genetlink: optionally validate strictly/dumps

2019-04-27T21:07:22+00:00

Add options to strictly validate messages and dump messages,
sometimes perhaps validating dump messages non-strictly may
be required, so add an option for that as well.

Since none of this can really be applied to existing commands,
set the options everwhere using the following spatch:

    @@
    identifier ops;
    expression X;
    @@
    struct genl_ops ops[] = {
    ...,
     {
            .cmd = X,
    +       .validate = GENL_DONT_VALIDATE_STRICT | GENL_DONT_VALIDATE_DUMP,
            ...
     },
    ...
    };

For new commands one should just not copy the .validate 'opt-out'
flags and thus get strict validation.

genetlink: make policy common to family

2019-03-22T14:38:23+00:00

Since maxattr is common, the policy can't really differ sanely,
so make it common as well.

The only user that did in fact manage to make a non-common policy
is taskstats, which has to be really careful about it (since it's
still using a common maxattr!). This is no longer supported, but
we can fake it using pre_doit.

This reduces the size of e.g. nl80211.o (which has lots of commands):

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 398745	  14323	   2240	 415308	  6564c	net/wireless/nl80211.o (before)
 397913	  14331	   2240	 414484	  65314	net/wireless/nl80211.o (after)
--------------------------------
   -832      +8       0    -824

Which is obviously just 8 bytes for each command, and an added 8
bytes for the new policy pointer. I'm not sure why the ops list is
counted as .text though.

Most of the code transformations were done using the following spatch:
    @ops@
    identifier OPS;
    expression POLICY;
    @@
    struct genl_ops OPS[] = {
    ...,
     {
    -	.policy = POLICY,
     },
    ...
    };

    @@
    identifier ops.OPS;
    expression ops.POLICY;
    identifier fam;
    expression M;
    @@
    struct genl_family fam = {
            .ops = OPS,
            .maxattr = M,
    +       .policy = POLICY,
            ...
    };

This also gets rid of devlink_nl_cmd_region_read_dumpit() accessing
the cb->data as ops, which we want to change in a later genl patch.

genetlink: mark families as __ro_after_init

2016-10-27T20:16:09+00:00

Now genl_register_family() is the only thing (other than the
users themselves, perhaps, but I didn't find any doing that)
writing to the family struct.

In all families that I found, genl_register_family() is only
called from __init functions (some indirectly, in which case
I've add __init annotations to clarifly things), so all can
actually be marked __ro_after_init.

This protects the data structure from accidental corruption.

genetlink: statically initialize families

2016-10-27T20:16:09+00:00

Instead of providing macros/inline functions to initialize
the families, make all users initialize them statically and
get rid of the macros.

This reduces the kernel code size by about 1.6k on x86-64
(with allyesconfig).

genetlink: no longer support using static family IDs

2016-10-27T20:16:09+00:00

Static family IDs have never really been used, the only
use case was the workaround I introduced for those users
that assumed their family ID was also their multicast
group ID.

Additionally, because static family IDs would never be
reserved by the generic netlink code, using a relatively
low ID would only work for built-in families that can be
registered immediately after generic netlink is started,
which is basically only the control family (apart from
the workaround code, which I also had to add code for so
it would reserve those IDs)

Thus, anything other than GENL_ID_GENERATE is flawed and
luckily not used except in the cases I mentioned. Move
those workarounds into a few lines of code, and then get
rid of GENL_ID_GENERATE entirely, making it more robust.

This removes a code line that is between a "return 0;" and an error label.
This code line can never be reached.
