[ Upstream commit dbf47a2a09 ]
Action sample doesn't properly handle psample_group pointer in overwrite
case. Following issues need to be fixed:
- In tcf_sample_init() function RCU_INIT_POINTER() is used to set
s->psample_group, even though we neither setting the pointer to NULL, nor
preventing concurrent readers from accessing the pointer in some way.
Use rcu_swap_protected() instead to safely reset the pointer.
- Old value of s->psample_group is not released or deallocated in any way,
which results resource leak. Use psample_group_put() on non-NULL value
obtained with rcu_swap_protected().
- The function psample_group_put() that released reference to struct
psample_group pointed by rcu-pointer s->psample_group doesn't respect rcu
grace period when deallocating it. Extend struct psample_group with rcu
head and use kfree_rcu when freeing it.

For the time being I will be available in my private mail. Update both the
MAINTAINERS file and the individual modules MODULE_AUTHOR directive with
the new address.

It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *,
and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not.
Make these functions (skb_put, __skb_put and pskb_put) return void *
and remove all the casts across the tree, adding a (u8 *) cast only
where the unsigned char pointer was used directly, all done with the
following spatch:
@@
expression SKB, LEN;
typedef u8;
identifier fn = { skb_put, __skb_put };
@@
- *(fn(SKB, LEN))
+ *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN)
@@
expression E, SKB, LEN;
identifier fn = { skb_put, __skb_put };
type T;
@@
- E = ((T *)(fn(SKB, LEN)))
+ E = fn(SKB, LEN)
which actually doesn't cover pskb_put since there are only three
users overall.
A handful of stragglers were converted manually, notably a macro in
drivers/isdn/i4l/isdn_bsdcomp.c and, oddly enough, one of the many
instances in net/bluetooth/hci_sock.c. In the former file, I also
had to fix one whitespace problem spatch introduced.

Add a general way for kernel modules to sample packets, without being tied
to any specific subsystem. This netlink channel can be used by tc,
iptables, etc. and allow to standardize packet sampling in the kernel.
For every sampled packet, the psample module adds the following metadata
fields:
PSAMPLE_ATTR_IIFINDEX - the packets input ifindex, if applicable
PSAMPLE_ATTR_OIFINDEX - the packet output ifindex, if applicable
PSAMPLE_ATTR_ORIGSIZE - the packet's original size, in case it has been
truncated during sampling
PSAMPLE_ATTR_SAMPLE_GROUP - the packet's sample group, which is set by the
user who initiated the sampling. This field allows the user to
differentiate between several samplers working simultaneously and
filter packets relevant to him
PSAMPLE_ATTR_GROUP_SEQ - sequence counter of last sent packet. The
sequence is kept for each group
PSAMPLE_ATTR_SAMPLE_RATE - the sampling rate used for sampling the packets
PSAMPLE_ATTR_DATA - the actual packet bits
The sampled packets are sent to the PSAMPLE_NL_MCGRP_SAMPLE multicast
group. In addition, add the GET_GROUPS netlink command which allows the
user to see the current sample groups, their refcount and sequence number.
This command currently supports only netlink dump mode.
