[ Upstream commit 6321aa197547da397753757bd84c6ce64b3e3d89 ]
clang warns about overflowing the data[] member in the struct pnpipehdr:
net/phonet/pep.c:295:8: warning: array index 4 is past the end of the array (which contains 1 element) [-Warray-bounds]
if (hdr->data[4] == PEP_IND_READY)

u8 data[1];Using a flexible array member at the end of the struct avoids the
warning, but since we cannot have a flexible array member inside
of the union, each index now has to be moved back by one, which
makes it a little uglier.Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann

The poll() changes were not well thought out, and completely
unexplained. They also caused a huge performance regression, because
"->poll()" was no longer a trivial file operation that just called down
to the underlying file operations, but instead did at least two indirect
calls.Indirect calls are sadly slow now with the Spectre mitigation, but the
performance problem could at least be largely mitigated by changing the
"->get_poll_head()" operation to just have a per-file-descriptor pointer
to the poll head instead. That gets rid of one of the new indirections.But that doesn't fix the new complexity that is completely unwarranted
for the regular case. The (undocumented) reason for the poll() changes
was some alleged AIO poll race fixing, but we don't make the common case
slower and more complex for some uncommon special case, so this all
really needs way more explanations and most likely a fundamental
redesign.[ This revert is a revert of about 30 different commits, not reverted
individually because that would just be unnecessarily messy - Linus ]Cc: Al Viro

Changes since v1:
Added changes in these files:
drivers/infiniband/hw/usnic/usnic_transport.c
drivers/staging/lustre/lnet/lnet/lib-socket.c
drivers/target/iscsi/iscsi_target_login.c
drivers/vhost/net.c
fs/dlm/lowcomms.c
fs/ocfs2/cluster/tcp.c
security/tomoyo/network.cBefore:
All these functions either return a negative error indicator,
or store length of sockaddr into "int *socklen" parameter
and return zero on success."int *socklen" parameter is awkward. For example, if caller does not
care, it still needs to provide on-stack storage for the value
it does not need.None of the many FOO_getname() functions of various protocols
ever used old value of *socklen. They always just overwrite it.This change drops this parameter, and makes all these functions, on success,
return length of sockaddr. It's always >= 0 and can be differentiated
from an error.Tests in callers are changed from "if (err)" to "if (err < 0)", where needed.
rpc_sockname() lost "int buflen" parameter, since its only use was
to be passed to kernel_getsockname() as &buflen and subsequently
not used in any way.Userspace API is not changed.

This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
variables as described by Al, done by this script:for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
donewith de-mangling cleanups yet to come.
NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do. But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.Scripted-by: Al Viro

/proc has been ignoring struct file_operations::owner field for 10 years.
Specifically, it started with commit 786d7e1612f0b0adb6046f19b906609e4fe8b1ba
("Fix rmmod/read/write races in /proc entries"). Notice the chunk where
inode->i_fop is initialized with proxy struct file_operations for
regular files:- if (de->proc_fops)
- inode->i_fop = de->proc_fops;
+ if (de->proc_fops) {
+ if (S_ISREG(inode->i_mode))
+ inode->i_fop = &proc_reg_file_ops;
+ else
+ inode->i_fop = de->proc_fops;
+ }VFS stopped pinning module at this point.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if

Network devices can allocate reasources and private memory using
netdev_ops->ndo_init(). However, the release of these resources
can occur in one of two different places.Either netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() or netdev->destructor().
The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon
whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it
is safe to perform the freeing.netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the
NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast
address lists are flushed.netdev->destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the
netdev references all go away.Further complicating the situation is that netdev->destructor()
almost universally does also a free_netdev().This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice().
Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing
of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice()
fails.If netdev_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside
of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops->ndo_uninit(). But
it is not able to invoke netdev->destructor().This is because netdev->destructor() will do a free_netdev() and
then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same.However, this means that the resources that would normally be released
by netdev->destructor() will not be.Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by
invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice()
fails.Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks.
Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what
private things need to be freed up by netdev->destructor() and whether
the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev().netdev->priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private
resources that used to be freed by netdev->destructor(), except for
free_netdev().netdev->needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether
free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice().Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after
ndo_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops->ndo_uninit()
and netdev->priv_destructor().And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke
netdev->priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev().Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Lockdep issues a circular dependency warning when AFS issues an operation
through AF_RXRPC from a context in which the VFS/VM holds the mmap_sem.The theory lockdep comes up with is as follows:
(1) If the pagefault handler decides it needs to read pages from AFS, it
calls AFS with mmap_sem held and AFS begins an AF_RXRPC call, but
creating a call requires the socket lock:mmap_sem must be taken before sk_lock-AF_RXRPC
(2) afs_open_socket() opens an AF_RXRPC socket and binds it. rxrpc_bind()
binds the underlying UDP socket whilst holding its socket lock.
inet_bind() takes its own socket lock:sk_lock-AF_RXRPC must be taken before sk_lock-AF_INET
(3) Reading from a TCP socket into a userspace buffer might cause a fault
and thus cause the kernel to take the mmap_sem, but the TCP socket is
locked whilst doing this:sk_lock-AF_INET must be taken before mmap_sem
However, lockdep's theory is wrong in this instance because it deals only
with lock classes and not individual locks. The AF_INET lock in (2) isn't
really equivalent to the AF_INET lock in (3) as the former deals with a
socket entirely internal to the kernel that never sees userspace. This is
a limitation in the design of lockdep.Fix the general case by:
(1) Double up all the locking keys used in sockets so that one set are
used if the socket is created by userspace and the other set is used
if the socket is created by the kernel.(2) Store the kern parameter passed to sk_alloc() in a variable in the
sock struct (sk_kern_sock). This informs sock_lock_init(),
sock_init_data() and sk_clone_lock() as to the lock keys to be used.Note that the child created by sk_clone_lock() inherits the parent's
kern setting.(3) Add a 'kern' parameter to ->accept() that is analogous to the one
passed in to ->create() that distinguishes whether kernel_accept() or
sys_accept4() was the caller and can be passed to sk_alloc().Note that a lot of accept functions merely dequeue an already
allocated socket. I haven't touched these as the new socket already
exists before we get the parameter.Note also that there are a couple of places where I've made the accepted
socket unconditionally kernel-based:irda_accept()
rds_rcp_accept_one()
tcp_accept_from_sock()because they follow a sock_create_kern() and accept off of that.
Whilst creating this, I noticed that lustre and ocfs don't create sockets
through sock_create_kern() and thus they aren't marked as for-kernel,
though they appear to be internal. I wonder if these should do that so
that they use the new set of lock keys.Signed-off-by: David Howells

Make struct pernet_operations::id unsigned.
There are 2 reasons to do so:
1)
This field is really an index into an zero based array and
thus is unsigned entity. Using negative value is out-of-bound
access by definition.2)
On x86_64 unsigned 32-bit data which are mixed with pointers
via array indexing or offsets added or subtracted to pointers
are preffered to signed 32-bit data."int" being used as an array index needs to be sign-extended
to 64-bit before being used.void f(long *p, int i)
{
g(p[i]);
}roughly translates to
movsx rsi, esi
mov rdi, [rsi+...]
call gMOVSX is 3 byte instruction which isn't necessary if the variable is
unsigned because x86_64 is zero extending by default.Now, there is net_generic() function which, you guessed it right, uses
"int" as an array index:static inline void *net_generic(const struct net *net, int id)
{
...
ptr = ng->ptr[id - 1];
...
}And this function is used a lot, so those sign extensions add up.
Patch snipes ~1730 bytes on allyesconfig kernel (without all junk
messing with code generation):add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 70/598 up/down: 396/-2126 (-1730)
Unfortunately some functions actually grow bigger.
This is a semmingly random artefact of code generation with register
allocator being used differently. gcc decides that some variable
needs to live in new r8+ registers and every access now requires REX
prefix. Or it is shifted into r12, so [r12+0] addressing mode has to be
used which is longer than [r8]However, overall balance is in negative direction:

Similar to commit 14135f30e33c ("inet: fix sleeping inside inet_wait_for_connect()"),
sk_wait_event() needs to fix too, because release_sock() is blocking,
it changes the process state back to running after sleep, which breaks
the previous prepare_to_wait().Switch to the new wait API.

In order to support fast reuseport lookups in TCP, the hash function
defined in struct proto must be capable of returning an error code.
This patch changes the function signature of all related hash functions
to return an integer and handles or propagates this return value at
all call sites.Signed-off-by: Craig Gallek

Ivaylo Dimitrov reported a regression caused by commit 7866a621043f
("dev: add per net_device packet type chains").skb->dev becomes NULL and we crash in __netif_receive_skb_core().
Before above commit, different kind of bugs or corruptions could happen
without major crash.But the root cause is that phonet_rcv() can queue skb without checking
if skb is shared or not.Many thanks to Ivaylo Dimitrov for his help, diagnosis and tests.

After TIPC doesn't depend on iocb argument in its internal
implementations of sendmsg() and recvmsg() hooks defined in proto
structure, no any user is using iocb argument in them at all now.
Then we can drop the redundant iocb argument completely from kinds of
implementations of both sendmsg() and recvmsg() in the entire
networking stack.Cc: Christoph Hellwig

My previous patch to this file changed the code to be bug-compatible
towards userspace. Unless userspace (which I wasn't able to find)
implements the dump reader by hand in a wrong way, this isn't needed.
If it uses libnl or similar code putting multiple messages into a
single SKB is far more efficient.Change the code to do this. While at it, also clean it up and don't
use so many variables - just store the address in the callback args
directly.Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

Contrary to common expectations for an "int" return, these functions
return only a positive value -- if used correctly they cannot even
return 0 because the message header will necessarily be in the skb.This makes the very common pattern of
if (genlmsg_end(...) < 0) { ... }
be a whole bunch of dead code. Many places also simply do
return nlmsg_end(...);
and the caller is expected to deal with it.
This also commonly (at least for me) causes errors, because it is very
common to writeif (my_function(...))
/* error condition */and if my_function() does "return nlmsg_end()" this is of course wrong.
Additionally, there's not a single place in the kernel that actually
needs the message length returned, and if anyone needs it later then
it'll be very easy to just use skb->len there.Remove this, and make the functions void. This removes a bunch of dead
code as described above. The patch adds lines because I did- return nlmsg_end(...);
+ nlmsg_end(...);
+ return 0;I could have preserved all the function's return values by returning
skb->len, but instead I've audited all the places calling the affected
functions and found that none cared. A few places actually compared
the return value with < 0 with no change in behaviour, so I opted for the more
efficient version.One instance of the error I've made numerous times now is also present
in net/phonet/pn_netlink.c in the route_dumpit() function - it didn't
check for

Use the more common dynamic_debug capable net_dbg_ratelimited
and remove the LIMIT_NETDEBUG macro.All messages are still ratelimited.
Some KERN_ uses are changed to KERN_DEBUG.
This may have some negative impact on messages that were
emitted at KERN_INFO that are not not enabled at all unless
DEBUG is defined or dynamic_debug is enabled. Even so,
these messages are now _not_ emitted by default.This also eliminates the use of the net_msg_warn sysctl
"/proc/sys/net/core/warnings". For backward compatibility,
the sysctl is not removed, but it has no function. The extern
declaration of net_msg_warn is removed from sock.h and made
static in net/core/sysctl_net_core.cMiscellanea:
o Update the sysctl documentation
o Remove the embedded uses of pr_fmt
o Coalesce format fragments
o Realign argumentsSigned-off-by: Joe Perches

This encapsulates all of the skb_copy_datagram_iovec() callers
with call argument signature "skb, offset, msghdr->msg_iov, length".When we move to iov_iters in the networking, the iov_iter object will
sit in the msghdr.Having a helper like this means there will be less places to touch
during that transformation.Based upon descriptions and patch from Al Viro.
