net: remove sk_is_ipmr() and sk_is_icmpv6() helpers

Blamed commit added these helpers for sake of detecting RAW
sockets specific ioctl.

syzbot complained about it [1].

Issue here is that RAW sockets could pretend there was no need
to call ipmr_sk_ioctl()

Regardless of inet_sk(sk)->inet_num, we must be prepared
for ipmr_ioctl() being called later. This must happen
from ipmr_sk_ioctl() context only.

We could add a safety check in ipmr_ioctl() at the risk of breaking
applications.

Instead, remove sk_is_ipmr() and sk_is_icmpv6() because their
name would be misleading, once we change their implementation.

# e1d001fa 09-Jun-2023 Breno Leitao <leitao@debian.org>

net: ioctl: Use kernel memory on protocol ioctl callbacks

Most of the ioctls to net protocols operates directly on userspace
argument (arg). Usually doing get_user()/put_user() directly in the
ioctl callback. This is not flexible, because it is hard to reuse these
functions without passing userspace buffers.

Change the "struct proto" ioctls to avoid touching userspace memory and
operate on kernel buffers, i.e., all protocol's ioctl callbacks is
adapted to operate on a kernel memory other than on userspace (so, no
more {put,get}_user() and friends being called in the ioctl callback).

This changes the "struct proto" ioctl format in the following way:

int (*ioctl)(struct sock *sk, int cmd,
- unsigned long arg);
+ int *karg);

(Important to say that this patch does not touch the "struct proto_ops"
protocols)

So, the "karg" argument, which is passed to the ioctl callback, is a
pointer allocated to kernel space memory (inside a function wrapper).
This buffer (karg) may contain input argument (copied from userspace in
a prep function) and it might return a value/buffer, which is copied
back to userspace if necessary. There is not one-size-fits-all format
(that is I am using 'may' above), but basically, there are three type of
ioctls:

1) Do not read from userspace, returns a result to userspace
2) Read an input parameter from userspace, and does not return anything
to userspace
3) Read an input from userspace, and return a buffer to userspace.

The default case (1) (where no input parameter is given, and an "int" is
returned to userspace) encompasses more than 90% of the cases, but there
are two other exceptions. Here is a list of exceptions:

* Protocol RAW:
* cmd = SIOCGETVIFCNT:
* input and output = struct sioc_vif_req
* cmd = SIOCGETSGCNT
* input and output = struct sioc_sg_req
* Explanation: for the SIOCGETVIFCNT case, userspace passes the input
argument, which is struct sioc_vif_req. Then the callback populates
the struct, which is copied back to userspace.

* Protocol RAW6:
* cmd = SIOCGETMIFCNT_IN6
* input and output = struct sioc_mif_req6
* cmd = SIOCGETSGCNT_IN6
* input and output = struct sioc_sg_req6

* Protocol PHONET:
* cmd == SIOCPNADDRESOURCE | SIOCPNDELRESOURCE
* input int (4 bytes)
* Nothing is copied back to userspace.

For the exception cases, functions sock_sk_ioctl_inout() will
copy the userspace input, and copy it back to kernel space.

The wrapper that prepare the buffer and put the buffer back to user is
sk_ioctl(), so, instead of calling sk->sk_prot->ioctl(), the callee now
calls sk_ioctl(), which will handle all cases.

net: icmp: pass zeroed opts from icmp{,v6}_ndo_send before sending

The icmp{,v6}_send functions make all sorts of use of skb->cb, casting
it with IPCB or IP6CB, assuming the skb to have come directly from the
inet layer. But when the packet comes from the ndo layer, especially
when forwarded, there's no telling what might be in skb->cb at that
point. As a result, the icmp sending code risks reading bogus memory
contents, which can result in nasty stack overflows such as this one
reported by a user:

panic+0x108/0x2ea
__stack_chk_fail+0x14/0x20
__icmp_send+0x5bd/0x5c0
icmp_ndo_send+0x148/0x160

In icmp_send, skb->cb is cast with IPCB and an ip_options struct is read
from it. The optlen parameter there is of particular note, as it can
induce writes beyond bounds. There are quite a few ways that can happen
in __ip_options_echo. For example:

// sptr/skb are attacker-controlled skb bytes
sptr = skb_network_header(skb);
// dptr/dopt points to stack memory allocated by __icmp_send
dptr = dopt->__data;
// sopt is the corrupt skb->cb in question
if (sopt->rr) {
optlen = sptr[sopt->rr+1]; // corrupt skb->cb + skb->data
soffset = sptr[sopt->rr+2]; // corrupt skb->cb + skb->data
// this now writes potentially attacker-controlled data, over
// flowing the stack:
memcpy(dptr, sptr+sopt->rr, optlen);
}

In the icmpv6_send case, the story is similar, but not as dire, as only
IP6CB(skb)->iif and IP6CB(skb)->dsthao are used. The dsthao case is
worse than the iif case, but it is passed to ipv6_find_tlv, which does
a bit of bounds checking on the value.

This is easy to simulate by doing a `memset(skb->cb, 0x41,
sizeof(skb->cb));` before calling icmp{,v6}_ndo_send, and it's only by
good fortune and the rarity of icmp sending from that context that we've
avoided reports like this until now. For example, in KASAN:

BUG: KASAN: stack-out-of-bounds in __ip_options_echo+0xa0e/0x12b0
Write of size 38 at addr ffff888006f1f80e by task ping/89

memcpy+0x39/0x60
__ip_options_echo+0xa0e/0x12b0
__icmp_send+0x744/0x1700

Actually, out of the 4 drivers that do this, only gtp zeroed the cb for
the v4 case, while the rest did not. So this commit actually removes the
gtp-specific zeroing, while putting the code where it belongs in the
shared infrastructure of icmp{,v6}_ndo_send.

This commit fixes the issue by passing an empty IPCB or IP6CB along to
the functions that actually do the work. For the icmp_send, this was
already trivial, thanks to __icmp_send providing the plumbing function.
For icmpv6_send, this required a tiny bit of refactoring to make it
behave like the v4 case, after which it was straight forward.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is 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.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.

For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139

and resulted in the first patch in this series.

If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930

and resulted in the second patch in this series.

- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).

- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

ipv6: RFC 4884 partial support for SIT/GRE tunnels

When receiving an ICMPv4 message containing extensions as
defined in RFC 4884, and translating it to ICMPv6 at SIT
or GRE tunnel, we need some extra manipulation in order
to properly forward the extensions.

This patch only takes care of Time Exceeded messages as they
are the ones that typically carry information from various
routers in a fabric during a traceroute session.

It also avoids complex skb logic if the data_len is not
a multiple of 8.

RFC states :

The "original datagram" field MUST contain at least 128 octets.
If the original datagram did not contain 128 octets, the
"original datagram" field MUST be zero padded to 128 octets.

In practice routers use 128 bytes of original datagram, not more.

Initial translation was added in commit ca15a078bd90

IPV6: Fix default gateway criteria wrt. HIGH/LOW preference radv option

Problem observed:
In IPv6, in the presence of multiple routers candidates to
default gateway in one segment, each sending a different
value of preference, the Linux hosts connected to the
segment weren't selecting the right one in all the
combinations possible of LOW/MEDIUM/HIGH preference.

This patch changes two files:
include/linux/icmpv6.h
Get the "router_pref" bitfield in the right place
(as RFC4191 says), named the bit left with this fix as
"home_agent" (RFC3775 say that's his function)

net/ipv6/ndisc.c
Corrects the binary logic behind the updating of the
router preference in the flags of the routing table

Result:
With this two fixes applied, the default route used by
the system was to consistent with the rules mentioned
in RFC4191 in case of changes in the value of preference
in router advertisements

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
