| * [IPSEC]: Disallow combinations of RO and AH/ESP/IPCOMPHerbert Xu2007-10-184-12/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Combining RO and AH/ESP/IPCOMP does not make sense. So this patch adds a check in the state initialisation function to prevent this. This allows us to safely remove the mode input function of RO since it can never be called anymore. Indeed, if somehow it does get called we'll know about it through an OOPS instead of it slipping past silently. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

| * [IPSEC]: Use the top IPv4 route's peer instead of the bottomHerbert Xu2007-10-181-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For IPv4 we were using the bottom route's peer instead of the top one. This is wrong because the peer is only used by TCP to keep track of information about the TCP destination address which certainly does not live in the bottom route. This patch fixes that which allows us to get rid of the family check since the bottom route could be IPv6 while the top one must always be IPv4. I've also changed the other fields which are IPv4-specific to get the info from the top route instead of potentially bogus data from the bottom route.

| * [IPSEC]: Store afinfo pointer in xfrm_modeHerbert Xu2007-10-185-34/+21Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is convenient to have a pointer from xfrm_state to address-specific functions such as the output function for a family. Currently the address-specific policy code calls out to the xfrm state code to get those pointers when we could get it in an easier way via the state itself. This patch adds an xfrm_state_afinfo to xfrm_mode (since they're address-specific) and changes the policy code to use it. I've also added an owner field to do reference counting on the module providing the afinfo even though it isn't strictly necessary today since IPv6 can't be unloaded yet.

| * [IPSEC]: Add missing BEET checksHerbert Xu2007-10-1813-12/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently BEET mode does not reinject the packet back into the stack like tunnel mode does. Since BEET should behave just like tunnel mode this is incorrect. This patch fixes this by introducing a flags field to xfrm_mode that tells the IPsec code whether it should terminate and reinject the packet back into the stack. It then sets the flag for BEET and tunnel mode. I've also added a number of missing BEET checks elsewhere where we check whether a given mode is a tunnel or not.

| * [IPSEC]: Move type and mode map into xfrm_state.cHerbert Xu2007-10-182-173/+170Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The type and mode maps are only used by SAs, not policies. So it makes sense to move them from xfrm_policy.c into xfrm_state.c. This also allows us to mark xfrm_get_type/xfrm_put_type/xfrm_get_mode/xfrm_put_mode as static. The only other change I've made in the move is to get rid of the casts on the request_module call for types. They're unnecessary because C will promote them to ints anyway.

| * [IPSEC]: Fix length check in xfrm_parse_spiHerbert Xu2007-10-181-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently xfrm_parse_spi requires there to be 16 bytes for AH and ESP. In contrived cases there may not actually be 16 bytes there since the respective header sizes are less than that (8 and 12 currently). This patch changes the test to use the actual header length instead of 16. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
| * [IPSEC]: Move ip_summed zapping out of xfrm6_rcv_spiHerbert Xu2007-10-182-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Not every transform needs to zap ip_summed. For example, a pure tunnel mode encapsulation does not affect the hardware checksum at all. In fact, every algorithm (that needs this) other than AH6 already does its own ip_summed zapping. This patch moves the zapping into AH6 which is in line with what IPv4 does. Possible future optimisation: Checksum the data as we copy them in IPComp. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
| * [IPSEC]: Get nexthdr from caller in xfrm6_rcv_spiHerbert Xu2007-10-182-6/+5Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently xfrm6_rcv_spi gets the nexthdr value itself from the packet. This means that we need to fix up the value in case we have a 4-on-6 tunnel. Moving this logic into the caller simplifies things and allows us to merge the code with IPv4. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

| * [IPSEC]: Fix pure tunnel modes involving IPv6Herbert Xu2007-10-182-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I noticed that my recent patch broke 6-on-4 pure IPsec tunnels (the ones that are only used for incompressible IPsec packets). Subsequent reviews show that I broke 6-on-6 pure tunnels more than three years ago and nobody ever noticed. I suppose every must be testing 6-on-6 IPComp with large pings which are very compressible :) This patch fixes both cases.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The proposed fix is to delay the reference counter decrement until the quiescent state pass. This will give sk_clone() a chance to get the reference on the cloned filter. Regular sk_filter_uncharge can happen from the sk_free() only and there's no need in delaying the put - the socket is dead anyway and is to be release itself.

For that reason every user that accesses the file server tree has to authenticate and attach to the server separately. Multiple users can share the same connection to the server. Currently v9fs does a single attach and executes all I/O operations as a single user. This makes using v9fs in multiuser environment unsafe as it depends on the client doing the permission checking. This patch improves the 9P2000 support by allowing every user to attach separately. The patch defines three modes of access (new mount option 'access'): - attach-per-user (access=user) (default mode for 9P2000.u) If a user tries to access a file served by v9fs for the first time, v9fs sends an attach command to the server (Tattach) specifying the user. If the attach succeeds, the user can access the v9fs tree. As there is no uname->uid (string->integer) mapping yet, this mode works only with the 9P2000.u dialect. - allow only one user to access the tree (access=<uid>) Only the user with uid can access the v9fs tree. Other users that attempt to access it will get EPERM error. - do all operations as a single user (access=any) (default for 9P2000) V9fs does a single attach and all operations are done as a single user. If this mode is selected, the v9fs behavior is identical with the current one. Signed-off-by: Latchesar Ionkov <lucho@ionkov.net> Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
* | 9p: Make transports dynamicEric Van Hensbergen2007-10-175-159/+281
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch abstracts out the interfaces to underlying transports so that new transports can be added as modules. This should also allow kernel configuration of transports without ifdef-hell. Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
* | r/o bind mounts: filesystem helpers for custom 'struct file'sDave Hansen2007-10-171-9/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Why do we need r/o bind mounts? This feature allows a read-only view into a read-write filesystem. In the process of doing that, it also provides infrastructure for keeping track of the number of writers to any given mount. This has a number of uses. It allows chroots to have parts of filesystems writable. It will be useful for containers in the future because users may have root inside a container, but should not be allowed to write to somefilesystems. This also replaces patches that vserver has had out of the tree for several years. It allows security enhancement by making sure that parts of your filesystem read-only (such as when you don't trust your FTP server), when you don't want to have entire new filesystems mounted, or when you want atime selectively updated. I've been using the following script to test that the feature is working as desired. It takes a directory and makes a regular bind and a r/o bind mount of it. It then performs some normal filesystem operations on the three directories, including ones that are expected to fail, like creating a file on the r/o mount. This patch: Some filesystems forego the vfs and may_open() and create their own 'struct file's. This patch creates a couple of helper functions which can be used by these filesystems, and will provide a unified place which the r/o bind mount code may patch. Also, rename an existing, static-scope init_file() to a less generic name.

* | KEYS: Make request_key() and co fundamentally asynchronousDavid Howells2007-10-172-3/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make request_key() and co fundamentally asynchronous to make it easier for NFS to make use of them. There are now accessor functions that do asynchronous constructions, a wait function to wait for construction to complete, and a completion function for the key type to indicate completion of construction. Note that the construction queue is now gone. Instead, keys under construction are linked in to the appropriate keyring in advance, and that anyone encountering one must wait for it to be complete before they can use it. This is done automatically for userspace. The following auxiliary changes are also made: (1) Key type implementation stuff is split from linux/key.h into linux/key-type.h. (2) AF_RXRPC provides a way to allocate null rxrpc-type keys so that AFS does not need to call key_instantiate_and_link() directly. (3) Adjust the debugging macros so that they're -Wformat checked even if they are disabled, and make it so they can be enabled simply by defining __KDEBUG to be consistent with other code of mine.

* | Remove "unsafe" from module structRusty Russell2007-10-171-1/+0Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adrian Bunk points out that "unsafe" was used to mark modules touched by the deprecated MOD_INC_USE_COUNT interface, which has long gone. It's time to remove the member from the module structure, as well. If you want a module which can't unload, don't register an exit function. (Vlad Yasevich says SCTP is now safe to unload, so just remove the __unsafe there).
