2008-04-29cgroups: add an owner to the mm_structBalbir Singh
Remove the mem_cgroup member from mm_struct and instead adds an owner. This approach was suggested by Paul Menage. The advantage of this approach is that, once the mm->owner is known, using the subsystem id, the cgroup can be determined. It also allows several control groups that are virtually grouped by mm_struct, to exist independent of the memory controller i.e., without adding mem_cgroup's for each controller, to mm_struct. A new config option CONFIG_MM_OWNER is added and the memory resource controller selects this config option. This patch also adds cgroup callbacks to notify subsystems when mm->owner changes. The mm_cgroup_changed callback is called with the task_lock() of the new task held and is called just prior to changing the mm->owner. I am indebted to Paul Menage for the several reviews of this patchset and helping me make it lighter and simpler. This patch was tested on a powerpc box, it was compiled with both the MM_OWNER config turned on and off. After the thread group leader exits, it's moved to init_css_state by cgroup_exit(), thus all future charges from runnings threads would be redirected to the init_css_set's subsystem.

2008-04-29cgroups: implement device whitelistSerge E. Hallyn
Implement a cgroup to track and enforce open and mknod restrictions on device files. A device cgroup associates a device access whitelist with each cgroup. A whitelist entry has 4 fields. 'type' is a (all), c (char), or b (block). 'all' means it applies to all types and all major and minor numbers. Major and minor are either an integer or * for all. Access is a composition of r (read), w (write), and m (mknod). The root device cgroup starts with rwm to 'all'. A child devcg gets a copy of the parent. Admins can then remove devices from the whitelist or add new entries. A child cgroup can never receive a device access which is denied its parent. However when a device access is removed from a parent it will not also be removed from the child(ren). An entry is added using devices.allow, and removed using devices.deny. For instance echo 'c 1:3 mr' > /cgroups/1/devices.allow allows cgroup 1 to read and mknod the device usually known as /dev/null. Doing echo a > /cgroups/1/devices.deny will remove the default 'a *:* mrw' entry. CAP_SYS_ADMIN is needed to change permissions or move another task to a new cgroup. A cgroup may not be granted more permissions than the cgroup's parent has. Any task can move itself between cgroups. This won't be sufficient, but we can decide the best way to adequately restrict movement later.

Make eCryptfs key module subsystem respect namespaces. Since I will be removing the netlink interface in a future patch, I just made changes to the netlink.c code so that it will not break the build. With my recent patches, the kernel module currently defaults to the device handle interface rather than the netlink interface.

2008-04-29eCryptfs: introduce device handle for userspace daemon communicationsMichael Halcrow
A regular device file was my real preference from the get-go, but I went with netlink at the time because I thought it would be less complex for managing send queues (i.e., just do a unicast and move on). It turns out that we do not really get that much complexity reduction with netlink, and netlink is more heavyweight than a device handle. In addition, the netlink interface to eCryptfs has been broken since 2.6.24. I am assuming this is a bug in how eCryptfs uses netlink, since the other in-kernel users of netlink do not seem to be having any problems. I have had one report of a user successfully using eCryptfs with netlink on 2.6.24, but for my own systems, when starting the userspace daemon, the initial helo message sent to the eCryptfs kernel module results in an oops right off the bat. I spent some time looking at it, but I have not yet found the cause. The netlink interface breaking gave me the motivation to just finish my patch to migrate to a regular device handle. If I cannot find out soon why the netlink interface in eCryptfs broke, I am likely to just send a patch to disable it in 2.6.24 and 2.6.25. I would like the device handle to be the preferred means of communicating with the userspace daemon from 2.6.26 on forward. This patch: Functions to facilitate reading and writing to the eCryptfs miscellaneous device handle. This will replace the netlink interface as the preferred mechanism for communicating with the userspace eCryptfs daemon. Each user has his own daemon, which registers itself by opening the eCryptfs device handle. Only one daemon per euid may be registered at any given time. The eCryptfs module sends a message to a daemon by adding its message to the daemon's outgoing message queue. The daemon reads the device handle to get the oldest message off the queue. Incoming messages from the userspace daemon are immediately handled. If the message is a response, then the corresponding process that is blocked waiting for the response is awakened.

2008-04-29binfmt_misc.c: avoid potential kernel stack overflowPavel Emelyanov
This can be triggered with root help only, but... Register the ":text:E::txt::/root/cat.txt:' rule in binfmt_misc (by root) and try launching the cat.txt file (by anyone) :) The result is - the endless recursion in the load_misc_binary -> open_exec -> load_misc_binary chain and stack overflow. There's a similar problem with binfmt_script, and there's a sh_bang memner on linux_binprm structure to handle this, but simply raising this in binfmt_misc may break some setups when the interpreter of some misc binaries is a script. So the proposal is to turn sh_bang into a bit, add a new one (the misc_bang) and raise it in load_misc_binary. After this, even if we set up the misc -> script -> misc loop for binfmts one of them will step on its own bang and exit.

2008-04-29exec: remove argv_len from struct linux_binprmTetsuo Handa
I noticed that 2.6.24.2 calculates bprm->argv_len at do_execve(). But it doesn't update bprm->argv_len after "remove_arg_zero() + copy_strings_kernel()" at load_script() etc. audit_bprm() is called from search_binary_handler() and search_binary_handler() is called from load_script() etc. Thus, I think the condition check if (bprm->argv_len > (audit_argv_kb << 10)) return -E2BIG; in audit_bprm() might return wrong result when strlen(removed_arg) != strlen(spliced_args). Why not update bprm->argv_len at load_script() etc. ? By the way, 2.6.25-rc3 seems to not doing the condition check. Is the field bprm->argv_len no longer needed?

2008-04-29epoll: avoid kmemcheck warningDavide Libenzi
Epoll calls rb_set_parent(n, n) to initialize the rb-tree node, but rb_set_parent() accesses node's pointer in its code. This creates a warning in kmemcheck (reported by Vegard Nossum) about an uninitialized memory access. The warning is harmless since the following rb-tree node insert is going to overwrite the node data. In any case I think it's better to not have that happening at all, and fix it by simplifying the code to get rid of a few lines that became superfluous after the previous epoll changes.

2008-04-28fat: detect media without partition table correctlyFrank Seidel
I received a complaint that some FAT formated medias (e.g. sd memory cards) trigger a "unknown partition table" message even though there is no partition table and they work correctly, while in general (when e.g. formated with mkdosfs or even Windows Vista) this message is not shown. Currently this seems only to happen when the medias get formatted with Windows XP (and possibly Win 2000). Then the boot indicator byte contains garbage (part of text message) and so do the other parts checked by msdos_paritition which then later triggers this message. References: novell bug #364365 Most fat formatted media without partition table contains zeros in the boot indication and the other tested bytes and so falls through the checks in msdos_partition, leading it to return with 1 (all is fine). But some (e.g. WinXP formatted) fat fomated medias don't use boot_ind and so the check fails and causes a "unkown partition table" warning eventhough there is none and everything would be fine. This additional check directly verifies if there is a fat formatted medium without a partition table.

The on-disk media specification field in FAT is only 8-bits, so testing for <=0xff is pointless, and can generate a "comparison is always true due to limited range of data type" warning. While we're there, convert FAT_VALID_MEDIA() into a C function - the present implementation is buggy: it generates either one or two references to its argument.

2008-04-28vfat: bug fix for vfat cannot handle filename with 255Keith Mok
This patch fix the problem that the buffer allocated for convert of unicode to utf8 in fat/dir.c is too small. And cannot handle filename with 255 asian characters when mounted with utf8 options. Also it fix the filename length limitation checking in vfat/namei.c that the filename length should be checked against the number of converted unicode characters. Not the length before NLS/UTF8 converted.

2008-04-28Add balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited() to cont_expand_zero()OGAWA Hirofumi
On the systems, ftruncate() which expand size for FAT became the cause of OOM. The cont_expand_zero() filled all memory with dirty pages, and since disk is very slow, limit of page scanning was exceeded, then it triggered OOM. This adds balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited() to avoid filling memory with dirty pages.

2008-04-28fat: Update free_clusters even if it is untrustedOGAWA Hirofumi
Currently, free_clusters is not updated until it is trusted, because Windows doesn't update it correctly. But if user is using FAT driver of Linux, it updates free_clusters correctly. Instead, this updates it even if it's untrusted, so if free_clustes is correct, now keep correct value.
