Remove ARM26 header export.

2006-10-13T20:23:24+00:00

We ought to be able to use ARM headers; no need for special ARM26 version.

[PATCH] remove set_wmb - arch removal

2006-07-15T04:56:14+00:00

set_wmb should not be used in the kernel because it just confuses the
code more and has no benefit.  Since it is not currently used in the
kernel this patch removes it so that new code does not include it.

All archs define set_wmb(var, value) to do { var = value; wmb(); }
while(0) except ia64 and sparc which use a mb() instead.  But this is
still moot since it is not used anyway.

Hasn't been tested on any archs but x86 and x86_64 (and only compiled
tested)

[AF_UNIX]: Datagram getpeersec

2006-06-29T23:58:06+00:00

This patch implements an API whereby an application can determine the
label of its peer's Unix datagram sockets via the auxiliary data mechanism of
recvmsg.

Patch purpose:

This patch enables a security-aware application to retrieve the
security context of the peer of a Unix datagram socket.  The application
can then use this security context to determine the security context for
processing on behalf of the peer who sent the packet.

Patch design and implementation:

The design and implementation is very similar to the UDP case for INET
sockets.  Basically we build upon the existing Unix domain socket API for
retrieving user credentials.  Linux offers the API for obtaining user
credentials via ancillary messages (i.e., out of band/control messages
that are bundled together with a normal message).  To retrieve the security
context, the application first indicates to the kernel such desire by
setting the SO_PASSSEC option via getsockopt.  Then the application
retrieves the security context using the auxiliary data mechanism.

An example server application for Unix datagram socket should look like this:

toggle = 1;
toggle_len = sizeof(toggle);

setsockopt(sockfd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_PASSSEC, &toggle, &toggle_len);
recvmsg(sockfd, &msg_hdr, 0);
if (msg_hdr.msg_controllen > sizeof(struct cmsghdr)) {
    cmsg_hdr = CMSG_FIRSTHDR(&msg_hdr);
    if (cmsg_hdr->cmsg_len <= CMSG_LEN(sizeof(scontext)) &&
        cmsg_hdr->cmsg_level == SOL_SOCKET &&
        cmsg_hdr->cmsg_type == SCM_SECURITY) {
        memcpy(&scontext, CMSG_DATA(cmsg_hdr), sizeof(scontext));
    }
}

sock_setsockopt is enhanced with a new socket option SOCK_PASSSEC to allow
a server socket to receive security context of the peer.

Testing:

We have tested the patch by setting up Unix datagram client and server
applications.  We verified that the server can retrieve the security context
using the auxiliary data mechanism of recvmsg.

[PATCH] random: remove SA_SAMPLE_RANDOM from floppy driver

2006-06-25T17:01:00+00:00

The floppy driver is already calling add_disk_randomness as it should, so this
was redundant.

[PATCH] adjust handle_IRR_event() return type

2006-06-23T14:43:08+00:00

Correct the return type of handle_IRQ_event() (inconsistency noticed during
Xen development), and remove redundant declarations.  The return type
adjustment required breaking out the definition of irqreturn_t into a
separate header, in order to satisfy current include order dependencies.

Add empty Kbuild files for 'make headers_install' in remaining arches.

2006-06-18T11:58:53+00:00

These include nothing more than the basic set of files listed in
asm-generic/Kbuild.asm. Any extra arch-specific files will need to be
added.

Remove unneeded _syscallX macros from user view in asm-*/unistd.h

2006-04-29T00:51:47+00:00

These aren't needed by glibc or klibc, and they're broken in some cases
anyway. The uClibc folks are apparently switching over to stop using
them too (now that we agreed that they should be dropped, at least).
