Most of the ioctls to net protocols operates directly on userspace
argument (arg). Usually doing get_user()/put_user() directly in the
ioctl callback.  This is not flexible, because it is hard to reuse these
functions without passing userspace buffers.

Change the "struct proto" ioctls to avoid touching userspace memory and
operate on kernel buffers, i.e., all protocol's ioctl callbacks is
adapted to operate on a kernel memory other than on userspace (so, no
more {put,get}_user() and friends being called in the ioctl callback).

This changes the "struct proto" ioctl format in the following way:

    int                     (*ioctl)(struct sock *sk, int cmd,
-                                        unsigned long arg);
+                                        int *karg);

So, the "karg" argument, which is passed to the ioctl callback, is a
pointer allocated to kernel space memory (inside a function wrapper).
This buffer (karg) may contain input argument (copied from userspace in
a prep function) and it might return a value/buffer, which is copied
back to userspace if necessary. There is not one-size-fits-all format
(that is I am using 'may' above), but basically, there are three type of
ioctls:

1) Do not read from userspace, returns a result to userspace
2) Read an input parameter from userspace, and does not return anything
  to userspace
3) Read an input from userspace, and return a buffer to userspace.

The default case (1) (where no input parameter is given, and an "int" is
returned to userspace) encompasses more than 90% of the cases, but there
are two other exceptions. Here is a list of exceptions:

* Protocol RAW:
   * cmd = SIOCGETVIFCNT:
     * input and output = struct sioc_vif_req
   * cmd = SIOCGETSGCNT
     * input and output = struct sioc_sg_req
   * Explanation: for the SIOCGETVIFCNT case, userspace passes the input
     argument, which is struct sioc_vif_req. Then the callback populates
     the struct, which is copied back to userspace.

* Protocol RAW6:
   * cmd = SIOCGETMIFCNT_IN6
     * input and output = struct sioc_mif_req6
   * cmd = SIOCGETSGCNT_IN6
     * input and output = struct sioc_sg_req6

* Protocol PHONET:
  * cmd == SIOCPNADDRESOURCE | SIOCPNDELRESOURCE
     * input int (4 bytes)
  * Nothing is copied back to userspace.

For the exception cases, functions sock_sk_ioctl_inout() will
copy the userspace input, and copy it back to kernel space.

The wrapper that prepare the buffer and put the buffer back to user is
sk_ioctl(), so, instead of calling sk->sk_prot->ioctl(), the callee now
calls sk_ioctl(), which will handle all cases.

Does this handle all phonet ioctl cases correctly?

Notably pn_socket_ioctl has a SIOCPNGETOBJECT that reads and writes a u16.

I am checking my current checkpatch before sending the patch, but I am
not seeing the problems above.

My tree is at 44c026a73be8038 ("Linux 6.4-rc3"), and I am not able to
reproduce the problems above.

	v5/v5-0001-net-ioctl-Use-kernel-memory-on-protocol-ioctl-cal.patch has no obvious style problems and is ready for submission.

Let me investigate what options I am missing when running checkpatch.

We are not touching  "struct proto_ops" in this patch at all.  And
pn_socket_ioctl() is part of "struct proto_ops".

	const struct proto_ops phonet_stream_ops = {
		  ...
		  .ioctl          = pn_socket_ioctl,
	}

That said, all the "struct proto_ops" ioctl calls backs continue to use
"unsigned long arg" with userspace information, at least for now.

	struct proto_ops {
		...
		int             (*ioctl)     (struct socket *sock, unsigned int cmd,
					      unsigned long arg);
	}

This patch only changes the "struct proto".

Investigating these issues, I see 4 of the following messages:

	WARNING: line length of 84 exceeds 80 columns

This implies that checkpatch.pl is being called with
`--max-line-length=80` parameter, or, the system is using an older
version, before bdc48fa11e46f ("checkpatch/coding-style: deprecate
80-column warning").

Since I am not familiar with patchwork.hopto.org, I am not sure what is
the case. Do you know how can I find out?

Thanks!

The reference is to the checkpatch as referenced by patchwork:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/20230602163044.1820619-1-leitao@debian.org/

The 80 character limit is a soft limit. But also note the CHECK
statements on whitespace.

Ok. Perhaps good to call out in the commit message that this does not
convert all protocol ioctl callbacks.

Right. In order to enable the "CHECK" statments, we need to pass the
"--subjective" parameter to checpatch.pl

That said, I am able to reproduce the same output now, using the
following command line:

	$ scripts/checkpatch.pl --subjective --max-line-length=80

Sure, let me send a V6 with this information in the patch summary.

The different results visible on Patchwork are posted by a CI using
scripts hosted there:

  https://github.com/kuba-moo/nipa

If you are interested to know how checkpatch.pl is executed, you can
have a look there:


https://github.com/kuba-moo/nipa/blob/master/tests/patch/checkpatch/checkpatch.sh#L16

I guess what you need is the "--strict" argument:

>   $ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --strict --max-line-length=80 \
>       --ignore=COMMIT_LOG_LONG_LINE,MACRO_ARG_REUSE,ALLOC_SIZEOF_STRUCT,NO_AUTHOR_SIGN_OFF,GIT_COMMIT_ID,CAMELCASE \
>       -g HEAD

Cheers,
