From 8d650cdedaabb33e85e9b7c517c0c71fcecc1de9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Thu, 18 Jul 2019 19:28:14 -0700 Subject: tcp: fix tcp_set_congestion_control() use from bpf hook Neal reported incorrect use of ns_capable() from bpf hook. bpf_setsockopt(...TCP_CONGESTION...) -> tcp_set_congestion_control() -> ns_capable(sock_net(sk)->user_ns, CAP_NET_ADMIN) -> ns_capable_common() -> current_cred() -> rcu_dereference_protected(current->cred, 1) Accessing 'current' in bpf context makes no sense, since packets are processed from softirq context. As Neal stated : The capability check in tcp_set_congestion_control() was written assuming a system call context, and then was reused from a BPF call site. The fix is to add a new parameter to tcp_set_congestion_control(), so that the ns_capable() call is only performed under the right context.
