* [PATCH] SELinux: add finer grained permissions to Netlink audit processingJames Morris2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch provides finer grained permissions for the audit family of Netlink sockets under SELinux. 1. We need a way to differentiate between privileged and unprivileged reads of kernel data maintained by the audit subsystem. The AUDIT_GET operation is unprivileged: it returns the current status of the audit subsystem (e.g. whether it's enabled etc.). The AUDIT_LIST operation however returns a list of the current audit ruleset, which is considered privileged by the audit folk. To deal with this, a new SELinux permission has been implemented and applied to the operation: nlmsg_readpriv, which can be allocated to appropriately privileged domains. Unprivileged domains would only be allocated nlmsg_read. 2. There is a requirement for certain domains to generate audit events from userspace. These events need to be collected by the kernel, collated and transmitted sequentially back to the audit daemon. An example is user level login, an auditable event under CAPP, where login-related domains generate AUDIT_USER messages via PAM which are relayed back to auditd via the kernel. To prevent handing out nlmsg_write permissions to such domains, a new permission has been added, nlmsg_relay, which is intended for this type of purpose: data is passed via the kernel back to userspace but no privileged information is written to the kernel. Also, AUDIT_LOGIN messages are now valid only for kernel->user messaging, so this value has been removed from the SELinux nlmsgtab (which is only used to check user->kernel messages).

| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes the sclass argument from ipc_has_perm in the SELinux module, as it can be obtained from the ipc security structure.

| | | | | | | | | | | | In rare situations, drop_buffers() can be called for a page which has buffers, but no ->mapping (it was truncated, but the buffers were left behind because ext3 was still fiddling with them). But if there was an I/O error in a buffer_head, drop_buffers() will try to get at the address_space and will oops.

* [PATCH] add kmalloc_node, inline cleanupManfred Spraul2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch makes the following function calls available to allocate memory on a specific node without changing the basic operation of the slab allocator: kmem_cache_alloc_node(kmem_cache_t *cachep, unsigned int flags, int node); kmalloc_node(size_t size, unsigned int flags, int node); in a similar way to the existing node-blind functions: kmem_cache_alloc(kmem_cache_t *cachep, unsigned int flags); kmalloc(size, flags); kmem_cache_alloc_node was changed to pass flags and the node information through the existing layers of the slab allocator (which lead to some minor rearrangements). The functions at the lowest layer (kmem_getpages, cache_grow) are already node aware. Also __alloc_percpu can call kmalloc_node now.

* [PATCH] mempool: simplify allocNick Piggin2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Mempool is pretty clever. Looks too clever for its own good :) It shouldn't really know so much about page reclaim internals. - don't guess about what effective page reclaim might involve. - don't randomly flush out all dirty data if some unlikely thing happens (alloc returns NULL). page reclaim can (sort of :P) handle it. I think the main motivation is trying to avoid pool->lock at all costs. However the first allocation is attempted with __GFP_WAIT cleared, so it will be 'can_try_harder' if it hits the page allocator. So if allocation still fails, then we can probably afford to hit the pool->lock - and what's the alternative? Try page reclaim and hit zone->lru_lock? A nice upshot is that we don't need to do any fancy memory barriers or do (intentionally) racy access to pool-> fields outside the lock.

* [PATCH] mempool: NOMEMALLOC and NORETRYNick Piggin2005-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Mempools have 2 problems. The first is that mempool_alloc can possibly get stuck in __alloc_pages when they should opt to fail, and take an element from their reserved pool. The second is that it will happily eat emergency PF_MEMALLOC reserves instead of going to their reserved pools. Fix the first by passing __GFP_NORETRY in the allocation calls in mempool_alloc. Fix the second by introducing a __GFP_MEMPOOL flag which directs the page allocator not to allocate from the reserve pool.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | and add kernel_install Removing the dependency on vmlinux for the install target raised a few complaints, so instead a new target i added: kernel_install. kernel_install will install the kernel just like the ordinary install target. The only difference is that install has a dependency on vmlinux, kernel_install does not. Therefore kernel_install is the best choice when accessing the kernel over a NFS mount or as another user. kernel_install is similar to modules_install in the fact that neither does a full kernel compile before performing the install. In this way they are good for root use. Also added back the dependency on vmlinux for the install target so peoples scripts are no longer broken.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the kernel creates a signal frame on the user stack, it puts the old stack pointer value at the beginning so that the signal frame is linked into the chain of stack frames like any other frame. Unfortunately, for 32-bit processes we are writing the old stack pointer as a 64-bit value rather than a 32-bit value, and the process sees that as a null pointer, since it only looks at the first 32 bits, which are zero since ppc is bigendian and the stack pointer is below 4GB. This bug is in SLES9 and RHEL4 too, hence the ccs. This patch fixes the bug by making the signal code write the old stack pointer as a u32 instead of an unsigned long.

This is problematic as both CPUs will try to configure the PCI bus as they boot linux. Contrary to on the other IXP2000 platforms, the boot loader on the IXDP2800 doesn't configure the PCI bus properly, so we do want the linux instance on one of the CPUs to do that. Making one of the CPUs ignore the PCI bus (and thus act like a pure PCI slave device) is not an option because there is a 82559 NIC on the PCI bus for each of the CPUs. The chosen solution is to have the master CPU configure the PCI bus while the slave is kept in a quiescent state, and then to have the slave CPU scan the PCI bus (without assigning resources) while the master is kept in a quiescent state. After this ritual, the master deletes the slave NIC from its PCI device list, the slave deletes the master NIC from its device list, and (almost) all is well. There's still one little problem: each of the CPUs has a 1G SDRAM BAR, but the IXP2000 only has 512M of outbound PCI memory window. We solve this by hand-assigning the master and slave SDRAM BARs to a location outside each of the IXP's outbound PCI windows, and by having the rest of the BARs autoconfigured in the outbound PCI windows, in the range [e0000000..ffffffff], so that there is a 1:1 pci:phys mapping between them. Even with this patch, a number of issues still remain -- just imagine what happens if one of the CPUs is rebooted, by watchdog or by hand, but the other one isn't. But those issues are not easily fixable given the strange PCI layout of this board and the behavior of the boot loader shipped with the platform.

In particular this provides an efficient way to retrieve the TLS value and perform atomic operations without any instruction emulation nor special system call. This even allows for pre ARMv6 binaries to be forward compatible with SMP systems without any penalty. The problematic and performance critical operations are performed through segment of kernel provided user code reachable from user space at a fixed address in kernel memory. Those fixed entry points are within the vector page so we basically get it for free as no extra memory page is required and nothing else may be mapped at that location anyway. This is different from (but doesn't preclude) a full blown VDSO implementation, however a VDSO would prevent some assembly tricks with constants that allows for efficient branching to those code segments. And since those code segments only use a few cycles before returning to user code, the overhead of a VDSO far call would add a significant overhead to such minimalistic operations. The ARM_NR_set_tls syscall also changed number. This is done for two reasons: 1) this patch changes the way the TLS value was previously meant to be retrieved, therefore we ensure whatever library using the old way gets fixed (they only exist in private tree at the moment since the NPTL work is still progressing). 2) the previous number was allocated in a range causing an undefined instruction trap on kernels not supporting that syscall and it was determined that allocating it in a range returning -ENOSYS would be much nicer for libraries trying to determine if the feature is present or not.

| * | [PATCH] ARM: 2659/1: do not assign PCI I/O address zero on IXP2000Lennert Buytenhek2005-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch from Lennert Buytenhek Assigning the address zero to a PCI device BAR causes some part of the PCI subsystem to believe that resource allocation for that BAR failed due to resource conflicts, which will make attempts to enable the device fail. Work around this by assigning I/O addresses starting from 00010000. While we're at it, make the PCI I/O resource end at 0001ffff, since we only have 64k of outbound I/O window on the IXP2000, and we don't do bank switching.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch from Lennert Buytenhek On the IXDP2800, the bootloader does an awful job of configuring the PCI bus, so we make linux reconfigure everything. Having a 1:1 pci:phys address mapping generally simplifies everything, so try to allocate PCI addresses from the [e0000000..ffffffff] range, which is the physical address range of the outbound PCI window on the IXP2000. This does not affect any of the other IXP2000 platforms since they all use their bootloader's PCI resource assignment.

* | x86: make traps on 'iret' be debuggable in user spaceLinus Torvalds2005-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes a trap on the 'iret' that returns us to user space cause a nice clean SIGSEGV, instead of just a hard (and silent) exit. That way a debugger can actually try to see what happened, and we also properly notify everybody who might be interested about us being gone. This loses the error code, but tells the debugger what happened with ILL_BADSTK in the siginfo.

* | [PATCH] Add suspend method to cpufreq coreBenjamin Herrenschmidt2005-04-29
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to properly fix some issues with cpufreq vs. sleep on PowerBooks, I had to add a suspend callback to the pmac_cpufreq driver. I must force a switch to full speed before sleep and I switch back to previous speed on resume. I also added a driver flag to disable the warnings in suspend/resume since it is expected in this case to have different speed (and I want it to fixup the jiffies properly).
