1448c721e4 compat: sync compat_stats with statfs.
This was found by inspection while tracking a similar
bug in compat_statfs64, that has been fixed in mainline
since decemeber.

- This fixes a bug where not all of the f_spare fields
  were cleared on mips and s390.
- Add the f_flags field to struct compat_statfs
- Copy f_flags to userspace in case someone cares.
- Use __clear_user to copy the f_spare field to userspace
  to ensure that all of the elements of f_spare are cleared.
  On some architectures f_spare is has 5 ints and on some
  architectures f_spare only has 4 ints.  Which makes
  the previous technique of clearing each int individually
  broken.

I don't expect anyone actually uses the old statfs system
call anymore but if they do let them benefit from having
the compat and the native version working the same.

49b28684fd nfsd: Remove deprecated nfsctl system call and related code.
As promised in feature-removal-schedule.txt it is time to
remove the nfsctl system call.

Userspace has perferred to not use this call throughout 2.6 and it has been
excluded in the default configuration since 2.6.36 (9 months ago).

So this patch removes all the code that was being compiled out.

There are still references to sys_nfsctl in various arch systemcall tables
and related code.  These should be cleaned out too, probably in the next
merge window.

0e028465d1 exec: unify do_execve/compat_do_execve code
Add the appropriate members into struct user_arg_ptr and teach
get_user_arg_ptr() to handle is_compat = T case correctly.

This allows us to remove the compat_do_execve() code from fs/compat.c
and reimplement compat_do_execve() as the trivial wrapper on top of
do_execve_common(is_compat => true).

In fact, this fixes another (minor) bug. "compat_uptr_t str" can
overflow after "str += len" in compat_copy_strings() if a 64bit
application execs via sys32_execve().

Unexport acct_arg_size() and get_arg_page(), fs/compat.c doesn't
need them any longer.

114279be21 exec: copy-and-paste the fixes into compat_do_execve() paths
Note: this patch targets 2.6.37 and tries to be as simple as possible.
That is why it adds more copy-and-paste horror into fs/compat.c and
uglifies fs/exec.c, this will be cleanuped later.

compat_copy_strings() plays with bprm->vma/mm directly and thus has
two problems: it lacks the RLIMIT_STACK check and argv/envp memory
is not visible to oom killer.

Export acct_arg_size() and get_arg_page(), change compat_copy_strings()
to use get_arg_page(), change compat_do_execve() to do acct_arg_size(0)
as do_execve() does.

Add the fatal_signal_pending/cond_resched checks into compat_count() and
compat_copy_strings(), this matches the code in fs/exec.c and certainly
makes sense.

504b701bb1 fs/compat.c: fix build on MIPS/s390

MAX_RW_COUNT, and on x86-64 that gets done indirectly through the

and we need to make sure that fs/compat.c includes pagemap.h explicitly.

435f49a518 readv/writev: do the same MAX_RW_COUNT truncation that read/write does
We used to protect against overflow, but rather than return an error, do
what read/write does, namely to limit the total size to MAX_RW_COUNT.
This is not only more consistent, but it also means that any broken
low-level read/write routine that still keeps counts in 'int' can't
break.

2116b7a473 smbfs: move to drivers/staging
smbfs has been scheduled for removal in 2.6.27, so
maybe we can now move it to drivers/staging on the

smbfs still uses the big kernel lock and nobody

rid of it soon.

This removes the 32 bit compat mount and ioctl
handling code, which is implemented in common fs

767b68e969 Prevent freeing uninitialized pointer in compat_do_readv_writev
In 32-bit compatibility mode, the error handling for
compat_do_readv_writev() may free an uninitialized pointer, potentially
leading to all sorts of ugly memory corruption.  This is reliably
triggerable by unprivileged users by invoking the readv()/writev()
syscalls with an invalid iovec pointer.  The below patch fixes this to
emulate the non-compat version.

The warnings are related to the use of the NAME_OFFSET() macro.  Luckily,
it appears as though the standard offsetof() macro is what is being
implemented by NAME_OFFSET(), thus we can fix the warning and use a more
standard code construct at the same time.

9d85cba718 aio: fix the compat vectored operations
The aio compat code was not converting the struct iovecs from 32bit to
64bit pointers, causing either EINVAL to be returned from io_getevents, or
EFAULT as the result of the I/O.  This patch passes a compat flag to
io_submit to signal that pointer conversion is necessary for a given iocb
array.

A variant of this was tested by Michael Tokarev.  I have also updated the
libaio test harness to exercise this code path with good success.
Further, I grabbed a copy of ltp and ran the
testcases/kernel/syscall/readv and writev tests there (compiled with -m32
on my 64bit system).  All seems happy, but extra eyes on this would be
welcome.

It was reported in http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/3/8/309 that 32 bit readv and

the code to convert the 32bit io vectors to 64 bits was never written.
The results of that can be pretty bad, but in my testing, it mostly ended
up in generating EFAULT as we walked off the list of I/O vectors provided.

This patch set fixes the problem in my environment.  are greatly

Commit c44972f1 ("procfs: disable per-task stack usage on NOMMU") was
applied to fix the NO_MMU case.

Commit 89240ba0 ("x86, fs: Fix x86 procfs stack information for threads on
64-bit") was applied to fix a bug in ia32 executables being loaded.

Commit 9ebd4eba7 ("procfs: fix /proc/<pid>/stat stack pointer for kernel
threads") was applied to fix a bug which had kernel threads printing a
userland stack address.

Commit 1306d603f ('proc: partially revert "procfs: provide stack
information for threads"') was then applied to revert the stack pages
being used to solve a significant performance regression.

This patch nearly undoes the effect of all these patches.

The reason for reverting these is it provides an unusable value in
field 28.  For x86_64, a fork will result in the task->stack_start
value being updated to the current user top of stack and not the stack
start address.  This unpredictability of the stack_start value makes
it worthless.  That includes the intended use of showing how much stack
space a thread has.

Other architectures will get different values.  As an example, ia64
gets 0.  The do_fork() and copy_process() functions appear to treat the
stack_start and stack_size parameters as architecture specific.

I only partially reverted c44972f1 ("procfs: disable per-task stack usage
on NOMMU") .  If I had completely reverted it, I would have had to change
mm/Makefile only build pagewalk.o when CONFIG_PROC_PAGE_MONITOR is
configured.  Since I could not test the builds without significant effort,
I decided to not change mm/Makefile.

I only partially reverted 89240ba0 ("x86, fs: Fix x86 procfs stack
information for threads on 64-bit") .  I left the KSTK_ESP() change in
place as that seemed worthwhile.

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

89240ba059 x86, fs: Fix x86 procfs stack information for threads on 64-bit
This patch fixes two issues in the procfs stack information on
x86-64 linux.

The 32 bit loader compat_do_execve did not store stack
start. (this was figured out by Alexey Dobriyan).

The stack information on a x64_64 kernel always shows 0 kbyte
stack usage, because of a missing implementation of the KSTK_ESP
macro which always returned -1.

The new implementation now returns the right value.

eca6f534e6 fs: fix overflow in sys_mount() for in-kernel calls
sys_mount() reads/copies a whole page for its "type" parameter.  When
do_mount_root() passes a kernel address that points to an object which is
smaller than a whole page, copy_mount_options() will happily go past this
memory object, possibly dereferencing "wild" pointers that could be in any
state (hence the kmemcheck warning, which shows that parts of the next
page are not even allocated).

(The likelihood of something going wrong here is pretty low -- first of
all this only applies to kernel calls to sys_mount(), which are mostly
found in the boot code.  Secondly, I guess if the page was not mapped,
exact_copy_from_user() _would_ in fact handle it correctly because of its
access_ok(), etc.  checks.)

But it is much nicer to avoid the dubious reads altogether, by stopping as
soon as we find a NUL byte.  Is there a good reason why we can't do
something like this, using the already existing strndup_from_user()?

a2a8474c3f exec: do not sleep in TASK_TRACED under ->cred_guard_mutex
Tom Horsley reports that his debugger hangs when it tries to read
/proc/pid_of_tracee/maps, this happens since

	"mm_for_maps: take ->cred_guard_mutex to fix the race with exec"
	04b836cbf19e885f8366bccb2e4b0474346c02d

commit in 2.6.31.

But the root of the problem lies in the fact that do_execve() path calls
tracehook_report_exec() which can stop if the tracer sets PT_TRACE_EXEC.

The tracee must not sleep in TASK_TRACED holding this mutex.  Even if we
remove ->cred_guard_mutex from mm_for_maps() and proc_pid_attr_write(),
another task doing PTRACE_ATTACH should not hang until it is killed or the
tracee resumes.

With this patch do_execve() does not use ->cred_guard_mutex directly and
we do not hold it throughout, instead:

	- introduce prepare_bprm_creds() helper, it locks the mutex
	  and calls prepare_exec_creds() to initialize bprm->cred.

	- install_exec_creds() drops the mutex after commit_creds(),
	  and thus before tracehook_report_exec()->ptrace_stop().

	  or, if exec fails,

	  free_bprm() drops this mutex when bprm->cred != NULL which
	  indicates install_exec_creds() was not called.

8c652f96d3 do_execve() must not clear fs->in_exec if it was set by another thread
If do_execve() fails after check_unsafe_exec(), it clears fs->in_exec
unconditionally. This is wrong if we race with our sub-thread which
also does do_execve:

	Two threads T1 and T2 and another process P, all share the same
	->fs.

	T1 starts do_execve(BAD_FILE). It calls check_unsafe_exec(), since
	->fs is shared, we set LSM_UNSAFE but not ->in_exec.

	P exits and decrements fs->users.

	T2 starts do_execve(), calls check_unsafe_exec(), now ->fs is not
	shared, we set fs->in_exec.

	T1 continues, open_exec(BAD_FILE) fails, we clear ->in_exec and
	return to the user-space.

	T1 does clone(CLONE_FS /* without CLONE_THREAD */).

	T2 continues without LSM_UNSAFE_SHARE while ->fs is shared with
	another process.

Change check_unsafe_exec() to return res = 1 if we set ->in_exec, and change
do_execve() to clear ->in_exec depending on res.

When do_execve() suceeds, it is safe to clear ->in_exec unconditionally.
It can be set only if we don't share ->fs with another process, and since
we already killed all sub-threads either ->in_exec == 0 or we are the
only user of this ->fs.

Also, we do not need fs->lock to clear fs->in_exec.

601cc11d05 Make non-compat preadv/pwritev use native register size
Instead of always splitting the file offset into 32-bit 'high' and 'low'
parts, just split them into the largest natural word-size - which in C
terms is 'unsigned long'.

This allows 64-bit architectures to avoid the unnecessary 32-bit
shifting and masking for native format (while the compat interfaces will
obviously always have to do it).

This also changes the order of 'high' and 'low' to be "low first".  Why?
Because when we have it like this, the 64-bit system calls now don't use
the "pos_high" argument at all, and it makes more sense for the native
system call to simply match the user-mode prototype.

This results in a much more natural calling convention, and allows the
compiler to generate much more straightforward code.  On x86-64, we now
generate

        testq   %rcx, %rcx      # pos_l
        js      .L122   #,
        movq    %rcx, -48(%rbp) # pos_l, pos

from the C source

        loff_t pos = pos_from_hilo(pos_h, pos_l);
	...
        if (pos < 0)
                return -EINVAL;

and the 'pos_h' register isn't even touched.  It used to generate code
like

        mov     %r8d, %r8d      # pos_low, pos_low
        salq    $32, %rcx       #, tmp71
        movq    %r8, %rax       # pos_low, pos.386
        orq     %rcx, %rax      # tmp71, pos.386
        js      .L122   #,
        movq    %rax, -48(%rbp) # pos.386, pos

which isn't _that_ horrible, but it does show how the natural word size
is just a more sensible interface (same arguments will hold in the user
level glibc wrapper function, of course, so the kernel side is just half
of the equation!)

Note: in all cases the user code wrapper can again be the same. You can
just do

	#define HALF_BITS (sizeof(unsigned long)*4)
	__syscall(PWRITEV, fd, iov, count, offset, (offset >> HALF_BITS) >> HALF_BITS);

or something like that.  That way the user mode wrapper will also be
nicely passing in a zero (it won't actually have to do the shifts, the
compiler will understand what is going on) for the last argument.

And that is a good idea, even if nobody will necessarily ever care: if
we ever do move to a 128-bit lloff_t, this particular system call might
be left alone.  Of course, that will be the least of our worries if we
really ever need to care, so this may not be worth really caring about.

f3554f4bc6 preadv/pwritev: Add preadv and pwritev system calls.
This patch adds preadv and pwritev system calls.  These syscalls are a
pretty straightforward combination of pread and readv (same for write).
They are quite useful for doing vectored I/O in threaded applications.
Using lseek+readv instead opens race windows you'll have to plug with
locking.

Other systems have such system calls too, for example NetBSD, check
here: http://www.daemon-systems.org/man/preadv.2.html

The application-visible interface provided by glibc should look like
this to be compatible to the existing implementations in the *BSD family:

  ssize_t preadv(int d, const struct iovec *iov, int iovcnt, off_t offset);
  ssize_t pwritev(int d, const struct iovec *iov, int iovcnt, off_t offset);

This prototype has one problem though: On 32bit archs is the (64bit)
offset argument unaligned, which the syscall ABI of several archs doesn't
allow to do.  At least s390 needs a wrapper in glibc to handle this.  As
we'll need a wrappers in glibc anyway I've decided to push problem to
glibc entriely and use a syscall prototype which works without
arch-specific wrappers inside the kernel: The offset argument is
explicitly splitted into two 32bit values.

The patch sports the actual system call implementation and the windup in
the x86 system call tables.  Other archs follow as separate patches.

e426b64c41 fix setuid sometimes doesn't
Joe Malicki reports that setuid sometimes doesn't: very rarely,
a setuid root program does not get root euid; and, by the way,
they have a health check running lsof every few minutes.

Right, check_unsafe_exec() notes whether the files_struct is being
shared by more threads than will get killed by the exec, and if so
sets LSM_UNSAFE_SHARE to make bprm_set_creds() careful about euid.
But /proc/<pid>/fd and /proc/<pid>/fdinfo lookups make transient
use of get_files_struct(), which also raises that sharing count.

There's a rather simple fix for this: exec's check on files->count
has been redundant ever since 2.6.1 made it unshare_files() (except
while compat_do_execve() omitted to do so) - just remove that check.

[Note to -stable: this patch will not apply before 2.6.29: earlier
releases should just remove the files->count line from unsafe_exec().]

53e9309e01 compat_do_execve should unshare_files
2.6.26's commit fd8328be87
"sanitize handling of shared descriptor tables in failing execve()"
moved the unshare_files() from flush_old_exec() and several binfmts
to the head of do_execve(); but forgot to make the same change to
compat_do_execve(), leaving a CLONE_FILES files_struct shared across
exec from a 32-bit process on a 64-bit kernel.

It's arguable whether the files_struct really ought to be unshared
across exec; but 2.6.1 made that so to stop the loading binary's fd
leaking into other threads, and a 32-bit process on a 64-bit kernel
ought to behave in the same way as 32 on 32 and 64 on 64.

2b1c6bd77d generic compat_sys_ustat
Due to a different size of ino_t ustat needs a compat handler, but
currently only x86 and mips provide one.  Add a generic compat_sys_ustat
and switch all architectures over to it.  Instead of doing various
user copy hacks compat_sys_ustat just reimplements sys_ustat as
it's trivial.  This was suggested by Arnd Bergmann.

Found by Eric Sandeen when running xfstests/017 on ppc64, which causes
stack smashing warnings on RHEL/Fedora due to the too large amount of
data writen by the syscall.

0bf2f3aec5 CRED: Fix SUID exec regression
The patch:

	commit a6f76f23d2
	CRED: Make execve() take advantage of copy-on-write credentials

moved the place in which the 'safeness' of a SUID/SGID exec was performed to
before de_thread() was called.  This means that LSM_UNSAFE_SHARE is now
calculated incorrectly.  This flag is set if any of the usage counts for
fs_struct, files_struct and sighand_struct are greater than 1 at the time the
determination is made.  All of which are true for threads created by the
pthread library.

However, since we wish to make the security calculation before irrevocably
damaging the process so that we can return it an error code in the case where
we decide we want to reject the exec request on this basis, we have to make the
determination before calling de_thread().

So, instead, we count up the number of threads (CLONE_THREAD) that are sharing
our fs_struct (CLONE_FS), files_struct (CLONE_FILES) and sighand_structs
(CLONE_SIGHAND/CLONE_THREAD) with us.  These will be killed by de_thread() and
so can be discounted by check_unsafe_exec().

We do have to be careful because CLONE_THREAD does not imply FS or FILES.

We _assume_ that there will be no extra references to these structs held by the
threads we're going to kill.

This can be tested with the attached pair of programs.  Build the two programs
using the Makefile supplied, and run ./test1 as a non-root user.  If
successful, you should see something like:

	[dhowells@andromeda tmp]$ ./test1
	--TEST1--
	uid=4043, euid=4043 suid=4043
	exec ./test2
	--TEST2--
	uid=4043, euid=0 suid=0
	SUCCESS - Correct effective user ID

and if unsuccessful, something like:

	[dhowells@andromeda tmp]$ ./test1
	--TEST1--
	uid=4043, euid=4043 suid=4043
	exec ./test2
	--TEST2--
	uid=4043, euid=4043 suid=4043
	ERROR - Incorrect effective user ID!

The non-root user ID you see will depend on the user you run as.

a6f76f23d2 CRED: Make execve() take advantage of copy-on-write credentials
Make execve() take advantage of copy-on-write credentials, allowing it to set
up the credentials in advance, and then commit the whole lot after the point
of no return.

This patch and the preceding patches have been tested with the LTP SELinux
testsuite.

This patch makes several logical sets of alteration:

 (1) execve().

     The credential bits from struct linux_binprm are, for the most part,
     replaced with a single credentials pointer (bprm->cred).  This means that
     all the creds can be calculated in advance and then applied at the point
     of no return with no possibility of failure.

     I would like to replace bprm->cap_effective with:

	cap_isclear(bprm->cap_effective)

     but this seems impossible due to special behaviour for processes of pid 1
     (they always retain their parent's capability masks where normally they'd
     be changed - see cap_bprm_set_creds()).

     The following sequence of events now happens:

     (a) At the start of do_execve, the current task's cred_exec_mutex is
     	 locked to prevent PTRACE_ATTACH from obsoleting the calculation of
     	 creds that we make.

     (a) prepare_exec_creds() is then called to make a copy of the current
     	 task's credentials and prepare it.  This copy is then assigned to
     	 bprm->cred.

  	 This renders security_bprm_alloc() and security_bprm_free()
     	 unnecessary, and so they've been removed.

     (b) The determination of unsafe execution is now performed immediately
     	 after (a) rather than later on in the code.  The result is stored in
     	 bprm->unsafe for future reference.

     (c) prepare_binprm() is called, possibly multiple times.

     	 (i) This applies the result of set[ug]id binaries to the new creds
     	     attached to bprm->cred.  Personality bit clearance is recorded,
     	     but now deferred on the basis that the exec procedure may yet
     	     fail.

         (ii) This then calls the new security_bprm_set_creds().  This should
	     calculate the new LSM and capability credentials into *bprm->cred.

	     This folds together security_bprm_set() and parts of
	     security_bprm_apply_creds() (these two have been removed).
	     Anything that might fail must be done at this point.

         (iii) bprm->cred_prepared is set to 1.

	     bprm->cred_prepared is 0 on the first pass of the security
	     calculations, and 1 on all subsequent passes.  This allows SELinux
	     in (ii) to base its calculations only on the initial script and
	     not on the interpreter.

     (d) flush_old_exec() is called to commit the task to execution.  This
     	 performs the following steps with regard to credentials:

	 (i) Clear pdeath_signal and set dumpable on certain circumstances that
	     may not be covered by commit_creds().

         (ii) Clear any bits in current->personality that were deferred from
             (c.i).

     (e) install_exec_creds() [compute_creds() as was] is called to install the
     	 new credentials.  This performs the following steps with regard to
     	 credentials:

         (i) Calls security_bprm_committing_creds() to apply any security
             requirements, such as flushing unauthorised files in SELinux, that
             must be done before the credentials are changed.

	     This is made up of bits of security_bprm_apply_creds() and
	     security_bprm_post_apply_creds(), both of which have been removed.
	     This function is not allowed to fail; anything that might fail
	     must have been done in (c.ii).

         (ii) Calls commit_creds() to apply the new credentials in a single
             assignment (more or less).  Possibly pdeath_signal and dumpable
             should be part of struct creds.

	 (iii) Unlocks the task's cred_replace_mutex, thus allowing
	     PTRACE_ATTACH to take place.

         (iv) Clears The bprm->cred pointer as the credentials it was holding
             are now immutable.

         (v) Calls security_bprm_committed_creds() to apply any security
             alterations that must be done after the creds have been changed.
             SELinux uses this to flush signals and signal handlers.

     (f) If an error occurs before (d.i), bprm_free() will call abort_creds()
     	 to destroy the proposed new credentials and will then unlock
     	 cred_replace_mutex.  No changes to the credentials will have been
     	 made.

 (2) LSM interface.

     A number of functions have been changed, added or removed:

     (*) security_bprm_alloc(), ->bprm_alloc_security()
     (*) security_bprm_free(), ->bprm_free_security()

     	 Removed in favour of preparing new credentials and modifying those.

     (*) security_bprm_apply_creds(), ->bprm_apply_creds()
     (*) security_bprm_post_apply_creds(), ->bprm_post_apply_creds()

     	 Removed; split between security_bprm_set_creds(),
     	 security_bprm_committing_creds() and security_bprm_committed_creds().

     (*) security_bprm_set(), ->bprm_set_security()

     	 Removed; folded into security_bprm_set_creds().

     (*) security_bprm_set_creds(), ->bprm_set_creds()

     	 New.  The new credentials in bprm->creds should be checked and set up
     	 as appropriate.  bprm->cred_prepared is 0 on the first call, 1 on the
     	 second and subsequent calls.

     (*) security_bprm_committing_creds(), ->bprm_committing_creds()
     (*) security_bprm_committed_creds(), ->bprm_committed_creds()

     	 New.  Apply the security effects of the new credentials.  This
     	 includes closing unauthorised files in SELinux.  This function may not
     	 fail.  When the former is called, the creds haven't yet been applied
     	 to the process; when the latter is called, they have.

 	 The former may access bprm->cred, the latter may not.

 (3) SELinux.

     SELinux has a number of changes, in addition to those to support the LSM
     interface changes mentioned above:

     (a) The bprm_security_struct struct has been removed in favour of using
     	 the credentials-under-construction approach.

     (c) flush_unauthorized_files() now takes a cred pointer and passes it on
     	 to inode_has_perm(), file_has_perm() and dentry_open().

4d36a9e65d select: deal with math overflow from borderline valid userland data
Some userland apps seem to pass in a "0" for the seconds, and several
seconds worth of usecs to select().  The old kernels accepted this just
fine, so the new kernels must too.

However, due to the upscaling of the microseconds to nanoseconds we had
some cases where we got math overflow, and depending on the GCC version
(due to inlining decisions) that actually resulted in an -EINVAL return.

This patch fixes this by adding the excess microseconds to the seconds
field.

Also with thanks to Marcin Slusarz for spotting some implementation bugs
in the diagnostics patches.

f7a5000f7a compat: move cp_compat_stat to common code
struct stat / compat_stat is the same on all architectures, so
cp_compat_stat should be, too.

Turns out it is, except that various architectures have slightly and some
high2lowuid/high2lowgid or the direct assignment instead of the
SET_UID/SET_GID that expands to the correct one anyway.

This patch replaces the arch-specific cp_compat_stat implementations with
a common one based on the x86-64 one.

362e6663ef exec.c, compat.c: fix count(), compat_count() bounds checking
With MAX_ARG_STRINGS set to 0x7FFFFFFF, and being passed to 'count()' and
compat_count(), it would appear that the current max bounds check of
fs/exec.c:394:

	if(++i > max)
		return -E2BIG;

would never trigger. Since 'i' is of type int, so values would wrap and the
function would continue looping.

Simple fix seems to be chaning ++i to i++ and checking for '>='.

8ff3e8e85f select: switch select() and poll() over to hrtimers
With lots of help, input and cleanups from Thomas Gleixner

This patch switches select() and poll() over to hrtimers.

The core of the patch is replacing the "s64 timeout" with a
"struct timespec end_time" in all the plumbing.

But most of the diffstat comes from using the just introduced helpers:
	poll_select_set_timeout
	poll_select_copy_remaining
	timespec_add_safe
which make manipulating the timespec easier and less error-prone.

b773ad40ac select: add poll_select_set_timeout() and poll_select_copy_remaining() helpers
This patch adds 2 helpers that will be used for the hrtimer based select/poll:

poll_select_set_timeout() is a helper that takes a timeout (as a second, nanosecond
pair) and turns that into a "struct timespec" that represents the absolute end time.
This is a common operation in the many select() and poll() variants and needs various,
common, sanity checks.

poll_select_copy_remaining() is a helper that takes care of copying the remaining
time to userspace, as select(), pselect() and ppoll() do. This function comes in
both a natural and a compat implementation (due to datastructure differences).

9deb27baed flag parameters: signalfd
This patch adds the new signalfd4 syscall.  It extends the old signalfd
syscall by one parameter which is meant to hold a flag value.  In this
patch the only flag support is SFD_CLOEXEC which causes the close-on-exec
flag for the returned file descriptor to be set.

A new name SFD_CLOEXEC is introduced which in this implementation must
have the same value as O_CLOEXEC.

The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and
x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed.

4ac9137858 Embed a struct path into struct nameidata instead of nd->{dentry,mnt}
This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good
reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects
that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata.

Together with the other patches of this series
- it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on
  <dentry,vfsmount> pairs
- it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a
  struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed
- it reduces the overall code size:

without patch series:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
5321639  858418  715768 6895825  6938d1 vmlinux

with patch series:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
5320026  858418  715768 6894212  693284 vmlinux

This patch:

Switch from nd->{dentry,mnt} to nd->path.{dentry,mnt} everywhere.

4267c9561d NFS: Allow text-based mounts via compat_sys_mount
The compat_sys_mount() system call throws EINVAL for text-based NFSv4
mounts.

The text-based mount interface assumes that any mount option blob that
doesn't set the version field to "1" is a C string (ie not a legacy
mount request).  The compat_sys_mount() call treats blobs that don't
set the version field to "1" as an error.  We just relax the check in
compat_sys_mount() a bit to allow C strings to be passed down to the NFSv4
client.

4d672e7ac7 timerfd: new timerfd API
This is the new timerfd API as it is implemented by the following patch:

int timerfd_create(int clockid, int flags);
int timerfd_settime(int ufd, int flags,
		    const struct itimerspec *utmr,
		    struct itimerspec *otmr);
int timerfd_gettime(int ufd, struct itimerspec *otmr);

The timerfd_create() API creates an un-programmed timerfd fd.  The "clockid"
parameter can be either CLOCK_MONOTONIC or CLOCK_REALTIME.

The timerfd_settime() API give new settings by the timerfd fd, by optionally
retrieving the previous expiration time (in case the "otmr" parameter is not
NULL).

The time value specified in "utmr" is absolute, if the TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME bit
is set in the "flags" parameter.  Otherwise it's a relative time.

The timerfd_gettime() API returns the next expiration time of the timer, or
{0, 0} if the timerfd has not been set yet.

Like the previous timerfd API implementation, read(2) and poll(2) are
supported (with the same interface).  Here's a simple test program I used to
exercise the new timerfd APIs:

We create the new mm before the binfmt code runs, and place the new stack at
the very top of the address space.  Once the binfmt code runs and figures out
where the stack should be, we move it downwards.

It is a bit peculiar in that we have one task with two mm's, one of which is
inactive.

1c710c896e utimensat implementation
Implement utimensat(2) which is an extension to futimesat(2) in that it

a) supports nano-second resolution for the timestamps
b) allows to selectively ignore the atime/mtime value
c) allows to selectively use the current time for either atime or mtime
d) supports changing the atime/mtime of a symlink itself along the lines
   of the BSD lutimes(3) functions

For this change the internally used do_utimes() functions was changed to
accept a timespec time value and an additional flags parameter.

Additionally the sys_utime function was changed to match compat_sys_utime
which already use do_utimes instead of duplicating the work.

Also, the completely missing futimensat() functionality is added.  We have
such a function in glibc but we have to resort to using /proc/self/fd/* which
not everybody likes (chroot etc).

f6dfb4fd7d [PATCH] Add epoll compat_ code to fs/compat.c
IA64 and ARM-OABI are currently using their own version of epoll compat_
code.

An architecture needs epoll_event translation if alignof(u64) in 32 bit
mode is different from alignof(u64) in 64 bit mode.  If an architecture
needs epoll_event translation, it must define struct compat_epoll_event in
asm/compat.h and set CONFIG_HAVE_COMPAT_EPOLL_EVENT and use
compat_sys_epoll_ctl and compat_sys_epoll_wait.

All 64 bit architecture should use compat_sys_epoll_pwait.

[sfr: restructure and move to fs/compat.c, remove MIPS version
of compat_sys_epoll_pwait, use __put_user_unaligned]

bbea9f6966 [PATCH] fdtable: Make fdarray and fdsets equal in size
Currently, each fdtable supports three dynamically-sized arrays of data: the
fdarray and two fdsets.  The code allows the number of fds supported by the
fdarray (fdtable->max_fds) to differ from the number of fds supported by each
of the fdsets (fdtable->max_fdset).

In practice, it is wasteful for these two sizes to differ: whenever we hit a
limit on the smaller-capacity structure, we will reallocate the entire fdtable
and all the dynamic arrays within it, so any delta in the memory used by the
larger-capacity structure will never be touched at all.

Rather than hogging this excess, we shouldn't even allocate it in the first
place, and keep the capacities of the fdarray and the fdsets equal.  This
patch removes fdtable->max_fdset.  As an added bonus, most of the supporting
code becomes simpler.

0f7fc9e4d0 [PATCH] VFS: change struct file to use struct path
This patch changes struct file to use struct path instead of having
independent pointers to struct dentry and struct vfsmount, and converts all
users of f_{dentry,vfsmnt} in fs/ to use f_path.{dentry,mnt}.

Additionally, it adds two #define's to make the transition easier for users of
the f_dentry and f_vfsmnt.
