Subject: [PATCH 4.19 49/55] genetlink: add CAP_NET_ADMIN test for multicast bind
Date: Mon, 11 Dec 2023 19:21:59 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231211182014.071875524@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20231211182012.263036284@linuxfoundation.org>

4.19-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ido Schimmel <idosch@nvidia.com>

This is a partial backport of upstream commit 4d54cc32112d ("mptcp:
avoid lock_fast usage in accept path"). It is only a partial backport
because the patch in the link below was erroneously squash-merged into
upstream commit 4d54cc32112d ("mptcp: avoid lock_fast usage in accept
path"). Below is the original patch description from Florian Westphal:

"
genetlink sets NL_CFG_F_NONROOT_RECV for its netlink socket so anyone can
subscribe to multicast messages.

rtnetlink doesn't allow this unconditionally,  rtnetlink_bind() restricts
bind requests to CAP_NET_ADMIN for a few groups.

This allows to set GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM flag on genl mcast groups to
mandate CAP_NET_ADMIN.

This will be used by the upcoming mptcp netlink event facility which
exposes the token (mptcp connection identifier) to userspace.
"
