[PATCH net-next 0/7] net: convert rawv6, ieee802154, phonet and tls getsockopt to sockopt_t
From: Breno Leitao
Date: Thu Jul 16 2026 - 09:09:06 EST
Now that sockopt_init_user() was already merged, builds a user-backed
sockopt_t from the __user pair. A getsockopt leaf can then take
a sockopt_t behind a thin __user wrapper: the wrapper builds it, calls
the leaf, and writes the length back to optlen. The leaf copies with
copy_to_iter() instead of copy_to_user().
Convert four more leaves the way udp and raw already were: ipv6 raw
(do_rawv6_getsockopt), ieee802154 dgram, phonet pep, and tls
(do_tls_getsockopt and its per-option helpers).
Converting phonet surfaced a pre-existing bug: pep_getsockopt() clamps the
length it reports but writes a full int with put_user(), overrunning an
optval buffer shorter than sizeof(int). It is fixed in its own patch, with
a Fixes: tag, before the phonet conversion, so it can be backported alone.
The last patch adds getsockopt_iter selftest fixtures for rawv6,
ieee802154, phonet and tls, checking the returned length and errno across
exact, oversized and short buffers, an unknown optname and a bad level.
