From: Li Li <dualli@google.com>
Introduce generic netlink messages into the binder driver so that the
Linux/Android system administration process can listen to important
events and take corresponding actions, like stopping a broken app from
attacking the OS by sending huge amount of spamming binder transactions.
The binder netlink sources and headers are automatically generated from
the corresponding binder_netlink YAML spec. Don't modify them directly.

+==============================================================
+Generic Netlink for the Android Binder Driver (Binder Netlink)
+==============================================================
+
+The Generic Netlink subsystem in the Linux kernel provides a generic way for
+the Linux kernel to communicate with the user space applications via binder
+driver. It is used to report binder transaction errors and warnings to user
+space administration process. The driver allows multiple binder devices and
+their corresponding binder contexts. Each context has an independent Generic
+Netlink for security reason. To prevent untrusted user applications from
+accessing the netlink data, the kernel driver uses unicast mode instead of
+multicast.
+
+Basically, the user space code uses the BINDER_NETLINK_CMD_REPORT_SETUP
+command to request what kind of binder transactions should be reported by
+the driver. The driver then echoes the attributes in a reply message to
+acknowledge the request. The BINDER_NETLINK_CMD_REPORT_SETUP command also
+registers the current user space process to receive the reports. When the
+user space process exits, the previous request will be reset automatically.
+
+Currently the driver reports these binder transaction errors and warnings.
+1. "FAILED" transactions that fail to reach the target process;
+2. "ASYNC_FROZEN" transactions that are delayed due to the target process
+being frozen by cgroup freezer; or
+3. "SPAM" transactions that are considered spamming according to existing
+logic in binder_alloc.c.
+
+When the specified binder transactions happen, the driver uses the
+BINDER_NETLINK_CMD_REPORT command to send a generic netlink message to the
+registered process, containing the payload defined in binder_netlink.yaml.
+
+More details about the flags, attributes and operations can be found at the
+the doc sections in Documentations/netlink/specs/binder_netlink.yaml and the
+kernel-doc comments of the new source code in binder.{h|c}.
+
+Using Binder Netlink
+--------------------
+
+The Binder Netlink can be used in the same way as any other generic netlink
+drivers. Userspace application uses a raw netlink socket to send commands
+to and receive packets from the kernel driver.
+
+.. note::
+ If the userspace application that talks to the driver exits, the kernel
+ driver will automatically reset the configuration to the default and
+ stop sending more reports, which would otherwise fail.
+
+Usage example (user space pseudo code):
+
+::
+ /*
+ * send() below is overloaded to pack netlink commands and attributes
+ * to nlattr/genlmsghdr/nlmsghdr and then send to the netlink socket.
+ *
+ * recv() below is overloaded to receive the raw netlink message from
+ * the netlink socket, parse nlmsghdr/genlmsghdr to find the netlink
+ * command and then return the nlattr payload.
+ */
+
+ // open netlink socket
+ int fd = socket(AF_NETLINK, SOCK_RAW, NETLINK_GENERIC);
+
+ // bind netlink socket
+ bind(fd, struct socketaddr);
+
+ // get the family id of the binder netlink
+ send(fd, CTRL_CMD_GETFAMILY, CTRL_ATTR_FAMILY_NAME,
+ BINDER_NETLINK_FAMILY_NAME);
+ void *data = recv(CTRL_CMD_NEWFAMILY);
+ if (!has_nla_type(data, CTRL_ATTR_FAMILY_ID)) {
+ // Binder Netlink isn't available on this version of Linux kernel
+ return;
+ }
+ __u16 id = nla(data)[CTRL_ATTR_FAMILY_ID];
+
+ // enable per-context binder report
+ send(fd, id, BINDER_NETLINK_CMD_REPORT_SETUP, "binder", 0,
+ BINDER_NETLINK_FLAG_FAILED | BINDER_NETLINK_FLAG_DELAYED);
+
+ // confirm the per-context configuration
+ data = recv(fd, BINDER_NETLINK_CMD_REPLY);
+ char *context = nla(data)[BINDER_NETLINK_A_CMD_CONTEXT];
+ __u32 pid = nla(data)[BINDER_NETLINK_A_CMD_PID];
+ __u32 flags = nla(data)[BINDER_NETLINK_A_CMD_FLAGS];
+
+ // set optional per-process report, overriding the per-context one
+ send(fd, id, BINDER_NETLINK_CMD_REPORT_SETUP, "binder", getpid(),
+ BINDER_NETLINK_FLAG_SPAM | BINDER_REPORT_OVERRIDE);
+
+ // confirm the optional per-process configuration
+ data = recv(fd, BINDER_NETLINK_CMD_REPLY);
+ context = nla(data)[BINDER_NETLINK_A_CMD_CONTEXT];
+ pid = nla(data)[BINDER_NETLINK_A_CMD_PID];
+ flags = nla(data)[BINDER_NETLINK_A_CMD_FLAGS];
+
+ // wait and read all binder reports
+ while (running) {
+ data = recv(fd, BINDER_NETLINK_CMD_REPORT);
+ auto *attr = nla(data)[BINDER_NETLINK_A_REPORT_XXX];
+
+ // process binder report
+ do_something(*attr);
+ }
+
+ // clean up
+ send(fd, id, BINDER_NETLINK_CMD_REPORT_SETUP, 0, 0);
+ send(fd, id, BINDER_NETLINK_CMD_REPORT_SETUP, getpid(), 0);
+ close(fd);

Thanks for renaming to "Binder Netlink" this seems much better IMO.
Also, I belive the documentation should also be binder_netlink.rst in
such case?

I think you need a Copyright for this. I'm not sure if it would also be

fwiw, the for_each stops when proc is NULL, so you can just break and
return proc everytime. e.g.:
mutex_lock(&binder_procs_lock);
hlist_for_each_entry(proc, &binder_procs, proc_node) {

break;

These are automatically generated from the yaml file. So let's just
keep them as is.
But it's a good suggestion to the owner of yaml parser.

It's sort of like adding the word sysfs to the name of a sysfs file. I mean the user visible name, not code references... s/binder_netlink/binder/ will clean this up..

I did consider that but unfortunately that would result in a conflicting binder.h in uapi header. Probably "binder_report" or "bindererr"?

What exactly is conflicting? The name of the header itself? You can set the uapi header name using the uapi-header property.
