<title>netlabel: Initial support for the CALIPSO netlink protocol.</title>

<content type='text'>
CALIPSO is a packet labelling protocol for IPv6 which is very similar
to CIPSO.  It is specified in RFC 5570.  Much of the code is based on
the current CIPSO code.

This adds support for adding passthrough-type CALIPSO DOIs through the
NLBL_CALIPSO_C_ADD command.  It requires attributes:

 NLBL_CALIPSO_A_TYPE which must be CALIPSO_MAP_PASS.
 NLBL_CALIPSO_A_DOI.

In passthrough mode the CALIPSO engine will map MLS secattr levels
and categories directly to the packet label.

At this stage, the major difference between this and the CIPSO
code is that IPv6 may be compiled as a module.  To allow for
this the CALIPSO functions are registered at module init time.

<title>audit: stop an old auditd being starved out by a new auditd</title>

<id>133e1e5acd4a63c4a0dcc413e90d5decdbce9c4a</id>
<content type='text'>
Nothing prevents a new auditd starting up and replacing a valid
audit_pid when an old auditd is still running, effectively starving out
the old auditd since audit_pid no longer points to the old valid
auditd.

If no message to auditd has been attempted since auditd died
unnaturally or got killed, audit_pid will still indicate it is alive.
There isn't an easy way to detect if an old auditd is still running on
the existing audit_pid other than attempting to send a message to see
if it fails.  An -ECONNREFUSED almost certainly means it disappeared
and can be replaced.  Other errors are not so straightforward and may
indicate transient problems that will resolve themselves and the old
auditd will recover.  Yet others will likely need manual intervention
for which a new auditd will not solve the problem.

Send a new message type (AUDIT_REPLACE) to the old auditd containing a
u32 with the PID of the new auditd.  If the audit replace message
succeeds (or doesn't fail with certainty), fail to register the new
auditd and return an error (-EEXIST).

This is expected to make the patch preventing an old auditd orphaning a
new auditd redundant.

V3: Switch audit message type from 1000 to 1300 block.

  Beyond the new functionality we also have some refcnt fixes and a few

This adds the ability audit the actions of a not-yet-running process.

This patch implements the ability to filter on the executable path.  Instead of
just hard coding the ino and dev of the executable we care about at the moment
the rule is inserted into the kernel, use the new audit_fsnotify
infrastructure to manage this dynamically.  This means that if the filename
does not yet exist but the containing directory does, or if the inode in
question is unlinked and creat'd (aka updated) the rule will just continue to
work.  If the containing directory is moved or deleted or the filesystem is
unmounted, the rule is deleted automatically.  A future enhancement would be to
have the rule survive across directory disruptions.

This is a heavily modified version of a patch originally submitted by Eric
Paris with some ideas from Peter Moody.

Since both ppc and ppc64 have LE variants which are now reported by uname, add
that flag (__AUDIT_ARCH_LE) to syscall_get_arch() and add AUDIT_ARCH_PPC64LE

Without this,  perf trace and auditctl fail.

Since 32-bit PPC LE is not supported by audit, don't advertise it in
