2017-05-16smc: switch to usage of IB_PD_UNSAFE_GLOBAL_RKEYUrsula Braun5-37/+8
Currently, SMC enables remote access to physical memory when a user has successfully configured and established an SMC-connection until ten minutes after the last SMC connection is closed. Because this is considered a security risk, drivers are supposed to use IB_PD_UNSAFE_GLOBAL_RKEY in such a case. This patch changes the current SMC code to use IB_PD_UNSAFE_GLOBAL_RKEY. This improves user awareness, but does not remove the security risk itself. Signed-off-by: Ursula Braun <ubraun@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2017-04-18mm: Rename SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCUPaul E. McKenney1-1/+1
A group of Linux kernel hackers reported chasing a bug that resulted from their assumption that SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU provided an existence guarantee, that is, that no block from such a slab would be reallocated during an RCU read-side critical section. Of course, that is not the case. Instead, SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU only prevents freeing of an entire slab of blocks. However, there is a phrase for this, namely "type safety". This commit therefore renames SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU in order to avoid future instances of this sort of confusion. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2017-04-11net/smc: no socket state changes in tasklet contextUrsula Braun6-20/+41
Several state changes occur during SMC socket closing. Currently state changes triggered locally occur in process context with lock_sock() taken while state changes triggered by peer occur in tasklet context with bh_lock_sock() taken. bh_lock_sock() does not wait till a lock_sock(() task in process context is finished. This may lead to races in socket state transitions resulting in dangling SMC-sockets, or it may lead to duplicate SMC socket freeing.

2017-03-09net: Work around lockdep limitation in sockets that use socketsDavid Howells1-1/+1
Lockdep issues a circular dependency warning when AFS issues an operation through AF_RXRPC from a context in which the VFS/VM holds the mmap_sem. The theory lockdep comes up with is as follows: (1) If the pagefault handler decides it needs to read pages from AFS, it calls AFS with mmap_sem held and AFS begins an AF_RXRPC call, but creating a call requires the socket lock: mmap_sem must be taken before sk_lock-AF_RXRPC (2) afs_open_socket() opens an AF_RXRPC socket and binds it. rxrpc_bind() binds the underlying UDP socket whilst holding its socket lock. inet_bind() takes its own socket lock: sk_lock-AF_RXRPC must be taken before sk_lock-AF_INET (3) Reading from a TCP socket into a userspace buffer might cause a fault and thus cause the kernel to take the mmap_sem, but the TCP socket is locked whilst doing this: sk_lock-AF_INET must be taken before mmap_sem However, lockdep's theory is wrong in this instance because it deals only with lock classes and not individual locks. The AF_INET lock in (2) isn't really equivalent to the AF_INET lock in (3) as the former deals with a socket entirely internal to the kernel that never sees userspace. This is a limitation in the design of lockdep. Fix the general case by: (1) Double up all the locking keys used in sockets so that one set are used if the socket is created by userspace and the other set is used if the socket is created by the kernel. (2) Store the kern parameter passed to sk_alloc() in a variable in the sock struct (sk_kern_sock). This informs sock_lock_init(), sock_init_data() and sk_clone_lock() as to the lock keys to be used. Note that the child created by sk_clone_lock() inherits the parent's kern setting. (3) Add a 'kern' parameter to ->accept() that is analogous to the one passed in to ->create() that distinguishes whether kernel_accept() or sys_accept4() was the caller and can be passed to sk_alloc(). Note that a lot of accept functions merely dequeue an already allocated socket. I haven't touched these as the new socket already exists before we get the parameter. Note also that there are a couple of places where I've made the accepted socket unconditionally kernel-based: irda_accept() rds_rcp_accept_one() tcp_accept_from_sock() because they follow a sock_create_kern() and accept off of that. Whilst creating this, I noticed that lustre and ocfs don't create sockets through sock_create_kern() and thus they aren't marked as for-kernel, though they appear to be internal. I wonder if these should do that so that they use the new set of lock keys. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2017-03-03sched/headers: Move task_struct::signal and task_struct::sighand types and accessors into <linux/sched/signal.h>Ingo Molnar5-0/+10
task_struct::signal and task_struct::sighand are pointers, which would normally make it straightforward to not define those types in sched.h. That is not so, because the types are accompanied by a myriad of APIs (macros and inline functions) that dereference them. Split the types and the APIs out of sched.h and move them into a new header, <linux/sched/signal.h>. With this change sched.h does not know about 'struct signal' and 'struct sighand' anymore, trying to put accessors into sched.h as a test fails the following way: ./include/linux/sched.h: In function ‘test_signal_types’: ./include/linux/sched.h:2461:18: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type ‘struct signal_struct’ ^ This reduces the size and complexity of sched.h significantly. Update all headers and .c code that relied on getting the signal handling functionality from <linux/sched.h> to include <linux/sched/signal.h>. The list of affected files in the preparatory patch was partly generated by grepping for the APIs, and partly by doing coverage build testing, both all[yes|mod|def|no]config builds on 64-bit and 32-bit x86, and an array of cross-architecture builds. Nevertheless some (trivial) build breakage is still expected related to rare Kconfig combinations and in-flight patches to various kernel code, but most of it should be handled by this patch.

Mac addresses to be exchanged in the handshake are copied with a wrong length of 12 instead of 6 bytes.

2017-01-09smc: establish pnet table managementThomas Richter5-3/+569
Connection creation with SMC-R starts through an internal TCP-connection. The Ethernet interface for this TCP-connection is not restricted to the Ethernet interface of a RoCE device. Any existing Ethernet interface belonging to the same physical net can be used, as long as there is a defined relation between the Ethernet interface and some RoCE devices. This relation is defined with the help of an identification string called "Physical Net ID" or short "pnet ID". Information about defined pnet IDs and their related Ethernet interfaces and RoCE devices is stored in the SMC-R pnet table. A pnet table entry consists of the identifying pnet ID and the associated network and IB device. This patch adds pnet table configuration support using the generic netlink message interface referring to network and IB device by their names. Commands exist to add, delete, and display pnet table entries, and to flush or display the entire pnet table. There are cross-checks to verify whether the ethernet interfaces or infiniband devices really exist in the system. If either device is not available, the pnet ID entry is not created. Loss of network devices and IB devices is also monitored; a pnet ID entry is removed when an associated network or IB device is removed.
