<title>uml: Create a private mount of proc for mconsole</title>

<content type='text'>
The mconsole code only ever accesses proc for the initial pid
namespace.  Instead of depending upon the proc_mnt which is
for proc_flush_task have uml create it's own mount of proc
instead.

This allows proc_flush_task to evolve and remove the
need for having a proc_mnt to do it's job.

<title>uml: Don't consult current to find the proc_mnt in mconsole_proc</title>

Inspection of the control flow reveals that mconsole_proc is either
called from mconsole_stop called from mc_work_proc or from
mc_work_proc directly.  The function mc_work_proc is dispatched to a
kernel thread with schedule_work.

All of the threads that run dispatched by schedule_work are in the
init pid namespace.

So make the code clearer and by using init_pid_ns instead of
task_active_pid_ns(current).

The most notable change is DEFINE_SHOW_ATTRIBUTE macro split in
seq_file.h.

Conversion rule is:

	llseek		=&gt; proc_lseek
	unlocked_ioctl	=&gt; proc_ioctl

	xxx		=&gt; proc_xxx

	delete ".owner = THIS_MODULE" line

reenable_fd has been a NOP since the introduction of the EPOLL
based interrupt controller.
reenable_channel() is no longer needed as the flow control is
now handled via the write IRQs on the channel.

<title>sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to &lt;linux/sched/debug.h&gt;</title>

<content type='text'>
We are going to split &lt;linux/sched/debug.h&gt; out of &lt;linux/sched.h&gt;, which
will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files.

Create a trivial placeholder &lt;linux/sched/debug.h&gt; file that just
maps to &lt;linux/sched.h&gt; to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

  sed -i -e "s!$PATT!#include &lt;linux/uaccess.h&gt;!" \
        $(git grep -l "$PATT"|grep -v ^include/linux/uaccess.h)

to do the replacement at the end of the merge window.

<title>fs/coredump: prevent fsuid=0 dumps into user-controlled directories</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.zx2c4.com/wireguard-linux/commit/?id=378c6520e7d29280f400ef2ceaf155c86f05a71a'/>
<id>urn:sha1:378c6520e7d29280f400ef2ceaf155c86f05a71a</id>
<content type='text'>
This commit fixes the following security hole affecting systems where
all of the following conditions are fulfilled:

 - The fs.suid_dumpable sysctl is set to 2.
 - The kernel.core_pattern sysctl's value starts with "/". (Systems
   where kernel.core_pattern starts with "|/" are not affected.)
 - Unprivileged user namespace creation is permitted. (This is
   true on Linux &gt;=3.8, but some distributions disallow it by
   default using a distro patch.)

Under these conditions, if a program executes under secure exec rules,
causing it to run with the SUID_DUMP_ROOT flag, then unshares its user
namespace, changes its root directory and crashes, the coredump will be
written using fsuid=0 and a path derived from kernel.core_pattern - but
this path is interpreted relative to the root directory of the process,
allowing the attacker to control where a coredump will be written with
root privileges.

To fix the security issue, always interpret core_pattern for dumps that
are written under SUID_DUMP_ROOT relative to the root directory of init.
