9c5d03d362 genetlink: start to validate reserved header bytes
We had historically not checked that genlmsghdr.reserved
is 0 on input which prevents us from using those precious
bytes in the future.

One use case would be to extend the cmd field, which is
currently just 8 bits wide and 256 is not a lot of commands
for some core families.

To make sure that new families do the right thing by default
put the onus of opting out of validation on existing families.

b1cb8a71f1 batman-adv: Fix hang up with small MTU hard-interface
The system hangs up when batman-adv soft-interface is created on
hard-interface with small MTU.  For example, the following commands
create batman-adv soft-interface on dummy interface with zero MTU:

  # ip link add name dummy0 type dummy
  # ip link set mtu 0 dev dummy0
  # ip link set up dev dummy0
  # ip link add name bat0 type batadv
  # ip link set dev dummy0 master bat0

These commands cause the system hang up with the following messages:

  [   90.578925][ T6689] batman_adv: bat0: Adding interface: dummy0
  [   90.580884][ T6689] batman_adv: bat0: The MTU of interface dummy0 is too small (0) to handle the transport of batman-adv packets. Packets going over this interface will be fragmented on layer2 which could impact the performance. Setting the MTU to 1560 would solve the problem.
  [   90.586264][ T6689] batman_adv: bat0: Interface activated: dummy0
  [   90.590061][ T6689] batman_adv: bat0: Forced to purge local tt entries to fit new maximum fragment MTU (-320)
  [   90.595517][ T6689] batman_adv: bat0: Forced to purge local tt entries to fit new maximum fragment MTU (-320)
  [   90.598499][ T6689] batman_adv: bat0: Forced to purge local tt entries to fit new maximum fragment MTU (-320)

This patch fixes this issue by returning error when enabling
hard-interface with small MTU size.

813e62a6fe batman-adv: Drop initialization of flexible ethtool_link_ksettings
The commit 94dfc73e7c ("treewide: uapi: Replace zero-length arrays with
flexible-array members") changed various structures from using 0-length
arrays to flexible arrays

  net/batman-adv/bat_v_elp.c: note: in included file:
  ./include/linux/ethtool.h:148:38: warning: nested flexible array
  net/batman-adv/bat_v_elp.c:128:9: warning: using sizeof on a flexible structure

In theory, this could be worked around by using {} as initializer for the
variable on the stack. But this variable doesn't has to be initialized at
all by the caller of __ethtool_get_link_ksettings - everything will be
initialized by the callee when no error occurs.

Instead of open coding a __dynamic_array() with a fixed length (which
defeats the purpose of the dynamic array in the first place). Use the new
__vstring() helper that will use a va_list and only write enough of the
string into the ring buffer that is needed.

c304eddcec net: wrap the wireless pointers in struct net_device in an ifdef
Most protocol-specific pointers in struct net_device are under
a respective ifdef. Wireless is the notable exception. Since
there's a sizable number of custom-built kernels for datacenter
workloads which don't build wireless it seems reasonable to
ifdefy those pointers as well.

While at it move IPv4 and IPv6 pointers up, those are special
for obvious reasons.

a063f2fba3 batman-adv: Don't skb_split skbuffs with frag_list
The receiving interface might have used GRO to receive more fragments than
MAX_SKB_FRAGS fragments. In this case, these will not be stored in
skb_shinfo(skb)->frags but merged into the frag list.

batman-adv relies on the function skb_split to split packets up into
multiple smaller packets which are not larger than the MTU on the outgoing
interface. But this function cannot handle frag_list entries and is only
operating on skb_shinfo(skb)->frags. If it is still trying to split such an
skb and xmit'ing it on an interface without support for NETIF_F_FRAGLIST,
then validate_xmit_skb() will try to linearize it. But this fails due to
inconsistent information. And __pskb_pull_tail will trigger a BUG_ON after
skb_copy_bits() returns an error.

In case of entries in frag_list, just linearize the skb before operating on
it with skb_split().

6c1f41afc1 batman-adv: Don't expect inter-netns unique iflink indices
The ifindex doesn't have to be unique for multiple network namespaces on
the same machine.

  $ ip netns add test1
  $ ip -net test1 link add dummy1 type dummy
  $ ip netns add test2
  $ ip -net test2 link add dummy2 type dummy

  $ ip -net test1 link show dev dummy1
  6: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
      link/ether 96:81:55:1e:dd:85 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
  $ ip -net test2 link show dev dummy2
  6: dummy2: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
      link/ether 5a:3c:af:35:07:c3 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

But the batman-adv code to walk through the various layers of virtual
interfaces uses this assumption because dev_get_iflink handles it
internally and doesn't return the actual netns of the iflink. And
dev_get_iflink only documents the situation where ifindex == iflink for
physical devices.

But only checking for dev->netdev_ops->ndo_get_iflink is also not an option
because ipoib_get_iflink implements it even when it sometimes returns an
iflink != ifindex and sometimes iflink == ifindex. The caller must
therefore make sure itself to check both netns and iflink + ifindex for
equality. Only when they are equal, a "physical" interface was detected
which should stop the traversal. On the other hand, vxcan_get_iflink can
also return 0 in case there was currently no valid peer. In this case, it
is still necessary to stop.

There is no need to call dev_get_iflink multiple times for the same

ndo_get_iflink callbacks are dynamic (for example via RCUs like in
vxcan_get_iflink), it could easily happen that the returned values are not
stable. The pre-checks before __dev_get_by_index are then of course bogus.

The error message "Cannot find parent device" was shown for users of
macvtap (on batadv devices) whenever the macvtap was moved to a different

rtnl_link_ops->get_link_net.

The situation for which this message is printed is actually not an error
but just a warning that the optional sanity check was skipped. So demote
the message from error to warning and adjust the text to better explain

938f2e0b57 batman-adv: mcast: don't send link-local multicast to mcast routers
The addition of routable multicast TX handling introduced a
bug/regression for packets with a link-local multicast destination:
These packets would be sent to all batman-adv nodes with a multicast
router and to all batman-adv nodes with an old version without multicast
router detection.

This even disregards the batman-adv multicast fanout setting, which can
potentially lead to an unwanted, high number of unicast transmissions or
even congestion.

Fixing this by avoiding to send link-local multicast packets to nodes in
the multicast router list.

9057d6c23e batman-adv: allow netlink usage in unprivileged containers
Currently, creating a batman-adv interface in an unprivileged LXD
container and attaching secondary interfaces to it with "ip" or "batctl"
works fine. However all batctl debug and configuration commands
fail:

  root@container:~# batctl originators
  Error received: Operation not permitted
  root@container:~# batctl orig_interval
  1000
  root@container:~# batctl orig_interval 2000
  root@container:~# batctl orig_interval
  1000

To fix this change the generic netlink permissions from GENL_ADMIN_PERM
to GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM. This way a batman-adv interface is fully
maintainable as root from within a user namespace, from an unprivileged
container.

All except one batman-adv netlink setting are per interface and do not
leak information or change settings from the host system and are
therefore save to retrieve or modify as root from within an unprivileged
container.

"batctl routing_algo" / BATADV_CMD_GET_ROUTING_ALGOS is the only
exception: It provides the batman-adv kernel module wide default routing
algorithm. However it is read-only from netlink and an unprivileged
container is still not allowed to modify
/sys/module/batman_adv/parameters/routing_algo. Instead it is advised to
use the newly introduced "batctl if create routing_algo RA_NAME" /
IFLA_BATADV_ALGO_NAME to set the routing algorithm on interface
creation, which already works fine in an unprivileged container.

Pull exit cleanups from Eric Biederman:
 "While looking at some issues related to the exit path in the kernel I
  found several instances where the code is not using the existing
  abstractions properly.

  This set of changes introduces force_fatal_sig a way of sending a
  signal and not allowing it to be caught, and corrects the misuse of
  the existing abstractions that I found.

  A lot of the misuse of the existing abstractions are silly things such
  as doing something after calling a no return function, rolling BUG by
  hand, doing more work than necessary to terminate a kernel thread, or
  calling do_exit(SIGKILL) instead of calling force_sig(SIGKILL).

  In the review a deficiency in force_fatal_sig and force_sig_seccomp
  where ptrace or sigaction could prevent the delivery of the signal was
  found. I have added a change that adds SA_IMMUTABLE to change that
  makes it impossible to interrupt the delivery of those signals, and
  allows backporting to fix force_sig_seccomp

  And Arnd found an issue where a function passed to kthread_run had the
  wrong prototype, and after my cleanup was failing to build."

6f68cd6348 net: batman-adv: fix error handling
Syzbot reported ODEBUG warning in batadv_nc_mesh_free(). The problem was
in wrong error handling in batadv_mesh_init().

Before this patch batadv_mesh_init() was calling batadv_mesh_free() in case
of any batadv_*_init() calls failure. This approach may work well, when
there is some kind of indicator, which can tell which parts of batadv are
initialized; but there isn't any.

All written above lead to cleaning up uninitialized fields. Even if we hide
ODEBUG warning by initializing bat_priv->nc.work, syzbot was able to hit
GPF in batadv_nc_purge_paths(), because hash pointer in still NULL. [1]

To fix these bugs we can unwind batadv_*_init() calls one by one.
It is good approach for 2 reasons: 1) It fixes bugs on error handling
path 2) It improves the performance, since we won't call unneeded
batadv_*_free() functions.

So, this patch makes all batadv_*_init() clean up all allocated memory
before returning with an error to no call correspoing batadv_*_free()
and open-codes batadv_mesh_free() with proper order to avoid touching
uninitialized fields.

808cfdfad5 batman-adv: bcast: remove remaining skb-copy calls
We currently have two code paths for broadcast packets:

A) self-generated, via batadv_interface_tx()->
   batadv_send_bcast_packet().
B) received/forwarded, via batadv_recv_bcast_packet()->
   batadv_forw_bcast_packet().

For A), self-generated broadcast packets:

The only modifications to the skb data is the ethernet header which is
added/pushed to the skb in
batadv_send_broadcast_skb()->batadv_send_skb_packet(). However before
doing so, batadv_skb_head_push() is called which calls skb_cow_head() to
unshare the space for the to be pushed ethernet header. So for this
case, it is safe to use skb clones.

For B), received/forwarded packets:

The same applies as in A) for the to be forwarded packets. Only the
ethernet header is added. However after (queueing for) forwarding the
packet in batadv_recv_bcast_packet()->batadv_forw_bcast_packet(), a
packet is additionally decapsulated and is sent up the stack through
batadv_recv_bcast_packet()->batadv_interface_rx().

Protocols higher up the stack are already required to check if the
packet is shared and create a copy for further modifications. When the
next (protocol) layer works correctly, it cannot happen that it tries to
operate on the data behind the skb clone which is still queued up for
forwarding.

responsibility of the caller to check whether the object is NULL or not.
But it was changed to behave more like kfree. Now the callee has to handle
the NULL-case.

The batman-adv code was scanned via cocinelle for similar places. These
were changed to use the paradigm

  identifier E, T, R, C;
  identifier put;

   void put(struct T *E)

Functions which were used in other sources files were moved to the header
to allow the compiler to inline the NULL check and the kref_put call.

which shared sysfs+rtnetlink code for attaching an hard-interface to an

interface name from the ndo_add_slave callback to increase the shared code
- even when it would have been more efficient to use the provided
net_device object directly instead of searching it again (based on its
name) in batadv_hardif_enable_interface.

But this indirect handling is no longer necessary because the sysfs code
was dropped. There is now only a single code path which is using
batadv_hardif_enable_interface.

bf6b260b8a batman-adv: Drop implicit creation of batadv net_devices
The sysfs code in batman-adv was could create a new batadv interfaces on
demand when a string (interface name) was written to the
batman-adv/mesh_iface file. But the code no longer exists in the current
batman-adv codebase. The helper code to implement this behavior must be
considered as unused and can be dropped.
