[ Upstream commit f1712c73714088a7252d276a57126d56c7d37e64 ]

Zhang Yanmin reported crashes [1] and provided a patch adding a
synchronize_rcu() call in can_rx_unregister()

The main problem seems that the sockets themselves are not RCU
protected.

If CAN uses RCU for delivery, then sockets should be freed only after
one RCU grace period.

Recent kernels could use sock_set_flag(sk, SOCK_RCU_FREE), but let's
ease stable backports with the following fix instead.

commit a06393ed03167771246c4c43192d9c264bc48412 upstream.

When removing a bcm tx operation either a hrtimer or a tasklet might run.
As the hrtimer triggers its associated tasklet and vice versa we need to
take care to mutually terminate both handlers.

<title>can: bcm: fix support for CAN FD frames</title>

<content type='text'>
Since commit 6f3b911d5f29b98 ("can: bcm: add support for CAN FD frames") the
CAN broadcast manager supports CAN and CAN FD data frames.

As these data frames are embedded in struct can[fd]_frames which have a
different length the access to the provided array of CAN frames became
dependend of op-&gt;cfsiz. By using a struct canfd_frame pointer for the array of
CAN frames the new offset calculation based on op-&gt;cfsiz was accidently applied
to CAN FD frame element lengths.

This fix makes the pointer to the arrays of the different CAN frame types a
void pointer so that the offset calculation in bytes accesses the correct CAN
frame elements.

<id>6f3b911d5f29b98752e5da86a295210c0c4f4e14</id>
<content type='text'>
The programming API of the CAN_BCM depends on struct can_frame which is
given as array directly behind the bcm_msg_head structure. To follow this
schema for the CAN FD frames a new flag 'CAN_FD_FRAME' in the bcm_msg_head
flags indicates that the concatenated CAN frame structures behind the
bcm_msg_head are defined as struct canfd_frame.

This patch adds the support to handle CAN and CAN FD frames on a per BCM-op
base. Main changes:

- generally use struct canfd_frames instead if struct can_frames
- use canfd_frame.flags instead of can_frame.can_dlc for private BCM flags
- make all CAN frame sizes depending on the new CAN_FD_FRAME flags
- separate between CAN and CAN FD when sending/receiving frames

Due to the dependence of the CAN_FD_FRAME flag the former binary interface
for classic CAN frames remains stable.

<title>can: avoid using timeval for uapi</title>

<id>ba61a8d9d780980e8284355a0be750897e7af212</id>
<content type='text'>
The can subsystem communicates with user space using a bcm_msg_head
header, which contains two timestamps. This is problematic for
multiple reasons:

a) The structure layout is currently incompatible between 64-bit
   user space and 32-bit user space, and cannot work in compat
   mode (other than x32).

b) The timeval structure layout will change in 32-bit user
   space when we fix the y2038 overflow problem by redefining
   time_t to 64-bit, making new 32-bit user space incompatible
   with the current kernel interface.
   Cars last a long time and often use old kernels, so the actual
   users of this code are the most likely ones to migrate to y2038
   safe user space.

This tries to work around part of the problem by changing the
publicly visible user interface in the header, but not the binary
interface. Fortunately, the values passed around in the structure
are relative times and do not actually suffer from the y2038
overflow, so 32-bit is enough here.

We replace the use of 'struct timeval' with a newly defined
'struct bcm_timeval' that uses the exact same binary layout
as before and that still suffers from problem a) but not problem
b).

The downside of this approach is that any user space program
that currently assigns a timeval structure to these members
rather than writing the tv_sec/tv_usec portions individually
will suffer a compile-time error when built with an updated
kernel header. Fixing this error makes it work fine with old
and new headers though.

We could address problem a) by using '__u32' or 'int' members
rather than 'long', but that would have a more significant
downside in also breaking support for all existing 64-bit user
binaries that might be using this interface, which is likely
not acceptable.

The can subsystem communicates with user space using a bcm_msg_head
header, which contains two timestamps. This is problematic for
multiple reasons:

a) The structure layout is currently incompatible between 64-bit
   user space and 32-bit user space, and cannot work in compat
   mode (other than x32).

b) The timeval structure layout will change in 32-bit user
   space when we fix the y2038 overflow problem by redefining
   time_t to 64-bit, making new 32-bit user space incompatible
   with the current kernel interface.
   Cars last a long time and often use old kernels, so the actual
   users of this code are the most likely ones to migrate to y2038
   safe user space.

This tries to work around part of the problem by changing the
publicly visible user interface in the header, but not the binary
interface. Fortunately, the values passed around in the structure
are relative times and do not actually suffer from the y2038
overflow, so 32-bit is enough here.

We replace the use of 'struct timeval' with a newly defined
'struct bcm_timeval' that uses the exact same binary layout
as before and that still suffers from problem a) but not problem
b).

The downside of this approach is that any user space program
that currently assigns a timeval structure to these members
rather than writing the tv_sec/tv_usec portions individually
will suffer a compile-time error when built with an updated
kernel header. Fixing this error makes it work fine with old
and new headers though.

We could address problem a) by using '__u32' or 'int' members
rather than 'long', but that would have a more significant
downside in also breaking support for all existing 64-bit user
binaries that might be using this interface, which is likely
not acceptable.

Commit 514ac99c64b "can: fix multiple delivery of a single CAN frame for
overlapping CAN filters" requires the skb-&gt;tstamp to be set to check for
identical CAN skbs.

Without timestamping to be required by user space applications this timestamp
was not generated which lead to commit 36c01245eb8 "can: fix loss of CAN frames
in raw_rcv" - which forces the timestamp to be set in all CAN related skbuffs
by introducing several __net_timestamp() calls.

This forces e.g. out of tree drivers which are not using alloc_can{,fd}_skb()
to add __net_timestamp() after skbuff creation to prevent the frame loss fixed
in mainline Linux.

This patch removes the timestamp dependency and uses an atomic counter to
create an unique identifier together with the skbuff pointer.

Btw: the new skbcnt element introduced in struct can_skb_priv has to be
initialized with zero in out-of-tree drivers which are not using
alloc_can{,fd}_skb() too.
