fs: poll/select/recvmmsg: use timespec64 for timeout events

2016-05-20T02:12:14Z

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.

tcp: remove SKBTX_ACK_TSTAMP since it is redundant

2016-04-28T20:06:10Z

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.

net: introduce lockdep_is_held and update various places to use it

2016-04-07T20:44:14Z

The socket is either locked if we hold the slock spin_lock for lock_sock_fast and unlock_sock_fast or we own the lock (sk_lock.owned != 0). Check for this and at the same time improve that the current thread/cpu is really holding the lock. Signed-off-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

sock: enable timestamping using control messages

2016-04-04T19:50:30Z

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.

net: Fix use after free in the recvmmsg exit path

The syzkaller fuzzer hit the following use-after-free: Call Trace: [] __asan_report_load8_noabort+0x3e/0x40 mm/kasan/report.c:295 [] __sys_recvmmsg+0x6fa/0x7f0 net/socket.c:2261 [< inline >] SYSC_recvmmsg net/socket.c:2281 [] SyS_recvmmsg+0x16f/0x180 net/socket.c:2270 [] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x16/0x7a arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:185 And, as Dmitry rightly assessed, that is because we can drop the reference and then touch it when the underlying recvmsg calls return some packets and then hit an error, which will make recvmmsg to set sock->sk->sk_err, oops, fix it.
