proc/sysctl: add shared variables for range check

2019-07-19T00:08:07+00:00

In the sysctl code the proc_dointvec_minmax() function is often used to
validate the user supplied value between an allowed range.  This
function uses the extra1 and extra2 members from struct ctl_table as
minimum and maximum allowed value.

On sysctl handler declaration, in every source file there are some
readonly variables containing just an integer which address is assigned
to the extra1 and extra2 members, so the sysctl range is enforced.

The special values 0, 1 and INT_MAX are very often used as range
boundary, leading duplication of variables like zero=0, one=1,
int_max=INT_MAX in different source files:

    $ git grep -E '\.extra[12].*&(zero|one|int_max)' |wc -l
    248

Add a const int array containing the most commonly used values, some
macros to refer more easily to the correct array member, and use them
instead of creating a local one for every object file.

This is the bloat-o-meter output comparing the old and new binary
compiled with the default Fedora config:

memcg, fsnotify: no oom-kill for remote memcg charging

2019-07-12T18:05:43+00:00

Commit d46eb14b735b ("fs: fsnotify: account fsnotify metadata to
kmemcg") added remote memcg charging for fanotify and inotify event
objects.  The aim was to charge the memory to the listener who is
interested in the events but without triggering the OOM killer.
Otherwise there would be security concerns for the listener.

At the time, oom-kill trigger was not in the charging path.  A parallel
work added the oom-kill back to charging path i.e.  commit 29ef680ae7c2
("memcg, oom: move out_of_memory back to the charge path").  So to not
trigger oom-killer in the remote memcg, explicitly add
__GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL to the fanotigy and inotify event allocations.

fsnotify: get rid of fsnotify_nameremove()

2019-06-20T12:47:54+00:00

For all callers of fsnotify_{unlink,rmdir}(), we made sure that d_parent
and d_name are stable.  Therefore, fsnotify_{unlink,rmdir}() do not need
the safety measures in fsnotify_nameremove() to stabilize parent and name.
We can now simplify those hooks and get rid of fsnotify_nameremove().

fanotify: update connector fsid cache on add mark

2019-06-19T13:53:58+00:00

When implementing connector fsid cache, we only initialized the cache
when the first mark added to object was added by FAN_REPORT_FID group.
We forgot to update conn->fsid when the second mark is added by
FAN_REPORT_FID group to an already attached connector without fsid
cache.

fanotify: Disallow permission events for proc filesystem

2019-05-28T16:10:07+00:00

Proc filesystem has special locking rules for various files. Thus
fanotify which opens files on event delivery can easily deadlock
against another process that waits for fanotify permission event to be
handled. Since permission events on /proc have doubtful value anyway,
just disallow them.
