16 years agofile capabilities: remove cap_task_kill()
Serge Hallyn [Fri, 29 Feb 2008 15:14:57 +0000 (15:14 +0000)]
file capabilities: remove cap_task_kill()

The original justification for cap_task_kill() was as follows:

check_kill_permission() does appropriate uid equivalence checks.
However with file capabilities it becomes possible for an
unprivileged user to execute a file with file capabilities
resulting in a more privileged task with the same uid.

However now that cap_task_kill() always returns 0 (permission
granted) when p->uid==current->uid, the whole hook is worthless,
and only likely to create more subtle problems in the corner cases
where it might still be called but return -EPERM.  Those cases
are basically when uids are different but euid/suid is equivalent
as per the check in check_kill_permission().

One example of a still-broken application is 'at' for non-root users.

This patch removes cap_task_kill().

Change ":" to ";" so that it doesn't get treated as a doc section heading.
Move the comment block ending "*/" to a line by itself so that the text on

16 years agorcu: fix misplaced mb() in rcu_enter/exit_nohz()

rcu: fix misplaced mb() in rcu_enter/exit_nohz()

In the process of writing up the mechanical proof of correctness for the
dynticks/preemptable-RCU interface, I noticed misplaced memory barriers in
rcu_enter_nohz() and rcu_exit_nohz().

This patch puts them in the right place and adds a comment.  The key thing to
keep in mind is that rcu_enter_nohz() is -exiting- the mode that can legally
execute RCU read-side critical sections.

The memory barrier must be between any potential RCU read-side critical
sections and the increment of the per-CPU dynticks_progress_counter, and thus
must come -before- this increment.  And vice versa for rcu_exit_nohz().

The locking in the scheduler is probably saving us for the moment.

Also, switch to smp_mb() - we don't need a barrier for uniprocessor kernels.

Quentin Barnes [Thu, 20 Mar 2008 00:00:39 +0000 (17:00 -0700)]
aio: bad AIO race in aio_complete() leads to process hang

My group ran into a AIO process hang on a 2.6.24 kernel with the process
sleeping indefinitely in io_getevents(2) waiting for the last wakeup to come
and it never would.

We ran the tests on x86_64 SMP.  The hang only occurred on a Xeon box
("Clovertown") but not a Core2Duo ("Conroe").  On the Xeon, the L2 cache isn't
shared between all eight processors, but is L2 is shared between between all
two processors on the Core2Duo we use.

My analysis of the hang is if you go down to the second while-loop
in read_events(), what happens on processor #1:
1) add_wait_queue_exclusive() adds thread to ctx->wait
2) aio_read_evt() to check tail
3) if aio_read_evt() returned 0, call [io_]schedule() and sleep

In aio_complete() with processor #2:
A) info->tail = tail;
B) waitqueue_active(&ctx->wait)
C) if waitqueue_active() returned non-0, call wake_up()

The way the code is written, step 1 must be seen by all other processors
before processor 1 checks for pending events in step 2 (that were recorded by
step A) and step A by processor 2 must be seen by all other processors
(checked in step 2) before step B is done.

The race I believed I was seeing is that steps 1 and 2 were
effectively swapped due to the __list_add() being delayed by the L2
cache not shared by some of the other processors.  Imagine:
proc 2: just before step A
proc 1, step 1: adds to ctx->wait, but is not visible by other processors yet
proc 1, step 2: checks tail and sees no pending events
proc 2, step A: updates tail
proc 1, step 3: calls [io_]schedule() and sleeps
proc 2, step B: checks ctx->wait, but sees no one waiting, skips wakeup
                so proc 1 sleeps indefinitely

My patch adds a memory barrier between steps A and B.  It ensures that the
update in step 1 gets seen on processor 2 before continuing.  If processor 1
was just before step 1, the memory barrier makes sure that step A (update

IDE: Make taskfile interface more robust wrt unexpected end-of-command

Now that we handle all the special commands using REQ_TYPE_ATA_TASKFILE
rather than using the old REQ_TYPE_ATA_CMD model, we need to also
emulate the lack of full taskfile data that comes with the old command
model (ie when commands are generated with the HDIO_DRIVE_CMD ioctl
rather than using the HDIO_DRIVE_TASK[FILE] ioctls).

In particular, this means that we should handle command completion the
more relaxed way that the old drive_cmd_intr() code did.  It allows
commands to finish early even if they don't use up all the data that we
thought we had for them.

This fixes a regression seen by Anders Eriksson where some SMART

machine because the IDE command handling code didn't realize that the

We also changed KEY_BACK and KEY_FORWARD, which apply to browser functions, to
KEY_PREVIOUSSONG and KEY_NEXTSONG, since the keys are intended to control a

But when the batter is dead, a bogus reference in the template
