2012-10-12vfs: embed struct filename inside of names_cache allocation if possibleJeff Layton2-20/+50
In the common case where a name is much smaller than PATH_MAX, an extra allocation for struct filename is unnecessary. Before allocating a separate one, try to embed the struct filename inside the buffer first. If it turns out that that's not long enough, then fall back to allocating a separate struct filename and redoing the copy.

2012-10-12audit: allow audit code to satisfy getname requests from its names_listJeff Layton3-0/+38
Currently, if we call getname() on a userland string more than once, we'll get multiple copies of the string and multiple audit_names records. Add a function that will allow the audit_names code to satisfy getname requests using info from the audit_names list, avoiding a new allocation and audit_names records.

2012-10-12vfs: define struct filename and have getname() return itJeff Layton40-175/+218
getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to the string. For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled, we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not need to recopy it from userspace. This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it. Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes convenient. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2012-10-12tcp: resets are misroutedAlexey Kuznetsov2-4/+6
After commit e2446eaa ("tcp_v4_send_reset: binding oif to iif in no sock case").. tcp resets are always lost, when routing is asymmetric. Yes, backing out that patch will result in misrouting of resets for dead connections which used interface binding when were alive, but we actually cannot do anything here. What's died that's died and correct handling normal unbound connections is obviously a priority. Comment to comment: > This has few benefits: > 1. tcp_v6_send_reset already did that. It was done to route resets for IPv6 link local addresses. It was a mistake to do so for global addresses. The patch fixes this as well. Actually, the problem appears to be even more serious than guaranteed loss of resets. As reported by Sergey Soloviev <sol@eqv.ru>, those misrouted resets create a lot of arp traffic and huge amount of unresolved arp entires putting down to knees NAT firewalls which use asymmetric routing.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen Pull Xen fixes from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk: "This has four bug-fixes and one tiny feature that I forgot to put initially in my tree due to oversight. The feature is for kdump kernels to speed up the /proc/vmcore reading. There is a ram_is_pfn helper function that the different platforms can register for. We are now doing that. The bug-fixes cover some embarrassing struct pv_cpu_ops variables being set to NULL on Xen (but not baremetal). We had a similar issue in the past with {write|read}_msr_safe and this fills the three missing ones. The other bug-fix is to make the console output (hvc) be capable of dealing with misbehaving backends and not fall flat on its face. Lastly, a quirk for older XenBus implementations that came with an ancient v3.4 hypervisor (so RHEL5 based) - reading of certain non-existent attributes just hangs the guest during bootup - so we take precaution of not doing that on such older installations. Feature: - Register a pfn_is_ram helper to speed up reading of /proc/vmcore.

The commit 254d1a3f02ebc10ccc6e4903394d8d3f484f715e, titled "xen/pv-on-hvm kexec: shutdown watches from old kernel" assumes that the XenBus backend can deal with reading of values from: "control/platform-feature-xs_reset_watches": ... a patch for xenstored is required so that it accepts the XS_RESET_WATCHES request from a client (see changeset 23839:42a45baf037d in xen-unstable.hg). Without the patch for xenstored the registration of watches will fail and some features of a PVonHVM guest are not available. The guest is still able to boot, but repeated kexec boots will fail." Sadly this is not true when using a Xen 3.4 hypervisor and booting a PVHVM guest. We end up hanging at: err = xenbus_scanf(XBT_NIL, "control", "platform-feature-xs_reset_watches", "%d", &supported); This can easily be seen with guests hanging at xenbus_init: NX (Execute Disable) protection: active SMBIOS 2.4 present.

First, it's incorrect to call putname() after __getname_gfp() since the bare __getname_gfp() call skips the auditing code, while putname() doesn't. mount_block_root allocates a PATH_MAX buffer via __getname_gfp, and then calls get_fs_names to fill the buffer. That function can call get_filesystem_list which assumes that that buffer is a full page in size. On arches where PAGE_SIZE != 4k, then this could potentially overrun. In practice, it's hard to imagine the list of filesystem names even approaching 4k, but it's best to be safe. Just allocate a page for this purpose instead. With this, we can also remove the __getname_gfp() definition since there are no more callers. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-10-12audit: overhaul __audit_inode_child to accomodate retryingJeff Layton5-38/+47
In order to accomodate retrying path-based syscalls, we need to add a new "type" argument to audit_inode_child. This will tell us whether we're looking for a child entry that represents a create or a delete. If we find a parent, don't automatically assume that we need to create a new entry. Instead, use the information we have to try to find an existing entry first. Update it if one is found and create a new one if not.

2012-10-12audit: optimize audit_compare_dname_pathJeff Layton4-12/+20
In the cases where we already know the length of the parent, pass it as a parm so we don't need to recompute it. In the cases where we don't know the length, pass in AUDIT_NAME_FULL (-1) to indicate that it should be determined.

2012-10-12audit: set the name_len in audit_inode for parent lookupsJeff Layton8-34/+87
Currently, this gets set mostly by happenstance when we call into audit_inode_child. While that might be a little more efficient, it seems wrong. If the syscall ends up failing before audit_inode_child ever gets called, then you'll have an audit_names record that shows the full path but has the parent inode info attached. Fix this by passing in a parent flag when we call audit_inode that gets set to the value of LOOKUP_PARENT. We can then fix up the pathname for the audit entry correctly from the get-go. While we're at it, clean up the no-op macro for audit_inode in the !CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL case. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-10-12audit: add a new "type" field to audit_names structJeff Layton2-5/+15
For now, we just have two possibilities: UNKNOWN: for a new audit_names record that we don't know anything about yet NORMAL: for everything else In later patches, we'll add other types so we can distinguish and update records created under different circumstances.

2012-10-12audit: reverse arguments to audit_inode_childJeff Layton5-19/+19
Most of the callers get called with an inode and dentry in the reverse order. The compiler then has to reshuffle the arg registers and/or stack in order to pass them on to audit_inode_child. Reverse those arguments for a micro-optimization. Reported-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-10-12audit: no need to walk list in audit_inode if name is NULLJeff Layton1-1/+5
If name is NULL then the condition in the loop will never be true. Also, with this change, we can eliminate the check for n->name == NULL since the equivalence check will never be true if it is. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media Pull second set of media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab: "Despite its size, most of the stuff here is trivial. This series contains: - s5p-mfc: additions at the driver and at the core to support H.264 hardware codec; - Some improvements at s5p and davinci embedded drivers; - Some V4L2 compliance fixes applied on a few drivers; - Several random trivial patches, including several fixes and a few new board support additions; Notes: 1) Some Exynos media patches were dependent on some -arm fixes that got merged on changeset 782cd9e. That's why this pull request is based that changeset. 2) As promised, I reviewed the pending VB2 DMABUF series. While setting a test environment, it was noticed that the upstream support for Samsung Exynos 4 boards (smdk310 and Origen) are broken upstream, likely due to regressions: both defconfigs are wrong and regulator settings for both boards are broken. That, allied with some bug at the dummy regulator driver, causes OOPSes during boot time. Long story short: even fixing the above, the proposed patches OOPSed when running the DMABUF test. Not sure yet if the OOPSes are due to some other undetected regressions, or due to some bug on the patches. Due to the above, DMABUF patches for vb2 got NACKed for 3.7." * 'v4l_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media: (109 commits) [media] m5mols: Add missing #include <linux/sizes.h> [media] stk1160: Add support for S-Video input Revert "[media] omap3isp: Replace cpu_is_omap3630() with ISP revision check" [media] dvb: LNA implementation changes [media] v4l2-ioctl: fix W=1 warnings [media] v4l2-ioctl: add blocks check for VIDIOC_SUBDEV_G/S_EDID [media] omap3isp: Fix compilation error in ispreg.h [media] rc-msi-digivox-ii: Add full scan keycodes [media] cx25821: testing the wrong variable [media] tda18271-common: hold the I2C adapter during write transfers [media] ds3000: add module parameter to force firmware upload [media] drivers/media: Remove unnecessary semicolon [media] winbond: remove space from driver name [media] iguanair: cannot send data from the stack [media] omap3isp: Replace cpu_is_omap3630() with ISP revision check [media] dvb-usb: print small buffers via %*ph [media] uvc: Add return code check at vb2_queue_init() [media] em28xx: Replace memcpy with struct assignment [media] bt8xx: Add video4linux control V4L2_CID_COLOR_KILLER [media] mem2mem_testdev: Use devm_kzalloc() in probe ...
