* cipso: Add support for native local labeling and fixup mapping namesPaul Moore2008-10-106-36/+128
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch accomplishes three minor tasks: add a new tag type for local labeling, rename the CIPSO_V4_MAP_STD define to CIPSO_V4_MAP_TRANS and replace some of the CIPSO "magic numbers" with constants from the header file. The first change allows CIPSO to support full LSM labels/contexts, not just MLS attributes. The second change brings the mapping names inline with what userspace is using, compatibility is preserved since we don't actually change the value. The last change is to aid readability and help prevent mistakes. Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <paul.moore@hp.com>

* selinux: Cache NetLabel secattrs in the socket's security structPaul Moore2008-10-104-39/+91
| | | | | | | | | | | | Previous work enabled the use of address based NetLabel selectors, which while highly useful, brought the potential for additional per-packet overhead when used. This patch attempts to mitigate some of that overhead by caching the NetLabel security attribute struct within the SELinux socket security structure. This should help eliminate the need to recreate the NetLabel secattr structure for each packet resulting in less overhead.

* selinux: Set socket NetLabel based on connection endpointPaul Moore2008-10-108-37/+311
| | | | | | | | | | | | Previous work enabled the use of address based NetLabel selectors, which while highly useful, brought the potential for additional per-packet overhead when used. This patch attempts to solve that by applying NetLabel socket labels when sockets are connect()'d. This should alleviate the per-packet NetLabel labeling for all connected sockets (yes, it even works for connected DGRAM sockets).

* netlabel: Add functionality to set the security attributes of a packetPaul Moore2008-10-108-42/+393
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch builds upon the new NetLabel address selector functionality by providing the NetLabel KAPI and CIPSO engine support needed to enable the new packet-based labeling. The only new addition to the NetLabel KAPI at this point is shown below: * int netlbl_skbuff_setattr(skb, family, secattr) ... and is designed to be called from a Netfilter hook after the packet's IP header has been populated such as in the FORWARD or LOCAL_OUT hooks. This patch also provides the necessary SELinux hooks to support this new functionality. Smack support is not currently included due to uncertainty regarding the permissions needed to expand the Smack network access controls.

* netlabel: Add a generic way to create ordered linked lists of network addrsPaul Moore2008-10-104-216/+569
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Create an ordered IP address linked list mechanism similar to the core kernel's linked list construct. The idea behind this list functionality is to create an extensibile linked list ordered by IP address mask to ease the matching of network addresses. The linked list is ordered with larger address masks at the front of the list and shorter address masks at the end to facilitate overriding network entries with individual host or subnet entries.

* netlabel: Replace protocol/NetLabel linking with refrerence countsPaul Moore2008-10-108-266/+235
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | NetLabel has always had a list of backpointers in the CIPSO DOI definition structure which pointed to the NetLabel LSM domain mapping structures which referenced the CIPSO DOI struct. The rationale for this was that when an administrator removed a CIPSO DOI from the system all of the associated NetLabel LSM domain mappings should be removed as well; a list of backpointers made this a simple operation. Unfortunately, while the backpointers did make the removal easier they were a bit of a mess from an implementation point of view which was making further development difficult. Since the removal of a CIPSO DOI is a realtively rare event it seems to make sense to remove this backpointer list as the optimization was hurting us more then it was helping. However, we still need to be able to track when a CIPSO DOI definition is being used so replace the backpointer list with a reference count. In order to preserve the current functionality of removing the associated LSM domain mappings when a CIPSO DOI is removed we walk the LSM domain mapping table, removing the relevant entries.

* selinux: Fix a problem in security_netlbl_sid_to_secattr()Paul Moore2008-10-101-2/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently when SELinux fails to allocate memory in security_netlbl_sid_to_secattr() the NetLabel LSM domain field is set to NULL which triggers the default NetLabel LSM domain mapping which may not always be the desired mapping. This patch fixes this by returning an error when the kernel is unable to allocate memory. This could result in more failures on a system with heavy memory pressure but it is the "correct" thing to do. Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <paul.moore@hp.com> Acked-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org>
* selinux: Better local/forward check in selinux_ip_postroute()Paul Moore2008-10-101-45/+81
| | | | | | | | | | | | | It turns out that checking to see if skb->sk is NULL is not a very good indicator of a forwarded packet as some locally generated packets also have skb->sk set to NULL. Fix this by not only checking the skb->sk field but also the IP[6]CB(skb)->flags field for the IP[6]SKB_FORWARDED flag. While we are at it, we are calling selinux_parse_skb() much earlier than we really should resulting in potentially wasted cycles parsing packets for information we might no use; so shuffle the code around a bit to fix this.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | After some discussions with the Smack folks, well just Casey, I now have a better idea of what Smack wants out of NetLabel in the future so I think it is now safe to do some API "pruning". If another LSM comes along that needs this functionality we can always add it back in, but I don't see any LSMs on the horizon which might make use of these functions.

* Don't allow splice() to files opened with O_APPENDLinus Torvalds2008-10-091-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is debatable, but while we're debating it, let's disallow the combination of splice and an O_APPEND destination. It's not entirely clear what the semantics of O_APPEND should be, and POSIX apparently expects pwrite() to ignore O_APPEND, for example. So we could make up any semantics we want, including the old ones. But Miklos convinced me that we should at least give it some thought, and that accepting writes at arbitrary offsets is wrong at least for IS_APPEND() files (which always have O_APPEND set, even if the reverse isn't true: you can obviously have O_APPEND set on a regular file). So disallow O_APPEND entirely for now. I doubt anybody cares, and this way we have one less gray area to worry about.

The problem is really quite silly. We were trying to create parallelism where none was required. As netdev_run_todo always follows a RTNL section, and that todo tasks can only be added with the RTNL held, by definition you should only need to wait for the very ones that you've added and be done with it.

When removing the promiscous flag from the VLAN device afterwards, the promiscous count on the real device is decremented a second time by the vlan_change_rx_flags() callback. The root cause for this is that the ->change_rx_flags() callback is invoked while the device is down. The synchronization is meant to mirror the behaviour of the ->set_rx_mode callbacks, meaning the ->open function is responsible for doing a full sync on open, the ->close() function is responsible for doing full cleanup on ->stop() and ->change_rx_flags() is meant to do incremental changes while the device is UP.

I think the problem comes from "markers: fix duplicate modpost entry" (commit d35cb360c29956510b2fe1a953bd4968536f7216) Especially : - add_marker(mod, marker, fmt); + if (!mod->skip) + add_marker(mod, marker, fmt); } return; fail: Here is a fix that should take care if this problem.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The softlockup watchdog needs to be touched when resuming the from the kgdb stopped state to avoid the printk that a CPU is stuck if the debugger was active for longer than the softlockup threshold.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Stress-testing KVM's latest NMI support with kgdbts inside an SMP guest, I came across spurious unhandled NMIs while running the singlestep test. Looking closer at the code path each NMI takes when KGDB is enabled, I noticed that kgdb_nmicallback is called twice per event: One time via DIE_NMI_IPI notification, the second time on DIE_NMI. Removing the first invocation cures the unhandled NMIs here. Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com> Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com>
