packet: packet_getname_spkt: make sure string is always 0-terminated

2013-06-13T08:38:36+00:00

uaddr->sa_data is exactly of size 14, which is hard-coded here and
passed as a size argument to strncpy(). A device name can be of size
IFNAMSIZ (== 16), meaning we might leave the destination string
unterminated. Thus, use strlcpy() and also sizeof() while we're
at it. We need to memset the data area beforehand, since strlcpy
does not padd the remaining buffer with zeroes for user space, so
that we do not possibly leak anything.

packet: tpacket_v3: do not trigger bug() on wrong header status

2013-05-03T20:10:33+00:00

Jakub reported that it is fairly easy to trigger the BUG() macro
from user space with TPACKET_V3's RX_RING by just giving a wrong
header status flag. We already had a similar situation in commit
7f5c3e3a80e6654 (``af_packet: remove BUG statement in
tpacket_destruct_skb'') where this was the case in the TX_RING
side that could be triggered from user space. So really, don't use
BUG() or BUG_ON() unless there's really no way out, and i.e.
don't use it for consistency checking when there's user space
involved, no excuses, especially not if you're slapping the user
with WARN + dump_stack + BUG all at once. The two functions are
of concern:

  prb_retire_current_block() [when block status != TP_STATUS_KERNEL]
  prb_open_block() [when block_status != TP_STATUS_KERNEL]

Calls to prb_open_block() are guarded by ealier checks if block_status
is really TP_STATUS_KERNEL (racy!), but the first one BUG() is easily
triggable from user space. System behaves still stable after they are
removed. Also remove that yoda condition entirely, since it's already
guarded.

packet: account statistics only in tpacket_stats_u

2013-04-25T05:29:43+00:00

Currently, packet_sock has a struct tpacket_stats stats member for
TPACKET_V1 and TPACKET_V2 statistic accounting, and with TPACKET_V3
``union tpacket_stats_u stats_u'' was introduced, where however only
statistics for TPACKET_V3 are held, and when copied to user space,
TPACKET_V3 does some hackery and access also tpacket_stats' stats,
although everything could have been done within the union itself.

Unify accounting within the tpacket_stats_u union so that we can
remove 8 bytes from packet_sock that are there unnecessary. Note that
even if we switch to TPACKET_V3 and would use non mmap(2)ed option,
this still works due to the union with same types + offsets, that are
exposed to the user space.

packet: if hw/sw ts enabled in rx/tx ring, report which ts we got

2013-04-25T05:22:22+00:00

Currently, there is no way to find out which timestamp is reported in
tpacket{,2,3}_hdr's tp_sec, tp_{n,u}sec members. It can be one of
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SYS_HARDWARE, SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RAW_HARDWARE,
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE, or a fallback variant late call from the
PF_PACKET code in software.

Therefore, report in the tp_status member of the ring buffer which
timestamp has been reported for RX and TX path. This should not break
anything for the following reasons: i) in RX ring path, the user needs
to test for tp_status & TP_STATUS_USER, and later for other flags as
well such as TP_STATUS_VLAN_VALID et al, so adding other flags will
do no harm; ii) in TX ring path, time stamps with PACKET_TIMESTAMP
socketoption are not available resp. had no effect except that the
application setting this is buggy. Next to TP_STATUS_AVAILABLE, the
user also should check for other flags such as TP_STATUS_WRONG_FORMAT
to reclaim frames to the application. Thus, in case TX ts are turned
off (default case), nothing happens to the application logic, and in
case we want to use this new feature, we now can also check which of
the ts source is reported in the status field as provided in the docs.

packet: enable hardware tx timestamping on tpacket ring

2013-04-25T05:22:22+00:00

Currently, we only have software timestamping for the TX ring buffer
path, but this limitation stems rather from the implementation. By
just reusing tpacket_get_timestamp(), we can also allow hardware
timestamping just as in the RX path.

packet: tx timestamping on tpacket ring

2013-04-25T05:22:22+00:00

When transmit timestamping is enabled at the socket level, record a
timestamp on packets written to a PACKET_TX_RING. Tx timestamps are
always looped to the application over the socket error queue. Software
timestamps are also written back into the packet frame header in the
packet ring.

packet: move hw/sw timestamp extraction into a small helper

2013-04-19T20:39:13+00:00

This patch introduces a small, internal helper function, that is used by
PF_PACKET. Based on the flags that are passed, it extracts the packet
timestamp in the receive path. This is merely a refactoring to remove
some duplicate code in tpacket_rcv(), to make it more readable, and to
enable others to use this function in PF_PACKET as well, e.g. for TX.

packet: minor: add generic tpacket_uhdr to access packet headers

2013-04-16T20:43:34+00:00

There is no need to add a dozen unions each time at the start
of the function. So, do this once and use it instead. Thus, we
can remove some duplicate code and make it more readable.

net: sock: make sock_tx_timestamp void

2013-04-14T19:41:49+00:00

Currently, sock_tx_timestamp() always returns 0. The comment that
describes the sock_tx_timestamp() function wrongly says that it
returns an error when an invalid argument is passed (from commit
20d4947353be, ``net: socket infrastructure for SO_TIMESTAMPING'').
Make the function void, so that we can also remove all the unneeded
if conditions that check for such a _non-existant_ error case in the
output path.

net: switch to use skb_probe_transport_header()

2013-03-27T16:48:31+00:00

Switch to use the new help skb_probe_transport_header() to do the l4 header
probing for untrusted sources. For packets with partial csum, the header should
already been set by skb_partial_csum_set().
