tcp: fix tcp_set_congestion_control() use from bpf hook
[ Upstream commit 8d650cdedaabb33e85e9b7c517c0c71fcecc1de9 ]
Neal reported incorrect use of ns_capable() from bpf hook.
bpf_setsockopt(...TCP_CONGESTION...)
-> tcp_set_congestion_control()
-> ns_capable(sock_net(sk)->user_ns, CAP_NET_ADMIN)
-> ns_capable_common()
-> current_cred()
-> rcu_dereference_protected(current->cred, 1)
Accessing 'current' in bpf context makes no sense, since packets
are processed from softirq context.
As Neal stated : The capability check in tcp_set_congestion_control()
was written assuming a system call context, and then was reused from
a BPF call site.
The fix is to add a new parameter to tcp_set_congestion_control(),
so that the ns_capable() call is only performed under the right
context.
Fixes: 91b5b21c7c16 ("bpf: Add support for changing congestion control")
