<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=8cb081746c031fb164089322e2336a0bf5b3070c'/>
<id>urn:sha1:8cb081746c031fb164089322e2336a0bf5b3070c</id>
<content type='text'>
We currently have two levels of strict validation:

 1) liberal (default)
     - undefined (type &gt;= max) &amp; NLA_UNSPEC attributes accepted
     - attribute length &gt;= expected accepted
     - garbage at end of message accepted
 2) strict (opt-in)
     - NLA_UNSPEC attributes accepted
     - attribute length &gt;= expected accepted

Split out parsing strictness into four different options:
 * TRAILING     - check that there's no trailing data after parsing
                  attributes (in message or nested)
 * MAXTYPE      - reject attrs &gt; max known type
 * UNSPEC       - reject attributes with NLA_UNSPEC policy entries
 * STRICT_ATTRS - strictly validate attribute size

The default for future things should be *everything*.
The current *_strict() is a combination of TRAILING and MAXTYPE,
and is renamed to _deprecated_strict().
The current regular parsing has none of this, and is renamed to
*_parse_deprecated().

Additionally it allows us to selectively set one of the new flags
even on old policies. Notably, the UNSPEC flag could be useful in
this case, since it can be arranged (by filling in the policy) to
not be an incompatible userspace ABI change, but would then going
forward prevent forgetting attribute entries. Similar can apply
to the POLICY flag.

We end up with the following renames:
 * nla_parse           -&gt; nla_parse_deprecated
 * nla_parse_strict    -&gt; nla_parse_deprecated_strict
 * nlmsg_parse         -&gt; nlmsg_parse_deprecated
 * nlmsg_parse_strict  -&gt; nlmsg_parse_deprecated_strict
 * nla_parse_nested    -&gt; nla_parse_nested_deprecated
 * nla_validate_nested -&gt; nla_validate_nested_deprecated

Using spatch, of course:
    @@
    expression TB, MAX, HEAD, LEN, POL, EXT;
    @@
    -nla_parse(TB, MAX, HEAD, LEN, POL, EXT)
    +nla_parse_deprecated(TB, MAX, HEAD, LEN, POL, EXT)

    @@
    -nlmsg_validate(NLH, HDRLEN, MAX, POL, EXT)
    +nlmsg_validate_deprecated(NLH, HDRLEN, MAX, POL, EXT)

For this patch, don't actually add the strict, non-renamed versions
yet so that it breaks compile if I get it wrong.

Also, while at it, make nla_validate and nla_parse go down to a
common __nla_validate_parse() function to avoid code duplication.

Ultimately, this allows us to have very strict validation for every
new caller of nla_parse()/nlmsg_parse() etc as re-introduced in the
next patch, while existing things will continue to work as is.

In effect then, this adds fully strict validation for any new command.

<title>netlink: make nla_nest_start() add NLA_F_NESTED flag</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=ae0be8de9a53cda3505865c11826d8ff0640237c'/>
<id>urn:sha1:ae0be8de9a53cda3505865c11826d8ff0640237c</id>
<content type='text'>
Even if the NLA_F_NESTED flag was introduced more than 11 years ago, most
netlink based interfaces (including recently added ones) are still not
setting it in kernel generated messages. Without the flag, message parsers
not aware of attribute semantics (e.g. wireshark dissector or libmnl's
mnl_nlmsg_fprintf()) cannot recognize nested attributes and won't display
the structure of their contents.

Unfortunately we cannot just add the flag everywhere as there may be
userspace applications which check nlattr::nla_type directly rather than
through a helper masking out the flags. Therefore the patch renames
nla_nest_start() to nla_nest_start_noflag() and introduces nla_nest_start()
as a wrapper adding NLA_F_NESTED. The calls which add NLA_F_NESTED manually
are rewritten to use nla_nest_start().

Except for changes in include/net/netlink.h, the patch was generated using
this semantic patch:

@@ expression E1, E2; @@
-nla_nest_start(E1, E2)
+nla_nest_start_noflag(E1, E2)

@@ expression E1, E2; @@
-nla_nest_start_noflag(E1, E2 | NLA_F_NESTED)
+nla_nest_start(E1, E2)

<title>tipc: add trace_events for tipc bearer</title>

The commit adds the new trace_event for TIPC bearer, L2 device event:

trace_tipc_l2_device_event()

Also, it puts the trace at the tipc_l2_device_event() function, then
the device/bearer events and related info can be traced out during
runtime when needed.

<title>tipc: enable tracepoints in tipc</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=b4b9771bcbbd5839b0f77aba55e2f85989ed6779'/>
<id>urn:sha1:b4b9771bcbbd5839b0f77aba55e2f85989ed6779</id>
<content type='text'>
As for the sake of debugging/tracing, the commit enables tracepoints in
TIPC along with some general trace_events as shown below. It also
defines some 'tipc_*_dump()' functions that allow to dump TIPC object
data whenever needed, that is, for general debug purposes, ie. not just
for the trace_events.

The following trace_events are now available:

- trace_tipc_skb_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC msg &amp; skb data,
  e.g. message type, user, droppable, skb truesize, cloned skb, etc.

- trace_tipc_list_dump(): allows to trace and dump any TIPC buffers or
  queues, e.g. TIPC link transmq, socket receive queue, etc.

- trace_tipc_sk_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC socket data, e.g.
  sk state, sk type, connection type, rmem_alloc, socket queues, etc.

- trace_tipc_link_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC link data, e.g.
  link state, silent_intv_cnt, gap, bc_gap, link queues, etc.

- trace_tipc_node_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC node data, e.g.
  node state, active links, capabilities, link entries, etc.

How to use:
Put the trace functions at any places where we want to dump TIPC data
or events.

Note:
a) The dump functions will generate raw data only, that is, to offload
the trace event's processing, it can require a tool or script to parse
the data but this should be simple.

b) The trace_tipc_*_dump() should be reserved for a failure cases only
(e.g. the retransmission failure case) or where we do not expect to
happen too often, then we can consider enabling these events by default
since they will almost not take any effects under normal conditions,
but once the rare condition or failure occurs, we get the dumped data
fully for post-analysis.

For other trace purposes, we can reuse these trace classes as template
but different events.

c) A trace_event is only effective when we enable it. To enable the
TIPC trace_events, echo 1 to 'enable' files in the events/tipc/
directory in the 'debugfs' file system. Normally, they are located at:

/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/

For example:

To enable the tipc_link_dump event:

echo 1 &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/tipc_link_dump/enable

To enable all the TIPC trace_events:

echo 1 &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/enable

To collect the trace data:

cat trace

or

cat trace_pipe &gt; /trace.out &amp;

To disable all the TIPC trace_events:

echo 0 &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/enable

To clear the trace buffer:

echo &gt; trace

d) Like the other trace_events, the feature like 'filter' or 'trigger'
is also usable for the tipc trace_events.

An SKB is not on a list if skb-&gt;next is NULL.

Codify this convention into a helper function and use it
