Subject: [PATCH] af_unix: implement socket filter

From: Alban Crequy <alban.crequy@...labora.co.uk>

Linux Socket Filters can already be successfully attached and detached on unix
sockets with setsockopt(sockfd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_{ATTACH,DETACH}_FILTER, ...).
See: Documentation/networking/filter.txt

But the filter was never used in the unix socket code so it did not work. This
patch uses sk_filter() to filter buffers before delivery.

This short program demonstrates the problem on SOCK_DGRAM.

int main(void) {
  int i, j, ret;
  int sv[2];
  struct pollfd fds[2];
  char *message = "Hello world!";
  char buffer[64];
  struct sock_filter ins[32] = {{0,},};
  struct sock_fprog filter;

  socketpair(AF_UNIX, SOCK_DGRAM, 0, sv);

  for (i = 0 ; i < 2 ; i++) {
    fds[i].fd = sv[i];
    fds[i].events = POLLIN;
    fds[i].revents = 0;
  }

  for(j = 1 ; j < 13 ; j++) {

    /* Set a socket filter to truncate the message */
    memset(ins, 0, sizeof(ins));
    ins[0].code = BPF_RET|BPF_K;
    ins[0].k = j;
    filter.len = 1;
    filter.filter = ins;
    setsockopt(sv[1], SOL_SOCKET, SO_ATTACH_FILTER, &filter, sizeof(filter));

    /* send a message */
    send(sv[0], message, strlen(message) + 1, 0);

    /* The filter should let the message pass but truncated. */
    poll(fds, 2, 0);

    /* Receive the truncated message*/
    ret = recv(sv[1], buffer, 64, 0);
    printf("received %d bytes, expected %d\n", ret, j);
  }

    for (i = 0 ; i < 2 ; i++)
      close(sv[i]);

  return 0;
}
