2008-04-29proc: introduce proc_create_data to setup de->dataDenis V. Lunev
This set of patches fixes an proc ->open'less usage due to ->proc_fops flip in the most part of the kernel code. The original OOPS is described in the commit 2d3a4e3666325a9709cc8ea2e88151394e8f20fc: Typical PDE creation code looks like: pde = create_proc_entry("foo", 0, NULL); if (pde) pde->proc_fops = &foo_proc_fops; Notice that PDE is first created, only then ->proc_fops is set up to final value. This is a problem because right after creation a) PDE is fully visible in /proc , and b) ->proc_fops are proc_file_operations which do not have ->open callback. So, it's possible to ->read without ->open (see one class of oopses below). The fix is new API called proc_create() which makes sure ->proc_fops are set up before gluing PDE to main tree. Typical new code looks like: pde = proc_create("foo", 0, NULL, &foo_proc_fops); if (!pde) return -ENOMEM; Fix most networking users for a start. In the long run, create_proc_entry() for regular files will go. In addition to this, proc_create_data is introduced to fix reading from proc without PDE->data. The race is basically the same as above. create_proc_entries is replaced in the entire kernel code as new method is also simply better. This patch: The problem is the same as for de->proc_fops. Right now PDE becomes visible without data set. So, the entry could be looked up without data. This, in most cases, will simply OOPS. proc_create_data call is created to address this issue. proc_create now becomes a wrapper around it. Signed-off-by: Denis V. Lunev <den@openvz.org> Cc: "Eric W.

Now that last dozen or so users of ->get_info were removed, ditch it too. Everyone sane shouldd have switched to seq_file interface long ago. P.S.: Co-existing 3 interfaces (->get_info/->read_proc/->proc_fops) for proc is long-standing crap, BTW, thus a) put ->read_proc/->write_proc/read_proc_entry() users on death row, b) new such users should be rejected, c) everyone is encouraged to convert his favourite ->read_proc user or I'll do it, lazy bastards.

2008-04-29proc: remove proc_root from driversAlexey Dobriyan
Remove proc_root export. Creation and removal works well if parent PDE is supplied as NULL -- it worked always that way. So, one useless export removed and consistency added, some drivers created PDEs with &proc_root as parent but removed them as NULL and so on.

2008-04-29proc: drop several "PDE valid/invalid" checksAlexey Dobriyan
proc-misc code is noticeably full of "if (de)" checks when PDE passed is always valid. Remove them. Addition of such check in proc_lookup_de() is for failed lookup case.

2008-04-29proc: less special case in xlate codeAlexey Dobriyan
If valid "parent" is passed to proc_create/remove_proc_entry(), then name of PDE should consist of only one path component, otherwise creation or or removal will fail. However, if NULL is passed as parent then create/remove accept full path as a argument. This is arbitrary restriction -- all infrastructure is in place. So, patch allows the following to succeed: create_proc_entry("foo/bar", 0, pde_baz); remove_proc_entry("baz/foo/bar", &proc_root); Also makes the following to behave identically: create_proc_entry("foo/bar", 0, NULL); create_proc_entry("foo/bar", 0, &proc_root); Discrepancy noticed by Den Lunev (IIRC).

2008-04-29proc: simplify locking in remove_proc_entry()Alexey Dobriyan
proc_subdir_lock protects only modifying and walking through PDE lists, so after we've found PDE to remove and actually removed it from lists, there is no need to hold proc_subdir_lock for the rest of operation.

2008-04-29procfs: mem permission cleanupRoland McGrath
This cleans up the permission checks done for /proc/PID/mem i/o calls. It puts all the logic in a new function, check_mem_permission(). The old code repeated the (!MAY_PTRACE(task) || !ptrace_may_attach(task)) magical expression multiple times. The new function does all that work in one place, with clear comments. The old code called security_ptrace() twice on successful checks, once in MAY_PTRACE() and once in __ptrace_may_attach(). Now it's only called once, and only if all other checks have succeeded.

2008-04-29procfs task exe symlinkMatt Helsley
The kernel implements readlink of /proc/pid/exe by getting the file from the first executable VMA. Then the path to the file is reconstructed and reported as the result. Because of the VMA walk the code is slightly different on nommu systems. This patch avoids separate /proc/pid/exe code on nommu systems. Instead of walking the VMAs to find the first executable file-backed VMA we store a reference to the exec'd file in the mm_struct. That reference would prevent the filesystem holding the executable file from being unmounted even after unmapping the VMAs. So we track the number of VM_EXECUTABLE VMAs and drop the new reference when the last one is unmapped. This avoids pinning the mounted filesystem.
