2013-10-28nl80211/cfg80211: enable DFS for IBSS modeSimon Wunderlich1-0/+9
To use DFS in IBSS mode, userspace is required to react to radar events. It can inform nl80211 that it is capable of doing so by adding a NL80211_ATTR_HANDLE_DFS attribute when joining the IBSS. This attribute is supplied to let the kernelspace know that the userspace application can and will handle radar events, e.g. by intiating channel switches to a valid channel. DFS channels may only be used if this attribute is supplied and the driver supports it. Driver support will be checked even if a channel without DFS will be initially joined, as a DFS channel may be chosen later.

2013-10-14netfilter: nfnetlink: add batch support and use it from nf_tablesPablo Neira Ayuso1-0/+4
This patch adds a batch support to nfnetlink. Basically, it adds two new control messages: * NFNL_MSG_BATCH_BEGIN, that indicates the beginning of a batch, the nfgenmsg->res_id indicates the nfnetlink subsystem ID. * NFNL_MSG_BATCH_END, that results in the invocation of the ss->commit callback function. If not specified or an error ocurred in the batch, the ss->abort function is invoked instead. The end message represents the commit operation in nftables, the lack of end message results in an abort. This patch also adds the .call_batch function that is only called from the batch receival path. This patch adds atomic rule updates and dumps based on bitmask generations. This allows to atomically commit a set of rule-set updates incrementally without altering the internal state of existing nf_tables expressions/matches/targets. The idea consists of using a generation cursor of 1 bit and a bitmask of 2 bits per rule. Assuming the gencursor is 0, then the genmask (expressed as a bitmask) can be interpreted as: 00 active in the present, will be active in the next generation. 01 inactive in the present, will be active in the next generation. 10 active in the present, will be deleted in the next generation. ^ gencursor Once you invoke the transition to the next generation, the global gencursor is updated: 00 active in the present, will be active in the next generation. 01 active in the present, needs to zero its future, it becomes 00. 10 inactive in the present, delete now. ^ gencursor If a dump is in progress and nf_tables enters a new generation, the dump will stop and return -EBUSY to let userspace know that it has to retry again. In order to invalidate dumps, a global genctr counter is increased everytime nf_tables enters a new generation. This new operation can be used from the user-space utility that controls the firewall, eg. nft -f restore The rule updates contained in `file' will be applied atomically. cat file ----- add filter INPUT ip saddr 1.1.1.1 counter accept #1 del filter INPUT ip daddr 2.2.2.2 counter drop #2 -EOF- Note that the rule 1 will be inactive until the transition to the next generation, the rule 2 will be evicted in the next generation. There is a penalty during the rule update due to the branch misprediction in the packet matching framework. But that should be quickly resolved once the iteration over the commit list that contain rules that require updates is finished. Event notification happens once the rule-set update has been committed. So we skip notifications is case the rule-set update is aborted, which can happen in case that the rule-set is tested to apply correctly. This patch squashed the following patches from Pablo: * nf_tables: atomic rule updates and dumps * nf_tables: get rid of per rule list_head for commits * nf_tables: use per netns commit list * nfnetlink: add batch support and use it from nf_tables * nf_tables: all rule updates are transactional * nf_tables: attach replacement rule after stale one * nf_tables: do not allow deletion/replacement of stale rules * nf_tables: remove unused NFTA_RULE_FLAGS Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2013-10-14netfilter: nf_tables: add insert operationEric Leblond1-0/+2
This patch adds a new rule attribute NFTA_RULE_POSITION which is used to store the position of a rule relatively to the others. By providing the create command and specifying the position, the rule is inserted after the rule with the handle equal to the provided position.

2013-10-14netfilter: nf_tables: add support for dormant tablesPablo Neira Ayuso1-0/+11
This patch allows you to temporarily disable an entire table. You can change the state of a dormant table via NFT_MSG_NEWTABLE messages. Using this operation you can wake up a table, so their chains are registered. This provides atomicity at chain level. Thus, the rule-set of one chain is applied at once, avoiding any possible intermediate state in every chain. Still, the chains that belongs to a table are registered consecutively. This also allows you to have inactive tables in the kernel. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2013-10-14netfilter: nf_tables: add compatibility layer for x_tablesPablo Neira Ayuso4-1/+73
This patch adds the x_tables compatibility layer. This allows you to use existing x_tables matches and targets from nf_tables. This compatibility later allows us to use existing matches/targets for features that are still missing in nf_tables. We can progressively replace them with native nf_tables extensions. It also provides the userspace compatibility software that allows you to express the rule-set using the iptables syntax but using the nf_tables kernel components. In order to get this compatibility layer working, I've done the following things: * add NFNL_SUBSYS_NFT_COMPAT: this new nfnetlink subsystem is used to query the x_tables match/target revision, so we don't need to use the native x_table getsockopt interface. * emulate xt structures: this required extending the struct nft_pktinfo to include the fragment offset, which is already obtained from ip[6]_tables and that is used by some matches/targets. * add support for default policy to base chains, required to emulate x_tables. * add NFTA_CHAIN_USE attribute to obtain the number of references to chains, required by x_tables emulation. * add chain packet/byte counters using per-cpu. * support 32-64 bits compat. For historical reasons, this patch includes the following patches that were posted in the netfilter-devel mailing list. From Pablo Neira Ayuso: * nf_tables: add default policy to base chains * netfilter: nf_tables: add NFTA_CHAIN_USE attribute * nf_tables: nft_compat: private data of target and matches in contiguous area * nf_tables: validate hooks for compat match/target * nf_tables: nft_compat: release cached matches/targets * nf_tables: x_tables support as a compile time option * nf_tables: fix alias for xtables over nftables module * nf_tables: add packet and byte counters per chain * nf_tables: fix per-chain counter stats if no counters are passed * nf_tables: don't bump chain stats * nf_tables: add protocol and flags for xtables over nf_tables * nf_tables: add ip[6]t_entry emulation * nf_tables: move specific layer 3 compat code to nf_tables_ipv[4|6] * nf_tables: support 32bits-64bits x_tables compat * nf_tables: fix compilation if CONFIG_COMPAT is disabled From Patrick McHardy: * nf_tables: move policy to struct nft_base_chain * nf_tables: send notifications for base chain policy changes From Alexander Primak: * nf_tables: remove the duplicate NF_INET_LOCAL_OUT From Nicolas Dichtel: * nf_tables: fix compilation when nf-netlink is a module Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2013-10-14netfilter: nf_tables: convert built-in tables/chains to chain typesPablo Neira Ayuso1-0/+2
This patch converts built-in tables/chains to chain types that allows you to deploy customized table and chain configurations from userspace. After this patch, you have to specify the chain type when creating a new chain: add chain ip filter output { type filter hook input priority 0; } ^^^^ ------ The existing chain types after this patch are: filter, route and nat. Note that tables are just containers of chains with no specific semantics, which is a significant change with regards to iptables. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2013-10-14netfilter: nf_tables: add netlink set APIPatrick McHardy1-52/+139
This patch adds the new netlink API for maintaining nf_tables sets independently of the ruleset. The API supports the following operations: - creation of sets - deletion of sets - querying of specific sets - dumping of all sets - addition of set elements - removal of set elements - dumping of all set elements Sets are identified by name, each table defines an individual namespace. The name of a set may be allocated automatically, this is mostly useful in combination with the NFT_SET_ANONYMOUS flag, which destroys a set automatically once the last reference has been released. Sets can be marked constant, meaning they're not allowed to change while linked to a rule. This allows to perform lockless operation for set types that would otherwise require locking. Additionally, if the implementation supports it, sets can (as before) be used as maps, associating a data value with each key (or range), by specifying the NFT_SET_MAP flag and can be used for interval queries by specifying the NFT_SET_INTERVAL flag. Set elements are added and removed incrementally. All element operations support batching, reducing netlink message and set lookup overhead. The old "set" and "hash" expressions are replaced by a generic "lookup" expression, which binds to the specified set. Userspace is not aware of the actual set implementation used by the kernel anymore, all configuration options are generic. Currently the implementation selection logic is largely missing and the kernel will simply use the first registered implementation supporting the requested operation. Eventually, the plan is to have userspace supply a description of the data characteristics and select the implementation based on expected performance and memory use. This patch includes the new 'lookup' expression to look up for element matching in the set. This patch includes kernel-doc descriptions for this set API and it also includes the following fixes. From Patrick McHardy: * netfilter: nf_tables: fix set element data type in dumps * netfilter: nf_tables: fix indentation of struct nft_set_elem comments * netfilter: nf_tables: fix oops in nft_validate_data_load() * netfilter: nf_tables: fix oops while listing sets of built-in tables * netfilter: nf_tables: destroy anonymous sets immediately if binding fails * netfilter: nf_tables: propagate context to set iter callback * netfilter: nf_tables: add loop detection From Pablo Neira Ayuso: * netfilter: nf_tables: allow to dump all existing sets * netfilter: nf_tables: fix wrong type for flags variable in newelem Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2013-10-14netfilter: add nftablesPatrick McHardy4-1/+591
This patch adds nftables which is the intended successor of iptables. This packet filtering framework reuses the existing netfilter hooks, the connection tracking system, the NAT subsystem, the transparent proxying engine, the logging infrastructure and the userspace packet queueing facilities. In a nutshell, nftables provides a pseudo-state machine with 4 general purpose registers of 128 bits and 1 specific purpose register to store verdicts. This pseudo-machine comes with an extensible instruction set, a.k.a. "expressions" in the nftables jargon. The expressions included in this patch provide the basic functionality, they are: * bitwise: to perform bitwise operations. * byteorder: to change from host/network endianess. * cmp: to compare data with the content of the registers. * counter: to enable counters on rules. * ct: to store conntrack keys into register. * exthdr: to match IPv6 extension headers. * immediate: to load data into registers. * limit: to limit matching based on packet rate. * log: to log packets. * meta: to match metainformation that usually comes with the skbuff. * nat: to perform Network Address Translation. * payload: to fetch data from the packet payload and store it into registers. * reject (IPv4 only): to explicitly close connection, eg. TCP RST. Using this instruction-set, the userspace utility 'nft' can transform the rules expressed in human-readable text representation (using a new syntax, inspired by tcpdump) to nftables bytecode. nftables also inherits the table, chain and rule objects from iptables, but in a more configurable way, and it also includes the original datatype-agnostic set infrastructure with mapping support. This set infrastructure is enhanced in the follow up patch (netfilter: nf_tables: add netlink set API). This patch includes the following components: * the netlink API: net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c and include/uapi/netfilter/nf_tables.h * the packet filter core: net/netfilter/nf_tables_core.c * the expressions (described above): net/netfilter/nft_*.c * the filter tables: arp, IPv4, IPv6 and bridge: net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_tables_ipv4.c net/ipv6/netfilter/nf_tables_ipv6.c net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_tables_arp.c net/bridge/netfilter/nf_tables_bridge.c * the NAT table (IPv4 only): net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_table_nat_ipv4.c * the route table (similar to mangle): net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_table_route_ipv4.c net/ipv6/netfilter/nf_table_route_ipv6.c * internal definitions under: include/net/netfilter/nf_tables.h include/net/netfilter/nf_tables_core.h * It also includes an skeleton expression: net/netfilter/nft_expr_template.c and the preliminary implementation of the meta target net/netfilter/nft_meta_target.c It also includes a change in struct nf_hook_ops to add a new pointer to store private data to the hook, that is used to store the rule list per chain. This patch is based on the patch from Patrick McHardy, plus merged accumulated cleanups, fixes and small enhancements to the nftables code that has been done since 2009, which are: From Patrick McHardy: * nf_tables: adjust netlink handler function signatures * nf_tables: only retry table lookup after successful table module load * nf_tables: fix event notification echo and avoid unnecessary messages * nft_ct: add l3proto support * nf_tables: pass expression context to nft_validate_data_load() * nf_tables: remove redundant definition * nft_ct: fix maxattr initialization * nf_tables: fix invalid event type in nf_tables_getrule() * nf_tables: simplify nft_data_init() usage * nf_tables: build in more core modules * nf_tables: fix double lookup expression unregistation * nf_tables: move expression initialization to nf_tables_core.c * nf_tables: build in payload module * nf_tables: use NFPROTO constants * nf_tables: rename pid variables to portid * nf_tables: save 48 bits per rule * nf_tables: introduce chain rename * nf_tables: check for duplicate names on chain rename * nf_tables: remove ability to specify handles for new rules * nf_tables: return error for rule change request * nf_tables: return error for NLM_F_REPLACE without rule handle * nf_tables: include NLM_F_APPEND/NLM_F_REPLACE flags in rule notification * nf_tables: fix NLM_F_MULTI usage in netlink notifications * nf_tables: include NLM_F_APPEND in rule dumps From Pablo Neira Ayuso: * nf_tables: fix stack overflow in nf_tables_newrule * nf_tables: nft_ct: fix compilation warning * nf_tables: nft_ct: fix crash with invalid packets * nft_log: group and qthreshold are 2^16 * nf_tables: nft_meta: fix socket uid,gid handling * nft_counter: allow to restore counters * nf_tables: fix module autoload * nf_tables: allow to remove all rules placed in one chain * nf_tables: use 64-bits rule handle instead of 16-bits * nf_tables: fix chain after rule deletion * nf_tables: improve deletion performance * nf_tables: add missing code in route chain type * nf_tables: rise maximum number of expressions from 12 to 128 * nf_tables: don't delete table if in use * nf_tables: fix basechain release From Tomasz Bursztyka: * nf_tables: Add support for changing users chain's name * nf_tables: Change chain's name to be fixed sized * nf_tables: Add support for replacing a rule by another one * nf_tables: Update uapi nftables netlink header documentation From Florian Westphal: * nft_log: group is u16, snaplen u32 From Phil Oester: * nf_tables: operational limit match Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

2013-10-06misc: mic: Enable OSPM suspend and resume support.Dasaratharaman Chandramouli1-0/+2
This patch enables support for OSPM suspend and resume in the MIC driver. During a host suspend event, the driver performs an orderly shutdown of the cards if they are online. Upon resume, any cards that were previously online before suspend are rebooted. The driver performs an orderly shutdown of the card primarily to ensure that applications in the card are terminated and mounted devices are safely un-mounted before the card is powered down in the event of an OSPM suspend. The driver makes use of the MIC daemon to accomplish OSPM suspend and resume. The driver registers a PM notifier per MIC device. The devices get notified synchronously during PM_SUSPEND_PREPARE and PM_POST_SUSPEND phases. During the PM_SUSPEND_PREPARE phase, the driver performs one of the following three tasks. 1) If the card is 'offline', the driver sets the card to a 'suspended' state and returns. 2) If the card is 'online', the driver initiates card shutdown by setting the card state to suspending. This notifies the MIC daemon which invokes shutdown and sets card state to 'suspended'. The driver returns after the shutdown is complete. 3) If the card is already being shutdown, possibly by a host user space application, the driver sets the card state to 'suspended' and returns after the shutdown is complete. During the PM_POST_SUSPEND phase, the driver simply notifies the daemon and returns. The daemon boots those cards that were previously online during the suspend phase.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pablo/nf-next Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next tree, mostly ipset improvements and enhancements features, they are: * Don't call ip_nest_end needlessly in the error path from me, suggested by Pablo Neira Ayuso, from Jozsef Kadlecsik. * Fixed sparse warnings about shadowed variable and missing rcu annotation and fix of "may be used uninitialized" warnings, also from Jozsef. * Renamed simple macro names to avoid namespace issues, reported by David Laight, again from Jozsef. * Use fix sized type for timeout in the extension part, and cosmetic ordering of matches and targets separatedly in xt_set.c, from Jozsef. * Support package fragments for IPv4 protos without ports from Anders K. Pedersen. For example this allows a hash:ip,port ipset containing the entry 192.168.0.1,gre:0 to match all package fragments for PPTP VPN tunnels to/from the host. Without this patch only the first package fragment (with fragment offset 0) was matched. * Introduced a new operation to get both setname and family, from Jozsef. ip[6]tables set match and SET target need to know the family of the set in order to reject adding rules which refer to a set with a non-mathcing family. Currently such rules are silently accepted and then ignored instead of generating an error message to the user. * Reworked extensions support in ipset types from Jozsef. The approach of defining structures with all variations is not manageable as the number of extensions grows. Therefore a blob for the extensions is introduced, somewhat similar to conntrack. The support of extensions which need a per data destroy function is added as well. * When an element timed out in a list:set type of set, the garbage collector skipped the checking of the next element. So the purging was delayed to the next run of the gc, fixed by Jozsef. * A small Kconfig fix: NETFILTER_NETLINK cannot be selected and ipset requires it. * hash:net,net type from Oliver Smith. The type provides the ability to store pairs of subnets in a set. * Comment for ipset entries from Oliver Smith. This makes possible to annotate entries in a set with comments, for example: ipset n foo hash:net,net comment ipset a foo 10.0.0.0/21,192.168.1.0/24 comment "office nets A and B" * Fix of hash types resizing with comment extension from Jozsef. * Fix of new extensions for list:set type when an element is added into a slot from where another element was pushed away from Jozsef. * Introduction of a common function for the listing of the element extensions from Jozsef. * Net namespace support for ipset from Vitaly Lavrov. * hash:net,port,net type from Oliver Smith, which makes possible to store the triples of two subnets and a protocol, port pair in a set. * Get xt_TCPMSS working with net namespace, by Gao feng. * Use the proper net netnamespace to allocate skbs, also by Gao feng. * A couple of cleanups for the conntrack SIP helper, by Holger Eitzenberger. * Extend cttimeout to allow setting default conntrack timeouts via nfnetlink, so we can get rid of all our sysctl/proc interfaces in the future for timeout tuning, from me. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-10-04perf: Add generic transaction flagsAndi Kleen1-1/+24
Add a generic qualifier for transaction events, as a new sample type that returns a flag word. This is particularly useful for qualifying aborts: to distinguish aborts which happen due to asynchronous events (like conflicts caused by another CPU) versus instructions that lead to an abort. The tuning strategies are very different for those cases, so it's important to distinguish them easily and early. Since it's inconvenient and inflexible to filter for this in the kernel we report all the events out and allow some post processing in user space. The flags are based on the Intel TSX events, but should be fairly generic and mostly applicable to other HTM architectures too. In addition to various flag words there's also reserved space to report an program supplied abort code. For TSX this is used to distinguish specific classes of aborts, like a lock busy abort when doing lock elision. Flags: Elision and generic transactions (ELISION vs TRANSACTION) (HLE vs RTM on TSX; IBM etc. would likely only use TRANSACTION) Aborts caused by current thread vs aborts caused by others (SYNC vs ASYNC) Retryable transaction (RETRY) Conflicts with other threads (CONFLICT) Transaction write capacity overflow (CAPACITY WRITE) Transaction read capacity overflow (CAPACITY READ) Transactions implicitely aborted can also return an abort code. This can be used to signal specific events to the profiler. A common case is abort on lock busy in a RTM eliding library (code 0xff) To handle this case we include the TSX abort code Common example aborts in TSX would be: - Data conflict with another thread on memory read. Flags: TRANSACTION|ASYNC|CONFLICT - executing a WRMSR in a transaction. Flags: TRANSACTION|SYNC - HLE transaction in user space is too large Flags: ELISION|SYNC|CAPACITY-WRITE The only flag that is somewhat TSX specific is ELISION. This adds the perf core glue needed for reporting the new flag word out. v2: Add MEM/MISC v3: Move transaction to the end v4: Separate capacity-read/write and remove misc v5: Remove _SAMPLE. Move abort flags to 32bit.

2013-10-03bonding: modify the old and add new xmit hash policiesNikolay Aleksandrov1-0/+2
This patch adds two new hash policy modes which use skb_flow_dissect: 3 - Encapsulated layer 2+3 4 - Encapsulated layer 3+4 There should be a good improvement for tunnel users in those modes. It also changes the old hash functions to: hash ^= (__force u32)flow.dst ^ (__force u32)flow.src; hash ^= (hash >> 16); hash ^= (hash >> 8); Where hash will be initialized either to L2 hash, that is SRCMAC[5] XOR DSTMAC[5], or to flow->ports which should be extracted from the upper layer. Flow's dst and src are also extracted based on the xmit policy either directly from the buffer or by using skb_flow_dissect, but in both cases if the protocol is IPv6 then dst and src are obtained by ipv6_addr_hash() on the real addresses. In case of a non-dissectable packet, the algorithms fall back to L2 hashing. The bond_set_mode_ops() function is now obsolete and thus deleted because it was used only to set the proper hash policy. Also we trim a pointer from struct bonding because we no longer need to keep the hash function, now there's only a single hash function - bond_xmit_hash that works based on bond->params.xmit_policy. The hash function and skb_flow_dissect were suggested by Eric Dumazet. The layer names were suggested by Andy Gospodarek, because I suck at semantics.

2013-10-01netfilter: cttimeout: allow to set/get default protocol timeoutsPablo Neira Ayuso1-0/+2
Default timeouts are currently set via proc/sysctl interface, the typical pattern is a file name like: /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_PROTOCOL_timeout_STATE This results in one entry per default protocol state timeout. This patch simplifies this by allowing to set default protocol timeouts via cttimeout netlink interface. This should allow us to get rid of the existing proc/sysctl code in the midterm.

2013-09-30netfilter: ipset: Support comments for ipset entries in the core.Oliver Smith1-1/+7
This adds the core support for having comments on ipset entries. The comments are stored as standard null-terminated strings in dynamically allocated memory after being passed to the kernel.

2013-09-27Intel MIC Host Driver Changes for Virtio Devices.Ashutosh Dixit3-1/+240
This patch introduces the host "Virtio over PCIe" interface for Intel MIC. It allows creating user space backends on the host and instantiating virtio devices for them on the Intel MIC card. It uses the existing VRINGH infrastructure in the kernel to access virtio rings from the host. A character device per MIC is exposed with IOCTL, mmap and poll callbacks. This allows the user space backend to: (a) add/remove a virtio device via a device page. (b) map (R/O) virtio rings and device page to user space. (c) poll for availability of data. (d) copy a descriptor or entire descriptor chain to/from the card. (e) modify virtio configuration. (f) handle virtio device reset. The buffers are copied over using CPU copies for this initial patch and host initiated MIC DMA support is planned for future patches. The avail and desc virtio rings are in host memory and the used ring is in card memory to maximize writes across PCIe for performance.

2013-09-25NFC: Define secure element IO API and commandsSamuel Ortiz1-0/+4
In order to send and receive ISO7816 APDUs to and from NFC embedded secure elements, we define a specific netlink command. On a typical SE use case, host applications will send very few APDUs (Less than 10) per transaction. This is why we decided to go for a simple netlink API. Defining another NFC socket protocol for such low traffic would have been overengineered. Signed-off-by: Samuel Ortiz <sameo@linux.intel.com>
2013-09-24KEYS: Add per-user_namespace registers for persistent per-UID kerberos cachesDavid Howells1-0/+1
Add support for per-user_namespace registers of persistent per-UID kerberos caches held within the kernel. This allows the kerberos cache to be retained beyond the life of all a user's processes so that the user's cron jobs can work. The kerberos cache is envisioned as a keyring/key tree looking something like: struct user_namespace \___ .krb_cache keyring - The register \___ _krb.0 keyring - Root's Kerberos cache \___ _krb.5000 keyring - User 5000's Kerberos cache \___ _krb.5001 keyring - User 5001's Kerberos cache \___ tkt785 big_key - A ccache blob \___ tkt12345 big_key - Another ccache blob Or possibly: struct user_namespace \___ .krb_cache keyring - The register \___ _krb.0 keyring - Root's Kerberos cache \___ _krb.5000 keyring - User 5000's Kerberos cache \___ _krb.5001 keyring - User 5001's Kerberos cache \___ tkt785 keyring - A ccache \___ krbtgt/REDHAT.COM@REDHAT.COM big_key \___ http/REDHAT.COM@REDHAT.COM user \___ afs/REDHAT.COM@REDHAT.COM user \___ nfs/REDHAT.COM@REDHAT.COM user \___ krbtgt/KERNEL.ORG@KERNEL.ORG big_key \___ http/KERNEL.ORG@KERNEL.ORG big_key What goes into a particular Kerberos cache is entirely up to userspace. Kernel support is limited to giving you the Kerberos cache keyring that you want. The user asks for their Kerberos cache by: krb_cache = keyctl_get_krbcache(uid, dest_keyring); The uid is -1 or the user's own UID for the user's own cache or the uid of some other user's cache (requires CAP_SETUID). This permits rpc.gssd or whatever to mess with the cache. The cache returned is a keyring named "_krb.<uid>" that the possessor can read, search, clear, invalidate, unlink from and add links to. Active LSMs get a chance to rule on whether the caller is permitted to make a link. Each uid's cache keyring is created when it first accessed and is given a timeout that is extended each time this function is called so that the keyring goes away after a while. The timeout is configurable by sysctl but defaults to three days. Each user_namespace struct gets a lazily-created keyring that serves as the register. The cache keyrings are added to it. This means that standard key search and garbage collection facilities are available. The user_namespace struct's register goes away when it does and anything left in it is then automatically gc'd.

2013-09-20perf: Fix capabilities bitfield compatibility in 'struct perf_event_mmap_page'Peter Zijlstra1-5/+9
Solve the problems around the broken definition of perf_event_mmap_page:: cap_usr_time and cap_usr_rdpmc fields which used to overlap, partially fixed by: 860f085b74e9 ("perf: Fix broken union in 'struct perf_event_mmap_page'") The problem with the fix (merged in v3.12-rc1 and not yet released officially), noticed by Vince Weaver is that the new behavior is not detectable by new user-space, and that due to the reuse of the field names it's easy to mis-compile a binary if old headers are used on a new kernel or new headers are used on an old kernel. To solve all that make this change explicit, detectable and self-contained, by iterating the ABI the following way: - Always clear bit 0, and rename it to usrpage->cap_bit0, to at least not confuse old user-space binaries. RDPMC will be marked as unavailable to old binaries but that's within the ABI, this is a capability bit. - Rename bit 1 to ->cap_bit0_is_deprecated and always set it to 1, so new libraries can reliably detect that bit 0 is deprecated and perma-zero without having to check the kernel version. - Use bits 2, 3, 4 for the newly defined, correct functionality: cap_user_rdpmc : 1, /* The RDPMC instruction can be used to read counts */ cap_user_time : 1, /* The time_* fields are used */ cap_user_time_zero : 1, /* The time_zero field is used */ - Rename all the bitfield names in perf_event.h to be different from the old names, to make sure it's not possible to mis-compile it accidentally with old assumptions. The 'size' field can then be used in the future to add new fields and it will act as a natural ABI version indicator as well. Also adjust tools/perf/ userspace for the new definitions, noticed by Adrian Hunter.
