2011-04-04capabilites: allow the application of capability limits to usermode helpersEric Paris
There is no way to limit the capabilities of usermodehelpers. This problem reared its head recently when someone complained that any user with cap_net_admin was able to load arbitrary kernel modules, even though the user didn't have cap_sys_module. The reason is because the actual load is done by a usermode helper and those always have the full cap set. This patch addes new sysctls which allow us to bound the permissions of usermode helpers. /proc/sys/kernel/usermodehelper/bset /proc/sys/kernel/usermodehelper/inheritable You must have CAP_SYS_MODULE and CAP_SETPCAP to change these (changes are &= ONLY). When the kernel launches a usermodehelper it will do so with these as the bset and pI. -v2: make globals static create spinlock to protect globals -v3: require both CAP_SETPCAP and CAP_SYS_MODULE -v4: fix the typo s/CAP_SET_PCAP/CAP_SETPCAP/ because I didn't commit Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> No-objection-from: Serge E.

2011-03-29fs: don't use igrab() while holding i_lockDave Chinner
Fix the incorrect use of igrab() inside the i_lock in NFS and Ceph‥ If we are already holding the i_lock, we have a reference to the inode so we can safely use ihold() to gain an extra reference. This avoids hangs due to lock recursion on the i_lock now that the inode_lock is gone and igrab() uses the i_lock itself.
