net/handshake: Create a NETLINK service for handling handshake requests When a kernel consumer needs a transport layer security session, it first needs a handshake to negotiate and establish a session. This negotiation can be done in user space via one of the several existing library implementations, or it can be done in the kernel. No in-kernel handshake implementations yet exist. In their absence, we add a netlink service that can: a. Notify a user space daemon that a handshake is needed. b. Once notified, the daemon calls the kernel back via this netlink service to get the handshake parameters, including an open socket on which to establish the session. c. Once the handshake is complete, the daemon reports the session status and other information via a second netlink operation. This operation marks that it is safe for the kernel to use the open socket and the security session established there. The notification service uses a multicast group. Each handshake mechanism (eg, tlshd) adopts its own group number so that the handshake services are completely independent of one another. The kernel can then tell via netlink_has_listeners() whether a handshake service is active and prepared to handle a handshake request. A new netlink operation, ACCEPT, acts like accept(2) in that it instantiates a file descriptor in the user space daemon's fd table. If this operation is successful, the reply carries the fd number, which can be treated as an open and ready file descriptor. While user space is performing the handshake, the kernel keeps its muddy paws off the open socket. A second new netlink operation, DONE, indicates that the user space daemon is finished with the socket and it is safe for the kernel to use again. The operation also indicates whether a session was established successfully. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

net/handshake: Take a long-lived file reference at submit handshake_nl_accept_doit() needs the file pointer backing req->hr_sk->sk_socket to survive the window between handshake_req_next() and the subsequent FD_PREPARE() and get_file(). The submit-side sock_hold() does not provide that. sk_refcnt keeps struct sock alive, but struct socket is owned by sock->file: when the consumer fputs the last file reference, sock_release() tears the socket down regardless of any sock_hold. Add an hr_file pointer to struct handshake_req and acquire an explicit reference on sock->file during handshake_req_submit(). handshake_complete() and handshake_req_cancel() release the reference on the completion-bit-winning path. The submit error path must also release the file reference, but after rhashtable insertion a concurrent handshake_req_cancel() can discover the request and race the error path. Gate the error-path cleanup -- sk_destruct restoration, fput, and request destruction -- with test_and_set_bit(HANDSHAKE_F_REQ_COMPLETED), the same serialization handshake_complete() and handshake_req_cancel() already use. When cancel has already claimed ownership, the submit error path returns without touching the request; socket teardown handles final destruction. The accept-side dereferences are not yet retargeted; that change comes in the next patch.

net/handshake: Drain pending requests at net namespace exit The arguments to list_splice_init() in handshake_net_exit() are reversed. The call moves the local empty "requests" list onto hn->hn_requests, leaving the local list empty, so the subsequent drain loop runs zero iterations. Pending handshake requests that had not yet been accepted are not torn down when the net namespace is destroyed; each one keeps a reference on a socket file and on the handshake_req allocation. Pass the source and destination in the documented order (list_splice_init(list, head) moves list onto head) so the pending list is transferred to the local scratch list and drained through handshake_complete(). Fixing the splice direction exposes a list-corruption race. After the splice each req->hr_list still has non-empty link pointers, threading the stack-local scratch list rather than hn_requests. A concurrent handshake_req_cancel() -- for example, from sunrpc's TLS timeout on a kernel socket whose netns reference was not taken -- finds the request through the rhashtable, calls remove_pending(), and sees !list_empty(&req->hr_list). __remove_pending_locked() then list_del_init()s an entry off the scratch list while the drain iterates, corrupting it. The same call arriving after the drain loop has run list_del() on an entry hits LIST_POISON instead. Have remove_pending() check HANDSHAKE_F_NET_DRAINING under hn_lock and report not-found when drain is in progress. The drain has already taken ownership; handshake_complete()'s existing test_and_set on HANDSHAKE_F_REQ_COMPLETED still arbitrates between drain and cancel for who calls the consumer's hp_done. Use list_del_init() rather than list_del() in the drain so req->hr_list does not carry LIST_POISON after drain releases the entry. The DRAINING guard in remove_pending() makes cancel return false, but cancel still falls through to test_and_set_bit on HANDSHAKE_F_REQ_COMPLETED and drops the request's hr_file reference. Without another pin, if that is the last reference, sk_destruct frees the request while it is still linked on the drain loop's local list. Pin each request's hr_file under hn_lock before releasing the list, and drop that drain pin after the loop finishes with the request.

net/handshake: hand off the pinned file reference to accept_doit handshake_req_next() removes the request from the per-net pending list and drops hn_lock before handshake_nl_accept_doit() reads req->hr_sk->sk_socket and dereferences sock->file (once in FD_PREPARE() and again in get_file()). In that window a consumer running tls_handshake_cancel() followed by sockfd_put() (svc_sock_free) or __fput_sync() (xs_reset_transport) releases sock->file. sock_release() then runs sock_orphan(), zeroing sk_socket, and frees the struct socket. The accept-side code either reads NULL through sk_socket or chases freed memory. The submit-side sock_hold() does not prevent this. sk_refcnt protects struct sock, but struct socket and sock->file are independently refcounted via the file descriptor the consumer owns. Pinning sk leaves sock and sock->file unprotected. Retarget the accept-side dereferences at req->hr_file, which was pinned at submit time, instead of req->hr_sk->sk_socket->file. Pinning on its own is not sufficient: a consumer that cancels between handshake_req_next() returning and accept_doit reaching FD_PREPARE() takes the !remove_pending() branch in handshake_req_cancel() and drops hr_file before the accept side takes its own reference. Hand off an additional file reference inside handshake_req_next(), under hn_lock, so the accept side operates on a reference that no concurrent handshake_req_cancel() can revoke. FD_PREPARE() consumes that handed-off reference, either by transferring it to the new fd in fd_publish() or by dropping it in the cleanup destructor on error; the explicit get_file() that previously balanced FD_PREPARE() is therefore redundant and goes away. Update handshake_req_cancel_test2 and _test3 to simulate the FD_PREPARE() consumption with an fput() so the kunit file-count assertions stay balanced.

net/handshake: Take a long-lived file reference at submit handshake_nl_accept_doit() needs the file pointer backing req->hr_sk->sk_socket to survive the window between handshake_req_next() and the subsequent FD_PREPARE() and get_file(). The submit-side sock_hold() does not provide that. sk_refcnt keeps struct sock alive, but struct socket is owned by sock->file: when the consumer fputs the last file reference, sock_release() tears the socket down regardless of any sock_hold. Add an hr_file pointer to struct handshake_req and acquire an explicit reference on sock->file during handshake_req_submit(). handshake_complete() and handshake_req_cancel() release the reference on the completion-bit-winning path. The submit error path must also release the file reference, but after rhashtable insertion a concurrent handshake_req_cancel() can discover the request and race the error path. Gate the error-path cleanup -- sk_destruct restoration, fput, and request destruction -- with test_and_set_bit(HANDSHAKE_F_REQ_COMPLETED), the same serialization handshake_complete() and handshake_req_cancel() already use.

net/handshake: Pass negative errno through handshake_complete() handshake_complete() declares status as unsigned int and tls_handshake_done() negates that value (-status) before handing it to the TLS consumer. Consumers match on negative errno constants -- xs_tls_handshake_done() has switch (status) { case 0: case -EACCES: case -ETIMEDOUT: lower_transport->xprt_err = status; break; default: lower_transport->xprt_err = -EACCES; } so the API as designed expects callers to pass positive errno values that the tlshd shim then negates. Three internal callers in handshake_nl_accept_doit(), the net-exit drain, and a kunit test follow kernel convention and pass negative errnos -- -EIO, -ETIMEDOUT, -ETIMEDOUT. The implicit conversion to unsigned int turns -ETIMEDOUT into 0xFFFFFF92; the subsequent -status in tls_handshake_done() wraps back to 110, the consumer's switch falls through, and the xprt reports -EACCES on what should be -ETIMEDOUT or -EIO. Fix the API rather than the call sites. The natural kernel convention is negative errno in, negative errno out. Change handshake_complete() and hp_done to take int status, drop the negation in tls_handshake_done(), and negate once in handshake_nl_done_doit() where status arrives from the wire as an unsigned netlink attribute. The three internal callers were already correct under that convention and need no change. At the same wire boundary, declare MAX_ERRNO as the netlink policy upper bound for HANDSHAKE_A_DONE_STATUS. Attribute validation rejects out-of-range values before handshake_nl_done_doit() runs, and negating a bounded u32 there stays within int range -- closing the UBSAN-visible signed- integer overflow that an unconstrained u32 would invoke.

A second new netlink operation, DONE, indicates that the user space daemon is finished with the socket and it is safe for the kernel to use again. The operation also indicates whether a session was established successfully. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

net/handshake: Take a long-lived file reference at submit handshake_nl_accept_doit() needs the file pointer backing req->hr_sk->sk_socket to survive the window between handshake_req_next() and the subsequent FD_PREPARE() and get_file(). The submit-side sock_hold() does not provide that. sk_refcnt keeps struct sock alive, but struct socket is owned by sock->file: when the consumer fputs the last file reference, sock_release() tears the socket down regardless of any sock_hold. Add an hr_file pointer to struct handshake_req and acquire an explicit reference on sock->file during handshake_req_submit(). handshake_complete() and handshake_req_cancel() release the reference on the completion-bit-winning path. The submit error path must also release the file reference, but after rhashtable insertion a concurrent handshake_req_cancel() can discover the request and race the error path. Gate the error-path cleanup -- sk_destruct restoration, fput, and request destruction -- with test_and_set_bit(HANDSHAKE_F_REQ_COMPLETED), the same serialization handshake_complete() and handshake_req_cancel() already use. When cancel has already claimed ownership, the submit error path returns without touching the request; socket teardown handles final destruction. The accept-side dereferences are not yet retargeted; that change comes in the next patch.

net/handshake: Create a NETLINK service for handling handshake requests When a kernel consumer needs a transport layer security session, it first needs a handshake to negotiate and establish a session. This negotiation can be done in user space via one of the several existing library implementations, or it can be done in the kernel. No in-kernel handshake implementations yet exist. In their absence, we add a netlink service that can: a. Notify a user space daemon that a handshake is needed. b. Once notified, the daemon calls the kernel back via this netlink service to get the handshake parameters, including an open socket on which to establish the session. c. Once the handshake is complete, the daemon reports the session status and other information via a second netlink operation. This operation marks that it is safe for the kernel to use the open socket and the security session established there. The notification service uses a multicast group. Each handshake mechanism (eg, tlshd) adopts its own group number so that the handshake services are completely independent of one another. The kernel can then tell via netlink_has_listeners() whether a handshake service is active and prepared to handle a handshake request. A new netlink operation, ACCEPT, acts like accept(2) in that it instantiates a file descriptor in the user space daemon's fd table. If this operation is successful, the reply carries the fd number, which can be treated as an open and ready file descriptor. While user space is performing the handshake, the kernel keeps its muddy paws off the open socket. A second new netlink operation, DONE, indicates that the user space daemon is finished with the socket and it is safe for the kernel to use again. The operation also indicates whether a session was established successfully. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
