filter: make sure filters dont read uninitialized memory

There is a possibility malicious users can get limited information about
uninitialized stack mem array. Even if sk_run_filter() result is bound
to packet length (0 .. 65535), we could imagine this can be used by
hostile user.

Initializing mem[] array, like Dan Rosenberg suggested in his patch is
expensive since most filters dont even use this array.

Its hard to make the filter validation in sk_chk_filter(), because of
the jumps. This might be done later.

In this patch, I use a bitmap (a single long var) so that only filters
using mem[] loads/stores pay the price of added security checks.

For other filters, additional cost is a single instruction.

[ Since we access fentry->k a lot now, cache it in a local variable

mac80211: fix failure to check kmalloc return value in key_key_read

I noticed two small issues in mac80211/debugfs_key.c::key_key_read while
reading through the code. Patch below.

The key_key_read() function returns ssize_t and the value that's actually
returned is the return value of simple_read_from_buffer() which also
returns ssize_t, so let's hold the return value in a ssize_t local
variable rather than a int one.

Also, memory is allocated dynamically with kmalloc() which can fail, but
the return value of kmalloc() is not checked, so we may end up operating
on a null pointer further on. So check for a NULL return and bail out with
-ENOMEM in that case.

14 years agodccp: Refine the wait-for-ccid mechanism
Gerrit Renker [Wed, 27 Oct 2010 19:16:27 +0000 (19:16 +0000)]
dccp: Refine the wait-for-ccid mechanism

This extends the existing wait-for-ccid routine so that it may be used with
different types of CCID, addressing the following problems:

 1) The queue-drain mechanism only works with rate-based CCIDs. If CCID-2 for
    example has a full TX queue and becomes network-limited just as the
    application wants to close, then waiting for CCID-2 to become unblocked
    could lead to an indefinite  delay (i.e., application "hangs").
 2) Since each TX CCID in turn uses a feedback mechanism, there may be changes
    in its sending policy while the queue is being drained. This can lead to
    further delays during which the application will not be able to terminate.
 3) The minimum wait time for CCID-3/4 can be expected to be the queue length
    times the current inter-packet delay. For example if tx_qlen=100 and a delay
    of 15 ms is used for each packet, then the application would have to wait
    for a minimum of 1.5 seconds before being allowed to exit.
 4) There is no way for the user/application to control this behaviour. It would
    be good to use the timeout argument of dccp_close() as an upper bound. Then
    the maximum time that an application is willing to wait for its CCIDs to can
    be set via the SO_LINGER option.

These problems are addressed by giving the CCID a grace period of up to the
`timeout' value.

The wait-for-ccid function is, as before, used when the application
 (a) has read all the data in its receive buffer and
 (b) if SO_LINGER was set with a non-zero linger time, or
 (c) the socket is either in the OPEN (active close) or in the PASSIVE_CLOSEREQ
     state (client application closes after receiving CloseReq).

In addition, there is a catch-all case of __skb_queue_purge() after waiting for
the CCID. This is necessary since the write queue may still have data when
 (a) the host has been passively-closed,
 (b) abnormal termination (unread data, zero linger time),
 (c) wait-for-ccid could not finish within the given time limit.

dccp: Extend CCID packet dequeueing interface

This extends the packet dequeuing interface of dccp_write_xmit() to allow
 1. CCIDs to take care of timing when the next packet may be sent;
 2. delayed sending (as before, with an inter-packet gap up to 65.535 seconds).

The main purpose is to take CCID-2 out of its polling mode (when it is network-
limited, it tries every millisecond to send, without interruption).

The mode of operation for (2) is as follows:
 * new packet is enqueued via dccp_sendmsg() => dccp_write_xmit(),
 * ccid_hc_tx_send_packet() detects that it may not send (e.g. window full),
 * it signals this condition via `CCID_PACKET_WILL_DEQUEUE_LATER',
 * dccp_write_xmit() returns without further action;
 * after some time the wait-condition for CCID becomes true,
 * that CCID schedules the tasklet,
 * tasklet function calls ccid_hc_tx_send_packet() via dccp_write_xmit(),
 * since the wait-condition is now true, ccid_hc_tx_packet() returns "send now",
 * packet is sent, and possibly more (since dccp_write_xmit() loops).

Code reuse: the taskled function calls dccp_write_xmit(), the timer function
            reduces to a wrapper around the same code.

dccp: Return-value convention of hc_tx_send_packet()

This patch reorganises the return value convention of the CCID TX sending
function, to permit more flexible schemes, as required by subsequent patches.

Currently the convention is
 * values < 0     mean error,
 * a value == 0   means "send now", and
 * a value x > 0  means "send in x milliseconds".

The patch provides symbolic constants and a function to interpret return values.

In addition, it caps the maximum positive return value to 0xFFFF milliseconds,
corresponding to 65.535 seconds.  This is possible since in CCID-3/4 the
maximum possible inter-packet gap is fixed at t_mbi = 64 sec.
