2013-12-23f2fs: introduce sysfs entry to control in-place-update policyJaegeuk Kim1-0/+11
This patch introduces new sysfs entries for users to control the policy of in-place-updates, namely IPU, in f2fs. Sometimes f2fs suffers from performance degradation due to its out-of-place update policy that produces many additional node block writes. If the storage performance is very dependant on the amount of data writes instead of IO patterns, we'd better drop this out-of-place update policy. This patch suggests 5 polcies and their triggering conditions as follows. [sysfs entry name = ipu_policy] 0: F2FS_IPU_FORCE all the time, 1: F2FS_IPU_SSR if SSR mode is activated, 2: F2FS_IPU_UTIL if FS utilization is over threashold, 3: F2FS_IPU_SSR_UTIL if SSR mode is activated and FS utilization is over threashold, 4: F2FS_IPU_DISABLE disable IPU. (=default option) [sysfs entry name = min_ipu_util] This parameter controls the threshold to trigger in-place-updates. The number indicates percentage of the filesystem utilization, and used by F2FS_IPU_UTIL and F2FS_IPU_SSR_UTIL policies. For more details, see need_inplace_update() in segment.h.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) Revert CHECKSUM_COMPLETE optimization in pskb_trim_rcsum(), I can't figure out why it breaks things. 2) Fix comparison in netfilter ipset's hash_netnet4_data_equal(), it was basically doing "x == x", from Dave Jones. 3) Freescale FEC driver was DMA mapping the wrong number of bytes, from Sebastian Siewior. 4) Blackhole and prohibit routes in ipv6 were not doing the right thing because their ->input and ->output methods were not being assigned correctly. Now they behave properly like their ipv4 counterparts. From Kamala R. 5) Several drivers advertise the NETIF_F_FRAGLIST capability, but really do not support this feature and will send garbage packets if fed fraglist SKBs. From Eric Dumazet. 6) Fix long standing user triggerable BUG_ON over loopback in RDS protocol stack, from Venkat Venkatsubra. 7) Several not so common code paths can potentially try to invoke packet scheduler actions that might be NULL without checking. Shore things up by either 1) defining a method as mandatory and erroring on registration if that method is NULL 2) defininig a method as optional and the registration function hooks up a default implementation when NULL is seen. From Jamal Hadi Salim. 8) Fix fragment detection in xen-natback driver, from Paul Durrant. 9) Kill dangling enter_memory_pressure method in cg_proto ops, from Eric W Biederman. 10) SKBs that traverse namespaces should have their local_df cleared, from Hannes Frederic Sowa. 11) IOCB file position is not being updated by macvtap_aio_read() and tun_chr_aio_read(). From Zhi Yong Wu. 12) Don't free virtio_net netdev before releasing all of the NAPI instances. From Andrey Vagin. 13) Procfs entry leak in xt_hashlimit, from Sergey Popovich. 14) IPv6 routes that are no cached routes should not count against the garbage collection limits.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs Pull misc keyrings fixes from David Howells: "These break down into five sets: - A patch to error handling in the big_key type for huge payloads. If the payload is larger than the "low limit" and the backing store allocation fails, then big_key_instantiate() doesn't clear the payload pointers in the key, assuming them to have been previously cleared - but only one of them is. Unfortunately, the garbage collector still calls big_key_destroy() when sees one of the pointers with a weird value in it (and not NULL) which it then tries to clean up. - Three patches to fix the keyring type: * A patch to fix the hash function to correctly divide keyrings off from keys in the topology of the tree inside the associative array. This is only a problem if searching through nested keyrings - and only if the hash function incorrectly puts the a keyring outside of the 0 branch of the root node. * A patch to fix keyrings' use of the associative array. The __key_link_begin() function initially passes a NULL key pointer to assoc_array_insert() on the basis that it's holding a place in the tree whilst it does more allocation and stuff. This is only a problem when a node contains 16 keys that match at that level and we want to add an also matching 17th. This should easily be manufactured with a keyring full of keyrings (without chucking any other sort of key into the mix) - except for (a) above which makes it on average adding the 65th keyring. * A patch to fix searching down through nested keyrings, where any keyring in the set has more than 16 keyrings and none of the first keyrings we look through has a match (before the tree iteration needs to step to a more distal node). Test in keyutils test suite: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/keyutils.git/commit/?id=8b4ae963ed92523aea18dfbb8cab3f4979e13bd1 - A patch to fix the big_key type's use of a shmem file as its backing store causing audit messages and LSM check failures. This is done by setting S_PRIVATE on the file to avoid LSM checks on the file (access to the shmem file goes through the keyctl() interface and so is gated by the LSM that way). This isn't normally a problem if a key is used by the context that generated it - and it's currently only used by libkrb5. Test in keyutils test suite: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/keyutils.git/commit/?id=d9a53cbab42c293962f2f78f7190253fc73bd32e - A patch to add a generated file to .gitignore. - A patch to fix the alignment of the system certificate data such that it it works on s390.

2013-12-11net: smc91x: Fix device tree based configuration so it's usableTony Lindgren1-0/+4
Commit 89ce376c6bdc (drivers/net: Use of_match_ptr() macro in smc91x.c) added minimal device tree support to smc91x, but it's not working on many platforms because of the lack of some key configuration bits. Fix the issue by parsing the necessary configuration like the smc911x driver is doing. As most smc91x users seem to use 16-bit access, let's default to that if no reg-io-width is specified.

2013-12-09packet: fix send path when running with proto == 0Daniel Borkmann1-0/+10
Commit e40526cb20b5 introduced a cached dev pointer, that gets hooked into register_prot_hook(), __unregister_prot_hook() to update the device used for the send path. We need to fix this up, as otherwise this will not work with sockets created with protocol = 0, plus with sll_protocol = 0 passed via sockaddr_ll when doing the bind. So instead, assign the pointer directly. The compiler can inline these helper functions automagically. While at it, also assume the cached dev fast-path as likely(), and document this variant of socket creation as it seems it is not widely used (seems not even the author of TX_RING was aware of that in his reference example [1]). Tested with reproducer from e40526cb20b5.

2013-12-05net: davinci_emac: Fix platform data handling and make usable for am3517Tony Lindgren1-1/+1
When booted with device tree, we may still have platform data passed as auxdata. For am3517 this is needed for passing the interrupt_enable and interrupt_disable callbacks that access the omap system control module registers. These callback functions will eventually go away when we have a separate system control module driver. Some of the things that are currently passed as platform data we don't need to set up as device tree properties as they are always the same on am3517. So let's use a new compatible flag for those so we can get those from the device tree match data. Also note that we need to fix setting of phy_dev to NULL instead of an empty string as the code later on uses that to find the first phy on the mdio bus. This seems to have been caused by 5d69e0076a72 (net: davinci_emac: switch to new mdio). Signed-off-by: Tony Lindgren <tony@atomide.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The series contains a handful of fixes for the igep boards as they were one of the first omap3 boards to jump over completely to device tree based booting. So these can be considered regressions compared to booting igep in legacy mode with board files in v3.12. Also included are few other device tree vs legacy booting regressions: - yet more missing omap3 .dtsi entries that have showed up booting various boards with device tree only - n900 eMMC device tree fix - fixes for beagle USB EHCI - two fixes to make omap2420 MMC work As we're moving omap2+ to be device tree only for v3.14, I'd like to have v3.13 work equally well for legacy based booting and device tree based booting. So there will be likely few more device tree related booting patches trickling in.

2013-12-02KEYS: Fix multiple key add into associative arrayDavid Howells1-3/+3
If sufficient keys (or keyrings) are added into a keyring such that a node in the associative array's tree overflows (each node has a capacity N, currently 16) and such that all N+1 keys have the same index key segment for that level of the tree (the level'th nibble of the index key), then assoc_array_insert() calls ops->diff_objects() to indicate at which bit position the two index keys vary. However, __key_link_begin() passes a NULL object to assoc_array_insert() with the intention of supplying the correct pointer later before we commit the change. This means that keyring_diff_objects() is given a NULL pointer as one of its arguments which it does not expect. This results in an oops like the attached. With the previous patch to fix the keyring hash function, this can be forced much more easily by creating a keyring and only adding keyrings to it. Add any other sort of key and a different insertion path is taken - all 16+1 objects must want to cluster in the same node slot. This can be tested by: r=`keyctl newring sandbox @s` for ((i=0; i<=16; i++)); do keyctl newring ring$i $r; done This should work fine, but oopses when the 17th keyring is added. Since ops->diff_objects() is always called with the first pointer pointing to the object to be inserted (ie. the NULL pointer), we can fix the problem by changing the to-be-inserted object pointer to point to the index key passed into assoc_array_insert() instead. Whilst we're at it, we also switch the arguments so that they are the same as for ->compare_object().

2013-11-25Documentation: gpiolib: document new interfaceAlexandre Courbot6-0/+661
gpiolib now exports a new descriptor-based interface which deprecates the older integer-based one. This patch documents this new interface and also takes the opportunity to brush-up the GPIO documentation a little bit. The new descriptor-based interface follows the same consumer/driver model as many other kernel subsystems (e.g. clock, regulator), so its documentation has similarly been splitted into different files. The content of the former documentation has been reused whenever it made sense; however, some of its content did not apply to the new interface anymore and have this been removed. Likewise, new sections like the mapping of GPIOs to devices have been written from scratch. The deprecated legacy-based documentation is still available, untouched, under Documentation/gpio/gpio-legacy.txt.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/linux-security Pull security subsystem updates from James Morris: "In this patchset, we finally get an SELinux update, with Paul Moore taking over as maintainer of that code. Also a significant update for the Keys subsystem, as well as maintenance updates to Smack, IMA, TPM, and Apparmor" and since I wanted to know more about the updates to key handling, here's the explanation from David Howells on that: "Okay. There are a number of separate bits. I'll go over the big bits and the odd important other bit, most of the smaller bits are just fixes and cleanups. If you want the small bits accounting for, I can do that too. (1) Keyring capacity expansion. KEYS: Consolidate the concept of an 'index key' for key access KEYS: Introduce a search context structure KEYS: Search for auth-key by name rather than target key ID Add a generic associative array implementation. KEYS: Expand the capacity of a keyring Several of the patches are providing an expansion of the capacity of a keyring. Currently, the maximum size of a keyring payload is one page. Subtract a small header and then divide up into pointers, that only gives you ~500 pointers on an x86_64 box. However, since the NFS idmapper uses a keyring to store ID mapping data, that has proven to be insufficient to the cause. Whatever data structure I use to handle the keyring payload, it can only store pointers to keys, not the keys themselves because several keyrings may point to a single key. This precludes inserting, say, and rb_node struct into the key struct for this purpose. I could make an rbtree of records such that each record has an rb_node and a key pointer, but that would use four words of space per key stored in the keyring. It would, however, be able to use much existing code. I selected instead a non-rebalancing radix-tree type approach as that could have a better space-used/key-pointer ratio. I could have used the radix tree implementation that we already have and insert keys into it by their serial numbers, but that means any sort of search must iterate over the whole radix tree. Further, its nodes are a bit on the capacious side for what I want - especially given that key serial numbers are randomly allocated, thus leaving a lot of empty space in the tree. So what I have is an associative array that internally is a radix-tree with 16 pointers per node where the index key is constructed from the key type pointer and the key description. This means that an exact lookup by type+description is very fast as this tells us how to navigate directly to the target key. I made the data structure general in lib/assoc_array.c as far as it is concerned, its index key is just a sequence of bits that leads to a pointer. It's possible that someone else will be able to make use of it also. FS-Cache might, for example. (2) Mark keys as 'trusted' and keyrings as 'trusted only'. KEYS: verify a certificate is signed by a 'trusted' key KEYS: Make the system 'trusted' keyring viewable by userspace KEYS: Add a 'trusted' flag and a 'trusted only' flag KEYS: Separate the kernel signature checking keyring from module signing These patches allow keys carrying asymmetric public keys to be marked as being 'trusted' and allow keyrings to be marked as only permitting the addition or linkage of trusted keys. Keys loaded from hardware during kernel boot or compiled into the kernel during build are marked as being trusted automatically. New keys can be loaded at runtime with add_key(). They are checked against the system keyring contents and if their signatures can be validated with keys that are already marked trusted, then they are marked trusted also and can thus be added into the master keyring. Patches from Mimi Zohar make this usable with the IMA keyrings also. (3) Remove the date checks on the key used to validate a module signature. X.509: Remove certificate date checks It's not reasonable to reject a signature just because the key that it was generated with is no longer valid datewise - especially if the kernel hasn't yet managed to set the system clock when the first module is loaded - so just remove those checks. (4) Make it simpler to deal with additional X.509 being loaded into the kernel. KEYS: Load *.x509 files into kernel keyring KEYS: Have make canonicalise the paths of the X.509 certs better to deduplicate The builder of the kernel now just places files with the extension ".x509" into the kernel source or build trees and they're concatenated by the kernel build and stuffed into the appropriate section. (5) Add support for userspace kerberos to use keyrings. KEYS: Add per-user_namespace registers for persistent per-UID kerberos caches KEYS: Implement a big key type that can save to tmpfs Fedora went to, by default, storing kerberos tickets and tokens in tmpfs. We looked at storing it in keyrings instead as that confers certain advantages such as tickets being automatically deleted after a certain amount of time and the ability for the kernel to get at these tokens more easily. To make this work, two things were needed: (a) A way for the tickets to persist beyond the lifetime of all a user's sessions so that cron-driven processes can still use them. The problem is that a user's session keyrings are deleted when the session that spawned them logs out and the user's user keyring is deleted when the UID is deleted (typically when the last log out happens), so neither of these places is suitable. I've added a system keyring into which a 'persistent' keyring is created for each UID on request. Each time a user requests their persistent keyring, the expiry time on it is set anew. If the user doesn't ask for it for, say, three days, the keyring is automatically expired and garbage collected using the existing gc. All the kerberos tokens it held are then also gc'd. (b) A key type that can hold really big tickets (up to 1MB in size). The problem is that Active Directory can return huge tickets with lots of auxiliary data attached. We don't, however, want to eat up huge tracts of unswappable kernel space for this, so if the ticket is greater than a certain size, we create a swappable shmem file and dump the contents in there and just live with the fact we then have an inode and a dentry overhead. If the ticket is smaller than that, we slap it in a kmalloc()'d buffer" * 'for-linus2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/linux-security: (121 commits) KEYS: Fix keyring content gc scanner KEYS: Fix error handling in big_key instantiation KEYS: Fix UID check in keyctl_get_persistent() KEYS: The RSA public key algorithm needs to select MPILIB ima: define '_ima' as a builtin 'trusted' keyring ima: extend the measurement list to include the file signature kernel/system_certificate.S: use real contents instead of macro GLOBAL() KEYS: fix error return code in big_key_instantiate() KEYS: Fix keyring quota misaccounting on key replacement and unlink KEYS: Fix a race between negating a key and reading the error set KEYS: Make BIG_KEYS boolean apparmor: remove the "task" arg from may_change_ptraced_domain() apparmor: remove parent task info from audit logging apparmor: remove tsk field from the apparmor_audit_struct apparmor: fix capability to not use the current task, during reporting Smack: Ptrace access check mode ima: provide hash algo info in the xattr ima: enable support for larger default filedata hash algorithms ima: define kernel parameter 'ima_template=' to change configured default ima: add Kconfig default measurement list template ...
