[ Upstream commit 6a480a7842545ec520a91730209ec0bae41694c1 ]

First of all, trying to open them r/w is idiocy; it's guaranteed to fail.
Moreover, assigning -&gt;f_pos and assuming that everything will work is
blatantly broken - try that with e.g. tmpfs as underlying layer and watch
the fireworks.  There may be a non-trivial amount of state associated with
current IO position, well beyond the numeric offset.  Using the single
struct file associated with underlying inode is really not a good idea;
we ought to open one for each ecryptfs directory struct file.

Additionally, file_operations both for directories and non-directories are
full of pointless methods; non-directories should *not* have -&gt;iterate(),
directories should not have -&gt;flush(), -&gt;fasync() and -&gt;splice_read().

commit f0fe970df3838c202ef6c07a4c2b36838ef0a88b upstream.

There are legitimate reasons to disallow mmap on certain files, notably
in sysfs or procfs.  We shouldn't emulate mmap support on file systems
that don't offer support natively.

commit 78c4e172412de5d0456dc00d2b34050aa0b683b5 upstream.

This reverts commit 2f36db71009304b3f0b95afacd8eba1f9f046b87.

It fixed a local root exploit but also introduced a dependency on
the lower file system implementing an mmap operation just to open a file,
which is a bit of a heavy hammer.  The right fix is to have mmap depend
on the existence of the mmap handler instead.

commit 2f36db71009304b3f0b95afacd8eba1f9f046b87 upstream.

This prevents users from triggering a stack overflow through a recursive
invocation of pagefault handling that involves mapping procfs files into
virtual memory.

Merge the type-specific data with the payload data into one four-word chunk
as it seems pointless to keep them separate.

Use user_key_payload() for accessing the payloads of overloaded
user-defined keys.

The key_put() function tests whether its argument is NULL and then
returns immediately. Thus the test around this call might not be needed.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

Consider eCryptfs dcache entries to be stale when the corresponding
lower inode's i_nlink count is zero. This solves a problem caused by the
lower inode being directly modified, without going through the eCryptfs
mount, leaving stale eCryptfs dentries cached and the eCryptfs inode's
i_nlink count not being cleared.
