2007-10-17x86: apply missing DMA/OOM prevention to floppy_32.hThomas Gleixner
commit 554d284ba90bc2306c31e5363789f05c320969c3 added _GPF_NORETRY to floppy_64.h to prevent OOM killer on floppy DMA allocations. Apply the same to the 32 bit variant.

2007-10-17x86: expand /proc/interrupts to include missing vectors, v2Joe Korty
Add missing IRQs and IRQ descriptions to /proc/interrupts. /proc/interrupts is most useful when it displays every IRQ vector in use by the system, not just those somebody thought would be interesting. This patch inserts the following vector displays to the i386 and x86_64 platforms, as appropriate: rescheduling interrupts TLB flush interrupts function call interrupts thermal event interrupts threshold interrupts spurious interrupts A threshold interrupt occurs when ECC memory correction is occuring at too high a frequency. Thresholds are used by the ECC hardware as occasional ECC failures are part of normal operation, but long sequences of ECC failures usually indicate a memory chip that is about to fail. Thermal event interrupts occur when a temperature threshold has been exceeded for some CPU chip. IIRC, a thermal interrupt is also generated when the temperature drops back to a normal level. A spurious interrupt is an interrupt that was raised then lowered by the device before it could be fully processed by the APIC. Hence the apic sees the interrupt but does not know what device it came from. For this case the APIC hardware will assume a vector of 0xff. Rescheduling, call, and TLB flush interrupts are sent from one CPU to another per the needs of the OS. Typically, their statistics would be used to discover if an interrupt flood of the given type has been occuring. AK: merged v2 and v4 which had some more tweaks AK: replace Local interrupts with Local timer interrupts AK: Fixed description of interrupt types.

2007-10-17Implement file posix capabilitiesSerge E. Hallyn
Implement file posix capabilities. This allows programs to be given a subset of root's powers regardless of who runs them, without having to use setuid and giving the binary all of root's powers. This version works with Kaigai Kohei's userspace tools, found at http://www.kaigai.gr.jp/index.php. For more information on how to use this patch, Chris Friedhoff has posted a nice page at http://www.friedhoff.org/fscaps.html. Changelog: Nov 27: Incorporate fixes from Andrew Morton (security-introduce-file-caps-tweaks and security-introduce-file-caps-warning-fix) Fix Kconfig dependency. Fix change signaling behavior when file caps are not compiled in. Nov 13: Integrate comments from Alexey: Remove CONFIG_ ifdef from capability.h, and use %zd for printing a size_t. Nov 13: Fix endianness warnings by sparse as suggested by Alexey Dobriyan. Nov 09: Address warnings of unused variables at cap_bprm_set_security when file capabilities are disabled, and simultaneously clean up the code a little, by pulling the new code into a helper function. Nov 08: For pointers to required userspace tools and how to use them, see http://www.friedhoff.org/fscaps.html. Nov 07: Fix the calculation of the highest bit checked in check_cap_sanity(). Nov 07: Allow file caps to be enabled without CONFIG_SECURITY, since capabilities are the default. Hook cap_task_setscheduler when !CONFIG_SECURITY. Move capable(TASK_KILL) to end of cap_task_kill to reduce audit messages. Nov 05: Add secondary calls in selinux/hooks.c to task_setioprio and task_setscheduler so that selinux and capabilities with file cap support can be stacked. Sep 05: As Seth Arnold points out, uid checks are out of place for capability code. Sep 01: Define task_setscheduler, task_setioprio, cap_task_kill, and task_setnice to make sure a user cannot affect a process in which they called a program with some fscaps. One remaining question is the note under task_setscheduler: are we ok with CAP_SYS_NICE being sufficient to confine a process to a cpuset? It is a semantic change, as without fsccaps, attach_task doesn't allow CAP_SYS_NICE to override the uid equivalence check. But since it uses security_task_setscheduler, which elsewhere is used where CAP_SYS_NICE can be used to override the uid equivalence check, fixing it might be tough. task_setscheduler note: this also controls cpuset:attach_task. Are we ok with CAP_SYS_NICE being used to confine to a cpuset? task_setioprio task_setnice sys_setpriority uses this (through set_one_prio) for another process. Need same checks as setrlimit Aug 21: Updated secureexec implementation to reflect the fact that euid and uid might be the same and nonzero, but the process might still have elevated caps. Aug 15: Handle endianness of xattrs. Enforce capability version match between kernel and disk. Enforce that no bits beyond the known max capability are set, else return -EPERM. With this extra processing, it may be worth reconsidering doing all the work at bprm_set_security rather than d_instantiate. Aug 10: Always call getxattr at bprm_set_security, rather than caching it at d_instantiate.
