This is mainly intended to protect against local privilege escalations
through a rarely used feature so it is deliberately not namespaced.

Enforcement is only at the setsockopt level, this should be enough to
ensure that the tcp_authopt_needed static key never turns on.

No effort is made to handle disabling when the feature is already in
use.

READ_ONCE(sysctl_tcp_authopt)

Note that this test would still be racy, because another cpu might
change sysctl_tcp_authopt right after the read.

WRITE_ONCE(sysctl_tcp_authopt, val),  or even better:

if (val)
     cmpxchg(&sysctl_tcp_authopt, 0, val);

What meaningful races are possible here? This is a variable that changes 
from 0 to 1 at most once.

In theory if two processes attempt to assign "non-zero" at the same time 
then one will "win" and the other will get an error but races between 
userspace writing different values are possible for any sysctl. The 
solution seems to be "write sysctls from a single place".

All the checks are in sockopts - in theory if the sysctl is written on 
one CPU then a sockopt can still fail on another CPU until caches are 
flushed. Is this what you're worried about?

In theory doing READ_ONCE might incur a slight penalty on sockopt but 
not noticeable.

This would be useful if we did any sort of initialization here but we 
don't. Crypto is initialized somewhere completely different.

Two cpus can issue writes of 0 and 1 values at the same time.

Depending on scheduling writing the 0 can 'win' the race and overwrite
the value back to 0.

This is in clear violation of the claim you are making (that the
sysctl can only go once from 0 to 1)

Not at all. There is _no_ penalty using READ_ONCE(). Unless it is done
in a loop and this prevents some compiler optimization.

Please use WRITE_ONCE() and READ_ONCE() for all sysctl values used in
TCP stack (and elsewhere)

See all the silly patches we had recently.

Not clear why anyone would attempt to write 0, maybe to ensure that it's 
still disabled?

But you're right that userspace CAN do that and the kernel CAN misbehave 
in this scenario so it would be better to just make the changes you 
suggested.

What's the point of the cmpxchg? Since you're simply trying to prevent
sysctl_tcp_authopt from going back to zero, then the if clause
by itself is enough:

	if (val)
		WRITE_ONCE(sysctl_tcp_authopt, val);

Cheers,

Ack.

Original patch was doing something racy, I have not though about the
most efficient way to deal with it.
