debugfs: convert gid= argument from decimal, not octal

2013-01-11T13:56:01Z

This patch technically breaks userspace, but I suspect that anyone who actually used this flag would have encountered this brokenness, declared it lunacy, and already sent a patch. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner Reviewed-by: Vasiliy Kulikov Acked-by: Kees Cook Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

fs/debugsfs: remove unnecessary inode->i_private initialization

Pull user namespace changes from Eric Biederman: "This is a mostly modest set of changes to enable basic user namespace support. This allows the code to code to compile with user namespaces enabled and removes the assumption there is only the initial user namespace. Everything is converted except for the most complex of the filesystems: autofs4, 9p, afs, ceph, cifs, coda, fuse, gfs2, ncpfs, nfs, ocfs2 and xfs as those patches need a bit more review. The strategy is to push kuid_t and kgid_t values are far down into subsystems and filesystems as reasonable. Leaving the make_kuid and from_kuid operations to happen at the edge of userspace, as the values come off the disk, and as the values come in from the network. Letting compile type incompatible compile errors (present when user namespaces are enabled) guide me to find the issues. The most tricky areas have been the places where we had an implicit union of uid and gid values and were storing them in an unsigned int. Those places were converted into explicit unions. I made certain to handle those places with simple trivial patches. Out of that work I discovered we have generic interfaces for storing quota by projid. I had never heard of the project identifiers before. Adding full user namespace support for project identifiers accounts for most of the code size growth in my git tree. Ultimately there will be work to relax privlige checks from "capable(FOO)" to "ns_capable(user_ns, FOO)" where it is safe allowing root in a user names to do those things that today we only forbid to non-root users because it will confuse suid root applications. While I was pushing kuid_t and kgid_t changes deep into the audit code I made a few other cleanups. I capitalized on the fact we process netlink messages in the context of the message sender. I removed usage of NETLINK_CRED, and started directly using current->tty. Some of these patches have also made it into maintainer trees, with no problems from identical code from different trees showing up in linux-next. After reading through all of this code I feel like I might be able to win a game of kernel trivial pursuit."

debugfs: more tightly restrict default mount mode

2012-08-27T20:42:02Z

Since the debugfs is mostly only used by root, make the default mount mode 0700. Most system owners do not need a more permissive value, but they can choose to weaken the restrictions via their fstab. Signed-off-by: Kees Cook Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
