Subject: [PATCH] af_unix: Don't set err in unix_stream_read_generic unless there was an error
Date: Mon, 08 Feb 2016 18:47:19 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87bn7rrqdk.fsf@doppelsaurus.mobileactivedefense.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87twljrsb1.fsf@doppelsaurus.mobileactivedefense.com> (Rainer Weikusat's message of "Mon, 08 Feb 2016 18:05:38 +0000")

The present unix_stream_read_generic contains various code sequences of
the form

err = -EDISASTER;
if (<test>)
	goto out;

This has the unfortunate side effect of possibly causing the error code
to bleed through to the final

out:
	return copied ? : err;

and then to be wrongly returned if no data was copied because the caller
didn't supply a data buffer, as demonstrated by the program available at

http://pad.lv/1540731

Change it such that err is only set if an error condition was detected.

Fixes: 3822b5c2fc62 ("af_unix: Revert 'lock_interruptible' in stream receive code")
Reported-by: Joseph Salisbury <joseph.salisbury@canonical.com>
Signed-off-by: Rainer Weikusat <rweikusat@mobileactivedefense.com>
---

And the subject again fixed and, since another correction was necessary,
anyway, a Reported-by added.
