2023-06-12netlink: support extack in dump ->start()Jakub Kicinski
Commit 4a19edb60d02 ("netlink: Pass extack to dump handlers") added extack support to netlink dumps. It was focused on rtnl and since rtnl does not use ->start(), ->done() callbacks it ignored those. Genetlink on the other hand uses ->start() extensively, for parsing and input validation. Pass the extact in via struct netlink_dump_control and link it to cb for the time of ->start(). Both struct netlink_dump_control and extack itself live on the stack so we can't keep the same extack for the duration of the dump. This means that the extack visible in ->start() and each ->dump() callbacks will be different. Corner cases like reporting a warning message in DONE across dump calls are still not supported. We could put the extack (for dumps) in the socket struct, but layering makes it slightly awkward (extack pointer is decided before the DO / DUMP split). The genetlink dump error extacks are now surfaced: $ cli.py --spec netlink/specs/ethtool.yaml --dump channels-get lib.ynl.NlError: Netlink error: Invalid argument nl_len = 64 (48) nl_flags = 0x300 nl_type = 2 error: -22 extack: {'msg': 'request header missing'} Previously extack was missing: $ cli.py --spec netlink/specs/ethtool.yaml --dump channels-get lib.ynl.NlError: Netlink error: Invalid argument nl_len = 36 (20) nl_flags = 0x100 nl_type = 2 error: -22 Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2022-08-30netlink: add support for ext_ack missing attributesJakub Kicinski
There is currently no way to report via extack in a structured way that an attribute is missing. This leads to families resorting to string messages. Add a pair of attributes - @offset and @type for machine-readable way of reporting missing attributes. The @offset points to the nest which should have contained the attribute, @type is the expected nla_type. The offset will be skipped if the attribute is missing at the message level rather than inside a nest. User space should be able to figure out which attribute enum (AKA attribute space AKA attribute set) the nest pointed to by @offset is using.

2021-02-04netlink: add tracepoint at NL_SET_ERR_MSGMarcelo Ricardo Leitner
Often userspace won't request the extack information, or they don't log it because of log level or so, and even when they do, sometimes it's not enough to know exactly what caused the error. Netlink extack is the standard way of reporting erros with descriptive error messages. With a trace point on it, we then can know exactly where the error happened, regardless of userspace app. Also, we can even see if the err msg was overwritten. The wrapper do_trace_netlink_extack() is because trace points shouldn't be called from .h files, as trace points are not that small, and the function call to do_trace_netlink_extack() on the macros is not protected by tracepoint_enabled() because the macros are called from modules, and this would require exporting some trace structs. As this is error path, it's better to export just the wrapper instead. v2: removed leftover tracepoint declaration Signed-off-by: Marcelo Ricardo Leitner <marcelo.leitner@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: David Ahern <dsahern@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/4546b63e67b2989789d146498b13cc09e1fdc543.1612403190.git.marcelo.leitner@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

"ip addr show" command execute error when we have a physical network card with a large number of VFs The return value of if_nlmsg_size() in rtnl_calcit() will exceed range of u16 data type when any network cards has a larger number of VFs. rtnl_vfinfo_size() will significant increase needed dump size when the value of num_vfs is larger. Eventually we get a wrong value of min_ifinfo_dump_size because of overflow which decides the memory size needed by netlink dump and netlink_dump() will return -EMSGSIZE because of not enough memory was allocated. So fix it by promoting min_dump_alloc data type to u32 to avoid whole netlink message size overflow and it's also align with the data type of struct netlink_callback{}.min_dump_alloc which is assigned by return value of rtnl_calcit() Signed-off-by: Di Zhu <zhudi21@huawei.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201021020053.1401-1-zhudi21@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

2020-02-27bpf: inet_diag: Dump bpf_sk_storages in inet_diag_dump()Martin KaFai Lau
This patch will dump out the bpf_sk_storages of a sk if the request has the INET_DIAG_REQ_SK_BPF_STORAGES nlattr. An array of SK_DIAG_BPF_STORAGE_REQ_MAP_FD can be specified in INET_DIAG_REQ_SK_BPF_STORAGES to select which bpf_sk_storage to dump. If no map_fd is specified, all bpf_sk_storages of a sk will be dumped. bpf_sk_storages can be added to the system at runtime. It is difficult to find a proper static value for cb->min_dump_alloc. This patch learns the nlattr size required to dump the bpf_sk_storages of a sk. If it happens to be the very first nlmsg of a dump and it cannot fit the needed bpf_sk_storages, it will try to expand the skb by "pskb_expand_head()". Instead of expanding it in inet_sk_diag_fill(), it is expanded at a sleepable context in __inet_diag_dump() so __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM can be used. In __inet_diag_dump(), it will retry as long as the skb is empty and the cb->min_dump_alloc becomes larger than before. cb->min_dump_alloc is bounded by KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE. The min_dump_alloc is also changed from 'u16' to 'u32' to accommodate a sk that may have a few large bpf_sk_storages. The updated cb->min_dump_alloc will also be used to allocate the skb in the next dump. This logic already exists in netlink_dump(). Here is the sample output of a locally modified 'ss' and it could be made more readable by using BTF later: [root@arch-fb-vm1 ~]# ss --bpf-map-id 14 --bpf-map-id 13 -t6an 'dst [::1]:8989' State Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address:Port Peer Address:PortProcess ESTAB 0 0 [::1]:51072 [::1]:8989 bpf_map_id:14 value:[ 3feb ] bpf_map_id:13 value:[ 3f ] ESTAB 0 0 [::1]:51070 [::1]:8989 bpf_map_id:14 value:[ 3feb ] bpf_map_id:13 value:[ 3f ] [root@arch-fb-vm1 ~]# ~/devshare/github/iproute2/misc/ss --bpf-maps -t6an 'dst [::1]:8989' State Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address:Port Peer Address:Port Process ESTAB 0 0 [::1]:51072 [::1]:8989 bpf_map_id:14 value:[ 3feb ] bpf_map_id:13 value:[ 3f ] bpf_map_id:12 value:[ 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000... total:65407 ] ESTAB 0 0 [::1]:51070 [::1]:8989 bpf_map_id:14 value:[ 3feb ] bpf_map_id:13 value:[ 3f ] bpf_map_id:12 value:[ 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000... total:65407 ] Signed-off-by: Martin KaFai Lau <kafai@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Acked-by: Song Liu <songliubraving@fb.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20200225230427.1976129-1-kafai@fb.com

People are inclined to stuff random things into cb->args[n] because it looks like an array of integers.

Really this should mirror the usage of skb->cb, which are just 48 opaque bytes suitable for casting a struct.

2018-10-16netlink: Add answer_flags to netlink_callbackDavid Ahern
With dump filtering we need a way to ensure the NLM_F_DUMP_FILTERED flag is set on a message back to the user if the data returned is influenced by some input attributes. Normally this can be done as messages are added to the skb, but if the filter results in no data being returned, the user could be confused as to why. This patch adds answer_flags to the netlink_callback allowing dump handlers to set the NLM_F_DUMP_FILTERED at a minimum in the NLMSG_DONE message ensuring the flag gets back to the user. The netlink_callback space is initialized to 0 via a memset in __netlink_dump_start, so init of the new answer_flags is covered. Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2018-10-08netlink: Add new socket option to enable strict checking on dumpsDavid Ahern
Add a new socket option, NETLINK_DUMP_STRICT_CHK, that userspace can use via setsockopt to request strict checking of headers and attributes on dump requests. To get dump features such as kernel side filtering based on data in the header or attributes appended to the dump request, userspace must call setsockopt() for NETLINK_DUMP_STRICT_CHK and a non-zero value. Since the netlink sock and its flags are private to the af_netlink code, the strict checking flag is passed to dump handlers via a flag in the netlink_callback struct. For old userspace on new kernel there is no impact as all of the data checks in later patches are wrapped in a check on the new strict flag. For new userspace on old kernel, the setsockopt will fail and even if new userspace sets data in the headers and appended attributes the kernel will silently ignore it. Moving forward when the setsockopt succeeds, the new userspace on old kernel means the dump request can pass an attribute the kernel does not understand. The dump will then fail as the older kernel does not understand it. New userspace on new kernel setting the socket option gets the benefit of the improved data dump. Kernel side the NETLINK_DUMP_STRICT_CHK uapi is converted to a generic NETLINK_F_STRICT_CHK flag which can potentially be leveraged for tighter checking on the NEW, DEL, and SET commands.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman
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 <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

2017-05-03xdp: use common helper for netlink extended ack reportingDaniel Borkmann
Small follow-up to d74a32acd59a ("xdp: use netlink extended ACK reporting") in order to let drivers all use the same NL_SET_ERR_MSG_MOD() helper macro for reporting. This also ensures that we consistently add the driver's prefix for dumping the report in user space to indicate that the error message is driver specific and not coming from core code. Furthermore, NL_SET_ERR_MSG_MOD() now reuses NL_SET_ERR_MSG() and thus makes all macros check the pointer as suggested.

2017-05-01netlink: add NULL-friendly helper for setting extended ACK messageJakub Kicinski
As we propagate extended ack reporting throughout various paths in the kernel it may be that the same function is called with the extended ack parameter passed as NULL. One place where that happens is in drivers which have a centralized reconfiguration function called both from ndos and from ethtool_ops. Add a new helper for setting the error message in such conditions. Existing helper is left as is to encourage propagating the ext act fully wherever possible. It also makes it clear in the code which messages may be lost due to ext ack being NULL.

2017-04-13netlink: allow sending extended ACK with cookie on successJohannes Berg
Now that we have extended error reporting and a new message format for netlink ACK messages, also extend this to be able to return arbitrary cookie data on success. This will allow, for example, nl80211 to not send an extra message for cookies identifying newly created objects, but return those directly in the ACK message. The cookie data size is currently limited to 20 bytes (since Jamal talked about using SHA1 for identifiers.) Thanks to Jamal Hadi Salim for bringing up this idea during the discussions.

2015-09-09netlink, mmap: fix edge-case leakages in nf queue zero-copyDaniel Borkmann
When netlink mmap on receive side is the consumer of nf queue data, it can happen that in some edge cases, we write skb shared info into the user space mmap buffer: Assume a possible rx ring frame size of only 4096, and the network skb, which is being zero-copied into the netlink skb, contains page frags with an overall skb->len larger than the linear part of the netlink skb. skb_zerocopy(), which is generic and thus not aware of the fact that shared info cannot be accessed for such skbs then tries to write and fill frags, thus leaking kernel data/pointers and in some corner cases possibly writing out of bounds of the mmap area (when filling the last slot in the ring buffer this way). I.e. the ring buffer slot is then of status NL_MMAP_STATUS_VALID, has an advertised length larger than 4096, where the linear part is visible at the slot beginning, and the leaked sizeof(struct skb_shared_info) has been written to the beginning of the next slot (also corrupting the struct nl_mmap_hdr slot header incl. status etc), since skb->end points to skb->data + ring->frame_size - NL_MMAP_HDRLEN. The fix adds and lets __netlink_alloc_skb() take the actual needed linear room for the network skb + meta data into account. It's completely irrelevant for non-mmaped netlink sockets, but in case mmap sockets are used, it can be decided whether the available skb_tailroom() is really large enough for the buffer, or whether it needs to internally fallback to a normal alloc_skb(). >From nf queue side, the information whether the destination port is an mmap RX ring is not really available without extra port-to-socket lookup, thus it can only be determined in lower layers i.e. when __netlink_alloc_skb() is called that checks internally for this. I chose to add the extra ldiff parameter as mmap will then still work: We have data_len and hlen in nfqnl_build_packet_message(), data_len is the full length (capped at queue->copy_range) for skb_zerocopy() and hlen some possible part of data_len that needs to be copied; the rem_len variable indicates the needed remaining linear mmap space. The only other workaround in nf queue internally would be after allocation time by f.e. cap'ing the data_len to the skb_tailroom() iff we deal with an mmap skb, but that would 1) expose the fact that we use a mmap skb to upper layers, and 2) trim the skb where we otherwise could just have moved the full skb into the normal receive queue. After the patch, in my test case the ring slot doesn't fit and therefore shows NL_MMAP_STATUS_COPY, where a full skb carries all the data and thus needs to be picked up via recv().

2015-05-09netlink: allow to listen "all" netnsNicolas Dichtel
More accurately, listen all netns that have a nsid assigned into the netns where the netlink socket is opened. For this purpose, a netlink socket option is added: NETLINK_LISTEN_ALL_NSID. When this option is set on a netlink socket, this socket will receive netlink notifications from all netns that have a nsid assigned into the netns where the socket has been opened. The nsid is sent to userland via an anscillary data. With this patch, a daemon needs only one socket to listen many netns. This is useful when the number of netns is high. Because 0 is a valid value for a nsid, the field nsid_is_set indicates if the field nsid is valid or not. skb->cb is initialized to 0 on skb allocation, thus we are sure that we will never send a nsid 0 by error to the userland.

2014-12-27netlink/genetlink: pass network namespace to bind/unbindJohannes Berg
Netlink families can exist in multiple namespaces, and for the most part multicast subscriptions are per network namespace. Thus it only makes sense to have bind/unbind notifications per network namespace. To achieve this, pass the network namespace of a given client socket to the bind/unbind functions. Also do this in generic netlink, and there also make sure that any bind for multicast groups that only exist in init_net is rejected. This isn't really a problem if it is accepted since a client in a different namespace will never receive any notifications from such a group, but it can confuse the family if not rejected (it's also possible to silently (without telling the family) accept it, but it would also have to be ignored on unbind so families that take any kind of action on bind/unbind won't do unnecessary work for invalid clients like that.

2014-06-02netlink: Only check file credentials for implicit destinationsEric W. Biederman
It was possible to get a setuid root or setcap executable to write to it's stdout or stderr (which has been set made a netlink socket) and inadvertently reconfigure the networking stack. To prevent this we check that both the creator of the socket and the currentl applications has permission to reconfigure the network stack. Unfortunately this breaks Zebra which always uses sendto/sendmsg and creates it's socket without any privileges. To keep Zebra working don't bother checking if the creator of the socket has privilege when a destination address is specified. Instead rely exclusively on the privileges of the sender of the socket. Note from Andy: This is exactly Eric's code except for some comment clarifications and formatting fixes. Neither I nor, I think, anyone else is thrilled with this approach, but I'm hesitant to wait on a better fix since 3.15 is almost here. Note to stable maintainers: This is a mess. An earlier series of patches in 3.15 fix a rather serious security issue (CVE-2014-0181), but they did so in a way that breaks Zebra. The offending series includes: commit aa4cf9452f469f16cea8c96283b641b4576d4a7b Author: Eric W.
