2011-11-21KEYS: Fix a NULL pointer deref in the user-defined key typeDavid Howells
commit 9f35a33b8d06263a165efe3541d9aa0cdbd70b3b upstream. Fix a NULL pointer deref in the user-defined key type whereby updating a negative key into a fully instantiated key will cause an oops to occur when the code attempts to free the non-existent old payload. This results in an oops that looks something like the following: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000008 IP: [<ffffffff81085fa1>] __call_rcu+0x11/0x13e PGD 3391d067 PUD 3894a067 PMD 0 Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP CPU 1 Pid: 4354, comm: keyctl Not tainted 3.1.0-fsdevel+ #1140 /DG965RY RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff81085fa1>] [<ffffffff81085fa1>] __call_rcu+0x11/0x13e RSP: 0018:ffff88003d591df8 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: 000000000000006e RDX: ffffffff8161d0c0 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: 0000000000000000 RBP: ffff88003d591e18 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: ffffffff8152fa6c R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000300 R12: ffff88003b8f9538 R13: ffffffff8161d0c0 R14: ffff88003b8f9d50 R15: ffff88003c69f908 FS: 00007f97eb18c720(0000) GS:ffff88003bd00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 0000000000000008 CR3: 000000003d47a000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Process keyctl (pid: 4354, threadinfo ffff88003d590000, task ffff88003c78a040) Stack: ffff88003e0ffde0 ffff88003b8f9538 0000000000000001 ffff88003b8f9d50 ffff88003d591e28 ffffffff810860f0 ffff88003d591e68 ffffffff8117bfea ffff88003d591e68 ffffffff00000000 ffff88003e0ffde1 ffff88003e0ffde0 Call Trace: [<ffffffff810860f0>] call_rcu_sched+0x10/0x12 [<ffffffff8117bfea>] user_update+0x8d/0xa2 [<ffffffff8117723a>] key_create_or_update+0x236/0x270 [<ffffffff811789b1>] sys_add_key+0x123/0x17e [<ffffffff813b84bb>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Acked-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Acked-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@redhat.com> Acked-by: Steve Dickson <steved@redhat.com> Acked-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2011-03-17KEYS: Improve /proc/keysDavid Howells
Improve /proc/keys by: (1) Don't attempt to summarise the payload of a negated key. It won't have one. To this end, a helper function - key_is_instantiated() has been added that allows the caller to find out whether the key is positively instantiated (as opposed to being uninstantiated or negatively instantiated). (2) Do show keys that are negative, expired or revoked rather than hiding them. This requires an override flag (no_state_check) to be passed to search_my_process_keyrings() and keyring_search_aux() to suppress this check. Without this, keys that are possessed by the caller, but only grant permissions to the caller if possessed are skipped as the possession check fails. Keys that are visible due to user, group or other checks are visible with or without this patch. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org>

2007-02-14[PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.hTim Schmielau
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes. There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the course of cleaning it up. To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble. Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha, arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig, allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted by unnecessarily included header files).

2006-06-26[PATCH] keys: discard the contents of a key on revocationDavid Howells
Cause the keys linked to a keyring to be unlinked from it when revoked and it causes the data attached to a user-defined key to be discarded when revoked. This frees up most of the quota a key occupied at that point, rather than waiting for the key to actually be destroyed.

Export user-defined key operations so that those who wish to define their own key type based on the user-defined key operations may do so (as has been requested). The header file created has been placed into include/keys/user-type.h, thus creating a directory where other key types may also be placed. Any objections to doing this?

2005-06-24[PATCH] keys: Discard key spinlock and use RCU for key payloadDavid Howells
The attached patch changes the key implementation in a number of ways: (1) It removes the spinlock from the key structure. (2) The key flags are now accessed using atomic bitops instead of write-locking the key spinlock and using C bitwise operators. The three instantiation flags are dealt with with the construction semaphore held during the request_key/instantiate/negate sequence, thus rendering the spinlock superfluous. The key flags are also now bit numbers not bit masks. (3) The key payload is now accessed using RCU. This permits the recursive keyring search algorithm to be simplified greatly since no locks need be taken other than the usual RCU preemption disablement. Searching now does not require any locks or semaphores to be held; merely that the starting keyring be pinned. (4) The keyring payload now includes an RCU head so that it can be disposed of by call_rcu(). This requires that the payload be copied on unlink to prevent introducing races in copy-down vs search-up. (5) The user key payload is now a structure with the data following it. It includes an RCU head like the keyring payload and for the same reason. It also contains a data length because the data length in the key may be changed on another CPU whilst an RCU protected read is in progress on the payload. This would then see the supposed RCU payload and the on-key data length getting out of sync. I'm tempted to drop the key's datalen entirely, except that it's used in conjunction with quota management and so is a little tricky to get rid of. (6) Update the keys documentation.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
