2007-11-13Revert "ext2/ext3/ext4: add block bitmap validation"Linus Torvalds3-130/+9
This reverts commit 7c9e69faa28027913ee059c285a5ea8382e24b5d, fixing up conflicts in fs/ext4/balloc.c manually. The cost of doing the bitmap validation on each lookup - even when the bitmap is cached - is absolutely prohibitive. We could, and probably should, do it only when adding the bitmap to the buffer cache. However, right now we are better off just reverting it. Peter Zijlstra measured the cost of this extra validation as a 85% decrease in cached iozone, and while I had a patch that took it down to just 17% by not being _quite_ so stupid in the validation, it was still a big slowdown that could have been avoided by just doing it right.

2007-11-12nfsd4: recheck for secure ports in fh_verifyJ. Bruce Fields1-17/+26
As with commit 7fc90ec93a5eb71f4b08403baf5ba7176b3ec6b1 ("knfsd: nfsd: call nfsd_setuser() on fh_compose(), fix nfsd4 permissions problem") this is a case where we need to redo a security check in fh_verify() even though the filehandle already has an associated dentry--if the filehandle was created by fh_compose() in an earlier operation of the nfsv4 compound, then we may not have done these checks yet. Without this fix it is possible, for example, to traverse from an export without the secure ports requirement to one with it in a single compound, and bypass the secure port check on the new export. While we're here, fix up some minor style problems and change a printk() to a dprintk(), to make it harder for random unprivileged users to spam the logs. Signed-off-by: J.

2007-11-12knfsd: fix spurious EINVAL errors on first access of new filesystemJ. Bruce Fields2-2/+2

This is particularly unfortunate in the case of an nfserr_dropit return, which is an internal error meant to indicate to callers that this request has been deferred and should just be dropped pending the results of an upcall to mountd.

2007-11-12core dump: remain dumpableRoland McGrath1-2/+4
The coredump code always calls set_dumpable(0) when it starts (even if RLIMIT_CORE prevents any core from being dumped). The effect of this (via task_dumpable) is to make /proc/pid/* files owned by root instead of the user, so the user can no longer examine his own process--in a case where there was never any privileged data to protect. This affects e.g. auxv, environ, fd; in Fedora (execshield) kernels, also maps. In practice, you can only notice this when a debugger has requested PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT tracing. set_dumpable was only used in do_coredump for synchronization and not intended for any security purpose. (It doesn't secure anything that wasn't already unsecured when a process dies by SIGTERM instead of SIGQUIT.) This changes do_coredump to check the core_waiters count as the means of synchronization, which is sufficient. Now we leave the "dumpable" bits alone.

2007-11-09[CIFS] fix oops on second mount to same server when null auth is usedJeff Layton2-1/+2
When a share is mounted using no username, cifs_mount sets volume_info.username as a NULL pointer, and the sesInfo userName as an empty string. The volume_info.username is passed to a couple of other functions to see if there is an existing unc or tcp connection that can be used. These functions assume that the username will be a valid string that can be passed to strncmp. If the pointer is NULL, then the kernel will oops if there's an existing session to which the string can be compared. This patch changes cifs_mount to set volume_info.username to an empty string in this situation, which prevents the oops and should make it so that the comparison to other null auth sessions match.

2007-11-08[CIFS] Fix stale mode after readdir when cifsacl specifiedSteve French1-1/+7
When mounted with cifsacl mount option, readdir can not instantiate the inode with the estimated mode based on the ACL for each file since we have not queried for the ACL for each of these files yet. So set the refresh time to zero for these inodes so that the next stat will cause the client to go to the server for the ACL info so we can build the estimated mode (this means we also will issue an extra QueryPathInfo if the stat happens within 1 second, but this is trivial compared to the time required to open/getacl/close for each). ls -l is slower when cifsacl mount option is specified, but displays correct mode information.

2007-11-08[CIFS] Fix incorrect mode when ACL had deny access control entriesSteve French1-9/+46
When mounted with the cifsacl mount option, we were treating any deny ACEs found like allow ACEs and it turns out for SFU and SUA Windows set these type of access control entries often. The order of ACEs is important too. The canonical order that most ACL tools and Windows explorer consruct ACLs with is to begin with DENY entries then follow with ALLOW, otherwise an allow entry could be encountered first, making the subsequent deny entry like "dead code which would be superflous since Windows stops when a match is made for the operation you are trying to perform for your user We start with no permissions in the mode and build up as we find permissions (ie allow ACEs). This fixes deny ACEs so they affect the mask used to set the subsequent allow ACEs.

2007-11-06ocfs2: Re-order iput in ocfs2_drop_dentry_lockMark Fasheh1-1/+1
Do this to avoid a theoretical (I haven't seen this in practice) race where the downconvert thread might drop the dentry lock, allowing a remote unlink to proceed before dropping the inode locks. This could bounce access to the orphan dir between nodes.

2007-11-06ocfs2: Create locks at initially requested levelMark Fasheh1-14/+9
If we have not yet created a cluster lock, ocfs2_cluster_lock() will first create it at NLMODE, and then convert the lock to either PRMODE or EXMODE (whichever is requested). Change ocfs2_cluster_lock() to just create the lock at the initially requested level. ocfs2_locking_ast() handles this case fine, so the only update required was in setup of locking state. This should reduce the number of network messages required for a new lock by one, providing an incremental performance enhancement. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
