commit 041d7b98ffe59c59fdd639931dea7d74f9aa9a59 upstream.

A regression was caused by commit 780a7654cee8:
	 audit: Make testing for a valid loginuid explicit.
(which in turn attempted to fix a regression caused by e1760bd)

When audit_krule_to_data() fills in the rules to get a listing, there was a
missing clause to convert back from AUDIT_LOGINUID_SET to AUDIT_LOGINUID.

This broke userspace by not returning the same information that was sent and
expected.

The rule:
	auditctl -a exit,never -F auid=-1
gives:
	auditctl -l
		LIST_RULES: exit,never f24=0 syscall=all
when it should give:
		LIST_RULES: exit,never auid=-1 (0xffffffff) syscall=all

Tag it so that it is reported the same way it was set.  Create a new
private flags audit_krule field (pflags) to store it that won't interact with
the public one from the API.

<title>audit: don't attempt to lookup PIDs when changing PID filtering audit rules</title>

commit 3640dcfa4fd00cd91d88bb86250bdb496f7070c0 upstream.

Commit f1dc4867 ("audit: anchor all pid references in the initial pid
namespace") introduced a find_vpid() call when adding/removing audit
rules with PID/PPID filters; unfortunately this is problematic as
find_vpid() only works if there is a task with the associated PID
alive on the system.  The following commands demonstrate a simple
reproducer.

	# auditctl -D
	# auditctl -l
	# autrace /bin/true
	# auditctl -l

This patch resolves the problem by simply using the PID provided by
the user without any additional validation, e.g. no calls to check to
see if the task/PID exists.

For some sort of legacy support audit_rule is a subset of (and first
entry in) audit_rule_data.  We don't actually need or use audit_rule.
We just do a cast from one to the other for no gain what so ever.  Stop
the crazy casting.

In perverse cases of file descriptor passing the current network

that socket may differ.  Therefore use the network namespace of the
appropiate socket to ensure replies always go to the appropiate

While reading through 3.14-rc1 I found a pretty siginficant mishandling
of network namespaces in the recent audit changes.

In struct audit_netlink_list and audit_reply add a reference to the
network namespace of the caller and remove the userspace pid of the
caller.  This cleanly remembers the callers network namespace, and
removes a huge class of races and nasty failure modes that can occur
when attempting to relook up the callers network namespace from a pid_t
(including the caller's network namespace changing, pid wraparound, and
the pid simply not being present).
