      splice: sendfile() at once fails for big files · fcb27817
      Christophe Leroy authored
      commit 0ff28d9f upstream.
      
      Using sendfile with below small program to get MD5 sums of some files,
      it appear that big files (over 64kbytes with 4k pages system) get a
      wrong MD5 sum while small files get the correct sum.
      This program uses sendfile() to send a file to an AF_ALG socket
      for hashing.
      
      /* md5sum2.c */
      #include <stdio.h>
      #include <stdlib.h>
      #include <unistd.h>
      #include <string.h>
      #include <fcntl.h>
      #include <sys/socket.h>
      #include <sys/stat.h>
      #include <sys/types.h>
      #include <linux/if_alg.h>
      
      int main(int argc, char **argv)
      {
      	int sk = socket(AF_ALG, SOCK_SEQPACKET, 0);
      	struct stat st;
      	struct sockaddr_alg sa = {
      		.salg_family = AF_ALG,
      		.salg_type = "hash",
      		.salg_name = "md5",
      	};
      	int n;
      
      	bind(sk, (struct sockaddr*)&sa, sizeof(sa));
      
      	for (n = 1; n < argc; n++) {
      		int size;
      		int offset = 0;
      		char buf[4096];
      		int fd;
      		int sko;
      		int i;
      
      		fd = open(argv[n], O_RDONLY);
      		sko = accept(sk, NULL, 0);
      		fstat(fd, &st);
      		size = st.st_size;
      		sendfile(sko, fd, &offset, size);
      		size = read(sko, buf, sizeof(buf));
      		for (i = 0; i < size; i++)
      			printf("%2.2x", buf[i]);
      		printf("  %s\n", argv[n]);
      		close(fd);
      		close(sko);
      	}
      	exit(0);
      }
      
      Test below is done using official linux patch files. First result is
      with a software based md5sum. Second result is with the program above.

      After investivation, it appears that sendfile() sends the files by blocks
      of 64kbytes (16 times PAGE_SIZE). The problem is that at the end of each
      block, the SPLICE_F_MORE flag is missing, therefore the hashing operation
      is reset as if it was the end of the file.
      
      This patch adds SPLICE_F_MORE to the flags when more data is pending.
      
      With the patch applied, we get the correct sums:

      net: avoid NULL deref in inet_ctl_sock_destroy() · f79c83d6
      Eric Dumazet authored
      [ Upstream commit 8fa677d2 ]
      
      Under low memory conditions, tcp_sk_init() and icmp_sk_init()
      can both iterate on all possible cpus and call inet_ctl_sock_destroy(),
      with eventual NULL pointer.
