proc: fix /proc/net/* after setns(2)

2019-02-01T23:46:22+00:00

/proc entries under /proc/net/* can't be cached into dcache because
setns(2) can change current net namespace.

proc: smaller readlock section in readdir("/proc")

2018-08-22T17:52:45+00:00

Readdir context is thread local, so ->pos is thread local,
move it out of readlock.

proc: add proc_seq_release

2018-06-28T00:44:38+00:00

kmemleak reported some memory leak on reading proc files. After adding
some debug lines, find that proc_seq_fops is using seq_release as
release handler, which won't handle the free of 'private' field of
seq_file, while in fact the open handler proc_seq_open could create
the private data with __seq_open_private when state_size is greater
than zero. So after reading files created with proc_create_seq_private,
such as /proc/timer_list and /proc/vmallocinfo, the private mem of a
seq_file is not freed. Fix it by adding the paired proc_seq_release
as the default release handler of proc_seq_ops instead of seq_release.

proc: Make inline name size calculation automatic

2018-06-15T04:48:57+00:00

Make calculation of the size of the inline name in struct proc_dir_entry
automatic, rather than having to manually encode the numbers and failing to
allow for lockdep.

Require a minimum inline name size of 33+1 to allow for names that look
like two hex numbers with a dash between.

proc: Add a way to make network proc files writable

2018-05-18T10:46:15+00:00

Provide two extra functions, proc_create_net_data_write() and
proc_create_net_single_write() that act like their non-write versions but
also set a write method in the proc_dir_entry struct.

An internal simple write function is provided that will copy its buffer and
hand it to the pde->write() method if available (or give an error if not).
The buffer may be modified by the write method.
