[ Upstream commit 919483096bfe75dda338e98d56da91a263746a0a ]

Dmitry reported memory leaks of IP options allocated in
ip_cmsg_send() when/if this function returns an error.

Callers are responsible for the freeing.

Many thanks to Dmitry for the report and diagnostic.

Sasha reported the following lockdep warning:

  Possible unsafe locking scenario:

        CPU0                    CPU1
        ----                    ----
   lock(sk_lock-AF_INET);
                                lock(rtnl_mutex);
                                lock(sk_lock-AF_INET);
   lock(rtnl_mutex);

This is due to that for IP_MSFILTER and MCAST_MSFILTER, we take
rtnl lock before the socket lock in setsockopt() path, but take
the socket lock before rtnl lock in getsockopt() path. All the
rest optnames are setsockopt()-only.

Fix this by aligning the getsockopt() path with the setsockopt()
path, so that all mcast socket path would be locked in the same
order.

Note, IPv6 part is different where rtnl lock is not held.

Fixes: 54ff9ef36bdf ("ipv4, ipv6: kill ip_mc_{join, leave}_group and ipv6_sock_mc_{join, drop}")

ICMP messages can trigger ICMP and local errors. In this case
serr-&gt;port is 0 and starting from Linux 4.0 we do not return
the original target address to the error queue readers.
Add function to define which errors provide addr_offset.
With this fix my ping command is not silent anymore.

<title>inet: add IP_BIND_ADDRESS_NO_PORT to overcome bind(0) limitations</title>

<id>90c337da1524863838658078ec34241f45d8394d</id>
<content type='text'>
When an application needs to force a source IP on an active TCP socket
it has to use bind(IP, port=x).

As most applications do not want to deal with already used ports, x is
often set to 0, meaning the kernel is in charge to find an available
port.
But kernel does not know yet if this socket is going to be a listener or
be connected.
It has very limited choices (no full knowledge of final 4-tuple for a
connect())

With limited ephemeral port range (about 32K ports), it is very easy to
fill the space.

This patch adds a new SOL_IP socket option, asking kernel to ignore
the 0 port provided by application in bind(IP, port=0) and only
remember the given IP address.

The port will be automatically chosen at connect() time, in a way
that allows sharing a source port as long as the 4-tuples are unique.

This new feature is available for both IPv4 and IPv6 (Thanks Neal)

Tested:

Wrote a test program and checked its behavior on IPv4 and IPv6.

strace(1) shows sequences of bind(IP=127.0.0.2, port=0) followed by
connect().
Also getsockname() show that the port is still 0 right after bind()
but properly allocated after connect().

socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_IP) = 5
setsockopt(5, SOL_IP, IP_BIND_ADDRESS_NO_PORT, [1], 4) = 0
bind(5, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(0), sin_addr=inet_addr("127.0.0.2")}, 16) = 0
getsockname(5, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(0), sin_addr=inet_addr("127.0.0.2")}, [16]) = 0
connect(5, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(53174), sin_addr=inet_addr("127.0.0.3")}, 16) = 0
getsockname(5, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(38050), sin_addr=inet_addr("127.0.0.2")}, [16]) = 0

IPv6 test :

socket(PF_INET6, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_IP) = 7
setsockopt(7, SOL_IP, IP_BIND_ADDRESS_NO_PORT, [1], 4) = 0
bind(7, {sa_family=AF_INET6, sin6_port=htons(0), inet_pton(AF_INET6, "::1", &amp;sin6_addr), sin6_flowinfo=0, sin6_scope_id=0}, 28) = 0
getsockname(7, {sa_family=AF_INET6, sin6_port=htons(0), inet_pton(AF_INET6, "::1", &amp;sin6_addr), sin6_flowinfo=0, sin6_scope_id=0}, [28]) = 0
connect(7, {sa_family=AF_INET6, sin6_port=htons(57300), inet_pton(AF_INET6, "::1", &amp;sin6_addr), sin6_flowinfo=0, sin6_scope_id=0}, 28) = 0
getsockname(7, {sa_family=AF_INET6, sin6_port=htons(60964), inet_pton(AF_INET6, "::1", &amp;sin6_addr), sin6_flowinfo=0, sin6_scope_id=0}, [28]) = 0

I was able to bind()/connect() a million concurrent IPv4 sockets,
instead of ~32000 before patch.

lpaa23:~# ulimit -n 1000010
lpaa23:~# ./bind --connect --num-flows=1000000 &amp;
1000000 sockets

lpaa23:~# grep TCP /proc/net/sockstat
TCP: inuse 2000063 orphan 0 tw 47 alloc 2000157 mem 66

Check that a given source port is indeed used by many different
connections :

The ipv4 code uses a mixture of coding styles. In some instances check
for non-NULL pointer is done as x != NULL and sometimes as x. x is
preferred according to checkpatch and this patch makes the code
consistent by adopting the latter form.

The ipv4 code uses a mixture of coding styles. In some instances check
for NULL pointer is done as x == NULL and sometimes as !x. !x is
preferred according to checkpatch and this patch makes the code
consistent by adopting the latter form.

in favor of their inner __ ones, which doesn't grab rtnl.

As these functions need to operate on a locked socket, we can't be
grabbing rtnl by then. It's too late and doing so causes reversed
locking.

So this patch:
- move rtnl handling to callers instead while already fixing some
  reversed locking situations, like on vxlan and ipvs code.
- renames __ ones to not have the __ mark:
  __ip_mc_{join,leave}_group -&gt; ip_mc_{join,leave}_group
  __ipv6_sock_mc_{join,drop} -&gt; ipv6_sock_mc_{join,drop}

<title>ipv4,ipv6: grab rtnl before locking the socket</title>

There are some setsockopt operations in ipv4 and ipv6 that are grabbing
rtnl after having grabbed the socket lock. Yet this makes it impossible
to do operations that have to lock the socket when already within a rtnl
protected scope, like ndo dev_open and dev_stop.

We normally take coarse grained locks first but setsockopt inverted that.

So this patch invert the lock logic for these operations and makes
setsockopt grab rtnl if it will be needed prior to grabbing socket lock.

<title>ip: fix error queue empty skb handling</title>

When reading from the error queue, msg_name and msg_control are only
populated for some errors. A new exception for empty timestamp skbs
added a false positive on icmp errors without payload.

`traceroute -M udpconn` only displayed gateways that return payload
with the icmp error: the embedded network headers are pulled before
sock_queue_err_skb, leaving an skb with skb-&gt;len == 0 otherwise.

Fix this regression by refining when msg_name and msg_control
branches are taken. The solutions for the two fields are independent.

msg_name only makes sense for errors that configure serr-&gt;port and
serr-&gt;addr_offset. Test the first instead of skb-&gt;len. This also fixes
another issue. saddr could hold the wrong data, as serr-&gt;addr_offset
is not initialized  in some code paths, pointing to the start of the
network header. It is only valid when serr-&gt;port is set (non-zero).

msg_control support differs between IPv4 and IPv6. IPv4 only honors
requests for ICMP and timestamps with SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_CMSG. The
skb-&gt;len test can simply be removed, because skb-&gt;dev is also tested
and never true for empty skbs. IPv6 honors requests for all errors
aside from local errors and timestamps on empty skbs.

In both cases, make the policy more explicit by moving this logic to
a new function that decides whether to process msg_control and that
optionally prepares the necessary fields in skb-&gt;cb[]. After this
change, the IPv4 and IPv6 paths are more similar.

The last case is rxrpc. Here, simply refine to only match timestamps.

Fixes: 49ca0d8bfaf3 ("net-timestamp: no-payload option")
