compat_ioctl: move drivers to compat_ptr_ioctl

2019-10-23T15:23:43+00:00

Each of these drivers has a copy of the same trivial helper function to
convert the pointer argument and then call the native ioctl handler.

We now have a generic implementation of that, so use it.

coallocate socket_wq with socket itself

2019-07-09T02:25:19+00:00

socket->wq is assign-once, set when we are initializing both
struct socket it's in and struct socket_wq it points to.  As the
matter of fact, the only reason for separate allocation was the
ability to RCU-delay freeing of socket_wq.  RCU-delaying the
freeing of socket itself gets rid of that need, so we can just
fold struct socket_wq into the end of struct socket and simplify
the life both for sock_alloc_inode() (one allocation instead of
two) and for tun/tap oddballs, where we used to embed struct socket
and struct socket_wq into the same structure (now - embedding just
the struct socket).

Note that reference to struct socket_wq in struct sock does remain
a reference - that's unchanged.

treewide: Add SPDX license identifier for more missed files

2019-05-21T08:50:45+00:00

Add SPDX license identifiers to all files which:

 - Have no license information of any form

 - Have MODULE_LICENCE("GPL*") inside which was used in the initial
   scan/conversion to ignore the file

These files fall under the project license, GPL v2 only. The resulting SPDX
license identifier is:

  GPL-2.0-only

net: Don't set transport offset to invalid value

2019-02-22T20:55:31+00:00

If the socket was created with socket(AF_PACKET, SOCK_RAW, 0),
skb->protocol will be unset, __skb_flow_dissect() will fail, and
skb_probe_transport_header() will fall back to the offset_hint, making
the resulting skb_transport_offset incorrect.

If, however, there is no transport header in the packet,
transport_header shouldn't be set to an arbitrary value.

Fix it by leaving the transport offset unset if it couldn't be found, to
be explicit rather than to fill it with some wrong value. It changes the
behavior, but if some code relied on the old behavior, it would be
broken anyway, as the old one is incorrect.

tap: call skb_probe_transport_header after setting skb->dev

2019-01-01T20:01:02+00:00

The BPF flow dissector expects either skb->sk or skb->dev set on
all skbs. Delay flow dissection until after skb->dev is set.

This requires calling from within an rcu read-side critical section.
That is fine, see also the call from tun_xdp_one.

net: dev: Add extack argument to dev_set_mac_address()

2018-12-14T02:41:38+00:00

A follow-up patch will add a notifier type NETDEV_PRE_CHANGEADDR, which
allows vetoing of MAC address changes. One prominent path to that
notification is through dev_set_mac_address(). Therefore give this
function an extack argument, so that it can be packed together with the
notification. Thus a textual reason for rejection (or a warning) can be
communicated back to the user.

net: tap: remove redundant null pointer check before kfree_skb

2018-09-21T16:04:37+00:00

kfree_skb has taken the null pointer into account. hence it is safe
to remove the redundant null pointer check before kfree_skb.

tap: accept an array of XDP buffs through sendmsg()

2018-09-13T16:25:41+00:00

This patch implement TUN_MSG_PTR msg_control type. This type allows
the caller to pass an array of XDP buffs to tuntap through ptr field
of the tun_msg_control. Tap will build skb through those XDP buffers.

This will avoid lots of indirect calls thus improves the icache
utilization and allows to do XDP batched flushing when doing XDP
redirection.

tun: switch to new type of msg_control

2018-09-13T16:25:40+00:00

This patch introduces to a new tun/tap specific msg_control:

#define TUN_MSG_UBUF 1
#define TUN_MSG_PTR  2
struct tun_msg_ctl {
       int type;
       void *ptr;
};

This allows us to pass different kinds of msg_control through
sendmsg(). The first supported type is ubuf (TUN_MSG_UBUF) which will
be used by the existed vhost_net zerocopy code. The second is XDP
buff, which allows vhost_net to pass XDP buff to TUN. This could be
used to implement accepting an array of XDP buffs from vhost_net in
the following patches.
