[PATCH net-next v2] net: validate SO_TXTIME clockid coming from userspace

From: Abhishek Chauhan
Date: Wed May 29 2024 - 14:32:19 EST


Currently there are no strict checks while setting SO_TXTIME
from userspace. With the recent development in skb->tstamp_type
clockid with unsupported clocks results in warn_on_once, which causes
unnecessary aborts in some systems which enables panic on warns.

Add validation in setsockopt to support only CLOCK_REALTIME,
CLOCK_MONOTONIC and CLOCK_TAI to be set from userspace.

Changes since v1
- Moved from net to net-next since
Fixes tag is available only on net-next
as mentioned by Martin
- Added direct link to design discussion as
mentioned by Willem.
- Parameter in the sockopt_validate_clockid
is of type __kernel_clockid_t so changed it from
int to __kernel_clockid_t as mentioned by
Willem.
- Added Acked-by tag.
