2021-05-18tipc: simplify the finalize work queueXin Long
This patch is to use "struct work_struct" for the finalize work queue instead of "struct tipc_net_work", as it can get the "net" and "addr" from tipc_net's other members and there is no need to add extra net and addr in tipc_net by defining "struct tipc_net_work". Note that it's safe to get net from tn->bcl as bcl is always released after the finalize work queue is done.

2020-09-07tipc: fix a deadlock when flushing scheduled workHoang Huu Le
In the commit fdeba99b1e58 ("tipc: fix use-after-free in tipc_bcast_get_mode"), we're trying to make sure the tipc_net_finalize_work work item finished if it enqueued. But calling flush_scheduled_work() is not just affecting above work item but either any scheduled work. This has turned out to be overkill and caused to deadlock as syzbot reported: ====================================================== WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected 5.9.0-rc2-next-20200828-syzkaller #0 Not tainted ------------------------------------------------------ kworker/u4:6/349 is trying to acquire lock: ffff8880aa063d38 ((wq_completion)events){+.+.}-{0:0}, at: flush_workqueue+0xe1/0x13e0 kernel/workqueue.c:2777 but task is already holding lock: ffffffff8a879430 (pernet_ops_rwsem){++++}-{3:3}, at: cleanup_net+0x9b/0xb10 net/core/net_namespace.c:565 [...] Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(pernet_ops_rwsem); lock(&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#13); lock(pernet_ops_rwsem); lock((wq_completion)events); *** DEADLOCK *** [...] v1: To fix the original issue, we replace above calling by introducing a bit flag.

2019-12-20tipc: make legacy address flag readable over netlinkJohn Rutherford
To enable iproute2/tipc to generate backwards compatible printouts and validate command parameters for nodes using a <z.c.n> node address, it needs to be able to read the legacy address flag from the kernel. The legacy address flag records the way in which the node identity was originally specified. The legacy address flag is requested by the netlink message TIPC_NL_ADDR_LEGACY_GET. If the flag is set the attribute TIPC_NLA_NET_ADDR_LEGACY is set in the return message.

2019-11-12tipc: update mon's self addr when node addr generatedHoang Le
In commit 25b0b9c4e835 ("tipc: handle collisions of 32-bit node address hash values"), the 32-bit node address only generated after one second trial period expired. However the self's addr in struct tipc_monitor do not update according to node address generated. This lead to it is always zero as initial value. As result, sorting algorithm using this value does not work as expected, neither neighbor monitoring framework. In this commit, we add a fix to update self's addr when 32-bit node address generated.

2019-04-27netlink: make validation more configurable for future strictnessJohannes Berg
We currently have two levels of strict validation: 1) liberal (default) - undefined (type >= max) & NLA_UNSPEC attributes accepted - attribute length >= expected accepted - garbage at end of message accepted 2) strict (opt-in) - NLA_UNSPEC attributes accepted - attribute length >= expected accepted Split out parsing strictness into four different options: * TRAILING - check that there's no trailing data after parsing attributes (in message or nested) * MAXTYPE - reject attrs > max known type * UNSPEC - reject attributes with NLA_UNSPEC policy entries * STRICT_ATTRS - strictly validate attribute size The default for future things should be *everything*. The current *_strict() is a combination of TRAILING and MAXTYPE, and is renamed to _deprecated_strict(). The current regular parsing has none of this, and is renamed to *_parse_deprecated(). Additionally it allows us to selectively set one of the new flags even on old policies. Notably, the UNSPEC flag could be useful in this case, since it can be arranged (by filling in the policy) to not be an incompatible userspace ABI change, but would then going forward prevent forgetting attribute entries. Similar can apply to the POLICY flag. We end up with the following renames: * nla_parse -> nla_parse_deprecated * nla_parse_strict -> nla_parse_deprecated_strict * nlmsg_parse -> nlmsg_parse_deprecated * nlmsg_parse_strict -> nlmsg_parse_deprecated_strict * nla_parse_nested -> nla_parse_nested_deprecated * nla_validate_nested -> nla_validate_nested_deprecated Using spatch, of course: @@ expression TB, MAX, HEAD, LEN, POL, EXT; @@ -nla_parse(TB, MAX, HEAD, LEN, POL, EXT) +nla_parse_deprecated(TB, MAX, HEAD, LEN, POL, EXT) @@ expression NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT; @@ -nlmsg_parse(NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT) +nlmsg_parse_deprecated(NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT) @@ expression NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT; @@ -nlmsg_parse_strict(NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT) +nlmsg_parse_deprecated_strict(NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT) @@ expression TB, MAX, NLA, POL, EXT; @@ -nla_parse_nested(TB, MAX, NLA, POL, EXT) +nla_parse_nested_deprecated(TB, MAX, NLA, POL, EXT) @@ expression START, MAX, POL, EXT; @@ -nla_validate_nested(START, MAX, POL, EXT) +nla_validate_nested_deprecated(START, MAX, POL, EXT) @@ expression NLH, HDRLEN, MAX, POL, EXT; @@ -nlmsg_validate(NLH, HDRLEN, MAX, POL, EXT) +nlmsg_validate_deprecated(NLH, HDRLEN, MAX, POL, EXT) For this patch, don't actually add the strict, non-renamed versions yet so that it breaks compile if I get it wrong. Also, while at it, make nla_validate and nla_parse go down to a common __nla_validate_parse() function to avoid code duplication. Ultimately, this allows us to have very strict validation for every new caller of nla_parse()/nlmsg_parse() etc as re-introduced in the next patch, while existing things will continue to work as is. In effect then, this adds fully strict validation for any new command. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2019-04-27netlink: make nla_nest_start() add NLA_F_NESTED flagMichal Kubecek
Even if the NLA_F_NESTED flag was introduced more than 11 years ago, most netlink based interfaces (including recently added ones) are still not setting it in kernel generated messages. Without the flag, message parsers not aware of attribute semantics (e.g. wireshark dissector or libmnl's mnl_nlmsg_fprintf()) cannot recognize nested attributes and won't display the structure of their contents. Unfortunately we cannot just add the flag everywhere as there may be userspace applications which check nlattr::nla_type directly rather than through a helper masking out the flags. Therefore the patch renames nla_nest_start() to nla_nest_start_noflag() and introduces nla_nest_start() as a wrapper adding NLA_F_NESTED. The calls which add NLA_F_NESTED manually are rewritten to use nla_nest_start(). Except for changes in include/net/netlink.h, the patch was generated using this semantic patch: @@ expression E1, E2; @@ -nla_nest_start(E1, E2) +nla_nest_start_noflag(E1, E2) @@ expression E1, E2; @@ -nla_nest_start_noflag(E1, E2 | NLA_F_NESTED) +nla_nest_start(E1, E2) Signed-off-by: Michal Kubecek <mkubecek@suse.cz> Acked-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@mellanox.com> Acked-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

The timer should have been deleted by tipc_net_stop() when cleaning up a netns. However, tipc has been able to enable a bearer and start d->timer without the local node_addr set since Commit 52dfae5c85a4 ("tipc: obtain node identity from interface by default"), which caused the timer not to be deleted in tipc_net_stop() then. So fix it in tipc_net_stop() by changing to check local node_id instead of local node_addr, as Jon suggested. While at it, remove the calling of tipc_nametbl_withdraw() there, since tipc_nametbl_stop() will take of the nametbl's freeing after.

2018-08-07tipc: fix an interrupt unsafe locking scenarioYing Xue
Commit 9faa89d4ed9d ("tipc: make function tipc_net_finalize() thread safe") tries to make it thread safe to set node address, so it uses node_list_lock lock to serialize the whole process of setting node address in tipc_net_finalize(). But it causes the following interrupt unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- rht_deferred_worker() rhashtable_rehash_table() lock(&(&ht->lock)->rlock) tipc_nl_compat_doit() tipc_net_finalize() local_irq_disable(); lock(&(&tn->node_list_lock)->rlock); tipc_sk_reinit() rhashtable_walk_enter() lock(&(&ht->lock)->rlock); <Interrupt> tipc_disc_rcv() tipc_node_check_dest() tipc_node_create() lock(&(&tn->node_list_lock)->rlock); *** DEADLOCK *** When rhashtable_rehash_table() holds ht->lock on CPU0, it doesn't disable BH. So if an interrupt happens after the lock, it can create an inverse lock ordering between ht->lock and tn->node_list_lock. As a consequence, deadlock might happen. The reason causing the inverse lock ordering scenario above is because the initial purpose of node_list_lock is not designed to do the serialization of node address setting. As cmpxchg() can guarantee CAS (compare-and-swap) process is atomic, we use it to replace node_list_lock to ensure setting node address can be atomically finished. It turns out the potential deadlock can be avoided as well.

2018-03-31tipc: permit overlapping service ranges in name tableJon Maloy
With the new RB tree structure for service ranges it becomes possible to solve an old problem; - we can now allow overlapping service ranges in the table. When inserting a new service range to the tree, we use 'lower' as primary key, and when necessary 'upper' as secondary key. Since there may now be multiple service ranges matching an indicated 'lower' value, we must also add the 'upper' value to the functions used for removing publications, so that the correct, corresponding range item can be found. These changes guarantee that a well-formed publication/withdrawal item from a peer node never will be rejected, and make it possible to eliminate the problematic backlog functionality we currently have for handling such cases.

2018-03-23tipc: handle collisions of 32-bit node address hash valuesJon Maloy
When a 32-bit node address is generated from a 128-bit identifier, there is a risk of collisions which must be discovered and handled. We do this as follows: - We don't apply the generated address immediately to the node, but do instead initiate a 1 sec trial period to allow other cluster members to discover and handle such collisions. - During the trial period the node periodically sends out a new type of message, DSC_TRIAL_MSG, using broadcast or emulated broadcast, to all the other nodes in the cluster. - When a node is receiving such a message, it must check that the presented 32-bit identifier either is unused, or was used by the very same peer in a previous session. In both cases it accepts the request by not responding to it. - If it finds that the same node has been up before using a different address, it responds with a DSC_TRIAL_FAIL_MSG containing that address. - If it finds that the address has already been taken by some other node, it generates a new, unused address and returns it to the requester. - During the trial period the requesting node must always be prepared to accept a failure message, i.e., a message where a peer suggests a different (or equal) address to the one tried. In those cases it must apply the suggested value as trial address and restart the trial period. This algorithm ensures that in the vast majority of cases a node will have the same address before and after a reboot. If a legacy user configures the address explicitly, there will be no trial period and messages, so this protocol addition is completely backwards compatible.

2018-03-23tipc: add 128-bit node identifierJon Maloy
We add a 128-bit node identity, as an alternative to the currently used 32-bit node address. For the sake of compatibility and to minimize message header changes we retain the existing 32-bit address field. When not set explicitly by the user, this field will be filled with a hash value generated from the much longer node identity, and be used as a shorthand value for the latter. We permit either the address or the identity to be set by configuration, but not both, so when the address value is set by a legacy user the corresponding 128-bit node identity is generated based on the that value.

2018-03-23tipc: allow closest-first lookup algorithm when legacy address is configuredJon Maloy
The removal of an internal structure of the node address has an unwanted side effect. - Currently, if a user is sending an anycast message with destination domain 0, the tipc_namebl_translate() function will use the 'closest- first' algorithm to first look for a node local destination, and only when no such is found, will it resort to the cluster global 'round- robin' lookup algorithm. - Current users can get around this, and enforce unconditional use of global round-robin by indicating a destination as Z.0.0 or Z.C.0. - This option disappears when we make the node address flat, since the lookup algorithm has no way of recognizing this case. So, as long as there are node local destinations, the algorithm will always select one of those, and there is nothing the sender can do to change this. We solve this by eliminating the 'closest-first' option, which was never a good idea anyway, for non-legacy users, but only for those. To distinguish between legacy users and non-legacy users we introduce a new flag 'legacy_addr_format' in struct tipc_core, to be set when the user configures a legacy-style Z.C.N node address. Hence, when a legacy user indicates a zero lookup domain 'closest-first' is selected, and in all other cases we use 'round-robin'.

2018-03-23tipc: remove restrictions on node address valuesJon Maloy
Nominally, TIPC organizes network nodes into a three-level network hierarchy consisting of the levels 'zone', 'cluster' and 'node'. This hierarchy is reflected in the node address format, - it is sub-divided into an 8-bit zone id, and 12 bit cluster id, and a 12-bit node id. However, the 'zone' and 'cluster' levels have in reality never been fully implemented,and never will be. The result of this has been that the first 20 bits the node identity structure have been wasted, and the usable node identity range within a cluster has been limited to 12 bits. This is starting to become a problem. In the following commits, we will need to be able to connect between nodes which are using the whole 32-bit value space of the node address. We therefore remove the restrictions on which values can be assigned to node identity, -it is from now on only a 32-bit integer with no assumed internal structure. Isolation between clusters is now achieved only by setting different values for the 'network id' field used during neighbor discovery, in practice leading to the latter becoming the new cluster identity. The rules for accepting discovery requests/responses from neighboring nodes now become: - If the user is using legacy address format on both peers, reception of discovery messages is subject to the legacy lookup domain check in addition to the cluster id check. - Otherwise, the discovery request/response is always accepted, provided both peers have the same network id. This secures backwards compatibility for users who have been using zone or cluster identities as cluster separators, instead of the intended 'network id'.

Despite previous ambitions to the contrary, this is never going to change, so we take the conseqeunce of this and obsolete TIPC_ZONE_SCOPE and related macros/functions. Whenever a user is doing a bind() or a sendmsg() attempt using ZONE_SCOPE we translate this internally to CLUSTER_SCOPE, while we remain compatible with users and remote nodes still using ZONE_SCOPE. Furthermore, the non-formalized scope value 0 has always been permitted for use during lookup, with the same meaning as ZONE_SCOPE/CLUSTER_SCOPE. We now permit it even as binding scope, but for compatibility reasons we choose to not change the value of TIPC_CLUSTER_SCOPE.

When we try to add new inline functions in the code, we sometimes run into circular include dependencies. The main problem is that the file core.h, which really should be at the root of the dependency chain, instead is a leaf. I.e., core.h includes a number of header files that themselves should be allowed to include core.h. In reality this is unnecessary, because core.h does not need to know the full signature of any of the structs it refers to, only their type declaration. In this commit, we remove all dependencies from core.h towards any other tipc header file. As a consequence of this change, we can now move the function tipc_own_addr(net) from addr.c to addr.h, and make it inline. There are no functional changes in this commit.

We now introduce a function, tipc_msg_eval(), that takes the decision about whether such a message should be rejected or forwarded, but leaves it to the caller to actually perform the indicated action.

2014-04-22tipc: purge tipc_net_lock lockYing Xue
Now tipc routing hierarchy comprises the structures 'node', 'link'and 'bearer'. The whole hierarchy is protected by a big read/write lock, tipc_net_lock, to ensure that nothing is added or removed while code is accessing any of these structures. Obviously the locking policy makes node, link and bearer components closely bound together so that their relationship becomes unnecessarily complex. In the worst case, such locking policy not only has a negative influence on performance, but also it's prone to lead to deadlock occasionally. In order o decouple the complex relationship between bearer and node as well as link, the locking policy is adjusted as follows: - Bearer level RTNL lock is used on update side, and RCU is used on read side. Meanwhile, all bearer instances including broadcast bearer are saved into bearer_list array. - Node and link level All node instances are saved into two tipc_node_list and node_htable lists. The two lists are protected by node_list_lock on write side, and they are guarded with RCU lock on read side. All members in node structure including link instances are protected by node spin lock. - The relationship between bearer and node When link accesses bearer, it first needs to find the bearer with its bearer identity from the bearer_list array. When bearer accesses node, it can iterate the node_htable hash list with the node address to find the corresponding node. In the new locking policy, every component has its private locking solution and the relationship between bearer and node is very simple, that is, they can find each other with node address or bearer identity from node_htable hash list or bearer_list array. Until now above all changes have been done, so tipc_net_lock can be removed safely.
