      TPM: Retry SaveState command in suspend path · 32d33b29
      Duncan Laurie authored 
      If the TPM has already been sent a SaveState command before the driver
is loaded it may have problems sending that same command again later.

This issue is seen with the Chromebook Pixel due to a firmware bug in
the legacy mode boot path which is sending the SaveState command
before booting the kernel.  More information is available at
http://crbug.com/203524

This change introduces a retry of the SaveState command in the suspend
path in order to work around this issue.  A future firmware update
should fix this but this is also a trivial workaround in the driver
that has no effect on systems that do not show this problem.

When this does happen the TPM responds with a non-fatal TPM_RETRY code
that is defined in the specification:

  The TPM is too busy to respond to the command immediately, but the
  command could be resubmitted at a later time.  The TPM MAY return
  TPM_RETRY for any command at any time.

It can take several seconds before the TPM will respond again.  I
measured a typical time between 3 and 4 seconds and the timeout is set
at a safe 5 seconds.

It is also possible to reproduce this with commands via /dev/tpm0.
The bug linked above has a python script attached which can be used to
test for this problem.  I tested a variety of TPMs from Infineon,
Nuvoton, Atmel, and STMicro but was only able to reproduce this with
LPC and I2C TPMs from Infineon.

The TPM specification only loosely defines this behavior:

  TPM Main Level 2 Part 3 v1.2 r116, section 3.3. TPM_SaveState:
  The TPM MAY declare all preserved values invalid in response to any
  command other than TPM_Init.

  TCG PC Client BIOS Spec 1.21 section 8.3.1.
  After issuing a TPM_SaveState command, the OS SHOULD NOT issue TPM
  commands before transitioning to S3 without issuing another
  TPM_SaveState command.

  TCG PC Client TIS 1.21, section 4. Power Management:
  The TPM_SaveState command allows a Static OS to indicate to the TPM
  that the platform may enter a low power state where the TPM will be
  required to enter into the D3 power state.  The use of the term "may"
  is significant in that there is no requirement for the platform to
  actually enter the low power state after sending the TPM_SaveState
  command.  The software may, in fact, send subsequent commands after
  sending the TPM_SaveState command.

      selinux: make security_sb_clone_mnt_opts return an error on context mismatch · 094f7b69
      Jeff Layton authored 
      I had the following problem reported a while back. If you mount the
same filesystem twice using NFSv4 with different contexts, then the
second context= option is ignored. For instance:

    # mount server:/export /mnt/test1
    # mount server:/export /mnt/test2 -o context=system_u:object_r:tmp_t:s0
    # ls -dZ /mnt/test1
    drwxrwxrwt. root root system_u:object_r:nfs_t:s0       /mnt/test1
    # ls -dZ /mnt/test2
    drwxrwxrwt. root root system_u:object_r:nfs_t:s0       /mnt/test2

When we call into SELinux to set the context of a "cloned" superblock,
it will currently just bail out when it notices that we're reusing an
existing superblock. Since the existing superblock is already set up and
presumably in use, we can't go overwriting its context with the one from
the "original" sb. Because of this, the second context= option in this
case cannot take effect.

This patch fixes this by turning security_sb_clone_mnt_opts into an int
return operation. When it finds that the "new" superblock that it has
been handed is already set up, it checks to see whether the contexts on
the old superblock match it. If it does, then it will just return
success, otherwise it'll return -EBUSY and emit a printk to tell the
admin why the second mount failed.

Note that this patch may cause casualties. The NFSv4 code relies on
being able to walk down to an export from the pseudoroot. If you mount
filesystems that are nested within one another with different contexts,
then this patch will make those mounts fail in new and "exciting" ways.

For instance, suppose that /export is a separate filesystem on the
server:

    # mount server:/ /mnt/test1
    # mount salusa:/export /mnt/test2 -o context=system_u:object_r:tmp_t:s0
    mount.nfs: an incorrect mount option was specified

...with the printk in the ring buffer. Because we *might* eventually
walk down to /mnt/test1/export, the mount is denied due to this patch.
The second mount needs the pseudoroot superblock, but that's already
present with the wrong context.

OTOH, if we mount these in the reverse order, then both mounts work,
because the pseudoroot superblock created when mounting /export is
discarded once that mount is done. If we then however try to walk into
that directory, the automount fails for the similar reasons:

    # cd /mnt/test1/scratch/
    -bash: cd: /mnt/test1/scratch: Device or resource busy

The story I've gotten from the SELinux folks that I've talked to is that
this is desirable behavior. In SELinux-land, mounting the same data
under different contexts is wrong -- there can be only one.

      Fix NULL pointer dereference in smack_inode_unlink() and smack_inode_rmdir() · cdb56b60
      Igor Zhbanov authored 
      This patch fixes kernel Oops because of wrong common_audit_data type
in smack_inode_unlink() and smack_inode_rmdir().

When SMACK security module is enabled and SMACK logging is on (/smack/logging
is not zero) and you try to delete the file which
1) you cannot delete due to SMACK rules and logging of failures is on
or
2) you can delete and logging of success is on,

you will see following:

	Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 000002d7

	[<...>] (strlen+0x0/0x28)
	[<...>] (audit_log_untrustedstring+0x14/0x28)
	[<...>] (common_lsm_audit+0x108/0x6ac)
	[<...>] (smack_log+0xc4/0xe4)
	[<...>] (smk_curacc+0x80/0x10c)
	[<...>] (smack_inode_unlink+0x74/0x80)
	[<...>] (security_inode_unlink+0x2c/0x30)
	[<...>] (vfs_unlink+0x7c/0x100)
	[<...>] (do_unlinkat+0x144/0x16c)

The function smack_inode_unlink() (and smack_inode_rmdir()) need
to log two structures of different types. First of all it does:

	smk_ad_init(&ad, __func__, LSM_AUDIT_DATA_DENTRY);
	smk_ad_setfield_u_fs_path_dentry(&ad, dentry);

This will set common audit data type to LSM_AUDIT_DATA_DENTRY
and store dentry for auditing (by function smk_curacc(), which in turn calls
dump_common_audit_data(), which is actually uses provided data and logs it).

	/*
	 * You need write access to the thing you're unlinking
	 */
	rc = smk_curacc(smk_of_inode(ip), MAY_WRITE, &ad);
	if (rc == 0) {
		/*
		 * You also need write access to the containing directory
		 */

Then this function wants to log anoter data:

		smk_ad_setfield_u_fs_path_dentry(&ad, NULL);
		smk_ad_setfield_u_fs_inode(&ad, dir);

The function sets inode field, but don't change common_audit_data type.

		rc = smk_curacc(smk_of_inode(dir), MAY_WRITE, &ad);
	}

So the dump_common_audit() function incorrectly interprets inode structure
as dentry, and Oops will happen.

This patch reinitializes common_audit_data structures with correct type.
Also I removed unneeded
	smk_ad_setfield_u_fs_path_dentry(&ad, NULL);
initialization, because both dentry and inode pointers are stored
in the same union.

 "This is three simple fixes against 3.9-rc1.  I have tested each of
  these fixes and verified they work correctly.

  The userns oops in key_change_session_keyring and the BUG_ON triggered

  I am including the enhancement for mount to only trigger requests of
  filesystem modules here instead of delaying this for the 3.10 merge
  window because it is both trivial and the kind of change that tends to
  bit-rot if left untouched for two months."

      Atmel MXT touchscreen: increase reset timeouts · 8343bce1
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      There is a more complete atmel patch-series out by Nick Dyer that fixes
this and other things, but in the meantime this is the minimal thing to
get the touchscreen going on (at least my) Pixel Chromebook.

Not that I want my dirty fingers near that beautiful screen, but it
seems that a non-initialized touchscreen will also end up being a
constant wakeup source, so you have to disable it to go to sleep.  And
it's easier to just fix the initialization sequence.

      proc: Use nd_jump_link in proc_ns_follow_link · db04dc67
      Eric W. Biederman authored 
      Update proc_ns_follow_link to use nd_jump_link instead of just
manually updating nd.path.dentry.

This fixes the BUG_ON(nd->inode != parent->d_inode) reported by Dave
Jones and reproduced trivially with mkdir /proc/self/ns/uts/a.

Sigh it looks like the VFS change to require use of nd_jump_link
happend while proc_ns_follow_link was baking and since the common case
of proc_ns_follow_link continued to work without problems the need for
making this change was overlooked.
