Biederman Date: Sun Nov 8 00:53:51 2009 -0800 net: Support specifying the network namespace upon device creation. There is no good reason to not support userspace specifying the network namespace during device creation, and it makes it easier to create a network device and pass it to a child network namespace with a well known name. We have to be careful to ensure that the target network namespace for the new device exists through the life of the call. To keep that logic clear I have factored out the network namespace grabbing logic into rtnl_link_get_net. In addtion we need to continue to pass the source network namespace to the rtnl_link_ops.newlink method so that we can find the base device source network namespace. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman Acked-by: Eric Dumazet Where apparently I forgot to add error handling to the path where we create a new network device in a new network namespace, and pass in an invalid pid.

rtnetlink: Fix message size calculation for link messages

2010-11-12T18:53:09Z

nlmsg_total_size() calculates the length of a netlink message including header and alignment. nla_total_size() calculates the space an individual attribute consumes which was meant to be used in this context. Also, ensure to account for the attribute header for the IFLA_INFO_XSTATS attribute as implementations of get_xstats_size() seem to assume that we do so. The addition of two message headers minus the missing attribute header resulted in a calculated message size that was larger than required. Therefore we never risked running out of skb tailroom.

net: copy_rtnl_link_stats64() simplification

net: fix 64 bit counters on 32 bit arches

2010-07-07T21:58:56Z

There is a small possibility that a reader gets incorrect values on 32 bit arches. SNMP applications could catch incorrect counters when a 32bit high part is changed by another stats consumer/provider. One way to solve this is to add a rtnl_link_stats64 param to all ndo_get_stats64() methods, and also add such a parameter to dev_get_stats(). Rule is that we are not allowed to use dev->stats64 as a temporary storage for 64bit stats, but a caller provided area (usually on stack) Old drivers (only providing get_stats() method) need no changes.

net: Enable 64-bit net device statistics on 32-bit architectures

2010-06-12T22:51:22Z

Use struct rtnl_link_stats64 as the statistics structure. On 32-bit architectures, insert 32 bits of padding after/before each field of struct net_device_stats to make its layout compatible with struct rtnl_link_stats64. Add an anonymous union in net_device; move stats into the union and add struct rtnl_link_stats64 stats64. Add net_device_ops::ndo_get_stats64, implementations of which will return a pointer to struct rtnl_link_stats64. Drivers that implement this operation must not update the structure asynchronously. Change dev_get_stats() to call ndo_get_stats64 if available, and to return a pointer to struct rtnl_link_stats64. Change callers of dev_get_stats() accordingly.

netlink: bug fix: wrong size was calculated for vfinfo list blob

2010-05-28T10:42:43Z

The wrong size was being calculated for vfinfo. In one case, it was over- calculating using nlmsg_total_size on attrs, in another case, it was under-calculating by assuming ifla_vf_* structs are packed together, but each struct is it's own attr w/ hdr (and padding).

netlink: bug fix: don't overrun skbs on vf_port dump

2010-05-28T10:42:18Z

Noticed by Patrick McHardy: was continuing to fill skb after a nla_put_failure, ignoring the size calculated by upper layer. Now, return -EMSGSIZE on any overruns, but also allow netdev to fail ndo_get_vf_port with error other than -EMSGSIZE, thus unwinding nest. Signed-off-by: Scott Feldman Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

rtnetlink: Fix error handling in do_setlink()

2010-05-24T06:11:08Z

Commit c02db8c6290bb992442fec1407643c94cc414375: Author: Chris Wright Date: Sun May 16 01:05:45 2010 -0700 Subject: rtnetlink: make SR-IOV VF interface symmetric adds broken error handling to do_setlink() in net/core/rtnetlink.c. The problem is the following chunk of code: if (tb[IFLA_VFINFO_LIST]) { struct nlattr *attr; int rem; nla_for_each_nested(attr, tb[IFLA_VFINFO_LIST], rem) { if (nla_type(attr) != IFLA_VF_INFO) ----> goto errout; err = do_setvfinfo(dev, attr); if (err < 0) goto errout; modified = 1; } } which can get to errout without setting err, resulting in the following error: net/core/rtnetlink.c: In function 'do_setlink': net/core/rtnetlink.c:904: warning: 'err' may be used uninitialized in this function Change the code to return -EINVAL in this case. Note that this might not be the appropriate error though. Signed-off-by: David Howells cc: Chris Wright cc: David S. Miller Acked-by: Chris Wright Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
