* Revert "kernel: Only expose su when daemon is running"lineage-19.1Georg Veichtlbauer2023-05-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch is no longer necessary because we no longer ship su add-ons, which is this patch initially designed for. Now it causes another issue which breaks custom root solution such as Magisk, as Magisk switches worker tmpfs dir to RO instead of RW for safety reasons and happens to satisfy MS_RDONLY check for su file, resulting in su file totally inaccessible. This reverts commit 08ff8a2e58eb226015fa68d577121137a7e0953f. Change-Id: If25a9ef7e64c79412948f4619e08faaedb18aa13
* kernel: Only expose su when daemon is runningTom Marshall2022-07-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It has been claimed that the PG implementation of 'su' has security vulnerabilities even when disabled. Unfortunately, the people that find these vulnerabilities often like to keep them private so they can profit from exploits while leaving users exposed to malicious hackers. In order to reduce the attack surface for vulnerabilites, it is therefore necessary to make 'su' completely inaccessible when it is not in use (except by the root and system users).

* filldir[64]: remove WARN_ON_ONCE() for bad directory entriesLinus Torvalds2020-01-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit b9959c7a347d6adbb558fba7e36e9fef3cba3b07 upstream. This was always meant to be a temporary thing, just for testing and to see if it actually ever triggered. The only thing that reported it was syzbot doing disk image fuzzing, and then that warning is expected. So let's just remove it before -rc4, because the extra sanity testing should probably go to -stable, but we don't want the warning to do so.

* Make filldir[64]() verify the directory entry filename is validLinus Torvalds2020-01-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 8a23eb804ca4f2be909e372cf5a9e7b30ae476cd upstream. This has been discussed several times, and now filesystem people are talking about doing it individually at the filesystem layer, so head that off at the pass and just do it in getdents{64}(). This is partially based on a patch by Jann Horn, but checks for NUL bytes as well, and somewhat simplified. There's also commentary about how it might be better if invalid names due to filesystem corruption don't cause an immediate failure, but only an error at the end of the readdir(), so that people can still see the filenames that are ok. There's also been discussion about just how much POSIX strictly speaking requires this since it's about filesystem corruption. It's really more "protect user space from bad behavior" as pointed out by Jann. But since Eric Biederman looked up the POSIX wording, here it is for context: "From readdir: The readdir() function shall return a pointer to a structure representing the directory entry at the current position in the directory stream specified by the argument dirp, and position the directory stream at the next entry. It shall return a null pointer upon reaching the end of the directory stream. The structure dirent defined in the <dirent.h> header describes a directory entry. From definitions: 3.129 Directory Entry (or Link) An object that associates a filename with a file. Several directory entries can associate names with the same file. ... 3.169 Filename A name consisting of 1 to {NAME_MAX} bytes used to name a file. The characters composing the name may be selected from the set of all character values excluding the slash character and the null byte. The filenames dot and dot-dot have special meaning. A filename is sometimes referred to as a 'pathname component'." Note that I didn't bother adding the checks to any legacy interfaces that nobody uses. Also note that if this ends up being noticeable as a performance regression, we can fix that to do a much more optimized model that checks for both NUL and '/' at the same time one word at a time. We haven't really tended to optimize 'memchr()', and it only checks for one pattern at a time anyway, and we really _should_ check for NUL too (but see the comment about "soft errors" in the code about why it currently only checks for '/') See the CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS case of hash_name() for how the name lookup code looks for pathname terminating characters in parallel.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | New method - ->iterate(file, ctx). That's the replacement for ->readdir(); it takes callback from ctx->actor, uses ctx->pos instead of file->f_pos and calls dir_emit(ctx, ...) instead of filldir(data, ...). It does *not* update file->f_pos (or look at it, for that matter); iterate_dir() does the update. Note that dir_emit() takes the offset from ctx->pos (and eventually filldir_t will lose that argument). Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Using: gcc (GCC) 4.5.0 20100610 (prerelease) The following warnings appear: fs/readdir.c: In function `filldir64': fs/readdir.c:240:15: warning: `dirent' is used uninitialized in this function fs/readdir.c: In function `filldir': fs/readdir.c:155:15: warning: `dirent' is used uninitialized in this function fs/compat.c: In function `compat_filldir64': fs/compat.c:1071:11: warning: `dirent' is used uninitialized in this function fs/compat.c: In function `compat_filldir': fs/compat.c:984:15: warning: `dirent' is used uninitialized in this function The warnings are related to the use of the NAME_OFFSET() macro. Luckily, it appears as though the standard offsetof() macro is what is being implemented by NAME_OFFSET(), thus we can fix the warning and use a more standard code construct at the same time.

* [PATCH] VFS: Make filldir_t and struct kstat deal in 64-bit inode numbersDavid Howells2006-10-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These patches make the kernel pass 64-bit inode numbers internally when communicating to userspace, even on a 32-bit system. They are required because some filesystems have intrinsic 64-bit inode numbers: NFS3+ and XFS for example. The 64-bit inode numbers are then propagated to userspace automatically where the arch supports it. Problems have been seen with userspace (eg: ld.so) using the 64-bit inode number returned by stat64() or getdents64() to differentiate files, and failing because the 64-bit inode number space was compressed to 32-bits, and so overlaps occur. This patch: Make filldir_t take a 64-bit inode number and struct kstat carry a 64-bit inode number so that 64-bit inode numbers can be passed back to userspace. The stat functions then returns the full 64-bit inode number where available and where possible. If it is not possible to represent the inode number supplied by the filesystem in the field provided by userspace, then error EOVERFLOW will be issued. Similarly, the getdents/readdir functions now pass the full 64-bit inode number to userspace where possible, returning EOVERFLOW instead when a directory entry is encountered that can't be properly represented. Note that this means that some inodes will not be stat'able on a 32-bit system with old libraries where they were before - but it does mean that there will be no ambiguity over what a 32-bit inode number refers to. Note similarly that directory scans may be cut short with an error on a 32-bit system with old libraries where the scan would work before for the same reasons. It is judged unlikely that this situation will occur because modern glibc uses 64-bit capable versions of stat and getdents class functions exclusively, and that older systems are unlikely to encounter unrepresentable inode numbers anyway.

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-16
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
