2021-12-29hamradio: improve the incomplete fix to avoid NPDLin Ma
commit b2f37aead1b82a770c48b5d583f35ec22aabb61e upstream. The previous commit 3e0588c291d6 ("hamradio: defer ax25 kfree after unregister_netdev") reorder the kfree operations and unregister_netdev operation to prevent UAF. This commit improves the previous one by also deferring the nullify of the ax->tty pointer. Otherwise, a NULL pointer dereference bug occurs. Partial of the stack trace is shown below. BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000538 RIP: 0010:ax_xmit+0x1f9/0x400 ...

2021-12-29hamradio: defer ax25 kfree after unregister_netdevLin Ma
commit 3e0588c291d6ce225f2b891753ca41d45ba42469 upstream. There is a possible race condition (use-after-free) like below (USE) | (FREE) ax25_sendmsg | ax25_queue_xmit | dev_queue_xmit | __dev_queue_xmit | __dev_xmit_skb | sch_direct_xmit | ... xmit_one | netdev_start_xmit | tty_ldisc_kill __netdev_start_xmit | mkiss_close ax_xmit | kfree ax_encaps | | Even though there are two synchronization primitives before the kfree: 1. wait_for_completion(&ax->dead). This can prevent the race with routines from mkiss_ioctl. However, it cannot stop the routine coming from upper layer, i.e., the ax25_sendmsg. 2. netif_stop_queue(ax->dev). It seems that this line of code aims to halt the transmit queue but it fails to stop the routine that already being xmit. This patch reorder the kfree after the unregister_netdev to avoid the possible UAF as the unregister_netdev() is well synchronized and won't return if there is a running routine.

2021-06-23net: hamradio: fix memory leak in mkiss_closePavel Skripkin
[ Upstream commit 7edcc682301492380fbdd604b4516af5ae667a13 ] My local syzbot instance hit memory leak in mkiss_open()[1]. The problem was in missing free_netdev() in mkiss_close(). In mkiss_open() netdevice is allocated and then registered, but in mkiss_close() netdevice was only unregistered, but not freed.

2018-10-13change semantics of ldisc ->compat_ioctl()Al Viro
First of all, make it return int. Returning long when native method had never allowed that is ridiculous and inconvenient. More importantly, change the caller; if ldisc ->compat_ioctl() is NULL or returns -ENOIOCTLCMD, tty_compat_ioctl() will try to feed cmd and compat_ptr(arg) to ldisc's native ->ioctl(). That simplifies ->compat_ioctl() instances quite a bit - they only need to deal with ioctls that are neither generic tty ones (those would get shunted off to tty_ioctl()) nor simple compat pointer ones. Note that something like TCFLSH won't reach ->compat_ioctl(), even if ldisc ->ioctl() does handle it - it will be recognized earlier and passed to tty_ioctl() (and ultimately - ldisc ->ioctl()). For many ldiscs it means that NULL ->compat_ioctl() does the right thing. Those where it won't serve (see e.g. n_r3964.c) are also easily dealt with - we need to handle the numeric-argument ioctls (calling the native instance) and, if such would exist, the ioctls that need layout conversion, etc. All in-tree ldiscs dealt with.

2017-02-10NET: mkiss: Fix panicRalf Baechle
If a USB-to-serial adapter is unplugged, the driver re-initializes, with dev->hard_header_len and dev->addr_len set to zero, instead of the correct values. If then a packet is sent through the half-dead interface, the kernel will panic due to running out of headroom in the skb when pushing for the AX.25 headers resulting in this panic: [<c0595468>] (skb_panic) from [<c0401f70>] (skb_push+0x4c/0x50) [<c0401f70>] (skb_push) from [<bf0bdad4>] (ax25_hard_header+0x34/0xf4 [ax25]) [<bf0bdad4>] (ax25_hard_header [ax25]) from [<bf0d05d4>] (ax_header+0x38/0x40 [mkiss]) [<bf0d05d4>] (ax_header [mkiss]) from [<c041b584>] (neigh_compat_output+0x8c/0xd8) [<c041b584>] (neigh_compat_output) from [<c043e7a8>] (ip_finish_output+0x2a0/0x914) [<c043e7a8>] (ip_finish_output) from [<c043f948>] (ip_output+0xd8/0xf0) [<c043f948>] (ip_output) from [<c043f04c>] (ip_local_out_sk+0x44/0x48) This patch makes mkiss behave like the 6pack driver. 6pack does not panic.

2016-05-04drivers: replace dev->trans_start accesses with dev_trans_startFlorian Westphal
a trans_start struct member exists twice: - in struct net_device (legacy) - in struct netdev_queue Instead of open-coding dev->trans_start usage to obtain the current trans_start value, use dev_trans_start() instead. This is not exactly the same, as dev_trans_start also considers the trans_start values of the netdev queues owned by the device and provides the most recent one. For legacy devices this doesn't matter as dev_trans_start can cope with netdev trans_start values of 0 (they are ignored). This is a prerequisite to eventual removal of dev->trans_start.

2015-03-03ax25: Stop using magic neighbour cache operations.Eric W. Biederman
Before the ax25 stack calls dev_queue_xmit it always calls ax25_type_trans which sets skb->protocol to ETH_P_AX25. Which means that by looking at the protocol type it is possible to detect IP packets that have not been munged by the ax25 stack in ndo_start_xmit and call a function to munge them. Rename ax25_neigh_xmit to ax25_ip_xmit and tweak the return type and value to be appropriate for an ndo_start_xmit function. Update all of the ax25 devices to test the protocol type for ETH_P_IP and return ax25_ip_xmit as the first thing they do. This preserves the existing semantics of IP packet processing, but the timing will be a little different as the IP packets now pass through the qdisc layer before reaching the ax25 ip packet processing.

2011-06-04Revert "tty: make receive_buf() return the amout of bytes received"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit b1c43f82c5aa265442f82dba31ce985ebb7aa71c. It was broken in so many ways, and results in random odd pty issues. It re-introduced the buggy schedule_work() in flush_to_ldisc() that can cause endless work-loops (see commit a5660b41af6a: "tty: fix endless work loop when the buffer fills up"). It also used an "unsigned int" return value fo the ->receive_buf() function, but then made multiple functions return a negative error code, and didn't actually check for the error in the caller. And it didn't actually work at all. BenH bisected down odd tty behavior to it: "It looks like the patch is causing some major malfunctions of the X server for me, possibly related to PTYs. For example, cat'ing a large file in a gnome terminal hangs the kernel for -minutes- in a loop of what looks like flush_to_ldisc/workqueue code, (some ftrace data in the quoted bits further down). ... Some more data: It -looks- like what happens is that the flush_to_ldisc work queue entry constantly re-queues itself (because the PTY is full ?) and the workqueue thread will basically loop forver calling it without ever scheduling, thus starving the consumer process that could have emptied the PTY." which is pretty much exactly the problem we fixed in a5660b41af6a.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2008-07-20tty: Ldisc revampAlan Cox
Move the line disciplines towards a conventional ->ops arrangement. For the moment the actual 'tty_ldisc' struct in the tty is kept as part of the tty struct but this can then be changed if it turns out that when it all settles down we want to refcount ldiscs separately to the tty. Pull the ldisc code out of /proc and put it with our ldisc code. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2008-07-15netdev: Add netdev->addr_list_lock protection.David S. Miller
Add netif_addr_{lock,unlock}{,_bh}() helpers. Use them to protect operations that operate on or read the network device unicast and multicast address lists. Also use them in cases where the code simply wants to block calls into the driver's ->set_rx_mode() and ->set_multicast_list() methods. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
