SELinux: return EOPNOTSUPP not ENOTSUPP

2007-11-16T23:38:16+00:00

ENOTSUPP is not a valid error code in the kernel (it is defined in some NFS internal error codes and has been improperly used other places). In the !CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX case though it is possible that we could return this from selinux_audit_rule_init(). This patch just returns the userspace valid EOPNOTSUPP.

dirty page balancing: Get rid of broken unmapped_ratio logic

2007-11-16T00:41:52+00:00

This code harks back to the days when we didn't count dirty mapped pages, which led us to try to balance the number of dirty unmapped pages by how much unmapped memory there was in the system. That makes no sense any more, since now the dirty counts include the mapped pages. Not to mention that the math doesn't work with HIGHMEM machines anyway, and causes the unmapped_ratio to potentially turn negative (which we do catch thanks to clamping it at a minimum value, but I mention that as an indication of how broken the code is). The code also was written at a time when the default dirty ratio was much larger, and the unmapped_ratio logic effectively capped that large dirty ratio a bit. Again, we've since lowered the dirty ratio rather aggressively, further lessening the point of that code. Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[NETFILTER]: Fix NULL pointer dereference in nf_nat_move_storage()

2007-11-15T23:52:32+00:00

Reported by Chuck Ebbert as: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=259501#c14 This routine is called each time hash should be replaced, nf_conn has extension list which contains pointers to connection tracking users (like nat, which is right now the only such user), so when replace takes place it should copy own extensions. Loop above checks for own extension, but tries to move higer-layer one, which can lead to above oops. Signed-off-by: Evgeniy Polyakov Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
