* xen: honour VCPU availability on bootIan Campbell2009-04-021-10/+30
| | | | | | | | | If a VM is booted with offline VCPUs then unplug them during boot. Determining the availability of a VCPU requires access to XenStore which is not available at the point smp_prepare_cpus() is called, therefore we bring up all VCPUS initially and unplug the offline ones as soon as XenStore becomes available.

* xen: set _PAGE_NX in __supported_pte_mask before pagetable constructionJeremy Fitzhardinge2009-03-301-1/+6
| | | | | | | Some 64-bit machines don't support the NX flag in ptes. Check for NX before constructing the kernel pagetables. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | Impact: fixes crashing bug There's no particular problem with getting an empty cpu mask, so just shortcut-return if we get one. Avoids crash reported by Christophe Saout <christophe@saout.de> Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com>

* x86-64: non-paravirt systems always has PSE and PGEJeremy Fitzhardinge2009-03-301-1/+7
| | | | | | | | | A paravirtualized system may not have PSE or PGE available to guests, so they are not required features. However, without paravirt we can assume that any x86-64 implementation will have them available. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com>

* xen: mask XSAVE from cpuidJeremy Fitzhardinge2009-03-301-6/+44
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Xen leaves XSAVE set in cpuid, but doesn't allow cr4.OSXSAVE to be set. This confuses the kernel and it ends up crashing on an xsetbv instruction. At boot time, try to set cr4.OSXSAVE, and mask XSAVE out of cpuid it we can't. This will produce a spurious error from Xen, but allows us to support XSAVE if/when Xen does. This also factors out the cpuid mask decisions to boot time. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com>

* xen: make xen_load_gdt simplerJeremy Fitzhardinge2009-03-301-8/+6

| | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: allow preemption in apply_to_pte_range updates to init_mm Preemption is now allowed for lazy mmu mode, so don't disable it for the inner loop of apply_to_pte_range. This only applies when doing updates to init_mm; user pagetables are still modified under the pte lock, so preemption is disabled anyway.

| | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: fix lazy context switch API Pass the previous and next tasks into the context switch start end calls, so that the called functions can properly access the task state (esp in end_context_switch, in which the next task is not yet completely current).

* x86/paravirt: flush pending mmu updates on context switchJeremy Fitzhardinge2009-03-299-18/+42
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: allow preemption during lazy mmu updates If we're in lazy mmu mode when context switching, leave lazy mmu mode, but remember the task's state in TIF_LAZY_MMU_UPDATES. When we resume the task, check this flag and re-enter lazy mmu mode if its set. This sets things up for allowing lazy mmu mode while preemptible, though that won't actually be active until the next change.

| | | | | | | | | | | Impact: simplification, prepare for later changes Make lazy cpu mode more specific to context switching, so that it makes sense to do more context-switch specific things in the callbacks.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: simplification, robustness Make paravirt_lazy_mode() always return PARAVIRT_LAZY_NONE when in an interrupt. This prevents interrupt code from accidentally inheriting an outer lazy state, and instead does everything synchronously. Outer batched operations are left deferred.

* mm: disable preemption in apply_to_pte_rangeJeremy Fitzhardinge2009-03-291-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | Impact: bugfix Lazy mmu mode needs preemption disabled, so if we're apply to init_mm (which doesn't require any pte locks), then explicitly disable preemption. (Do it unconditionally after checking we've successfully done the allocation to simplify the error handling.) Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com>

The mmap_sem is no longer held outside of the futex_handle_fault() routine, yet numerous comments refer to it. The fshared argument is no an integer. I left some of these comments along as they are simply removed in future patches. Some of the commentary refering to futexes by virtual page mappings was not very clear, and completely accurate (as for shared futexes both the page and the offset are used to determine the key). For the purposes of the function description, just referring to "the futex" seems sufficient. With hashed futexes we now access the page after the hash-bucket is locked, and not only after it is enqueued.

When used in the netlabel list, it means "use CIPSO networking". A use case is when your local network speaks CIPSO and you want also to connect to the unlabeled Internet. This patch also add some documentation describing that. The patch also corrects an oops when setting a '' SMACK64 xattr to a file.

| * | | | | netlabel: Cleanup the Smack/NetLabel code to fix incoming TCP connectionsPaul Moore2009-03-284-118/+161
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch cleans up a lot of the Smack network access control code. The largest changes are to fix the labeling of incoming TCP connections in a manner similar to the recent SELinux changes which use the security_inet_conn_request() hook to label the request_sock and let the label move to the child socket via the normal network stack mechanisms. In addition to the incoming TCP connection fixes this patch also removes the smk_labled field from the socket_smack struct as the minor optimization advantage was outweighed by the difficulty in maintaining it's proper state.

If a legitimate need for this hook arises in the future it can always be reintroduced. Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <paul.moore@hp.com> Signed-off-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org>

Further code simplifications are likely in the future, but this patch was intended to be a simple, straight-up removal of the compat_net code.

| * | | | | netlabel: Label incoming TCP connections correctly in SELinuxPaul Moore2009-03-288-220/+360
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current NetLabel/SELinux behavior for incoming TCP connections works but only through a series of happy coincidences that rely on the limited nature of standard CIPSO (only able to convey MLS attributes) and the write equality imposed by the SELinux MLS constraints. The problem is that network sockets created as the result of an incoming TCP connection were not on-the-wire labeled based on the security attributes of the parent socket but rather based on the wire label of the remote peer. The issue had to do with how IP options were managed as part of the network stack and where the LSM hooks were in relation to the code which set the IP options on these newly created child sockets. While NetLabel/SELinux did correctly set the socket's on-the-wire label it was promptly cleared by the network stack and reset based on the IP options of the remote peer. This patch, in conjunction with a prior patch that adjusted the LSM hook locations, works to set the correct on-the-wire label format for new incoming connections through the security_inet_conn_request() hook. Besides the correct behavior there are many advantages to this change, the most significant is that all of the NetLabel socket labeling code in SELinux now lives in hooks which can return error codes to the core stack which allows us to finally get ride of the selinux_netlbl_inode_permission() logic which greatly simplfies the NetLabel/SELinux glue code. In the process of developing this patch I also ran into a small handful of AF_INET6 cleanliness issues that have been fixed which should make the code safer and easier to extend in the future.
