The reason is that the skb list tipc_socket::mc_method.deferredq only
is initialized for connectionless sockets, while nothing stops arriving
multicast messages from being filtered by connection oriented sockets,
with subsequent access to the said list.

We fix this by initializing the list unconditionally at socket creation.
This eliminates the crash, while the message still is dropped further
down in tipc_sk_filter_rcv() as it should be.

<title>tipc: fix hanging clients using poll with EPOLLOUT flag</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 517d7c79bdb398 ("tipc: fix hanging poll() for stream sockets")
introduced a regression for clients using non-blocking sockets.
After the commit, we send EPOLLOUT event to the client even in
TIPC_CONNECTING state. This causes the subsequent send() to fail
with ENOTCONN, as the socket is still not in TIPC_ESTABLISHED state.

In this commit, we:
- improve the fix for hanging poll() by replacing sk_data_ready()
  with sk_state_change() to wake up all clients.
- revert the faulty updates introduced by commit 517d7c79bdb398
  ("tipc: fix hanging poll() for stream sockets").

<title>netlink: make validation more configurable for future strictness</title>
<updated>2019-04-27T21:07:21Z</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.shady.money/linux/commit/?id=8cb081746c031fb164089322e2336a0bf5b3070c'/>
<id>urn:sha1:8cb081746c031fb164089322e2336a0bf5b3070c</id>
<content type='text'>
We currently have two levels of strict validation:

 1) liberal (default)
     - undefined (type &gt;= max) &amp; NLA_UNSPEC attributes accepted
     - attribute length &gt;= expected accepted
     - garbage at end of message accepted
 2) strict (opt-in)
     - NLA_UNSPEC attributes accepted
     - attribute length &gt;= 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 &gt; 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           -&gt; nla_parse_deprecated
 * nla_parse_strict    -&gt; nla_parse_deprecated_strict
 * nlmsg_parse         -&gt; nlmsg_parse_deprecated
 * nlmsg_parse_strict  -&gt; nlmsg_parse_deprecated_strict
 * nla_parse_nested    -&gt; nla_parse_nested_deprecated
 * nla_validate_nested -&gt; nla_validate_nested_deprecated

Using spatch, of course:

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.

<title>netlink: make nla_nest_start() add NLA_F_NESTED flag</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ae0be8de9a53cda3505865c11826d8ff0640237c</id>
<content type='text'>
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; @@

When using TIPC_SOCK_RECVQ_DEPTH for getsockopt(), it returns the
number of buffers in receive socket buffer which is not so helpful
for user space applications.

This commit introduces the new option TIPC_SOCK_RECVQ_USED which
returns the current allocated bytes of the receive socket buffer.
This helps user space applications dimension its buffer usage to
avoid buffer overload issue.

<content type='text'>
In commit c55c8edafa91 ("tipc: smooth change between replicast and
broadcast") we introduced new method to eliminate the risk of message
reordering that happen in between different nodes.
Unfortunately, we forgot checking at receiving side to ignore intra node.

We fix this by checking and returning if arrived message from intra node.

skb free-ed in:
  1/ condition 1: tipc_sk_filter_rcv -&gt; tipc_sk_proto_rcv
  2/ condition 2: tipc_sk_filter_rcv -&gt; tipc_group_filter_msg
This leads to a "use-after-free" access in the next condition.

We fix this by intializing the variable at declaration, then it is safe
to check this variable to continue processing if condition matches.

<title>tipc: smooth change between replicast and broadcast</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c55c8edafa91139419ed011f7d036274ce96be0b</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, a multicast stream may start out using replicast, because
there are few destinations, and then it should ideally switch to
L2/broadcast IGMP/multicast when the number of destinations grows beyond
a certain limit. The opposite should happen when the number decreases
below the limit.

To eliminate the risk of message reordering caused by method change,
a sending socket must stick to a previously selected method until it
enters an idle period of 5 seconds. Means there is a 5 seconds pause
in the traffic from the sender socket.

If the sender never makes such a pause, the method will never change,
and transmission may become very inefficient as the cluster grows.

With this commit, we allow such a switch between replicast and
broadcast without any need for a traffic pause.

Solution is to send a dummy message with only the header, also with
the SYN bit set, via broadcast or replicast. For the data message,
the SYN bit is set and sending via replicast or broadcast (inverse
method with dummy).

Then, at receiving side any messages follow first SYN bit message
(data or dummy message), they will be held in deferred queue until
another pair (dummy or data message) arrived in other link.

<title>tipc: allow service ranges to be connect()'ed on RDM/DGRAM</title>

We move the check that prevents connecting service ranges to after
the RDM/DGRAM check, and move address sanity control to a separate
function that also validates the service range.

nla_nest_start may fail. The fix check its status and returns
-EMSGSIZE in case it fails.
