syzbot is hitting use-after-free bug in uinput module [1]. This is because
kobject_uevent(KOBJ_REMOVE) is called again due to commit 0f4dafc056
("Kobject: auto-cleanup on final unref") after memory allocation fault
injection made kobject_uevent(KOBJ_REMOVE) from device_del() from
input_unregister_device() fail, while uinput_destroy_device() is expecting
that kobject_uevent(KOBJ_REMOVE) is not called after device_del() from
input_unregister_device() completed.
That commit intended to catch cases where nobody even attempted to send
"remove" uevents. But there is no guarantee that an event will ultimately
be sent. We are at the point of no return as far as the rest of the kernel
is concerned; there are no repeats or do-overs.
Also, it is not clear whether some subsystem depends on that commit.
If no subsystem depends on that commit, it will be better to remove
the state_{add,remove}_uevent_sent logic. But we don't want to risk
a regression (in a patch which will be backported) by trying to remove
that logic. Therefore, as a first step, let's avoid the use-after-free bug
by making sure that kobject_uevent(KOBJ_REMOVE) won't be triggered twice.

commit 07e98962fa ("kobject: Send hotplug events in all network namespaces")
enabled sending hotplug events into all network namespaces back in 2010.
Over time the set of uevents that get sent into all network namespaces has
shrunk. We have now reached the point where hotplug events for all devices
that carry a namespace tag are filtered according to that namespace.
Specifically, they are filtered whenever the namespace tag of the kobject
does not match the namespace tag of the netlink socket.
Currently, only network devices carry namespace tags (i.e. network
namespace tags). Hence, uevents for network devices only show up in the
network namespace such devices are created in or moved to.
However, any uevent for a kobject that does not have a namespace tag
associated with it will not be filtered and we will broadcast it into all
network namespaces. This behavior stopped making sense when user namespaces
were introduced.
This patch simplifies and fixes couple of things:
- Split codepath for sending uevents by kobject namespace tags:
1. Untagged kobjects - uevent_net_broadcast_untagged():
Untagged kobjects will be broadcast into all uevent sockets recorded
in uevent_sock_list, i.e. into all network namespacs owned by the
intial user namespace.
2. Tagged kobjects - uevent_net_broadcast_tagged():
Tagged kobjects will only be broadcast into the network namespace they
were tagged with.
Handling of tagged kobjects in 2. does not cause any semantic changes.
This is just splitting out the filtering logic that was handled by
kobj_bcast_filter() before.
Handling of untagged kobjects in 1. will cause a semantic change. The
reasons why this is needed and ok have been discussed in [1]. Here is a
short summary:
- Userspace ignores uevents from network namespaces that are not owned by
the intial user namespace:
Uevents are filtered by userspace in a user namespace because the
received uid != 0. Instead the uid associated with the event will be
65534 == "nobody" because the global root uid is not mapped.
This means we can safely and without introducing regressions modify the
kernel to not send uevents into all network namespaces whose owning
user namespace is not the initial user namespace because we know that
userspace will ignore the message because of the uid anyway.
I have a) verified that is is true for every udev implementation out
there b) that this behavior has been present in all udev
implementations from the very beginning.
- Thundering herd:
Broadcasting uevents into all network namespaces introduces significant
overhead.
All processes that listen to uevents running in non-initial user
namespaces will end up responding to uevents that will be meaningless
to them. Mainly, because non-initial user namespaces cannot easily
manage devices unless they have a privileged host-process helping them
out. This means that there will be a thundering herd of activity when
there shouldn't be any.
- Removing needless overhead/Increasing performance:
Currently, the uevent socket for each network namespace is added to the
global variable uevent_sock_list. The list itself needs to be protected
by a mutex. So everytime a uevent is generated the mutex is taken on
the list. The mutex is held *from the creation of the uevent (memory
allocation, string creation etc. until all uevent sockets have been
handled*. This is aggravated by the fact that for each uevent socket
that has listeners the mc_list must be walked as well which means we're
talking O(n^2) here. Given that a standard Linux workload usually has
quite a lot of network namespaces and - in the face of containers - a
lot of user namespaces this quickly becomes a performance problem (see
"Thundering herd" above). By just recording uevent sockets of network
namespaces that are owned by the initial user namespace we
significantly increase performance in this codepath.
- Injecting uevents:
There's a valid argument that containers might be interested in
receiving device events especially if they are delegated to them by a
privileged userspace process. One prime example are SR-IOV enabled
devices that are explicitly designed to be handed of to other users
such as VMs or containers.
This use-case can now be correctly handled since
commit 692ec06d7c ("netns: send uevent messages"). This commit
introduced the ability to send uevents from userspace. As such we can
let a sufficiently privileged (CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the owning user
namespace of the network namespace of the netlink socket) userspace
process make a decision what uevents should be sent. This removes the
need to blindly broadcast uevents into all user namespaces and provides
a performant and safe solution to this problem.
- Filtering logic:
This patch filters by *owning user namespace of the network namespace a
given task resides in* and not by user namespace of the task per se.
This means if the user namespace of a given task is unshared but the
network namespace is kept and is owned by the initial user namespace a
listener that is opening the uevent socket in that network namespace
can still listen to uevents.
- Fix permission for tagged kobjects:
Network devices that are created or moved into a network namespace that
is owned by a non-initial user namespace currently are send with
INVALID_{G,U}ID in their credentials. This means that all current udev
implementations in userspace will ignore the uevent they receive for
them. This has lead to weird bugs whereby new devices showing up in such
network namespaces were not recognized and did not get IPs assigned etc.
This patch adjusts the permission to the appropriate {g,u}id in the
respective user namespace. This way udevd is able to correctly handle
such devices.
- Simplify filtering logic:
do_one_broadcast() already ensures that only listeners in mc_list receive
uevents that have the same network namespace as the uevent socket itself.
So the filtering logic in kobj_bcast_filter is not needed (see [3]). This
patch therefore removes kobj_bcast_filter() and replaces
netlink_broadcast_filtered() with the simpler netlink_broadcast()
everywhere.

This patch adds a receive method to NETLINK_KOBJECT_UEVENT netlink sockets
to allow sending uevent messages into the network namespace the socket
belongs to.
Currently non-initial network namespaces are already isolated and don't
receive uevents. There are a number of cases where it is beneficial for a
sufficiently privileged userspace process to send a uevent into a network
namespace.
One such use case would be debugging and fuzzing of a piece of software
which listens and reacts to uevents. By running a copy of that software
inside a network namespace, specific uevents could then be presented to it.
More concretely, this would allow for easy testing of udevd/ueventd.
This will also allow some piece of software to run components inside a
separate network namespace and then effectively filter what that software
can receive. Some examples of software that do directly listen to uevents
and that we have in the past attempted to run inside a network namespace
are rbd (CEPH client) or the X server.
Implementation:
The implementation has been kept as simple as possible from the kernel's
perspective. Specifically, a simple input method uevent_net_rcv() is added
to NETLINK_KOBJECT_UEVENT sockets which completely reuses existing
af_netlink infrastructure and does neither add an additional netlink family
nor requires any user-visible changes.
For example, by using netlink_rcv_skb() we can make use of existing netlink
infrastructure to report back informative error messages to userspace.
Furthermore, this implementation does not introduce any overhead for
existing uevent generating codepaths. The struct netns got a new uevent
socket member that records the uevent socket associated with that network
namespace including its position in the uevent socket list. Since we record
the uevent socket for each network namespace in struct net we don't have to
walk the whole uevent socket list. Instead we can directly retrieve the
relevant uevent socket and send the message. At exit time we can now also
trivially remove the uevent socket from the uevent socket list. This keeps
the codepath very performant without introducing needless overhead and even
makes older codepaths faster.
Uevent sequence numbers are kept global. When a uevent message is sent to
another network namespace the implementation will simply increment the
global uevent sequence number and append it to the received uevent. This
has the advantage that the kernel will never need to parse the received
uevent message to replace any existing uevent sequence numbers. Instead it
is up to the userspace process to remove any existing uevent sequence
numbers in case the uevent message to be sent contains any.
Security:
In order for a caller to send uevent messages to a target network namespace
the caller must have CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the owning user namespace of the
target network namespace. Additionally, any received uevent message is
verified to not exceed size UEVENT_BUFFER_SIZE. This includes the space
needed to append the uevent sequence number.
Testing:
This patch has been tested and verified to work with the following udev
implementations:
1. CentOS 6 with udevd version 147
2. Debian Sid with systemd-udevd version 237
3. Android 7.1.1 with ueventd

This commit adds struct uevent_sock to struct net. Since struct uevent_sock
records the position of the uevent socket in the uevent socket list we can
trivially remove it from the uevent socket list during cleanup. This speeds
up the old removal codepath.
Note, list_del() will hit __list_del_entry_valid() in its call chain which
will validate that the element is a member of the list. If it isn't it will
take care that the list is not modified.

uevent_net_init() and uevent_net_exit() create and
destroy netlink socket, and these actions serialized
in netlink code.
Parallel execution with other pernet_operations
makes the socket disappear earlier from uevent_sock_list
on ->exit. As userspace can't be interested in broadcast
messages of dying net, and, as I see, no one in kernel
listen them, we may safely make uevent_net_ops async.

The commit 4a336a23d6 ("kobject: copy env blob in one go") optimized
constructing uevent data for delivery over netlink by using the raw
environment buffer, instead of reconstructing it from individual
environment pointers. Unfortunately in doing so it broke suppressing
MODALIAS attribute for KOBJ_UNBIND events, as the code that suppressed this
attribute only adjusted the environment pointers, but left the buffer
itself alone. Let's fix it by making sure the offending attribute is
obliterated form the buffer as well.

The current udev rules cause modules to be loaded on all device events save
for "remove". With the introduction of KOBJ_BIND/KOBJ_UNBIND this causes
issues, as driver modules that have devices bound to their drivers get
immediately reloaded, and it appears to the user that module unloading doe
snot work.
The standard udev matching rule is foillowing:
ENV{MODALIAS}=="?*", RUN{builtin}+="kmod load $env{MODALIAS}"
Given that MODALIAS data is not terribly useful for UNBIND event, let's zap
it from the generated uevent environment until we get userspace updated
with the correct udev rule that only loads modules on "add" event.

There are certain touch controllers that may come up in either normal
(application) or boot mode, depending on whether firmware/configuration is
corrupted when they are powered on. In boot mode the kernel does not create
input device instance (because it does not necessarily know the
characteristics of the input device in question).
Another number of controllers does not store firmware in a non-volatile
memory, and they similarly need to have firmware loaded before input device
instance is created. There are also other types of devices with similar
behavior.
There is a desire to be able to trigger firmware loading via udev, but it
has to happen only when driver is bound to a physical device (i2c or spi).
These udev actions can not use ADD events, as those happen too early, so we
are introducing BIND and UNBIND events that are emitted at the right
moment.
Also, many drivers create additional driver-specific device attributes
when binding to the device, to provide userspace with additional controls.
The new events allow userspace to adjust these driver-specific attributes
without worrying that they are not there yet.

This patch makes it possible to pass additional arguments in addition
to uevent action name when writing /sys/.../uevent attribute. These
additional arguments are then inserted into generated synthetic uevent
as additional environment variables.
Before, we were not able to pass any additional uevent environment
variables for synthetic uevents. This made it hard to identify such uevents
properly in userspace to make proper distinction between genuine uevents
originating from kernel and synthetic uevents triggered from userspace.
Also, it was not possible to pass any additional information which would
make it possible to optimize and change the way the synthetic uevents are
processed back in userspace based on the originating environment of the
triggering action in userspace. With the extra additional variables, we are
able to pass through this extra information needed and also it makes it
possible to synchronize with such synthetic uevents as they can be clearly
identified back in userspace.
The format for writing the uevent attribute is following:
ACTION [UUID [KEY=VALUE ...]
There's no change in how "ACTION" is recognized - it stays the same
("add", "change", "remove"). The "ACTION" is the only argument required
to generate synthetic uevent, the rest of arguments, that this patch
adds support for, are optional.
The "UUID" is considered as transaction identifier so it's possible to
use the same UUID value for one or more synthetic uevents in which case
we logically group these uevents together for any userspace listeners.
The "UUID" is expected to be in "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx"
format where "x" is a hex digit. The value appears in uevent as
"SYNTH_UUID=xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx" environment variable.
The "KEY=VALUE" pairs can contain alphanumeric characters only. It's
possible to define zero or more more pairs - each pair is then delimited
by a space character " ". Each pair appears in synthetic uevents as
"SYNTH_ARG_KEY=VALUE" environment variable. That means the KEY name gains
"SYNTH_ARG_" prefix to avoid possible collisions with existing variables.
To pass the "KEY=VALUE" pairs, it's also required to pass in the "UUID"
part for the synthetic uevent first.
If "UUID" is not passed in, the generated synthetic uevent gains
"SYNTH_UUID=0" environment variable automatically so it's possible to
identify this situation in userspace when reading generated uevent and so
we can still make a difference between genuine and synthetic uevents.
