Subject: [PATCH 06/17] saner iov_iter initialization primitives
From: Al Viro <viro@...iv.linux.org.uk>
iovec-backed iov_iter instances are assumed to satisfy several properties:
* no more than UIO_MAXIOV elements in iovec array
* total size of all ranges is no more than MAX_RW_COUNT
* all ranges pass access_ok().
The problem is, invariants of data structures should be established in the
primitives creating those data structures, not in the code using those
primitives. And iov_iter_init() violates that principle. For a while we
managed to get away with that, but once the use of iov_iter started to
spread, it didn't take long for shit to hit the fan - missed check in
sys_sendto() had introduced a roothole.
We _do_ have primitives for importing and validating iovecs (both native and
compat ones) and those primitives are almost always followed by shoving the
resulting iovec into iov_iter. Life would be considerably simpler (and safer)
if we combined those primitives with initializing iov_iter.
That gives us two new primitives - import_iovec() and compat_import_iovec().
Calling conventions:
iovec = iov_array;
err = import_iovec(direction, uvec, nr_segs,
ARRAY_SIZE(iov_array), &iovec,
&iter);
imports user vector into kernel space (into iov_array if it fits, allocated
if it doesn't fit or if iovec was NULL), validates it and sets iter up to
refer to it. On success 0 is returned and allocated kernel copy (or NULL
if the array had fit into caller-supplied one) is returned via iovec.
On failure all allocations are undone and -E... is returned. If the total
size of ranges exceeds MAX_RW_COUNT, the excess is silently truncated.
compat_import_iovec() expects uvec to be a pointer to user array of compat_iovec;
otherwise it's identical to import_iovec().
Finally, import_single_range() sets iov_iter backed by single-element iovec
covering a user-supplied range -
err = import_single_range(direction, address, size, iovec, &iter);
does validation and sets iter up. Again, size in excess of MAX_RW_COUNT gets
silently truncated.
Next commits will be switching the things up to use of those and reducing
the amount of iov_iter_init() instances.
