2016-05-19fs: poll/select/recvmmsg: use timespec64 for timeout eventsDeepa Dinamani
struct timespec is not y2038 safe. Even though timespec might be sufficient to represent timeouts, use struct timespec64 here as the plan is to get rid of all timespec reference in the kernel. The patch transitions the common functions: poll_select_set_timeout() and select_estimate_accuracy() to use timespec64. And, all the syscalls that use these functions are transitioned in the same patch. The restart block parameters for poll uses monotonic time. Use timespec64 here as well to assign timeout value. This parameter in the restart block need not change because this only holds the monotonic timestamp at which timeout should occur. And, unsigned long data type should be big enough for this timestamp. The system call interfaces will be handled in a separate series. Compat interfaces need not change as timespec64 is an alias to struct timespec on a 64 bit system.

2016-04-28tcp: remove SKBTX_ACK_TSTAMP since it is redundantSoheil Hassas Yeganeh
The SKBTX_ACK_TSTAMP flag is set in skb_shinfo->tx_flags when the timestamp of the TCP acknowledgement should be reported on error queue. Since accessing skb_shinfo is likely to incur a cache-line miss at the time of receiving the ack, the txstamp_ack bit was added in tcp_skb_cb, which is set iff the SKBTX_ACK_TSTAMP flag is set for an skb. This makes SKBTX_ACK_TSTAMP flag redundant. Remove the SKBTX_ACK_TSTAMP and instead use the txstamp_ack bit everywhere. Note that this frees one bit in shinfo->tx_flags.

2016-04-04sock: enable timestamping using control messagesSoheil Hassas Yeganeh
Currently, SOL_TIMESTAMPING can only be enabled using setsockopt. This is very costly when users want to sample writes to gather tx timestamps. Add support for enabling SO_TIMESTAMPING via control messages by using tsflags added in `struct sockcm_cookie` (added in the previous patches in this series) to set the tx_flags of the last skb created in a sendmsg. With this patch, the timestamp recording bits in tx_flags of the skbuff is overridden if SO_TIMESTAMPING is passed in a cmsg. Please note that this is only effective for overriding the recording timestamps flags. Users should enable timestamp reporting (e.g., SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE | SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID) using socket options and then should ask for SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_* using control messages per sendmsg to sample timestamps for each write.

Mark those kmem allocations that are known to be easily triggered from userspace as __GFP_ACCOUNT/SLAB_ACCOUNT, which makes them accounted to memcg. For the list, see below: - threadinfo - task_struct - task_delay_info - pid - cred - mm_struct - vm_area_struct and vm_region (nommu) - anon_vma and anon_vma_chain - signal_struct - sighand_struct - fs_struct - files_struct - fdtable and fdtable->full_fds_bits - dentry and external_name - inode for all filesystems. This is the most tedious part, because most filesystems overwrite the alloc_inode method. The list is far from complete, so feel free to add more objects. Nevertheless, it should be close to "account everything" approach and keep most workloads within bounds. Malevolent users will be able to breach the limit, but this was possible even with the former "account everything" approach (simply because it did not account everything in fact).

2015-12-30net, socket, socket_wq: fix missing initialization of flagsNicolai Stange
Commit ceb5d58b2170 ("net: fix sock_wake_async() rcu protection") from the current 4.4 release cycle introduced a new flags member in struct socket_wq and moved SOCKWQ_ASYNC_NOSPACE and SOCKWQ_ASYNC_WAITDATA from struct socket's flags member into that new place. Unfortunately, the new flags field is never initialized properly, at least not for the struct socket_wq instance created in sock_alloc_inode(). One particular issue I encountered because of this is that my GNU Emacs failed to draw anything on my desktop -- i.e. what I got is a transparent window, including the title bar. Bisection lead to the commit mentioned above and further investigation by means of strace told me that Emacs is indeed speaking to my Xorg through an O_ASYNC AF_UNIX socket. This is reproducible 100% of times and the fact that properly initializing the struct socket_wq ->flags fixes the issue leads me to the conclusion that somehow SOCKWQ_ASYNC_WAITDATA got set in the uninitialized ->flags, preventing my Emacs from receiving any SIGIO's due to data becoming available and it got stuck. Make sock_alloc_inode() set the newly created struct socket_wq's ->flags member to zero.

2015-12-01net: fix sock_wake_async() rcu protectionEric Dumazet
Dmitry provided a syzkaller (http://github.com/google/syzkaller) triggering a fault in sock_wake_async() when async IO is requested. Said program stressed af_unix sockets, but the issue is generic and should be addressed in core networking stack. The problem is that by the time sock_wake_async() is called, we should not access the @flags field of 'struct socket', as the inode containing this socket might be freed without further notice, and without RCU grace period. We already maintain an RCU protected structure, "struct socket_wq" so moving SOCKWQ_ASYNC_NOSPACE & SOCKWQ_ASYNC_WAITDATA into it is the safe route. It also reduces number of cache lines needing dirtying, so might provide a performance improvement anyway. In followup patches, we might move remaining flags (SOCK_NOSPACE, SOCK_PASSCRED, SOCK_PASSSEC) to save 8 bytes and let 'struct socket' being mostly read and let it being shared between cpus.

2015-05-11tun: Utilize the normal socket network namespace refcounting.Eric W. Biederman
There is no need for tun to do the weird network namespace refcounting. The existing network namespace refcounting in tfile has almost exactly the same lifetime. So rewrite the code to use the struct sock network namespace refcounting and remove the unnecessary hand rolled network namespace refcounting and the unncesary tfile->net. This change allows the tun code to directly call sock_put bypassing sock_release and making SOCK_EXTERNALLY_ALLOCATED unnecessary. Remove the now unncessary tun_release so that if anything tries to use the sock_release code path the kernel will oops, and let us know about the bug.

However, its introduction led to the inability to export skb->mark, or any other aliased field to userspace if so desired.

2014-12-10make default ->i_fop have ->open() fail with ENXIOAl Viro
As it is, default ->i_fop has NULL ->open() (along with all other methods). The only case where it matters is reopening (via procfs symlink) a file that didn't get its ->f_op from ->i_fop - anything else will have ->i_fop assigned to something sane (default would fail on read/write/ioctl/etc.). Unfortunately, such case exists - alloc_file() users, especially anon_get_file() ones. There we have tons of opened files of very different kinds sharing the same inode. As the result, attempt to reopen those via procfs succeeds and you get a descriptor you can't do anything with. Moreover, in case of sockets we set ->i_fop that will only be used on such reopen attempts - and put a failing ->open() into it to make sure those do not succeed. It would be simpler to put such ->open() into default ->i_fop and leave it unchanged both for anon inode (as we do anyway) and for socket ones. Result: * everything going through do_dentry_open() works as it used to * sock_no_open() kludge is gone * attempts to reopen anon-inode files fail as they really ought to * ditto for aio_private_file() * ditto for perfmon - this one actually tried to imitate sock_no_open() trick, but failed to set ->i_fop, so in the current tree reopens succeed and yield completely useless descriptor. Intent clearly had been to fail with -ENXIO on such reopens; now it actually does. * everything else that used alloc_file() keeps working - it has ->i_fop set for its inodes anyway Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2014-12-09put iov_iter into msghdrAl Viro
Note that the code _using_ ->msg_iter at that point will be very unhappy with anything other than unshifted iovec-backed iov_iter. We still need to convert users to proper primitives. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
