2007-10-08Correct Makefile rule for generating custom keymapMaarten Bressers
When building a custom keymap, after setting GENERATE_KEYMAP := 1 in drivers/char/Makefile, the kernel build fails like this: CC drivers/char/vt.o make[2]: *** No rule to make target `drivers/char/%.map', needed by `drivers/char/defkeymap.c'. Stop. make[1]: *** [drivers/char] Error 2 make: *** [drivers] Error 2 This was caused by commit af8b128719f5248e542036ea994610a29d0642a6, which deleted a necessary colon from the Makefile rule that generates the keymap, since that rule contains both a target and a target-pattern. The following patch puts the colon back: Signed-off-by: Maarten Bressers <mbres@gentoo.org> Cc: Yoichi Yuasa <yoichi_yuasa@tripeaks.co.jp> Cc: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Cc: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2007-07-29[WATCHDOG] Fix pcwd_init_module crashWim Van Sebroeck
Fix for the problem detected by Ingo Molnar: enabling CONFIG_PCWATCHDOG=y crashes bzImage bootup. The reason for this can be found in drivers/makefile We first do: obj-y += char/ and later we do: obj-y += base/ block/ misc/ mfd/ net/ media/ So if we put a platform or isa or usb bus driver in char/watchdog (which is called from the Makefile in drivers/char/Makefile) then we didn't have the different device drivers initialized yet (they are in drivers/base and drivers/usb and ...) This fix makes sure that we compile the watchdog drivers after drivers/base, drivers/misc, drivers/pci and drivers/usb. We also do the compile after hwmon because in the future the watchdog temperature support will use the hwmon system. Signed-off-by: Wim Van Sebroeck <wim@iguana.be>

2007-07-16Audit: add TTY input auditingMiloslav Trmac
Add TTY input auditing, used to audit system administrator's actions. This is required by various security standards such as DCID 6/3 and PCI to provide non-repudiation of administrator's actions and to allow a review of past actions if the administrator seems to overstep their duties or if the system becomes misconfigured for unknown reasons. These requirements do not make it necessary to audit TTY output as well. Compared to an user-space keylogger, this approach records TTY input using the audit subsystem, correlated with other audit events, and it is completely transparent to the user-space application (e.g. the console ioctls still work). TTY input auditing works on a higher level than auditing all system calls within the session, which would produce an overwhelming amount of mostly useless audit events. Add an "audit_tty" attribute, inherited across fork (). Data read from TTYs by process with the attribute is sent to the audit subsystem by the kernel. The audit netlink interface is extended to allow modifying the audit_tty attribute, and to allow sending explanatory audit events from user-space (for example, a shell might send an event containing the final command, after the interactive command-line editing and history expansion is performed, which might be difficult to decipher from the TTY input alone). Because the "audit_tty" attribute is inherited across fork (), it would be set e.g. for sshd restarted within an audited session. To prevent this, the audit_tty attribute is cleared when a process with no open TTY file descriptors (e.g. after daemon startup) opens a TTY. See https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-audit/2007-June/msg00000.html for a more detailed rationale document for an older version of this patch.

2006-06-26[PATCH] Remove old HW RNG supportMichael Buesch
This patch series replaces the old non-generic Hardware Random Number Generator support by a fully generic RNG API. This makes it possible to register additional RNGs from modules. With this patch series applied, Laptops with a bcm43xx chip (PowerBook) have a HW RNG available now. Additionally two new RNG drivers are added for the "ixp4xx" and "omap" devices. (Written by Deepak Saxena). This patch series includes the old patches by Deepak Saxena. The old x86-rng driver has beed split. The userspace RNG daemon can later be updated to select the RNG through /sys/class/misc/hw_random/ for convenience. For now it is sufficient to use cat and echo -n on the sysfs attributes.

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!
