* [PATCH] io_uring/net: save msghdr->msg_control for retries

If the application sets ->msg_control and we have to later retry this
command, or if it got queued with IOSQE_ASYNC to begin with, then we
need to retain the original msg_control value. This is due to the net
stack overwriting this field with an in-kernel pointer, to copy it
in. Hitting that path for the second time will now fail the copy from
user, as it's attempting to copy from a non-user address.

I'm not 100% sure about the impact of this change.

But I think the logic we need is that only the
first __sys_sendmsg_sock() that returns > 0 should
see msg_control. A retry because of MSG_WAITALL should
clear msg_control[len] for a follow up __sys_sendmsg_sock().
And I fear the patch below would not clear it...

Otherwise the receiver/socket-layer will get the same msg_control twice,
which is unexpected.

Yes agree, if we do transfer some (but not all) data and WAITALL is set,
it should get cleared. I'll post a patch for that.

Note that it was also broken before, just differently broken. The most
likely outcome here was a full retry and now getting -EFAULT.

Yes, I can see that it was broken before...

I haven't checked myself, but I'm wondering about the recvmsg case,
I guess we would need to advance the msg_control buffer after each
iteration, in order to avoid overwritting the already received messages
on retry.

This all gets complicated with things like MSG_CTRUNC.

I guess it's too late to reject MSG_WAITALL together with msg_control
for io_recvmsg() because of compat reasons,
but as MSG_WAITALL is also processed in the socket layer, we could keep it
simple for now and skip the this retry logic:

         if (flags & MSG_WAITALL)
                 min_ret = iov_iter_count(&kmsg->msg.msg_iter);

This might become something similar to this,
but likely more complex, as would need to record kmsg->controllen == 0
condition already in io_recvmsg_prep:

         if (flags & MSG_WAITALL && kmsg->controllen == 0)
                 min_ret = iov_iter_count(&kmsg->msg.msg_iter);

Yep agree, I think this is the best way - ensure that once we transfer
data with cmsg, it's a one-shot kind of deal.

Do you want to cut a patch for that one?

No, sorry I'm busy with other stuff and not able to to do any testing...
