Calculating the 'security.evm' HMAC value requires access to the

When IMA did not support ima-appraisal, existance of the S_IMA flag
clearly indicated that the file was measured. With IMA appraisal S_IMA
flag indicates that file was measured and/or appraised. Because of
this, when measurement is not enabled by the policy, violations are
still reported.
To differentiate between measurement and appraisal policies this
patch checks the inode integrity cache flags. The IMA_MEASURED
flag indicates whether the file was actually measured, while the
IMA_MEASURE flag indicates whether the file should be measured.
Unfortunately, the IMA_MEASURED flag is reset to indicate the file
needs to be re-measured. Thus, this patch checks the IMA_MEASURE
flag.
This patch limits the false positive violation reports, but does
not fix it entirely. The IMA_MEASURE/IMA_MEASURED flags are
indications that, at some point in time, the file opened for read
was in policy, but might not be in policy now (eg. different uid).
Other changes would be needed to further limit false positive
violation reports.

ima_rdwr_violation_check is called for every file openning.

Newer versions of SMACK introduced following security xattrs:
SMACK64EXEC, SMACK64TRANSMUTE and SMACK64MMAP.
To protect these xattrs, this patch includes them in the HMAC
calculation. However, for backwards compatibility with existing
labeled filesystems, including these xattrs needs to be
configurable.

Using HMAC version limits the posibility to arbitrarily add new
attributes such as SMACK64EXEC to the hmac calculation.
This patch replaces hmac version with attribute mask.
Desired attributes can be enabled with configuration parameter.
It allows to build kernels which works with previously labeled
filesystems.
Currently supported attribute is 'fsuuid' which is equivalent of
the former version 2.

This patch fixes a NULL pointer dereference regression bug that was

commit 1e1110c43b
Author: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>
Date: Sat May 17 06:49:22 2014 -0400
target: fix memory leak on XCOPY
Now that target_put_sess_cmd() -> kref_put_spinlock_irqsave() is
called with a valid se_cmd->cmd_kref, a NULL pointer dereference
is triggered because the XCOPY passthrough commands don't have
an associated se_session pointer.
To address this bug, go ahead and checking for a NULL se_sess pointer
within target_put_sess_cmd(), and call se_cmd->se_tfo->release_cmd()
to release the XCOPY's xcopy_pt_cmd memory.

When running RHEL6 userspace on a current upstream kernel, "ip link"
fails to show VF information.
The reason is a kernel<->userspace API change introduced by commit
88c5b5ce5c ("rtnetlink: Call nlmsg_parse() with correct header length"),
after which the kernel does not see iproute2's IFLA_EXT_MASK attribute
in the netlink request.
iproute2 adjusted for the API change in its commit 63338dca4513
("libnetlink: Use ifinfomsg instead of rtgenmsg in rtnl_wilddump_req_filter").
The problem has been noticed before:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=136692296022182&w=2
(Subject: Re: getting VF link info seems to be broken in 3.9-rc8)
We can do better than tell those with old userspace to upgrade. We can
recognize the old iproute2 in the kernel by checking the netlink message
length. Even when including the IFLA_EXT_MASK attribute, its netlink
message is shorter than struct ifinfomsg.
With this patch "ip link" shows VF information in both old and new
iproute2 versions.

FEC HW support IP header and TCP/UDP hw checksum, support multi buffer descriptor transfer
one frame, but don't support HW TSO. And imx6q/dl SOC FEC Gbps speed has HW bus Bandwidth
limitation (400Mbps ~ 700Mbps), imx6sx SOC FEC Gbps speed has no HW bandwidth limitation.
The patch set just enable TSO feature, which is done following the mv643xx_eth driver.
Test result analyze:
imx6dl sabresd board: there have 82% improvement, since imx6dl FEC HW has bandwidth limitation,
the performance with SW TSO is a milestone.
Addition test:
imx6sx sdb board:
upstream still don't support imx6sx due to some patches being upstream... they use same FEC IP.
Use the SW TSO patches test imx6sx sdb board in internal kernel tree:
No SW TSO patch: tx bandwidth 840Mbps, cpu loading is 100%.
SW TSO patch: tx bandwidth 942Mbps, cpu loading is 65%.
It means the patch set have great improvement for imx6sx FEC performance.
V2:
* From Frank Li's suggestion:
Change the API "fec_enet_txdesc_entry_free" name to "fec_enet_get_free_txdesc_num".
* Summary David Laight and Eric Dumazet's thoughts:
RX BD entry number change to 256.
* From ezequiel's suggestion:
Follow the latest TSO fixes from his solution to rework the queue stop/wake-up.
Avoid unmapping the TSO header buffers.
* From Eric Dumazet's suggestion:
Avoid more bytes copy, just copying the unaligned part of the payload into first
descriptor. The suggestion will bring more complex for the driver, and imx6dl FEC
DMA need 16 bytes alignment, but cpu loading is not problem that cpu loading is
30%, the current performance is so better. Later chip like imx6sx Gigbit FEC DMA
support byte alignment, so there don't exist memory copy. So, the V2 version drop
the suggestion.
Anyway, thanks for Eric's response and suggestion.
V3:
* From David Laight's feedback:
Decide to drop RX BD entry number change for the SW TSO patch set.
I will generate one separate patch to increase RX BDs entry for interrupt coalescing feature which
will be supported in my later patch set.
V4:
* From David Laight's feedback:
Remove the conditional in .fec_enet_get_bd_index().
V5:
* Patch #4 update:
From David Laight's feedback:
"expect fec_enet_get_free_txdesc_num() to return one less than it does currently."
Change the function:
Return space available, 0..size-1. it always leave one free entry. Which is same as linux circ_buf.
Thanks for Eric and ezequiel's help and idea.

IP header checksum is calcalated by network layer in default.
To support software TSO, it is better to use HW calculate the
IP header checksum.
FEC hw checksum feature request the checksum field in frame
is zero, otherwise the calculative CRC is not correct.
For segmentated TCP packet, HW calculate the IP header checksum again,
it doesn't bring any impact. For SW TSO, HW calculated checksum bring

we previously assumed 'group' could be null (see line 1349)"
In the rare (sort of broken) case of a query having a Maximum
Response Delay of zero, we could create a potential null pointer
dereference.
Fixing this by skipping the multicast specific MLD Query parsing again
if no multicast group address is available.

With some specific configuration (VT6105M on Soekris 5510 and depending
on the device at the other end), fragmented packets were not transmitted
when forcing 100 full-duplex with autoneg disable.
This fix now write full-duplex chips register when forcing full or
half-duplex not only when autoneg is enable.

Pull vfs updates from Al Viro:
"This the bunch that sat in -next + lock_parent() fix. This is the
minimal set; there's more pending stuff.
In particular, I really hope to get acct.c fixes merged this cycle -
we need that to deal sanely with delayed-mntput stuff. In the next
pile, hopefully - that series is fairly short and localized
(kernel/acct.c, fs/super.c and fs/namespace.c). In this pile: more
iov_iter work. Most of prereqs for ->splice_write with sane locking
order are there and Kent's dio rewrite would also fit nicely on top of
this pile"

A malicious VF might try to starve the other VFs & PF by creating
contineous doorbell floods. In order to negate this, HW has a threshold of
doorbells per client, which will stop the client doorbells from arriving
if crossed.
The threshold currently configured for VFs is too low - under extreme traffic
scenarios, it's possible for a VF to reach the threshold and thus for its
fastpath to stop working.

If L2FW utilized by the UNDI driver has the same version number as that
of the regular FW, a driver loading after UNDI and receiving an uncommon
answer from management will mistakenly assume the loaded FW matches its
own requirement and try to exist the flow via FLR.

This avoids clearing the RX polarity setting in KR mode when polarity lane
is swapped, as otherwise this will result in failed link.

Consider the scenario:
For a TCP-style socket, while processing the COOKIE_ECHO chunk in
sctp_sf_do_5_1D_ce(), after it has passed a series of sanity check,
a new association would be created in sctp_unpack_cookie(), but afterwards,
some processing maybe failed, and sctp_association_free() will be called to
free the previously allocated association, in sctp_association_free(),
sk_ack_backlog value is decremented for this socket, since the initial
value for sk_ack_backlog is 0, after the decrement, it will be 65535,
a wrap-around problem happens, and if we want to establish new associations
afterward in the same socket, ABORT would be triggered since sctp deem the
accept queue as full.
Fix this issue by only decrementing sk_ack_backlog for associations in
the endpoint's list.
