mptcp: prefer strscpy over strcpy

2024-05-14T01:29:23+00:00

strcpy() performs no bounds checking on the destination buffer. This
could result in linear overflows beyond the end of the buffer, leading
to all kinds of misbehaviors. The safe replacement is strscpy() [1].

This is in preparation of a possible future step where all strcpy() uses
will be removed in favour of strscpy() [2].

This fixes CheckPatch warnings:

2024-05-14T01:29:23+00:00

The sysctl lists the available schedulers that can be set using
net.mptcp.scheduler similarly to net.ipv4.tcp_available_congestion_control.

mptcp: only allow set existing scheduler for net.mptcp.scheduler

2024-05-08T00:23:35+00:00

The current behavior is to accept any strings as inputs, this results in
an inconsistent result where an unexisting scheduler can be set:

  # sysctl -w net.mptcp.scheduler=notdefault
  net.mptcp.scheduler = notdefault

This patch changes this behavior by checking for existing scheduler
before accepting the input.

net: Remove ctl_table sentinel elements from several networking subsystems

2024-05-03T12:29:42+00:00

This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the
empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which
will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link :
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/)

To avoid lots of small commits, this commit brings together network
changes from (as they appear in MAINTAINERS) LLC, MPTCP, NETROM NETWORK
LAYER, PHONET PROTOCOL, ROSE NETWORK LAYER, RXRPC SOCKETS, SCTP
PROTOCOL, SHARED MEMORY COMMUNICATIONS (SMC), TIPC NETWORK LAYER and
NETWORKING [IPSEC]

* Remove sentinel element from ctl_table structs.
* Replace empty array registration with the register_net_sysctl_sz call
  in llc_sysctl_init
* Replace the for loop stop condition that tests for procname == NULL
  with one that depends on array size in sctp_sysctl_net_register
* Remove instances where an array element is zeroed out to make it look
  like a sentinel in xfrm_sysctl_init. This is not longer needed and is
  safe after commit c899710fe7f9 ("networking: Update to
  register_net_sysctl_sz") added the array size to the ctl_table
  registration
* Use a table_size variable to keep the value of ARRAY_SIZE

sysctl: treewide: constify ctl_table_header::ctl_table_arg

2024-04-22T07:56:31+00:00

To be able to constify instances of struct ctl_tables it is necessary to
remove ways through which non-const versions are exposed from the
sysctl core.
One of these is the ctl_table_arg member of struct ctl_table_header.

Constify this reference as a prerequisite for the full constification of
struct ctl_table instances.
No functional change.

mptcp: add a new sysctl for make after break timeout

2023-10-25T19:23:33+00:00

The MPTCP protocol allows sockets with no alive subflows to stay
in ESTABLISHED status for and user-defined timeout, to allow for
later subflows creation.

Currently such timeout is constant - TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN. Let the
user-space configure them via a newly added sysctl, to better cope
with busy servers and simplify (make them faster) the relevant
pktdrill tests.

Note that the new know does not apply to orphaned MPTCP socket
waiting for the data_fin handshake completion: they always wait
TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN.

Merge tag 'sysctl-6.6-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux

2023-08-30T00:39:15+00:00

Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain:
 "Long ago we set out to remove the kitchen sink on kernel/sysctl.c
  arrays and placings sysctls to their own sybsystem or file to help
  avoid merge conflicts. Matthew Wilcox pointed out though that if we're
  going to do that we might as well also *save* space while at it and
  try to remove the extra last sysctl entry added at the end of each
  array, a sentintel, instead of bloating the kernel by adding a new
  sentinel with each array moved.

  Doing that was not so trivial, and has required slowing down the moves
  of kernel/sysctl.c arrays and measuring the impact on size by each new
  move.

  The complex part of the effort to help reduce the size of each sysctl
  is being done by the patient work of el señor Don Joel Granados. A lot
  of this is truly painful code refactoring and testing and then trying
  to measure the savings of each move and removing the sentinels.
  Although Joel already has code which does most of this work,
  experience with sysctl moves in the past shows is we need to be
  careful due to the slew of odd build failures that are possible due to
  the amount of random Kconfig options sysctls use.

  To that end Joel's work is split by first addressing the major
  housekeeping needed to remove the sentinels, which is part of this
  merge request. The rest of the work to actually remove the sentinels
  will be done later in future kernel releases.

  The preliminary math is showing this will all help reduce the overall
  build time size of the kernel and run time memory consumed by the
  kernel by about ~64 bytes per array where we are able to remove each
  sentinel in the future. That also means there is no more bloating the
  kernel with the extra ~64 bytes per array moved as no new sentinels
  are created"

networking: Update to register_net_sysctl_sz

2023-08-15T22:26:18+00:00

Move from register_net_sysctl to register_net_sysctl_sz for all the
networking related files. Do this while making sure to mirror the NULL
assignments with a table_size of zero for the unprivileged users.

We need to move to the new function in preparation for when we change
SIZE_MAX to ARRAY_SIZE() in the register_net_sysctl macro. Failing to do
so would erroneously allow ARRAY_SIZE() to be called on a pointer. We
hold off the SIZE_MAX to ARRAY_SIZE change until we have migrated all
the relevant net sysctl registering functions to register_net_sysctl_sz
in subsequent commits.

An additional size function was added to the following files in order to
calculate the size of an array that is defined in another file:
    include/net/ipv6.h
    net/ipv6/icmp.c
    net/ipv6/route.c
    net/ipv6/sysctl_net_ipv6.c
