[PATCH] drbd: Fix kernel_sendmsg() usage

[PATCH] drbd: Fix kernel_sendmsg() usage

[Richard Weinberger]

Don't pass a size larger than iov_len to kernel_sendmsg().
Otherwise it will cause a NULL pointer deref when kernel_sendmsg()
returns with rv < size.

Although the issue exists since day 0, only on non-ancient kernels
that contain change 57be5bdad759 ("ip: convert tcp_sendmsg() to iov_iter
primitives") it seems to trigger [0][1][2][3][4].

Changing my patch is perfectly fine, but please clearly state it.
I.e. by adding something like that before your S-o-b.

So my "change" against his original patch was
- rv = kernel_sendmsg(sock, &msg, &iov, 1, size - sent);
+ rv = kernel_sendmsg(sock, &msg, &iov, 1, iov.iov_len);
to make it "more obviously correct" from looking just at the one line
without even having to read the context.  And a more verbose commit message.

If that requires yet additional noise, sure, so be it :)

Should I sent two patches, one that applies to 4.5 and later,
and one that applies to 2.6.33 ... 4.4, or are you or stable
willing to resolve the trivial "missing comment block" conflict yourself?

By accident, probably.

I'm ok with you guys just using the original, if you prefer, just let me
know.  It's the fix, that's important, not how much noise we can make
about that oneliner.

I'm fine with you making that change, I do that too sometimes for
patches. But Richard is absolutely right in that you need to make a note
of that. It's no longer the patch he signed off on, so it needs to
reflect that.

Since it's a trivial one liner, let's just do one for the current series
and the stable folks should be able to do that one. If not, they will
let us know.

[PATCH v2] drbd: Fix kernel_sendmsg() usage - potential NULL deref

[Lars Ellenberg]

From: Richard Weinberger <richard@nod.at>

Don't pass a size larger than iov_len to kernel_sendmsg().
Otherwise it will cause a NULL pointer deref when kernel_sendmsg()
returns with rv < size.

DRBD as external module has been around in the kernel 2.4 days already.
We used to be compatible to 2.4 and very early 2.6 kernels,
we used to use
 rv = sock_sendmsg(sock, &msg, iov.iov_len);
then later changed to
 rv = kernel_sendmsg(sock, &msg, &iov, 1, size);
when we should have used
 rv = kernel_sendmsg(sock, &msg, &iov, 1, iov.iov_len);

tcp_sendmsg() used to totally ignore the size parameter.
 57be5bd ip: convert tcp_sendmsg() to iov_iter primitives
changes that, and exposes our long standing error.

Even with this error exposed, to trigger the bug, we would need to have
an environment (config or otherwise) causing us to not use sendpage()
for larger transfers, a failing connection, and have it fail "just at the
right time".  Apparently that was unlikely enough for most, so this went
unnoticed for years.

Still, it is known to trigger at least some of these,
and suspected for the others:
[0] http://lists.linbit.com/pipermail/drbd-user/2016-July/023112.html

[3] https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2336150
[4] http://e2.howsolveproblem.com/i/1175162/

This should go into 4.9,
and into all stable branches since and including v4.0,
which is the first to contain the exposing change.

It is correct for all stable branches older than that as well
(which contain the DRBD driver; which is 2.6.33 and up).

It requires a small "conflict" resolution for v4.4 and earlier, with v4.5
we dropped the comment block immediately preceding the kernel_sendmsg().

ACK.  I'll rebase commit 7a4992299554 ([drbd] use sock_sendmsg()) on top
of that as soon as it hits the mainline.  For conspiracy theorists out
there (hi, Brad) - that commit (killing the modifications of iovec and
reinitializing msg->iov_iter; just set it once and let sendmsg() update
it in normal fashion) had been sitting around since late 2014.  It happened
to fix the bug in question, without a single line refering to that in commit
message.  Reason: I had completely missed the problem; intent of that
loop had been obvious and replacement had obviously done what was intended
there.  What I had failed to spot was that the code in there did *not*
match that intent.  Replacement does.  And unlike the minimal fix (either
version) it doesn't belong in -stable.

Our drbd configuration was created some 8 years ago.
Maybe I should have read more migration tips when upgrading again and
again, sorry ;-)

But a 30cm Cat6 cable directly connecting 2 dedicated ethernet ports
should not match the term "flaky connection".

FYI:
I co-own the company that hired Richard to track down this bug, that
repeatedly (~15 times) forced us to hard-reset servers hosting tens of
virtual root servers for our customers.

The real fix here is to convert it to the right primitive, e.g. take
Al's patch from here:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs.git/commit/?h=work.sendmsg&id=7a4992299554a9e1ed3c4540bcfa9e40aa9a6376

Yes, I talked already with Al about this. He suggested to fix the size parameter
first such that back-porting to -stable is easy.
