2017-10-26vsock: always call vsock_init_tables()Cong Wang
Although CONFIG_VSOCKETS_DIAG depends on CONFIG_VSOCKETS, vsock_init_tables() is not always called, it is called only if other modules call its caller. Therefore if we only enable CONFIG_VSOCKETS_DIAG, it would crash kernel on uninitialized vsock_bind_table. This patch fixes it by moving vsock_init_tables() to its own module_init().

2017-10-05VSOCK: use TCP state constants for sk_stateStefan Hajnoczi
There are two state fields: socket->state and sock->sk_state. The socket->state field uses SS_UNCONNECTED, SS_CONNECTED, etc while the sock->sk_state typically uses values that match TCP state constants (TCP_CLOSE, TCP_ESTABLISHED). AF_VSOCK does not follow this convention and instead uses SS_* constants for both fields. The sk_state field will be exposed to userspace through the vsock_diag interface for ss(8), netstat(8), and other programs. This patch switches sk_state to TCP state constants so that the meaning of this field is consistent with other address families. Not just AF_INET and AF_INET6 use the TCP constants, AF_UNIX and others do too. The following mapping was used to convert the code: SS_FREE -> TCP_CLOSE SS_UNCONNECTED -> TCP_CLOSE SS_CONNECTING -> TCP_SYN_SENT SS_CONNECTED -> TCP_ESTABLISHED SS_DISCONNECTING -> TCP_CLOSING VSOCK_SS_LISTEN -> TCP_LISTEN In __vsock_create() the sk_state initialization was dropped because sock_init_data() already initializes sk_state to TCP_CLOSE.

2017-03-09net: Work around lockdep limitation in sockets that use socketsDavid Howells
Lockdep issues a circular dependency warning when AFS issues an operation through AF_RXRPC from a context in which the VFS/VM holds the mmap_sem. The theory lockdep comes up with is as follows: (1) If the pagefault handler decides it needs to read pages from AFS, it calls AFS with mmap_sem held and AFS begins an AF_RXRPC call, but creating a call requires the socket lock: mmap_sem must be taken before sk_lock-AF_RXRPC (2) afs_open_socket() opens an AF_RXRPC socket and binds it. rxrpc_bind() binds the underlying UDP socket whilst holding its socket lock. inet_bind() takes its own socket lock: sk_lock-AF_RXRPC must be taken before sk_lock-AF_INET (3) Reading from a TCP socket into a userspace buffer might cause a fault and thus cause the kernel to take the mmap_sem, but the TCP socket is locked whilst doing this: sk_lock-AF_INET must be taken before mmap_sem However, lockdep's theory is wrong in this instance because it deals only with lock classes and not individual locks. The AF_INET lock in (2) isn't really equivalent to the AF_INET lock in (3) as the former deals with a socket entirely internal to the kernel that never sees userspace. This is a limitation in the design of lockdep. Fix the general case by: (1) Double up all the locking keys used in sockets so that one set are used if the socket is created by userspace and the other set is used if the socket is created by the kernel. (2) Store the kern parameter passed to sk_alloc() in a variable in the sock struct (sk_kern_sock). This informs sock_lock_init(), sock_init_data() and sk_clone_lock() as to the lock keys to be used. Note that the child created by sk_clone_lock() inherits the parent's kern setting. (3) Add a 'kern' parameter to ->accept() that is analogous to the one passed in to ->create() that distinguishes whether kernel_accept() or sys_accept4() was the caller and can be passed to sk_alloc(). Note that a lot of accept functions merely dequeue an already allocated socket. I haven't touched these as the new socket already exists before we get the parameter. Note also that there are a couple of places where I've made the accepted socket unconditionally kernel-based: irda_accept() rds_rcp_accept_one() tcp_accept_from_sock() because they follow a sock_create_kern() and accept off of that. Whilst creating this, I noticed that lustre and ocfs don't create sockets through sock_create_kern() and thus they aren't marked as for-kernel, though they appear to be internal. I wonder if these should do that so that they use the new set of lock keys. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2016-05-05VSOCK: do not disconnect socket when peer has shutdown SEND onlyIan Campbell
The peer may be expecting a reply having sent a request and then done a shutdown(SHUT_WR), so tearing down the whole socket at this point seems wrong and breaks for me with a client which does a SHUT_WR. Looking at other socket family's stream_recvmsg callbacks doing a shutdown here does not seem to be the norm and removing it does not seem to have had any adverse effects that I can see.

This reverts commit 5988818008257ca42010d6b43a3e0e48afec9898 ("vsock: Fix blocking ops call in prepare_to_wait") The commit reverted with this patch caused us to potentially miss wakeups. Since the condition is not checked between the prepare_to_wait and the schedule(), if a wakeup happens after the condition is checked but before the sleep happens, we will miss it. ( A description of the problem can be found here: http://www.makelinux.net/ldd3/chp-6-sect-2 ). By reverting the patch, the behaviour is still incorrect (since we shouldn't sleep between the prepare_to_wait and the schedule) but at least it will not miss wakeups.

2013-11-20net: rework recvmsg handler msg_name and msg_namelen logicHannes Frederic Sowa
This patch now always passes msg->msg_namelen as 0. recvmsg handlers must set msg_namelen to the proper size <= sizeof(struct sockaddr_storage) to return msg_name to the user. This prevents numerous uninitialized memory leaks we had in the recvmsg handlers and makes it harder for new code to accidentally leak uninitialized memory. Optimize for the case recvfrom is called with NULL as address. We don't need to copy the address at all, so set it to NULL before invoking the recvmsg handler. We can do so, because all the recvmsg handlers must cope with the case a plain read() is called on them. read() also sets msg_name to NULL. Also document these changes in include/linux/net.h as suggested by David Miller. Changes since RFC: Set msg->msg_name = NULL if user specified a NULL in msg_name but had a non-null msg_namelen in verify_iovec/verify_compat_iovec. This doesn't affect sendto as it would bail out earlier while trying to copy-in the address. It also more naturally reflects the logic by the callers of verify_iovec. With this change in place I could remove " if (!uaddr || msg_sys->msg_namelen == 0) msg->msg_name = NULL ". This change does not alter the user visible error logic as we ignore msg_namelen as long as msg_name is NULL. Also remove two unnecessary curly brackets in ___sys_recvmsg and change comments to netdev style.

2013-02-10VSOCK: Introduce VM SocketsAndy King
VM Sockets allows communication between virtual machines and the hypervisor. User level applications both in a virtual machine and on the host can use the VM Sockets API, which facilitates fast and efficient communication between guest virtual machines and their host. A socket address family, designed to be compatible with UDP and TCP at the interface level, is provided. Today, VM Sockets is used by various VMware Tools components inside the guest for zero-config, network-less access to VMware host services. In addition to this, VMware's users are using VM Sockets for various applications, where network access of the virtual machine is restricted or non-existent. Examples of this are VMs communicating with device proxies for proprietary hardware running as host applications and automated testing of applications running within virtual machines. The VMware VM Sockets are similar to other socket types, like Berkeley UNIX socket interface. The VM Sockets module supports both connection-oriented stream sockets like TCP, and connectionless datagram sockets like UDP. The VM Sockets protocol family is defined as "AF_VSOCK" and the socket operations split for SOCK_DGRAM and SOCK_STREAM.
