<title>RDS-TCP: Recover correctly from pskb_pull()/pksb_trim() failure in rds_tcp_data_recv</title>

<content type='text'>
Either of pskb_pull() or pskb_trim() may fail under low memory conditions.
If rds_tcp_data_recv() ignores such failures, the application will
receive corrupted data because the skb has not been correctly
carved to the RDS datagram size.

Avoid this by handling pskb_pull/pskb_trim failure in the same
manner as the skb_clone failure: bail out of rds_tcp_data_recv(), and
retry via the deferred call to rds_send_worker() that gets set up on
ENOMEM from rds_tcp_read_sock()

<title>net: Fix use after free by removing length arg from sk_data_ready callbacks.</title>

<id>676d23690fb62b5d51ba5d659935e9f7d9da9f8e</id>
<content type='text'>
Several spots in the kernel perform a sequence like:

	skb_queue_tail(&amp;sk-&gt;s_receive_queue, skb);
	sk-&gt;sk_data_ready(sk, skb-&gt;len);

But at the moment we place the SKB onto the socket receive queue it
can be consumed and freed up.  So this skb-&gt;len access is potentially
to freed up memory.

Furthermore, the skb-&gt;len can be modified by the consumer so it is
possible that the value isn't accurate.

And finally, no actual implementation of this callback actually uses
the length argument.  And since nobody actually cared about it's
value, lots of call sites pass arbitrary values in such as '0' and
even '1'.

So just remove the length argument from the callback, that way there
is no confusion whatsoever and all of these use-after-free cases get
fixed as a side effect.

Based upon a patch by Eric Dumazet and his suggestion to audit this
issue tree-wide.

Since we have already in BH context when *_write_space(),
*_data_ready() as well as *_state_change() are called, it's
unnecessary to disable BH.

We have for each socket :

One spinlock (sk_slock.slock)
One rwlock (sk_callback_lock)

Possible scenarios are :

(A) (this is used in net/sunrpc/xprtsock.c)
read_lock(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_callback_lock) (without blocking BH)
&lt;BH&gt;
spin_lock(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_slock.slock);
...
read_lock(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_callback_lock);
...

(B)
write_lock_bh(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_callback_lock)
stuff
write_unlock_bh(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_callback_lock)

(C)
spin_lock_bh(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_slock)
...
write_lock_bh(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_callback_lock)
stuff
write_unlock_bh(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_callback_lock)
spin_unlock_bh(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_slock)

This (C) case conflicts with (A) :

CPU1 [A]                         CPU2 [C]
read_lock(callback_lock)
&lt;BH&gt;                             spin_lock_bh(slock)
&lt;wait to spin_lock(slock)&gt;
                                 &lt;wait to write_lock_bh(callback_lock)&gt;

We have one problematic (C) use case in inet_csk_listen_stop() :

local_bh_disable();
bh_lock_sock(child); // spin_lock_bh(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_slock)
WARN_ON(sock_owned_by_user(child));
...
sock_orphan(child); // write_lock_bh(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_callback_lock)

lockdep is not happy with this, as reported by Tetsuo Handa

It seems only way to deal with this is to use read_lock_bh(callbacklock)
everywhere.

Thanks to Jarek for pointing a bug in my first attempt and suggesting
this solution.
