16 years agoRemove newline from the description of module parameters
Niels de Vos [Thu, 31 Jul 2008 07:07:23 +0000 (00:07 -0700)]
Remove newline from the description of module parameters

Some module parameters with only one line have the '\n' at the end of the
description.  This is not needed nor wanted as after the description the
type (i.e.  int) is followed by a newline.

Some modules contain a multi-line description, these are not affected
by this patch.

16 years agotracehook: fix exit_signal=0 case
Roland McGrath [Thu, 31 Jul 2008 09:04:09 +0000 (02:04 -0700)]
tracehook: fix exit_signal=0 case

My commit 2b2a1ff64afbadac842bbc58c5166962cf4f7664 introduced a regression
(sorry about that) for the odd case of exit_signal=0 (e.g. clone_flags=0).
This is not a normal use, but it's used by a case in the glibc test suite.

Dying with exit_signal=0 sends no signal, but it's supposed to wake up a
parent's blocked wait*() calls (unlike the delayed_group_leader case).
This fixes tracehook_notify_death() and its caller to distinguish a
"signal 0" wakeup from the delayed_group_leader case (with no wakeup).

16 years agokernel/audit.c control character detection is off-by-one

kernel/audit.c control character detection is off-by-one

Hello,

According to my understanding there is an off-by-one bug in the
function:

   audit_string_contains_control()

in:

  kernel/audit.c

Patch is included.

I do not know from how many places the function is called from, but for
example, SELinux Access Vector Cache tries to log untrusted filenames via
call path:

avc_audit()
     audit_log_untrustedstring()
         audit_log_n_untrustedstring()
             audit_string_contains_control()

If audit_string_contains_control() detects control characters, then the
string is hex-encoded. But the hex=0x7f dec=127, DEL-character, is not
detected.

I guess this could have at least some minor security implications, since a
user can create a filename with 0x7f in it, causing logged filename to
possibly look different when someone reads it on the terminal.

Which stayed unnoticed for a long time because, surprise, idr_remove()

All of this due to "| ~MAX_ID_MASK" in release_inode_number().

ipvs: Move userspace definitions to include/linux/ip_vs.h

Current versions of ipvsadm include "/usr/src/linux/include/net/ip_vs.h"
directly. This file also contains kernel-only definitions. Normally, public
definitions should live in include/linux, so this patch moves the
definitions shared with userspace to a new file, "include/linux/ip_vs.h".

This also removes the unused NFC_IPVS_PROPERTY bitmask, which was once
used to point into skb->nfcache.

To make old ipvsadms still compile with this, the old header file includes
the new one.

Thanks to Dave Miller and Horms for noting/adding the missing Kbuild entry
for the new header file.

hwmon: (lm75) add new-style driver binding

More LM75 updates:

 - Teach the LM75 driver to use new-style driver binding:

     * Create a second driver struct, using new-style driver binding
       methods cribbed from the legacy code.

     * Add a MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE (for "newER-style binding")

     * The legacy probe logic delegates its work to this new code.

     * The legacy driver now uses the name "lm75_legacy".

 - More careful initialization.  Chips are put into 9-bit mode so
   the current interconversion routines will never fail.

 - Save the original chip configuration, and restore it on exit.
   (Among other things, this normally turns off the mode where
   the chip is constantly sampling ... and thus saves power.)

So the new-style code should catch all chips that boards declare,
while the legacy code catches others.  This particular coexistence
strategy may need some work yet ... legacy modes might best be set
up explicitly by some tool not unlike "sensors-detect".  (Or else
completely eradicated...)

Minor cleanup and reorg of the lm75 code.

 - A top comment now says what the driver does (!) ... as in, just
   what sort of sensor is this??

 - Section comments now delineate the various sections of the driver:
   hwmon attributes, driver binding, register access, module glue.
   One driver binding function moved out of the attribute section,
   as did the driver struct itself.

 - Minor tweaks to legacy probe logic:  correct a comment, and
   remove a pointless variable.

 - Whitespace, linelength, and comment fixes.

This patch should include no functional changes.  It's preparation
for adding new-style (driver model) I2C driver binding.
