net: Write lock dev_base_lock without disabling bottom halves.

[ Upstream commit fd888e85fe6b661e78044dddfec0be5271afa626 ]

The writer acquires dev_base_lock with disabled bottom halves.
The reader can acquire dev_base_lock without disabling bottom halves
because there is no writer in softirq context.

On PREEMPT_RT the softirqs are preemptible and local_bh_disable() acts
as a lock to ensure that resources, that are protected by disabling
bottom halves, remain protected.
This leads to a circular locking dependency if the lock acquired with
disabled bottom halves (as in write_lock_bh()) and somewhere else with
enabled bottom halves (as by read_lock() in netstat_show()) followed by
disabling bottom halves (cxgb_get_stats() -> t4_wr_mbox_meat_timeout()
-> spin_lock_bh()). This is the reverse locking order.

All read_lock() invocation are from sysfs callback which are not invoked
from softirq context. Therefore there is no need to disable bottom
halves while acquiring a write lock.

Acquire the write lock of dev_base_lock without disabling bottom halves.

[ Upstream commit 155fb43b70b5fce341347a77d1af2765d1e8fbb8 ]

Property list (altname is a link "property") is wrapped
in a nlattr. nlattrs length is 16bit so practically
speaking the list of properties can't be longer than
that, otherwise user space would have to interpret
broken netlink messages.

Prevent the problem from occurring by checking the length
of the property list before adding new entries.

But if_nlmsg_stats_size() never considered the needed storage.

This bug did not show up because alloc_skb(X) allocates skb with
extra tailroom, because of added alignments. This could very well
be changed in the future to have deterministic behavior.

rtnetlink: Return correct error on changing device netns

Currently when device is moved between network namespaces using
RTM_NEWLINK message type and one of netns attributes (FLA_NET_NS_PID,
IFLA_NET_NS_FD, IFLA_TARGET_NETNSID) but w/o specifying IFLA_IFNAME, and
target namespace already has device with same name, userspace will get
EINVAL what is confusing and makes debugging harder.

Fix it so that userspace gets more appropriate EEXIST instead what makes
debugging much easier.

Before:

# ./ifname.sh
+ ip netns add ns0
+ ip netns exec ns0 ip link add l0 type dummy
+ ip netns exec ns0 ip link show l0
8: l0: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000

link/ether 6e:c6:1f:15:20:8d brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
+ ip link set l0 netns ns0
RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument

After:

# ./ifname.sh
+ ip netns add ns0
+ ip netns exec ns0 ip link add l0 type dummy
+ ip netns exec ns0 ip link show l0
8: l0: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/ether 1e:4a:72:e3:e3:8f brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

link/ether f2:fc:fe:2b:7d:a6 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
+ ip link set l0 netns ns0
RTNETLINK answers: File exists

The problem is that do_setlink() passes its `char *ifname` argument,
that it gets from a caller, to __dev_change_net_namespace() as is (as
`const char *pat`), but semantics of ifname and pat can be different.

For example, __rtnl_newlink() does this:

net/core/rtnetlink.c
3270 char ifname[IFNAMSIZ];
...
3286 if (tb[IFLA_IFNAME])
3287 nla_strscpy(ifname, tb[IFLA_IFNAME], IFNAMSIZ);
3288 else
3289 ifname[0] = '\0';
...
3364 if (dev) {
...
3394 return do_setlink(skb, dev, ifm, extack, tb, ifname, status);
3395 }

, i.e. do_setlink() gets ifname pointer that is always valid no matter
if user specified IFLA_IFNAME or not and then do_setlink() passes this
ifname pointer as is to __dev_change_net_namespace() as pat argument.

But the pat (pattern) in __dev_change_net_namespace() is used as:

net/core/dev.c
11198 err = -EEXIST;
11199 if (__dev_get_by_name(net, dev->name)) {
11200 /* We get here if we can't use the current device name */
11201 if (!pat)
11202 goto out;
11203 err = dev_get_valid_name(net, dev, pat);
11204 if (err < 0)
11205 goto out;
11206 }

As the result the `goto out` path on line 11202 is neven taken and
instead of returning EEXIST defined on line 11198,
__dev_change_net_namespace() returns an error from dev_get_valid_name()
and this, in turn, will be EINVAL for ifname[0] = '\0' set earlier.

rtnetlink: add IFLA_PARENT_[DEV|DEV_BUS]_NAME

In some cases, for example in the upcoming WWAN framework changes,
there's no natural "parent netdev", so sometimes dummy netdevs are
created or similar. IFLA_PARENT_DEV_NAME is a new attribute intended to
contain a device (sysfs, struct device) name that can be used instead
when creating a new netdev, if the rtnetlink family implements it.

As suggested by Parav Pandit, we also introduce IFLA_PARENT_DEV_BUS_NAME
attribute in order to uniquely identify a device on the system (with
bus/name pair).

ip-link(8) support for the generic parent device attributes will help
us avoid code duplication, so no other link type will require a custom
code to handle the parent name attribute. E.g. the WWAN interface
creation command will looks like this:

$ ip link add wwan0-1 parent-dev wwan0 type wwan channel-id 1

So, some future subsystem (or driver) FOO will have an interface
creation command that looks like this:

$ ip link add foo1-3 parent-dev foo1 type foo bar-id 3 baz-type Y

Below is an example of dumping link info of a random device with these
new attributes:

$ ip --details link show wlp0s20f3
4: wlp0s20f3: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue
state UP mode DORMANT group default qlen 1000

This was not a problem until we begin to take mutex lock

ipv6: report errors for iftoken via netlink extack

Setting iftoken can fail for several different reasons but there
and there was no report to user as to the cause. Add netlink
extended errors to the processing of the request.

This requires adding additional argument through rtnl_af_ops
set_link_af callback.

net: remove the new_ifindex argument from dev_change_net_namespace

Here is only one place where we want to specify new_ifindex. In all
other cases, callers pass 0 as new_ifindex. It looks reasonable to add a
low-level function with new_ifindex and to convert
dev_change_net_namespace to a static inline wrapper.

net: Allow to specify ifindex when device is moved to another namespace

Currently, we can specify ifindex on link creation. This change allows
to specify ifindex when a device is moved to another network namespace.

Even now, a device ifindex can be changed if there is another device
with the same ifindex in the target namespace. So this change doesn't
introduce completely new behavior, it adds more control to the process.

CRIU users want to restore containers with pre-created network devices.
A user will provide network devices and instructions where they have to
be restored, then CRIU will restore network namespaces and move devices
into them. The problem is that devices have to be restored with the same
indexes that they have before C/R.
