Hangbin Liu 1346586a9a netlink: add a nla_nest_end_safe() helper
The nla_len field in struct nlattr is a __u16, which can only hold
values up to 65535. If a nested attribute grows beyond this limit,
nla_nest_end() silently truncates the length, producing a corrupted
netlink message with no indication of the problem.

Since nla_nest_end() is used everywhere and this issue rarely happens,
let's add a new helper to check the length.

Carolina Jubran 42401c4238 netlink: introduce type-checking attribute iteration for nlmsg
Add the nlmsg_for_each_attr_type() macro to simplify iteration over
attributes of a specific type in a Netlink message.

Convert existing users in vxlan and nfsd to use the new macro.

Jakub Kicinski a96876057b netlink: fix policy dump for int with validation callback
Recent devlink change added validation of an integer value
via NLA_POLICY_VALIDATE_FN, for sparse enums. Handle this
in policy dump. We can't extract any info out of the callback,
so report only the type.

Jakub Kicinski 3f330db306 net: reformat kdoc return statements
kernel-doc -Wall warns about missing Return: statement for non-void
functions. We have a number of kdocs in our headers which are missing
the colon, IOW they use
 * Return some value
or
 * Returns some value

Having the colon makes some sense, it should help kdoc parser avoid
false positives. So add them. This is mostly done with a sed script,
and removing the unnecessary cases (mostly the comments which aren't
kdoc).

Suren Baghdasaryan 2c321f3f70 mm: change inlined allocation helpers to account at the call site
Main goal of memory allocation profiling patchset is to provide accounting
that is cheap enough to run in production.  To achieve that we inject
counters using codetags at the allocation call sites to account every time
allocation is made.  This injection allows us to perform accounting
efficiently because injected counters are immediately available as opposed
to the alternative methods, such as using _RET_IP_, which would require
counter lookup and appropriate locking that makes accounting much more
expensive.  This method requires all allocation functions to inject
separate counters at their call sites so that their callers can be
individually accounted.  Counter injection is implemented by allocation
hooks which should wrap all allocation functions.

Inlined functions which perform allocations but do not use allocation
hooks are directly charged for the allocations they perform.  In most
cases these functions are just specialized allocation wrappers used from
multiple places to allocate objects of a specific type.  It would be more
useful to do the accounting at their call sites instead.  Instrument these
helpers to do accounting at the call site.  Simple inlined allocation
wrappers are converted directly into macros.  More complex allocators or
allocators with documentation are converted into _noprof versions and
allocation hooks are added.  This allows memory allocation profiling
mechanism to charge allocations to the callers of these functions.

rather than a drop. af_netlink code uses consume_skb() directly,
which is fine, but some may prefer the symmetry of nlmsg_new() /

Currently it is possible for netlink kernel user to pass custom
filter function to broadcast send function netlink_broadcast_filtered().
However, this is not exposed to multicast send and to generic
netlink users.

Extend the api and introduce a netlink helper nlmsg_multicast_filtered()
and a generic netlink helper genlmsg_multicast_netns_filtered()
to allow generic netlink families to specify filter function
while sending multicast messages.

Kees Cook 172db56d90 netlink: Return unsigned value for nla_len()
The return value from nla_len() is never expected to be negative, and can
never be more than struct nlattr::nla_len (a u16). Adjust the prototype
on the function. This will let GCC's value range optimization passes
know that the return can never be negative, and can never be larger than
u16. As recently discussed[1], this silences the following warning in
GCC 12+:

net/wireless/nl80211.c: In function 'nl80211_set_cqm_rssi.isra':
net/wireless/nl80211.c:12892:17: warning: 'memcpy' specified bound 18446744073709551615 exceeds maximum object size 9223372036854775807 [-Wstringop-overflow=]

      |                                        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A future change would be to clamp the subtraction to make sure it never
wraps around if nla_len is somehow less than NLA_HDRLEN, which would
have the additional benefit of being defensive in the face of nlattr
corruption or logic errors.

Jakub Kicinski ea23fbd2a8 netlink: make range pointers in policies const
struct nla_policy is usually constant itself, but unless
we make the ranges inside constant we won't be able to
make range structs const. The ranges are not modified
by the core.

Jakub Kicinski 374d345d9b netlink: add variable-length / auto integers
We currently push everyone to use padding to align 64b values
in netlink. Un-padded nla_put_u64() doesn't even exist any more.

The story behind this possibly start with this thread:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20121204.130914.1457976839967676240.davem@davemloft.net/
where DaveM was concerned about the alignment of a structure
containing 64b stats. If user space tries to access such struct
directly:

	struct some_stats *stats = nla_data(attr);
	printf("A: %llu", stats->a);

lack of alignment may become problematic for some architectures.
These days we most often put every single member in a separate
attribute, meaning that the code above would use a helper like
nla_get_u64(), which can deal with alignment internally.
Even for arches which don't have good unaligned access - access
aligned to 4B should be pretty efficient.
Kernel and well known libraries deal with unaligned input already.

Padded 64b is quite space-inefficient (64b + pad means at worst 16B
per attr vs 32b which takes 8B). It is also more typing:

    if (nla_put_u64_pad(rsp, NETDEV_A_SOMETHING_SOMETHING,
                        value, NETDEV_A_SOMETHING_PAD))

Create a new attribute type which will use 32 bits at netlink
level if value is small enough (probably most of the time?),
and (4B-aligned) 64 bits otherwise. Kernel API is just:

    if (nla_put_uint(rsp, NETDEV_A_SOMETHING_SOMETHING, value))

Calling this new type "just" sint / uint with no specific size
will hopefully also make people more comfortable with using it.
Currently telling people "don't use u8, you may need the bits,
and netlink will round up to 4B, anyway" is the #1 comment
we give to newcomers.

In terms of netlink layout it looks like this:

         0       4       8       12      16
32b:     [nlattr][ u32  ]
64b:     [  pad ][nlattr][     u64      ]
uint(32) [nlattr][ u32  ]
uint(64) [nlattr][     u64      ]

Florian Westphal 5fac9b7c16 netlink: allow be16 and be32 types in all uint policy checks
__NLA_IS_BEINT_TYPE(tp) isn't useful.  NLA_BE16/32 are identical to
NLA_U16/32, the only difference is that it tells the netlink validation
functions that byteorder conversion might be needed before comparing
the value to the policy min/max ones.

After this change all policy macros that can be used with UINT types,
such as NLA_POLICY_MASK() can also be used with NLA_BE16/32.

This will be used to validate nf_tables flag attributes which
are in bigendian byte order.

Johannes Berg 70eb3911d8 net: netlink: recommend policy range validation
For large ranges (outside of s16) the documentation currently
recommends open-coding the validation, but it's better to use
the NLA_POLICY_FULL_RANGE() or NLA_POLICY_FULL_RANGE_SIGNED()
policy validation instead; recommend that.

Florian Westphal ecaf75ffd5 netlink: introduce bigendian integer types
Jakub reported that the addition of the "network_byte_order"
member in struct nla_policy increases size of 32bit platforms.

Instead of scraping the bit from elsewhere Johannes suggested
to add explicit NLA_BE types instead, so do this here.

NLA_POLICY_MAX_BE() macro is removed again, there is no need
for it: NLA_POLICY_MAX(NLA_BE.., ..) will do the right thing.

NLA_BE64 can be added later.

Hangbin Liu 1d997f1013 rtnetlink: pass netlink message header and portid to rtnl_configure_link()
This patch pass netlink message header and portid to rtnl_configure_link()
All the functions in this call chain need to add the parameters so we can
use them in the last call rtnl_notify(), and notify the userspace about
the new link info if NLM_F_ECHO flag is set.

- rtnl_configure_link()
  - __dev_notify_flags()
    - rtmsg_ifinfo()
      - rtmsg_ifinfo_event()
        - rtmsg_ifinfo_build_skb()
        - rtmsg_ifinfo_send()
	  - rtnl_notify()

Also move __dev_notify_flags() declaration to net/core/dev.h, as Jakub
suggested.

Jakub Kicinski 7354c9024f netlink: hide validation union fields from kdoc
Mark the validation fields as private, users shouldn't set
them directly and they are too complicated to explain in
a more succinct way (there's already a long explanation
in the comment above).

The strict_start_type field is set directly and has a dedicated
comment so move that above the "private" section.
