bpf: net: Add SO_DETACH_REUSEPORT_BPF
|
|
now that all 32-bit archs have 64-bit time types, the values for the
time-related socket option macros can be treated as universal for
32-bit archs. the sys/socket.h mechanism for this predates
arch/generic and is instead in the top-level header.
x32, which does not use the new time64 values of the macros, already
has its own overrides, so this commit does not affect it.
|
|
these structures can now be defined generically in terms of endianness
and long size. previously, the 32-bit archs all shared a common
definition from the generic bits header, and each 64-bit arch had to
repeat the 64-bit version, with endian conditionals if the arch had
variants of each endianness.
I would prefer getting rid of the preprocessor conditionals for
padding and instead using unnamed bitfield members, like commit
9b2921bea1d5017832e1b45d1fd64220047a9802 did for struct timespec.
however, at present sendmsg, recvmsg, and recvmmsg need access to the
padding members by name to zero them. this could perhaps be cleaned up
in the future.
|
|
SO_RCVTIMEO and SO_SNDTIMEO already were, but only in aggregate with
SO_DEBUG and all of the other low/traditional options that varied per
arch. SO_TIMESTAMP* are newly overridable. the two groups have to be
done separately since mips64 and powerpc64 will override the former
but not the latter.
at some point this should be cleaned up to use bits headers more
idiomatically.
|
|
a _REDIR_TIME64 macro is introduced, which the arch's alltypes.h is
expected to define, to control redirection of symbol names for
interfaces that involve time_t and derived types. this ensures that
object files will only be linked to libc interfaces matching the ABI
whose headers they were compiled against.
along with time32 compat shims, which will be introduced separately,
the redirection also makes it possible for a single libc (static or
shared) to be used with object files produced with either the old
(32-bit time_t) headers or the new ones after 64-bit time_t switchover
takes place. mixing of such object files (or shared libraries) in the
same program will also be possible, but must be done with care; ABI
between libc and a consumer of the libc interfaces is guaranteed to
match by the the symbol name redirection, but pairwise ABI between
consumers of libc that define interfaces between each other in terms
of time_t is not guaranteed to match.
this change adds a dependency on an additional "GNU C" feature to the
public headers for existing 32-bit archs, which is generally
undesirable; however, the feature is one which glibc has depended on
for a long time, and thus which any viable alternative compiler is
going to need to provide. 64-bit archs are not affected, nor will
future 32-bit archs be, regardless of whether they are "new" on the
kernel side (e.g. riscv32) or just newly-added (e.g. a new sparc or
xtensa port). the same applies to newly-added ABIs for existing
machine-level archs.

SO_BINDTOIFINDEX behaves similar to SO_BINDTODEVICE, but takes a
network interface index as argument, rather than the network
interface name. see

placing the opening brace on the same line as the struct keyword/tag
is the style I prefer and seems to be the prevailing practice in more
recent additions.
these changes were generated by the command:
find include/ arch/*/bits -name '*.h' \
-exec sed -i '/^struct [^;{]*$/{N;s/\n/ /;}' {} +
and subsequently checked by hand to ensure that the regex did not pick
up any false positives.

compilers are free not to copy, or in some cases to clobber, padding
bytes in a structure. while it's an aliasing violation, and thus
undefined behavior, to copy or manipulate other sockaddr types using
sockaddr_storage, it seems likely that traditional code attempts to do
so, and the original intent of the sockaddr_storage structure was
probably to allow such usage.
in the interest of avoiding silent and potentially dangerous breakage,
ensure that there are no actual padding bytes in sockaddr_storage by
moving and adjusting the size of the __ss_padding member so that it
fits exactly.
this change also removes a silent assumption that the alignment of
long is equal to its size.

SOL_* macros are now synced with linux socket.h which is not a uapi
header and glibc did not have the macros either, but that has changed

new socket option so application can give advice about routing
path quality of connected udp sockets, added in linux commit
a87cb3e48ee86d29868d3f59cfb9ce1a8fa63314
|
|
previously, the only way the stopping condition could be met with
correct lengths in the headers invoked undefined behavior, adding
sizeof(struct cmsghdr) beyond the end of the cmsg buffer.
instead, compute and compare sizes rather than pointers.

these socket options are new in linux v3.19, introduced in commit
2c8c56e15df3d4c2af3d656e44feb18789f75837 and commit
89aa075832b0da4402acebd698d0411dcc82d03e
with SO_INCOMING_CPU the cpu can be queried on which a socket is
managed inside the kernel and optimize polling of large number of
sockets accordingly.
SO_ATTACH_BPF lets eBPF programs (created by the bpf syscall) to
be attached to sockets.
|
|
these are not pure syscall wrappers because they have to work around
kernel API bugs on 64-bit archs. the workarounds could probably be
made somewhat more efficient, but at the cost of more complexity. this
may be revisited later.

the imr_, imsf_, ip6_, ip6m_, ipi_, ipi6_, SCM_, and SOL_ prefixes are
not in the reserved namespace for this header. thus the constants and
structures using them need to be protected under appropriate feature
test macros.
this also affects some headers which are permitted to include
netinet/in.h, particularly netdb.h and arpa/inet.h.
the SOL_ macros are moved to sys/socket.h where they are in the
reserved namespace (SO*). they are still accessible via netinet/in.h
since it includes sys/socket.h implicitly (which is permitted).
the SCM_SRCRT macro is simply removed, since the definition used for
it, IPV6_RXSRCRT is not defined anywhere. it could be re-added, this
time in sys/socket.h, if the appropriate value can be determined;
however, given that the erroneous definition was not caught, it is
unlikely that any software actually attempts to use SCM_SRCRT.

|
missing protocol families based on current linux headers:
PF_RDS, PF_LLC, PF_CAN, PF_TIPC, PF_NFC
|
|
|
|
although a number is reserved for it, this option is not implemented
on Linux and does not work. defining it causes some applications to
use it, and subsequently break due to its failure.
|
|
|
|
it will be in the next version of POSIX
|
|
based on patch by Justin Cormack
|
|
|
|
to deal with the fact that the public headers may be used with pre-c99
compilers, __restrict is used in place of restrict, and defined
appropriately for any supported compiler. we also avoid the form
[restrict] since older versions of gcc rejected it due to a bug in the
original c99 standard, and instead use the form *restrict.
|
|
why does mips have to be gratuitously incompatible in every possible
imaginable way?
|
|
the kernel wrongly expects the cmsg length field to be size_t instead
of socklen_t. in order to work around the issue, we have to impose a
length limit and copy to a local buffer. the length limit should be
more than sufficient for any real-world use; these headers are only
used for passing file descriptors and permissions between processes
over unix sockets.
