| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since nonboot CPUs are now disabled after tasks and devices have been frozen and the CPU hotplug infrastructure is used for this purpose, we need special CPU hotplug notifications that will help the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems distinguish normal CPU hotplug events from CPU hotplug events related to a system-wide suspend or resume operation in progress. This patch introduces such notifications and causes them to be used during suspend and resume transitions. It also changes all of the CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems to take these notifications into consideration (for now they are handled in the same way as the corresponding "normal" ones).

It turns out the problem is a reference count leak for the security context in net/sunrpc/auth_gss/svcauth_gss.c. The problem is that gss_write_init_verf() calls gss_svc_searchbyctx() which does a rsc_lookup() but never releases the reference to the context. There is another issue that rpc.svcgssd sets an "end of time" expiration for the context By adding a cache_put() call in gss_svc_searchbyctx(), and setting an expiration timeout in the downcall, cache_clean() does clean up the context and the module reference count now goes to zero after unmount. I also verified that if the context expires and then the client makes a new request, a new context is established. Here is the patch to fix the kernel, I will start a separate thread to discuss what expiration time should be set by rpc.svcgssd. Acked-by: "J.

* | | RPC: add wrapper for svc_reserve to account for checksumJeff Layton2007-05-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the kernel calls svc_reserve to downsize the expected size of an RPC reply, it fails to account for the possibility of a checksum at the end of the packet. If a client mounts a NFSv2/3 with sec=krb5i/p, and does I/O then you'll generally see messages similar to this in the server's ring buffer: RPC request reserved 164 but used 208 While I was never able to verify it, I suspect that this problem is also the root cause of some oopses I've seen under these conditions: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=227726 This is probably also a problem for other sec= types and for NFSv4. The large reserved size for NFSv4 compound packets seems to generally paper over the problem, however. This patch adds a wrapper for svc_reserve that accounts for the possibility of a checksum. It also fixes up the appropriate callers of svc_reserve to call the wrapper. For now, it just uses a hardcoded value that I determined via testing. That value may need to be revised upward as things change, or we may want to eventually add a new auth_op that attempts to calculate this somehow. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a good way to reliably determine the expected checksum length prior to actually calculating it, particularly with schemes like spkm3.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) Introduces a new method in 'struct dentry_operations'. This method called d_dname() might be called from d_path() to build a pathname for special filesystems. It is called without locks. Future patches (if we succeed in having one common dentry for all pipes/sockets) may need to change prototype of this method, but we now use : char *d_dname(struct dentry *dentry, char *buffer, int buflen); 2) Adds a dynamic_dname() helper function that eases d_dname() implementations 3) Defines d_dname method for sockets : No more sprintf() at socket creation. This is delayed up to the moment someone does an access to /proc/pid/fd/... 4) Defines d_dname method for pipes : No more sprintf() at pipe creation.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The L2CAP and HCI setsockopt() implementations have a small information leak that makes it possible to leak kernel stack memory to userspace.

A call to getsockopt() can now retrieve the leaked information. To fix this problem the stack buffer given to copy_from_user() must be initialized with the current settings.

* | | slab allocators: Remove SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL flagChristoph Lameter2007-05-072-4/+2

It is only supported by SLAB. I think its purpose was to have a callback after an object has been freed to verify that the state is the constructor state again? The callback is performed before each freeing of an object. I would think that it is much easier to check the object state manually before the free. That also places the check near the code object manipulation of the object. Also the SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL callback is only performed if the kernel was compiled with SLAB debugging on. If there would be code in a constructor handling SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL then it would have to be conditional on SLAB_DEBUG otherwise it would just be dead code. But there is no such code in the kernel. I think SLUB_DEBUG_INITIAL is too problematic to make real use of, difficult to understand and there are easier ways to accomplish the same effect (i.e. add debug code before kfree). There is a related flag SLAB_CTOR_VERIFY that is frequently checked to be clear in fs inode caches. Remove the pointless checks (they would even be pointless without removeal of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL) from the fs constructors. This is the last slab flag that SLUB did not support. Remove the check for unimplemented flags from SLUB.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce a replacement for the in-kernel portmapper client that supports all 3 versions of the rpcbind protocol. This code is not used yet. Original code by Groupe Bull updated for the latest kernel, with multiple bug fixes. Note that rpcb_clnt.c does not yet support registering via versions 3 and 4 of the rpcbind protocol. That is planned for a later patch.
