Eric Biggers 2cedbdda01 net/smc: check for missing nlattrs in SMC_PNETID messages
[ Upstream commit d49baa7e12 ]

It's possible to crash the kernel in several different ways by sending
messages to the SMC_PNETID generic netlink family that are missing the
expected attributes:

- Missing SMC_PNETID_NAME => null pointer dereference when comparing
  names.
- Missing SMC_PNETID_ETHNAME => null pointer dereference accessing
  smc_pnetentry::ndev.
- Missing SMC_PNETID_IBNAME => null pointer dereference accessing
  smc_pnetentry::smcibdev.
- Missing SMC_PNETID_IBPORT => out of bounds array access to
  smc_ib_device::pattr[-1].

Fix it by validating that all expected attributes are present and that
SMC_PNETID_IBPORT is nonzero.

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
