      KEYS/DNS: Fix ____call_usermodehelper() to not lose the session keyring · 87966996
      David Howells authored
      ____call_usermodehelper() now erases any credentials set by the
      subprocess_inf::init() function.  The problem is that commit
      17f60a7d ("capabilites: allow the application of capability limits
      to usermode helpers") creates and commits new credentials with
      prepare_kernel_cred() after the call to the init() function.  This wipes
      all keyrings after umh_keys_init() is called.
      
      The best way to deal with this is to put the init() call just prior to
      the commit_creds() call, and pass the cred pointer to init().  That
      means that umh_keys_init() and suchlike can modify the credentials
      _before_ they are published and potentially in use by the rest of the
      system.
      
      This prevents request_key() from working as it is prevented from passing
      the session keyring it set up with the authorisation token to
      /sbin/request-key, and so the latter can't assume the authority to
      instantiate the key.  This causes the in-kernel DNS resolver to fail
      with ENOKEY unconditionally.
