Add generic implementations of the old and really old uname system calls. Note that sh only implements sys_olduname but not sys_oldolduname, but I'm not going to bother with another ifdef for that special case. m32r implemented an old uname but never wired it up, so kill it, too.

On an architecture that supports 32-bit compat we need to override the reported machine in uname with the 32-bit value. Instead of doing this separately in every architecture introduce a COMPAT_UTS_MACHINE define in <asm/compat.h> and apply it directly in sys_newuname().

commit c69e8d9c (CRED: Use RCU to access another task's creds and to release a task's own creds) added non rcu_read_lock() protected access to task creds of the target task in set_prio_one(). The comment above the function says: * - the caller must hold the RCU read lock The calling code in sys_setpriority does read_lock(&tasklist_lock) but not rcu_read_lock(). This works only when CONFIG_TREE_PREEMPT_RCU=n. With CONFIG_TREE_PREEMPT_RCU=y the rcu_callbacks can run in the tick interrupt when they see no read side critical section. There is another instance of __task_cred() in sys_setpriority() itself which is equally unprotected. Wrap the whole code section into a rcu read side critical section to fix this quick and dirty. Will be revisited in course of the read_lock(&tasklist_lock) -> rcu crusade. Oleg noted further: This also fixes another bug here. find_task_by_vpid() is not safe without rcu_read_lock(). I do not mean it is not safe to use the result, just find_pid_ns() by itself is not safe. Usually tasklist gives enough protection, but if copy_process() fails it calls free_pid() lockless and does call_rcu(delayed_put_pid(). This means, without rcu lock find_pid_ns() can't scan the hash table safely.

This is a real fix for problem of utime/stime values decreasing described in the thread: http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/11/3/522 Now cputime is accounted in the following way: - {u,s}time in task_struct are increased every time when the thread is interrupted by a tick (timer interrupt). - When a thread exits, its {u,s}time are added to signal->{u,s}time, after adjusted by task_times(). - When all threads in a thread_group exits, accumulated {u,s}time (and also c{u,s}time) in signal struct are added to c{u,s}time in signal struct of the group's parent. So {u,s}time in task struct are "raw" tick count, while {u,s}time and c{u,s}time in signal struct are "adjusted" values. And accounted values are used by: - task_times(), to get cputime of a thread: This function returns adjusted values that originates from raw {u,s}time and scaled by sum_exec_runtime that accounted by CFS. - thread_group_cputime(), to get cputime of a thread group: This function returns sum of all {u,s}time of living threads in the group, plus {u,s}time in the signal struct that is sum of adjusted cputimes of all exited threads belonged to the group. The problem is the return value of thread_group_cputime(), because it is mixed sum of "raw" value and "adjusted" value: group's {u,s}time = foreach(thread){{u,s}time} + exited({u,s}time) This misbehavior can break {u,s}time monotonicity. Assume that if there is a thread that have raw values greater than adjusted values (e.g. interrupted by 1000Hz ticks 50 times but only runs 45ms) and if it exits, cputime will decrease (e.g. -5ms). To fix this, we could do: group's {u,s}time = foreach(t){task_times(t)} + exited({u,s}time) But task_times() contains hard divisions, so applying it for every thread should be avoided. This patch fixes the above problem in the following way: - Modify thread's exit (= __exit_signal()) not to use task_times(). It means {u,s}time in signal struct accumulates raw values instead of adjusted values. As the result it makes thread_group_cputime() to return pure sum of "raw" values. - Introduce a new function thread_group_times(*task, *utime, *stime) that converts "raw" values of thread_group_cputime() to "adjusted" values, in same calculation procedure as task_times(). - Modify group's exit (= wait_task_zombie()) to use this introduced thread_group_times(). It make c{u,s}time in signal struct to have adjusted values like before this patch. - Replace some thread_group_cputime() by thread_group_times(). This replacements are only applied where conveys the "adjusted" cputime to users, and where already uses task_times() near by it. (i.e. sys_times(), getrusage(), and /proc/<PID>/stat.) This patch have a positive side effect: - Before this patch, if a group contains many short-life threads (e.g. runs 0.9ms and not interrupted by ticks), the group's cputime could be invisible since thread's cputime was accumulated after adjusted: imagine adjustment function as adj(ticks, runtime), {adj(0, 0.9) + adj(0, 0.9) + ....} = {0 + 0 + ....} = 0. After this patch it will not happen because the adjustment is applied after accumulated. v2: - remove if()s, put new variables into signal_struct.

Functions task_{u,s}time() are called in pair in almost all cases. However task_stime() is implemented to call task_utime() from its inside, so such paired calls run task_utime() twice. It means we do heavy divisions (div_u64 + do_div) twice to get utime and stime which can be obtained at same time by one set of divisions. This patch introduces a function task_times(*tsk, *utime, *stime) to retrieve utime and stime at once in better, optimized way.

After a discussion we agreed that we can move proc_sid_connector from __set_special_pids to sys_setsid. We also agreed that it is sufficient to change the check from task_session(curr) != pid into err > 0, since if we don't change the session, this means we were already the leader and return -EPERM. One last thing: There is also daemonize(), and some people might want to get a notification in that case. Since daemonize() is only needed if a user space does kernel_thread this does not look important (and there seems to be no consensus if this connector should be called in daemonize). If we really want this, we can add proc_sid_connector to daemonize() in an additional patch (Scott?)

Make ->ru_maxrss value in struct rusage filled accordingly to rss hiwater mark. This struct is filled as a parameter to getrusage syscall. ->ru_maxrss value is set to KBs which is the way it is done in BSD systems. /usr/bin/time (gnu time) application converts ->ru_maxrss to KBs which seems to be incorrect behavior. Maintainer of this util was notified by me with the patch which corrects it and cc'ed. To make this happen we extend struct signal_struct by two fields. The first one is ->maxrss which we use to store rss hiwater of the task. The second one is ->cmaxrss which we use to store highest rss hiwater of all task childs. These values are used in k_getrusage() to actually fill ->ru_maxrss. k_getrusage() uses current rss hiwater value directly if mm struct exists.

Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events! In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging, monitoring, analysis facility. Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem 'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and less appropriate. All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion) The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well. Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and suggested a rename. User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to keep the size down.) This patch has been generated via the following script: FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config') sed -i \ -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \ -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \ -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \ -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \ -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \ -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \ $FILES for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g') mv $N $M done FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*) sed -i \ -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \ -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \ -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \ -e 's/counter/event/g' \ -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \ $FILES ... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches is the smallest: the end of the merge window. Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch. ( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but in case there's something left where 'counter' would be better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. ) Suggested-by: NStephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Acked-by: NPeter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Reviewed-by: NArjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: "David S.

This allows processes to override their early/late kill behaviour on hardware memory errors. Typically applications which are memory error aware is better of with early kill (see the error as soon as possible), all others with late kill (only see the error when the error is really impacting execution) There's a global sysctl, but this way an application can set its specific policy. We're using two bits, one to signify that the process stated its intention and that I also made the prctl future proof by enforcing the unused arguments are 0. The state is inherited to children. Note this makes us officially run out of process flags on 32bit, but the next patch can easily add another field. Manpage patch will be supplied separately.

We are wasting 2 words in signal_struct without any reason to implement task_pgrp_nr() and task_session_nr(). task_session_nr() has no callers since 2e2ba22e, we can remove it. task_pgrp_nr() is still (I believe wrongly) used in fs/autofsX and fs/coda. This patch reimplements task_pgrp_nr() via task_pgrp_nr_ns(), and kills __pgrp/__session and the related helpers. The change in drivers/char/tty_io.c is cosmetic, but hopefully makes sense anyway.

Revert commit 0c2d64fb because it causes (arguably poorly designed) existing userspace to spend interminable periods closing billions of not-open file descriptors. We could bring this back, with some sort of opt-in tunable in /proc, which defaults to "off". Peter's alanysis follows: : I spent several hours trying to get to the bottom of a serious : performance issue that appeared on one of our servers after upgrading to : 2.6.28. In the end it's what could be considered a userspace bug that : was triggered by a change in 2.6.28. Since this might also affect other : people I figured I'd at least document what I found here, and maybe we : can even do something about it: : : : So, I upgraded some of debian.org's machines to 2.6.28.1 and immediately : the team maintaining our ftp archive complained that one of their : scripts that previously ran in a few minutes still hadn't even come : close to being done after an hour or so. Downgrading to 2.6.27 fixed : that. : : Turns out that script is forking a lot and something in it or python or : whereever closes all the file descriptors it doesn't want to pass on. : That is, it starts at zero and goes up to ulimit -n/RLIMIT_NOFILE and : closes them all with a few exceptions. : : Turns out that takes a long time when your limit -n is now 2^20 (1048576). : : With 2.6.27.* the ulimit -n was the standard 1024, but with 2.6.28 it is : now a thousand times that. : : 2.6.28 included a patch titled "rlimit: permit setting RLIMIT_NOFILE to : RLIM_INFINITY" (0c2d64fb)[1] that : allows, as the title implies, to set the limit for number of files to : infinity. : : Closer investigation showed that the broken default ulimit did not apply : to "system" processes (like stuff started from init). In the end I : could establish that all processes that passed through pam_limit at one : point had the bad resource limit. : : Apparently the pam library in Debian etch (4.0) initializes the limits : to some default values when it doesn't have any settings in limit.conf : to override them.

At the moment, the times() system call will appear to fail for a period shortly after boot, while the value it want to return is between -4095 and -1. The same thing will also happen for the time() system call on 32-bit platforms some time in 2106 or so. On some platforms, such as x86, this is unavoidable because of the system call ABI, but other platforms such as powerpc have a separate error indication from the return value, so system calls can in fact return small negative values without indicating an error. On those platforms, force_successful_syscall_return() provides a way to indicate that the system call return value should not be treated as an error even if it is in the range which would normally be taken as a negative error number. This adds a force_successful_syscall_return() call to the time() and times() system calls plus their 32-bit compat versions, so that they don't erroneously indicate an error on those platforms whose system call ABI has a separate error indication. This will not affect anything on other platforms. Joakim Tjernlund added the fix for time() and the compat versions of time() and times(), after I did the fix for times().

The user_ns is moved from nsproxy to user_struct, so that a struct cred by itself is sufficient to determine access (which it otherwise would not be). Corresponding ecryptfs fixes (by David Howells) are here as well. Fix refcounting. The following rules now apply: 1. The task pins the user struct. 2. The user struct pins its user namespace. 3. The user namespace pins the struct user which created it. User namespaces are cloned during copy_creds(). Unsharing a new user_ns is no longer possible. (We could re-add that, but it'll cause code duplication and doesn't seem useful if PAM doesn't need to clone user namespaces). When a user namespace is created, its first user (uid 0) gets empty keyrings and a clean group_info. This incorporates a previous patch by David Howells. Here is his original patch description: >I suggest adding the attached incremental patch. It makes the following >changes: > > (1) Provides a current_user_ns() macro to wrap accesses to current's user > namespace. > > (2) Fixes eCryptFS. > > (3) Renames create_new_userns() to create_user_ns() to be more consistent > with the other associated functions and because the 'new' in the name is > superfluous. > > (4) Moves the argument and permission checks made for CLONE_NEWUSER to the > beginning of do_fork() so that they're done prior to making any attempts > at allocation. > > (5) Calls create_user_ns() after prepare_creds(), and gives it the new creds > to fill in rather than have it return the new root user.

Inaugurate copy-on-write credentials management. This uses RCU to manage the credentials pointer in the task_struct with respect to accesses by other tasks. A process may only modify its own credentials, and so does not need locking to access or modify its own credentials. A mutex (cred_replace_mutex) is added to the task_struct to control the effect of PTRACE_ATTACHED on credential calculations, particularly with respect to execve(). With this patch, the contents of an active credentials struct may not be changed directly; rather a new set of credentials must be prepared, modified and committed using something like the following sequence of events: struct cred *new = prepare_creds(); int ret = blah(new); if (ret < 0) { abort_creds(new); return ret; } return commit_creds(new); There are some exceptions to this rule: the keyrings pointed to by the active credentials may be instantiated - keyrings violate the COW rule as managing COW keyrings is tricky, given that it is possible for a task to directly alter the keys in a keyring in use by another task. To help enforce this, various pointers to sets of credentials, such as those in the task_struct, are declared const. The purpose of this is compile-time discouragement of altering credentials through those pointers. Once a set of credentials has been made public through one of these pointers, it may not be modified, except under special circumstances: (1) Its reference count may incremented and decremented. (2) The keyrings to which it points may be modified, but not replaced. The only safe way to modify anything else is to create a replacement and commit using the functions described in Documentation/credentials.txt (which will be added by a later patch). This patch and the preceding patches have been tested with the LTP SELinux testsuite. This patch makes several logical sets of alteration: (1) execve(). This now prepares and commits credentials in various places in the security code rather than altering the current creds directly. (2) Temporary credential overrides. do_coredump() and sys_faccessat() now prepare their own credentials and temporarily override the ones currently on the acting thread, whilst preventing interference from other threads by holding cred_replace_mutex on the thread being dumped. This will be replaced in a future patch by something that hands down the credentials directly to the functions being called, rather than altering the task's objective credentials. (3) LSM interface. A number of functions have been changed, added or removed: (*) security_capset_check(), ->capset_check() (*) security_capset_set(), ->capset_set() Removed in favour of security_capset(). (*) security_capset(), ->capset() New. This is passed a pointer to the new creds, a pointer to the old creds and the proposed capability sets. It should fill in the new creds or return an error. All pointers, barring the pointer to the new creds, are now const. (*) security_bprm_apply_creds(), ->bprm_apply_creds() Changed; now returns a value, which will cause the process to be killed if it's an error. (*) security_task_alloc(), ->task_alloc_security() Removed in favour of security_prepare_creds(). (*) security_cred_free(), ->cred_free() New. Free security data attached to cred->security. (*) security_prepare_creds(), ->cred_prepare() New. Duplicate any security data attached to cred->security. (*) security_commit_creds(), ->cred_commit() New. Apply any security effects for the upcoming installation of new security by commit_creds(). (*) security_task_post_setuid(), ->task_post_setuid() Removed in favour of security_task_fix_setuid(). (*) security_task_fix_setuid(), ->task_fix_setuid() Fix up the proposed new credentials for setuid(). This is used by cap_set_fix_setuid() to implicitly adjust capabilities in line with setuid() changes. Changes are made to the new credentials, rather than the task itself as in security_task_post_setuid(). (*) security_task_reparent_to_init(), ->task_reparent_to_init() Removed. Instead the task being reparented to init is referred directly to init's credentials. NOTE! This results in the loss of some state: SELinux's osid no longer records the sid of the thread that forked it. (*) security_key_alloc(), ->key_alloc() (*) security_key_permission(), ->key_permission() Changed. These now take cred pointers rather than task pointers to refer to the security context. (4) sys_capset(). This has been simplified and uses less locking. The LSM functions it calls have been merged. (5) reparent_to_kthreadd(). This gives the current thread the same credentials as init by simply using commit_thread() to point that way. (6) __sigqueue_alloc() and switch_uid() __sigqueue_alloc() can't stop the target task from changing its creds beneath it, so this function gets a reference to the currently applicable user_struct which it then passes into the sigqueue struct it returns if successful. switch_uid() is now called from commit_creds(), and possibly should be folded into that. commit_creds() should take care of protecting __sigqueue_alloc(). (7) [sg]et[ug]id() and co and [sg]et_current_groups. The set functions now all use prepare_creds(), commit_creds() and abort_creds() to build and check a new set of credentials before applying it. security_task_set[ug]id() is called inside the prepared section. This guarantees that nothing else will affect the creds until we've finished. The calling of set_dumpable() has been moved into commit_creds(). Much of the functionality of set_user() has been moved into commit_creds(). The get functions all simply access the data directly. (8) security_task_prctl() and cap_task_prctl(). security_task_prctl() has been modified to return -ENOSYS if it doesn't want to handle a function, or otherwise return the return value directly rather than through an argument. Additionally, cap_task_prctl() now prepares a new set of credentials, even if it doesn't end up using it. (9) Keyrings. A number of changes have been made to the keyrings code: (a) switch_uid_keyring(), copy_keys(), exit_keys() and suid_keys() have all been dropped and built in to the credentials functions directly. They may want separating out again later. (b) key_alloc() and search_process_keyrings() now take a cred pointer rather than a task pointer to specify the security context. (c) copy_creds() gives a new thread within the same thread group a new thread keyring if its parent had one, otherwise it discards the thread keyring. (d) The authorisation key now points directly to the credentials to extend the search into rather pointing to the task that carries them. (e) Installing thread, process or session keyrings causes a new set of credentials to be created, even though it's not strictly necessary for process or session keyrings (they're shared). (10) Usermode helper. The usermode helper code now carries a cred struct pointer in its subprocess_info struct instead of a new session keyring pointer. This set of credentials is derived from init_cred and installed on the new process after it has been cloned. call_usermodehelper_setup() allocates the new credentials and call_usermodehelper_freeinfo() discards them if they haven't been used. A special cred function (prepare_usermodeinfo_creds()) is provided specifically for call_usermodehelper_setup() to call. call_usermodehelper_setkeys() adjusts the credentials to sport the supplied keyring as the new session keyring. (11) SELinux. SELinux has a number of changes, in addition to those to support the LSM interface changes mentioned above: (a) selinux_setprocattr() no longer does its check for whether the current ptracer can access processes with the new SID inside the lock that covers getting the ptracer's SID. Whilst this lock ensures that the check is done with the ptracer pinned, the result is only valid until the lock is released, so there's no point doing it inside the lock. (12) is_single_threaded(). This function has been extracted from selinux_setprocattr() and put into a file of its own in the lib/ directory as join_session_keyring() now wants to use it too. The code in SELinux just checked to see whether a task shared mm_structs with other tasks (CLONE_VM), but that isn't good enough. We really want to know if they're part of the same thread group (CLONE_THREAD). (13) nfsd. The NFS server daemon now has to use the COW credentials to set the credentials it is going to use. It really needs to pass the credentials down to the functions it calls, but it can't do that until other patches in this series have been applied.
