Currently ioprio_best function first checks wethere aioprio or bioprio equals IOPRIO_CLASS_NONE (ioprio_valid() macros does that) and if it is so it returns bioprio/aioprio appropriately. Thus the next four lines, that set aclass/bclass to IOPRIO_CLASS_BE, if aclass/bclass == IOPRIO_CLASS_NONE, are never executed. The second problem: if aioprio from class IOPRIO_CLASS_NONE and bioprio from class IOPRIO_CLASS_IDLE are passed to ioprio_best function, it will return IOPRIO_CLASS_IDLE. It means that during __make_request we can merge two requests and set the priority of merged request to IDLE, while one of the initial requests originates from a process with NONE (default) priority. So we can get a situation when a process with default ioprio will experience IO starvation, while there is no process from real-time class in the system. Just removing ioprio_valid check should correct situation. Signed-off-by: Vasily Tarasov <vtaras@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

If more than one file descriptor was sent with an SCM_RIGHTS message, and on the receiving end, after installing a nonzero (but not all) file descritpors the process runs out of fds, then the already installed fds will be lost (userspace will have no way of knowing about them). The following patch makes sure, that at least the already installed fds are sent to userspace. It doesn't solve the issue of losing file descriptors in case of an EFAULT on the userspace buffer.

When doing receiver buffer accounting, we always used skb->truesize. This is problematic when processing bundled DATA chunks because for every DATA chunk that could be small part of one large skb, we would charge the size of the entire skb. The new approach is to store the size of the DATA chunk we are accounting for in the sctp_ulpevent structure and use that stored value for accounting.

This patch fixes two bugs in policydb_destroy. Two list pointers (policydb.ocontexts[i] and policydb.genfs) were not being reset to NULL when the lists they pointed to were being freed. This caused a problem when the initial policy load failed, as the policydb being destroyed was not a temporary new policydb that was thrown away, but rather was the global (active) policydb. Consequently, later functions, particularly sys_bind->selinux_socket_bind->security_node_sid and do_rw_proc->selinux_sysctl->selinux_proc_get_sid->security_genfs_sid tried to dereference memory that had previously been freed.

Currently when an IPSec policy rule doesn't specify a security context, it is assumed to be "unlabeled" by SELinux, and so the IPSec policy rule fails to match to a flow that it would otherwise match to, unless one has explicitly added an SELinux policy rule allowing the flow to "polmatch" to the "unlabeled" IPSec policy rules. In the absence of such an explicitly added SELinux policy rule, the IPSec policy rule fails to match and so the packet(s) flow in clear text without the otherwise applicable xfrm(s) applied. The above SELinux behavior violates the SELinux security notion of "deny by default" which should actually translate to "encrypt by default" in the above case. This was first reported by Evgeniy Polyakov and the way James Morris was seeing the problem was when connecting via IPsec to a confined service on an SELinux box (vsftpd), which did not have the appropriate SELinux policy permissions to send packets via IPsec. With this patch applied, SELinux "polmatching" of flows Vs. IPSec policy rules will only come into play when there's a explicit context specified for the IPSec policy rule (which also means there's corresponding SELinux policy allowing appropriate domains/flows to polmatch to this context). Secondly, when a security module is loaded (in this case, SELinux), the security_xfrm_policy_lookup() hook can return errors other than access denied, such as -EINVAL. We were not handling that correctly, and in fact inverting the return logic and propagating a false "ok" back up to xfrm_lookup(), which then allowed packets to pass as if they were not associated with an xfrm policy. The solution for this is to first ensure that errno values are correctly propagated all the way back up through the various call chains from security_xfrm_policy_lookup(), and handled correctly. Then, flow_cache_lookup() is modified, so that if the policy resolver fails (typically a permission denied via the security module), the flow cache entry is killed rather than having a null policy assigned (which indicates that the packet can pass freely). This also forces any future lookups for the same flow to consult the security module (e.g. SELinux) for current security policy (rather than, say, caching the error on the flow cache entry). This patch: Fix the selinux side of things. This makes sure SELinux polmatching of flow contexts to IPSec policy rules comes into play only when an explicit context is associated with the IPSec policy rule. Also, this no longer defaults the context of a socket policy to the context of the socket since the "no explicit context" case is now handled properly.

When a security module is loaded (in this case, SELinux), the security_xfrm_policy_lookup() hook can return an access denied permission (or other error). We were not handling that correctly, and in fact inverting the return logic and propagating a false "ok" back up to xfrm_lookup(), which then allowed packets to pass as if they were not associated with an xfrm policy. The way I was seeing the problem was when connecting via IPsec to a confined service on an SELinux box (vsftpd), which did not have the appropriate SELinux policy permissions to send packets via IPsec. The first SYNACK would be blocked, because of an uncached lookup via flow_cache_lookup(), which would fail to resolve an xfrm policy because the SELinux policy is checked at that point via the resolver. However, retransmitted SYNACKs would then find a cached flow entry when calling into flow_cache_lookup() with a null xfrm policy, which is interpreted by xfrm_lookup() as the packet not having any associated policy and similarly to the first case, allowing it to pass without transformation. The solution presented here is to first ensure that errno values are correctly propagated all the way back up through the various call chains from security_xfrm_policy_lookup(), and handled correctly. Then, flow_cache_lookup() is modified, so that if the policy resolver fails (typically a permission denied via the security module), the flow cache entry is killed rather than having a null policy assigned (which indicates that the packet can pass freely).

Testing revealed a problem with the NetLabel cache where a cached entry could be freed while in use by the LSM layer causing an oops and other problems.

However, sparc vmlinux has plenty of relocatable sections because it is being built with 'ld -r' (to allow for btfixup processing). So for sparc, modpost does do a lot of checking. Sure enough, running modpost on arch/sparc/boot/image yields no output (i.e. all is well). modpost.c check_sec_ref() has: /* We want to process only relocation sections and not .init */ if (sechdrs[i].sh_type == SHT_RELA) { // check here } else if (sechdrs[i].sh_type == SHT_REL) { // check here } Signed-off-by: Martin Habets <errandir_news@mph.eclipse.co.uk> Signed-off-by: David S.

Paul Mundt authored
Kill off interrupt_table for all of the CPU subtypes, we now default in to stepping in to do_IRQ() for _all_ IRQ exceptions and counting the spurious ones, rather than simply flipping on the ones we cared about. This and enabling the IRQ by default automatically has already uncovered a couple of bugs and IRQs that weren't being caught, as well as some that are being generated far too often (SCI Tx Data Empty, for example). The general rationale is to use a marker for interrupt exceptions, test for it in the handle_exception() path, and skip out to do_IRQ() if it's found. Everything else follows the same behaviour of finding the cached EXPEVT value in r2/r2_bank, we just rip out the INTEVT read from entry.S entirely (except for in the kGDB NMI case, which is another matter). Note that while this changes the do_IRQ() semantics regarding r4 handling, they were fundamentally broken anyways (relying entirely on r2_bank for the cached code). With this, we do the INTEVT read from do_IRQ() itself (in the CONFIG_CPU_HAS_INTEVT case), or fall back on r4 for the muxed IRQ number, which should also be closer to what SH-2 and SH-2A want anyways.
