Hi Arjan,

could you address the comments Julian made about this?
http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0910.0/00852.html

	OK, you can add my signed-off line after changing
	'cmd > ...MAX + 1' to 'cmd > ...MAX' at both
	places, nf_sockopt_ops ranges are [optmin ... optmax)

	May be comments should be changed because:

	- i'm not the author but after ispection we do not see any holes,
	we do not want users to upgrade just for this change
	- the cmd checks are just to help code checking tools
	- the len checks should help programmers (may be BUG_ON is
	better, user does not deserve EINVAL for wrong set_arglen/get_arglen).
	Checks for *len and len are not needed.

	For example, for len checks this should be enough, before
	copy_from_user():

	in do_ip_vs_get_ctl check can be
	BUG_ON(get_arglen[GET_CMDID(cmd)] > sizeof(arg));

	in do_ip_vs_set_ctl check can be
	BUG_ON(set_arglen[SET_CMDID(cmd)] > sizeof(arg));

	Acked-by: Julian Anastasov [off-list ref]
Ping.

While I agree with Julian that the patch you suggest below
ought not to be necessary, I'm also happy with it if
cmd > IP_VS_SO_SET_MAX + 1 is changed to cmd > IP_VS_SO_SET_MAX.

Subject: [PATCH] ipvs: Add boundary check on ioctl arguments

The ipvs code has a nifty system for doing the size of ioctl command
copies; it defines an array with values into which it indexes the cmd
to find the right length.

Unfortunately, the ipvs code forgot to check if the cmd was in the
range that the array provides, allowing for an index outside of the
array, which then gives a "garbage" result into the length, which
then gets used for copying into a stack buffer.

Fix this by adding sanity checks on these as well as the copy size.
