[ Upstream commit c305c6ae79e2ce20c22660ceda94f0d86d639a82 ]

KCSAN reported a data-race [1]

While we can use READ_ONCE() on the read sides,
we need to make sure hh-&gt;hh_len is written last.

<id>urn:sha1:6da2ec56059c3c7a7e5f729e6349e74ace1e5c57</id>
<content type='text'>
The kmalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kmalloc_array(). This
patch replaces cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b, gfp)

with:
        kmalloc_array(a * b, gfp)

as well as handling cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b * c, gfp)

with:

        kmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)

as it's slightly less ugly than:

        kmalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        kmalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The tools/ directory was manually excluded, since it has its own
implementation of kmalloc().

The Coccinelle script used for this was:

It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *,
and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not.

Make these functions return void * and remove all the casts across
the tree, adding a (u8 *) cast only where the unsigned char pointer
was used directly, all done with the following spatch:

    @@
    expression SKB, LEN;
    typedef u8;
    identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum };

Note that the last part there converts from push(...)[0] to the
more idiomatic *(u8 *)push(...).

A common pattern with skb_put() is to just want to memcpy()
some data into the new space, introduce skb_put_data() for
this.

An spatch similar to the one for skb_put_zero() converts many
of the places using it:

RFC 2734 defines the datagram_size field in fragment encapsulation
headers thus:

    datagram_size:  The encoded size of the entire IP datagram.  The
    value of datagram_size [...] SHALL be one less than the value of
    Total Length in the datagram's IP header (see STD 5, RFC 791).

Accordingly, the eth1394 driver of Linux 2.6.36 and older set and got
this field with a -/+1 offset:

    ether1394_tx() /* transmit */
        ether1394_encapsulate_prep()
            hdr-&gt;ff.dg_size = dg_size - 1;

    ether1394_data_handler() /* receive */
        if (hdr-&gt;common.lf == ETH1394_HDR_LF_FF)
            dg_size = hdr-&gt;ff.dg_size + 1;
        else
            dg_size = hdr-&gt;sf.dg_size + 1;

Likewise, I observe OS X 10.4 and Windows XP Pro SP3 to transmit 1500
byte sized datagrams in fragments with datagram_size=1499 if link
fragmentation is required.

Only firewire-net sets and gets datagram_size without this offset.  The
result is lacking interoperability of firewire-net with OS X, Windows
XP, and presumably Linux' eth1394.  (I did not test with the latter.)
For example, FTP data transfers to a Linux firewire-net box with max_rec
smaller than the 1500 bytes MTU
  - from OS X fail entirely,
  - from Win XP start out with a bunch of fragmented datagrams which
    time out, then continue with unfragmented datagrams because Win XP
    temporarily reduces the MTU to 576 bytes.

So let's fix firewire-net's datagram_size accessors.

Note that firewire-net thereby loses interoperability with unpatched
firewire-net, but only if link fragmentation is employed.  (This happens
with large broadcast datagrams, and with large datagrams on several
FireWire CardBus cards with smaller max_rec than equivalent PCI cards,
and it can be worked around by setting a small enough MTU.)

The IP-over-1394 driver firewire-net lacked input validation when
handling incoming fragmented datagrams.  A maliciously formed fragment
with a respectively large datagram_offset would cause a memcpy past the
datagram buffer.

So, drop any packets carrying a fragment with offset + length larger
than datagram_size.

In addition, ensure that
  - GASP header, unfragmented encapsulation header, or fragment
    encapsulation header actually exists before we access it,
  - the encapsulated datagram or fragment is of nonzero size.

The maximum unicast datagram size /without/ link fragmentation is
4096 - 4 = 4092 (max IEEE 1394 async payload size at &gt;= S800 bus speed,
minus unfragmented encapssulation header).  Max broadcast datagram size
without fragmentation is 8 bytes less than that (due to GASP header).

The maximum datagram size /with/ link fragmentation is 0xfff = 4095
for unicast and broadcast.  This is because the RFC 2734 fragment
encapsulation header field for datagram size is only 12 bits wide.

<title>firewire: net: set initial MTU = 1500 unconditionally, fix IPv6 on some CardBus cards</title>

firewire-net, like the older eth1394 driver, reduced the initial MTU to
less than 1500 octets if the local link layer controller's asynchronous
packet reception limit was lower.

This is bogus, since this reception limit does not have anything to do
with the transmission limit.  Neither did this reduction affect the TX
path positively, nor could it prevent link fragmentation at the RX path.

Many FireWire CardBus cards have a max_rec of 9, causing an initial MTU
of 1024 - 16 = 1008.  RFC 2734 and RFC 3146 allow a minimum max_rec = 8,
which would result in an initial MTU of 512 - 16 = 496.  On such cards,
IPv6 could only be employed if the MTU was manually increased to 1280 or
more, i.e. IPv6 would not work without intervention from userland.

We now always initialize the MTU to 1500, which is the default according
to RFC 2734 and RFC 3146.

On a VIA VT6316 based CardBus card which was affected by this, changing
the MTU from 1008 to 1500 also increases TX bandwidth by 6 %.
RX remains unaffected.
