[PATCH] strparser: remove any offset before parsing messages

From: Dominique Martinet
Date: Tue Aug 21 2018 - 08:52:05 EST


Offset is not well handled by strparser users right now.

Out of the current strparser users, we have:
- tls, that handles offset properly in parse and rcv callbacks
- kcm, that handles offset in rcv but not in parse
- bpf sockmap, that does not seem to handle offset anywhere

Calling pskb_pull() on new skb ensures that the offset will be 0
everywhere in practice, and in particular for the parse function,
unless the user modifies it themselves like tls does.

This fixes a bug which can be exhibited by implementing a simple kcm
parser that looks for the packet size in the first word of the packet,
and sending two such packets in a single write() call on the other side:
the second message will be cut at the length of the first message.
Since this is a stream protocol, all the following messages will also
be corrupt since it will start looking for the next offset at a wrong
position.

I haven't had any comment on v0, so here is what I had planned as
refactoring anyawy, but I'd *really* like some opinion on this as a
whole...

Also note that compiling bpf programs with libbcc is currently broken in
linus' master, see the fix thread here:

You can likely just revert cafa0010cd51 ("Raise the minimum required gcc
version to 4.6") localy meanwhile, or base the patch off 4.18.
