* proc: switch /proc/irda/irnet to seq_file interfaceAlexey Dobriyan2008-04-292-39/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Probably interface misuse, because of the way iterating over hashbin is done. However! Printing of socket number ("IrNET socket %d - ", i++") made conversion to proper ->start/->next difficult enough to do blindly without hardware. Said that, please apply.

| | | | | | | | | | | | Remove proc_root export. Creation and removal works well if parent PDE is supplied as NULL -- it worked always that way.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If valid "parent" is passed to proc_create/remove_proc_entry(), then name of PDE should consist of only one path component, otherwise creation or or removal will fail. However, if NULL is passed as parent then create/remove accept full path as a argument. This is arbitrary restriction -- all infrastructure is in place. So, patch allows the following to succeed: create_proc_entry("foo/bar", 0, pde_baz); remove_proc_entry("baz/foo/bar", &proc_root); Also makes the following to behave identically: create_proc_entry("foo/bar", 0, NULL); create_proc_entry("foo/bar", 0, &proc_root); Discrepancy noticed by Den Lunev (IIRC).

* procfs: mem permission cleanupRoland McGrath2008-04-291-9/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This cleans up the permission checks done for /proc/PID/mem i/o calls. It puts all the logic in a new function, check_mem_permission(). The old code repeated the (!MAY_PTRACE(task) || !ptrace_may_attach(task)) magical expression multiple times. The new function does all that work in one place, with clear comments. The old code called security_ptrace() twice on successful checks, once in MAY_PTRACE() and once in __ptrace_may_attach(). Now it's only called once, and only if all other checks have succeeded.

* procfs task exe symlinkMatt Helsley2008-04-2912-81/+157
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel implements readlink of /proc/pid/exe by getting the file from the first executable VMA. Then the path to the file is reconstructed and reported as the result. Because of the VMA walk the code is slightly different on nommu systems. This patch avoids separate /proc/pid/exe code on nommu systems. Instead of walking the VMAs to find the first executable file-backed VMA we store a reference to the exec'd file in the mm_struct. That reference would prevent the filesystem holding the executable file from being unmounted even after unmapping the VMAs. So we track the number of VM_EXECUTABLE VMAs and drop the new reference when the last one is unmapped. This avoids pinning the mounted filesystem.

* keys: don't generate user and user session keyrings unless they're accessedDavid Howells2008-04-297-145/+96
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't generate the per-UID user and user session keyrings unless they're explicitly accessed. This solves a problem during a login process whereby set*uid() is called before the SELinux PAM module, resulting in the per-UID keyrings having the wrong security labels. This also cures the problem of multiple per-UID keyrings sometimes appearing due to PAM modules (including pam_keyinit) setuiding and causing user_structs to come into and go out of existence whilst the session keyring pins the user keyring. This is achieved by first searching for extant per-UID keyrings before inventing new ones. The serial bound argument is also dropped from find_keyring_by_name() as it's not currently made use of (setting it to 0 disables the feature).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a keyctl() function to get the security label of a key. The following is added to Documentation/keys.txt: (*) Get the LSM security context attached to a key. long keyctl(KEYCTL_GET_SECURITY, key_serial_t key, char *buffer, size_t buflen) This function returns a string that represents the LSM security context attached to a key in the buffer provided. Unless there's an error, it always returns the amount of data it could produce, even if that's too big for the buffer, but it won't copy more than requested to userspace. If the buffer pointer is NULL then no copy will take place. A NUL character is included at the end of the string if the buffer is sufficiently big. This is included in the returned count. If no LSM is in force then an empty string will be returned. A process must have view permission on the key for this function to be successful.

* keys: check starting keyring as part of searchKevin Coffman2008-04-291-4/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Check the starting keyring as part of the search to (a) see if that is what we're searching for, and (b) to check it is still valid for searching. The scenario: User in process A does things that cause things to be created in its process session keyring. The user then does an su to another user and starts a new process, B. The two processes now share the same process session keyring. Process B does an NFS access which results in an upcall to gssd. When gssd attempts to instantiate the context key (to be linked into the process session keyring), it is denied access even though it has an authorization key. The order of calls is: keyctl_instantiate_key() lookup_user_key() (the default: case) search_process_keyrings(current) search_process_keyrings(rka->context) (recursive call) keyring_search_aux() keyring_search_aux() verifies the keys and keyrings underneath the top-level keyring it is given, but that top-level keyring is neither fully validated nor checked to see if it is the thing being searched for.

* ipmi: run to completion fixesCorey Minyard2008-04-294-45/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The "run_to_completion" mode was somewhat broken. Locks need to be avoided in run_to_completion mode, and it shouldn't be used by normal users, just internally for panic situations. This patch removes locks in run_to_completion mode and removes the user call for setting the mode. The only user was the poweroff code, but it was easily converted to use the polling interface.

* ipc: sysvsem: refuse clone(CLONE_SYSVSEM|CLONE_NEWIPC)Serge E. Hallyn2008-04-291-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | CLONE_NEWIPC|CLONE_SYSVSEM interaction isn't handled properly. This can cause a kernel memory corruption. CLONE_NEWIPC must detach from the existing undo lists. Fix, part 3: refuse clone(CLONE_SYSVSEM|CLONE_NEWIPC). With unshare, specifying CLONE_SYSVSEM means unshare the sysvsem. So it seems reasonable that CLONE_NEWIPC without CLONE_SYSVSEM would just imply CLONE_SYSVSEM. However with clone, specifying CLONE_SYSVSEM means *share* the sysvsem. So calling clone(CLONE_SYSVSEM|CLONE_NEWIPC) is explicitly asking for something we can't allow. So return -EINVAL in that case. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: cleanups] Signed-off-by: Serge E.

* ipc: sysvsem: force unshare(CLONE_SYSVSEM) when CLONE_NEWIPCManfred Spraul2008-04-291-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sys_unshare(CLONE_NEWIPC) doesn't handle the undo lists properly, this can cause a kernel memory corruption. CLONE_NEWIPC must detach from the existing undo lists. Fix, part 2: perform an implicit CLONE_SYSVSEM in CLONE_NEWIPC. CLONE_NEWIPC creates a new IPC namespace, the task cannot access the existing semaphore arrays after the unshare syscall. Thus the task can/must detach from the existing undo list entries, too. This fixes the kernel corruption, because it makes it impossible that undo records from two different namespaces are in sysvsem.undo_list.

* ipc: sysvsem: implement sys_unshare(CLONE_SYSVSEM)Manfred Spraul2008-04-292-18/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sys_unshare(CLONE_NEWIPC) doesn't handle the undo lists properly, this can cause a kernel memory corruption. CLONE_NEWIPC must detach from the existing undo lists. Fix, part 1: add support for sys_unshare(CLONE_SYSVSEM) The original reason to not support it was the potential (inevitable?) confusion due to the fact that sys_unshare(CLONE_SYSVSEM) has the inverse meaning of clone(CLONE_SYSVSEM). Our two most reasonable options then appear to be (1) fully support CLONE_SYSVSEM, or (2) continue to refuse explicit CLONE_SYSVSEM, but always do it anyway on unshare(CLONE_SYSVSEM). This patch does (1). Changelog: Apr 16: SEH: switch to Manfred's alternative patch which removes the unshare_semundo() function which always refused CLONE_SYSVSEM.
