sctp: remove useless start_fail from sctp_ht_iter in proc

2018-08-27T22:13:17Z

After changing rhashtable_walk_start to return void, start_fail would never be set other value than 0, and the checking for start_fail is pointless, so remove it.

sctp: hold transport before accessing its asoc in sctp_transport_get_next

2018-08-27T22:13:17Z

As Marcelo noticed, in sctp_transport_get_next, it is iterating over transports but then also accessing the association directly, without checking any refcnts before that, which can cause an use-after-free Read. So fix it by holding transport before accessing the association. With that, sctp_transport_hold calls can be removed in the later places.

proc: introduce proc_create_net_single

2018-05-16T05:24:30Z

Variant of proc_create_data that directly take a seq_file show callback and deals with network namespaces in ->open and ->release. All callers of proc_create + single_open_net converted over, and single_{open,release}_net are removed entirely. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

net: Use octal not symbolic permissions

2018-03-26T16:07:48Z

Prefer the direct use of octal for permissions. Done with checkpatch -f --types=SYMBOLIC_PERMS --fix-inplace and some typing. Miscellanea: o Whitespace neatening around these conversions. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

sctp: use proc_remove_subtree()

use proc_remove_subtree() for subtree removal, both on setup failure halfway through and on teardown. No need to make simple things complex... Signed-off-by: Al Viro Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: delete /proc THIS_MODULE references

2018-01-16T20:01:33Z

/proc has been ignoring struct file_operations::owner field for 10 years. Specifically, it started with commit 786d7e1612f0b0adb6046f19b906609e4fe8b1ba ("Fix rmmod/read/write races in /proc entries"). Notice the chunk where inode->i_fop is initialized with proxy struct file_operations for regular files: - if (de->proc_fops) - inode->i_fop = de->proc_fops; + if (de->proc_fops) { + if (S_ISREG(inode->i_mode)) + inode->i_fop = &proc_reg_file_ops; + else + inode->i_fop = de->proc_fops; + } VFS stopped pinning module at this point.

rhashtable: Change rhashtable_walk_start to return void

2017-12-11T14:58:38Z

Most callers of rhashtable_walk_start don't care about a resize event which is indicated by a return value of -EAGAIN. So calls to rhashtable_walk_start are wrapped wih code to ignore -EAGAIN. Something like this is common: ret = rhashtable_walk_start(rhiter); if (ret && ret != -EAGAIN) goto out; Since zero and -EAGAIN are the only possible return values from the function this check is pointless. The condition never evaluates to true. This patch changes rhashtable_walk_start to return void. This simplifies code for the callers that ignore -EAGAIN. For the few cases where the caller cares about the resize event, particularly where the table can be walked in mulitple parts for netlink or seq file dump, the function rhashtable_walk_start_check has been added that returns -EAGAIN on a resize event.

net: convert sock.sk_wmem_alloc from atomic_t to refcount_t

2017-07-01T14:39:08Z

refcount_t type and corresponding API should be used instead of atomic_t when the variable is used as a reference counter. This allows to avoid accidental refcounter overflows that might lead to use-after-free situations.
