[IP]: Simplify and consolidate MSG_PEEK error handling
When a packet is obtained from skb_recv_datagram with MSG_PEEK enabled
it is left on the socket receive queue. This means that when we detect
a checksum error we have to be careful when trying to free the packet
as someone could have dequeued it in the time being.
Currently this delicate logic is duplicated three times between UDPv4,

[LSM-IPSec]: Per-packet access control.
This patch series implements per packet access control via the
extension of the Linux Security Modules (LSM) interface by hooks in
the XFRM and pfkey subsystems that leverage IPSec security
associations to label packets. Extensions to the SELinux LSM are
included that leverage the patch for this purpose.
This patch implements the changes necessary to the SELinux LSM to
create, deallocate, and use security contexts for policies
(xfrm_policy) and security associations (xfrm_state) that enable
control of a socket's ability to send and receive packets.
Patch purpose:
The patch is designed to enable the SELinux LSM to implement access
control on individual packets based on the strongly authenticated
IPSec security association. Such access controls augment the existing
ones in SELinux based on network interface and IP address. The former
are very coarse-grained, and the latter can be spoofed. By using
IPSec, the SELinux can control access to remote hosts based on
cryptographic keys generated using the IPSec mechanism. This enables
access control on a per-machine basis or per-application if the remote
machine is running the same mechanism and trusted to enforce the
access control policy.
Patch design approach:
The patch's main function is to authorize a socket's access to a IPSec
policy based on their security contexts. Since the communication is
implemented by a security association, the patch ensures that the
security association's negotiated and used have the same security
context. The patch enables allocation and deallocation of such
security contexts for policies and security associations. It also
enables copying of the security context when policies are cloned.
Lastly, the patch ensures that packets that are sent without using a
IPSec security assocation with a security context are allowed to be
sent in that manner.
A presentation available at
www.selinux-symposium.org/2005/presentations/session2/2-3-jaeger.pdf
from the SELinux symposium describes the overall approach.
Patch implementation details:
The function which authorizes a socket to perform a requested
operation (send/receive) on a IPSec policy (xfrm_policy) is
selinux_xfrm_policy_lookup. The Netfilter and rcv_skb hooks ensure
that if a IPSec SA with a securit y association has not been used,
then the socket is allowed to send or receive the packet,
respectively.
The patch implements SELinux function for allocating security contexts
when policies (xfrm_policy) are created via the pfkey or xfrm_user
interfaces via selinux_xfrm_policy_alloc. When a security association
is built, SELinux allocates the security context designated by the
XFRM subsystem which is based on that of the authorized policy via
selinux_xfrm_state_alloc.
When a xfrm_policy is cloned, the security context of that policy, if
any, is copied to the clone via selinux_xfrm_policy_clone.
When a xfrm_policy or xfrm_state is freed, its security context, if
any is also freed at selinux_xfrm_policy_free or
selinux_xfrm_state_free.
Testing:
The SELinux authorization function is tested using ipsec-tools. We
created policies and security associations with particular security
contexts and added SELinux access control policy entries to verify the
authorization decision. We also made sure that packets for which no
security context was supplied (which either did or did not use
security associations) were authorized using an unlabelled context.

[LSM-IPSec]: Security association restriction.
This patch series implements per packet access control via the
extension of the Linux Security Modules (LSM) interface by hooks in
the XFRM and pfkey subsystems that leverage IPSec security
associations to label packets. Extensions to the SELinux LSM are
included that leverage the patch for this purpose.
This patch implements the changes necessary to the XFRM subsystem,
pfkey interface, ipv4/ipv6, and xfrm_user interface to restrict a
socket to use only authorized security associations (or no security
association) to send/receive network packets.
Patch purpose:
The patch is designed to enable access control per packets based on
the strongly authenticated IPSec security association. Such access
controls augment the existing ones based on network interface and IP
address. The former are very coarse-grained, and the latter can be
spoofed. By using IPSec, the system can control access to remote
hosts based on cryptographic keys generated using the IPSec mechanism.
This enables access control on a per-machine basis or per-application
if the remote machine is running the same mechanism and trusted to
enforce the access control policy.
Patch design approach:
The overall approach is that policy (xfrm_policy) entries set by
user-level programs (e.g., setkey for ipsec-tools) are extended with a
security context that is used at policy selection time in the XFRM
subsystem to restrict the sockets that can send/receive packets via
security associations (xfrm_states) that are built from those
policies.
A presentation available at
www.selinux-symposium.org/2005/presentations/session2/2-3-jaeger.pdf
from the SELinux symposium describes the overall approach.
Patch implementation details:
On output, the policy retrieved (via xfrm_policy_lookup or
xfrm_sk_policy_lookup) must be authorized for the security context of
the socket and the same security context is required for resultant
security association (retrieved or negotiated via racoon in
ipsec-tools). This is enforced in xfrm_state_find.
On input, the policy retrieved must also be authorized for the socket
(at __xfrm_policy_check), and the security context of the policy must
also match the security association being used.
The patch has virtually no impact on packets that do not use IPSec.
The existing Netfilter (outgoing) and LSM rcv_skb hooks are used as
before.
Also, if IPSec is used without security contexts, the impact is
minimal. The LSM must allow such policies to be selected for the
combination of socket and remote machine, but subsequent IPSec
processing proceeds as in the original case.
Testing:
The pfkey interface is tested using the ipsec-tools. ipsec-tools have
been modified (a separate ipsec-tools patch is available for version
0.5) that supports assignment of xfrm_policy entries and security
associations with security contexts via setkey and the negotiation
using the security contexts via racoon.
The xfrm_user interface is tested via ad hoc programs that set
security contexts. These programs are also available from me, and
contain programs for setting, getting, and deleting policy for testing
this interface. Testing of sa functions was done by tracing kernel
behavior.

happens if the temperature of a CPU suddenly rises too high in a very

already overtemp by the time the driver loads).

issue lies in the strategy being run twice if the strategy is set to

Such strategy routines as sysctl_jiffies and sysctl_jiffies_ms return 1

The strategy routine sysctl_string return 0 although it actually read

[PATCH] uml: fix random segfaults at bootup
Don't use printk() where "current_thread_info()" is crap.
Until when we switch to running on init_stack, current_thread_info() evaluates
to crap. Printk uses "current" at times (in detail, ¤t is evaluated with
CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK to check the spinlock owner task).
And this leads to random segmentation faults.
Exactly, what happens is that ¤t = *(current_thread_info()), i.e. round
down $esp and dereference the value. I.e. access the stack below $esp, which
causes SIGSEGV on a VM_GROWSDOWN vma (see arch/i386/mm/fault.c).

[PATCH] Fix more radeon GART start calculation cases
As reported by Jules Villard <jvillard@ens-lyon.fr> and some others, the
recent GART aperture start reconfiguration causes problems on some
setups.
What I _think_ might be happening is that the X server is also trying to
muck around with the card memory map and is forcing it back into a wrong
setting that also happens to no longer match what the DRM wants to do
and blows up. There are bugs all over the place in that code (and still
some bugs in the DRM as well anyway).
This patch attempts to avoid that by using the largest of the 2 values,
which I think will cause it to behave as it used to for you and will
still fix the problem with machines that have an aperture size smaller
than the video memory.

2) Add locking to source filter list [resend of prior patch]
3) fix "mld_marksources()" to
a) send nothing when all queried sources are excluded
b) send full exclude report when source queried sources are
not excluded
c) don't schedule a timer when there's nothing to report
NOTE: RFC 3810 specifies the source list should be saved and each
source reported individually as an IS_IN. This is an obvious DOS
path, requiring the host to store and then multicast as many sources
as are queried (e.g., millions...). This alternative sends a full,
relevant report that's limited to number of sources present on the
machine.
4) fix "add_grec()" to send empty-source records when it should
The original check doesn't account for a non-empty source
list with all sources inactive; the new code keeps that
short-circuit case, and also generates the group header
with an empty list if needed.

bic r3, sp, #8128
bic r3, r3, #63
ldr r2, [r3, #4]
ldr r1, [r3, #0]
sub r2, r2, #1
tst r1, #4
str r2, [r3, #4]
blne preempt_schedule
mov pc, lr
The problem is that the TIF_NEED_RESCHED flag is loaded _before_ the
preemption count is stored back, hence any interrupt coming within that
3 instruction window causing TIF_NEED_RESCHED to be set won't be
seen and scheduling won't happen as it should.
Nothing currently prevents gcc from performing that reordering. There
is already a barrier() before the decrement of the preemption count, but
another one is needed between this and the TIF_NEED_RESCHED flag test
for proper code ordering.

[IPSEC]: Fix policy updates missed by sockets
The problem is that when new policies are inserted, sockets do not see
the update (but all new route lookups do).
This bug is related to the SA insertion stale route issue solved
recently, and this policy visibility problem can be fixed in a similar
way.
The fix is to flush out the bundles of all policies deeper than the
policy being inserted. Consider beginning state of "outgoing"
direction policy list:
policy A --> policy B --> policy C --> policy D
First, realize that inserting a policy into a list only potentially
changes IPSEC routes for that direction. Therefore we need not bother
considering the policies for other directions. We need only consider
the existing policies in the list we are doing the inserting.
Consider new policy "B'", inserted after B.
policy A --> policy B --> policy B' --> policy C --> policy D
Two rules:
1) If policy A or policy B matched before the insertion, they
appear before B' and thus would still match after inserting
B'
2) Policy C and D, now "shadowed" and after policy B', potentially
contain stale routes because policy B' might be selected
instead of them.
Therefore we only need flush routes assosciated with policies
appearing after a newly inserted policy, if any.

powerpc: Fix i8259 cascade on pSeries with XICS interrupt controller
It turns out that commit
f9bd170a87948a9e077149b70fb192c563770fdf
broke the cascade from XICS to i8259 on pSeries machines; specifically
we ended up not ever doing the EOI on the XICS for the cascade. The
result was that interrupts from the serial ports (and presumably any
other devices using ISA interrupts) didn't get through. This fixes
it and also simplifies the code, by doing the EOI on the XICS in the
xics_get_irq routine after reading and acking the interrupt on the
i8259.

V4L/DVB (3191): Fix CC output
- CC data was swapped the wrong way around.
