Fred L. Templin c7dc89c0ac [IPV6]: Add RFC4214 support
This patch includes support for the Intra-Site Automatic Tunnel
Addressing Protocol (ISATAP) per RFC4214. It uses the SIT
module, and is configured using extensions to the "iproute2"
utility. The diffs are specific to the Linux 2.6.24-rc2 kernel
distribution.

This version includes the diff for ./include/linux/if.h which was
missing in the v2.4 submission and is needed to make the
patch compile. The patch has been installed, compiled and
tested in a clean 2.6.24-rc2 kernel build area.

I propose to give names to their constants to help people

I suppose this is 2.6.25 material, but if it's not (or the
naming seems poor/bad/awful), I can rework it against the

Gerrit Renker dcfbc7e97a [CCID2]: Remove misleading comment
This removes a comment which identifies an `issue' with dccp_write_xmit() where there is none.
The comment assumes it is possible that a packet is sent between the calls to

	ccid_hc_tx_send_packet(),
	dccp_transmit_skb(),
	ccid_hc_tx_packet_sent()

(in the above order) in dccp_write_xmit().

I think that this is impossible, since dccp_write_xmit() is always called under lock:

 * when called as dccp_write_xmit(sk, 1) from dccp_send_close(), the socket is locked
   (see code comment above dccp_send_close());
 * when called as dccp_write_xmit(sk, 0) from dccp_send_msg(), it is after lock_sock() has been called;
 * when called as dccp_write_xmit(sk, 0) from dccp_write_xmit_timer(), bh_lock_sock() has been called
   and the if/else statement has made sure that sk_lock.owner is not set;
 * there are no other places where dccp_write_xmit() is called.

Furthermore, the debug statement for printing the sequence number of the packet just sent has been
removed, since the entire list is being printed anyway and so the entry of that number appears last.

Gerrit Renker a302002516 [CCID2]: Remove redundant ack-counting variable
The code used two different variables to count Acks, one of them redundant.
This patch reduces the number of Ack counters to one.

The type of the Ack counter has also been changed to u32 (twice the range of int);
and the variable has been renamed into `packets_acked' - for consistency with
RFC 3465 (and similarly named variables are used by TCP and SCTP).

Lastly, a slightly less aggressive `maxincr' increment is used (for even Ack Ratios,
maxincr was Ack Ratio/2 + 1 instead of Ack Ratio/2).

Gerrit Renker 83399361c3 [CCID2]: Remove redundant synchronisation variable
This removes the synchronisation variable `ccid2hctx_sendwait', which is set to 1
when the CCID2 sender may send a new packet, and which is set to 0 otherwise

The variable is redundant, since it is only used in combination with the hc_tx_send_packet/
hc_tx_packet_sent function pair. Both functions are called under socket lock, so the
following happens when the CCID2 may send a new packet:

 * it sets sendwait = 1 in tx_send_packet and returns 0;
 * the subsequent call to tx_packet_sent clears the sendwait flag;
 * since tx_send_packet returns 0 if and only if sendwait == 1, the BUG_ON condition
   in tx_packet_sent is never satisfied, since that function is never called when
   tx_send_packet returns a value different from 0 (cf. dccp_write_xmit);
 * the call to tx_packet_sent clears the flag so that the condition "!sendwait" is
   true the next time tx_packet_sent is called.

In other words, it is sufficient to just return 0 / not-0 to synchronise tx_send_packet
and tx_packet_sent -- which is what the patch does.

Gerrit Renker da98e0b5d4 [CCID2]: Redundant debugging output
This reduces the amount of redundant debugging messages:

 * pipe/cwnd are printed in both tx_send_packet() and tx_packet_sent().
   Both functions are called immediately after one another, so one occurrence is sufficient.

 * Since tx_packet_sent() prints pipe/cwnd already, the second printk for pipe is redundant.

 * In tx_packet_sent() the check_sanity function is called twice (at the begin and at the end).

This patch simplifies the code by replacing the function with the assignment
it performs.

Furthermore, since ssthresh derives from cwnd and appears in many assignments and
comparisons, the type of ssthresh has also been changed to match that of cwnd.

Gerrit Renker 900bfed471 [CCID2]: Disable broken Ack Ratio adaptation algorithm
This comments out a problematic section comprising a half-finished algorithm:

 - The variable `ccid2hctx_ackloss' is never initialised to a value different from 0 and
   hence in fact is a read-only constant.
 - The `arsent' variable counts packets other than Acks (it is incremented for every packet),
   and there is no test for Ack Loss.
 - The concept of counting Acks as such leads to a complex calculation, and the calculation
   at the moment is inconsistent with this concept.
   The problem is that the number of Acks - rather than the number of windows - is counted,
   which leads to a complex (cubic/quadratic) expression - this is not even implemented.

In its current state, the commented-out algorithm interfers with normal processing by
changing Ack Ratio incorrectly, and at the wrong times.

A new algorithm is necessary, which will not necessarily use the same variables as used by
the unfinished one; hence the old variables have been removed.

Gerrit Renker d50ad163e6 [CCID2]: Deadlock and spurious timeouts when Ack Ratio > cwnd
This patch removes a bug in the current code. I agree with Andrea's comment
that there is a problem here but the way it is treated does not fix it.

The problem is that whenever Ack Ratio > cwnd, starvation/deadlock occurs:
 * the receiver will not send an Ack until (Ack Ratio - cwnd) data packets
   have arrived;
 * the sender will not send any data packet before the receipt of an Ack
   advances the send window.
The only way that the connection then progresses was via RTO timeout. In one
extreme case (bulk transfer), it was observed that this happened for every single
packet; i.e. hundreds of packets, each a RTO timeout of 1..3 seconds apart:
a transfer which normally would take a fraction of a second thus grew to
several minutes.

The solution taken by this approach is to observe the relation

                   "Ack Ratio <= cwnd"

by using the constraint (1) from RFC 4341, 6.1.2; i.e. set

                 Ack Ratio = ceil(cwnd / 2)

and update it whenever either Ack Ratio or cwnd change. This ensures that
the deadlock problem can not arise.

Gerrit Renker 3de5489f47 [CCID2]: Bug in reading Ack Vectors
In CCID2 the receiver-history is sorted in ascending order of sequence number,
but the processing of received Ack Vectors requires the list traversal in the
opposite direction.

The current code has a bug in this regard: the list traversal is upwards. As a
consequence, only Ack Vectors with a run length of 1 will pass, in all other
Ack Vectors the remaining (acked) sequence numbers are missed, and may later
falsely be identified as lost.

Note: This bug is only visible when Ack Ratio > 1, since otherwise the run
      lengths of Ack Vectors are 0.

Gerrit Renker 6d57b43bf8 [DCCP]: Remove redundant dependency on IP_DCCP
This cleans up the consequences of an earlier patch which
introduced the `if IP_DCCP' clause into net/dccp/Kconfig.

The CCID Kconfig menu is sourced within this clause; as a
consequence, all tests of type `depends on IP_DCCP' are now
redundant.

Gerrit Renker e333b3edc4 [DCCP]: Promote CCID2 as default CCID
This patch addresses the following problems:

 1. DCCP relies for its proper functioning on having at least one CCID module
    enabled (as in TCP plugable congestion control). Currently it is possible to
    disable both CCIDs and thus leave the DCCP module in a compiled, but entirely
    non-functional state: no sockets can be created when no CCID is available.
    Furthermore, the protocol is (again like TCP) not intended to be used without
    CCIDs. Last, a non-empty CCID list is needed for doing CCID feature negotiation.

 2. Internally the default CCID that is advertised by the Linux host is set to CCID2
    (DCCPF_INITIAL_CCID in include/linux/dccp.h). Disabling CCID2 in the Kconfig
    menu without changing the defaults leads to a failure `module not found' when
    trying to load the dccp module (which internally tries to load the default CCID).

 3. The specification (RFC 4340, sec. 10) treats CCID2 somewhat like a
    `minimum common denominator'; the specification says that:

    * "New connections start with CCID 2 for both endpoints"

    * "A DCCP implementation intended for general use, such as an implementation in a
       general-purpose operating system kernel, SHOULD implement at least CCID 2.
       The intent is to make CCID 2 broadly available for interoperability [...]"

    Providing CCID2 as minimum-required CCID (like Reno/Cubic in TCP) thus seems reasonable.

Hence this patch automatically selects CCID2 when DCCP is enabled. Documentation also added.

Discussions with Ian McDonald on this subject are gratefully acknowledged.

Gerrit Renker 8e8c71f1ab [DCCP]: Honour and make use of shutdown option set by user
This extends the DCCP socket API by honouring any shutdown(2) option set by the user.
The behaviour is, as much as possible, made consistent with the API for TCP's shutdown.

This patch exploits the information provided by the user via the socket API to reduce
processing costs:
 * if the read end is closed (SHUT_RD), it is not necessary to deliver to input CCID;
 * if the write end is closed (SHUT_WR), the same idea applies, but with a difference -
   as long as the TX queue has not been drained, we need to receive feedback to keep
   congestion-control rates up to date. Hence SHUT_WR is honoured only after the last
   packet (under congestion control) has been sent;
 * although SHUT_RDWR seems nonsensical, it is nevertheless supported in the same manner
   as for TCP (and agrees with test for SHUTDOWN_MASK in dccp_poll() in net/dccp/proto.c).

Furthermore, most of the code already honours the sk_shutdown flags (dccp_recvmsg() for
instance sets the read length to 0 if SHUT_RD had been called); CCID handling is now added
to this by the present patch.

There will also no longer be any delivery when the socket is in the final stages, i.e. when
one of dccp_close(), dccp_fin(), or dccp_done() has been called - which is fine since at
that stage the connection is its final stages.

Motivation and background are on http://www.erg.abdn.ac.uk/users/gerrit/dccp/notes/shutdown

A FIXME has been added to notify the other end if SHUT_RD has been set (RFC 4340, 11.7).

Note: There is a comment in inet_shutdown() in net/ipv4/af_inet.c which asks to "make
      sure the socket is a TCP socket". This should probably be extended to mean
      `TCP or DCCP socket' (the code is also used by UDP and raw sockets).

Gerrit Renker eb279b79c4 [CCID3]: Ignore trivial amounts of elapsed time
This patch fixes a previously undiscovered bug; the problem is in computing
the elapsed time as the time between `receiving' the packet (i.e. skb enters
CCID module) and sending feedback:

     - there is no layer-processing, queueing, or delay involved,
     - hence the elapsed time is in the order of 1 function call
     - this is in the dimension of maximally 50..100usec
     - which renders the use of elapsed time almost entirely useless.

The fix is simply to ignore such trivial amounts of elapsed time.

As a further advantage, the now useless elapsed_time field can be removed from
the socket, which reduces the socket structure by another four bytes.

Every 600 seconds (ip_rt_secret_interval), a softirq flush of the
whole ip route cache is triggered. On loaded machines, this can starve
softirq for many seconds and can eventually crash.

This patch moves this flush to a workqueue context, using the worker
we intoduced in commit 39c90ece75 (IPV4:
Convert rt_check_expire() from softirq processing to workqueue.)

Also, immediate flushes (echo 0 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/flush) are
using rt_do_flush() helper function, wich take attention to
rescheduling.

Next step will be to handle delayed flushes
("echo -1 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/flush" or "ip route flush cache")

Ilpo Järvinen 68f8353b48 [TCP]: Rewrite SACK block processing & sack_recv_cache use
Key points of this patch are:

  - In case new SACK information is advance only type, no skb
    processing below previously discovered highest point is done
  - Optimize cases below highest point too since there's no need
    to always go up to highest point (which is very likely still
    present in that SACK), this is not entirely true though
    because I'm dropping the fastpath_skb_hint which could
    previously optimize those cases even better. Whether that's
    significant, I'm not too sure.

Currently it will provide skipping by walking. Combined with
RB-tree, all skipping would become fast too regardless of window
size (can be done incrementally later).

Previously a number of cases in TCP SACK processing fails to
take advantage of costly stored information in sack_recv_cache,
most importantly, expected events such as cumulative ACK and new
hole ACKs. Processing on such ACKs result in rather long walks
building up latencies (which easily gets nasty when window is
huge). Those latencies are often completely unnecessary
compared with the amount of _new_ information received, usually
for cumulative ACK there's no new information at all, yet TCP
walks whole queue unnecessary potentially taking a number of
costly cache misses on the way, etc.!

Since the inclusion of highest_sack, there's a lot information
that is very likely redundant (SACK fastpath hint stuff,
fackets_out, highest_sack), though there's no ultimate guarantee
that they'll remain the same whole the time (in all unearthly
scenarios). Take advantage of this knowledge here and drop
fastpath hint and use direct access to highest SACKed skb as
a replacement.

Effectively "special cased" fastpath is dropped. This change
adds some complexity to introduce better coveraged "fastpath",
though the added complexity should make TCP behave more cache
friendly.

The current ACK's SACK blocks are compared against each cached
block individially and only ranges that are new are then scanned
by the high constant walk. For other parts of write queue, even
when in previously known part of the SACK blocks, a faster skip
function is used (if necessary at all). In addition, whenever
possible, TCP fast-forwards to highest_sack skb that was made
available by an earlier patch. In typical case, no other things
but this fast-forward and mandatory markings after that occur
making the access pattern quite similar to the former fastpath
"special case".

DSACKs are special case that must always be walked.

The local to recv_sack_cache copying could be more intelligent
w.r.t DSACKs which are likely to be there only once but that
is left to a separate patch.

Ilpo Järvinen 85cc391c0e [TCP]: non-FACK SACK follows conservative SACK loss recovery
Many assumptions that are true when no reordering or other
strange events happen are not a part of the RFC3517. FACK
implementation is based on such assumptions. Previously (before
the rewrite) the non-FACK SACK was basically doing fast rexmit
and then it times out all skbs when first cumulative ACK arrives,
which cannot really be called SACK based recovery :-).

RFC3517 SACK disables these things:
- Per SKB timeouts & head timeout entry to recovery
- Marking at least one skb while in recovery (RFC3517 does this
  only for the fast retransmission but not for the other skbs
  when cumulative ACKs arrive in the recovery)
- Sacktag's loss detection flavors B and C (see comment before
  tcp_sacktag_write_queue)

This does not implement the "last resort" rule 3 of NextSeg, which
allows retransmissions also when not enough SACK blocks have yet
arrived above a segment for IsLost to return true [RFC3517].

The implementation differs from RFC3517 in these points:
- Rate-halving is used instead of FlightSize / 2
- Instead of using dupACKs to trigger the recovery, the number
  of SACK blocks is used as FACK does with SACK blocks+holes
  (which provides more accurate number). It seems that the
  difference can affect negatively only if the receiver does not
  generate SACK blocks at all even though it claimed to be
  SACK-capable.
- Dupthresh is not a constant one. Dynamical adjustments include
  both holes and sacked segments (equal to what FACK has) due to
  complexity involved in determining the number sacked blocks
  between highest_sack and the reordered segment. Thus it's will
  be an over-estimate.

Implementation note:

tcp_clean_rtx_queue doesn't need a lost_cnt tweak because head
skb at that point cannot be SACKED_ACKED (nor would such
situation last for long enough to cause problems).

Ilpo Järvinen f577111302 [TCP]: Extend reordering detection to cover CA_Loss partially
This implements more accurately what is stated in sacktag's
overall comment:

  "Both of these heuristics are not used in Loss state, when
   we cannot account for retransmits accurately."

When CA_Loss state is entered, the state changer ensures that
undo_marker is only set if no TCPCB_RETRANS skbs were found,
thus having non-zero undo_marker in CA_Loss basically tells
that the R-bits still accurately reflect the current state
of TCP.

Herbert Xu f04e7e8d7f [IPSEC]: Replace x->type->{local,remote}_addr with flags
The functions local_addr and remote_addr are more than what they're

Herbert Xu fff6938880 [IPSEC]: Make sure idev is consistent with dev in xfrm_dst
Previously we took the device from the bottom route and idev from the
top route.  This is bad because idev may well point to a different
device.  This patch changes it so that we get the idev from the device
directly.

It also makes it an error if either dev or idev is NULL.  This is
consistent with the rest of the routing code which also treats these
cases as errors.

I've removed the err initialisation in xfrm6_policy.c because it
achieves no purpose and hid a bug when an initial version of this
patch neglected to set err to -ENODEV (fortunately the IPv4 version
warned about it).

Herbert Xu 352e512c32 [NET]: Eliminate duplicate copies of dst_discard
We have a number of copies of dst_discard scattered around the place
which all do the same thing, namely free a packet on the input or
output paths.

This patch deletes all of them except dst_discard and points all the
users to it.

The only non-trivial bit is decnet where it returns an error.
However, conceptually this is identical to the blackhole functions
used in IPv4 and IPv6 which do not return errors.  So they should
either all return errors or all return zero.  For now I've stuck with
the majority and picked zero as the return value.

It doesn't really matter in practice since few if any driver would
react differently depending on a zero return value or NET_RX_DROP.

Rolf Manderscheid a9e527e3f9 IPoIB: improve IPv4/IPv6 to IB mcast mapping functions
An IPoIB subnet on an IB fabric that spans multiple IB subnets can't
use link-local scope in multicast GIDs.  The existing routines that
map IP/IPv6 multicast addresses into IB link-level addresses hard-code
the scope to link-local, and they also leave the partition key field
uninitialised.  This patch adds a parameter (the link-level broadcast
address) to the mapping routines, allowing them to initialise both the
scope and the P_Key appropriately, and fixes up the call sites.

The next step will be to add a way to configure the scope for an IPoIB
interface.

The new API guarantees protection against the cpu-hotplug operation, but
it doesn't guarantee serialized access to any of the local data

Patrick McHardy 68365458a4 [NET]: rtnl_link: fix use-after-free
When unregistering the rtnl_link_ops, all existing devices using
the ops are destroyed. With nested devices this may lead to a
use-after-free despite the use of for_each_netdev_safe() in case
the upper device is next in the device list and is destroyed
by the NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier.

The easy fix is to restart scanning the device list after removing
a device. Alternatively we could add new devices to the front of
the list to avoid having dependant devices follow the device they
depend on. A third option would be to only restart scanning if
dev->iflink of the next device matches dev->ifindex of the current
one. For now this seems like the safest solution.

With this patch, the veth rtnl_link_ops unregistration can use
rtnl_link_unregister() directly since it now also handles destruction
of multiple devices at once.

Patrick McHardy 2948d2ebbb [NETFILTER]: bridge: fix double POST_ROUTING invocation
The bridge code incorrectly causes two POST_ROUTING hook invocations
for DNATed packets that end up on the same bridge device. This
happens because packets with a changed destination address are passed
to dst_output() to make them go through the neighbour output function
again to build a new destination MAC address, before they will continue
through the IP hooks simulated by bridge netfilter.

The resulting hook order is:
 PREROUTING	(bridge netfilter)
 POSTROUTING	(dst_output -> ip_output)
 FORWARD	(bridge netfilter)
 POSTROUTING	(bridge netfilter)

The deferred hooks used to abort the first POST_ROUTING invocation,
but since the only thing bridge netfilter actually really wants is
a new MAC address, we can avoid going through the IP stack completely
by simply calling the neighbour output function directly.

lockdep is worried about the different order here:

#1 (rose_neigh_list_lock){-+..}:
#3 (ax25_list_lock){-+..}:

#0 (linkfail_lock){-+..}:
#1 (rose_neigh_list_lock){-+..}:

#3 (ax25_list_lock){-+..}:
#0 (linkfail_lock){-+..}:

So, ax25_list_lock could be taken before and after linkfail_lock. 
I don't know if this three-thread clutch is very probable (or
possible at all), but it seems another bug reported by Bernard
("[...] system impossible to reboot with linux-2.6.24-rc5")
could have similar source - namely ax25_list_lock held by
ax25_kill_by_device() during ax25_disconnect(). It looks like the
only place which calls ax25_disconnect() this way, so I guess, it
isn't necessary.

This patch is breaking the lock for ax25_disconnect().

Pavel Emelyanov 9cd4002942 [NEIGH]: Fix race between neigh_parms_release and neightbl_fill_parms
The neightbl_fill_parms() is called under the write-locked tbl->lock
and accesses the parms->dev. The negh_parm_release() calls the
dev_put(parms->dev) without this lock. This creates a tiny race window
on which the parms contains potentially stale dev pointer.

To fix this race it's enough to move the dev_put() upper under the
tbl->lock, but note, that the parms are held by neighbors and thus can
live after the neigh_parms_release() is called, so we still can have a
parm with bad dev pointer.

I didn't find where the neigh->parms->dev is accessed, but still think
that putting the dev is to be done in a place, where the parms are
really freed. Am I right with that?

Paul Moore 02f1c89d6e [NET]: Clone the sk_buff 'iif' field in __skb_clone()
Both NetLabel and SELinux (other LSMs may grow to use it as well) rely
on the 'iif' field to determine the receiving network interface of
inbound packets.  Unfortunately, at present this field is not
preserved across a skb clone operation which can lead to garbage
values if the cloned skb is sent back through the network stack.  This
patch corrects this problem by properly copying the 'iif' field in
__skb_clone() and removing the 'iif' field assignment from
skb_act_clone() since it is no longer needed.

Also, while we are here, put the assignments in the same order as the
offsets to reduce cacheline bounces.

Gavin McCullagh 2072c228c9 [TCP]: use non-delayed ACK for congestion control RTT
When a delayed ACK representing two packets arrives, there are two RTT
samples available, one for each packet.  The first (in order of seq
number) will be artificially long due to the delay waiting for the
second packet, the second will trigger the ACK and so will not itself
be delayed.

According to rfc1323, the SRTT used for RTO calculation should use the
first rtt, so receivers echo the timestamp from the first packet in
the delayed ack.  For congestion control however, it seems measuring
delayed ack delay is not desirable as it varies independently of
congestion.

The patch below causes seq_rtt and last_ackt to be updated with any
available later packet rtts which should have less (and hopefully
zero) delack delay.  The rtt value then gets passed to
ca_ops->pkts_acked().

Where TCP_CONG_RTT_STAMP was set, effort was made to supress RTTs from
within a TSO chunk (!fully_acked), using only the final ACK (which
includes any TSO delay) to generate RTTs.  This patch removes these
checks so RTTs are passed for each ACK to ca_ops->pkts_acked().

For non-delay based congestion control (cubic, h-tcp), rtt is
sometimes used for rtt-scaling.  In shortening the RTT, this may make
them a little less aggressive.  Delay-based schemes (eg vegas, veno,
illinois) should get a cleaner, more accurate congestion signal,
particularly for small cwnds.  The congestion control module can
potentially also filter out bad RTTs due to the delayed ack alarm by
looking at the associated cnt which (where delayed acking is in use)
should probably be 1 if the alarm went off or greater if the ACK was
triggered by a packet.

Simon Horman 9cecd07c3f [IPV4] Fix ip=dhcp regression
David Brownell pointed out a regression in my recent "Fix ip command
line processing" patch. It turns out to be a fairly blatant oversight on
my part whereby ic_enable is never set, and thus autoconfiguration is
never enabled. Clearly my testing was broken :-(

The solution that I have is to set ic_enable to 1 if we hit
ip_auto_config_setup(), which basically means that autoconfiguration is
activated unless told otherwise. I then flip ic_enable to 0 if ip=off,
ip=none, ip=::::::off or ip=::::::none using ic_proto_name();

The incremental patch is below, let me know if a non-incremental version
is prepared, as I did as for the original patch to be reverted pending a
fix.

Simon Horman a6c05c3d06 [IPV4]: Fix ip command line processing.
Recently the documentation in Documentation/nfsroot.txt was
update to note that in fact ip=off and ip=::::::off as the
latter is ignored and the default (on) is used.

This was certainly a step in the direction of reducing confusion.
But it seems to me that the code ought to be fixed up so that
ip=::::::off actually turns off ip autoconfiguration.

This patch also notes more specifically that ip=on (aka ip=::::::on)
is the default.

Patrick McHardy fae718ddaf [NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack_ipv4: fix module parameter compatibility
Some users do "modprobe ip_conntrack hashsize=...". Since we have the
module aliases this loads nf_conntrack_ipv4 and nf_conntrack, the
hashsize parameter is unknown for nf_conntrack_ipv4 however and makes
it fail.

Allow to specify hashsize= for both nf_conntrack and nf_conntrack_ipv4.

Note: the nf_conntrack message in the ringbuffer will display an
incorrect hashsize since nf_conntrack is first pulled in as a
dependency and calculates the size itself, then it gets changed
through a call to nf_conntrack_set_hashsize().

nl_fib_input re-reuses incoming skb to send the reply. This means that this

Wei Yongjun 1ac70e7ad2 [NET]: Fix function put_cmsg() which may cause usr application memory overflow
When used function put_cmsg() to copy kernel information to user 
application memory, if the memory length given by user application is 
not enough, by the bad length calculate of msg.msg_controllen, 
put_cmsg() function may cause the msg.msg_controllen to be a large 
value, such as 0xFFFFFFF0, so the following put_cmsg() can also write 
data to usr application memory even usr has no valid memory to store 
this. This may cause usr application memory overflow.

int put_cmsg(struct msghdr * msg, int level, int type, int len, void *data)
{
    struct cmsghdr __user *cm
        = (__force struct cmsghdr __user *)msg->msg_control;
    struct cmsghdr cmhdr;
    int cmlen = CMSG_LEN(len);
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    int err;

    if (MSG_CMSG_COMPAT & msg->msg_flags)
        return put_cmsg_compat(msg, level, type, len, data);

    if (cm==NULL || msg->msg_controllen < sizeof(*cm)) {
        msg->msg_flags |= MSG_CTRUNC;
        return 0; /* XXX: return error? check spec. */
    }
    if (msg->msg_controllen < cmlen) {
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        msg->msg_flags |= MSG_CTRUNC;
        cmlen = msg->msg_controllen;
    }
    cmhdr.cmsg_level = level;
    cmhdr.cmsg_type = type;
    cmhdr.cmsg_len = cmlen;

    err = -EFAULT;
    if (copy_to_user(cm, &cmhdr, sizeof cmhdr))
        goto out;
    if (copy_to_user(CMSG_DATA(cm), data, cmlen - sizeof(struct cmsghdr)))
        goto out;
    cmlen = CMSG_SPACE(len);
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    If MSG_CTRUNC flags is set, msg->msg_controllen is less than 
CMSG_SPACE(len), "msg->msg_controllen -= cmlen" will cause unsinged int 
type msg->msg_controllen to be a large value.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    msg->msg_control += cmlen;
    msg->msg_controllen -= cmlen;
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    err = 0;
out:
    return err;
}

The same promble exists in put_cmsg_compat(). This patch can fix this 
problem.
