sysctl: handle error writing UINT_MAX to u32 fields We have scripts which write to certain fields on 3.18 kernels but this seems to be failing on 4.4 kernels. An entry which we write to here is xfrm_aevent_rseqth which is u32. echo 4294967295 > /proc/sys/net/core/xfrm_aevent_rseqth Commit 230633d109e3 ("kernel/sysctl.c: detect overflows when converting to int") prevented writing to sysctl entries when integer overflow occurs. However, this does not apply to unsigned integers. Heinrich suggested that we introduce a new option to handle 64 bit limits and set min as 0 and max as UINT_MAX. This might not work as it leads to issues similar to __do_proc_doulongvec_minmax. Alternatively, we would need to change the datatype of the entry to 64 bit. static int __do_proc_doulongvec_minmax(void *data, struct ctl_table { i = (unsigned long *) data; //This cast is causing to read beyond the size of data (u32) vleft = table->maxlen / sizeof(unsigned long); //vleft is 0 because maxlen is sizeof(u32) which is lesser than sizeof(unsigned long) on x86_64. Introduce a new proc handler proc_douintvec. Individual proc entries will need to be updated to use the new handler.

/*
* Register a set of sysctl names by calling register_sysctl_table
* with an initialised array of struct ctl_table's. An entry with
* NULL procname terminates the table. table->de will be
* set up by the registration and need not be initialised in advance.
*
* sysctl names can be mirrored automatically under /proc/sys. The
* procname supplied controls /proc naming.
*
* The table's mode will be honoured both for sys_sysctl(2) and
* proc-fs access.
*
* Leaf nodes in the sysctl tree will be represented by a single file
* under /proc; non-leaf nodes will be represented by directories. A
* null procname disables /proc mirroring at this node.
*
* sysctl(2) can automatically manage read and write requests through
* the sysctl table. The data and maxlen fields of the ctl_table
* struct enable minimal validation of the values being written to be
* performed, and the mode field allows minimal authentication.
*
* There must be a proc_handler routine for any terminal nodes
* mirrored under /proc/sys (non-terminals are handled by a built-in
* directory handler). Several default handlers are available to
* cover common cases.

[PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctl The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name. Which is pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented. I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register duplicate sysctl entries. So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future enhancments harder. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
