An nfsd exported file is opened/closed by the kernel causing the integrity imbalance message. Before a file is opened, there normally is permission checking, which is done in inode_permission(). However, as integrity checking requires a dentry and mount point, which is not available in inode_permission(), the integrity (permission) checking must be called separately. In order to detect any missing integrity checking calls, we keep track of file open/closes. ima_path_check() increments these counts and does the integrity (permission) checking. As a result, the number of calls to ima_path_check()/ima_file_free() should be balanced. An extra call to fput(), indicates the file could have been accessed without first calling ima_path_check(). In nfsv3 permission checking is done once, followed by multiple reads, which do an open/close for each read. The integrity (permission) checking call should be in nfsd_permission() after the inode_permission() call, but as there is no correlation between the number of permission checking and open calls, the integrity checking call should not increment the counters, but defer it to when the file is actually opened. This patch adds: - integrity (permission) checking for nfsd exported files in nfsd_permission(). - a call to increment counts for files opened by nfsd. This patch has been updated to return the nfs error types. Signed-off-by: NMimi Zohar <zohar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NJames Morris <jmorris@namei.org>

The IMA TCB policy is dangerous. A normal use can use all of a system's memory (which cannot be freed) simply by building and running lots of executables. The TCB policy is also nearly useless because logging in as root often causes a policy violation when dealing with utmp, thus rendering the measurements meaningless. There is no good fix for this in the kernel. A full TCB policy would need to be loaded in userspace using LSM rule matching to get both a protected and useful system. But, if too little is measured before userspace can load a real policy one again ends up with a meaningless set of measurements. One option would be to put the policy load inside the initrd in order to get it early enough in the boot sequence to be useful, but this runs into trouble with the LSM. For IMA to measure the LSM policy and the LSM policy loading mechanism it needs rules to do so, but we already talked about problems with defaulting to such broad rules.... IMA also depends on the files being measured to be on an FS which implements and supports i_version. Since the only FS with this support (ext4) doesn't even use it by default it seems silly to have any IMA rules by default. This should reduce the performance overhead of IMA to near 0 while still letting users who choose to configure their machine as such to inclue the ima_tcb kernel paramenter and get measurements during boot before they can load a customized, reasonable policy in userspace.

The address range size calculation inside local_flush_tlb_kernel_range() is being truncated by a too small size variable holder on 64-bit systems. The truncated size can result in an erroneous tlbsize check that means we sit spinning inside a loop trying to flush a hige number of TLB entries. This is for all intents and purposes a system hang. Fix by using an appropriately sized valiable to hold the size. [Ralf: Greg's original patch submission identified the issue and fixed one instance in tlb-r4k.c but there there were several more.

由 Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
Currently, userspace can fail to obtain the SAREA mapping (among other reasons) if it passes SAREA_MAX to drmAddMap without aligning it to the page size. This breaks for example on PowerPC with 64K pages and radeon despite the kernel radeon actually doing the right rouding in the first place. The way SAREA_MAX is defined with a bunch of ifdef's and duplicated between libdrm and the X server is gross, ultimately it should be retrieved by userspace from the kernel, but in the meantime, we have plenty of existing userspace built with bad values that need to work. This patch works around broken userspace by rounding the requested size in drm_addmap_core() of any SHM map to the page size. Since the backing memory for SHM maps is also allocated within addmap_core, there is no danger of adjacent memory being exposed due to the increased map size. The only side effect is that drivers that previously tried to create or access SHM maps using a size < PAGE_SIZE and failed (getting -EINVAL), will now succeed at the cost of a little bit more memory used if that happens to be when the map is created.

get_event_name uses sprintf to fill a buffer declared on the stack. It fills the buffer 2 bytes at a time. What the code doesn't take into account is that sprintf(buf, "%02x", data) actually writes 3 bytes. 2 bytes for the data and then it nul terminates the string. Since we declare buf to be 40 characters long and then we write 40 bytes of data into buf sprintf is going to write 41 characters. The fix is to leave room in buf for the nul terminator.

The futex code installs a read only mapping via get_user_pages_fast() even if the futex op function has to modify user space data. The eventual fault was fixed up by futex_handle_fault() which walked the VMA with mmap_sem held. After the cleanup patches which removed the mmap_sem dependency of the futex code commit 4dc5b7a36a49eff97050894cf1b3a9a02523717 (futex: clean up fault logic) removed the private VMA walk logic from the futex code. This change results in a stale RO mapping which is not fixed up. Instead of reintroducing the previous fault logic we set up the mapping in get_user_pages_fast() read/write for all operations which modify user space data. Also handle private futexes in the same way and make the current unconditional access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE) depend on the futex op.

This is the third respin of the patch posted yesterday to fix the error handling in cifs_follow_symlink. It also includes a fix for a bogus NULL pointer check in CIFSSMBQueryUnixSymLink that Jeff Moyer spotted. It's possible for CIFSSMBQueryUnixSymLink to return without setting target_path to a valid pointer. If that happens then the current value to which we're initializing this pointer could cause an oops when it's kfree'd. This patch is a little more comprehensive than the last patches. It reorganizes cifs_follow_link a bit for (hopefully) better readability. It should also eliminate the uneeded allocation of full_path on servers without unix extensions (assuming they can get to this point anyway, of which I'm not convinced). On a side note, I'm not sure I agree with the logic of enabling this query even when unix extensions are disabled on the client. It seems like that should disable this as well. But, changing that is outside the scope of this fix, so I've left it alone for now.
