10:59 p.m.
This patchset has some important changes from the previous revision,
namely a fix from Al Viro (included in 2/5) that resolves a boot panic
on some systems as well as some smaller, less noteworthy fixes found
in the linux-next announcement thread from January 20th (refcount bump
in __audit_reusename() and a inode type in __audit_inode()).
This patchset still needs some additional testing to verify that the
audit code still functions properly (the minor fixes mentioned above)
and there is an additional patch from Al that should be included as
well, but I wanted to post this and push the series to the audit next
branch quickly since a number of folks were affected by the boot panic.

Noted memcpy() difference (I assume to avoid races).
It is more efficient to use memcpy if the string length is known.

New subject: [PATCH v2 2/5] fs: create proper filename objects using getname_kernel()
There are several areas in the kernel that create temporary filename
objects using the following pattern:
int func(const char *name)
{
struct filename *file = { .name = name };
...
return 0;
}
... which for the most part works okay, but it causes havoc within the
audit subsystem as the filename object does not persist beyond the
lifetime of the function. This patch converts all of these temporary
filename objects into proper filename objects using getname_kernel()
and putname() which ensure that the filename object persists until the
audit subsystem is finished with it.
Also, a special thanks to Al Viro, Guenter Roeck, and Sabrina Dubroca
for helping resolve a difficult kernel panic on boot related to a
use-after-free problem in kern_path_create(); the thread can be seen
at the link below:
* https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/1/20/710
This patch includes code that was either based on, or directly written
by Al in the above thread.

New subject: [PATCH v2 4/5] audit: fix filename matching in __audit_inode() and __audit_inode_child()
In all likelihood there were some subtle, and perhaps not so subtle,
bugs with filename matching in audit_inode() and audit_inode_child()
for some time, however, recent changes to the audit filename code have
definitely broken the filename matching code. The breakage could
result in duplicate filenames in the audit log and other odd audit
record entries. This patch fixes the filename matching code and
restores some sanity to the filename audit records.

New subject: [PATCH v2 5/5] audit: replace getname()/putname() hacks with reference counters
In order to ensure that filenames are not released before the audit
subsystem is done with the strings there are a number of hacks built
into the fs and audit subsystems around getname() and putname(). To
say these hacks are "ugly" would be kind.
This patch removes the filename hackery in favor of a more
conventional reference count based approach. The diffstat below tells
most of the story; lots of audit/fs specific code is replaced with a
traditional reference count based approach that is easily understood,
even by those not familiar with the audit and/or fs subsystems.

Noted change of bumping refcnt before passing back pointer to struct
filename.

This patchset still needs some additional testing to verify that the
audit code still functions properly (the minor fixes mentioned above)
and there is an additional patch from Al that should be included as
well, but I wanted to post this and push the series to the audit next

Hi Paul,
What is the baseline for this patch set ? Obviously -next won't work,
and it does not apply to mainline either.

Hi Paul,

FWIW, I've ported that on top of vfs.git#for-next; result is in
vfs.git#experimental. Paul, are you OK with that one?

OK, vfs.git#getname is it; it's in never-to-be-rebased mode and it's merged
into vfs.git#for-next (as of right now; HEAD is 9ee4c4). If you need to do
something on top of that stuff, pulling vfs.git#getname is safe.

Unfortunately, that thing was -rc2-based, leading to conflict with mainline
in kernel/auditsc.c. My fault, I hadn't realized that "audit: create private
file name copies when auditing inodes" in audit tree was, in fact, present in
mainline. vfs.git#getname2 is -rc3-based, same resulting kernel/auditsc.c as
in #getname. Please, use that. vfs.git#for-next merges from that one now,
so tomorrow -next should have no problems from vfs.git...

I have tested vfs.git#getname2 on top of Linux v3.19-rc5-184-gc4e00f1
(plus block-loopmq patchset) and it boots fine on Ubuntu/precise
amd64.
Just curious, where will this audit-filename-handling overhaul go through?
Through Paul's audit-next or Al's vfs-next tree?
AFAICS, a new linux-next will be available on Monday (2015-01-26).
I try to retest with this.

Great, thank you for the additional testing.

Al wanted to carry the patchset so that is where it lives now, you should see
it arrive in Linus' tree via the VFS tree.

FWIW, I've ported that on top of vfs.git#for-next; result is in
vfs.git#experimental. Paul, are you OK with that one?
I also tested that one. Works as expected.
Thanks,

Hi Paul,
What is the baseline for this patch set ? Obviously -next won't work,
and it does not apply to mainline either.
This patchset currently lives, along with one other unrelated patch, in the
audit next branch:
* git://git.infradead.org/users/pcmoore/audit
I'm currently testing these in combination with the patch Al posted last
night. Assuming all goes well I'll drop them from the audit next branch and
toss all six patches (these plus Al's) into another branch in case Al wants to
pull them for the VFS tree.

The version in the audit next tree works with my qemu microblaze test,
so feel free to add
