After trying to use this feature in Fedora we found the hard coding policy like this into the kernel was a bad idea. Surprise surprise. We ran into these problems because it was impossible to launch a container as a logged in user and run a login daemon inside that container. This reverts back to the old behavior before this option was added. The option will be re-added in a userspace selectable manor such that userspace can choose when it is and when it is not appropriate.

This is just a code rework. It makes things more readable. It does not make any functional changes. It does change the log messages to include both the old session id as well the new and it includes a new res field, which means we get messages even when the user did not have permission to change the loginuid.

The audit_status structure was not designed with extensibility in mind. Define a new AUDIT_SET_FEATURE message type which takes a new structure of bits where things can be enabled/disabled/locked one at a time. This structure should be able to grow in the future while maintaining forward and backward compatibility (based loosly on the ideas from capabilities and prctl) This does not actually add any features, but is just infrastructure to allow new on/off types of audit system features.

When the audit=1 kernel parameter is absent and auditd is not running, AUDIT_USER_AVC messages are being silently discarded. AUDIT_USER_AVC messages should be sent to userspace using printk(), as mentioned in the commit message of 4a4cd633 ("AUDIT: Optimise the audit-disabled case for discarding user messages"). When audit_enabled is 0, audit_receive_msg() discards all user messages except for AUDIT_USER_AVC messages. However, audit_log_common_recv_msg() refuses to allocate an audit_buffer if audit_enabled is 0. The fix is to special case AUDIT_USER_AVC messages in both functions. It looks like commit 50397bd1 ("[AUDIT] clean up audit_receive_msg()") introduced this bug.

If audit_filter_task() nacks the new thread it makes sense to clear TIF_SYSCALL_AUDIT which can be copied from parent by dup_task_struct(). A wrong TIF_SYSCALL_AUDIT is not really bad but it triggers the "slow" audit paths in entry.S to ensure the task can not miss audit_syscall_*() calls, this is pointless if the task has no ->audit_context.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) There was a simplification in the ipv6 ndisc packet sending attempted here, which avoided using memory accounting on the per-netns ndisc socket for sending NDISC packets. It did fix some important issues, but it causes regressions so it gets reverted here too. Specifically, the problem with this change is that the IPV6 output path really depends upon there being a valid skb->sk attached. The reason we want to do this change in some form when we figure out how to do it right, is that if a device goes down the ndisc_sk socket send queue will fill up and block NDISC packets that we want to send to other devices too. That's really bad behavior. Hopefully Thomas can come up with a better version of this change. 2) Fix a severe TCP performance regression by reverting a change made to dev_pick_tx() quite some time ago. From Eric Dumazet. 3) TIPC returns wrongly signed error codes, fix from Erik Hugne. 4) Fix OOPS when doing IPSEC over ipv4 tunnels due to orphaning the skb->sk too early. Fix from Li Hongjun. 5) RAW ipv4 sockets can use the wrong routing key during lookup, from Chris Clark. 6) Similar to #1 revert an older change that tried to use plain alloc_skb() for SYN/ACK TCP packets, this broke the netfilter owner mark which needs to see the skb->sk for such frames. From Phil Oester. 7) BNX2x driver bug fixes from Ariel Elior and Yuval Mintz, specifically in the handling of virtual functions. 8) IPSEC path error propagations to sockets is not done properly when we have v4 in v6, and v6 in v4 type rules. Fix from Hannes Frederic Sowa. 9) Fix missing channel context release in mac80211, from Johannes Berg. 10) Fix network namespace handing wrt. SCM_RIGHTS, from Andy Lutomirski. 11) Fix usage of bogus NAPI weight in jme, netxen, and ps3_gelic drivers. From Michal Schmidt. 12) Hopefully a complete and correct fix for the genetlink dump locking and module reference counting. From Pravin B Shelar. 13) sk_busy_loop() must do a cpu_relax(), from Eliezer Tamir. 14) Fix handling of timestamp offset when restoring a snapshotted TCP socket.

Commit dc975382 "net: fec: add napi support to improve proformance" converted the fec driver to the napi model. However, that commit forgot to remove the call to skb_defer_rx_timestamp which is only needed in non-napi drivers. (The function napi_gro_receive eventually calls netif_receive_skb, which in turn calls skb_defer_rx_timestamp.) This patch should also be applied to the 3.9 and 3.10 kernels.

While looking into MLDv1/v2 code, I noticed that bridging code does not convert it's max delay into jiffies for MLDv2 messages as we do in core IPv6' multicast code. RFC3810, 5.1.3. Maximum Response Code says: The Maximum Response Code field specifies the maximum time allowed before sending a responding Report. The actual time allowed, called the Maximum Response Delay, is represented in units of milliseconds, and is derived from the Maximum Response Code as follows: [...] As we update timers that work with jiffies, we need to convert it.

Eric Dumazet authored
commit 8728c544 ("net: dev_pick_tx() fix") and commit b6fe83e9 ("bonding: refine IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE capability") are quite incompatible : Queue selection is disabled because skb dst was dropped before entering bonding device. This causes major performance regression, mainly because TCP packets for a given flow can be sent to multiple queues. This is particularly visible when using the new FQ packet scheduler with MQ + FQ setup on the slaves. We can safely revert the first commit now that 416186fb ("net: Split core bits of netdev_pick_tx into __netdev_pick_tx") properly caps the queue_index.

Since commit 3d7b46cd (ip_tunnel: push generic protocol handling to ip_tunnel module.), an Oops is triggered when an xfrm policy is configured on an IPv4 over IPv4 tunnel. xfrm4_policy_check() calls __xfrm_policy_check2(), which uses skb_dst(skb).

Should a connect fail, if the publication/server is unavailable or due to some other error, a positive value will be returned and errno is never set. If the application code checks for an explicit zero return from connect (success) or a negative return (failure), it will not catch the error and subsequent send() calls will fail as shown from the strace snippet below. socket(0x1e /* PF_??? */, SOCK_SEQPACKET, 0) = 3 connect(3, {sa_family=0x1e /* AF_??? */, sa_data="\2\1\322\4\0\0\322\4\0\0\0\0\0\0"}, 16) = 111 sendto(3, "test", 4, 0, NULL, 0) = -1 EPIPE (Broken pipe) The reason for this behaviour is that TIPC wrongly inverts error codes set in sk_err.

Linus Lüssing authored
Currently we would still potentially suffer multicast packet loss if there is just either an IGMP or an MLD querier: For the former case, we would possibly drop IPv6 multicast packets, for the latter IPv4 ones. This is because we are currently assuming that if either an IGMP or MLD querier is present that the other one is present, too. This patch makes the behaviour and fix added in "bridge: disable snooping if there is no querier" (b00589af) to also work if there is either just an IGMP or an MLD querier on the link: It refines the deactivation of the snooping to be protocol specific by using separate timers for the snooped IGMP and MLD queries as well as separate timers for our internal IGMP and MLD queriers.

Pull cgroup fix from Tejun Heo: "During the percpu reference counting update which was merged during v3.11-rc1, the cgroup destruction path was updated so that a cgroup in the process of dying may linger on the children list, which was necessary as the cgroup should still be included in child/descendant iteration while percpu ref is being killed. Unfortunately, I forgot to update cgroup destruction path accordingly and cgroup destruction may fail spuriously with -EBUSY due to lingering dying children even when there's no live child left - e.g. "rmdir parent/child parent" will usually fail. This can be easily fixed by iterating through the children list to verify that there's no live child left. While this is very late in the release cycle, this bug is very visible to userland and I believe the fix is relatively safe.

Pull workqueue fix from Tejun Heo: "This contains one fix which could lead to system-wide lockup on !PREEMPT kernels. It's very late in the cycle but this definitely is a -stable material. The problem is that workqueue worker tasks may process unlimited number of work items back-to-back without every yielding inbetween. This usually isn't noticeable but a work item which re-queues itself waiting for someone else to do something can deadlock with stop_machine. stop_machine will ensure nothing else happens on all other cpus and the requeueing work item will reqeueue itself indefinitely without ever yielding and thus preventing the CPU from entering stop_machine.

Steffen Klassert says: ==================== This pull request fixes some issues that arise when 6in4 or 4in6 tunnels are used in combination with IPsec, all from Hannes Frederic Sowa and a null pointer dereference when queueing packets to the policy hold queue. 1) We might access the local error handler of the wrong address family if 6in4 or 4in6 tunnel is protected by ipsec. Fix this by addind a pointer to the correct local_error to xfrm_state_afinet. 2) Add a helper function to always refer to the correct interpretation of skb->sk. 3) Call skb_reset_inner_headers to record the position of the inner headers when adding a new one in various ipv6 tunnels. This is needed to identify the addresses where to send back errors in the xfrm layer. 4) Dereference inner ipv6 header if encapsulated to always call the right error handler. 5) Choose protocol family by skb protocol to not call the wrong xfrm{4,6}_local_error handler in case an ipv6 sockets is used in ipv4 mode. 6) Partly revert "xfrm: introduce helper for safe determination of mtu" because this introduced pmtu discovery problems. 7) Set skb->protocol on tcp, raw and ip6_append_data genereated skbs. We need this to get the correct mtu informations in xfrm. 8) Fix null pointer dereference in xdst_queue_output. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Allocating skbs when sending out neighbour discovery messages currently uses sock_alloc_send_skb() based on a per net namespace socket and thus share a socket wmem buffer space. If a netdevice is temporarily unable to transmit due to carrier loss or for other reasons, the queued up ndisc messages will cosnume all of the wmem space and will thus prevent from any more skbs to be allocated even for netdevices that are able to transmit packets. The number of neighbour discovery messages sent is very limited, simply use alloc_skb() and don't depend on any socket wmem space any longer.

The zero value means that tsecr is not valid, so it's a special case. tsoffset is used to customize tcp_time_stamp for one socket. tsoffset is usually zero, it's used when a socket was moved from one host to another host. Currently this issue affects logic of tcp_rcv_rtt_measure_ts. Due to incorrect value of rcv_tsecr, tcp_rcv_rtt_measure_ts sets rto to TCP_RTO_MAX.
