Currently, we set MSG_CTRUNC flag is we have no
msg_control buffer provided and SO_PASSCRED is set
or if we have pending SCM_RIGHTS.

For some reason we have no corresponding check for
SO_PASSSEC.

Is it a bugfix? If yes, it needs Fixes line.

There is no need in this ifdef, just test bit directly.

It's from 1da177e4c3 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2") times :)
I wasn't sure that it's correct to put the "Fixes" tag on such an old
and big commit. Will do. Thanks!

The problem is that even if the kernel is compiled without
CONFIG_SECURITY_NETWORK
userspace can still set the SO_PASSSEC option. IMHO it's better not to
set MSG_CTRUNC
if CONFIG_SECURITY_NETWORK is disabled, msg_control is not set but
SO_PASSSEC is enabled.
Because in this case SCM_SECURITY will never be sent. Please correct
me if I'm wrong.

Kind regards,
Alex

Can you describe what side effects this patch has ?

I think it could break some applications, who might not be able to
recover from MSG_CTRUNC in this case.
This should be documented, in order to avoid a future revert.

In any case, net-next is currently closed.

Yes, it can break applications but only those who use SO_PASSSEC
and not properly check MSG_CTRUNC. According to the recv(2) man:

       MSG_CTRUNC
              indicates that some control data was discarded due to lack
              of space in the buffer for ancillary data.

So, there is no specification about a particular SCM type. It seems more correct
to handle SCM_SECURITY the same way as SCM_RIGHTS / SCM_CREDENTIALS.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I don't know enough in this area to say if it is wrong or not.
My remark was due to the situation where user sets some bit which is
going to be ignored silently. It will be much cleaner do not set it
if CONFIG_SECURITY_NETWORK is disabled instead of masking its usage.

Hi Leon,

I agree with you, but IMHO then it looks more correct to return -EOPNOTSUPP on
setsockopt(fd, SO_PASSSEC, ...) if CONFIG_SECURITY_NETWORK is disabled.
But such a change may break things.

Okay, anyway I'll wait until net-next will be opened and present a
patch with a more
detailed description and Fixes tag. Speaking about this problem with
CONFIG_SECURITY_NETWORK
if you insist that it will be more correct then I'm ready to fix it too.

Thanks,
Alex

I won't insist on anything, most likely Eric will comment if you need to
fix it.
