net: mctp: use nlmsg_payload() for netlink message data extraction

2025-05-26T15:38:27+00:00

Jakub suggests:

This refactors the additions to both mctp_dump_addrinfo(), and
mctp_rtm_getneigh() - two cases where we're calling nlh_data() on an
an incoming netlink message, without a prior nlmsg_parse().

For the neigh.c case, we cannot hit the failure where the nlh does not
contain a full ndmsg at present, as the core handler
(net/core/neighbour.c, neigh_get()) has already validated the size
through neigh_valid_req_get(), and would have failed the get operation
before the MCTP hander is called.

However, relying on that is a bit fragile, so apply the nlmsg_payload
refector here too.

net: mctp: Ensure keys maintain only one ref to corresponding dev

2025-05-09T23:22:53+00:00

mctp_flow_prepare_output() is called in mctp_route_output(), which
places outbound packets onto a given interface. The packet may represent
a message fragment, in which case we provoke an unbalanced reference
count to the underlying device. This causes trouble if we ever attempt
to remove the interface:

    [   48.702195] usb 1-1: USB disconnect, device number 2
    [   58.883056] unregister_netdevice: waiting for mctpusb0 to become free. Usage count = 2
    [   69.022548] unregister_netdevice: waiting for mctpusb0 to become free. Usage count = 2
    [   79.172568] unregister_netdevice: waiting for mctpusb0 to become free. Usage count = 2
    ...

Predicate the invocation of mctp_dev_set_key() in
mctp_flow_prepare_output() on not already having associated the device
with the key. It's not yet realistic to uphold the property that the key
maintains only one device reference earlier in the transmission sequence
as the route (and therefore the device) may not be known at the time the
key is associated with the socket.

net: mctp: Don't access ifa_index when missing

2025-05-09T22:03:53+00:00

In mctp_dump_addrinfo, ifa_index can be used to filter interfaces, but
only when the struct ifaddrmsg is provided. Otherwise it will be
comparing to uninitialised memory - reproducible in the syzkaller case from
dhcpd, or busybox "ip addr show".

The kernel MCTP implementation has always filtered by ifa_index, so
existing userspace programs expecting to dump MCTP addresses must
already be passing a valid ifa_index value (either 0 or a real index).

net: mctp: unshare packets when reassembling

2025-03-11T12:12:19+00:00

Ensure that the frag_list used for reassembly isn't shared with other
packets. This avoids incorrect reassembly when packets are cloned, and
prevents a memory leak due to circular references between fragments and
their skb_shared_info.

The upcoming MCTP-over-USB driver uses skb_clone which can trigger the
problem - other MCTP drivers don't share SKBs.

A kunit test is added to reproduce the issue.

net: mctp: handle skb cleanup on sock_queue failures

2024-12-19T10:52:49+00:00

Currently, we don't use the return value from sock_queue_rcv_skb, which
means we may leak skbs if a message is not successfully queued to a
socket.

Instead, ensure that we're freeing the skb where the sock hasn't
otherwise taken ownership of the skb by adding checks on the
sock_queue_rcv_skb() to invoke a kfree on failure.

In doing so, rather than using the 'rc' value to trigger the
kfree_skb(), use the skb pointer itself, which is more explicit.

Also, add a kunit test for the sock delivery failure cases.

mctp_dump_addrinfo() is one of the last users of
net->dev_index_head[] in the control path.

Switch to for_each_netdev_dump() for better scalability.

net: mctp: Expose transport binding identifier via IFLA attribute

2024-11-09T17:04:54+00:00

MCTP control protocol implementations are transport binding dependent.
Endpoint discovery is mandatory based on transport binding.
Message timing requirements are specified in each respective transport
binding specification.

However, we currently have no means to get this information from MCTP
links.

Add a IFLA_MCTP_PHYS_BINDING netlink link attribute, which represents
the transport type using the DMTF DSP0239-defined type numbers, returned
as part of RTM_GETLINK data.

We get an IFLA_MCTP_PHYS_BINDING attribute for each MCTP link, for
example:

- 0x00 (unspec) for loopback interface;
- 0x01 (SMBus/I2C) for mctpi2c%d interfaces; and
- 0x05 (serial) for mctpserial%d interfaces.
