Add a new security hook definition for the sys_ioprio_get operation. At
present, the SELinux hook function implementation for this hook is
identical to the getscheduler implementation but a separate hook is
introduced to allow this check to be specialized in the future if
necessary.
This patch also creates a helper function get_task_ioprio which handles the
access check in addition to retrieving the ioprio value for the task.

The remaining counters in page_state after the zoned VM counter patches
have been applied are all just for show in /proc/vmstat. They have no
essential function for the VM.
We use a simple increment of per cpu variables. In order to avoid the most
severe races we disable preempt. Preempt does not prevent the race between
an increment and an interrupt handler incrementing the same statistics
counter. However, that race is exceedingly rare, we may only loose one
increment or so and there is no requirement (at least not in kernel) that
the vm event counters have to be accurate.
In the non preempt case this results in a simple increment for each
counter. For many architectures this will be reduced by the compiler to a
single instruction. This single instruction is atomic for i386 and x86_64.
And therefore even the rare race condition in an interrupt is avoided for
both architectures in most cases.
The patchset also adds an off switch for embedded systems that allows a
building of linux kernels without these counters.
The implementation of these counters is through inline code that hopefully
results in only a single instruction increment instruction being emitted
(i386, x86_64) or in the increment being hidden though instruction
concurrency (EPIC architectures such as ia64 can get that done).
Benefits:
- VM event counter operations usually reduce to a single inline instruction
on i386 and x86_64.
- No interrupt disable, only preempt disable for the preempt case.
Preempt disable can also be avoided by moving the counter into a spinlock.
- Handling is similar to zoned VM counters.
- Simple and easily extendable.
- Can be omitted to reduce memory use for embedded use.

Conversion of nr_bounce to a per zone counter
nr_bounce is only used for proc output. So it could be left as an event
counter. However, the event counters may not be accurate and nr_bounce is
categorizing types of pages in a zone. So we really need this to also be a
per zone counter.

Conversion of nr_unstable to a per zone counter
We need to do some special modifications to the nfs code since there are

This converts the last critical page state of the VM and therefore we need to
remove several functions that were depending on GET_PAGE_STATE_LAST in order
to make the kernel compile again. We are only left with event type counters
in page state.

The current NR_FILE_MAPPED is used by zone reclaim and the dirty load
calculation as the number of mapped pagecache pages. However, that is not
true. NR_FILE_MAPPED includes the mapped anonymous pages. This patch
separates those and therefore allows an accurate tracking of the anonymous
pages per zone.
It then becomes possible to determine the number of unmapped pages per zone
and we can avoid scanning for unmapped pages if there are none.
Also it may now be possible to determine the mapped/unmapped ratio in
get_dirty_limit. Isnt the number of anonymous pages irrelevant in that
calculation?
Note that this will change the meaning of the number of mapped pages reported
in /proc/vmstat /proc/meminfo and in the per node statistics. This may affect
user space tools that monitor these counters! NR_FILE_MAPPED works like
NR_FILE_DIRTY. It is only valid for pagecache pages.

Currently a single atomic variable is used to establish the size of the page
cache in the whole machine. The zoned VM counters have the same method of
implementation as the nr_pagecache code but also allow the determination of
the pagecache size per zone.
Remove the special implementation for nr_pagecache and make it a zoned counter
named NR_FILE_PAGES.
Updates of the page cache counters are always performed with interrupts off.
We can therefore use the __ variant here.

nr_mapped is important because it allows a determination of how many pages of
a zone are not mapped, which would allow a more efficient means of determining
when we need to reclaim memory in a zone.
We take the nr_mapped field out of the page state structure and define a new
per zone counter named NR_FILE_MAPPED (the anonymous pages will be split off
from NR_MAPPED in the next patch).
We replace the use of nr_mapped in various kernel locations. This avoids the
looping over all processors in try_to_free_pages(), writeback, reclaim (swap +
zone reclaim).

Move the i386 VDSO down into a vma and thus randomize it.
Besides the security implications, this feature also helps debuggers, which
can COW a vma-backed VDSO just like a normal DSO and can thus do
single-stepping and other debugging features.
It's good for hypervisors (Xen, VMWare) too, which typically live in the same
high-mapped address space as the VDSO, hence whenever the VDSO is used, they
get lots of guest pagefaults and have to fix such guest accesses up - which
slows things down instead of speeding things up (the primary purpose of the
VDSO).
There's a new CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO (default=y) option, which provides support
for older glibcs that still rely on a prelinked high-mapped VDSO. Newer
distributions (using glibc 2.3.3 or later) can turn this option off. Turning
it off is also recommended for security reasons: attackers cannot use the
predictable high-mapped VDSO page as syscall trampoline anymore.
There is a new vdso=[0|1] boot option as well, and a runtime
/proc/sys/vm/vdso_enabled sysctl switch, that allows the VDSO to be turned
on/off.
(This version of the VDSO-randomization patch also has working ELF
coredumping, the previous patch crashed in the coredumping code.)
This code is a combined work of the exec-shield VDSO randomization
code and Gerd Hoffmann's hypervisor-centric VDSO patch. Rusty Russell
started this patch and i completed it.

This patch optimizes zap_threads() for the case when there are no ->mm
users except the current's thread group. In that case we can avoid
'for_each_process()' loop.
It also adds a useful invariant: SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT (if checked under
->siglock) always implies that all threads (except may be current) have
pending SIGKILL.

This patch removes tasklist_lock from zap_threads().
This is safe wrt:
do_exit:
The caller holds mm->mmap_sem. This means that task which
shares the same ->mm can't pass exit_mm(), so it can't be
unhashed from init_task.tasks or ->thread_group lists.
fork:
None of sub-threads can fork after zap_process(leader). All
processes which were created before this point should be
visible to zap_threads() because copy_process() adds the new
process to the tail of init_task.tasks list, and ->siglock
lock/unlock provides a memory barrier.
de_thread:
It does list_replace_rcu(&leader->tasks, ¤t->tasks).
So zap_threads() will see either old or new leader, it does
not matter. However, it can change p->sighand, so we should
use lock_task_sighand() in zap_process().

With this patch zap_process() sets SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT while sending SIGKILL to

1. Will be awakened by signal_wake_up(1)
2. Can't sleep again via ptrace_notify()
3. Can't go to do_signal_stop() after return
from ptrace_stop() in get_signal_to_deliver()
So we can remove all ptrace related stuff from coredump path.

zap_threads() iterates over all threads to find those ones which share
current->mm. All threads in the thread group share the same ->mm, so we can

zap_process() function. This looks as unnecessary complication, but it is

Below is a patch to add a new /proc/self/attr/sockcreate A process may write a
context into this interface and all subsequent sockets created will be labeled
with that context. This is the same idea as the fscreate interface where a
process can specify the label of a file about to be created. At this time one
envisioned user of this will be xinetd. It will be able to better label
sockets for the actual services. At this time all sockets take the label of
the creating process, so all xinitd sockets would just be labeled the same.
I tested this by creating a tcp sender and listener. The sender was able to
write to this new proc file and then create sockets with the specified label.
I am able to be sure the new label was used since the avc denial messages
kicked out by the kernel included both the new security permission
setsockcreate and all the socket denials were for the new label, not the label
of the running process.

for (; pos && pid_alive(pos); pos = next_thread(pos)) {

In process of getting proc_fd_access_allowed to work it has developed a few
warts. In particular the special case that always allows introspection and
the special case to allow inspection of kernel threads.
The special case for introspection is needed for /proc/self/mem.
The special case for kernel threads really should be overridable
by security modules.
So consolidate these checks into ptrace.c:may_attach().
The check to always allow introspection is trivial.
The check to allow access to kernel threads, and zombies is a little
trickier. mem_read and mem_write already verify an mm exists so it isn't
needed twice. proc_fd_access_allowed only doesn't want a check to verify
task->mm exits, s it prevents all access to kernel threads. So just move
the task->mm check into ptrace_attach where it is needed for practical
reasons.
I did a quick audit and none of the security modules in the kernel seem to
care if they are passed a task without an mm into security_ptrace. So the
above move should be safe and it allows security modules to come up with
more restrictive policy.

Since 2.2 we have been doing a chroot check to see if it is appropriate to
return a read or follow one of these magic symlinks. The chroot check was
asking a question about the visibility of files to the calling process and
it was actually checking the destination process, and not the files
themselves. That test was clearly bogus.
In my first pass through I simply fixed the test to check the visibility of
the files themselves. That naive approach to fixing the permissions was
too strict and resulted in cases where a task could not even see all of
it's file descriptors.
What has disturbed me about relaxing this check is that file descriptors
are per-process private things, and they are occasionaly used a user space
capability tokens. Looking a little farther into the symlink path on /proc
I did find userid checks and a check for capability (CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE) so
there were permissions checking this.
But I was still concerned about privacy. Besides /proc there is only one
other way to find out this kind of information, and that is ptrace. ptrace
has been around for a long time and it has a well established security
model.
So after thinking about it I finally realized that the permission checks
that make sense are the permission checks applied to ptrace_attach. The
checks are simple per process, and won't cause nasty surprises for people
coming from less capable unices.
Unfortunately there is one case that the current ptrace_attach test does
not cover: Zombies and kernel threads. Single stepping those kinds of
processes is impossible. Being able to see which file descriptors are open
on these tasks is important to lsof, fuser and friends. So for these
special processes I made the rule you can't find out unless you have
CAP_SYS_PTRACE.
These proc permission checks should now conform to the principle of least
surprise. As well as using much less code to implement :)

The code doesn't need to sleep to when making this check so I can just do the
comparison and not worry about the reference counts.
TODO: While looking at this I realized that my original cleanup did not push
the permission check far enough down into the stack. The call of
proc_check_dentry_visible needs to move out of the generic proc
readlink/follow link code and into the individual get_link instances.
Otherwise the shared resources checks are not quite correct (shared
files_struct does not require a shared fs_struct), and there are races with
unshare.
