* proc: maps protectionKees Cook2007-05-087-2/+48
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The /proc/pid/ "maps", "smaps", and "numa_maps" files contain sensitive information about the memory location and usage of processes. Issues: - maps should not be world-readable, especially if programs expect any kind of ASLR protection from local attackers. - maps cannot just be 0400 because "-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -O2" makes glibc check the maps when %n is in a *printf call, and a setuid(getuid()) process wouldn't be able to read its own maps file. (For reference see http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/1/22/150) - a system-wide toggle is needed to allow prior behavior in the case of non-root applications that depend on access to the maps contents. This change implements a check using "ptrace_may_attach" before allowing access to read the maps contents. To control this protection, the new knob /proc/sys/kernel/maps_protect has been added, with corresponding updates to the procfs documentation.

* add filesystem subtype supportMiklos Szeredi2007-05-085-6/+55
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's a slight problem with filesystem type representation in fuse based filesystems. From the kernel's view, there are just two filesystem types: fuse and fuseblk. From the user's view there are lots of different filesystem types. The user is not even much concerned if the filesystem is fuse based or not. So there's a conflict of interest in how this should be represented in fstab, mtab and /proc/mounts. The current scheme is to encode the real filesystem type in the mount source. So an sshfs mount looks like this: sshfs#user@server:/ /mnt/server fuse rw,nosuid,nodev,... This url-ish syntax works OK for sshfs and similar filesystems. However for block device based filesystems (ntfs-3g, zfs) it doesn't work, since the kernel expects the mount source to be a real device name. A possibly better scheme would be to encode the real type in the type field as "type.subtype". So fuse mounts would look like this: /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows fuseblk.ntfs-3g rw,... user@server:/ /mnt/server fuse.sshfs rw,nosuid,nodev,... This patch adds the necessary code to the kernel so that this can be correctly displayed in /proc/mounts.

* epoll: optimizations and cleanupsDavide Libenzi2007-05-081-147/+86
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Epoll is doing multiple passes over the ready set at the moment, because of the constraints over the f_op->poll() call. Looking at the code again, I noticed that we already hold the epoll semaphore in read, and this (together with other locking conditions that hold while doing an epoll_wait()) can lead to a smarter way [1] to "ship" events to userspace (in a single pass). This is a stress application that can be used to test the new code. It spwans multiple thread and call epoll_wait() and epoll_ctl() from many threads. Stress tested on my dual Opteron 254 w/out any problems. http://www.xmailserver.org/totalmess.c This is not a benchmark, just something that tries to stress and exploit possible problems with the new code. Also, I made a stupid micro-benchmark: http://www.xmailserver.org/epwbench.c [1] Considering that epoll must be thread-safe, there are five ways we can be hit during an epoll_wait() transfer loop (ep_send_events()): 1) The epoll fd going away and calling ep_free This just can't happen, since we did an fget() in sys_epoll_wait 2) An epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_DEL) This can't happen because epoll_ctl() gets ep->sem in write, and we're holding it in read during ep_send_events() 3) An fd stored inside the epoll fd going away This can't happen because in eventpoll_release_file() we get ep->sem in write, and we're holding it in read during ep_send_events() 4) Another epoll_wait() happening on another thread They both can be inside ep_send_events() at the same time, we get (splice) the ready-list under the spinlock, so each one will get its own ready list. Note that an fd cannot be at the same time inside more than one ready list, because ep_poll_callback() will not re-queue it if it sees it already linked: if (ep_is_linked(&epi->rdllink)) goto is_linked; Another case that can happen, is two concurrent epoll_wait(), coming in with a userspace event buffer of size, say, ten. Suppose there are 50 event ready in the list. The first epoll_wait() will "steal" the whole list, while the second, seeing no events, will go to sleep. But at the end of ep_send_events() in the first epoll_wait(), we will re-inject surplus ready fds, and we will trigger the proper wake_up to the second epoll_wait(). 5) ep_poll_callback() hitting us asyncronously This is the tricky part. As I said above, the ep_is_linked() test done inside ep_poll_callback(), will guarantee us that until the item will result linked to a list, ep_poll_callback() will not try to re-queue it again (read, write data on any of its members). When we do a list_del() in ep_send_events(), the item will still satisfy the ep_is_linked() test (whatever data is written in prev/next, it'll never be its own pointer), so ep_poll_callback() will still leave us alone. It's only after the eventual smp_mb()+INIT_LIST_HEAD(&epi->rdllink) that it'll become visible to ep_poll_callback(), but at the point we're already past it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The first thing done by timespec_trunc() is : if (gran <= jiffies_to_usecs(1) * 1000) This should really be a test against a constant known at compile time. Alas, it isnt. jiffies_to_usec() was unilined so C compiler emits a function call and a multiply to compute : a CONSTANT. mov $0x1,%edi mov %rbx,0xffffffffffffffe8(%rbp) mov %r12,0xfffffffffffffff0(%rbp) mov %edx,%ebx mov %rsi,0xffffffffffffffc8(%rbp) mov %rsi,%r12 callq ffffffff80232010 <jiffies_to_usecs> imul $0x3e8,%eax,%eax cmp %ebx,%eax This patch reorders kernel/time.c a bit so that jiffies_to_usecs() is defined before timespec_trunc() so that compiler now generates : cmp $0x3d0900,%edx (HZ=250 on my machine) This gives a better code (timespec_trunc() becoming a leaf function), and shorter kernel size as well.

This patch merges all the nsproxy and its associated namespace copy/clone handling (as much as possible). Posted on container list earlier for feedback. - Create a new nsproxy and its associated namespaces and pass it back to caller to attach it to right process. - Changed all copy_*_ns() routines to return a new copy of namespace instead of attaching it to task->nsproxy. - Moved the CAP_SYS_ADMIN checks out of copy_*_ns() routines. - Removed unnessary !ns checks from copy_*_ns() and added BUG_ON() just incase. - Get rid of all individual unshare_*_ns() routines and make use of copy_*_ns() instead.

* exec: fix remove_arg_zeroNick Piggin2007-05-081-16/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Petr Tesarik discovered a problem in remove_arg_zero(). He writes: When a script is loaded, load_script() replaces argv[0] with the name of the interpreter and the filename passed to the exec syscall. However, there is no guarantee that the length of the interpreter name plus the length of the filename is greater than the length of the original argv[0]. If the difference happens to cross a page boundary, setup_arg_pages() will call put_dirty_page() [aka install_arg_page()] with an address outside the VMA. Therefore, remove_arg_zero() must free all pages which would be unused after the argument is removed. So, rewrite the remove_arg_zero function without gotos, with a few comments, and with the commonly used explicit index/offset. This fixes the problem and makes it easier to understand as well.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replace call_smp_function with stop_machine_run in the Intel RNG driver. CPU A has done read_lock(&lock) CPU B has done write_lock_irq(&lock) and is waiting for A to release the lock. A third CPU calls call_smp_function and issues the IPI. CPU A takes CPU C's IPI. CPU B is waiting with interrupts disabled and does not see the IPI. CPU C is stuck waiting for CPU B to respond to the IPI. Deadlock. The solution is to use stop_machine_run instead of call_smp_function (call_smp_function should not be called in situations where the CPUs may be suspended).

* Fix constant folding and poor optimization in byte swapping codeTrent Piepho2007-05-081-39/+69
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Constant folding does not work for the swabXX() byte swapping functions, and the C versions optimize poorly. Attempting to initialize a global variable to swab16(0x1234) or put something like "case swab32(42):" in a switch statement will not compile. It can work, swab.h just isn't doing it correctly. This patch fixes that. Contrary to the comment in asm-i386/byteorder.h, gcc does not recognize the "C" version of swab16 and turn it into efficient code. gcc can do this, just not with the current code. The simple function: u16 foo(u16 x) { return swab16(x); } Would compile to: movzwl %ax, %eax movl %eax, %edx shrl $8, %eax sall $8, %edx orl %eax, %edx With this patch, it will compile to: rolw $8, %ax I also attempted to document the maze different macros/inline functions that are used to create the final product.

* ipmi: allow shared interruptsCorey Minyard2007-05-081-35/+89
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The IPMI driver used enable_irq and disable_irq when it got into situations where it couldn't allocate memory; it did this to avoid having the interrupt just lock the machine when it couldn't get memory to perform the transaction to disable the interrupt. This patch modifies the driver to not use disable_irq and enable_irq. It instead sends the messages to the BMC to perform this operation. It also makes sure interrupts are cleanly disabled when the interface is shut down and cleans up some shutdown things that are no longer necessary.
