18c98b6527 ptrace_signal subroutine
This breaks out the ptrace handling from get_signal_to_deliver into a
new subroutine.  The actual code there doesn't change, and it gets
inlined into nearly identical compiled code.  This makes the function
substantially shorter and thus easier to read, and it nicely isolates
the ptrace magic.

0e04388f01 cgroup: fix a race condition in manipulating tsk->cg_list
When I ran a test program to fork mass processes and at the same time
'cat /cgroup/tasks', I got the following oops:

  ------------[ cut here ]------------
  kernel BUG at lib/list_debug.c:72!

  ---[ end trace caffb7332252612b ]---
  Fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed!

After digging into the code and debugging, I finlly found out a race
situation:

				do_exit()
				  ->cgroup_exit()
				    ->if (!list_empty(&tsk->cg_list))
				        list_del(&tsk->cg_list);

  cgroup_iter_start()
    ->cgroup_enable_task_cg_list()
      ->list_add(&tsk->cg_list, ..);

In this case the list won't be deleted though the process has exited.

We got two bug reports in the past, which seem to be the same bug as
this one:
	http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/3/5/332
	http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/10/17/224

Actually sometimes I got oops on list_del, sometimes oops on list_add.
And I can change my test program a bit to trigger other oops.

The patch has been tested both on x86_32 and x86_64.

3e11217263 SELinux: Add network port SID cache
Much like we added a network node cache, this patch adds a network port
cache. The design is taken almost completely from the network node cache
which in turn was taken from the network interface cache.  The basic idea is
to cache entries in a hash table based on protocol/port information.  The
hash function only takes the port number into account since the number of
different protocols in use at any one time is expected to be relatively
small.

64dbf07474 selinux: introduce permissive types
Introduce the concept of a permissive type.  A new ebitmap is introduced to
the policy database which indicates if a given type has the permissive bit
set or not.  This bit is tested for the scontext of any denial.  The bit is
meaningless on types which only appear as the target of a decision and never
the source.  A domain running with a permissive type will be allowed to
perform any action similarly to when the system is globally set permissive.

This changes checks related to ptrace to get rid of the ptrace_sid tracking.
It's good to disentangle the security model from the ptrace implementation

eda4f69ca5 SELinux: requesting no permissions in avc_has_perm_noaudit is a BUG()
This patch turns the case where we have a call into avc_has_perm with no
requested permissions into a BUG_ON.  All callers to this should be in
the kernel and thus should be a function we need to fix if we ever hit
this.  The /selinux/access permission checking it done directly in the
security server and not through the avc, so those requests which we
cannot control from userspace should not be able to trigger this BUG_ON.

b0c636b999 SELinux: create new open permission
Adds a new open permission inside SELinux when 'opening' a file.  The idea
is that opening a file and reading/writing to that file are not the same
thing.  Its different if a program had its stdout redirected to /tmp/output
than if the program tried to directly open /tmp/output. This should allow
policy writers to more liberally give read/write permissions across the
policy while still blocking many design and programing flaws SELinux is so
good at catching today.

f74af6e816 SELinux: Correct the NetLabel locking for the sk_security_struct
The RCU/spinlock locking approach for the nlbl_state in the sk_security_struct
was almost certainly overkill.  This patch removes both the RCU and spinlock
locking, relying on the existing socket locks to handle the case of multiple
writers.  This change also makes several code reductions possible.

Less locking, less code - it's a Good Thing.

56fb709329 kgdb: fix SMP NMI kgdb_handle_exception exit race
Fix the problem of protecting the kgdb handle_exception exit
which had an NMI race condition, while trying to restore
normal system operation.

There was a small window after the master processor sets cpu_in_debug
to zero but before it has set kgdb_active to zero where a
non-master processor in an SMP system could receive an NMI and
re-enter the kgdb_wait() loop.

As long as the master processor sets the cpu_in_debug before sending
the cpu roundup the cpu_in_debug variable can also be used to guard
against the race condition.

The kgdb_wait() function no longer needs to check
kgdb_active because it is done in the arch specific code
and handled along with the nmi traps at the low level.
This also allows kgdb_wait() to exit correctly if it was
entered for some unknown reason due to a spurious NMI that
could not be handled by the arch specific code.

e8d31c204e kgdb: add kgdb internal test suite
This patch adds regression tests for testing the kgdb core and arch
specific implementation.

The kgdb test suite is designed to be built into the kernel and not as
a module because it uses a number of low level kernel and kgdb
primitives which should not be exported externally.

The kgdb test suite is designed as a KGDB I/O module which
simulates the communications that a debugger would have with kgdb.
The tests are broken up in to a line by line and referenced here as
a "get" which is kgdb requesting input and "put" which is kgdb
sending a response.

The kgdb suite can be invoked from the kernel command line
arguments system or executed dynamically at run time.  The test
suite uses the variable "kgdbts" to obtain the information about
which tests to run and to configure the verbosity level.  The
following are the various characters you can use with the kgdbts=
line:

When using the "kgdbts=" you only choose one of the following core
test types:
A = Run all the core tests silently
V1 = Run all the core tests with minimal output
V2 = Run all the core tests in debug mode

You can also specify optional tests:
N## = Go to sleep with interrupts of for ## seconds
      to test the HW NMI watchdog
F## = Break at do_fork for ## iterations
S## = Break at sys_open for ## iterations

NOTE: that the do_fork and sys_open tests are mutually exclusive.

To invoke the kgdb test suite from boot you use a kernel start
argument as follows:
	kgdbts=V1 kgdbwait
Or if you wanted to perform the NMI test for 6 seconds and do_fork
test for 100 forks, you could use:
	kgdbts=V1N6F100 kgdbwait

The test suite can also be invoked at run time with:
echo kgdbts=V1N6F100 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts
Or as another example:
echo kgdbts=V2 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts

When developing a new kgdb arch specific implementation or
using these tests for the purpose of regression testing,
several invocations are required.

1) Boot with the test suite enabled by using the kernel arguments
      "kgdbts=V1F100 kgdbwait"
   ## If kgdb arch specific implementation has NMI use
      "kgdbts=V1N6F100

2) After the system boot run the basic test.
echo kgdbts=V1 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts

3) Run the concurrency tests.  It is best to use n+1
   while loops where n is the number of cpus you have
   in your system.  The example below uses only two
   loops.

## This tests break points on sys_open
while [ 1 ] ; do find / > /dev/null 2>&1 ; done &
while [ 1 ] ; do find / > /dev/null 2>&1 ; done &
echo kgdbts=V1S10000 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts
fg # and hit control-c
fg # and hit control-c
## This tests break points on do_fork
while [ 1 ] ; do date > /dev/null ; done &
while [ 1 ] ; do date > /dev/null ; done &
echo kgdbts=V1F1000 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts
fg # and hit control-c

  flush_cache_range(), else on arch=ARM it will cause a fatal
  fault.

- Breakpoints should only be restored if they are in the BP_ACTIVE
  state.

- Fix a typo in comments to "kgdb_register_io_module"

x86 kgdb fixes:
- Fix the x86 arch handler such that on a kill or detach that the
  appropriate cleanup on the single stepping flags gets run.

- Add in the DIE_NMIWATCHDOG call for x86_64

- Touch the nmi watchdog before returning the system to normal
  operation after performing any kind of kgdb operation, else
  the possibility exists to trigger the watchdog.

b4b8ac524d kgdb: fix optional arch functions and probe_kernel_*
Fix two regressions dealing with the kgdb core.

1) kgdb_skipexception and kgdb_post_primary_code are optional
functions that are only required on archs that need special exception
fixups.

2) The kernel address space scope must be set on any probe_kernel_*
function or archs such as ARCH=arm will not allow access to the kernel
memory space.  As an example, it is required to allow the full kernel
address space is when you the kernel debugger to inspect a system
call.

64e9ee3095 kgdb: add x86 HW breakpoints
Add HW breakpoints into the arch specific portion of x86 kgdb.  In the
current x86 kernel.org kernels HW breakpoints are changed out in lazy
fashion because there is no infrastructure around changing them when
changing to a kernel task or entering the kernel mode via a system
call.  This lazy approach means that if a user process uses HW
breakpoints the kgdb will loose out.  This is an acceptable trade off
because the developer debugging the kernel is assumed to know what is
going on system wide and would be aware of this trade off.

There is a minor bug fix to the kgdb core so as to correctly call the
hw breakpoint functions with a valid value from the enum.

There is also a minor change to the x86_64 startup code when using
early HW breakpoints.  When the debugger is connected, the cpu startup
code must not zero out the HW breakpoint registers or you cannot hit
the breakpoints you are interested in, in the first place.

d359752407 kgdb: fix NMI hangs
This patch fixes the hang regression with kgdb when the NMI interrupt
comes in while the master core is returning from an exception.

Adjust the NMI logic such that KGDB will not stop NMI exceptions from
occurring by in general returning NOTIFY_DONE.  It is not possible to
distinguish the debug NMI sync vs the normal NMI apic interrupt so
kgdb needs to catch the unknown NMI if it the debugger was previously
active on one of the cpus.

The shutdown status flag set to "0xA", corresponds to "JMP double word
request without INT init".

This JMP at reboot time is at an unintended location. And results in
Triple faults in our case.
Though this error at reboot can be safely ignored in a VM environment,
am not sure what the effect would be on a physical system. May be it
will result in a triple fault and an eventual hardware reset thus
masking this BUG in the kernel.

This fix just makes sure that we reset that status flag after
initialization is done.

Fix paranoia about using BIOS quickboot mechanism.

Make sure that we clear the "shutdown status flag" in the CMOS register
after each CPU is brought up.  This fixes a problem where the "shutdown
status flag" may remain set when a CPU is brought up after booting.
