<content type='text'>
Once a key's reference count has been reduced to 0, the garbage collector
thread may destroy it at any time and so key_put() is not allowed to touch
the key after that point.  The most key_put() is normally allowed to do is
to touch key_gc_work as that's a static global variable.

However, in an effort to speed up the reclamation of quota, this is now
done in key_put() once the key's usage is reduced to 0 - but now the code
is looking at the key after the deadline, which is forbidden.

Fix this by using a flag to indicate that a key can be gc'd now rather than
looking at the key's refcount in the garbage collector.

Fixes: 9578e327b2b4 ("keys: update key quotas in key_put()")

Use sk_is_tcp() to check if socket is TCP in bind(2) and connect(2)
hooks.

SMC, MPTCP, SCTP protocols are currently restricted by TCP access
rights.  The purpose of TCP access rights is to provide control over
ports that can be used by userland to establish a TCP connection.
Therefore, it is incorrect to deny bind(2) and connect(2) requests for a
socket of another protocol.

However, SMC, MPTCP and RDS implementations use TCP internal sockets to
establish communication or even to exchange packets over a TCP
connection [1]. Landlock rules that configure bind(2) and connect(2)
usage for TCP sockets should not cover requests for sockets of such
protocols. These protocols have different set of security issues and
security properties, therefore, it is necessary to provide the userland
with the ability to distinguish between them (eg. [2]).

Control over TCP connection used by other protocols can be achieved with
upcoming support of socket creation control [3].

<content type='text'>
Commit 0d73a55208e9 ("ima: re-introduce own integrity cache lock")
mistakenly reverted the performance improvement introduced in commit
42a4c603198f0 ("ima: fix ima_inode_post_setattr"). The unused bit mask was
subsequently removed by commit 11c60f23ed13 ("integrity: Remove unused
macro IMA_ACTION_RULE_FLAGS").

Restore the performance improvement by introducing the new mask
IMA_NONACTION_RULE_FLAGS, equal to IMA_NONACTION_FLAGS without
IMA_NEW_FILE, which is not a rule-specific flag.

Finally, reset IMA_NONACTION_RULE_FLAGS instead of IMA_NONACTION_FLAGS in
process_measurement(), if the IMA_CHANGE_ATTR atomic flag is set (after
file metadata modification).

With this patch, new files for which metadata were modified while they are
still open, can be reopened before the last file close (when security.ima
is written), since the IMA_NEW_FILE flag is not cleared anymore. Otherwise,
appraisal fails because security.ima is missing (files with IMA_NEW_FILE
set are an exception).

Commit 08ae2487b202 ("tomoyo: automatically use patterns for several

with \$ pattern. But it turned out that we need to also replace $TID part
and $FD part to make this functionality useful for e.g. /bin/lsof .

<title>treewide: const qualify ctl_tables where applicable</title>

<id>urn:sha1:1751f872cc97f992ed5c4c72c55588db1f0021e1</id>
<content type='text'>
Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for
watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls,
loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net,
drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a
registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or
modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function.

Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of
proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata.
This is made possible after commit 78eb4ea25cd5 ("sysctl: treewide:
constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers") constified all the
proc_handlers.

Created this by running an spatch followed by a sed command:
Spatch:
