| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | lock_kernel() calls have been pushed down into code which needs it, so there is no need to take the BKL at this level anymore.

I changed the file systems who don't use the BKL for anything (CIFS, GFS) to call it directly. NCPFS and SMBFS and NFS take the BKL, but explicitely in their own source now. I moved them all over in a single patch to avoid unbisectable sections. Open problem: 32bit kernels can corrupt fpos because its modification is not atomic, but they can do that anyways because there's other paths who modify it without BKL. Do we need a special lock for the pos/f_version = 0 checks? Trond says the NFS BKL is likely not needed, but keep it for now until his full audit. v2: Use generic_file_llseek_unlocked instead of remote_llseek_unlocked and factor duplicated code (suggested by hch) Cc: Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com Cc: swhiteho@redhat.com Cc: sfrench@samba.org Cc: vandrove@vc.cvut.cz Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

| * | Replace BKL with superblock lock in fat/msdos/vfatLinus Torvalds2008-06-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This replaces the use of the BKL in the FAT family of filesystems with the existing superblock lock instead. The code already appears to do mostly proper locking with its own private spinlocks (and mutexes), but while the BKL could possibly have been dropped entirely, converting it to use the superblock lock (which is just a regular mutex) is the conservative thing to do. As a per-filesystem mutex, it not only won't have any of the possible latency issues related to the BKL, but the lock is obviously private to the particular filesystem instance and will thus not cause problems for entirely unrelated users like the BKL can.

This allows security modules to permit access to reading process state without granting full ptrace access. The base DAC/capability checking remains unchanged. Read access to /proc/pid/mem continues to apply a full ptrace attach check since check_mem_permission() already requires the current task to already be ptracing the target. The other ptrace checks within proc for elements like environ, maps, and fds are changed to pass the read mode instead of attach. In the SELinux case, we model such reading of process state as a reading of a proc file labeled with the target process' label. This enables SELinux policy to permit such reading of process state without permitting control or manipulation of the target process, as there are a number of cases where programs probe for such information via proc but do not need to be able to control the target (e.g. procps, lsof, PolicyKit, ConsoleKit). At present we have to choose between allowing full ptrace in policy (more permissive than required/desired) or breaking functionality (or in some cases just silencing the denials via dontaudit rules but this can hide genuine attacks). This version of the patch incorporates comments from Casey Schaufler (change/replace existing ptrace_may_attach interface, pass access mode), and Chris Wright (provide greater consistency in the checking). Note that like their predecessors __ptrace_may_attach and ptrace_may_attach, the __ptrace_may_access and ptrace_may_access interfaces use different return value conventions from each other (0 or -errno vs. 1 or 0). I retained this difference to avoid any changes to the caller logic but made the difference clearer by changing the latter interface to return a bool rather than an int and by adding a comment about it to ptrace.h for any future callers.

This manifested itself in rare I/O errors seen on nfs exported fuse filesystems. This is because nfsd uses splice_direct_to_actor() to read files, and fuse uses invalidate_inode_pages2() to invalidate stale data on open. Fix by redoing the page find/create if it was found to be truncated (invalidated).

Self-destruct in 5 seconds. Have a nice day... ...the problem is that cifs_get_inode_info_unix is creating and hashing a new inode even when it's going to return error anyway. The first lookup when creating a file returns an error so we end up leaking this inode before we do the actual create. This appears to be a regression caused by commit 0e4bbde94fdc33f5b3d793166b21bf768ca3e098. The following patch seems to fix it for me, and fixes a minor formatting nit as well.

However, in xlog_state_get_iclog_space() we also need to check if we have the last reference count there. If we do, we release the log buffer, otherwise we decrement the reference count. But the compare and decrement in xlog_state_get_iclog_space() is not atomic, so both places can see a reference count of 2 and neither will release the iclog. That leads to a filesystem hang. Close the race by replacing the atomic_read() and atomic_dec() pair with atomic_add_unless() to ensure that they are executed atomically.

Therefore re-evaluate VM_STACK_FLAGS in setup_arg_pages, where stack vm_flags used to be set, before the mprotect_fixup. Checking through our existing VM_flags, none would have changed since insert_vm_struct: so this seems safer than finding a way through the personality labyrinth.

The *_CONVERT and *_NOQUEUE flags have different values though, which is eventually causing a crash in flags_to_o2dlm(). Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com>
