trafgen: proto: Allow to set field with variable length
It is quite tricky to set field value with a variable length (i.e. DNS query name), to make it possible the field needs to be added to header with 'len=0' in that case there will be no any payload allocation, but only while setting the field value the packet will be appended with a real length bytes and after the field needs to be relocated to the right place. Also add 'len' parameter to *_set_bytes(...) functoins to have better control over it. Signed-off-by: Vadim Kochan <vadim4j@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch>

*require* the fallback mechanism could typically incur a crash: drivers/firmware/dell_rbu.c and the drivers/leds/leds-lp55xx-common.c driver. Distributions enabling CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER_FALLBACK by default are obviously more exposed to this crash. The crash happens because after commit 5b029624948d ("firmware: do not use fw_lock for fw_state protection") and subsequent fix commit 5d47ec02c37ea6 ("firmware: Correct handling of fw_state_wait() return value") a race can happen between this cancelation and the firmware fw_state_wait_timeout() being woken up after a state change with which fw_load_abort() as that calls swake_up(). Upon error fw_state_wait_timeout() will also again call fw_load_abort() and trigger a null reference. At first glance we could just fix this with a !buf check on fw_load_abort() before accessing buf->fw_st, however there is a logical issue in having a state machine used for the fallback mechanism and preventing access from it once we abort as its inside the buf (buf->fw_st). The firmware_class.c code is setting the buf to NULL to annotate an abort has occurred. Replace this mechanism by simply using the state check instead. All the other code in place already uses similar checks for aborting as well so no further changes are needed. An oops can be reproduced with the new fw_fallback.sh fallback mechanism cancellation test. Either cancelling the fallback mechanism or the custom fallback mechanism triggers a crash. mcgrof@piggy ~/linux-next/tools/testing/selftests/firmware (git::20170111-fw-fixes)$ sudo ./fw_fallback.sh ./fw_fallback.sh: timeout works ./fw_fallback.sh: firmware comparison works ./fw_fallback.sh: fallback mechanism works [ this then sits here when it is trying the cancellation test ] Kernel log: test_firmware: loading 'nope-test-firmware.bin' misc test_firmware: Direct firmware load for nope-test-firmware.bin failed with error -2 misc test_firmware: Falling back to user helper BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000038 IP: _request_firmware+0xa27/0xad0 PGD 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP Modules linked in: test_firmware(E) ... etc ...
