit we ensure that the message type always is set correctly
after the trial period is over.
