2015-11-18net: dns_resolver: convert time_t to time64_tAya Mahfouz1-1/+1
Changes the definition of the pointer _expiry from time_t to time64_t. This is to handle the Y2038 problem where time_t will overflow in the year 2038. The change is safe because the kernel subsystems that call dns_query pass NULL.

2015-10-21KEYS: Merge the type-specific data with the payload dataDavid Howells1-4/+3
Merge the type-specific data with the payload data into one four-word chunk as it seems pointless to keep them separate. Use user_key_payload() for accessing the payloads of overloaded user-defined keys.

2014-07-17KEYS: Allow special keys (eg. DNS results) to be invalidated by CAP_SYS_ADMINDavid Howells1-0/+1
Special kernel keys, such as those used to hold DNS results for AFS, CIFS and NFS and those used to hold idmapper results for NFS, used to be 'invalidateable' with key_revoke(). However, since the default permissions for keys were reduced: Commit: 96b5c8fea6c0861621051290d705ec2e971963f1 KEYS: Reduce initial permissions on keys it has become impossible to do this. Add a key flag (KEY_FLAG_ROOT_CAN_INVAL) that will permit a key to be invalidated by root. This should not be used for system keyrings as the garbage collector will try and remove any invalidate key. For system keyrings, KEY_FLAG_ROOT_CAN_CLEAR can be used instead. After this, from userspace, keyctl_invalidate() and "keyctl invalidate" can be used by any possessor of CAP_SYS_ADMIN (typically root) to invalidate DNS and idmapper keys. Invalidated keys are immediately garbage collected and will be immediately rerequested if needed again. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Tested-by: Steve Dickson <steved@redhat.com>

2010-08-11DNS: If the DNS server returns an error, allow that to be cached [ver #2]Wang Lei1-0/+5
If the DNS server returns an error, allow that to be cached in the DNS resolver key in lieu of a value. Userspace passes the desired error number as an option in the payload: "#dnserror=<number>" Userspace must map h_errno from the name resolution routines to an appropriate Linux error before passing it up. Something like the following mapping is recommended: [HOST_NOT_FOUND] = ENODATA, [TRY_AGAIN] = EAGAIN, [NO_RECOVERY] = ECONNREFUSED, [NO_DATA] = ENODATA, in lieu of Linux errors specifically for representing name service errors. The filesystem must map these errors appropropriately before passing them to userspace. AFS is made to map ENODATA and EAGAIN to EDESTADDRREQ for the return to userspace; ECONNREFUSED is allowed to stand as is. The error can be seen in /proc/keys as a negative number after the description of the key. Compare, for example, the following key entries: 2f97238c I--Q-- 1 53s 3f010000 0 0 dns_resol afsdb:grand.centrall.org: -61 338bfbbe I--Q-- 1 59m 3f010000 0 0 dns_resol afsdb:grand.central.org: 37 If the error option is supplied in the payload, the main part of the payload is discarded. The key should have an expiry time set by userspace.

2010-08-05DNS: Separate out CIFS DNS Resolver codeWang Lei1-0/+159
Separate out the DNS resolver key type from the CIFS filesystem into its own module so that it can be made available for general use, including the AFS filesystem module. This facility makes it possible for the kernel to upcall to userspace to have it issue DNS requests, package up the replies and present them to the kernel in a useful form. The kernel is then able to cache the DNS replies as keys can be retained in keyrings. Resolver keys are of type "dns_resolver" and have a case-insensitive description that is of the form "[<type>:]<domain_name>". The optional <type> indicates the particular DNS lookup and packaging that's required. The <domain_name> is the query to be made. If <type> isn't given, a basic hostname to IP address lookup is made, and the result is stored in the key in the form of a printable string consisting of a comma-separated list of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. This key type is supported by userspace helpers driven from /sbin/request-key and configured through /etc/request-key.conf. The cifs.upcall utility is invoked for UNC path server name to IP address resolution. The CIFS functionality is encapsulated by the dns_resolve_unc_to_ip() function, which is used to resolve a UNC path to an IP address for CIFS filesystem. This part remains in the CIFS module for now. See the added Documentation/networking/dns_resolver.txt for more information.
