Kuniyuki IwashimaandJakub Kicinski df30285b36 af_unix: Introduce SO_INQ.
We have an application that uses almost the same code for TCP and
AF_UNIX (SOCK_STREAM).

TCP can use TCP_INQ, but AF_UNIX doesn't have it and requires an
extra syscall, ioctl(SIOCINQ) or getsockopt(SO_MEMINFO) as an
alternative.

Let's introduce the generic version of TCP_INQ.

If SO_INQ is enabled, recvmsg() will put a cmsg of SCM_INQ that
contains the exact value of ioctl(SIOCINQ).  The cmsg is also
included when msg->msg_get_inq is non-zero to make sockets
io_uring-friendly.

Note that SOCK_CUSTOM_SOCKOPT is flagged only for SOCK_STREAM to
override setsockopt() for SOL_SOCKET.

By having the flag in struct unix_sock, instead of struct sock, we
can later add SO_INQ support for TCP and reuse tcp_sk(sk)->recvmsg_inq.

Note also that supporting custom getsockopt() for SOL_SOCKET will need
preparation for other SOCK_CUSTOM_SOCKOPT users (UDP, vsock, MPTCP).

Kuniyuki IwashimaandDavid S. Miller 77cbe1a6d8 af_unix: Introduce SO_PASSRIGHTS.
As long as recvmsg() or recvmmsg() is used with cmsg, it is not
possible to avoid receiving file descriptors via SCM_RIGHTS.

This behaviour has occasionally been flagged as problematic, as
it can be (ab)used to trigger DoS during close(), for example, by
passing a FUSE-controlled fd or a hung NFS fd.

For instance, as noted on the uAPI Group page [0], an untrusted peer
could send a file descriptor pointing to a hung NFS mount and then
close it.  Once the receiver calls recvmsg() with msg_control, the
descriptor is automatically installed, and then the responsibility
for the final close() now falls on the receiver, which may result
in blocking the process for a long time.

Regarding this, systemd calls cmsg_close_all() [1] after each
recvmsg() to close() unwanted file descriptors sent via SCM_RIGHTS.

However, this cannot work around the issue at all, because the final
fput() may still occur on the receiver's side once sendmsg() with
SCM_RIGHTS succeeds.  Also, even filtering by LSM at recvmsg() does
not work for the same reason.

Thus, we need a better way to refuse SCM_RIGHTS at sendmsg().

Let's introduce SO_PASSRIGHTS to disable SCM_RIGHTS.

Note that this option is enabled by default for backward
compatibility.

Vadim FedorenkoandJakub Kicinski 4aecca4c76 net_tstamp: add SCM_TS_OPT_ID to provide OPT_ID in control message
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID socket option flag gives a way to correlate TX
timestamps and packets sent via socket. Unfortunately, there is no way
to reliably predict socket timestamp ID value in case of error returned
by sendmsg. For UDP sockets it's impossible because of lockless
nature of UDP transmit, several threads may send packets in parallel. In
case of RAW sockets MSG_MORE option makes things complicated. More
details are in the conversation [1].
This patch adds new control message type to give user-space
software an opportunity to control the mapping between packets and
values by providing ID with each sendmsg for UDP sockets.
The documentation is also added in this patch.

Mina AlmasryandJakub Kicinski 8f0b3cc9a4 tcp: RX path for devmem TCP
In tcp_recvmsg_locked(), detect if the skb being received by the user
is a devmem skb. In this case - if the user provided the MSG_SOCK_DEVMEM
flag - pass it to tcp_recvmsg_devmem() for custom handling.

tcp_recvmsg_devmem() copies any data in the skb header to the linear
buffer, and returns a cmsg to the user indicating the number of bytes
returned in the linear buffer.

tcp_recvmsg_devmem() then loops over the unaccessible devmem skb frags,
and returns to the user a cmsg_devmem indicating the location of the
data in the dmabuf device memory. cmsg_devmem contains this information:

1. the offset into the dmabuf where the payload starts. 'frag_offset'.
2. the size of the frag. 'frag_size'.
3. an opaque token 'frag_token' to return to the kernel when the buffer
is to be released.

The pages awaiting freeing are stored in the newly added
sk->sk_user_frags, and each page passed to userspace is get_page()'d.
This reference is dropped once the userspace indicates that it is
done reading this page.  All pages are released when the socket is
destroyed.

Wei WangandDavid S. Miller 2bb2f5fb21 net: add new socket option SO_RESERVE_MEM
This socket option provides a mechanism for users to reserve a certain
amount of memory for the socket to use. When this option is set, kernel
charges the user specified amount of memory to memcg, as well as
sk_forward_alloc. This amount of memory is not reclaimable and is
available in sk_forward_alloc for this socket.
With this socket option set, the networking stack spends less cycles
doing forward alloc and reclaim, which should lead to better system
performance, with the cost of an amount of pre-allocated and
unreclaimable memory, even under memory pressure.

Note:
This socket option is only available when memory cgroup is enabled and we
require this reserved memory to be charged to the user's memcg. We hope
this could avoid mis-behaving users to abused this feature to reserve a
large amount on certain sockets and cause unfairness for others.

Pavel TikhomirovandDavid S. Miller 04190bf894 sock: allow reading and changing sk_userlocks with setsockopt
SOCK_SNDBUF_LOCK and SOCK_RCVBUF_LOCK flags disable automatic socket
buffers adjustment done by kernel (see tcp_fixup_rcvbuf() and
tcp_sndbuf_expand()). If we've just created a new socket this adjustment
is enabled on it, but if one changes the socket buffer size by
setsockopt(SO_{SND,RCV}BUF*) it becomes disabled.

CRIU needs to call setsockopt(SO_{SND,RCV}BUF*) on each socket on
restore as it first needs to increase buffer sizes for packet queues
restore and second it needs to restore back original buffer sizes. So
after CRIU restore all sockets become non-auto-adjustable, which can
decrease network performance of restored applications significantly.

CRIU need to be able to restore sockets with enabled/disabled adjustment
to the same state it was before dump, so let's add special setsockopt
for it.

Let's also export SOCK_SNDBUF_LOCK and SOCK_RCVBUF_LOCK flags to uAPI so
that using these interface one can reenable automatic socket buffer
adjustment on their sockets.

Martynas PumputisandDavid S. Miller e8b9eab992 net: retrieve netns cookie via getsocketopt
It's getting more common to run nested container environments for
testing cloud software. One of such examples is Kind [1] which runs a
Kubernetes cluster in Docker containers on a single host. Each container
acts as a Kubernetes node, and thus can run any Pod (aka container)
inside the former. This approach simplifies testing a lot, as it
eliminates complicated VM setups.

Unfortunately, such a setup breaks some functionality when cgroupv2 BPF
programs are used for load-balancing. The load-balancer BPF program
needs to detect whether a request originates from the host netns or a
container netns in order to allow some access, e.g. to a service via a
loopback IP address. Typically, the programs detect this by comparing
netns cookies with the one of the init ns via a call to
bpf_get_netns_cookie(NULL). However, in nested environments the latter
cannot be used given the Kubernetes node's netns is outside the init ns.
To fix this, we need to pass the Kubernetes node netns cookie to the
program in a different way: by extending getsockopt() with a
SO_NETNS_COOKIE option, the orchestrator which runs in the Kubernetes
node netns can retrieve the cookie and pass it to the program instead.

Thus, this is following up on Eric's commit 3d368ab87c ("net:
initialize net->net_cookie at netns setup") to allow retrieval via
SO_NETNS_COOKIE.  This is also in line in how we retrieve socket cookie
via SO_COOKIE.

Björn TöpelandDaniel Borkmann 7fd3253a7d net: Introduce preferred busy-polling
The existing busy-polling mode, enabled by the SO_BUSY_POLL socket
option or system-wide using the /proc/sys/net/core/busy_read knob, is
an opportunistic. That means that if the NAPI context is not
scheduled, it will poll it. If, after busy-polling, the budget is
exceeded the busy-polling logic will schedule the NAPI onto the
regular softirq handling.

One implication of the behavior above is that a busy/heavy loaded NAPI
context will never enter/allow for busy-polling. Some applications
prefer that most NAPI processing would be done by busy-polling.

This series adds a new socket option, SO_PREFER_BUSY_POLL, that works
in concert with the napi_defer_hard_irqs and gro_flush_timeout
knobs. The napi_defer_hard_irqs and gro_flush_timeout knobs were
introduced in commit 6f8b12d661 ("net: napi: add hard irqs deferral
feature"), and allows for a user to defer interrupts to be enabled and
instead schedule the NAPI context from a watchdog timer. When a user
enables the SO_PREFER_BUSY_POLL, again with the other knobs enabled,
and the NAPI context is being processed by a softirq, the softirq NAPI
processing will exit early to allow the busy-polling to be performed.

If the application stops performing busy-polling via a system call,
the watchdog timer defined by gro_flush_timeout will timeout, and
regular softirq handling will resume.

In summary; Heavy traffic applications that prefer busy-polling over
softirq processing should use this option.

Example usage:

  $ echo 2 | sudo tee /sys/class/net/ens785f1/napi_defer_hard_irqs
  $ echo 200000 | sudo tee /sys/class/net/ens785f1/gro_flush_timeout

Note that the timeout should be larger than the userspace processing
window, otherwise the watchdog will timeout and fall back to regular
softirq processing.

Enable the SO_BUSY_POLL/SO_PREFER_BUSY_POLL options on your socket.

The subsequent patches in the series add support for new socket
timeout options with _NEW suffix that will use y2038 safe
data structures. Although the existing struct timeval layout
is sufficiently wide to represent timeouts, because of the way
libc will interpret time_t based on user defined flag, these
new flags provide a way of having a structure that is the same
for all architectures consistently.
Rename the existing options with _OLD suffix forms so that the
right option is enabled for userspace applications according
to the architecture and time_t definition of libc.

Deepa DinamaniandDavid S. Miller 7f1bc6e95d sockopt: Rename SO_TIMESTAMP* to SO_TIMESTAMP*_OLD
SO_TIMESTAMP, SO_TIMESTAMPNS and SO_TIMESTAMPING options, the
way they are currently defined, are not y2038 safe.
Subsequent patches in the series add new y2038 safe versions
of these options which provide 64 bit timestamps on all
architectures uniformly.
Hence, rename existing options with OLD tag suffixes.

Also note that kernel will not use the untagged SO_TIMESTAMP*
and SCM_TIMESTAMP* options internally anymore.

David HerrmannandDavid S. Miller f5dd3d0c96 net: introduce SO_BINDTOIFINDEX sockopt
This introduces a new generic SOL_SOCKET-level socket option called
SO_BINDTOIFINDEX. It behaves similar to SO_BINDTODEVICE, but takes a
network interface index as argument, rather than the network interface
name.

User-space often refers to network-interfaces via their index, but has
to temporarily resolve it to a name for a call into SO_BINDTODEVICE.
This might pose problems when the network-device is renamed
asynchronously by other parts of the system. When this happens, the
SO_BINDTODEVICE might either fail, or worse, it might bind to the wrong
device.

In most cases user-space only ever operates on devices which they
either manage themselves, or otherwise have a guarantee that the device
name will not change (e.g., devices that are UP cannot be renamed).
However, particularly in libraries this guarantee is non-obvious and it
would be nice if that race-condition would simply not exist. It would
make it easier for those libraries to operate even in situations where
the device-name might change under the hood.

A real use-case that we recently hit is trying to start the network
stack early in the initrd but make it survive into the real system.
Existing distributions rename network-interfaces during the transition
from initrd into the real system. This, obviously, cannot affect
devices that are up and running (unless you also consider moving them
between network-namespaces). However, the network manager now has to
make sure its management engine for dormant devices will not run in
parallel to these renames. Particularly, when you offload operations
like DHCP into separate processes, these might setup their sockets
early, and thus have to resolve the device-name possibly running into
this race-condition.

By avoiding a call to resolve the device-name, we no longer depend on
the name and can run network setup of dormant devices in parallel to
the transition off the initrd. The SO_BINDTOIFINDEX ioctl plugs this
race.

Richard CochranandDavid S. Miller 80b14dee2b net: Add a new socket option for a future transmit time.
This patch introduces SO_TXTIME. User space enables this option in
order to pass a desired future transmit time in a CMSG when calling
sendmsg(2). The argument to this socket option is a 8-bytes long struct
provided by the uapi header net_tstamp.h defined as:

struct sock_txtime {
	clockid_t 	clockid;
	u32		flags;
};

Note that new fields were added to struct sock by filling a 2-bytes
hole found in the struct. For that reason, neither the struct size or
number of cachelines were altered.

Greg Kroah-Hartman 6f52b16c5b License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with no license
Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2.  Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:

   NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
   services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
   of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".

otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.

Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier.  The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception.  SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.  See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.
