git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace Pull user namespace updates from Eric Biederman: "Long ago and far away when user namespaces where young it was realized that allowing fresh mounts of proc and sysfs with only user namespace permissions could violate the basic rule that only root gets to decide if proc or sysfs should be mounted at all. Some hacks were put in place to reduce the worst of the damage could be done, and the common sense rule was adopted that fresh mounts of proc and sysfs should allow no more than bind mounts of proc and sysfs. Unfortunately that rule has not been fully enforced. There are two kinds of gaps in that enforcement. Only filesystems mounted on empty directories of proc and sysfs should be ignored but the test for empty directories was insufficient. So in my tree directories on proc, sysctl and sysfs that will always be empty are created specially. Every other technique is imperfect as an ordinary directory can have entries added even after a readdir returns and shows that the directory is empty. Special creation of directories for mount points makes the code in the kernel a smidge clearer about it's purpose. I asked container developers from the various container projects to help test this and no holes were found in the set of mount points on proc and sysfs that are created specially. This set of changes also starts enforcing the mount flags of fresh mounts of proc and sysfs are consistent with the existing mount of proc and sysfs. I expected this to be the boring part of the work but unfortunately unprivileged userspace winds up mounting fresh copies of proc and sysfs with noexec and nosuid clear when root set those flags on the previous mount of proc and sysfs. So for now only the atime, read-only and nodev attributes which userspace happens to keep consistent are enforced. Dealing with the noexec and nosuid attributes remains for another time. This set of changes also addresses an issue with how open file descriptors from /proc/<pid>/ns/* are displayed. Recently readlink of /proc/<pid>/fd has been triggering a WARN_ON that has not been meaningful since it was added (as all of the code in the kernel was converted) and is not now actively wrong. There is also a short list of issues that have not been fixed yet that I will mention briefly. It is possible to rename a directory from below to above a bind mount. At which point any directory pointers below the renamed directory can be walked up to the root directory of the filesystem. With user namespaces enabled a bind mount of the bind mount can be created allowing the user to pick a directory whose children they can rename to outside of the bind mount. This is challenging to fix and doubly so because all obvious solutions must touch code that is in the performance part of pathname resolution. As mentioned above there is also a question of how to ensure that developers by accident or with purpose do not introduce exectuable files on sysfs and proc and in doing so introduce security regressions in the current userspace that will not be immediately obvious and as such are likely to require breaking userspace in painful ways once they are recognized" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: vfs: Remove incorrect debugging WARN in prepend_path mnt: Update fs_fully_visible to test for permanently empty directories sysfs: Create mountpoints with sysfs_create_mount_point sysfs: Add support for permanently empty directories to serve as mount points. kernfs: Add support for always empty directories. proc: Allow creating permanently empty directories that serve as mount points sysctl: Allow creating permanently empty directories that serve as mountpoints. fs: Add helper functions for permanently empty directories. vfs: Ignore unlocked mounts in fs_fully_visible mnt: Modify fs_fully_visible to deal with locked ro nodev and atime mnt: Refactor the logic for mounting sysfs and proc in a user namespace

2014-12-11pstore-ram: Allow optional mapping with pgprot_noncachedTony Lindgren
On some ARMs the memory can be mapped pgprot_noncached() and still be working for atomic operations. As pointed out by Colin Cross <ccross@android.com>, in some cases you do want to use pgprot_noncached() if the SoC supports it to see a debug printk just before a write hanging the system. On ARMs, the atomic operations on strongly ordered memory are implementation defined. So let's provide an optional kernel parameter for configuring pgprot_noncached(), and use pgprot_writecombine() by default.

2014-12-11pstore-ram: Fix hangs by using write-combine mappingsRob Herring
Currently trying to use pstore on at least ARMs can hang as we're mapping the peristent RAM with pgprot_noncached(). On ARMs, pgprot_noncached() will actually make the memory strongly ordered, and as the atomic operations pstore uses are implementation defined for strongly ordered memory, they may not work. So basically atomic operations have undefined behavior on ARM for device or strongly ordered memory types. Let's fix the issue by using write-combine variants for mappings. This corresponds to normal, non-cacheable memory on ARM. For many other architectures, this change does not change the mapping type as by default we have: #define pgprot_writecombine pgprot_noncached The reason why pgprot_noncached() was originaly used for pstore is because Colin Cross <ccross@android.com> had observed lost debug prints right before a device hanging write operation on some systems. For the platforms supporting pgprot_noncached(), we can add a an optional configuration option to support that. But let's get pstore working first before adding new features.

2014-11-05pstore/ram: Strip ramoops header for correct decompressionBen Zhang
pstore compression/decompression was added during 3.12. The ramoops driver prepends a "====timestamp.timestamp-C|D\n" header to the compressed record before handing it over to pstore driver which doesn't know about the header. In pstore_decompress(), the pstore driver reads the first "==" as a zlib header, so the decompression always fails. For example, this causes the driver to write /dev/pstore/dmesg-ramoops-0.enc.z instead of /dev/pstore/dmesg-ramoops-0. This patch makes the ramoops driver remove the header before pstore decompression.

2014-03-13fs: push sync_filesystem() down to the file system's remount_fs()Theodore Ts'o
Previously, the no-op "mount -o mount /dev/xxx" operation when the file system is already mounted read-write causes an implied, unconditional syncfs(). This seems pretty stupid, and it's certainly documented or guaraunteed to do this, nor is it particularly useful, except in the case where the file system was mounted rw and is getting remounted read-only. However, it's possible that there might be some file systems that are actually depending on this behavior. In most file systems, it's probably fine to only call sync_filesystem() when transitioning from read-write to read-only, and there are some file systems where this is not needed at all (for example, for a pseudo-filesystem or something like romfs).

2013-09-16pstore: Adjust buffer size for compression for smaller registered buffersAruna Balakrishnaiah
When backends (ex: efivars) have smaller registered buffers, the big_oops_buf is too big for them as number of repeated occurences in the text captured will be less. What happens is that pstore takes too big a bite from the dmesg log and then finds it cannot compress it enough to meet the backend block size. Patch takes care of adjusting the buffer size based on the registered buffer size. cmpr values have been arrived after doing experiments with plain text for buffers of size 1k - 4k (Smaller the buffer size repeated occurence will be less) and with sample crash log for buffers ranging from 4k - 10k.

Add compression support to pstore which will help in capturing more data. Initially, pstore will make a call to kmsg_dump with a bigger buffer and will pass the size of bigger buffer to kmsg_dump and then compress the data to registered buffer of registered size. In case compression fails, pstore will capture the uncompressed data by making a call again to kmsg_dump with registered_buffer of registered size. Pstore will indicate the data is compressed or not with a flag in the write callback.

It is no longer specific to pseries but is now usable by the new "powernv" platform as well (no hypervisor) by Gavin Shan. - I fixed some bugs in our math-emu instruction decoding and made it usable to emulate some optional FP instructions on processors with hard FP that lack them (such as fsqrt on Freescale embedded processors). - Support for Power8 "Event Based Branch" facility by Michael Ellerman. This facility allows what is basically "userspace interrupts" for performance monitor events. - A bunch of Transactional Memory vs. Signals bug fixes and HW breakpoint/watchpoint fixes by Michael Neuling.
