* [PATCH] keys: restrict contents of /proc/keys to Viewable keysMichael LeMay2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Restrict /proc/keys such that only those keys to which the current task is granted View permission are presented. The documentation is also updated to reflect these changes.

* [PATCH] keys: allocate key serial numbers randomlyMichael LeMay2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Cause key_alloc_serial() to generate key serial numbers randomly rather than in linear sequence. Using an linear sequence permits a covert communication channel to be established, in which one process can communicate with another by creating or not creating new keys within a certain timeframe. The second process can probe for the expected next key serial number and judge its existence by the error returned. This is a problem as the serial number namespace is globally shared between all tasks, regardless of their context. For more information on this topic, this old TCSEC guide is recommended: http://www.radium.ncsc.mil/tpep/library/rainbow/NCSC-TG-030.html Signed-off-by: Michael LeMay <mdlemay@epoch.ncsc.mil> Signed-off-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org> Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* [PATCH] keys: let keyctl_chown() change a key's ownerFredrik Tolf2006-06-26

* [PATCH] keys: discard the contents of a key on revocationDavid Howells2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | Cause the keys linked to a keyring to be unlinked from it when revoked and it causes the data attached to a user-defined key to be discarded when revoked. This frees up most of the quota a key occupied at that point, rather than waiting for the key to actually be destroyed.

* [PATCH] keys: sort out key quota systemDavid Howells2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the ability for key creation to overrun the user's quota in some circumstances - notably when a session keyring is created and assigned to a process that didn't previously have one. This means it's still possible to log in, should PAM require the creation of a new session keyring, and fix an overburdened key quota.

* [PATCH] fix magic sysrq on strange keyboardsFredrik Roubert2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Magic sysrq fails to work on many keyboards, particulary most of notebook keyboards. This patch fixes it. The idea is quite simple: Discard the SysRq break code if Alt is still being held down. This way the broken keyboard can send the break code (or the user with a normal keyboard can release the SysRq key) and the kernel waits until the next key is pressed or the Alt key is released.

* [PATCH] oprofile: Fix unnecessary clevernessMarkus Armbruster2006-06-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | nmi_create_files() in arch/i386/oprofile/nmi_int.c depends on model->num_counters (number of performance counters) being less than 10. While this is currently the case, it's too clever by half. Other archs aren't quite as clever: they assume 100. I suggest to normalize them all to 1000.
