ipc,rcu: Convert call_rcu(ipc_immediate_free) to kfree_rcu()

2011-07-20T21:10:16Z

The rcu callback ipc_immediate_free() just calls a kfree(), so we use kfree_rcu() instead of the call_rcu(ipc_immediate_free). Signed-off-by: Lai Jiangshan Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney Cc: Andrew Morton Reviewed-by: Josh Triplett

userns: user namespaces: convert several capable() calls

2011-03-24T02:47:08Z

CAP_IPC_OWNER and CAP_IPC_LOCK can be checked against current_user_ns(), because the resource comes from current's own ipc namespace. setuid/setgid are to uids in own namespace, so again checks can be against current_user_ns(). Changelog: Jan 11: Use task_ns_capable() in place of sched_capable(). Jan 11: Use nsown_capable() as suggested by Bastian Blank. Jan 11: Clarify (hopefully) some logic in futex and sched.c Feb 15: use ns_capable for ipc, not nsown_capable Feb 23: let copy_ipcs handle setting ipc_ns->user_ns Feb 23: pass ns down rather than taking it from current [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] Signed-off-by: Serge E.

kernel-wide: replace USHORT_MAX, SHORT_MAX and SHORT_MIN with USHRT_MAX, SHRT_MAX and SHRT_MIN

2010-05-25T15:07:02Z

- C99 knows about USHRT_MAX/SHRT_MAX/SHRT_MIN, not USHORT_MAX/SHORT_MAX/SHORT_MIN. - Make SHRT_MIN of type s16, not int, for consistency.

seq_file: constify seq_operations

2009-09-23T14:39:29Z

Make all seq_operations structs const, to help mitigate against revectoring user-triggerable function pointers. This is derived from the grsecurity patch, although generated from scratch because it's simpler than extracting the changes from there.

namespaces: mqueue ns: move mqueue_mnt into struct ipc_namespace

2009-04-07T15:31:09Z

Move mqueue vfsmount plus a few tunables into the ipc_namespace struct. The CONFIG_IPC_NS boolean and the ipc_namespace struct will serve both the posix message queue namespaces and the SYSV ipc namespaces. The sysctl code will be fixed separately in patch 3. After just this patch, making a change to posix mqueue tunables always changes the values in the initial ipc namespace. Signed-off-by: Cedric Le Goater Signed-off-by: Serge E.

sysvipc: fix the ipc structures initialization

2008-11-20T02:49:57Z

A problem was found while reviewing the code after Bugzilla bug http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11796. In ipc_addid(), the newly allocated ipc structure is inserted into the ipcs tree (i.e made visible to readers) without locking it. This is not correct since its initialization continues after it has been inserted in the tree. This patch moves the ipc structure lock initialization + locking before the actual insertion.
