* [PATCH -mm 1/2] umh && creds: convert call_usermodehelper_keys() to use subprocess_info->init()

call_usermodehelper_keys() uses call_usermodehelper_setkeys() to change
subprocess_info->cred in advance. Now that we have info->init() we can
change this code to set tgcred->session_keyring in context of execing
kernel thread.

Note: since currently call_usermodehelper_keys() is never called with
UMH_NO_WAIT, umh_keys_cleanup() is not really needed, we could just move
key_get() from call_usermodehelper_keys() to umh_keys_init().

Compile tested.

Ummmm....  What gives you that idea?

You may be sharing init_cred...

You need to create, modify and commit a new set of creds.

How? Without CLONE_THREAD copy_creds() always creates the new
struct cred for the child?

Okay, that's a good point.

In which case, you should be calling install_session_keyring_to_cred(), just
so that the credentials installation is always done by the same piece of code.

Changes:

	1/2: do not change ->session_keyring by hand, use
	     install_session_keyring_to_cred() helper as David suggested.

	2/2: unchanged


Andrew, this is on top of

	kmod-replace-call_usermodehelper_pipe-with-use-of-umh-init-function-and-resolve-limit.patch

plus trivial

	"[PATCH -mm] kmod-replace-call_usermodehelper_pipe-with-use-of-umh-init-function- and-resolve-limit.cleanup"
	http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=126711062108298

cleanup.

Oleg.

Now that nobody ever changes subprocess_info->cred we can kill this
member and related code. ____call_usermodehelper() always runs in the
context of freshly forked kernel thread, it has the proper ->cred
copied from its parent kthread, keventd.

You should get rid of the inline there.  I think it's okay otherwise.

OK, please find v3 below.

(Neil, I retained your ack, hopefully you won't object...)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[PATCH v3 -mm 1/2] umh && creds: convert call_usermodehelper_keys() to use subprocess_info->init()

call_usermodehelper_keys() uses call_usermodehelper_setkeys() to change
subprocess_info->cred in advance. Now that we have info->init() we can
change this code to set tgcred->session_keyring in context of execing
kernel thread.

Note: since currently call_usermodehelper_keys() is never called with
UMH_NO_WAIT, call_usermodehelper_keys()->key_get() and umh_keys_cleanup()
are not really needed, we could rely on install_session_keyring_to_cred()
which does key_get() on success.

Compile tested.

I'm not going to be able to test it before I get back from skiing in a week's
time, but it looks ackable otherwise.

It can be tested by doing something like this:

	[root@andromeda ~]# keyctl request2 user debug:a b @s
	102880396
	[root@andromeda ~]# keyctl show
	Session Keyring
	       -3 --alswrv      0     0  keyring: _ses
	404996112 --alswrv      0    -1   \_ keyring: _uid.0
	102880396 --alswrv      0     0   \_ user: debug:a
	[root@andromeda ~]# keyctl print 102880396
	Debug b

On a system with the keyutils package installed.

David

Thanks David.

Finally I reserved the machine for the testing,

	[root@hp-dl360-01 ~]# keyctl request2 user debug:a b @s
	623133085
	[root@hp-dl360-01 ~]# keyctl show
	Session Keyring
	       -3 --alswrv      0     0  keyring: _ses
	845914766 --alswrv      0    -1   \_ keyring: _uid.0
	623133085 --alswrv      0     0   \_ user: debug:a
	[root@hp-dl360-01 ~]# keyctl print 623133085
	Debug b

Hopefully this all is right.

Oleg.

(on top of kmod-replace-call_usermodehelper_pipe-with-use-of-umh-init-function-and-resolve-limit.patch)

call_usermodehelper_keys() uses call_usermodehelper_setkeys() to change
subprocess_info->cred in advance. Now that we have info->init() we can
change this code to set tgcred->session_keyring in context of execing
kernel thread.

Note: since currently call_usermodehelper_keys() is never called with
UMH_NO_WAIT, call_usermodehelper_keys()->key_get() and umh_keys_cleanup()
are not really needed, we could rely on install_session_keyring_to_cred()
which does key_get() on success.

Now that nobody ever changes subprocess_info->cred we can kill this
member and related code. ____call_usermodehelper() always runs in the
context of freshly forked kernel thread, it has the proper ->cred
copied from its parent kthread, keventd.
