2013-06-12audit: wait_for_auditd() should use TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLEOleg Nesterov
audit_log_start() does wait_for_auditd() in a loop until audit_backlog_wait_time passes or audit_skb_queue has a room. If signal_pending() is true this becomes a busy-wait loop, schedule() in TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE won't block. Thanks to Guy for fully investigating and explaining the problem. (akpm: that'll cause the system to lock up on a non-preemptible uniprocessor kernel) (Guy: "Our customer was in fact running a uniprocessor machine, and they reported a system hang.")

2013-04-30audit: fix event coverage of AUDIT_ANOM_LINKEric Paris
The userspace audit tools didn't like the existing formatting of the AUDIT_ANOM_LINK event. It needed to be expanded to emit an AUDIT_PATH event as well, so this implements the change. The bulk of the patch is moving code out of auditsc.c into audit.c and audit.h for general use. It expands audit_log_name to include an optional "struct path" argument for the simple case of just needing to report a pathname. This also makes audit_log_task_info available when syscall auditing is not enabled, since it is needed in either case for process details.

2013-04-30audit: use spin_lock in audit_receive_msg to process tty loggingEric Paris

2013-04-30audit: add an option to control logging of passwords with pam_tty_auditRichard Guy Briggs
Most commands are entered one line at a time and processed as complete lines in non-canonical mode. Commands that interactively require a password, enter canonical mode to do this while shutting off echo. This pair of features (icanon and !echo) can be used to avoid logging passwords by audit while still logging the rest of the command. Adding a member (log_passwd) to the struct audit_tty_status passed in by pam_tty_audit allows control of canonical mode without echo per task.

2013-04-30audit: use spin_lock_irqsave/restore in audit tty codeEric Paris
Some of the callers of the audit tty function use spin_lock_irqsave/restore. We were using the forced always enable version, which seems really bad. Since I don't know every one of these code paths well enough, it makes sense to just switch everything to the safe version. Maybe it's a little overzealous, but it's a lot better than an unlucky deadlock when we return to a caller with irq enabled and they expect it to be disabled.

Benefits are a) less segments for driver to process b) less calls to page allocator c) less waste of space.

2012-09-18userns: Convert audit to work with user namespaces enabledEric W. Biederman
- Explicitly format uids gids in audit messges in the initial user namespace. This is safe because auditd is restrected to be in the initial user namespace. - Convert audit_sig_uid into a kuid_t. - Enable building the audit code and user namespaces at the same time. The net result is that the audit subsystem now uses kuid_t and kgid_t whenever possible making it almost impossible to confuse a raw uid_t with a kuid_t preventing bugs.

2012-06-29netlink: add netlink_kernel_cfg parameter to netlink_kernel_createPablo Neira Ayuso
This patch adds the following structure: struct netlink_kernel_cfg { unsigned int groups; void (*input)(struct sk_buff *skb); struct mutex *cb_mutex; }; That can be passed to netlink_kernel_create to set optional configurations for netlink kernel sockets. I've populated this structure by looking for NULL and zero parameters at the existing code. The remaining parameters that always need to be set are still left in the original interface. That includes optional parameters for the netlink socket creation. This allows easy extensibility of this interface in the future. This patch also adapts all callers to use this new interface.

Bad speling and horrible grammar (and copious swearing) is to be expected, but let's keep it to commit messages and comments, rather than expose it to users in config help texts or printouts.
2012-01-17audit: no leading space in audit_log_d_path prefixKees Cook
audit_log_d_path() injects an additional space before the prefix, which serves no purpose and doesn't mix well with other audit_log*() functions that do not sneak extra characters into the log. Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
2012-01-17audit: drop the meaningless and format breaking word 'user'Eric Paris
userspace audit messages look like so: type=USER msg=audit(1271170549.415:24710): user pid=14722 uid=0 auid=500 ses=1 subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:auditctl_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 msg='' That third field just says 'user'. That's useless and doesn't follow the key=value pair we are trying to enforce. We already know it came from the user based on the record type. Kill that word. Die.

2012-01-08audit: always follow va_copy() with va_end()Jesper Juhl
A call to va_copy() should always be followed by a call to va_end() in the same function. In kernel/autit.c::audit_log_vformat() this is not always done. This patch makes sure va_end() is always called.

2012-01-05security: remove the security_netlink_recv hook as it is equivalent to capable()Eric Paris
Once upon a time netlink was not sync and we had to get the effective capabilities from the skb that was being received. Today we instead get the capabilities from the current task. This has rendered the entire purpose of the hook moot as it is now functionally equivalent to the capable() call. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
2011-10-31kernel: Map most files to use export.h instead of module.hPaul Gortmaker
The changed files were only including linux/module.h for the EXPORT_SYMBOL infrastructure, and nothing else. Revector them onto the isolated export header for faster compile times. Nothing to see here but a whole lot of instances of: -#include <linux/module.h> +#include <linux/export.h> This commit is only changing the kernel dir; next targets will probably be mm, fs, the arch dirs, etc. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
