Petr Machata 6d57b582fb net: dcb: Accept RTM_GETDCB messages carrying set-like DCB commands
[ Upstream commit df85bc140a4d6cbaa78d8e9c35154e1a2f0622c7 ]

In commit 826f328e2b7e ("net: dcb: Validate netlink message in DCB
handler"), Linux started rejecting RTM_GETDCB netlink messages if they
contained a set-like DCB_CMD_ command.

The reason was that privileges were only verified for RTM_SETDCB messages,
but the value that determined the action to be taken is the command, not
the message type. And validation of message type against the DCB command
was the obvious missing piece.

Unfortunately it turns out that mlnx_qos, a somewhat widely deployed tool
for configuration of DCB, accesses the DCB set-like APIs through
RTM_GETDCB.

Therefore do not bounce the discrepancy between message type and command.
Instead, in addition to validating privileges based on the actual message
type, validate them also based on the expected message type. This closes
the loophole of allowing DCB configuration on non-admin accounts, while
maintaining backward compatibility.

Petr Machata d52f5929d9 net: dcb: Validate netlink message in DCB handler
[ Upstream commit 826f328e2b7e8854dd42ea44e6519cd75018e7b1 ]

DCB uses the same handler function for both RTM_GETDCB and RTM_SETDCB
messages. dcb_doit() bounces RTM_SETDCB mesasges if the user does not have
the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability.

However, the operation to be performed is not decided from the DCB message
type, but from the DCB command. Thus DCB_CMD_*_GET commands are used for
reading DCB objects, the corresponding SET and DEL commands are used for
manipulation.

The assumption is that set-like commands will be sent via an RTM_SETDCB
message, and get-like ones via RTM_GETDCB. However, this assumption is not
enforced.

It is therefore possible to manipulate DCB objects without CAP_NET_ADMIN
capability by sending the corresponding command in an RTM_GETDCB message.
That is a bug. Fix it by validating the type of the request message against
the type used for the response.

Petr Machata 9139f13e01 net: DCB: Validate DCB_ATTR_DCB_BUFFER argument
[ Upstream commit 297e77e53eadb332d5062913447b104a772dc33b ]

The parameter passed via DCB_ATTR_DCB_BUFFER is a struct dcbnl_buffer. The
field prio2buffer is an array of IEEE_8021Q_MAX_PRIORITIES bytes, where
each value is a number of a buffer to direct that priority's traffic to.
That value is however never validated to lie within the bounds set by
DCBX_MAX_BUFFERS. The only driver that currently implements the callback is
mlx5 (maintainers CCd), and that does not do any validation either, in
particual allowing incorrect configuration if the prio2buffer value does
not fit into 4 bits.

Instead of offloading the need to validate the buffer index to drivers, do
it right there in core, and bounce the request if the value is too large.

Johannes Berg 8cb081746c netlink: make validation more configurable for future strictness
We currently have two levels of strict validation:

 1) liberal (default)
     - undefined (type >= max) & NLA_UNSPEC attributes accepted
     - attribute length >= expected accepted
     - garbage at end of message accepted
 2) strict (opt-in)
     - NLA_UNSPEC attributes accepted
     - attribute length >= 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 > 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           -> nla_parse_deprecated
 * nla_parse_strict    -> nla_parse_deprecated_strict
 * nlmsg_parse         -> nlmsg_parse_deprecated
 * nlmsg_parse_strict  -> nlmsg_parse_deprecated_strict
 * nla_parse_nested    -> nla_parse_nested_deprecated
 * nla_validate_nested -> nla_validate_nested_deprecated

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.

Michal Kubecek ae0be8de9a netlink: make nla_nest_start() add NLA_F_NESTED flag
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:

Petr Machata b67c540b8a net: dcb: Add priority-to-DSCP map getters
On ingress, a network device such as a switch assigns to packets
priority based on various criteria. Common options include interpreting
PCP and DSCP fields according to user configuration. When a packet
egresses the switch, a reverse process may rewrite PCP and/or DSCP
values according to packet priority.

The following three functions support a) obtaining a DSCP-to-priority
map or vice versa, and b) finding default-priority entries in APP
database.

The DCB subsystem supports for APP entries a very generous M:N mapping
between priorities and protocol identifiers. Understandably,
several (say) DSCP values can map to the same priority. But this
asymmetry holds the other way around as well--one priority can map to
several DSCP values. For this reason, the following functions operate in
terms of bitmaps, with ones in positions that match some APP entry.

- dcb_ieee_getapp_dscp_prio_mask_map() to compute for a given netdevice
  a map of DSCP-to-priority-mask, which gives for each DSCP value a
  bitmap of priorities related to that DSCP value by APP, along the
  lines of dcb_ieee_getapp_mask().

- dcb_ieee_getapp_prio_dscp_mask_map() similarly to compute for a given
  netdevice a map from priorities to a bitmap of DSCPs.

- dcb_ieee_getapp_default_prio_mask() which finds all default-priority
  rules for a given port in APP database, and returns a mask of
  priorities allowed by these default-priority rules.

Petr Machata 08193d1a89 net: dcb: For wild-card lookups, use priority -1, not 0
The function dcb_app_lookup walks the list of specified DCB APP entries,
looking for one that matches a given criteria: ifindex, selector,
protocol ID and optionally also priority. The "don't care" value for
priority is set to 0, because that priority has not been allowed under
CEE regime, which predates the IEEE standardization.

Under IEEE, 0 is a valid priority number. But because dcb_app_lookup
considers zero a wild card, attempts to add an APP entry with priority 0
fail when other entries exist for a given ifindex / selector / PID
triplet.

Fix by changing the wild-card value to -1.

Kees Cook 6da2ec5605 treewide: kmalloc() -> kmalloc_array()
The kmalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kmalloc_array(). This
patch replaces cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b, gfp)

with:
        kmalloc_array(a * b, gfp)

as well as handling cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b * c, gfp)

with:

        kmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)

as it's slightly less ugly than:

        kmalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        kmalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The tools/ directory was manually excluded, since it has its own
implementation of kmalloc().

The Coccinelle script used for this was:

Huy Nguyen e549f6f9c0 net/dcb: Add dcbnl buffer attribute
In this patch, we add dcbnl buffer attribute to allow user
change the NIC's buffer configuration such as priority
to buffer mapping and buffer size of individual buffer.

This attribute combined with pfc attribute allows advanced user to
fine tune the qos setting for specific priority queue. For example,
user can give dedicated buffer for one or more priorities or user
can give large buffer to certain priorities.

The dcb buffer configuration will be controlled by lldptool.
lldptool -T -i eth2 -V BUFFER prio 0,2,5,7,1,2,3,6
  maps priorities 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 to receive buffer 0,2,5,7,1,2,3,6
lldptool -T -i eth2 -V BUFFER size 87296,87296,0,87296,0,0,0,0
  sets receive buffer size for buffer 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 respectively

After discussion on mailing list with Jakub, Jiri, Ido and John, we agreed to
choose dcbnl over devlink interface since this feature is intended to set
port attributes which are governed by the netdev instance of that port, where
devlink API is more suitable for global ASIC configurations.

We present an use case scenario where dcbnl buffer attribute configured
by advance user helps reduce the latency of messages of different sizes.

Scenarios description:
On ConnectX-5, we run latency sensitive traffic with
small/medium message sizes ranging from 64B to 256KB and bandwidth sensitive
traffic with large messages sizes 512KB and 1MB. We group small, medium,
and large message sizes to their own pfc enables priorities as follow.
  Priorities 1 & 2 (64B, 256B and 1KB)
  Priorities 3 & 4 (4KB, 8KB, 16KB, 64KB, 128KB and 256KB)
  Priorities 5 & 6 (512KB and 1MB)

By default, ConnectX-5 maps all pfc enabled priorities to a single
lossless fixed buffer size of 50% of total available buffer space. The
other 50% is assigned to lossy buffer. Using dcbnl buffer attribute,
we create three equal size lossless buffers. Each buffer has 25% of total
available buffer space. Thus, the lossy buffer size reduces to 25%. Priority
to lossless  buffer mappings are set as follow.
  Priorities 1 & 2 on lossless buffer #1
  Priorities 3 & 4 on lossless buffer #2
  Priorities 5 & 6 on lossless buffer #3

We observe improvements in latency for small and medium message sizes
as follows. Please note that the large message sizes bandwidth performance is
reduced but the total bandwidth remains the same.
  256B message size (42 % latency reduction)
  4K message size (21% latency reduction)
  64K message size (16% latency reduction)

Paul Gortmaker 36b9ad8084 net/dcb: make dcbnl.c explicitly non-modular
The Kconfig currently controlling compilation of this code is:

net/dcb/Kconfig:config DCB
net/dcb/Kconfig:        bool "Data Center Bridging support"

...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone.

Lets remove the modular code that is essentially orphaned, so that
when reading the driver there is no doubt it is builtin-only.

Since module_init translates to device_initcall in the non-modular
case, the init ordering remains unchanged with this commit.  We can
change to one of the other priority initcalls (subsys?) at any later
date, if desired.

We also delete the MODULE_LICENSE tag etc. since all that information
is (or is now) already contained at the top of the file in the comments.

Anish Bhatt 52cff74eef dcbnl : Disable software interrupts before taking dcb_lock
Solves possible lockup issues that can be seen from firmware DCB agents calling
into the DCB app api.

DCB firmware event queues can be tied in with NAPI so that dcb events are
generated in softIRQ context. This can results in calls to dcb_*app()
functions which try to take the dcb_lock.

If the the event triggers while we also have the dcb_lock because lldpad or
some other agent happened to be issuing a  get/set command we could see a cpu
lockup.

This code was not originally written with firmware agents in mind, hence
grabbing dcb_lock from softIRQ context was not considered.

It is possible by passing a netlink socket to a more privileged
executable and then to fool that executable into writing to the socket
data that happens to be valid netlink message to do something that
privileged executable did not intend to do.

To keep this from happening replace bare capable and ns_capable calls
with netlink_capable, netlink_net_calls and netlink_ns_capable calls.
Which act the same as the previous calls except they verify that the
opener of the socket had the desired permissions as well.
