[S390] fix recursive locking on page_table_lock

Suzuki Poulose reported the following recursive locking bug on s390:

Here is the stack trace : (see Appendix I for more info)

  [<0000000000406ed6>] _spin_lock+0x52/0x94

  [<00000200001642b2>] 0x200001642b2

The page_table_lock is already acquired in __pmd_alloc (mm/memory.c) and
it tries to populate the pud/pgd with a new pmd allocated. If another
thread populates it before we get a chance, we free the pmd using
pmd_free().

On s390x, pmd_free(even pud_free ) is #defined to crst_table_free(),
which acquires the page_table_lock to protect the crst_table index updates.

Hence this ends up in a recursive locking of the page_table_lock.

The solution suggested by Dave Hansen is to use a new spin lock in the mmu
context to protect the access to the crst_list and the pgtable_list.

David P. Quigley [Wed, 9 Sep 2009 18:25:37 +0000 (14:25 -0400)]
sysfs: Add labeling support for sysfs

This patch adds a setxattr handler to the file, directory, and symlink
inode_operations structures for sysfs. The patch uses hooks introduced in the
previous patch to handle the getting and setting of security information for
the sysfs inodes. As was suggested by Eric Biederman the struct iattr in the
sysfs_dirent structure has been replaced by a structure which contains the
iattr, secdata and secdata length to allow the changes to persist in the event
that the inode representing the sysfs_dirent is evicted. Because sysfs only
stores this information when a change is made all the optional data is moved
into one dynamically allocated field.

This patch addresses an issue where SELinux was denying virtd access to the PCI
configuration entries in sysfs. The lack of setxattr handlers for sysfs
required that a single label be assigned to all entries in sysfs. Granting virtd
access to every entry in sysfs is not an acceptable solution so fine grained
labeling of sysfs is required such that individual entries can be labeled
appropriately.

LSM/SELinux: inode_{get,set,notify}secctx hooks to access LSM security context information.

This patch introduces three new hooks. The inode_getsecctx hook is used to get
all relevant information from an LSM about an inode. The inode_setsecctx is
used to set both the in-core and on-disk state for the inode based on a context
derived from inode_getsecctx.The final hook inode_notifysecctx will notify the
LSM of a change for the in-core state of the inode in question. These hooks are
for use in the labeled NFS code and addresses concerns of how to set security
on an inode in a multi-xattr LSM. For historical reasons Stephen Smalley's
explanation of the reason for these hooks is pasted below.

Quote Stephen Smalley

inode_setsecctx:  Change the security context of an inode.  Updates the
in core security context managed by the security module and invokes the
fs code as needed (via __vfs_setxattr_noperm) to update any backing
xattrs that represent the context.  Example usage:  NFS server invokes
this hook to change the security context in its incore inode and on the
backing file system to a value provided by the client on a SETATTR
operation.

inode_notifysecctx:  Notify the security module of what the security
context of an inode should be.  Initializes the incore security context
managed by the security module for this inode.  Example usage:  NFS
client invokes this hook to initialize the security context in its
incore inode to the value provided by the server for the file when the
server returned the file's attributes to the client.

Don't call down to the generic inode_permission() function just to

The generic inode_permission() code does things like checking MAY_WRITE

light pathname walk permission checks (we always do just MAY_EXEC, and

IB/mad: Fix possible lock-lock-timer deadlock

Lockdep reported a possible deadlock with cm_id_priv->lock,
mad_agent_priv->lock and mad_agent_priv->timed_work.timer; this
happens because the mad module does

cancel_delayed_work(&mad_agent_priv->timed_work);

while holding mad_agent_priv->lock.  cancel_delayed_work() internally
does del_timer_sync(&mad_agent_priv->timed_work.timer).

This can turn into a deadlock because mad_agent_priv->lock is taken
inside cm_id_priv->lock, so we can get the following set of contexts
that deadlock each other:

 A: holding cm_id_priv->lock, waiting for mad_agent_priv->lock
 B: holding mad_agent_priv->lock, waiting for del_timer_sync()
 C: interrupt during mad_agent_priv->timed_work.timer that takes
    cm_id_priv->lock

Fix this by using the new __cancel_delayed_work() interface (which
internally does del_timer() instead of del_timer_sync()) in all the
places where we are holding a lock.
