syslog: use defined constants instead of raw numbers

2010-02-04T03:20:41Z

Right now the syslog "type" action are just raw numbers which makes the source difficult to follow. This patch replaces the raw numbers with defined constants for some level of sanity. Signed-off-by: Kees Cook Acked-by: John Johansen Acked-by: Serge Hallyn Signed-off-by: James Morris

syslog: distinguish between /proc/kmsg and syscalls

2010-02-04T03:20:12Z

This allows the LSM to distinguish between syslog functions originating from /proc/kmsg access and direct syscalls. By default, the commoncaps will now no longer require CAP_SYS_ADMIN to read an opened /proc/kmsg file descriptor. For example the kernel syslog reader can now drop privileges after opening /proc/kmsg, instead of staying privileged with CAP_SYS_ADMIN. MAC systems that implement security_syslog have unchanged behavior. Signed-off-by: Kees Cook Acked-by: Serge Hallyn Acked-by: John Johansen Signed-off-by: James Morris

kmsg_dump: Dump on crash_kexec as well

2009-12-31T19:45:04Z

crash_kexec gets called before kmsg_dump(KMSG_DUMP_OOPS) if panic_on_oops is set, so the kernel log buffer is not stored for this case. This patch adds a KMSG_DUMP_KEXEC dump type which gets called when crash_kexec() is invoked. To avoid getting double dumps, the old KMSG_DUMP_PANIC is moved below crash_kexec(). The mtdoops driver is modified to handle KMSG_DUMP_KEXEC in the same way as a panic. Signed-off-by: KOSAKI Motohiro Acked-by: Simon Kagstrom Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse
