[PATCH v6 0/6] Introduce sendpage_ok() to detect misused sendpage in network related drivers

[PATCH v6 0/6] Introduce sendpage_ok() to detect misused sendpage in network related drivers

[Coly Li]

This series was original by a bug fix in nvme-over-tcp driver which only
checked whether a page was allocated from slab allcoator, but forgot to
check its page_count: The page handled by sendpage should be neither a
Slab page nor 0 page_count page.

As Sagi Grimberg suggested, the original fix is refind to a more common
inline routine:
    static inline bool sendpage_ok(struct page *page)
    {
    	return  (!PageSlab(page) && page_count(page) >= 1);
    }
If sendpage_ok() returns true, the checking page can be handled by the
zero copy sendpage method in network layer.

The first patch in this series introduces sendpage_ok() in header file
include/linux/net.h, the second patch fixes the page checking issue in
nvme-over-tcp driver, the third patch adds page_count check by using
sendpage_ok() in do_tcp_sendpages() as Eric Dumazet suggested, and all
rested patches just replace existing open coded checks with the inline
sendpage_ok() routine.

[PATCH v6 1/6] net: introduce helper sendpage_ok() in include/linux/net.h

[Coly Li]

The original problem was from nvme-over-tcp code, who mistakenly uses
kernel_sendpage() to send pages allocated by __get_free_pages() without
__GFP_COMP flag. Such pages don't have refcount (page_count is 0) on
tail pages, sending them by kernel_sendpage() may trigger a kernel panic
from a corrupted kernel heap, because these pages are incorrectly freed
in network stack as page_count 0 pages.

This patch introduces a helper sendpage_ok(), it returns true if the
checking page,
- is not slab page: PageSlab(page) is false.
- has page refcount: page_count(page) is not zero

All drivers who want to send page to remote end by kernel_sendpage()
may use this helper to check whether the page is OK. If the helper does
not return true, the driver should try other non sendpage method (e.g.
sock_no_sendpage()) to handle the page.

[PATCH v6 2/6] nvme-tcp: check page by sendpage_ok() before calling kernel_sendpage()

[Coly Li]

Currently nvme_tcp_try_send_data() doesn't use kernel_sendpage() to
send slab pages. But for pages allocated by __get_free_pages() without
__GFP_COMP, which also have refcount as 0, they are still sent by
kernel_sendpage() to remote end, this is problematic.

The new introduced helper sendpage_ok() checks both PageSlab tag and
page_count counter, and returns true if the checking page is OK to be
sent by kernel_sendpage().

This patch fixes the page checking issue of nvme_tcp_try_send_data()
with sendpage_ok(). If sendpage_ok() returns true, send this page by
kernel_sendpage(), otherwise use sock_no_sendpage to handle this page.

[PATCH v6 3/6] tcp: use sendpage_ok() to detect misused .sendpage

[Coly Li]

commit a10674bf2406 ("tcp: detecting the misuse of .sendpage for Slab
objects") adds the checks for Slab pages, but the pages don't have
page_count are still missing from the check.

Network layer's sendpage method is not designed to send page_count 0
pages neither, therefore both PageSlab() and page_count() should be
both checked for the sending page. This is exactly what sendpage_ok()
does.

This patch uses sendpage_ok() in do_tcp_sendpages() to detect misused
.sendpage, to make the code more robust.

[PATCH v6 4/6] drbd: code cleanup by using sendpage_ok() to check page for kernel_sendpage()

[Coly Li]

In _drbd_send_page() a page is checked by following code before sending
it by kernel_sendpage(),
        (page_count(page) < 1) || PageSlab(page)
If the check is true, this page won't be send by kernel_sendpage() and
handled by sock_no_sendpage().

This kind of check is exactly what macro sendpage_ok() does, which is
introduced into include/linux/net.h to solve a similar send page issue
in nvme-tcp code.

This patch uses macro sendpage_ok() to replace the open coded checks to
page type and refcount in _drbd_send_page(), as a code cleanup.

[PATCH v6 5/6] scsi: libiscsi: use sendpage_ok() in iscsi_tcp_segment_map()

[Coly Li]

In iscsci driver, iscsi_tcp_segment_map() uses the following code to
check whether the page should or not be handled by sendpage:
    if (!recv && page_count(sg_page(sg)) >= 1 && !PageSlab(sg_page(sg)))

The "page_count(sg_page(sg)) >= 1 && !PageSlab(sg_page(sg)" part is to
make sure the page can be sent to network layer's zero copy path. This
part is exactly what sendpage_ok() does.

This patch uses  use sendpage_ok() in iscsi_tcp_segment_map() to replace
the original open coded checks.
