[PATCH net-next v3 00/10] Some pktgen fixes/improvments
From: Peter Seiderer
Date: Mon Feb 03 2025 - 12:03:55 EST
While taking a look at '[PATCH net] pktgen: Avoid out-of-range in
get_imix_entries' ([1]) and '[PATCH net v2] pktgen: Avoid out-of-bounds access
in get_imix_entries' ([2], [3]) and doing some tests and code review I
detected that the /proc/net/pktgen/... parsing logic does not honour the
user given buffer bounds (resulting in out-of-bounds access).
This can be observed e.g. by the following simple test (sometimes the
old/'longer' previous value is re-read from the buffer):
$ echo add_device lo@0 > /proc/net/pktgen/kpktgend_0
$ echo "min_pkt_size 12345" > /proc/net/pktgen/lo\@0 && grep min_pkt_size /proc/net/pktgen/lo\@0
Params: count 1000 min_pkt_size: 12345 max_pkt_size: 0
Result: OK: min_pkt_size=12345
$ echo -n "min_pkt_size 123" > /proc/net/pktgen/lo\@0 && grep min_pkt_size /proc/net/pktgen/lo\@0
Params: count 1000 min_pkt_size: 12345 max_pkt_size: 0
Result: OK: min_pkt_size=12345
$ echo "min_pkt_size 123" > /proc/net/pktgen/lo\@0 && grep min_pkt_size /proc/net/pktgen/lo\@0
Params: count 1000 min_pkt_size: 123 max_pkt_size: 0
Result: OK: min_pkt_size=123
So fix the out-of-bounds access (and some minor findings) and add a simple
proc_net_pktgen selftest...
Regards,
Peter
Changes v2 -> v3:
- new patch: 'net: pktgen: fix ctrl interface command parsing'
- new patch: 'net: pktgen: fix mpls reset parsing'
- tools/testing/selftests/net/proc_net_pktgen.c:
- fix typo in change description ('v1 -> v1' and tyop)
- rename some vars to better match usage
add_loopback_0 -> thr_cmd_add_loopback_0
rm_loopback_0 -> thr_cmd_rm_loopback_0
wrong_ctrl_cmd -> wrong_thr_cmd
legacy_ctrl_cmd -> legacy_thr_cmd
ctrl_fd -> thr_fd
- add ctrl interface tests
Changes v1 -> v2:
- new patch: 'net: pktgen: fix hex32_arg parsing for short reads'
- new patch: 'net: pktgen: fix 'rate 0' error handling (return -EINVAL)'
- new patch: 'net: pktgen: fix 'ratep 0' error handling (return -EINVAL)'
- net/core/pktgen.c: additional fix get_imix_entries() and get_labels()
- tools/testing/selftests/net/proc_net_pktgen.c:
- fix tyop not vs. nod (suggested by Jakub Kicinski)
- fix misaligned line (suggested by Jakub Kicinski)
- enable fomerly commented out CONFIG_XFRM dependent test (command spi),
as CONFIG_XFRM is enabled via tools/testing/selftests/net/config
CONFIG_XFRM_INTERFACE/CONFIG_XFRM_USER (suggestex by Jakub Kicinski)
- add CONFIG_NET_PKTGEN=m to tools/testing/selftests/net/config
(suggested by Jakub Kicinski)
- add modprobe pktgen to FIXTURE_SETUP() (suggested by Jakub Kicinski)
- fix some checkpatch warnings (Missing a blank line after declarations)
- shrink line length by re-naming some variables (command -> cmd,
device -> dev)
- add 'rate 0' testcase
- add 'ratep 0' testcase
