Check O_DIRECT and return -EINVAL error in open. dentry_open() also checks
this but only after the open method is called. This patch optimizes away
the unnecessary upcalls in this case.
It could be a correctness issue too: if filesystem has open() with side
effect, then it should fail before doing the open, not after.
Calling truncate() on hostfs spits a kernel warning "Something isn't
implemented here", but it still works fine.
Indeed, hostfs i_op->truncate doesn't do anything. But hostfs_setattr() ->
set_attr() correctly detects ATTR_SIZE and calls truncate() on the host. So
we should be safe (using ftruncate() may be better, in case the file is
unlinked on the host, but we aren't sure to have the file open for writing,
and reopening it would cause the same races; plus nobody should expect UML to
be so careful).
So, the warning is wrong, because the current implementation is working. Al,
am I correct, and can the warning be therefore dropped?

[PATCH] SELinux - fix SCTP socket bug and general IP protocol handling
The following patch updates the way SELinux classifies and handles IP
based protocols.
Currently, IP sockets are classified by SELinux as being either TCP, UDP
or 'Raw', the latter being a default for IP socket that is not TCP or UDP.
The classification code is out of date and uses only the socket type
parameter to socket(2) to determine the class of IP socket. So, any
socket created with SOCK_STREAM will be classified by SELinux as TCP, and
SOCK_DGRAM as UDP. Also, other socket types such as SOCK_SEQPACKET and
SOCK_DCCP are currently ignored by SELinux, which classifies them as
generic sockets, which means they don't even get basic IP level checking.
This patch changes the SELinux IP socket classification logic, so that
only an IPPROTO_IP protocol value passed to socket(2) classify the socket
as TCP or UDP. The patch also drops the check for SOCK_RAW and converts
it into a default, so that socket types like SOCK_DCCP and SOCK_SEQPACKET
are classified as SECCLASS_RAWIP_SOCKET (instead of generic sockets).
Note that protocol-specific support for SCTP, DCCP etc. is not addressed
here, we're just getting these protocols checked at the IP layer.
This fixes a reported problem where SCTP sockets were being recognized as
generic SELinux sockets yet still being passed in one case to an IP level
check, which then fails for generic sockets.
It will also fix bugs where any SOCK_STREAM socket is classified as TCP or
any SOCK_DGRAM socket is classified as UDP.
This patch also unifies the way IP sockets classes are determined in
selinux_socket_bind(), so we use the already calculated value instead of
trying to recalculate it.

[TCP]: Don't over-clamp window in tcp_clamp_window()
From: Alexey Kuznetsov <kuznet@ms2.inr.ac.ru>
Handle better the case where the sender sends full sized
frames initially, then moves to a mode where it trickles
out small amounts of data at a time.
This known problem is even mentioned in the comments
above tcp_grow_window() in tcp_input.c, specifically:
...
* The scheme does not work when sender sends good segments opening
* window and then starts to feed us spagetti. But it should work
* in common situations. Otherwise, we have to rely on queue collapsing.
...
When the sender gives full sized frames, the "struct sk_buff" overhead
from each packet is small. So we'll advertize a larger window.
If the sender moves to a mode where small segments are sent, this
ratio becomes tilted to the other extreme and we start overrunning
the socket buffer space.
tcp_clamp_window() tries to address this, but it's clamping of
tp->window_clamp is a wee bit too aggressive for this particular case.
Fix confirmed by Ion Badulescu.
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Alexey Kuznetsov has explained the situation as follows:
--------------------
I think the fix is incorrect. Look, the RFC function init_cwnd(mss) is
not continuous: f.e. for mss=1095 it needs initial window 1095*4, but
for mss=1096 it is 1096*3. We do not know exactly what mss sender used
for calculations. If we advertised 1096 (and calculate initial window
3*1096), the sender could limit it to some value < 1096 and then it
will need window his_mss*4 > 3*1096 to send initial burst.
See?
So, the honest function for inital rcv_wnd derived from
tcp_init_cwnd() is:
init_rcv_wnd(mss)=
min { init_cwnd(mss1)*mss1 for mss1 <= mss }
It is something sort of:
if (mss < 1096)
return mss*4;
if (mss < 1096*2)
return 1096*4;
return mss*2;
(I just scrablled a graph of piece of paper, it is difficult to see or
to explain without this)
I selected it differently giving more window than it is strictly
required. Initial receive window must be large enough to allow sender
following to the rfc (or just setting initial cwnd to 2) to send
initial burst. But besides that it is arbitrary, so I decided to give
slack space of one segment.
Actually, the logic was:
If mss is low/normal (<=ethernet), set window to receive more than
initial burst allowed by rfc under the worst conditions
i.e. mss*4. This gives slack space of 1 segment for ethernet frames.
For msses slighlty more than ethernet frame, take 3. Try to give slack
space of 1 frame again.
If mss is huge, force 2*mss. No slack space.
Value 1460*3 is really confusing. Minimal one is 1096*2, but besides
that it is an arbitrary value. It was meant to be ~4096. 1460*3 is
just the magic number from RFC, 1460*3 = 1095*4 is the magic :-), so
that I guess hands typed this themselves.

The attached patch adds extra permission grants to keys for the possessor of a
key in addition to the owner, group and other permissions bits. This makes
SUID binaries easier to support without going as far as labelling keys and key
targets using the LSM facilities.
This patch adds a second "pointer type" to key structures (struct key_ref *)
that can have the bottom bit of the address set to indicate the possession of
a key. This is propagated through searches from the keyring to the discovered
key. It has been made a separate type so that the compiler can spot attempts
to dereference a potentially incorrect pointer.
The "possession" attribute can't be attached to a key structure directly as
it's not an intrinsic property of a key.
Pointers to keys have been replaced with struct key_ref *'s wherever
possession information needs to be passed through.
This does assume that the bottom bit of the pointer will always be zero on
return from kmem_cache_alloc().
The key reference type has been made into a typedef so that at least it can be
located in the sources, even though it's basically a pointer to an undefined
type. I've also renamed the accessor functions to be more useful, and all
reference variables should now end in "_ref".
