2009-10-16KEYS: get_instantiation_keyring() should inc the keyring refcount in all casesDavid Howells1-1/+1
The destination keyring specified to request_key() and co. is made available to the process that instantiates the key (the slave process started by /sbin/request-key typically). This is passed in the request_key_auth struct as the dest_keyring member. keyctl_instantiate_key and keyctl_negate_key() call get_instantiation_keyring() to get the keyring to attach the newly constructed key to at the end of instantiation. This may be given a specific keyring into which a link will be made later, or it may be asked to find the keyring passed to request_key(). In the former case, it returns a keyring with the refcount incremented by lookup_user_key(); in the latter case, it returns the keyring from the request_key_auth struct - and does _not_ increment the refcount. The latter case will eventually result in an oops when the keyring prematurely runs out of references and gets destroyed. The effect may take some time to show up as the key is destroyed lazily. To fix this, the keyring returned by get_instantiation_keyring() must always have its refcount incremented, no matter where it comes from. This can be tested by setting /etc/request-key.conf to: #OP TYPE DESCRIPTION CALLOUT INFO PROGRAM ARG1 ARG2 ARG3 ... #====== ======= =============== =============== =============================== create * test:* * |/bin/false %u %g %d %{user:_display} negate * * * /bin/keyctl negate %k 10 @u and then doing: keyctl add user _display aaaaaaaa @u while keyctl request2 user test:x test:x @u && keyctl list @u; do keyctl request2 user test:x test:x @u; sleep 31; keyctl list @u; done which will oops eventually. Changing the negate line to have @u rather than %S at the end is important as that forces the latter case by passing a special keyring ID rather than an actual keyring ID.

2009-10-15OMAP: Fix race condition with autodepsKalle Jokiniemi1-30/+44
There is a possible race condition in clockdomain code handling hw supported idle transitions. When multiple autodeps dependencies are being added or removed, a transition of still remaining dependent powerdomain can result in false readings of the state counter. This is especially fatal for off mode state counter, as it could result in a driver not noticing a context loss. Fixed by disabling hw supported state transitions when autodeps are being changed.

2009-10-15sysfs: Allow sysfs_notify_dirent to be called from interrupt context.Neil Brown1-6/+8
sysfs_notify_dirent is a simple atomic operation that can be used to alert user-space that new data can be read from a sysfs attribute. Unfortunately it cannot currently be called from non-process context because of its use of spin_lock which is sometimes taken with interrupts enabled. So change all lockers of sysfs_open_dirent_lock to disable interrupts, thus making sysfs_notify_dirent safe to be called from non-process context (as drivers/md does in md_safemode_timeout). sysfs_get_open_dirent is (documented as being) only called from process context, so it uses spin_lock_irq. Other places use spin_lock_irqsave. The usage for sysfs_notify_dirent in md_safemode_timeout was introduced in 2.6.28, so this patch is suitable for that and more recent kernels.
