2018-09-28Merge branch 'netlink-nested-policy-validation'David S. Miller
Johannes Berg says: ==================== netlink: nested policy validation This adds nested policy validation, which lets you specify the nested attribute type, e.g. NLA_NESTED with sub-policy, or the new NLA_NESTED_ARRAY with sub-sub-policy. Changes in v2: * move setting the bad attr pointer/message into validate_nla() * remove the recursion patch since that's no longer needed * simply skip the generic bad attr pointer/message setting in case of nested nla_validate() failing since that could fail only due to validate_nla() failing inside, which already sets the extack information Changes in v3: * fix NLA_REJECT to have an error message if none is in policy ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2018-09-28netlink: add nested array policy validationJohannes Berg
Sometimes nested netlink attributes are just used as arrays, with the nla_type() of each not being used; we have this in nl80211 and e.g. NFTA_SET_ELEM_LIST_ELEMENTS. Add the ability to validate this type of message directly in the policy, by adding the type NLA_NESTED_ARRAY which does exactly this: require a first level of nesting but ignore the attribute type, and then inside each require a second level of nested and validate those attributes against a given policy (if present). Note that some nested array types actually require that all of the entries have the same index, this is possible to express in a nested policy already, apart from the validation that only the one allowed type is used.

2018-09-28netlink: allow NLA_NESTED to specify nested policy to validateJohannes Berg
Now that we have a validation_data pointer, and the len field in the policy is unused for NLA_NESTED, we can allow using them both to have nested validation. This can be nice in code, although we still have to use nla_parse_nested() or similar which would also take a policy; however, it also serves as documentation in the policy without requiring a look at the code.

2018-09-28netlink: move extack setting into validate_nla()Johannes Berg
This unifies the code between nla_parse() which sets the bad attribute pointer and an error message, and nla_validate() which only sets the bad attribute pointer. It also cleans up the code for NLA_REJECT and paves the way for nested policy validation, as it will allow us to easily skip setting the "generic" message without any extra args like the **error_msg now, just passing the extack through is now enough. While at it, remove the unnecessary label in nla_parse(). Suggested-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2018-09-28iwlwifi: dbg: don't crash if the firmware crashes in the middle of a debug dumpEmmanuel Grumbach
We can dump data from the firmware either when it crashes, or when the firmware is alive. Not all the data is available if the firmware is running (like the Tx / Rx FIFOs which are available only when the firmware is halted), so we first check that the firmware is alive to compute the required size for the dump and then fill the buffer with the data. When we allocate the buffer, we test the STATUS_FW_ERROR bit to check if the firmware is alive or not. This bit can be changed during the course of the dump since it is modified in the interrupt handler. We hit a case where we allocate the buffer while the firmware is sill working, and while we start to fill the buffer, the firmware crashes. Then we test STATUS_FW_ERROR again and decide to fill the buffer with data like the FIFOs even if no room was allocated for this data in the buffer. This means that we overflow the buffer that was allocated leading to memory corruption. To fix this, test the STATUS_FW_ERROR bit only once and rely on local variables to check if we should dump fifos or other firmware components.

Also, change the valid range of the number of descriptors in the rings to make the code simpler and easier for users to understand (this removes the valid settings of 8 and 16). Add a system log message indicating when the number is rounded-up from what the user specifies with the 'ethtool -G' command (i.e. when it is not a multiple of 32), and update the log message when a user-provided value is out of range to also indicate the stride.

2018-09-27ice: update fw version check logicJacob Keller
We have MAX_FW_API_VER_BRANCH, MAX_FW_API_VER_MAJOR, and MAX_FW_API_VER_MINOR that we use in ice_controlq.h to test when a firmware version is newer than expected. This is currently tested by comparing each field separately. Thus, we compare the branch field against the MAX_FW_API_VER_BRANCH, and so forth. This means that currently, if we suppose that the max firmware version is defined as 0.2.1, i.e. Then firmware 0.1.3 will fail to load. This is because the minor version 3 is greater than the max minor version 1. This is not intuitive, because of the notion that increasing the major firmware version to 2 should mean any firmware version with a major version is less than 2 should be considered older than 2... In order to allow both 0.2.1 and 0.1.3 to load, you would have to define the "max" firmware version as 0.2.3.. It is possible that such a firmware version doesn't even exist yet! Fix this by replacing the current logic with an updated check that behaves as follows: First, we check the major version. If it is greater than the expected version, then we prevent driver load. Additionally, a warning message is logged to indicate to the system administrator that they need to update their driver. This is now the only case where the driver will refuse to load. Second, if the major version is less than the expected version, we log an information message indicating the NVM should be updated. Third, if the major version is exact, we'll then check the minor version. If the minor version is more than two versions less than expected, we log an information message indicating the NVM should be updated. If it is more than two versions greater than the expected version, we log an information message that the driver should be updated. To support this, the ice_aq_ver_check function needs its signature updated to pass the HW structure. Since we now pass this structure, there is no need to pass the firmware API versions separately.
