2015-06-04ieee802154: Fix sockaddr_ieee802154 implicit padding information leak.Lennert Buytenhek1-0/+6
The AF_IEEE802154 sockaddr looks like this: struct sockaddr_ieee802154 { sa_family_t family; /* AF_IEEE802154 */ struct ieee802154_addr_sa addr; }; struct ieee802154_addr_sa { int addr_type; u16 pan_id; union { u8 hwaddr[IEEE802154_ADDR_LEN]; u16 short_addr; }; }; On most architectures there will be implicit structure padding here, in two different places: * In struct sockaddr_ieee802154, two bytes of padding between 'family' (unsigned short) and 'addr', so that 'addr' starts on a four byte boundary. * In struct ieee802154_addr_sa, two bytes at the end of the structure, to make the structure 16 bytes. When calling recvmsg(2) on a PF_IEEE802154 SOCK_DGRAM socket, the ieee802154 stack constructs a struct sockaddr_ieee802154 on the kernel stack without clearing these padding fields, and, depending on the addr_type, between four and ten bytes of uncleared kernel stack will be copied to userspace. We can't just insert two 'u16 __pad's in the right places and zero those before copying an address to userspace, as not all architectures insert this implicit padding -- from a quick test it seems that avr32, cris and m68k don't insert this padding, while every other architecture that I have cross compilers for does insert this padding. The easiest way to plug the leak is to just memset the whole struct sockaddr_ieee802154 before filling in the fields we want to fill in, and that's what this patch does.

2015-05-26ieee802154 socket: No need to check for ARPHRD_IEEE802154 in raw_bind().Lennert Buytenhek1-6/+0
ieee802154_get_dev() only returns devices that have dev->type == ARPHRD_IEEE802154, therefore, there is no need to check this again in raw_bind().

2015-05-26ieee802154 socket: Return EMSGSIZE from raw_sendmsg() if packet too big.Lennert Buytenhek1-1/+1
The proper return code for trying to send a packet that exceeds the outgoing interface's MTU is EMSGSIZE, not EINVAL, so patch ieee802154's raw_sendmsg() to do the right thing. (Its dgram_sendmsg() was already returning EMSGSIZE for this case.)

2015-05-23mac802154: remove mib lockAlexander Aring1-7/+5
This patch removes the mib lock. The new locking mechanism is to protect the mib values with the rtnl lock. Note that this isn't always necessary if we have an interface up the most mib values are readonly (e.g. address settings). With this behaviour we can remove locking in hotpath like frame parsing completely. It depends on context if we need to hold the rtnl lock or not, this makes the callbacks of ieee802154_mlme_ops unnecessary because these callbacks hols always the locks.

2015-05-11net: Pass kern from net_proto_family.create to sk_allocEric W. Biederman1-1/+1

2015-03-02net: Remove iocb argument from sendmsg and recvmsgYing Xue1-12/+9
After TIPC doesn't depend on iocb argument in its internal implementations of sendmsg() and recvmsg() hooks defined in proto structure, no any user is using iocb argument in them at all now. Then we can drop the redundant iocb argument completely from kinds of implementations of both sendmsg() and recvmsg() in the entire networking stack.
