<id>urn:sha1:9417d81f4f8adfe20a12dd1fadf73a618cbd945d</id>
<content type='text'>
sk_setup_caps() is called to set sk-&gt;sk_dst_cache in pptp_connect,
so we have to dst_release(sk-&gt;sk_dst_cache) in pptp_sock_destruct,
otherwise, the dst refcnt will leak.

It can be reproduced by this syz log:

  r1 = socket$pptp(0x18, 0x1, 0x2)
  bind$pptp(r1, &amp;(0x7f0000000100)={0x18, 0x2, {0x0, @local}}, 0x1e)
  connect$pptp(r1, &amp;(0x7f0000000000)={0x18, 0x2, {0x3, @remote}}, 0x1e)

Consecutive dmesg warnings will occur:

  unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 1

v1-&gt;v2:
  - use rcu_dereference_protected() instead of rcu_dereference_check(),
    as suggested by Eric.

<title>ppp: Move PFC decompression to PPP generic layer</title>

<id>urn:sha1:7fb1b8ca8fa1ee34ffc328f17f78da68c7cc04e6</id>
<content type='text'>
Extract "Protocol" field decompression code from transport protocols to
PPP generic layer, where it actually belongs. As a consequence, this
patch fixes incorrect place of PFC decompression in L2TP driver (when
it's not PPPOX_BOUND) and also enables this decompression for other
protocols, like PPPoE.

Protocol field decompression also happens in PPP Multilink Protocol
code and in PPP compression protocols implementations (bsd, deflate,
mppe). It looks like there is no easy way to get rid of that, so it was
decided to leave it as is, but provide those cases with appropriate
comments instead.

Changes in v2:
  - Fix the order of checking skb data room and proto decompression
  - Remove "inline" keyword from ppp_decompress_proto()
  - Don't split line before function name
  - Prefix ppp_decompress_proto() function with "__"
  - Add ppp_decompress_proto() function with skb data room checks
  - Add description for introduced functions
  - Fix comments (as per review on mailing list)

<title>treewide: Use array_size() in vzalloc()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:fad953ce0b22cfd352a9a90b070c34b8791e6868</id>
<content type='text'>
The vzalloc() function has no 2-factor argument form, so multiplication
factors need to be wrapped in array_size(). This patch replaces cases of:

        vzalloc(a * b)

with:
        vzalloc(array_size(a, b))

as well as handling cases of:

        vzalloc(a * b * c)

with:

        vzalloc(array3_size(a, b, c))

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

        vzalloc(4 * 1024)

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 Coccinelle script used for this was:

<content type='text'>
Once dst has been cached in socket via sk_setup_caps(),
it is illegal to call ip_rt_put() (or dst_release()),
since sk_setup_caps() did not change dst refcount.

We can still dereference it since we hold socket lock.

<title>net: make getname() functions return length rather than use int* parameter</title>

Changes since v1:
Added changes in these files:
    drivers/infiniband/hw/usnic/usnic_transport.c
    drivers/staging/lustre/lnet/lnet/lib-socket.c
    drivers/target/iscsi/iscsi_target_login.c
    drivers/vhost/net.c
    fs/dlm/lowcomms.c
    fs/ocfs2/cluster/tcp.c
    security/tomoyo/network.c

Before:
All these functions either return a negative error indicator,
or store length of sockaddr into "int *socklen" parameter
and return zero on success.

"int *socklen" parameter is awkward. For example, if caller does not
care, it still needs to provide on-stack storage for the value
it does not need.

None of the many FOO_getname() functions of various protocols
ever used old value of *socklen. They always just overwrite it.

This change drops this parameter, and makes all these functions, on success,
return length of sockaddr. It's always &gt;= 0 and can be differentiated
from an error.

Tests in callers are changed from "if (err)" to "if (err &lt; 0)", where needed.

rpc_sockname() lost "int buflen" parameter, since its only use was
to be passed to kernel_getsockname() as &amp;buflen and subsequently
not used in any way.

Userspace API is not changed.

The PPTP set the pptp_sock_destruct as the sock's sk_destruct, it would
trigger this bug when __sk_free is invoked in atomic context, because of
the call path pptp_sock_destruct-&gt;del_chan-&gt;synchronize_rcu.

Now move the synchronize_rcu to pptp_release from del_chan. This is the
only one case which would free the sock and need the synchronize_rcu.

The following is the panic I met with kernel 3.3.8, but this issue should
exist in current kernel too according to the codes.

Variable opt in pptp_release() is set but never used, thus needs to be
removed.

It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *,
and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not.

Make these functions return void * and remove all the casts across
the tree, adding a (u8 *) cast only where the unsigned char pointer
was used directly, all done with the following spatch:

    @@
    expression SKB, LEN;
    typedef u8;
    identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum };
    @@
    - *(fn(SKB, LEN))
    + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN)

    @@
    expression E, SKB, LEN;
    identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum };
    type T;
    @@
    - E = ((T *)(fn(SKB, LEN)))
    + E = fn(SKB, LEN)

    @@
    expression SKB, LEN;
    identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum };
    @@
    - fn(SKB, LEN)[0]
    + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN)

Note that the last part there converts from push(...)[0] to the
more idiomatic *(u8 *)push(...).

1. Use struct gre_base_hdr directly in pptp_gre_header instead of
duplicated members;
2. Use existing macros like GRE_KEY, GRE_SEQ, and so on instead of
duplicated macros defined by PPTP;
3. Add new macros like GRE_IS_ACK/SEQ and so on instead of
PPTP_GRE_IS_A/S and so on;
