From: Sowmini Varadhan <sowmini.varad...@oracle.com> On sparc, deleting established SAs (e.g., by restarting ipsec) results in unaligned access messages via xfrm_del_sa -> km_state_notify -> xfrm_send_state_notify().
Even though struct xfrm_usersa_info is aligned on 8-byte boundaries, netlink attributes are fundamentally only 4 byte aligned, and this cannot be changed for nla_data() that is passed up to userspace. As a result, the put_unaligned() macro needs to be used to set up potentially unaligned fields such as the xfrm_stats in copy_to_user_state() Signed-off-by: Sowmini Varadhan <sowmini.varad...@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Steffen Klassert <steffen.klass...@secunet.com> --- net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c | 5 ++++- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c b/net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c index a8de9e3..639e0d5 100644 --- a/net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c +++ b/net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c @@ -31,6 +31,7 @@ #if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_IPV6) #include <linux/in6.h> #endif +#include <asm/unaligned.h> static int verify_one_alg(struct nlattr **attrs, enum xfrm_attr_type_t type) { @@ -728,7 +729,9 @@ static void copy_to_user_state(struct xfrm_state *x, struct xfrm_usersa_info *p) memcpy(&p->sel, &x->sel, sizeof(p->sel)); memcpy(&p->lft, &x->lft, sizeof(p->lft)); memcpy(&p->curlft, &x->curlft, sizeof(p->curlft)); - memcpy(&p->stats, &x->stats, sizeof(p->stats)); + put_unaligned(x->stats.replay_window, &p->stats.replay_window); + put_unaligned(x->stats.replay, &p->stats.replay); + put_unaligned(x->stats.integrity_failed, &p->stats.integrity_failed); memcpy(&p->saddr, &x->props.saddr, sizeof(p->saddr)); p->mode = x->props.mode; p->replay_window = x->props.replay_window; -- 1.9.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
