af_unix: Fix msg_controllen test in scm_pidfd_recv() for MSG_CMSG_COMPAT.
Heiko Carstens reported that SCM_PIDFD does not work with MSG_CMSG_COMPAT because scm_pidfd_recv() always checks msg_controllen against sizeof(struct cmsghdr).
We need to use sizeof(struct compat_cmsghdr) for the compat case.

net: scm: introduce and use scm_recv_unix helper
Recently, our friends from bluetooth subsystem reported [1] that after commit 5e2ff6704a27 ("scm: add SO_PASSPIDFD and SCM_PIDFD") scm_recv() helper become unusable in kernel modules (because it uses unexported pidfd_prepare() API).
We were aware of this issue and workarounded it in a hard way by commit 97154bcf4d1b ("af_unix: Kconfig: make CONFIG_UNIX bool").
But recently a new functionality was added in the scope of commit 817efd3cad74 ("Bluetooth: hci_sock: Forward credentials to monitor") and after that bluetooth can't be compiled as a kernel module.
After some discussion in [1] we decided to split scm_recv() into two helpers, one won't support SCM_PIDFD (used for unix sockets), and another one will be completely the same as it was before commit 5e2ff6704a27 ("scm: add SO_PASSPIDFD and SCM_PIDFD").

af_unix: Skip SCM_PIDFD if scm->pid is NULL.
syzkaller hit a WARN_ON_ONCE(!scm->pid) in scm_pidfd_recv().
In unix_stream_read_generic(), if there is no skb in the queue, we could bail out the do-while loop without calling scm_set_cred():
1. No skb in the queue 2. sk is non-blocking or shutdown(sk, RCV_SHUTDOWN) is called concurrently or peer calls close()
If the socket is configured with SO_PASSPIDFD, scm_pidfd_recv() would populate cmsg with garbage emitting the warning.
Let's skip SCM_PIDFD if scm->pid is NULL in scm_pidfd_recv().
Note another way would be skip calling scm_recv() in such cases, but this caused a regression resulting in commit 9d797ee2dce1 ("Revert "af_unix: Call scm_recv() only after scm_set_cred()."").

scm: add SO_PASSPIDFD and SCM_PIDFD
Implement SCM_PIDFD, a new type of CMSG type analogical to SCM_CREDENTIALS, but it contains pidfd instead of plain pid, which allows programmers not to care about PID reuse problem.
We mask SO_PASSPIDFD feature if CONFIG_UNIX is not builtin because it depends on a pidfd_prepare() API which is not exported to the kernel modules.
Idea comes from UAPI kernel group: https://uapi-group.org/kernel-features/
Big thanks to Christian Brauner and Lennart Poettering for productive discussions about this.

scm: fix MSG_CTRUNC setting condition for SO_PASSSEC
Currently, kernel would set MSG_CTRUNC flag if msg_control buffer wasn't provided and SO_PASSCRED was set or if there was pending SCM_RIGHTS.
For some reason we have no corresponding check for SO_PASSSEC.
In the recvmsg(2) doc we have: MSG_CTRUNC indicates that some control data was discarded due to lack of space in the buffer for ancillary data.
So, we need to set MSG_CTRUNC flag for all types of SCM.
This change can break applications those don't check MSG_CTRUNC flag.

net/scm: Regularize compat handling of scm_detach_fds()
Duplicate the cleanups from commit 2618d530dd8b ("net/scm: cleanup scm_detach_fds") into the compat code.
Replace open-coded __receive_sock() with a call to the helper.
Move the check added in commit 1f466e1f15cf ("net: cleanly handle kernel vs user buffers for ->msg_control") to before the compat call, even though it should be impossible for an in-kernel call to also be compat.
Correct the int "flags" argument to unsigned int to match fd_install() and similar APIs.
Regularize any remaining differences, including a whitespace issue, a checkpatch warning, and add the check from commit 6900317f5eff ("net, scm: fix PaX detected msg_controllen overflow in scm_detach_fds") which fixed an overflow unique to 64-bit. To avoid confusion when comparing the compat handler to the native handler, just include the same check in the compat handler.

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
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.

unix: correctly track in-flight fds in sending process user_struct
The commit referenced in the Fixes tag incorrectly accounted the number of in-flight fds over a unix domain socket to the original opener of the file-descriptor. This allows another process to arbitrary deplete the original file-openers resource limit for the maximum of open files. Instead the sending processes and its struct cred should be credited.
To do so, we add a reference counted struct user_struct pointer to the scm_fp_list and use it to account for the number of inflight unix fds.

scm.h: Remove extern from function prototypes
There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for function prototypes.
Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern. extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

net: fix incorrect credentials passing
Commit 257b5358b32f ("scm: Capture the full credentials of the scm sender") changed the credentials passing code to pass in the effective uid/gid instead of the real uid/gid.
Obviously this doesn't matter most of the time (since normally they are the same), but it results in differences for suid binaries when the wrong uid/gid ends up being used.
This just undoes that (presumably unintentional) part of the commit.

scm: Stop passing struct cred
Now that uids and gids are completely encapsulated in kuid_t and kgid_t we no longer need to pass struct cred which allowed us to test both the uid and the user namespace for equality.
Passing struct cred potentially allows us to pass the entire group list as BSD does but I don't believe the cost of cache line misses justifies retaining code for a future potential application.

scm: Don't use struct ucred in NETLINK_CB and struct scm_cookie.
Passing uids and gids on NETLINK_CB from a process in one user namespace to a process in another user namespace can result in the wrong uid or gid being presented to userspace. Avoid that problem by passing kuids and kgids instead.
- define struct scm_creds for use in scm_cookie and netlink_skb_parms that holds uid and gid information in kuid_t and kgid_t.
- Modify scm_set_cred to fill out scm_creds by heand instead of using cred_to_ucred to fill out struct ucred. This conversion ensures userspace does not get incorrect uid or gid values to look at.
- Modify scm_recv to convert from struct scm_creds to struct ucred before copying credential values to userspace.
- Modify __scm_send to populate struct scm_creds on in the scm_cookie, instead of just copying struct ucred from userspace.
- Modify netlink_sendmsg to copy scm_creds instead of struct ucred into the NETLINK_CB.

af_netlink: force credentials passing [CVE-2012-3520]
Pablo Neira Ayuso discovered that avahi and potentially NetworkManager accept spoofed Netlink messages because of a kernel bug. The kernel passes all-zero SCM_CREDENTIALS ancillary data to the receiver if the sender did not provide such data, instead of not including any such data at all or including the correct data from the peer (as it is the case with AF_UNIX).
This bug was introduced in commit 16e572626961 (af_unix: dont send SCM_CREDENTIALS by default)
This patch forces passing credentials for netlink, as before the regression.
Another fix would be to not add SCM_CREDENTIALS in netlink messages if not provided by the sender, but it might break some programs.

af_unix: dont send SCM_CREDENTIALS by default
Since commit 7361c36c5224 (af_unix: Allow credentials to work across user and pid namespaces) af_unix performance dropped a lot.
This is because we now take a reference on pid and cred in each write(), and release them in read(), usually done from another process, eventually from another cpu. This triggers false sharing.

This patch includes SCM_CREDENTIALS information in a af_unix message/skb only if requested by the sender, [man 7 unix for details how to include ancillary data using sendmsg() system call]
Note: This might break buggy applications that expected SCM_CREDENTIAL from an unaware write() system call, and receiver not using SO_PASSCRED socket option.
If SOCK_PASSCRED is set on source or destination socket, we still include credentials for mere write() syscalls.

Scm: Remove unnecessary pid & credential references in Unix socket's send and receive path
Patch series 109f6e39..7361c36c back in 2.6.36 added functionality to allow credentials to work across pid
Scm: Remove unnecessary pid & credential references in Unix socket's send and receive path
Patch series 109f6e39..7361c36c back in 2.6.36 added functionality to allow credentials to work across pid namespaces for packets sent via UNIX sockets. However, the atomic reference counts on pid and credentials caused plenty of cache bouncing when there are numerous threads of the same pid sharing a UNIX socket. This patch mitigates the problem by eliminating extraneous reference counts on pid and credentials on both send and receive path of UNIX sockets. I found a 2x improvement in hackbench's threaded case.
On the receive path in unix_dgram_recvmsg, currently there is an increment of reference count on pid and credentials in scm_set_cred. Then there are two decrement of the reference counts. Once in scm_recv and once when skb_free_datagram call skb->destructor function unix_destruct_scm. One pair of increment and decrement of ref count on pid and credentials can be eliminated from the receive path. Until we destroy the skb, we already set a reference when we created the skb on the send side.
On the send path, there are two increments of ref count on pid and credentials, once in scm_send and once in unix_scm_to_skb. Then there is a decrement of the reference counts in scm_destroy's call to scm_destroy_cred at the end of unix_dgram_sendmsg functions. One pair of increment and decrement of the reference counts can be removed so we only need to increment the ref counts once.
By incorporating these changes, for hackbench running on a 4 socket NHM-EX machine with 40 cores, the execution of hackbench on 50 groups of 20 threads sped up by factor of 2.
Hackbench command used for testing: ./hackbench 50 thread 2000

scm_fp_dup() should not copy whole structure (and trigger kmemcheck warnings), but only the used part. While we are at it, only allocate needed size.

Start capturing not only the userspace pid, uid and gid values of the sending process but also the struct pid and struct cred of the sending process as well.
This is in preparation for properly supporting SCM_CREDENTIALS for sockets that have different uid and/or pid namespaces at the different ends.
