[ Upstream commit 9cf1cd8ee3ee09ef2859017df2058e2f53c5347f ]

In order to set/get/dump, the tipc uses the generic netlink
infrastructure. So, when tipc module is inserted, init function
calls genl_register_family().
After genl_register_family(), set/get/dump commands are immediately
allowed and these callbacks internally use the net_generic.
net_generic is allocated by register_pernet_device() but this
is called after genl_register_family() in the __init function.
So, these callbacks would use un-initialized net_generic.

Test commands:
    #SHELL1
    while :
    do
        modprobe tipc
        modprobe -rv tipc
    done

    #SHELL2
    while :
    do
        tipc link list
    done

routines: tipc_nl_compat_bearer_disable(),
tipc_nl_compat_link_stat_dump() and tipc_nl_compat_link_reset_stats().
The two link routine occurrences should have been modified to check
the maximum link name length and not bearer name length.

[ Upstream commit 7384b538d3aed2ed49d3575483d17aeee790fb06 ]

When we free skb at tipc_data_input, we return a 'false' boolean.
Then, skb passed to subcalling tipc_link_input in tipc_link_rcv,

&lt;snip&gt;
1303 int tipc_link_rcv:
...
1354    if (!tipc_data_input(l, skb, l-&gt;inputq))
1355        rc |= tipc_link_input(l, skb, l-&gt;inputq);
&lt;/snip&gt;

Fix it by simple changing to a 'true' boolean when skb is being free-ed.
Then, tipc_link_rcv will bypassed to subcalling tipc_link_input as above
condition.

[ Upstream commit f87d8ad9233f115db92c6c087d58403b0009ed36 ]

There is a memory leak in case genlmsg_put fails.

Fix this by freeing *args* before return.

<title>tipc: fix unlimited bundling of small messages</title>

[ Upstream commit e95584a889e1902fdf1ded9712e2c3c3083baf96 ]

We have identified a problem with the "oversubscription" policy in the
link transmission code.

When small messages are transmitted, and the sending link has reached
the transmit window limit, those messages will be bundled and put into
the link backlog queue. However, bundles of data messages are counted
at the 'CRITICAL' level, so that the counter for that level, instead of
the counter for the real, bundled message's level is the one being
increased.
Subsequent, to-be-bundled data messages at non-CRITICAL levels continue
to be tested against the unchanged counter for their own level, while
contributing to an unrestrained increase at the CRITICAL backlog level.

This leaves a gap in congestion control algorithm for small messages
that can result in starvation for other users or a "real" CRITICAL
user. Even that eventually can lead to buffer exhaustion &amp; link reset.

We fix this by keeping a 'target_bskb' buffer pointer at each levels,
then when bundling, we only bundle messages at the same importance
level only. This way, we know exactly how many slots a certain level
have occupied in the queue, so can manage level congestion accurately.

By bundling messages at the same level, we even have more benefits. Let
consider this:
- One socket sends 64-byte messages at the 'CRITICAL' level;
- Another sends 4096-byte messages at the 'LOW' level;

When a 64-byte message comes and is bundled the first time, we put the
overhead of message bundle to it (+ 40-byte header, data copy, etc.)
for later use, but the next message can be a 4096-byte one that cannot
be bundled to the previous one. This means the last bundle carries only
one payload message which is totally inefficient, as for the receiver
also! Later on, another 64-byte message comes, now we make a new bundle
and the same story repeats...

With the new bundling algorithm, this will not happen, the 64-byte
messages will be bundled together even when the 4096-byte message(s)
comes in between. However, if the 4096-byte messages are sent at the
same level i.e. 'CRITICAL', the bundling algorithm will again cause the
same overhead.

Also, the same will happen even with only one socket sending small
messages at a rate close to the link transmit's one, so that, when one
message is bundled, it's transmitted shortly. Then, another message
comes, a new bundle is created and so on...

We will solve this issue radically by another patch.

[ Upstream commit 4da5f0018eef4c0de31675b670c80e82e13e99d1 ]

Commit 2753ca5d9009 ("tipc: fix uninit-value in tipc_nl_compat_doit")
broke older tipc tools that use compat interface (e.g. tipc-config from
tipcutils package):

% tipc-config -p
operation not supported

The commit started to reject TIPC netlink compat messages that do not
have attributes. It is too restrictive because some of such messages are
valid (they don't need any arguments):

% grep 'tx none' include/uapi/linux/tipc_config.h
#define  TIPC_CMD_NOOP              0x0000    /* tx none, rx none */
#define  TIPC_CMD_GET_MEDIA_NAMES   0x0002    /* tx none, rx media_name(s) */
#define  TIPC_CMD_GET_BEARER_NAMES  0x0003    /* tx none, rx bearer_name(s) */
#define  TIPC_CMD_SHOW_PORTS        0x0006    /* tx none, rx ultra_string */
#define  TIPC_CMD_GET_REMOTE_MNG    0x4003    /* tx none, rx unsigned */

#define  TIPC_CMD_NOT_NET_ADMIN     0xC001    /* tx none, rx none */

This patch relaxes the original fix and rejects messages without
arguments only if such arguments are expected by a command (reg_type is
non zero).
