libceph: wrap auth methods in a mutex

2013-06-20T19:01:32Z

commit e9966076cdd952e19f2dd4854cd719be0d7cbebc upstream. The auth code is called from a variety of contexts, include the mon_client (protected by the monc's mutex) and the messenger callbacks (currently protected by nothing). Avoid chaos by protecting all auth state with a mutex. Nothing is blocking, so this should be simple and lightweight.

libceph: wrap auth ops in wrapper functions

2013-06-20T19:01:32Z

commit 27859f9773e4a0b2042435b13400ee2c891a61f4 upstream. Use wrapper functions that check whether the auth op exists so that callers do not need a bunch of conditional checks. Simplifies the external interface. Signed-off-by: Sage Weil Reviewed-by: Alex Elder Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

libceph: add update_authorizer auth method

2013-06-20T19:01:32Z

commit 0bed9b5c523d577378b6f83eab5835fe30c27208 upstream. Currently the messenger calls out to a get_authorizer con op, which will create a new authorizer if it doesn't yet have one. In the meantime, when we rotate our service keys, the authorizer doesn't get updated. Eventually it will be rejected by the server on a new connection attempt and get invalidated, and we will then rebuild a new authorizer, but this is not ideal. Instead, if we do have an authorizer, call a new update_authorizer op that will verify that the current authorizer is using the latest secret. If it is not, we will build a new one that does. This avoids the transient failure.

mm: migration: add migrate_entry_wait_huge()

2013-06-20T19:01:31Z

commit 30dad30922ccc733cfdbfe232090cf674dc374dc upstream. When we have a page fault for the address which is backed by a hugepage under migration, the kernel can't wait correctly and do busy looping on hugepage fault until the migration finishes. As a result, users who try to kick hugepage migration (via soft offlining, for example) occasionally experience long delay or soft lockup. This is because pte_offset_map_lock() can't get a correct migration entry or a correct page table lock for hugepage. This patch introduces migration_entry_wait_huge() to solve this.

kmsg: honor dmesg_restrict sysctl on /dev/kmsg

2013-06-20T19:01:29Z

commit 637241a900cbd982f744d44646b48a273d609b34 upstream. The dmesg_restrict sysctl currently covers the syslog method for access dmesg, however /dev/kmsg isn't covered by the same protections. Most people haven't noticed because util-linux dmesg(1) defaults to using the syslog method for access in older versions. With util-linux dmesg(1) defaults to reading directly from /dev/kmsg. To fix /dev/kmsg, let's compare the existing interfaces and what they allow: - /proc/kmsg allows: - open (SYSLOG_ACTION_OPEN) if CAP_SYSLOG since it uses a destructive single-reader interface (SYSLOG_ACTION_READ). - everything, after an open. - syslog syscall allows: - anything, if CAP_SYSLOG. - SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALL and SYSLOG_ACTION_SIZE_BUFFER, if dmesg_restrict==0. - nothing else (EPERM). The use-cases were: - dmesg(1) needs to do non-destructive SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALLs. - sysklog(1) needs to open /proc/kmsg, drop privs, and still issue the destructive SYSLOG_ACTION_READs. AIUI, dmesg(1) is moving to /dev/kmsg, and systemd-journald doesn't clear the ring buffer. Based on the comments in devkmsg_llseek, it sounds like actions besides reading aren't going to be supported by /dev/kmsg (i.e. SYSLOG_ACTION_CLEAR), so we have a strict subset of the non-destructive syslog syscall actions. To this end, move the check as Josh had done, but also rename the constants to reflect their new uses (SYSLOG_FROM_CALL becomes SYSLOG_FROM_READER, and SYSLOG_FROM_FILE becomes SYSLOG_FROM_PROC). SYSLOG_FROM_READER allows non-destructive actions, and SYSLOG_FROM_PROC allows destructive actions after a capabilities-constrained SYSLOG_ACTION_OPEN check. - /dev/kmsg allows: - open if CAP_SYSLOG or dmesg_restrict==0 - reading/polling, after open Addresses https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=903192 [akpm@linux-foundation.org: use pr_warn_once()] Signed-off-by: Kees Cook Reported-by: Christian Kujau Tested-by: Josh Boyer Cc: Kay Sievers Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

CPU hotplug: provide a generic helper to disable/enable CPU hotplug

2013-06-20T19:01:29Z

commit 16e53dbf10a2d7e228709a7286310e629ede5e45 upstream. There are instances in the kernel where we would like to disable CPU hotplug (from sysfs) during some important operation. Today the freezer code depends on this and the code to do it was kinda tailor-made for that. Restructure the code and make it generic enough to be useful for other usecases too.

Bluetooth: Fix mgmt handling of power on failures

2013-06-20T19:01:28Z

commit 96570ffcca0b872dc8626e97569d2697f374d868 upstream. If hci_dev_open fails we need to ensure that the corresponding mgmt_set_powered command gets an appropriate response. This patch fixes the missing response by adding a new mgmt_set_powered_failed function that's used to indicate a power on failure to mgmt. Since a situation with the device being rfkilled may require special handling in user space the patch uses a new dedicated mgmt status code for this.

xen-netfront: reduce gso_max_size to account for max TCP header

2013-06-07T19:53:36Z

commit 9ecd1a75d977e2e8c48139c7d3efed183f898d94 upstream. The maximum packet including header that can be handled by netfront / netback wire format is 65535. Reduce gso_max_size accordingly. Drop skb and print warning when skb->len > 65535. This can 1) save the effort to send malformed packet to netback, 2) help spotting misconfiguration of netfront in the future.
