Only two architectures use the OF node reference counting and reclaim bits. There is no need to compile it for the rest of the PowerPC platforms or for any of the other architectures. This patch makes iseries and pseries select CONFIG_OF_DYNAMIC, and makes it default to off for everything else. It is still safe to turn on CONFIG_OF_DYNAMIC on all architectures, it just isn't necessary. v2: Also select OF_DYNAMIC for PPC_CHROMA and MPC885ADS as reported by Michael Meuling Signed-off-by: NGrant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca> Acked-by: NDavid S.

When userspace needs to find a specific device, it currently isn't easy to resolve a /sys/devices/ path from a specific device tree node. Nor is it easy to obtain the compatible list for devices. This patch generalizes the code that inserts OF_* values into the uevent device attribute so that any device that is attached to an OF node will have that information exported to userspace. Without this patch only platform devices and some powerpc-specific busses have access to this data. The original function also creates a MODALIAS property for the compatible list, but that code has not been generalized into the common case because it has the potential to break module loading on a lot of bus types. Bus types are still responsible for their own MODALIAS properties. Boot tested on ARM and compile tested on PowerPC and SPARC.

Audit entry,always rules are not allowed and are automatically changed in exit,always rules in userspace. The kernel refuses to load such rules. Thus a task in the middle of a syscall (and thus in audit_finish_fork()) can only be in one of two states: AUDIT_BUILD_CONTEXT or AUDIT_DISABLED. Since the current task cannot be in AUDIT_RECORD_CONTEXT we aren't every going to actually use the code in audit_finish_fork() since it will return without doing anything. Thus drop the code.

-
由 Eric Paris 提交于
The audit system previously expected arches calling to audit_syscall_exit to supply as arguments if the syscall was a success and what the return code was. Audit also provides a helper AUDITSC_RESULT which was supposed to simplify things by converting from negative retcodes to an audit internal magic value stating success or failure. This helper was wrong and could indicate that a valid pointer returned to userspace was a failed syscall. The fix is to fix the layering foolishness. We now pass audit_syscall_exit a struct pt_reg and it in turns calls back into arch code to collect the return value and to determine if the syscall was a success or failure. We also define a generic is_syscall_success() macro which determines success/failure based on if the value is < -MAX_ERRNO. This works for arches like x86 which do not use a separate mechanism to indicate syscall failure. We make both the is_syscall_success() and regs_return_value() static inlines instead of macros. The reason is because the audit function must take a void* for the regs. (uml calls theirs struct uml_pt_regs instead of just struct pt_regs so audit_syscall_exit can't take a struct pt_regs). Since the audit function takes a void* we need to use static inlines to cast it back to the arch correct structure to dereference it. The other major change is that on some arches, like ia64, MIPS and ppc, we change regs_return_value() to give us the negative value on syscall failure. THE only other user of this macro, kretprobe_example.c, won't notice and it makes the value signed consistently for the audit functions across all archs. In arch/sh/kernel/ptrace_64.c I see that we were using regs[9] in the old audit code as the return value. But the ptrace_64.h code defined the macro regs_return_value() as regs[3]. I have no idea which one is correct, but this patch now uses the regs_return_value() function, so it now uses regs[3]. For powerpc we previously used regs->result but now use the regs_return_value() function which uses regs->gprs[3]. regs->gprs[3] is always positive so the regs_return_value(), much like ia64 makes it negative before calling the audit code when appropriate.

The original resource conflict checking in APEI code will check memory/ioport accessed by APEI via general resource management mechanism. But ACPI NVS region is marked as busy already, so that the false resource conflict will prevent APEI ERST/EINJ to work.

This patch partially reverts: 3d058d7b netfilter: rework user-space expectation helper support that was applied during the 3.2 development cycle. After this patch, the tree remains just like before patch bc01befd, that initially added the preliminary infrastructure. I decided to partially revert this patch because the approach that I proposed to resolve this problem is broken in NAT setups. Moreover, a new infrastructure will be submitted for the 3.3.x development cycle that resolve the existing issues while providing a neat solution. Since nobody has been seriously using this infrastructure in user-space, the removal of this feature should affect any know FOSS project (to my knowledge).

Linux allows executing the SG_IO ioctl on a partition or LVM volume, and will pass the command to the underlying block device. This is well-known, but it is also a large security problem when (via Unix permissions, ACLs, SELinux or a combination thereof) a program or user needs to be granted access only to part of the disk. This patch lets partitions forward a small set of harmless ioctls; others are logged with printk so that we can see which ioctls are actually sent. In my tests only CDROM_GET_CAPABILITY actually occurred. Of course it was being sent to a (partition on a) hard disk, so it would have failed with ENOTTY and the patch isn't changing anything in practice. Still, I'm treating it specially to avoid spamming the logs. In principle, this restriction should include programs running with CAP_SYS_RAWIO. If for example I let a program access /dev/sda2 and /dev/sdb, it still should not be able to read/write outside the boundaries of /dev/sda2 independent of the capabilities. However, for now programs with CAP_SYS_RAWIO will still be allowed to send the ioctls. Their actions will still be logged. This patch does not affect the non-libata IDE driver. That driver however already tests for bd != bd->bd_contains before issuing some ioctl; it could be restricted further to forbid these ioctls even for programs running with CAP_SYS_ADMIN/CAP_SYS_RAWIO.

由 Cyrill Gorcunov 提交于
When we restore a task we need to set up text, data and data heap sizes from userspace to the values a task had at checkpoint time. This patch adds auxilary prctl codes for that. While most of them have a statistical nature (their values are involved into calculation of /proc/<pid>/statm output) the start_brk and brk values are used to compute an allowed size of program data segment expansion. Which means an arbitrary changes of this values might be dangerous operation. So to restrict access the following requirements applied to prctl calls: - The process has to have CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability granted. - For all opcodes except start_brk/brk members an appropriate VMA area must exist and should fit certain VMA flags, such as: - code segment must be executable but not writable; - data segment must not be executable. start_brk/brk values must not intersect with data segment and must not exceed RLIMIT_DATA resource limit. Still the main guard is CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability check. Note the kernel should be compiled with CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE support otherwise these prctl calls will return -EINVAL.

Replace pagevecs in putback_lru_pages() and move_active_pages_to_lru() by lists of pages_to_free: then apply Konstantin Khlebnikov's free_hot_cold_page_list() to them instead of pagevec_release(). Which simplifies the flow (no need to drop and retake lock whenever pagevec fills up) and reduces stale addresses in stack backtraces (which often showed through the pagevecs); but more importantly, removes another 120 bytes from the deepest stacks in page reclaim. Although I've not recently seen an actual stack overflow here with a vanilla kernel, move_active_pages_to_lru() has often featured in deep backtraces. However, free_hot_cold_page_list() does not handle compound pages (nor need it: a Transparent HugePage would have been split by the time it reaches the call in shrink_page_list()), but it is possible for putback_lru_pages() or move_active_pages_to_lru() to be left holding the last reference on a THP, so must exclude the unlikely compound case before putting on pages_to_free. Remove pagevec_strip(), its work now done in move_active_pages_to_lru(). The pagevec in scan_mapping_unevictable_pages() remains in mm/vmscan.c, but that is never on the reclaim path, and cannot be replaced by a list.
