Fix the security problem in the CIFS filesystem DNS lookup code in which a malicious redirect could be installed by a random user by simply adding a result record into one of their keyrings with add_key() and then invoking a CIFS CFS lookup [CVE-2010-2524]. This is done by creating an internal keyring specifically for the caching of DNS lookups. To enforce the use of this keyring, the module init routine creates a set of override credentials with the keyring installed as the thread keyring and instructs request_key() to only install lookup result keys in that keyring. The override is then applied around the call to request_key(). This has some additional benefits when a kernel service uses this module to request a key: (1) The result keys are owned by root, not the user that caused the lookup. (2) The result keys don't pop up in the user's keyrings. (3) The result keys don't come out of the quota of the user that caused the lookup. The keyring can be viewed as root by doing cat /proc/keys: 2a0ca6c3 I----- 1 perm 1f030000 0 0 keyring .dns_resolver: 1/4 It can then be listed with 'keyctl list' by root. # keyctl list 0x2a0ca6c3 1 key in keyring: 726766307: --alswrv 0 0 dns_resolver: foo.bar.com Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Reviewed-and-Tested-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Acked-by: Steve French <smfrench@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Roland McGrath authored
In the CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL fast-path for x86 64-bit system calls, we can pass a bad return value and/or error indication for the system call to audit_syscall_exit(). This happens when TIF_NEED_RESCHED was set as the system call returned, so we went out to schedule() and came back to the exit-audit fast-path. The fix is to reload the user return value register from the pt_regs before using it for audit_syscall_exit(). Both the 32-bit kernel's fast path and the 64-bit kernel's 32-bit system call fast paths work slightly differently, so that they always leave the fast path entirely to reschedule and don't return there, so they don't have the analogous bugs.

Immediately following an exit from the kdb shell the kgdb_connected variable should be set to zero, unless there are breakpoints planted. If the kgdb_connected variable is not zeroed out with kdb, it is impossible to turn off kdb. This patch is merely a work around for now, the real fix will check for the breakpoints.

In the process of merging kdb to the mainline, the kdb lsmod command stopped printing the base load address of kernel modules. This is needed for using kdb in conjunction with external tools such as gdb. Simply restore the functionality by adding a kdb_printf for the base load address of the kernel modules.

The gdbserial protocol handler should return an empty packet instead of an error string when ever it responds to a command it does not implement. The problem cases come from a debugger client sending qTBuffer, qTStatus, qSearch, qSupported. The incorrect response from the gdbstub leads the debugger clients to not function correctly. Recent versions of gdb will not detach correctly as a result of this behavior. Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Dongdong Deng <dongdong.deng@windriver.com>

We only add/remove crtcs at driver load, you cannot remove when the GPU is running a CS packet since the fd is open, when GPU hotplugging on radeons actually is needed all this locking needs a review and I've started re-working kms core locking to deal with this better. But for now avoid long delays in CS processing when hotplug detect is happening in a different thread. this fixes a regression introduced with hotplug detection.

Mikael Pettersson authored
The kernel's math-emu code contains a macro _FP_FROM_INT() which is used to convert an integer to a raw normalized floating-point value. It does this basically in three steps: 1. Compute the exponent from the number of leading zero bits. 2. Downshift large fractions to put the MSB in the right position for normalized fractions. 3. Upshift small fractions to put the MSB in the right position. There is an boundary error in step 2, causing a fraction with its MSB exactly one bit above the normalized MSB position to not be downshifted. This results in a non-normalized raw float, which when packed becomes a massively inaccurate representation for that input. The impact of this depends on a number of arch-specific factors, but it is known to have broken emulation of FXTOD instructions on UltraSPARC III, which was originally reported as GCC bug 44631 <http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=44631>. Any arch which uses math-emu to emulate conversions from integers to same-size floats may be affected. The fix is simple: the exponent comparison used to determine if the fraction should be downshifted must be "<=" not "<". I'm sending a kernel module to test this as a reply to this message. There are also SPARC user-space test cases in the GCC bug entry. Signed-off-by: Mikael Pettersson <mikpe@it.uu.se> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Paul E. McKenney authored
If a single-threaded process does a file-descriptor operation, and some other process accesses that same file descriptor via /proc, the current rcu_dereference_check_fdtable() can give a false-positive RCU-lockdep splat due to the reference count being increased by the /proc access after the reference-count check in fget_light() but before the check in rcu_dereference_check_fdtable(). This commit prevents this false positive by checking for a single-threaded process. To avoid #include hell, this commit uses the wrapper for thread_group_empty(current) defined by rcu_my_thread_group_empty() provided in a separate commit.

Commit e534c7c5 ("numa: x86_64: use generic percpu var numa_node_id() implementation") broke numa systems that don't have ram on node0 when MEMORY_HOTPLUG is enabled, because cpu_up() will call cpu_to_node() before per_cpu(numa_node) is setup for APs. When Node0 doesn't have RAM, on x86, cpus already round it to nearest node with RAM in x86_cpu_to_node_map. and per_cpu(numa_node) is not set up until in c_init for APs. When later cpu_up() calling cpu_to_node() will get 0 again, and make it online even there is no RAM on node0. so later all APs can not booted up, and later will have panic.

The last change to improve the scalability moved the actual wake-up out of the section that is protected by spin_lock(sma->sem_perm.lock). This means that IN_WAKEUP can be in queue.status even when the spinlock is acquired by the current task. Thus the same loop that is performed when queue.status is read without the spinlock acquired must be performed when the spinlock is acquired.
