The unix_dgram_recvmsg and unix_stream_recvmsg routines in
net/af_unix.c utilize mutex_lock(&u->readlock) calls in order to
serialize read operations of multiple threads on a single socket. This
implies that, if all n threads of a process block in an AF_UNIX recv
call trying to read data from the same socket, one of these threads
will be sleeping in state TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and all others in state
TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE. Provided that a particular signal is supposed to
be handled by a signal handler defined by the process and that none of
this threads is blocking the signal, the complete_signal routine in
kernel/signal.c will select the 'first' such thread it happens to
encounter when deciding which thread to notify that a signal is
supposed to be handled and if this is one of the TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE
threads, the signal won't be handled until the one thread not blocking
on the u->readlock mutex is woken up because some data to process has
arrived (if this ever happens). The included patch fixes this by
changing mutex_lock to mutex_lock_interruptible and handling possible
error returns in the same way interruptions are handled by the actual
receive-code.Signed-off-by: Rainer Weikusat

When a DNS resolver key is instantiated with an error indication, attempts to
read that key will result in an oops because user_read() is expecting there to
be a payload - and there isn't one [CVE-2011-1076].Give the DNS resolver key its own read handler that returns the error cached in
key->type_data.x[0] as an error rather than crashing.Also make the kenter() at the beginning of dns_resolver_instantiate() limit the
amount of data it prints, since the data is not necessarily NUL-terminated.The buggy code was added in:
commit 4a2d789267e00b5a1175ecd2ddefcc78b83fbf09
Author: Wang Lei
Date: Wed Aug 11 09:37:58 2010 +0100
Subject: DNS: If the DNS server returns an error, allow that to be cached [ver #2]This can trivially be reproduced by any user with the following program
compiled with -lkeyutils:#include
#include
#include
static char payload[] = "#dnserror=6";
int main()
{
key_serial_t key;
key = add_key("dns_resolver", "a", payload, sizeof(payload),
KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING);
if (key == -1)
err(1, "add_key");
if (keyctl_read(key, NULL, 0) == -1)
err(1, "read_key");
return 0;
}What should happen is that keyctl_read() reports error 6 (ENXIO) to the user:
dns-break: read_key: No such device or address
but instead the kernel oopses.
This cannot be reproduced with the 'keyutils add' or 'keyutils padd' commands
as both of those cut the data down below the NUL termination that must be
included in the data. Without this dns_resolver_instantiate() will return
-EINVAL and the key will not be instantiated such that it can be read.The oops looks like:

If we enable trace events to trace block actions, We use
blk_fill_rwbs_rq to analyze the corresponding actions
in request's cmd_flags, but we only choose the minor 2 bits
from it, so most of other flags(e.g, REQ_SYNC) are missing.
For example, with a sync write we get:
write_test-2409 [001] 160.013869: block_rq_insert: 3,64 W 0 () 258135 + =
8 [write_test]Since now we have integrated the flags of both bio and request,
it is safe to pass rq->cmd_flags directly to blk_fill_rwbs and
blk_fill_rwbs_rq isn't needed any more.With this patch, after a sync write we get:
write_test-2417 [000] 226.603878: block_rq_insert: 3,64 WS 0 () 258135 +=

if directory has so many subdirectories that its link count is set
to 1 (i.e. "can't tell accurately") and reiserfs_new_inode() fails,
we shouldn't decrement the parent's link count in cleanup path;
that's what DEC_DIR_INODE_NLINK() is for. As it is, we end up
with parent suddenly getting zero i_nlink, with very unpleasant
effects.Signed-off-by: Al Viro

commit 339412841d7 (RxRPC: Allow key payloads to be passed in XDR form)
broke klog for me. I notice the v1 key struct had a kif_version field
added:-struct rxkad_key {
- u16 security_index; /* RxRPC header security index */
- u16 ticket_len; /* length of ticket[] */
- u32 expiry; /* time at which expires */
- u32 kvno; /* key version number */
- u8 session_key[8]; /* DES session key */
- u8 ticket[0]; /* the encrypted ticket */
-};+struct rxrpc_key_data_v1 {
+ u32 kif_version; /* 1 */
+ u16 security_index;
+ u16 ticket_length;
+ u32 expiry; /* time_t */
+ u32 kvno;
+ u8 session_key[8];
+ u8 ticket[0];
+};However the code in rxrpc_instantiate strips it away:
data += sizeof(kver);
datalen -= sizeof(kver);Removing kif_version fixes my problem.
