2017-06-07net: Fix inconsistent teardown and release of private netdev state.David S. Miller
Network devices can allocate reasources and private memory using netdev_ops->ndo_init(). However, the release of these resources can occur in one of two different places. Either netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() or netdev->destructor(). The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it is safe to perform the freeing. netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast address lists are flushed. netdev->destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the netdev references all go away. Further complicating the situation is that netdev->destructor() almost universally does also a free_netdev(). This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice(). Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice() fails. If netdev_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops->ndo_uninit(). But it is not able to invoke netdev->destructor(). This is because netdev->destructor() will do a free_netdev() and then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same. However, this means that the resources that would normally be released by netdev->destructor() will not be. Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice() fails. Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks. Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what private things need to be freed up by netdev->destructor() and whether the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev(). netdev->priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private resources that used to be freed by netdev->destructor(), except for free_netdev(). netdev->needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice(). Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after ndo_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops->ndo_uninit() and netdev->priv_destructor(). And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke netdev->priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev(). Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2015-01-29caif: remove wrong dev_net_set() callNicolas Dichtel
src_net points to the netns where the netlink message has been received. This netns may be different from the netns where the interface is created (because the user may add IFLA_NET_NS_[PID|FD]). In this case, src_net is the link netns. It seems wrong to override the netns in the newlink() handler because if it was not already src_net, it means that the user explicitly asks to create the netdevice in another netns.

2014-01-14caif: __dev_get_by_index instead of dev_get_by_index to find interfaceYing Xue
The following call chains indicate that chnl_net_open() is under rtnl_lock protection as __dev_open() is protected by rtnl_lock. So if __dev_get_by_index() instead of dev_get_by_index() is used to find interface handler in it, this would help us avoid to change interface reference counter. __dev_open() chnl_net_open() Cc: Dmitry Tarnyagin <dmitry.tarnyagin@lockless.no> Signed-off-by: Ying Xue <ying.xue@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-08-20caif: Do not dereference NULL in chnl_recv_cb()Jesper Juhl
In net/caif/chnl_net.c::chnl_recv_cb() we call skb_header_pointer() which may return NULL, but we do not check for a NULL pointer before dereferencing it. This patch adds such a NULL check and properly free's allocated memory and return an error (-EINVAL) on failure - much better than crashing..

2011-06-21Remove redundant linux/version.h includes from net/Jesper Juhl
It was suggested by "make versioncheck" that the follwing includes of linux/version.h are redundant: /home/jj/src/linux-2.6/net/caif/caif_dev.c: 14 linux/version.h not needed. /home/jj/src/linux-2.6/net/caif/chnl_net.c: 10 linux/version.h not needed. /home/jj/src/linux-2.6/net/ipv4/gre.c: 19 linux/version.h not needed. /home/jj/src/linux-2.6/net/netfilter/ipset/ip_set_core.c: 20 linux/version.h not needed. /home/jj/src/linux-2.6/net/netfilter/xt_set.c: 16 linux/version.h not needed. and it seems that it is right. Beyond manually inspecting the source files I also did a few build tests with various configs to confirm that including the header in those files is indeed not needed.

2011-02-08net/caif: Fix dangling list pointer in freed object on error.David S. Miller
rtnl_link_ops->setup(), and the "setup" callback passed to alloc_netdev*(), cannot make state changes which need to be undone on failure. There is no cleanup mechanism available at this point. So we have to add the caif private instance to the global list once we are sure that register_netdev() has succedded in ->newlink(). Otherwise, if register_netdev() fails, the caller will invoke free_netdev() and we will have a reference to freed up memory on the chnl_net_list. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
