genetlink: fix counting regression on ctrl_dumpfamily()

2017-03-30T07:44:02+00:00

[ Upstream commit 1d2a6a5e4bf2921531071fcff8538623dce74efa ] Commit 2ae0f17df1cd ("genetlink: use idr to track families") replaced if (++n < fams_to_skip) continue; into: if (n++ < fams_to_skip) continue; This subtle change cause that on retry ctrl_dumpfamily() call we omit one family that failed to do ctrl_fill_info() on previous call, because cb->args[0] = n number counts also family that failed to do ctrl_fill_info(). Patch fixes the problem and avoid confusion in the future just decrease n counter when ctrl_fill_info() fail. User visible problem caused by this bug is failure to get access to some genetlink family i.e. nl80211. However problem is reproducible only if number of registered genetlink families is big enough to cause second call of ctrl_dumpfamily().

Replace with globally

netlink: use blocking notifier

2016-12-10T22:25:58+00:00

netlink_chain is called in ->release(), which is apparently a process context, so we don't have to use an atomic notifier here. Signed-off-by: Cong Wang Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

netlink: Do not schedule work from sk_destruct

2016-12-06T00:43:42+00:00

It is wrong to schedule a work from sk_destruct using the socket as the memory reserve because the socket will be freed immediately after the return from sk_destruct. Instead we should do the deferral prior to sk_free. This patch does just that.

Couple conflicts resolved here: 1) In the MACB driver, a bug fix to properly initialize the RX tail pointer properly overlapped with some changes to support variable sized rings. 2) In XGBE we had a "CONFIG_PM" --> "CONFIG_PM_SLEEP" fix overlapping with a reorganization of the driver to support ACPI, OF, as well as PCI variants of the chip. 3) In 'net' we had several probe error path bug fixes to the stmmac driver, meanwhile a lot of this code was cleaned up and reorganized in 'net-next'. 4) The cls_flower classifier obtained a helper function in 'net-next' called __fl_delete() and this overlapped with Daniel Borkamann's bug fix to use RCU for object destruction in 'net'. It also overlapped with Jiri's change to guard the rhashtable_remove_fast() call with a check against tc_skip_sw(). 5) In mlx4, a revert bug fix in 'net' overlapped with some unrelated changes in 'net-next'. 6) In geneve, a stale header pointer after pskb_expand_head() bug fix in 'net' overlapped with a large reorganization of the same code in 'net-next'. Since the 'net-next' code no longer had the bug in question, there was nothing to do other than to simply take the 'net-next' hunks. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

netlink: Call cb->done from a worker thread

2016-11-30T00:48:38+00:00

The cb->done interface expects to be called in process context. This was broken by the netlink RCU conversion. This patch fixes it by adding a worker struct to make the cb->done call where necessary.

genetlink: fix a memory leak on error path

2016-11-03T20:52:29+00:00

In __genl_register_family(), when genl_validate_assign_mc_groups() fails, we forget to free the memory we possibly allocate for family->attrbuf. Note, some callers call genl_unregister_family() to clean up on error path, it doesn't work because the family is inserted to the global list in the nearly last step.
