Back in 2007 I made what turned out to be a rather serious
mistake in the implementation of the Smack security module.
The SELinux module used an interface in /proc to manipulate
the security context on processes. Rather than use a similar
interface, I used the same interface. The AppArmor team did
likewise. Now /proc/.../attr/current will tell you the
security "context" of the process, but it will be different
depending on the security module you're using.
This patch provides a subdirectory in /proc/.../attr for
Smack. Smack user space can use the "current" file in
this subdirectory and never have to worry about getting
SELinux attributes by mistake. Programs that use the
old interface will continue to work (or fail, as the case
may be) as before.
The proposed S.A.R.A security module is dependent on
the mechanism to create its own attr subdirectory.
The original implementation is by Kees Cook.

Add support for the Adiantum encryption mode to fscrypt. Adiantum is a
tweakable, length-preserving encryption mode with security provably
reducible to that of XChaCha12 and AES-256, subject to a security bound.
It's also a true wide-block mode, unlike XTS. See the paper
"Adiantum: length-preserving encryption for entry-level processors"
(https://eprint.iacr.org/2018/720.pdf) for more details. Also see
commit 059c2a4d8e16 ("crypto: adiantum - add Adiantum support").
On sufficiently long messages, Adiantum's bottlenecks are XChaCha12 and
the NH hash function. These algorithms are fast even on processors
without dedicated crypto instructions. Adiantum makes it feasible to
enable storage encryption on low-end mobile devices that lack AES
instructions; currently such devices are unencrypted. On ARM Cortex-A7,
on 4096-byte messages Adiantum encryption is about 4 times faster than
AES-256-XTS encryption; decryption is about 5 times faster.
In fscrypt, Adiantum is suitable for encrypting both file contents and
names. With filenames, it fixes a known weakness: when two filenames in
a directory share a common prefix of >= 16 bytes, with CTS-CBC their
encrypted filenames share a common prefix too, leaking information.
Adiantum does not have this problem.
Since Adiantum also accepts long tweaks (IVs), it's also safe to use the
master key directly for Adiantum encryption rather than deriving
per-file keys, provided that the per-file nonce is included in the IVs
and the master key isn't used for any other encryption mode. This
configuration saves memory and improves performance. A new fscrypt
policy flag is added to allow users to opt-in to this configuration.

get_arg_page() checks bprm->rlim_stack.rlim_cur and re-calculates the
"extra" size for argv/envp pointers every time, this is a bit ugly and
even not strictly correct: acct_arg_size() must not account this size.
Remove all the rlimit code in get_arg_page(). Instead, add bprm->argmin
calculated once at the start of __do_execve_file() and change
copy_strings to check bprm->p >= bprm->argmin.
The patch adds the new helper, prepare_arg_pages() which initializes
bprm->argc/envc and bprm->argmin.

load_script() simply truncates bprm->buf and this is very wrong if the
length of shebang string exceeds BINPRM_BUF_SIZE-2. This can silently
truncate i_arg or (worse) we can execute the wrong binary if buf[2:126]
happens to be the valid executable path.
Change load_script() to return ENOEXEC if it can't find '\n' or zero in
bprm->buf. Note that '\0' can come from either
prepare_binprm()->memset() or from kernel_read(), we do not care.

MAX_FAT is useless in msdos_fs.h, since it uses the MSDOS_SB function
that is defined in fat.h. So really, this macro can be only called from
code that already includes fat.h.
Hence, this patch moves it to fat.h, right after MSDOS_SB is defined. I
also changed it to an inline function in order to save the double call
to MSDOS_SB. This was suggested by joe@perches.com in the previous
version.
This patch is required for the next in the series, in which the variant
(whether this is FAT12, FAT16 or FAT32) checks are replaced with new
macros.

The comment edited in this patch was the only reference to the
FAT_FIRST_ENT macro, which is not used anymore. Moreover, the commented
line of code does not compile with the current code.
Since the FAT_FIRST_ENT macro checks the FAT variant in a way that the
patch series changes, I removed it, and instead wrote a clear
explanation of what was checked.
I verified that the changed comment is correct according to Microsoft
FAT spec, search for "BPB_Media" in the following references:

Commit 092a53452bb7 ("autofs: take more care to not update last_used on
path walk") helped to (partially) resolve a problem where automounts
were not expiring due to aggressive accesses from user space.
This patch was later reverted because, for very large environments, it
meant more mount requests from clients and when there are a lot of
clients this caused a fairly significant increase in server load.
But there is a need for both types of expire check, depending on use
case, so add a mount option to allow for strict update of last use of
autofs dentrys (which just means not updating the last use on path walk
access).

Al Viro made some suggestions to improve the implementation of commit
0633da48f0 ("fix autofs_sbi() does not check super block type").
The check is unnecessary in all cases except for ioctl usage so placing
the check in the super block accessor function adds a small overhead to
the common case where it isn't needed.
So it's sufficient to do this in the ioctl code only.
Also the check in the ioctl code is needlessly complex.

This patch aims at reducing ep wq.lock hold times in epoll_wait(2). For
the blocking case, there is no need to constantly take and drop the
spinlock, which is only needed to manipulate the waitqueue.
The call to ep_events_available() is now lockless, and only exposed to
benign races. Here, if false positive (returns available events and
does not see another thread deleting an epi from the list) we call into
send_events and then the list's state is correctly seen. Otoh, if a
false negative and we don't see a list_add_tail(), for example, from irq
callback, then it is rechecked again before blocking, which will see the
correct state.
In order for more accuracy to see concurrent list_del_init(), use the
list_empty_careful() variant -- of course, this won't be safe against
insertions from wakeup.
For the overflow list we obviously need to prevent load/store tearing as
we don't want to see partial values while the ready list is disabled.

The ep->ovflist is a secondary ready-list to temporarily store events
that might occur when doing sproc without holding the ep->wq.lock. This
accounts for every time we check for ready events and also send events
back to userspace; both callbacks, particularly the latter because of
copy_to_user, can account for a non-trivial time.
As such, the unlikely() check to see if the pointer is being used, seems
both misleading and sub-optimal. In fact, we go to an awful lot of
trouble to sync both lists, and populating the ovflist is far from an
uncommon scenario.
For example, profiling a concurrent epoll_wait(2) benchmark, with
CONFIG_PROFILE_ANNOTATED_BRANCHES shows that for a two threads a 33%
incorrect rate was seen; and when incrementally increasing the number of
epoll instances (which is used, for example for multiple queuing load
balancing models), up to a 90% incorrect rate was seen.
Similarly, by deleting the prediction, 3% throughput boost was seen
across incremental threads.

The current logic is a bit convoluted. Lets simplify this with a
standard list_for_each_entry_safe() loop instead and just break out
after maxevents is reached.
While at it, remove an unnecessary indentation level in the loop when
there are in fact ready events.

Patch series "epoll: some miscellaneous optimizations".
The following are some incremental optimizations on some of the epoll
core. Each patch has the details, but together, the series is seen to
shave off measurable cycles on a number of systems and workloads.
For example, on a 40-core IB, a pipetest as well as parallel
epoll_wait() benchmark show around a 20-30% increase in raw operations
per second when the box is fully occupied (incremental thread counts),
and up to 15% performance improvement with lower counts.
Passes ltp epoll related testcases.
This patch(of 6):
All callers pass the EP_MAX_NESTS constant already, so lets simplify
this a tad and get rid of the redundant parameter for nested eventpolls.

Access to timerslack_ns is controlled by a process having CAP_SYS_NICE
in its effective capability set, but the current check looks in the root
namespace instead of the process' user namespace. Since a process is
allowed to do other activities controlled by CAP_SYS_NICE inside a
namespace, it should also be able to adjust timerslack_ns.

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.
It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access. But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.
A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model. And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.
This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.
There were a couple of notable cases:
- csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.
- the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
really used it)
- microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout
but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.
I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something. Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

After moving all requests from
fl->fl_blocked_requests
to
new->fl_blocked_requests
it is nonsensical to do anything to all the remaining elements, there
aren't any. This should do something to all the requests that have been
moved. For simplicity, it does it to all requests in the target list.
Setting "f->fl_blocker = new" to all members of new->fl_blocked_requests
is "obviously correct" as it preserves the invariant of the linkage
among requests.

This mostly reverts commit 849a370016a5 ("block: avoid ordered task
state change for polled IO"). It was wrongly claiming that the ordering
wasn't necessary. The memory barrier _is_ necessary.
If something is truly polling and not going to sleep, it's the whole
state setting that is unnecessary, not the memory barrier. Whenever you
set your state to a sleeping state, you absolutely need the memory
barrier.
Note that sometimes the memory barrier can be elsewhere. For example,
the ordering might be provided by an external lock, or by setting the
process state to sleeping before adding yourself to the wait queue list
that is used for waking up (where the wait queue lock itself will
guarantee that any wakeup will correctly see the sleeping state).
But none of those cases were true here.
NOTE! Some of the polling paths may indeed be able to drop the state
setting entirely, at which point the memory barrier also goes away.
(Also note that this doesn't revert the TASK_RUNNING cases: there is no
race between a wakeup and setting the process state to TASK_RUNNING,
since the end result doesn't depend on ordering).

Multipathing: In case of NFSv3, rpc_clnt_test_and_add_xprt() adds
the xprt to xprt switch (i.e. xps) if rpc_call_null_helper() returns
success. But in case of NFSv4.1, it needs to do EXCHANGEID to verify
the path along with check for session trunking.
Add the xprt in nfs4_test_session_trunk() only when
nfs4_detect_session_trunking() returns success. Also release refcount
hold by rpc_clnt_setup_test_and_add_xprt().

Original commit (e4648aa4f98a "NFS recover from destination server

to copy hanging.
