sysctl: treewide: constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers

const qualify the struct ctl_table argument in the proc_handler function
signatures. This is a prerequisite to moving the static ctl_table
structs into .rodata data which will ensure that proc_handler function
pointers cannot be modified.

* Code formatting was adjusted in xfs_sysctl.c to comply with code

* The ctl_table argument in proc_watchdog_common was const qualified.
This is called from a proc_handler itself and is calling back into
another proc_handler, making it necessary to change it as part of the
proc_handler migration.

net: Remove ctl_table sentinel elements from several networking subsystems

This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the
empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which
will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link :
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/)

To avoid lots of small commits, this commit brings together network
changes from (as they appear in MAINTAINERS) LLC, MPTCP, NETROM NETWORK
LAYER, PHONET PROTOCOL, ROSE NETWORK LAYER, RXRPC SOCKETS, SCTP
PROTOCOL, SHARED MEMORY COMMUNICATIONS (SMC), TIPC NETWORK LAYER and
NETWORKING [IPSEC]

* Remove sentinel element from ctl_table structs.
* Replace empty array registration with the register_net_sysctl_sz call
in llc_sysctl_init
* Replace the for loop stop condition that tests for procname == NULL
with one that depends on array size in sctp_sysctl_net_register
* Remove instances where an array element is zeroed out to make it look
like a sentinel in xfrm_sysctl_init. This is not longer needed and is
safe after commit c899710fe7f9 ("networking: Update to
register_net_sysctl_sz") added the array size to the ctl_table
registration
* Use a table_size variable to keep the value of ARRAY_SIZE

networking: Update to register_net_sysctl_sz

Move from register_net_sysctl to register_net_sysctl_sz for all the
networking related files. Do this while making sure to mirror the NULL
assignments with a table_size of zero for the unprivileged users.

We need to move to the new function in preparation for when we change
SIZE_MAX to ARRAY_SIZE() in the register_net_sysctl macro. Failing to do
so would erroneously allow ARRAY_SIZE() to be called on a pointer. We
hold off the SIZE_MAX to ARRAY_SIZE change until we have migrated all
the relevant net sysctl registering functions to register_net_sysctl_sz
in subsequent commits.

An additional size function was added to the following files in order to
calculate the size of an array that is defined in another file:
include/net/ipv6.h
net/ipv6/icmp.c
net/ipv6/route.c
net/ipv6/sysctl_net_ipv6.c

sctp: sysctl: make extra pointers netns aware

Recently, a customer reported that from their container whose
net namespace is different to the host's init_net, they can't set
the container's net.sctp.rto_max to any value smaller than
init_net.sctp.rto_min.

For instance,
Host:
sudo sysctl net.sctp.rto_min
net.sctp.rto_min = 1000

Container:
echo 100 > /mnt/proc-net/sctp/rto_min
echo 400 > /mnt/proc-net/sctp/rto_max
echo: write error: Invalid argument

This is caused by the check made from this'commit 4f3fdf3bc59c
("sctp: add check rto_min and rto_max in sysctl")'
When validating the input value, it's always referring the boundary
value set for the init_net namespace.

Having container's rto_max smaller than host's init_net.sctp.rto_min
does make sense. Consider that the rto between two containers on the
same host is very likely smaller than it for two hosts.

So to fix this problem, as suggested by Marcelo, this patch makes the
extra pointers of rto_min, rto_max, pf_retrans, and ps_retrans point
to the corresponding variables from the newly created net namespace while
the new net namespace is being registered in sctp_sysctl_net_register.

safer.

As most handler just pass through the data to one of the common handlers
a lot of the changes are mechnical.

sctp: add support for Primary Path Switchover

This is a new feature defined in section 5 of rfc7829: "Primary Path
Switchover". By introducing a new tunable parameter:

Primary.Switchover.Max.Retrans (PSMR)

The primary path will be changed to another active path when the path
error counter on the old primary path exceeds PSMR, so that "the SCTP
sender is allowed to continue data transmission on a new working path
even when the old primary destination address becomes active again".

This patch is to add this tunable parameter, 'ps_retrans' per netns,
sock, asoc and transport. It also allows a user to change ps_retrans
per netns by sysctl, and ps_retrans per sock/asoc/transport will be
initialized with it.

The check will be done in sctp_do_8_2_transport_strike() when this
feature is enabled.

Note this feature is disabled by initializing 'ps_retrans' per netns
as 0xffff by default, and its value can't be less than 'pf_retrans'
when changing by sysctl.

v3->v4:
- add define SCTP_PS_RETRANS_MAX 0xffff, and use it on extra2 of
sysctl 'ps_retrans'.
- add a new entry for ps_retrans on ip-sysctl.txt.

addresses to the ULP as well as provide the

sctp: add pf_expose per netns and sock and asoc

As said in rfc7829, section 3, point 12:

The SCTP stack SHOULD expose the PF state of its destination
addresses to the ULP as well as provide the means to notify the
ULP of state transitions of its destination addresses from
active to PF, and vice versa. However, it is recommended that
an SCTP stack implementing SCTP-PF also allows for the ULP to be
kept ignorant of the PF state of its destinations and the
associated state transitions, thus allowing for retention of the
simpler state transition model of [RFC4960] in the ULP.

Not only does it allow to expose the PF state to ULP, but also
allow to ignore sctp-pf to ULP.

So this patch is to add pf_expose per netns, sock and asoc. And in
sctp_assoc_control_transport(), ulp_notify will be set to false if
asoc->expose is not 'enabled' in next patch.

It also allows a user to change pf_expose per netns by sysctl, and
pf_expose per sock and asoc will be initialized with it.

Note that pf_expose also works for SCTP_GET_PEER_ADDR_INFO sockopt,
to not allow a user to query the state of a sctp-pf peer address
when pf_expose is 'disabled', as said in section 7.3.

v1->v2:
- Fix a build warning noticed by Nathan Chancellor.
v2->v3:
- set pf_expose to UNUSED by default to keep compatible with old
applications.
v3->v4:
- add a new entry for pf_expose on ip-sysctl.txt, as Marcelo suggested.
- change this patch to 1/5, and move sctp_assoc_control_transport
change into 2/5, as Marcelo suggested.
- use SCTP_PF_EXPOSE_UNSET instead of SCTP_PF_EXPOSE_UNUSED, and
set SCTP_PF_EXPOSE_UNSET to 0 in enum, as Marcelo suggested.

proc/sysctl: add shared variables for range check

In the sysctl code the proc_dointvec_minmax() function is often used to
validate the user supplied value between an allowed range. This
function uses the extra1 and extra2 members from struct ctl_table as
minimum and maximum allowed value.

On sysctl handler declaration, in every source file there are some
readonly variables containing just an integer which address is assigned
to the extra1 and extra2 members, so the sysctl range is enforced.

The special values 0, 1 and INT_MAX are very often used as range
boundary, leading duplication of variables like zero=0, one=1,
int_max=INT_MAX in different source files:

$ git grep -E '\.extra[12].*&(zero|one|int_max)' |wc -l
248

Add a const int array containing the most commonly used values, some
macros to refer more easily to the correct array member, and use them
instead of creating a local one for every object file.

net: sctp: dynamically enable or disable pf state

As we all know, the value of pf_retrans >= max_retrans_path can
disable pf state. The variables of pf_retrans and max_retrans_path
can be changed by the userspace application.

Sometimes the user expects to disable pf state while the 2
variables are changed to enable pf state. So it is necessary to
introduce a new variable to disable pf state.

According to the suggestions from Vlad Yasevich, extra1 and extra2
are removed. The initialization of pf_enable is added.

net: sctp: check proc_dointvec result in proc_sctp_do_auth

When writing to the sysctl field net.sctp.auth_enable, it can well
be that the user buffer we handed over to proc_dointvec() via
proc_sctp_do_auth() handler contains something other than integers.

In that case, we would set an uninitialized 4-byte value from the
stack to net->sctp.auth_enable that can be leaked back when reading
the sysctl variable, and it can unintentionally turn auth_enable
on/off based on the stack content since auth_enable is interpreted
as a boolean.

Fix it up by making sure proc_dointvec() returned sucessfully.

net: sctp: propagate sysctl errors from proc_do* properly

sysctl handler proc_sctp_do_hmac_alg(), proc_sctp_do_rto_min() and
proc_sctp_do_rto_max() do not properly reflect some error cases
when writing values via sysctl from internal proc functions such
as proc_dointvec() and proc_dostring().

In all these cases we pass the test for write != 0 and partially
do additional work just to notice that additional sanity checks
fail and we return with hard-coded -EINVAL while proc_do*
functions might also return different errors. So fix this up by
simply testing a successful return of proc_do* right after
calling it.

This also allows to propagate its return value onwards to the user.
While touching this, also fix up some minor style issues.
