Date: Tue, 16 Feb 2021 22:38:42 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <YCwfQn21MdZmE3CO@mwanda> (raw)
Hello Cong Wang,
The patch 3b23a32a6321: "net: fix dev_ifsioc_locked() race condition"
from Feb 11, 2021, leads to the following static checker warning:
drivers/net/tap.c:1095 tap_ioctl()
warn: check that 'sa.sa_family' doesn't leak information
drivers/net/tap.c
1084
1085 case SIOCGIFHWADDR:
1086 rtnl_lock();
1087 tap = tap_get_tap_dev(q);
1088 if (!tap) {
1089 rtnl_unlock();
1090 return -ENOLINK;
1091 }
1092 ret = 0;
1093 dev_get_mac_address(&sa, dev_net(tap->dev), tap->dev->name);
How do you want to handle errors from dev_get_mac_address()?
1094 if (copy_to_user(&ifr->ifr_name, tap->dev->name, IFNAMSIZ) ||
1095 copy_to_user(&ifr->ifr_hwaddr, &sa, sizeof(sa)))
1096 ret = -EFAULT;
1097 tap_put_tap_dev(tap);
1098 rtnl_unlock();
1099 return ret;
1100
regards,
dan carpenter
