sctp: sysctl: auth_enable: avoid using current->nsproxy

2025-04-10T12:29:35Z

commit 15649fd5415eda664ef35780c2013adeb5d9c695 upstream. As mentioned in a previous commit of this series, using the 'net' structure via 'current' is not recommended for different reasons: - Inconsistency: getting info from the reader's/writer's netns vs only from the opener's netns. - current->nsproxy can be NULL in some cases, resulting in an 'Oops' (null-ptr-deref), e.g. when the current task is exiting, as spotted by syzbot [1] using acct(2). The 'net' structure can be obtained from the table->data using container_of(). Note that table->data could also be used directly, but that would increase the size of this fix, while 'sctp.ctl_sock' still needs to be retrieved from 'net' structure.

sctp: allow users to set netns ecn flag with sysctl

2019-08-28T03:54:14Z

sysctl net.sctp.ecn_enable is added in this patch. It will allow users to change the default sctp ecn flag, net.sctp.ecn_enable. This feature was also required on this thread: http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0812.1/01858.html Signed-off-by: Xin Long Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

proc/sysctl: add shared variables for range check

2019-07-19T00:08:07Z

In the sysctl code the proc_dointvec_minmax() function is often used to validate the user supplied value between an allowed range. This function uses the extra1 and extra2 members from struct ctl_table as minimum and maximum allowed value. On sysctl handler declaration, in every source file there are some readonly variables containing just an integer which address is assigned to the extra1 and extra2 members, so the sysctl range is enforced. The special values 0, 1 and INT_MAX are very often used as range boundary, leading duplication of variables like zero=0, one=1, int_max=INT_MAX in different source files: $ git grep -E '\.extra[12].*&(zero|one|int_max)' |wc -l 248 Add a const int array containing the most commonly used values, some macros to refer more easily to the correct array member, and use them instead of creating a local one for every object file.
