…d avoiding waking kswapd
__GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold
spinlocks or are in interrupts. They are expected to be high priority and
have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred
to as the "atomic reserve". __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first
lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve".Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options
were available. Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where
an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic
reserves.This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic,
cannot sleep and have no alternative. High priority users continue to use
__GFP_HIGH. __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and
are willing to enter direct reclaim. __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify
callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim. __GFP_WAIT is
redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake
kswapd for background reclaim.This patch then converts a number of sites
o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory
pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag.o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear
__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall
into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves
are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress.o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the
helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because
checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false
positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent
is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to
flag manipulations.o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL
and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT
and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons.
In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH.The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of
GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL. They may
now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. It's almost certainly harmless
if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net>

There are several reports of the kernel losing contact with auditd when
it is, in fact, still running. When this happens, kernel syslogs show:
"audit: *NO* daemon at audit_pid="
although auditd is still running, and is apparently happy, listening on
the netlink socket. The pid in the "*NO* daemon" message matches the pid
of the running auditd process. Restarting auditd solves this.The problem appears to happen randomly, and doesn't seem to be strongly
correlated to the rate of audit events being logged. The problem
happens fairly regularly (every few days), but not yet reproduced to
order.On production kernels, BUG_ON() is a no-op, so any error will trigger
this.Commit 34eab0a7cd45 ("audit: prevent an older auditd shutdown from
orphaning a newer auditd startup") eliminates one possible cause. This
isn't the case here, since the PID in the error message and the PID of
the running auditd match.The primary expected cause of error here is -ECONNREFUSED when the audit
daemon goes away, when netlink_getsockbyportid() can't find the auditd
portid entry in the netlink audit table (or there is no receive
function). If -EPERM is returned, that situation isn't likely to be
resolved in a timely fashion without administrator intervention. In
both cases, reset the audit_pid. This does not rule out a race
condition. SELinux is expected to return zero since this isn't an INET
or INET6 socket. Other LSMs may have other return codes. Log the error
code for better diagnosis in the future.In the case of -ENOMEM, the situation could be temporary, based on local
or general availability of buffers. -EAGAIN should never happen since
the netlink audit (kernel) socket is set to MAX_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT.
-ERESTARTSYS and -EINTR are not expected since this kernel thread is not
expected to receive signals. In these cases (or any other unexpected
ones for now), report the error and re-schedule the thread, retrying up
to 5 times.v2:

Netlink families can exist in multiple namespaces, and for the most
part multicast subscriptions are per network namespace. Thus it only
makes sense to have bind/unbind notifications per network namespace.To achieve this, pass the network namespace of a given client socket
to the bind/unbind functions.Also do this in generic netlink, and there also make sure that any
bind for multicast groups that only exist in init_net is rejected.
This isn't really a problem if it is accepted since a client in a
different namespace will never receive any notifications from such
a group, but it can confuse the family if not rejected (it's also
possible to silently (without telling the family) accept it, but it
would also have to be ignored on unbind so families that take any
kind of action on bind/unbind won't do unnecessary work for invalid
clients like that.Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

The version field defined in the audit status structure was found to have
limitations in terms of its expressibility of features supported. This is
distict from the get/set features call to be able to command those features
that are present.Converting this field from a version number to a feature bitmap will allow
distributions to selectively backport and support certain features and will
allow upstream to be able to deprecate features in the future. It will allow
userspace clients to first query the kernel for which features are actually
present and supported. Currently, EINVAL is returned rather than EOPNOTSUP,
which isn't helpful in determining if there was an error in the command, or if
it simply isn't supported yet. Past features are not represented by this
bitmap, but their use may be converted to EOPNOTSUP if needed in the future.Since "version" is too generic to convert with a #define, use a union in the
struct status, introducing the member "feature_bitmap" unionized with
"version".Convert existing AUDIT_VERSION_* macros over to AUDIT_FEATURE_BITMAP*
counterparts, leaving the former for backwards compatibility.Signed-off-by: Richard Guy Briggs

The kauditd_thread wait loop is a bit iffy; it has a number of problems:
- calls try_to_freeze() before schedule(); you typically want the
thread to re-evaluate the sleep condition when unfreezing, also
freeze_task() issues a wakeup.- it unconditionally does the {add,remove}_wait_queue(), even when the
sleep condition is false.Use wait_event_freezable() that does the right thing.

Pull audit updates from Eric Paris:
"So this change across a whole bunch of arches really solves one basic
problem. We want to audit when seccomp is killing a process. seccomp
hooks in before the audit syscall entry code. audit_syscall_entry
took as an argument the arch of the given syscall. Since the arch is
part of what makes a syscall number meaningful it's an important part
of the record, but it isn't available when seccomp shoots the
syscall...For most arch's we have a better way to get the arch (syscall_get_arch)
So the solution was two fold: Implement syscall_get_arch() everywhere
there is audit which didn't have it. Use syscall_get_arch() in the
seccomp audit code. Having syscall_get_arch() everywhere meant it was
a useless flag on the stack and we could get rid of it for the typical
syscall entry.The other changes inside the audit system aren't grand, fixed some
records that had invalid spaces. Better locking around the task comm
field. Removing some dead functions and structs. Make some things
static. Really minor stuff"* git://git.infradead.org/users/eparis/audit: (31 commits)
audit: rename audit_log_remove_rule to disambiguate for trees
audit: cull redundancy in audit_rule_change
audit: WARN if audit_rule_change called illegally

audit: remove open_arg() function that is never used
audit: correct AUDIT_GET_FEATURE return message type
audit: set nlmsg_len for multicast messages.
audit: use union for audit_field values since they are mutually exclusive
audit: invalid op= values for rules
audit: use atomic_t to simplify audit_serial()
kernel/audit.c: use ARRAY_SIZE instead of sizeof/sizeof[0]
audit: reduce scope of audit_log_fcaps
audit: reduce scope of audit_net_id
audit: arm64: Remove the audit arch argument to audit_syscall_entry
arm64: audit: Add audit hook in syscall_trace_enter/exit()

When task->comm is passed directly to audit_log_untrustedstring() without
getting a copy or using the task_lock, there is a race that could happen that
would output a NULL (\0) in the output string that would effectively truncate
the rest of the report text after the comm= field in the audit, losing fields.Use get_task_comm() to get a copy while acquiring the task_lock to prevent
this and to prevent the result from being a mixture of old and new values of
comm.Signed-off-by: Tetsuo Handa

When an AUDIT_GET_FEATURE message is sent from userspace to the kernel, it
should reply with a message tagged as an AUDIT_GET_FEATURE type with a struct
audit_feature. The current reply is a message tagged as an AUDIT_GET
type with a struct audit_feature.This appears to have been a cut-and-paste-eo in commit b0fed40.

Report:
Looking at your example code in
http://people.redhat.com/rbriggs/audit-multicast-listen/audit-multicast-listen.c,
it seems that nlmsg_len field in the received messages is supposed to
contain the length of the header + payload, but it is always set to the
size of the header only, i.e. 16. The example program works, because
the printf format specifies the minimum width, not "precision", so it
simply prints out the payload until the first zero byte. This isn't too
much of a problem, but precludes the use of recvmmsg, iiuc?(gdb) p *(struct nlmsghdr*)nlh
$14 = {nlmsg_len = 16, nlmsg_type = 1100, nlmsg_flags = 0, nlmsg_seq = 0, nlmsg_pid = 9910}The only time nlmsg_len would have been updated was at audit_buffer_alloc()
inside audit_log_start() and never updated after. It should arguably be done
in audit_log_vformat(), but would be more efficient in audit_log_end().Reported-by: Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
