Pull vfs pile #2 from Al Viro: "Next pile (and there'll be one or two more).

exit: pidns: fix/update the comments in zap_pid_ns_processes()

2014-12-11T01:41:18Z

The comments in zap_pid_ns_processes() are not clear, we need to explain how this code actually works. 1. "Ignore SIGCHLD" looks like optimization but it is not, we also need this for correctness. 2. The comment above sys_wait4() could tell more. EXIT_ZOMBIE child is only possible if it has exited before we ignored SIGCHLD. Or if it is traced from the parent namespace, but in this case it will be reaped by debugger after detach, sys_wait4() acts as a synchronization point. 3. The comment about TASK_DEAD (EXIT_DEAD in fact) children is outdated. Contrary to what it says we do not need to make sure they all go away after 0a01f2cc390e "pidns: Make the pidns proc mount/umount logic obvious". At the same time, we do need to wait for nr_hashed==init_pids, but the reasons are quite different and not obvious: setns(). Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov Cc: "Eric W.

new helpers: ns_alloc_inum/ns_free_inum

2014-12-04T19:34:36Z

take struct ns_common *, for now simply wrappers around proc_{alloc,free}_inum() Signed-off-by: Al Viro

make proc_ns_operations work with struct ns_common * instead of void *

2014-12-04T19:34:17Z

We can do that now. And kill ->inum(), while we are at it - all instances are identical. Signed-off-by: Al Viro

common object embedded into various struct ....ns

2014-12-04T19:31:00Z

for now - just move corresponding ->proc_inum instances over there Acked-by: "Eric W. Biederman" Signed-off-by: Al Viro

pid_namespace: pidns_get() should check task_active_pid_ns() != NULL

2014-04-02T23:20:21Z

pidns_get()->get_pid_ns() can hit ns == NULL. This task_struct can't go away, but task_active_pid_ns(task) is NULL if release_task(task) was already called. Alternatively we could change get_pid_ns(ns) to check ns != NULL, but it seems that other callers are fine. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov Cc: Eric W.

Pull namespace changes from Eric Biederman: "This is an assorted mishmash of small cleanups, enhancements and bug fixes. The major theme is user namespace mount restrictions. nsown_capable is killed as it encourages not thinking about details that need to be considered. A very hard to hit pid namespace exiting bug was finally tracked and fixed. A couple of cleanups to the basic namespace infrastructure. Finally there is an enhancement that makes per user namespace capabilities usable as capabilities, and an enhancement that allows the per userns root to nice other processes in the user namespace" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: userns: Kill nsown_capable it makes the wrong thing easy capabilities: allow nice if we are privileged pidns: Don't have unshare(CLONE_NEWPID) imply CLONE_THREAD userns: Allow PR_CAPBSET_DROP in a user namespace. namespaces: Simplify copy_namespaces so it is clear what is going on. pidns: Fix hang in zap_pid_ns_processes by sending a potentially extra wakeup sysfs: Restrict mounting sysfs userns: Better restrictions on when proc and sysfs can be mounted vfs: Don't copy mount bind mounts of /proc//ns/mnt between namespaces kernel/nsproxy.c: Improving a snippet of code. proc: Restrict mounting the proc filesystem vfs: Lock in place mounts from more privileged users
