[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/2] linux-user: dhclient support

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/2] linux-user: dhclient support

[Laurent Vivier]

This two patches allow to use dhclient to configure IP addresses
in a linux container running the linux-user version of qemu.

[PATCH 1/2] linux-user: Add setsockopt(SO_ATTACH_FILTER)
[PATCH 2/2] linux-user: SOCK_PACKET uses network endian to encode

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/2] linux-user: Add setsockopt(SO_ATTACH_FILTER)

[Laurent Vivier]

This is needed to be able to run dhclient.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 2/2] linux-user: SOCK_PACKET uses network endian to encode protocol in socket()

[Laurent Vivier]

From: Laurent Vivier <Laurent@Vivier.EU>

in PACKET(7) :
                                 protocol is the  IEEE  802.3  protocol
number in network order.  See the <linux/if_ether.h> include file for a
list of allowed protocols.  When protocol is  set  to  htons(ETH_P_ALL)
then all protocols are received.  All incoming packets of that protocol
type will be passed to the packet socket before they are passed to  the
protocols implemented in the kernel.

This brace should go on a line of its own (lined up with the 'c' in case) IMHO.

QEMU style requires braces on this if. You can use checkpatch.pl
to catch this kind of thing.

This will fail to unlock tfprog in the failure case.

Not sure an unconstrained-size alloca based on data from
the guest binary is a fantastic idea (though we no doubt
do something similar for some other syscalls).

Nice catch, but this is an unrelated change that should go in its own patch.

Are you sure this is correct for little endian guests? I've only
desk-checked it rather than running a test program, but it looks
to me like you end up passing the wrong value to socket().

Also it seems rather involved since we swap things three times and
have an entirely new abi_* function. Either I'm completely confused
or it should be enough to just have

if (type == SOCK_PACKET) {
      protocol = tswap16(protocol);
}

works... sometime. In fact, work if target endianess is network endianess.

Looking more carefully at packet(7) this is actually the wrong
guard anyway. You need to check for
 (domain == AF_PACKET) || (type == SOCK_PACKET)

since SOCK_PACKET is the obsolete Linux 2.0 way of doing packet sockets.

Syscall arguments aren't generally passed in memory, they're
in registers (and if they were pased in memory for some architecture
then that arch would do a load-and-swap-from-memory in main.c).
So the value you see in do_socket() is always "the integer passed
as a syscall parameter, as a host-order integer".

So in this case, with a simple guest program:
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <netpacket/packet.h>
#include <net/ethernet.h>
#include <arpa/inet.h>

int main(void) {
   return socket(AF_PACKET, SOCK_RAW, htons(ETH_P_ALL));
}

you will find that do_socket() in QEMU is passed either 0x3 [if the
guest is bigendian and the guest htons() is a no-op] or 0x0300
[if the guest is littleendian]. Since what we want to pass to the
host socket() call is 0x3 if the host is bigendian and 0x0300 if
the host is little endian, this amounts to needing to do a 16 bit
byteswap if the host and guest are different endianness, which
is exactly what tswap16() does. I checked with i386-to-i386
that do_socket() gets passed 0x300 and we correctly send it
through to the host socket().

I agree.

But, in fact, for socketcall(), they are read from memory :

        static abi_long do_socketcall(int num, abi_ulong vptr)
        {
            abi_long ret;
            const int n = sizeof(abi_ulong);
        
            switch(num) {
            case SOCKOP_socket:
                {
                    abi_ulong domain, type, protocol;
        
                    if (get_user_ual(domain, vptr)
                        || get_user_ual(type, vptr + n)
                        || get_user_ual(protocol, vptr + 2 * n))
                        return -TARGET_EFAULT;
        
                    ret = do_socket(domain, type, protocol);
                }
                break;


So, I don't know if "tswap16()" is always correct. It works for
m68k-to-x86_64, but I don't understand how it can works for
i386-to-i386.

Your opinion ?

Yes, this is because socketcall is weird. The actual kernel
implementation also reads them from memory:
  http://lxr.linux.no/#linux+v3.7.1/net/socket.c#L2443
as an array of unsigned longs. So as long as qemu also reads
them out of memory as an array of target abi_ulongs (which as
you can see we do) then we'll retrieve the same value (0x3 or
0x300) to pass to do_socket() as the guest program wrote into
its guest view of memory (since it should have written an
unsigned long). (What is happening here is that the guest
binary writes the protocol value to memory as an unsigned
long, so it goes in as 4 bytes in whichever order the guest uses;
qemu's get_user_ual() then rereads those 4 bytes, swapping
the value back so we get the same integer value the guest
program stored. Note that the guest doesn't write the protocol
argument as a 2 byte value!)

I would encourage you to write some simple test programs
and check them using strace (both of the native program and
of qemu running the program).

OK, I will... but I think we will fall back to my original patch ;-)

You'll need to provide test programs which work with that and
fail with the simple tswap16() approach first.
