Returns -ENOTSUPP when attempting to use filename encryption with something other than a password authentication token, such as a private token from openssl. Using filename encryption with a userspace eCryptfs key module is a future goal. Until then, this patch handles the situation a little better than simply using a BUG_ON().

If the lower inode is read-only, don't attempt to open the lower file read/write and don't hand off the open request to the privileged eCryptfs kthread for opening it read/write. Instead, only try an unprivileged, read-only open of the file and give up if that fails. This patch fixes an oops when eCryptfs is mounted on top of a read-only mount.

Returns an error when an unrecognized cipher code is present in a tag 3 packet or an ecryptfs_crypt_stat cannot be initialized. Also sets an crypt_stat->tfm error pointer to NULL to ensure that it will not be incorrectly freed in ecryptfs_destroy_crypt_stat().

So, I compiled a 2.6.31-rc5 kernel with ecryptfs and loaded its module. When it came time to mount my filesystem, I got this in dmesg, and it refused to mount: [93577.776637] Unable to allocate crypto cipher with name [aes]; rc = [-2] [93577.783280] Error attempting to initialize key TFM cipher with name = [aes]; rc = [-2] [93577.791183] Error attempting to initialize cipher with name = [aes] and key size = [32]; rc = [-2] [93577.800113] Error parsing options; rc = [-22] I figured from the error message that I'd either forgotten to load "aes" or that my key size was bogus. Neither one of those was the case. In fact, I was missing the CRYPTO_ECB config option and the 'ecb' module. Unfortunately, there's no trace of 'ecb' in that error message. I've done two things to fix this. First, I've modified ecryptfs's Kconfig entry to select CRYPTO_ECB and CRYPTO_CBC. I also took CRYPTO out of the dependencies since the 'select' will take care of it for us. I've also modified the error messages to print a string that should contain both 'ecb' and 'aes' in my error case. That will give any future users a chance of finding the right modules and Kconfig options. I also wonder if we should: select CRYPTO_AES if !EMBEDDED since I think most ecryptfs users are using AES like me.

Lockdep reports the following valid-looking possible AB-BA deadlock with global_auth_tok_list_mutex and keysig_list_mutex: ecryptfs_new_file_context() -> ecryptfs_copy_mount_wide_sigs_to_inode_sigs() -> mutex_lock(&mount_crypt_stat->global_auth_tok_list_mutex); -> ecryptfs_add_keysig() -> mutex_lock(&crypt_stat->keysig_list_mutex); vs ecryptfs_generate_key_packet_set() -> mutex_lock(&crypt_stat->keysig_list_mutex); -> ecryptfs_find_global_auth_tok_for_sig() -> mutex_lock(&mount_crypt_stat->global_auth_tok_list_mutex); ie the two mutexes are taken in opposite orders in the two different code paths. I'm not sure if this is a real bug where two threads could actually hit the two paths in parallel and deadlock, but it at least makes lockdep impossible to use with ecryptfs since this report triggers every time and disables future lockdep reporting. Since ecryptfs_add_keysig() is called only from the single callsite in ecryptfs_copy_mount_wide_sigs_to_inode_sigs(), the simplest fix seems to be to move the lock of keysig_list_mutex back up outside of the where global_auth_tok_list_mutex is taken. This patch does that, and fixes the lockdep report on my system (and ecryptfs still works OK). The full output of lockdep fixed by this patch is: ======================================================= [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 2.6.31-2-generic #14~rbd2 ------------------------------------------------------- gdm/2640 is trying to acquire lock: (&mount_crypt_stat->global_auth_tok_list_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8121591e>] ecryptfs_find_global_auth_tok_for_sig+0x2e/0x90 but task is already holding lock: (&crypt_stat->keysig_list_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81217728>] ecryptfs_generate_key_packet_set+0x58/0x2b0 which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 (&crypt_stat->keysig_list_mutex){+.+.+.}: [<ffffffff8108c897>] check_prev_add+0x2a7/0x370 [<ffffffff8108cfc1>] validate_chain+0x661/0x750 [<ffffffff8108d2e7>] __lock_acquire+0x237/0x430 [<ffffffff8108d585>] lock_acquire+0xa5/0x150 [<ffffffff815526cd>] __mutex_lock_common+0x4d/0x3d0 [<ffffffff81552b56>] mutex_lock_nested+0x46/0x60 [<ffffffff8121526a>] ecryptfs_add_keysig+0x5a/0xb0 [<ffffffff81213299>] ecryptfs_copy_mount_wide_sigs_to_inode_sigs+0x59/0xb0 [<ffffffff81214b06>] ecryptfs_new_file_context+0xa6/0x1a0 [<ffffffff8120e42a>] ecryptfs_initialize_file+0x4a/0x140 [<ffffffff8120e54d>] ecryptfs_create+0x2d/0x60 [<ffffffff8113a7d4>] vfs_create+0xb4/0xe0 [<ffffffff8113a8c4>] __open_namei_create+0xc4/0x110 [<ffffffff8113d1c1>] do_filp_open+0xa01/0xae0 [<ffffffff8112d8d9>] do_sys_open+0x69/0x140 [<ffffffff8112d9f0>] sys_open+0x20/0x30 [<ffffffff81013132>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b [<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff -> #0 (&mount_crypt_stat->global_auth_tok_list_mutex){+.+.+.}: [<ffffffff8108c675>] check_prev_add+0x85/0x370 [<ffffffff8108cfc1>] validate_chain+0x661/0x750 [<ffffffff8108d2e7>] __lock_acquire+0x237/0x430 [<ffffffff8108d585>] lock_acquire+0xa5/0x150 [<ffffffff815526cd>] __mutex_lock_common+0x4d/0x3d0 [<ffffffff81552b56>] mutex_lock_nested+0x46/0x60 [<ffffffff8121591e>] ecryptfs_find_global_auth_tok_for_sig+0x2e/0x90 [<ffffffff812177d5>] ecryptfs_generate_key_packet_set+0x105/0x2b0 [<ffffffff81212f49>] ecryptfs_write_headers_virt+0xc9/0x120 [<ffffffff8121306d>] ecryptfs_write_metadata+0xcd/0x200 [<ffffffff8120e44b>] ecryptfs_initialize_file+0x6b/0x140 [<ffffffff8120e54d>] ecryptfs_create+0x2d/0x60 [<ffffffff8113a7d4>] vfs_create+0xb4/0xe0 [<ffffffff8113a8c4>] __open_namei_create+0xc4/0x110 [<ffffffff8113d1c1>] do_filp_open+0xa01/0xae0 [<ffffffff8112d8d9>] do_sys_open+0x69/0x140 [<ffffffff8112d9f0>] sys_open+0x20/0x30 [<ffffffff81013132>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b [<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff other info that might help us debug this: 2 locks held by gdm/2640: #0: (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#11){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8113cb8b>] do_filp_open+0x3cb/0xae0 #1: (&crypt_stat->keysig_list_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81217728>] ecryptfs_generate_key_packet_set+0x58/0x2b0 stack backtrace: Pid: 2640, comm: gdm Tainted: G C 2.6.31-2-generic #14~rbd2 Call Trace: [<ffffffff8108b988>] print_circular_bug_tail+0xa8/0xf0 [<ffffffff8108c675>] check_prev_add+0x85/0x370 [<ffffffff81094912>] ? __module_text_address+0x12/0x60 [<ffffffff8108cfc1>] validate_chain+0x661/0x750 [<ffffffff81017275>] ? print_context_stack+0x85/0x140 [<ffffffff81089c68>] ? find_usage_backwards+0x38/0x160 [<ffffffff8108d2e7>] __lock_acquire+0x237/0x430 [<ffffffff8108d585>] lock_acquire+0xa5/0x150 [<ffffffff8121591e>] ? ecryptfs_find_global_auth_tok_for_sig+0x2e/0x90 [<ffffffff8108b0b0>] ? check_usage_backwards+0x0/0xb0 [<ffffffff815526cd>] __mutex_lock_common+0x4d/0x3d0 [<ffffffff8121591e>] ? ecryptfs_find_global_auth_tok_for_sig+0x2e/0x90 [<ffffffff8121591e>] ? ecryptfs_find_global_auth_tok_for_sig+0x2e/0x90 [<ffffffff8108c02c>] ? mark_held_locks+0x6c/0xa0 [<ffffffff81125b0d>] ? kmem_cache_alloc+0xfd/0x1a0 [<ffffffff8108c34d>] ? trace_hardirqs_on_caller+0x14d/0x190 [<ffffffff81552b56>] mutex_lock_nested+0x46/0x60 [<ffffffff8121591e>] ecryptfs_find_global_auth_tok_for_sig+0x2e/0x90 [<ffffffff812177d5>] ecryptfs_generate_key_packet_set+0x105/0x2b0 [<ffffffff81212f49>] ecryptfs_write_headers_virt+0xc9/0x120 [<ffffffff8121306d>] ecryptfs_write_metadata+0xcd/0x200 [<ffffffff81210240>] ? ecryptfs_init_persistent_file+0x60/0xe0 [<ffffffff8120e44b>] ecryptfs_initialize_file+0x6b/0x140 [<ffffffff8120e54d>] ecryptfs_create+0x2d/0x60 [<ffffffff8113a7d4>] vfs_create+0xb4/0xe0 [<ffffffff8113a8c4>] __open_namei_create+0xc4/0x110 [<ffffffff8113d1c1>] do_filp_open+0xa01/0xae0 [<ffffffff8129a93e>] ? _raw_spin_unlock+0x5e/0xb0 [<ffffffff8155410b>] ? _spin_unlock+0x2b/0x40 [<ffffffff81139e9b>] ? getname+0x3b/0x240 [<ffffffff81148a5a>] ? alloc_fd+0xfa/0x140 [<ffffffff8112d8d9>] do_sys_open+0x69/0x140 [<ffffffff81553b8f>] ? trace_hardirqs_on_thunk+0x3a/0x3f [<ffffffff8112d9f0>] sys_open+0x20/0x30 [<ffffffff81013132>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

In ecryptfs_destroy_inode(), inode_info->lower_file_mutex is locked, and just after the mutex is unlocked, the code does: kmem_cache_free(ecryptfs_inode_info_cache, inode_info); This means that if another context could possibly try to take the same mutex as ecryptfs_destroy_inode(), then it could end up getting the mutex just before the data structure containing the mutex is freed. So any such use would be an obvious use-after-free bug (catchable with slab poisoning or mutex debugging), and therefore the locking in ecryptfs_destroy_inode() is not needed and can be dropped. Similarly, in ecryptfs_destroy_crypt_stat(), crypt_stat->keysig_list_mutex is locked, and then the mutex is unlocked just before the code does: memset(crypt_stat, 0, sizeof(struct ecryptfs_crypt_stat)); Therefore taking this mutex is similarly not necessary. Removing this locking fixes false-positive lockdep reports such as the following (and they are false-positives for exactly the same reason that the locking is not needed): ================================= [ INFO: inconsistent lock state ] 2.6.31-2-generic #14~rbd3 --------------------------------- inconsistent {RECLAIM_FS-ON-W} -> {IN-RECLAIM_FS-W} usage. kswapd0/323 [HC0[0]:SC0[0]:HE1:SE1] takes: (&inode_info->lower_file_mutex){+.+.?.}, at: [<ffffffff81210d34>] ecryptfs_destroy_inode+0x34/0x100 {RECLAIM_FS-ON-W} state was registered at: [<ffffffff8108c02c>] mark_held_locks+0x6c/0xa0 [<ffffffff8108c10f>] lockdep_trace_alloc+0xaf/0xe0 [<ffffffff81125a51>] kmem_cache_alloc+0x41/0x1a0 [<ffffffff8113117a>] get_empty_filp+0x7a/0x1a0 [<ffffffff8112dd46>] dentry_open+0x36/0xc0 [<ffffffff8121a36c>] ecryptfs_privileged_open+0x5c/0x2e0 [<ffffffff81210283>] ecryptfs_init_persistent_file+0xa3/0xe0 [<ffffffff8120e838>] ecryptfs_lookup_and_interpose_lower+0x278/0x380 [<ffffffff8120f97a>] ecryptfs_lookup+0x12a/0x250 [<ffffffff8113930a>] real_lookup+0xea/0x160 [<ffffffff8113afc8>] do_lookup+0xb8/0xf0 [<ffffffff8113b518>] __link_path_walk+0x518/0x870 [<ffffffff8113bd9c>] path_walk+0x5c/0xc0 [<ffffffff8113be5b>] do_path_lookup+0x5b/0xa0 [<ffffffff8113bfe7>] user_path_at+0x57/0xa0 [<ffffffff811340dc>] vfs_fstatat+0x3c/0x80 [<ffffffff8113424b>] vfs_stat+0x1b/0x20 [<ffffffff81134274>] sys_newstat+0x24/0x50 [<ffffffff81013132>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b [<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff irq event stamp: 7811 hardirqs last enabled at (7811): [<ffffffff810c037f>] call_rcu+0x5f/0x90 hardirqs last disabled at (7810): [<ffffffff810c0353>] call_rcu+0x33/0x90 softirqs last enabled at (3764): [<ffffffff810631da>] __do_softirq+0x14a/0x220 softirqs last disabled at (3751): [<ffffffff8101440c>] call_softirq+0x1c/0x30 other info that might help us debug this: 2 locks held by kswapd0/323: #0: (shrinker_rwsem){++++..}, at: [<ffffffff810f67ed>] shrink_slab+0x3d/0x190 #1: (&type->s_umount_key#35){.+.+..}, at: [<ffffffff811429a1>] prune_dcache+0xd1/0x1b0 stack backtrace: Pid: 323, comm: kswapd0 Tainted: G C 2.6.31-2-generic #14~rbd3 Call Trace: [<ffffffff8108ad6c>] print_usage_bug+0x18c/0x1a0 [<ffffffff8108aff0>] ? check_usage_forwards+0x0/0xc0 [<ffffffff8108bac2>] mark_lock_irq+0xf2/0x280 [<ffffffff8108bd87>] mark_lock+0x137/0x1d0 [<ffffffff81164710>] ? fsnotify_clear_marks_by_inode+0x30/0xf0 [<ffffffff8108bee6>] mark_irqflags+0xc6/0x1a0 [<ffffffff8108d337>] __lock_acquire+0x287/0x430 [<ffffffff8108d585>] lock_acquire+0xa5/0x150 [<ffffffff81210d34>] ? ecryptfs_destroy_inode+0x34/0x100 [<ffffffff8108d2e7>] ? __lock_acquire+0x237/0x430 [<ffffffff815526ad>] __mutex_lock_common+0x4d/0x3d0 [<ffffffff81210d34>] ? ecryptfs_destroy_inode+0x34/0x100 [<ffffffff81164710>] ? fsnotify_clear_marks_by_inode+0x30/0xf0 [<ffffffff81210d34>] ? ecryptfs_destroy_inode+0x34/0x100 [<ffffffff8129a91e>] ? _raw_spin_unlock+0x5e/0xb0 [<ffffffff81552b36>] mutex_lock_nested+0x46/0x60 [<ffffffff81210d34>] ecryptfs_destroy_inode+0x34/0x100 [<ffffffff81145d27>] destroy_inode+0x87/0xd0 [<ffffffff81146b4c>] generic_delete_inode+0x12c/0x1a0 [<ffffffff81145832>] iput+0x62/0x70 [<ffffffff811423c8>] dentry_iput+0x98/0x110 [<ffffffff81142550>] d_kill+0x50/0x80 [<ffffffff81142623>] prune_one_dentry+0xa3/0xc0 [<ffffffff811428b1>] __shrink_dcache_sb+0x271/0x290 [<ffffffff811429d9>] prune_dcache+0x109/0x1b0 [<ffffffff81142abf>] shrink_dcache_memory+0x3f/0x50 [<ffffffff810f68dd>] shrink_slab+0x12d/0x190 [<ffffffff810f9377>] balance_pgdat+0x4d7/0x640 [<ffffffff8104c4c0>] ? finish_task_switch+0x40/0x150 [<ffffffff810f63c0>] ? isolate_pages_global+0x0/0x60 [<ffffffff810f95f7>] kswapd+0x117/0x170 [<ffffffff810777a0>] ? autoremove_wake_function+0x0/0x40 [<ffffffff810f94e0>] ? kswapd+0x0/0x170 [<ffffffff810773be>] kthread+0x9e/0xb0 [<ffffffff8101430a>] child_rip+0xa/0x20 [<ffffffff81013c90>] ? restore_args+0x0/0x30 [<ffffffff81077320>] ? kthread+0x0/0xb0 [<ffffffff81014300>] ? child_rip+0x0/0x20 Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <roland@digitalvampire.org> Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

The general one handles NULL, the static obsolescent (CONFIG_HAVE_LEGACY_PER_CPU_AREA) one in module.c doesn't; Eric's commit 720eba31 assumed it did, and various frobbings since then kept that assumption. All other callers in module.c all protect it with an if; this effectively does the same as free_init is only goto if we fail percpu_modalloc().

Normally the twisty paths of sysfs will free the attributes, but not if we fail before we hook it into sysfs (which is the last thing we do in load_module).

Some boot mechanisms require that kernel parameters are stored in a separate file which is loaded to memory without further processing (e.g. the "Load from FTP" method on s390). When such a file contains newline characters, the kernel parameter preceding the newline might not be correctly parsed (due to the newline being stuck to the end of the actual parameter value) which can lead to boot failures. This patch improves kernel command line usability in such a situation by allowing generic whitespace characters as separators between kernel parameters.

When unaligned accesses are required for uncompressing a kernel (such as for LZO decompression on ARM in a patch that follows), including <linux/kernel.h> causes issues as it brings in a lot of things that are not available in the decompression environment. linux/kernel.h brings at least: extern int console_printk[]; extern const char hex_asc[]; which causes errors at link-time as they are not available when compiling the pre-boot environement. There are also a few others: arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.o: In function `valid_user_regs': arch/arm/include/asm/ptrace.h:158: undefined reference to `elf_hwcap' arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.o: In function `console_silent': include/linux/kernel.h:292: undefined reference to `console_printk' arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.o: In function `console_verbose': include/linux/kernel.h:297: undefined reference to `console_printk' arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.o: In function `pack_hex_byte': include/linux/kernel.h:360: undefined reference to `hex_asc' arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.o: In function `hweight_long': include/linux/bitops.h:45: undefined reference to `hweight32' arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.o: In function `__cmpxchg_local_generic': include/asm-generic/cmpxchg-local.h:21: undefined reference to `wrong_size_cmpxchg' include/asm-generic/cmpxchg-local.h:42: undefined reference to `wrong_size_cmpxchg' arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.o: In function `__xchg': arch/arm/include/asm/system.h:309: undefined reference to `__bad_xchg' However, those files apparently use nothing from <linux/kernel.h>, all they need is the declaration of types such as u32 or u64, so <linux/types.h> should be enough Signed-off-by: Albin Tonnerre <albin.tonnerre@free-electrons.com> Cc: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Cc: Russell King <rmk@arm.linux.org.uk> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: "H.

In this case, the calls to request_mem_region, ioremap, and release_mem_region all have a consistent length argument, len, but since in other files (res->end - res->start) + 1, equivalent to resource_size(res), is used for a resource-typed structure res, one could consider whether the same should be done here.

Module edac_core.ko uses call_rcu() callbacks in edac_device.c, edac_mc.c and edac_pci.c. They all use a wait_for_completion() scheme, but this scheme it not 100% safe on multiple CPUs. See the _rcu_barrier() implementation which explains why extra precausion is needed. The patch adds a comment about rcu_barrier() and as a precausion calls rcu_barrier().

Add support for the Freescale MPC83xx memory controller to the existing driver for the Freescale MPC85xx memory controller. The only difference between the two processors are in the CS_BNDS register parsing code, which has been changed so it will work on both processors. The L2 cache controller does not exist on the MPC83xx, but the OF subsystem will not use the driver if the device is not present in the OF device tree. I had to change the nr_pages calculation to make the math work out. I checked it on my board and did the math by hand for a 64GB 85xx using 64K pages. In both cases, nr_pages * PAGE_SIZE comes out to the correct value. Signed-off-by: Ira W.
