I found the following pattern that leads in to interesting findings:
grep -r "ret.*|=.*__put_user" *
grep -r "ret.*|=.*__get_user" *
grep -r "ret.*|=.*__copy" *
The __put_user() calls in compat_ioctl.c, ptrace compat, signal compat,
since those appear in compat code, we could probably expect the kernel
addresses not to be reachable in the lower 32-bit range, so I think they
might not be exploitable.
For the "__get_user" cases, I don't think those are exploitable: the worse
that can happen is that the kernel will copy kernel memory into in-kernel
buffers, and will fail immediately afterward.
The alpha csum_partial_copy_from_user() seems to be missing the
access_ok() check entirely. The fix is inspired from x86. This could
lead to information leak on alpha. I also noticed that many architectures
map csum_partial_copy_from_user() to csum_partial_copy_generic(), but I
wonder if the latter is performing the access checks on every
architectures.

tcp: fix no cwnd growth after timeout
net: netlink: filter particular protocols from analyzers
TCP receive window handling is multi staged.
A socket has a memory budget, static or dynamic, in sk_rcvbuf.
Because we do not really know how this memory budget translates to
a TCP window (payload), TCP announces a small initial window
(about 20 MSS).
When a packet is received, we increase TCP rcv_win depending
on the payload/truesize ratio of this packet. Good citizen
packets give a hint that it's reasonable to have rcv_win = sk_rcvbuf/2
This heuristic takes place in tcp_grow_window()
Problem is : We currently call tcp_grow_window() only for in-order
packets.
This means that reorders or packet losses stop proper grow of
rcv_win, and senders are unable to benefit from fast recovery,
or proper reordering level detection.
Really, a packet being stored in OFO queue is not a bad citizen.
It should be part of the game as in-order packets.
In our traces, we very often see sender is limited by linux small
receive windows, even if linux hosts use autotuning (DRS) and should
allow rcv_win to grow to ~3MB.

In commit 0f7cc9a3 "tcp: increase throughput when reordering is high",
it only allows cwnd to increase in Open state. This mistakenly disables
slow start after timeout (CA_Loss). Moreover cwnd won't grow if the
state moves from Disorder to Open later in tcp_fastretrans_alert().
Therefore the correct logic should be to allow cwnd to grow as long
as the data is received in order in Open, Loss, or even Disorder state.

In theory the linux cred in a gssproxy reply can include up to
NGROUPS_MAX data, 256K of data. In the common case we expect it to be
shorter. So do as the nfsv3 ACL code does and let the xdr code allocate
the pages as they come in, instead of allocating a lot of pages that
won't typically be used.

The reply to a gssproxy can include up to NGROUPS_MAX gid's, which will

The encoding of linux creds is a bit confusing.
Also: I think in practice it doesn't really matter whether we treat any

straightforward: uid_t/gid_t are unsigned and it simplifies the ngroups
overflow check.

We can use the normal coding infrastructure here.
Two minor behavior changes:
- we're assuming no wasted space at the end of the linux cred.
That seems to match gss-proxy's behavior, and I can't see why
it would need to do differently in the future.
- NGROUPS_MAX check added: note groups_alloc doesn't do this,
this is the caller's responsibility.

sw_flow_key alignment was declared as " __aligned(__alignof__(long))".
However, this breaks on the m68k architecture where long is 32 bit in
size but 16 bit aligned by default. This aligns to the size of a long to
ensure that we can always do comparsions in full long-sized chunks. It
also adds an additional build check to catch any reduction in alignment.

RFC 4861 says that the IP source address of the Redirect is the
same as the current first-hop router for the specified ICMP
Destination Address, so the gateway should be taken into
consideration when we find the route for redirect.
There was once a check in commit
a6279458c5 ("NDISC: Search over
all possible rules on receipt of redirect.") and the check
went away in commit b94f1c0904
("ipv6: Use icmpv6_notify() to propagate redirect, instead of
rt6_redirect()").
The bug is only "exploitable" on layer-2 because the source
address of the redirect is checked to be a valid link-local
address but it makes spoofing a lot easier in the same L2
domain nonetheless.
