<title>ip_tunnel: use a separate struct to store tunnel params in the kernel</title>

<id>117aef12a7b1b797bce9f66b156c65eab850b5b5</id>
<content type='text'>
Unlike IPv6 tunnels which use purely-kernel __ip6_tnl_parm structure
to store params inside the kernel, IPv4 tunnel code uses the same
ip_tunnel_parm which is being used to talk with the userspace.
This makes it difficult to alter or add any fields or use a
different format for whatever data.
Define struct ip_tunnel_parm_kern, a 1:1 copy of ip_tunnel_parm for
now, and use it throughout the code. Define the pieces, where the copy
user &lt;-&gt; kernel happens, as standalone functions, and copy the data
there field-by-field, so that the kernel-side structure could be easily
modified later on and the users wouldn't have to care about this.

<title>ipmr: fix incorrect parameter validation in the ip_mroute_getsockopt() function</title>

The 'olr' variable can't be negative when assigned the result of
'min_t' because all 'min_t' parameters are cast to unsigned int,
and then the minimum one is chosen.

To fix the logic, check 'olr' as read from 'optlen',
where the types of relevant variables are (signed) int.

Add a new field into struct fib_dump_filter, to let callers
tell if they use RTNL locking or RCU.

This is used in the following patch, when inet_dump_fib()
no longer holds RTNL.

Use the new KMEM_CACHE() macro instead of direct kmem_cache_create
to simplify the creation of SLAB caches.
And change cache name from 'ip_mrt_cache' to 'mfc_cache'.

The original packet in ipmr_cache_report() may be queued and then forwarded
with ip_mr_forward(). This last function has the assumption that the skb
dst is set.

After the below commit, the skb dst is dropped by ipv4_pktinfo_prepare(),
which causes the oops.

The original packet in ipmr_cache_report() may be queued and then forwarded
with ip_mr_forward(). This last function has the assumption that the skb
dst is set.

After the below commit, the skb dst is dropped by ipv4_pktinfo_prepare(),
which causes the oops.

When fib_default_rule_add is invoked, the value of the input parameter
'flags' is always 0. Rules uses kzalloc to allocate memory, so 'flags' has
been initialized to 0. Therefore, remove the input parameter 'flags' in
fib_default_rule_add.

In order to support IP_PKTINFO on those packets, we need to call
ipv4_pktinfo_prepare.

When sending mrouted/pimd daemons a cache report IGMP msg, it is
unnecessary to set dst on the newly created skb.
It used to be necessary on older versions until
commit d826eb14ecef ("ipv4: PKTINFO doesnt need dst reference") which
changed the way IP_PKTINFO struct is been retrieved.

Changes from v1:
1. Undo changes in ipv4_pktinfo_prepare function. use it directly
   and copy the control block.

<content type='text'>
commit edf391ff1723 ("snmp: add missing counters for RFC 4293") had
already added OutOctets for RFC 4293. In commit 2d8dbb04c63e ("snmp: fix
OutOctets counter to include forwarded datagrams"), OutOctets was
counted again, but not removed from ip_output().

According to RFC 4293 "3.2.3. IP Statistics Tables",
ipipIfStatsOutTransmits is not equal to ipIfStatsOutForwDatagrams. So
"IPSTATS_MIB_OUTOCTETS must be incremented when incrementing" is not
accurate. And IPSTATS_MIB_OUTOCTETS should be counted after fragment.

This patch reverts commit 2d8dbb04c63e ("snmp: fix OutOctets counter to
include forwarded datagrams") and move IPSTATS_MIB_OUTOCTETS to
ip_finish_output2 for ipv4.

<title>net: ioctl: Use kernel memory on protocol ioctl callbacks</title>
<updated>2023-06-16T05:33:26+00:00</updated>
<author>
<name>Breno Leitao</name>
<email>leitao@debian.org</email>
</author>
<published>2023-06-09T15:27:42+00:00</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux.git/commit/?id=e1d001fa5b477c4da46a29be1fcece91db7c7c6f'/>
<id>e1d001fa5b477c4da46a29be1fcece91db7c7c6f</id>
<content type='text'>
Most of the ioctls to net protocols operates directly on userspace
argument (arg). Usually doing get_user()/put_user() directly in the
ioctl callback.  This is not flexible, because it is hard to reuse these
functions without passing userspace buffers.

Change the "struct proto" ioctls to avoid touching userspace memory and
operate on kernel buffers, i.e., all protocol's ioctl callbacks is
adapted to operate on a kernel memory other than on userspace (so, no
more {put,get}_user() and friends being called in the ioctl callback).

This changes the "struct proto" ioctl format in the following way:

    int                     (*ioctl)(struct sock *sk, int cmd,
-                                        unsigned long arg);
+                                        int *karg);

(Important to say that this patch does not touch the "struct proto_ops"
protocols)

So, the "karg" argument, which is passed to the ioctl callback, is a
pointer allocated to kernel space memory (inside a function wrapper).
This buffer (karg) may contain input argument (copied from userspace in
a prep function) and it might return a value/buffer, which is copied
back to userspace if necessary. There is not one-size-fits-all format
(that is I am using 'may' above), but basically, there are three type of
ioctls:

1) Do not read from userspace, returns a result to userspace
2) Read an input parameter from userspace, and does not return anything
  to userspace
3) Read an input from userspace, and return a buffer to userspace.

The default case (1) (where no input parameter is given, and an "int" is
returned to userspace) encompasses more than 90% of the cases, but there
are two other exceptions. Here is a list of exceptions:

* Protocol RAW:
   * cmd = SIOCGETVIFCNT:
     * input and output = struct sioc_vif_req
   * cmd = SIOCGETSGCNT
     * input and output = struct sioc_sg_req
   * Explanation: for the SIOCGETVIFCNT case, userspace passes the input
     argument, which is struct sioc_vif_req. Then the callback populates
     the struct, which is copied back to userspace.

* Protocol RAW6:
   * cmd = SIOCGETMIFCNT_IN6
     * input and output = struct sioc_mif_req6
   * cmd = SIOCGETSGCNT_IN6
     * input and output = struct sioc_sg_req6

* Protocol PHONET:
  * cmd == SIOCPNADDRESOURCE | SIOCPNDELRESOURCE
     * input int (4 bytes)
  * Nothing is copied back to userspace.

For the exception cases, functions sock_sk_ioctl_inout() will
copy the userspace input, and copy it back to kernel space.

The wrapper that prepare the buffer and put the buffer back to user is
sk_ioctl(), so, instead of calling sk-&gt;sk_prot-&gt;ioctl(), the callee now
calls sk_ioctl(), which will handle all cases.

<title>treewide: Convert del_timer*() to timer_shutdown*()</title>

<id>292a089d78d3e2f7944e60bb897c977785a321e3</id>
<content type='text'>
Due to several bugs caused by timers being re-armed after they are
shutdown and just before they are freed, a new state of timers was added
called "shutdown".  After a timer is set to this state, then it can no
longer be re-armed.

The following script was run to find all the trivial locations where
del_timer() or del_timer_sync() is called in the same function that the
object holding the timer is freed.  It also ignores any locations where
the timer-&gt;function is modified between the del_timer*() and the free(),
as that is not considered a "trivial" case.

This was created by using a coccinelle script and the following
commands:

    $ cat timer.cocci
    @@
    expression ptr, slab;
    identifier timer, rfield;
    @@
    (
    -       del_timer(&amp;ptr-&gt;timer);
