<id>urn:sha1:5832c4a77d6931cebf9ba737129ae8f14b66ee1d</id>
<content type='text'>
Historically, tunnel flags like TUNNEL_CSUM or TUNNEL_ERSPAN_OPT
have been defined as __be16. Now all of those 16 bits are occupied
and there's no more free space for new flags.
It can't be simply switched to a bigger container with no
adjustments to the values, since it's an explicit Endian storage,
and on LE systems (__be16)0x0001 equals to
(__be64)0x0001000000000000.
We could probably define new 64-bit flags depending on the
Endianness, i.e. (__be64)0x0001 on BE and (__be64)0x00010000... on
LE, but that would introduce an Endianness dependency and spawn a
ton of Sparse warnings. To mitigate them, all of those places which
were adjusted with this change would be touched anyway, so why not
define stuff properly if there's no choice.

Define IP_TUNNEL_*_BIT counterparts as a bit number instead of the
value already coded and a fistful of &lt;16 &lt;-&gt; bitmap&gt; converters and
helpers. The two flags which have a different bit position are
SIT_ISATAP_BIT and VTI_ISVTI_BIT, as they were defined not as
__cpu_to_be16(), but as (__force __be16), i.e. had different
positions on LE and BE. Now they both have strongly defined places.
Change all __be16 fields which were used to store those flags, to
IP_TUNNEL_DECLARE_FLAGS() -&gt; DECLARE_BITMAP(__IP_TUNNEL_FLAG_NUM) -&gt;
unsigned long[1] for now, and replace all TUNNEL_* occurrences to
their bitmap counterparts. Use the converters in the places which talk
to the userspace, hardware (NFP) or other hosts (GRE header). The rest
must explicitly use the new flags only. This must be done at once,
otherwise there will be too many conversions throughout the code in
the intermediate commits.
Finally, disable the old __be16 flags for use in the kernel code
(except for the two 'irregular' flags mentioned above), to prevent
any accidental (mis)use of them. For the userspace, nothing is
changed, only additions were made.

Most noticeable bloat-o-meter difference (.text):

vmlinux:	307/-1 (306)
gre.ko:		62/0 (62)
ip_gre.ko:	941/-217 (724)	[*]
ip_tunnel.ko:	390/-900 (-510)	[**]
ip_vti.ko:	138/0 (138)
ip6_gre.ko:	534/-18 (516)	[*]
ip6_tunnel.ko:	118/-10 (108)

[*] gre_flags_to_tnl_flags() grew, but still is inlined
[**] ip_tunnel_find() got uninlined, hence such decrease

The average code size increase in non-extreme case is 100-200 bytes
per module, mostly due to sizeof(long) &gt; sizeof(__be16), as
%__IP_TUNNEL_FLAG_NUM is less than %BITS_PER_LONG and the compilers
are able to expand the majority of bitmap_*() calls here into direct
operations on scalars.

<title>genetlink: Use internal flags for multicast groups</title>

<id>urn:sha1:cd4d7263d58ab98fd4dee876776e4da6c328faa3</id>
<content type='text'>
As explained in commit e03781879a0d ("drop_monitor: Require
'CAP_SYS_ADMIN' when joining "events" group"), the "flags" field in the
multicast group structure reuses uAPI flags despite the field not being
exposed to user space. This makes it impossible to extend its use
without adding new uAPI flags, which is inappropriate for internal
kernel checks.

Solve this by adding internal flags (i.e., "GENL_MCAST_*") and convert
the existing users to use them instead of the uAPI flags.

Tested using the reproducers in commit 44ec98ea5ea9 ("psample: Require
'CAP_NET_ADMIN' when joining "packets" group") and commit e03781879a0d
("drop_monitor: Require 'CAP_SYS_ADMIN' when joining "events" group").

No functional changes intended.

<id>urn:sha1:44ec98ea5ea9cfecd31a5c4cc124703cb5442832</id>
<content type='text'>
The "psample" generic netlink family notifies sampled packets over the
"packets" multicast group. This is problematic since by default generic
netlink allows non-root users to listen to these notifications.

Fix by marking the group with the 'GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM' flag. This will
prevent non-root users or root without the 'CAP_NET_ADMIN' capability
(in the user namespace owning the network namespace) from joining the
group.

Tested using [1].

 # capsh -- -c ./psample_repo
 # capsh --drop=cap_net_admin -- -c ./psample_repo

After:

 # capsh -- -c ./psample_repo
 # capsh --drop=cap_net_admin -- -c ./psample_repo

<title>genetlink: start to validate reserved header bytes</title>

<content type='text'>
We had historically not checked that genlmsghdr.reserved
is 0 on input which prevents us from using those precious
bytes in the future.

One use case would be to extend the cmd field, which is
currently just 8 bits wide and 256 is not a lot of commands
for some core families.

To make sure that new families do the right thing by default
put the onus of opting out of validation on existing families.

Extend psample to report the following attributes when available:

* Output traffic class as a 16-bit value
* Output traffic class occupancy in bytes as a 64-bit value
* End-to-end latency of the packet in nanoseconds resolution
* Software timestamp in nanoseconds resolution (always available)
* Packet's protocol. Needed for packet dissection in user space (always
  available)

<title>psample: Encapsulate packet metadata in a struct</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently, callers of psample_sample_packet() pass three metadata
attributes: Ingress port, egress port and truncated size. Subsequent
patches are going to add more attributes (e.g., egress queue occupancy),
which also need an indication whether they are valid or not.

Encapsulate packet metadata in a struct in order to keep the number of
arguments reasonable.

<title>net: psample: Fix netlink skb length with tunnel info</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a93dcaada2ddb58dbc72652b42548adedd646d7a</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, the psample netlink skb is allocated with a size that does
not account for the nested 'PSAMPLE_ATTR_TUNNEL' attribute and the
padding required for the 64-bit attribute 'PSAMPLE_TUNNEL_KEY_ATTR_ID'.
This can result in failure to add attributes to the netlink skb due
to insufficient tail room. The following error message is printed to
the kernel log: "Could not create psample log message".

Fix this by adjusting the allocation size to take into account the
nested attribute and the padding.
