[PATCH] net: unix socket code abuses csum_partial

[Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>]

The unix socket code is using the result of csum_partial to
hash into a lookup table:

	unix_hash_fold(csum_partial(sunaddr, len, 0));

csum_partial is only guaranteed to produce something that can be
folded into a checksum, as its prototype explains:

 * returns a 32-bit number suitable for feeding into itself
 * or csum_tcpudp_magic

The 32bit value should not be used directly.

Depending on the alignment, the ppc64 csum_partial will return
different 32bit partial checksums that will fold into the same
16bit checksum.

This difference causes the following testcase (courtesy of
Gustavo) to sometimes fail:


#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
	int fd = socket(PF_LOCAL, SOCK_STREAM|SOCK_CLOEXEC, 0);

	int i = 1;
	setsockopt(fd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, &i, 4);

	struct sockaddr addr;
	addr.sa_family = AF_LOCAL;
	bind(fd, &addr, 2);

	listen(fd, 128);

	struct sockaddr_storage ss;
	socklen_t sslen = (socklen_t)sizeof(ss);
	getsockname(fd, (struct sockaddr*)&ss, &sslen);

	fd = socket(PF_LOCAL, SOCK_STREAM|SOCK_CLOEXEC, 0);

	if (connect(fd, (struct sockaddr*)&ss, sslen) == -1){
		perror(NULL);
		return 1;
	}
	printf("OK\n");
	return 0;
}
 

As suggested by davem, fix this by using csum_fold to fold the
partial 32bit checksum into a 16bit checksum before using it.
