2006-05-04[PATCH] splice: LRU fixupsJens Axboe
Nick says that the current construct isn't safe. This goes back to the original, but sets PIPE_BUF_FLAG_LRU on user pages as well as they all seem to be on the LRU in the first place. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

A number of small issues are fixed, and added the header file, missed from the original series. With this, driver should be pretty stable as tested among both platform-device-driven and "old way" boards. Also added missing GPL statement , and updated year field on existing ones to reflect code update.

2006-05-02[PATCH] splice: fix page LRU accountingJens Axboe
Currently we rely on the PIPE_BUF_FLAG_LRU flag being set correctly to know whether we need to fiddle with page LRU state after stealing it, however for some origins we just don't know if the page is on the LRU list or not. So remove PIPE_BUF_FLAG_LRU and do this check/add manually in pipe_to_file() instead. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

2006-05-01[NETFILTER] x_tables: fix compat related crash on non-x86Patrick McHardy
When iptables userspace adds an ipt_standard_target, it calculates the size of the entire entry as: sizeof(struct ipt_entry) + XT_ALIGN(sizeof(struct ipt_standard_target)) ipt_standard_target looks like this: struct xt_standard_target { struct xt_entry_target target; int verdict; }; xt_entry_target contains a pointer, so when compiled for 64 bit the structure gets an extra 4 byte of padding at the end. On 32 bit architectures where iptables aligns to 8 byte it will also have 4 byte padding at the end because it is only 36 bytes large. The compat_ipt_standard_fn in the kernel adjusts the offsets by sizeof(struct ipt_standard_target) - sizeof(struct compat_ipt_standard_target), which will always result in 4, even if the structure from userspace was already padded to a multiple of 8. On x86 this works out by accident because userspace only aligns to 4, on all other architectures this is broken and causes incorrect adjustments to the size and following offsets. Thanks to Linus for lots of debugging help and testing. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2006-05-01[PATCH] vmsplice: allow user to pass in gift pagesJens Axboe
If SPLICE_F_GIFT is set, the user is basically giving this pages away to the kernel. That means we can steal them for eg page cache uses instead of copying it. The data must be properly page aligned and also a multiple of the page size in length. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
2006-05-01[PATCH] pipe: enable atomic copying of pipe data to/from user spaceJens Axboe
The pipe ->map() method uses kmap() to virtually map the pages, which is both slow and has known scalability issues on SMP. This patch enables atomic copying of pipe pages, by pre-faulting data and using kmap_atomic() instead. lmbench bw_pipe and lat_pipe measurements agree this is a Good Thing. Here are results from that on a UP machine with highmem (1.5GiB of RAM), running first a UP kernel, SMP kernel, and SMP kernel patched. Vanilla-UP: Pipe bandwidth: 1622.28 MB/sec Pipe bandwidth: 1610.59 MB/sec Pipe bandwidth: 1608.30 MB/sec Pipe latency: 7.3275 microseconds Pipe latency: 7.2995 microseconds Pipe latency: 7.3097 microseconds Vanilla-SMP: Pipe bandwidth: 1382.19 MB/sec Pipe bandwidth: 1317.27 MB/sec Pipe bandwidth: 1355.61 MB/sec Pipe latency: 9.6402 microseconds Pipe latency: 9.6696 microseconds Pipe latency: 9.6153 microseconds Patched-SMP: Pipe bandwidth: 1578.70 MB/sec Pipe bandwidth: 1579.95 MB/sec Pipe bandwidth: 1578.63 MB/sec Pipe latency: 9.1654 microseconds Pipe latency: 9.2266 microseconds Pipe latency: 9.1527 microseconds Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
2006-05-01[PATCH] pipe: introduce ->pin() buffer operationJens Axboe
The ->map() function is really expensive on highmem machines right now, since it has to use the slower kmap() instead of kmap_atomic(). Splice rarely needs to access the virtual address of a page, so it's a waste of time doing it. Introduce ->pin() to take over the responsibility of making sure the page data is valid. ->map() is then reduced to just kmap(). That way we can also share a most of the pipe buffer ops between pipe.c and splice.c Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>
2006-05-01[PATCH] splice: fix bugs in pipe_to_file()Jens Axboe
Found by Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru>, fixed by me. - Only allow full pages to go to the page cache. - Check page != buf->page instead of using PIPE_BUF_FLAG_STOLEN. - Remember to clear 'stolen' if add_to_page_cache() fails. And as a cleanup on that: - Make the bottom fall-through logic a little less convoluted. Also make the steal path hold an extra reference to the page, so we don't have to differentiate between stolen and non-stolen at the end. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

2006-05-01[PATCH] Rework of IPC auditingSteve Grubb
1) The audit_ipc_perms() function has been split into two different functions: - audit_ipc_obj() - audit_ipc_set_perm() There's a key shift here... The audit_ipc_obj() collects the uid, gid, mode, and SElinux context label of the current ipc object. This audit_ipc_obj() hook is now found in several places. Most notably, it is hooked in ipcperms(), which is called in various places around the ipc code permforming a MAC check. Additionally there are several places where *checkid() is used to validate that an operation is being performed on a valid object while not necessarily having a nearby ipcperms() call. In these locations, audit_ipc_obj() is called to ensure that the information is captured by the audit system. The audit_set_new_perm() function is called any time the permissions on the ipc object changes. In this case, the NEW permissions are recorded (and note that an audit_ipc_obj() call exists just a few lines before each instance). 2) Support for an AUDIT_IPC_SET_PERM audit message type. This allows for separate auxiliary audit records for normal operations on an IPC object and permissions changes. Note that the same struct audit_aux_data_ipcctl is used and populated, however there are separate audit_log_format statements based on the type of the message. Finally, the AUDIT_IPC block of code in audit_free_aux() was extended to handle aux messages of this new type. No more mem leaks I hope ;-) Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2006-05-01[PATCH] support for context based audit filteringDarrel Goeddel
The following patch provides selinux interfaces that will allow the audit system to perform filtering based on the process context (user, role, type, sensitivity, and clearance). These interfaces will allow the selinux module to perform efficient matches based on lower level selinux constructs, rather than relying on context retrievals and string comparisons within the audit module. It also allows for dominance checks on the mls portion of the contexts that are impossible with only string comparisons.
