tipc: move bc link creation back to tipc_node_create

2022-06-27T10:51:56Z

Shuang Li reported a NULL pointer dereference crash: [] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000068 [] RIP: 0010:tipc_link_is_up+0x5/0x10 [tipc] [] Call Trace: [] [] tipc_bcast_rcv+0xa2/0x190 [tipc] [] tipc_node_bc_rcv+0x8b/0x200 [tipc] [] tipc_rcv+0x3af/0x5b0 [tipc] [] tipc_udp_recv+0xc7/0x1e0 [tipc] It was caused by the 'l' passed into tipc_bcast_rcv() is NULL. When it creates a node in tipc_node_check_dest(), after inserting the new node into hashtable in tipc_node_create(), it creates the bc link. However, there is a gap between this insert and bc link creation, a bc packet may come in and get the node from the hashtable then try to dereference its bc link, which is NULL. This patch is to fix it by moving the bc link creation before inserting into the hashtable. Note that for a preliminary node becoming "real", the bc link creation should also be called before it's rehashed, as we don't create it for preliminary nodes.

tipc: fix wrong notification node addresses

2022-02-17T04:44:40Z

The previous bug fix had an unfortunate side effect that broke distribution of binding table entries between nodes. The updated tipc_sock_addr struct is also used further down in the same function, and there the old value is still the correct one.

tipc: fix wrong publisher node address in link publications

2022-02-15T05:18:18Z

When a link comes up we add its presence to the name table to make it possible for users to subscribe for link up/down events. However, after a previous call signature change the binding is wrongly published with the peer node as publishing node, instead of the own node as it should be. This has the effect that the command 'tipc name table show' will list the link binding (service type 2) with node scope and a peer node as originator, something that obviously is impossible. We correct this bug here.

tipc: make node link identity publish thread safe

2021-05-10T21:41:30Z

The using of the node address and node link identity are not thread safe, meaning that two publications may be published the same values, as result one of them will get failure because of already existing in the name table. To avoid this we have to use the node address and node link identity values from inside the node item's write lock protection.
