If install_session_keyring() is given a keyring, it should install it rather than just creating a new one anyway. This was accidentally broken in: commit d84f4f99 Author: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Date: Fri Nov 14 10:39:23 2008 +1100 Subject: CRED: Inaugurate COW credentials The impact of that commit is that pam_keyinit no longer works correctly if 'force' isn't specified against a login process. This is because: keyctl_get_keyring_ID(KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING, 0) now always creates a new session keyring and thus the check whether the session keyring and the user-session keyring are the same is always false. This leads pam_keyinit to conclude that a session keyring is installed and it shouldn't be revoked by pam_keyinit here if 'revoke' is specified. Any system that specifies 'force' against pam_keyinit in the PAM configuration files for login methods (login, ssh, su -l, kdm, etc.) is not affected since that bypasses the broken check and forces the creation of a new session keyring anyway (for which the revoke flag is not cleared) - and any subsequent call to pam_keyinit really does have a session keyring already installed, and so the check works correctly there. Reverting to the previous behaviour will cause the kernel to subscribe the process to the user-session keyring as its session keyring if it doesn't have a session keyring of its own. pam_keyinit will detect this and install a new session keyring anyway (and won't clear the revert flag). This can be tested by commenting out pam_keyinit in the /etc/pam.d files and running the following program a couple of times in a row: #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <keyutils.h> int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { key_serial_t uk, usk, sk; uk = keyctl_get_keyring_ID(KEY_SPEC_USER_KEYRING, 0); usk = keyctl_get_keyring_ID(KEY_SPEC_USER_SESSION_KEYRING, 0); sk = keyctl_get_keyring_ID(KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING, 0); printf("keys: %08x %08x %08x\n", uk, usk, sk); return 0; } Without the patch, I see: keys: 3884e281 24c4dfcf 22825f8e keys: 3884e281 24c4dfcf 068772be With the patch, I see: keys: 26be9c83 0e755ce0 0e755ce0 keys: 26be9c83 0e755ce0 0e755ce0 As can be seen, with the patch, the session keyring is the same as the user-session keyring each time; without the patch a new session keyring is generated each time.

Although the EVM encrypted-key should be encrypted/decrypted using a trusted-key, a user-defined key could be used instead. When using a user- defined key, a TCG_TPM dependency should not be required. Unfortunately, the encrypted-key code needs to be refactored a bit in order to remove this dependency. This patch adds the TCG_TPM dependency.

A task (when !SECURE_NOROOT) which executes a setuid-root binary will obtain root privileges while executing that binary. If the binary also has effective capabilities set, then only those capabilities will be granted. The rationale is that the same binary can carry both setuid-root and the minimal file capability set, so that on a filesystem not supporting file caps the binary can still be executed with privilege, while on a filesystem supporting file caps it will run with minimal privilege. This special case currently does NOT happen if there are file capabilities but no effective capabilities. Since capability-aware programs can very well start with empty pE but populated pP and move those caps to pE when needed. In other words, if the file has file capabilities but NOT effective capabilities, then we should do the same thing as if there were file capabilities, and not grant full root privileges. This patchset does that. (Changelog by Serge Hallyn). Signed-off-by: Zhi Li <lizhi1215@gmail.com> Acked-by: Serge Hallyn <serge.hallyn@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org>

Since commit 1eb19a12 ("lib/sha1: use the git implementation of SHA-1"), the ARM SHA1 routines no longer work. The reason? They depended on the larger 320-byte workspace, and now the sha1 workspace is just 16 words (64 bytes). So the assembly version would overwrite the stack randomly. The optimized asm version is also probably slower than the new improved C version, so there's no reason to keep it around. At least that was the case in git, where what appears to be the same assembly language version was removed two years ago because the optimized C BLK_SHA1 code was faster.

The inode structure layout is largely random, and some of the vfs paths really do care. The path lookup in particular is already quite D$ intensive, and profiles show that accessing the 'inode->i_op->xyz' fields is quite costly. We already optimized the dcache to not unnecessarily load the d_op structure for members that are often NULL using the DCACHE_OP_xyz bits in dentry->d_flags, and this does something very similar for the inode ops that are used during pathname lookup. It also re-orders the fields so that the fields accessed by 'stat' are together at the beginning of the inode structure, and roughly in the order accessed. The effect of this seems to be in the 1-2% range for an empty kernel "make -j" run (which is fairly kernel-intensive, mostly in filename lookup), so it's visible. The numbers are fairly noisy, though, and likely depend a lot on exact microarchitecture. So there's more tuning to be done. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Gcc tends to generate better code with small integers, including the DCACHE_xyz flag tests - so move the common ones to be first in the list. Also just remove the unused DCACHE_INOTIFY_PARENT_WATCHED and DCACHE_AUTOFS_PENDING values, their users no longer exists in the source tree. And add a "unlikely()" to the DCACHE_OP_COMPARE test, since we want the common case to be a nice straight-line fall-through. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

ORE stands for "Objects Raid Engine" This patch is a mechanical rename of everything that was in ios.c and its API declaration to an ore.c and an osd_ore.h header. The ore engine will later be used by the pnfs objects layout driver. * File ios.c => ore.c * Declaration of types and API are moved from exofs.h to a new osd_ore.h * All used types are prefixed by ore_ from their exofs_ name. * Shift includes from exofs.h to osd_ore.h so osd_ore.h is independent, include it from exofs.h. Other than a pure rename there are no other changes. Next patch will move the ore into it's own module and will export the API to be used by exofs and later the layout driver Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

Exofs raid engine was saving on memory space by having a single layout-info, single pid, and a single device-table, global to the filesystem. Then passing a credential and object_id info at the io_state level, private for each inode. It would also devise this contraption of rotating the device table view for each inode->ino to spread out the device usage. This is not compatible with the pnfs-objects standard, demanding that each inode can have it's own layout-info, device-table, and each object component it's own pid, oid and creds. So: Bring exofs raid engine to be usable for generic pnfs-objects use by: * Define an exofs_comp structure that holds obj_id and credential info. * Break up exofs_layout struct to an exofs_components structure that holds a possible array of exofs_comp and the array of devices + the size of the arrays. * Add a "comps" parameter to get_io_state() that specifies the ids creds and device array to use for each IO. This enables to keep the layout global, but the device-table view, creds and IDs at the inode level. It only adds two 64bit to each inode, since some of these members already existed in another form. * ios raid engine now access layout-info and comps-info through the passed pointers. Everything is pre-prepared by caller for generic access of these structures and arrays. At the exofs Level: * Super block holds an exofs_components struct that holds the device array, previously in layout. The devices there are in device-table order. The device-array is twice bigger and repeats the device-table twice so now each inode's device array can point to a random device and have a round-robin view of the table, making it compatible to previous exofs versions. * Each inode has an exofs_components struct that is initialized at load time, with it's own view of the device table IDs and creds. When doing IO this gets passed to the io_state together with the layout. While preforming this change. Bugs where found where credentials with the wrong IDs where used to access the different SB objects (super.c). As well as some dead code. It was never noticed because the target we use does not check the credentials. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

In future raid code we will need to know the IO offset/length and if it's a read or write to determine some of the array sizes we'll need. So add a new exofs_get_rw_state() API for use when writeing/reading. All other simple cases are left using the old way. The major change to this is that now we need to call exofs_get_io_state later at inode.c::read_exec and inode.c::write_exec when we actually know these things. So this patch is kept separate so I can test things apart from other changes. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>

Computers have become a lot faster since we compromised on the partial MD4 hash which we use currently for performance reasons. MD5 is a much safer choice, and is inline with both RFC1948 and other ISS generators (OpenBSD, Solaris, etc.) Furthermore, only having 24-bits of the sequence number be truly unpredictable is a very serious limitation. So the periodic regeneration and 8-bit counter have been removed. We compute and use a full 32-bit sequence number. For ipv6, DCCP was found to use a 32-bit truncated initial sequence number (it needs 43-bits) and that is fixed here as well.
