  • audit_log_start() may return NULL, this is unchecked by the caller in
    audit_log_link_denied() and could cause a NULL ptr deref.

    Introduced by commit a51d9eaa ("fs: add link restriction audit reporting").

  • Pull networking changes from David Miller:

    1) GRE now works over ipv6, from Dmitry Kozlov.

    2) Make SCTP more network namespace aware, from Eric Biederman.

    3) TEAM driver now works with non-ethernet devices, from Jiri Pirko.

    4) Make openvswitch network namespace aware, from Pravin B Shelar.

    5) IPV6 NAT implementation, from Patrick McHardy.

    6) Server side support for TCP Fast Open, from Jerry Chu and others.

    7) Packet BPF filter supports MOD and XOR, from Eric Dumazet and Daniel
    Borkmann.

    8) Increate the loopback default MTU to 64K, from Eric Dumazet.

    9) Use a per-task rather than per-socket page fragment allocator for
    outgoing networking traffic. This benefits processes that have very
    many mostly idle sockets, which is quite common.

    From Eric Dumazet.

    10) Use up to 32K for page fragment allocations, with fallbacks to
    smaller sizes when higher order page allocations fail. Benefits are
    a) less segments for driver to process b) less calls to page
    allocator c) less waste of space.

    From Eric Dumazet.

    11) Allow GRO to be used on GRE tunnels, from Eric Dumazet.

    12) VXLAN device driver, one way to handle VLAN issues such as the
    limitation of 4096 VLAN IDs yet still have some level of isolation.
    From Stephen Hemminger.

    13) As usual there is a large boatload of driver changes, with the scale
    perhaps tilted towards the wireless side this time around.

    Fix up various fairly trivial conflicts, mostly caused by the user
    namespace changes.

  • - Explicitly format uids gids in audit messges in the initial user
    namespace. This is safe because auditd is restrected to be in
    the initial user namespace.

    - Convert audit_sig_uid into a kuid_t.

    - Enable building the audit code and user namespaces at the same time.

    The net result is that the audit subsystem now uses kuid_t and kgid_t whenever
    possible making it almost impossible to confuse a raw uid_t with a kuid_t
    preventing bugs.

  • It is a frequent mistake to confuse the netlink port identifier with a
    process identifier. Try to reduce this confusion by renaming fields
    that hold port identifiers portid instead of pid.

    I have carefully avoided changing the structures exported to
    userspace to avoid changing the userspace API.

    I have successfully built an allyesconfig kernel with this change.

  • This patch adds the following structure:

    struct netlink_kernel_cfg {
    unsigned int groups;
    void (*input)(struct sk_buff *skb);
    struct mutex *cb_mutex;
    };

    That can be passed to netlink_kernel_create to set optional configurations
    for netlink kernel sockets.

    I've populated this structure by looking for NULL and zero parameters at the
    existing code. The remaining parameters that always need to be set are still
    left in the original interface.

    That includes optional parameters for the netlink socket creation. This allows
    easy extensibility of this interface in the future.

    This patch also adapts all callers to use this new interface.

  • In this revision the conversion of secid to SELinux context and adding it
    to the audit log is moved from xt_AUDIT.c to audit.c with the aid of a
    separate helper function - audit_log_secctx - which does both the conversion
    and logging of SELinux context, thus also preventing internal secid number
    being leaked to userspace. If conversion is not successful an error is raised.

    With the introduction of this helper function the work done in xt_AUDIT.c is
    much more simplified. It also opens the possibility of this helper function
    being used by other modules (including auditd itself), if desired. With this
    addition, typical (raw auditd) output after applying the patch would be:

    type=NETFILTER_PKT msg=audit(1305852240.082:31012): action=0 hook=1 len=52 inif=? outif=eth0 saddr=10.1.1.7 daddr=10.1.2.1 ipid=16312 proto=6 sport=56150 dport=22 obj=system_u:object_r:ssh_client_packet_t:s0

    read_lock(&tasklist_lock);
    tty_audit_push_task();
    mutex_lock(&buf->mutex);

    --> buf->mutex is locked with preemption disabled.

    Solve this by acquiring a reference to the task struct under
    rcu_read_lock and call tty_audit_push_task outside of the preempt
    disabled region.

    Move all code which needs to be protected by sighand lock into

  • Convert a few calls from kfree_skb to consume_skb

    Noticed while I was working on dropwatch that I was detecting lots of internal
    skb drops in several places. While some are legitimate, several were not,
    freeing skbs that were at the end of their life, rather than being discarded due
    to an error. This patch converts those calls sites from using kfree_skb to
    consume_skb, which quiets the in-kernel drop_monitor code from detecting them as
    drops. Tested successfully by myself

  • …it slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

    percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
    included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
    in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
    universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

    percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
    this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
    headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
    needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
    used as the basis of conversion.

    http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

    The script does the followings.

    * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
    only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
    gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

    * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
    blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
    to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
    core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
    alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
    doesn't seem to be any matching order.

    * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
    because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
    an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
    file.

    The conversion was done in the following steps.

    1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
    over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
    and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
    files.

    2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
    some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
    embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
    inclusions to around 150 files.

    3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
    from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

    4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
    e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
    APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

    5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
    editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
    files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
    inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
    wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
    slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
    necessary.

    6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

    7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
    were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
    distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
    more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
    build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

    * alpha SMP allmodconfig
    * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

    8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
    a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

    Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
    6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
    If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
    headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
    the specific arch.
