Eric W. Biederman d79d792ef9 net: Allow xfrm_user_net_exit to batch efficiently.
xfrm.nlsk is provided by the xfrm_user module and is access via rcu from
other parts of the xfrm code.  Add xfrm.nlsk_stash a copy of xfrm.nlsk that
will never be set to NULL.  This allows the synchronize_net and
netlink_kernel_release to be deferred until a whole batch of xfrm.nlsk sockets
have been set to NULL.

Martin Willi 4447bb33f0 xfrm: Store aalg in xfrm_state with a user specified truncation length
Adding a xfrm_state requires an authentication algorithm specified
either as xfrm_algo or as xfrm_algo_auth with a specific truncation
length. For compatibility, both attributes are dumped to userspace,
and we also accept both attributes, but prefer the new syntax.

If no truncation length is specified, or the authentication algorithm
is specified using xfrm_algo, the truncation length from the algorithm
description in the kernel is used.

Herbert Xu 12a169e7d8 ipsec: Put dumpers on the dump list
Herbert Xu came up with the idea and the original patch to make
xfrm_state dump list contain also dumpers:

As it is we go to extraordinary lengths to ensure that states
don't go away while dumpers go to sleep.  It's much easier if
we just put the dumpers themselves on the list since they can't
go away while they're going.

I've also changed the order of addition on new states to prevent
a never-ending dump.

Timo Teräs improved the patch to apply cleanly to latest tree,
modified iteration code to be more readable by using a common
struct for entries in the list, implemented the same idea for
xfrm_policy dumping and moved the af_key specific "last" entry
caching to af_key.

Herbert Xu c5d18e984a [IPSEC]: Fix catch-22 with algorithm IDs above 31
As it stands it's impossible to use any authentication algorithms
with an ID above 31 portably.  It just happens to work on x86 but
fails miserably on ppc64.

The reason is that we're using a bit mask to check the algorithm
ID but the mask is only 32 bits wide.

After looking at how this is used in the field, I have concluded
that in the long term we should phase out state matching by IDs
because this is made superfluous by the reqid feature.  For current
applications, the best solution IMHO is to allow all algorithms when
the bit masks are all ~0.

The following patch does exactly that.

This bug was identified by IBM when testing on the ppc64 platform
using the NULL authentication algorithm which has an ID of 251.

Herbert Xu 8053fc3de7 [IPSEC]: Temporarily remove locks around copying of non-atomic fields
The change 050f009e16

	[IPSEC]: Lock state when copying non-atomic fields to user-space

caused a regression.

Ingo Molnar reports that it causes a potential dead-lock found by the
lock validator as it tries to take x->lock within xfrm_state_lock while
numerous other sites take the locks in opposite order.

For 2.6.24, the best fix is to simply remove the added locks as that puts
us back in the same state as we've been in for years.  For later kernels
a proper fix would be to reverse the locking order for every xfrm state
user such that if x->lock is taken together with xfrm_state_lock then
it is to be taken within it.

Denis V. Lunev cd40b7d398 [NET]: make netlink user -> kernel interface synchronious
This patch make processing netlink user -> kernel messages synchronious.
This change was inspired by the talk with Alexey Kuznetsov about current
netlink messages processing. He says that he was badly wrong when introduced 
asynchronious user -> kernel communication.

The call netlink_unicast is the only path to send message to the kernel
netlink socket. But, unfortunately, it is also used to send data to the
user.

Before this change the user message has been attached to the socket queue
and sk->sk_data_ready was called. The process has been blocked until all
pending messages were processed. The bad thing is that this processing
may occur in the arbitrary process context.

This patch changes nlk->data_ready callback to get 1 skb and force packet
processing right in the netlink_unicast.

Kernel -> user path in netlink_unicast remains untouched.

EINTR processing for in netlink_run_queue was changed. It forces rtnl_lock
drop, but the process remains in the cycle until the message will be fully
processed. So, there is no need to use this kludges now.

Herbert Xu 68325d3b12 [XFRM] user: Move attribute copying code into copy_to_user_state_extra
Here's a good example of code duplication leading to code rot.  The
notification patch did its own netlink message creation for xfrm states.
It duplicated code that was already in dump_one_state.  Guess what, the
next time (and the time after) when someone updated dump_one_state the
notification path got zilch.

This patch moves that code from dump_one_state to copy_to_user_state_extra
and uses it in xfrm_notify_sa too.  Unfortunately whoever updates this
still needs to update xfrm_sa_len since the notification path wants to
know the exact size for allocation.

At least I've added a comment saying so and if someone still forgest, we'll
have a WARN_ON telling us so.

I also changed the security size calculation to use xfrm_user_sec_ctx since
that's what we actually put into the skb.  However it makes no practical
difference since it has the same size as xfrm_sec_ctx.

Herbert Xu 658b219e93 [IPSEC]: Move common code into xfrm_alloc_spi
This patch moves some common code that conceptually belongs to the xfrm core
from af_key/xfrm_user into xfrm_alloc_spi.

In particular, the spin lock on the state is now taken inside xfrm_alloc_spi.
Previously it also protected the construction of the response PF_KEY/XFRM
messages to user-space.  This is inconsistent as other identical constructions
are not protected by the state lock.  This is bad because they in fact should
be protected but only in certain spots (so as not to hold the lock for too
long which may cause packet drops).

The SPI byte order conversion has also been moved.

Herbert Xu 0cfad07555 [NETLINK]: Avoid pointer in netlink_run_queue
I was looking at Patrick's fix to inet_diag and it occured
to me that we're using a pointer argument to return values
unnecessarily in netlink_run_queue.  Changing it to return
the value will allow the compiler to generate better code
since the value won't have to be memory-backed.

Eric W. Biederman b4b510290b [NET]: Support multiple network namespaces with netlink
Each netlink socket will live in exactly one network namespace,
this includes the controlling kernel sockets.

This patch updates all of the existing netlink protocols
to only support the initial network namespace.  Request
by clients in other namespaces will get -ECONREFUSED.
As they would if the kernel did not have the support for
that netlink protocol compiled in.

As each netlink protocol is updated to be multiple network
namespace safe it can register multiple kernel sockets
to acquire a presence in the rest of the network namespaces.

The implementation in af_netlink is a simple filter implementation
at hash table insertion and hash table look up time.

Joy Latten ab5f5e8b14 [XFRM]: xfrm audit calls
This patch modifies the current ipsec audit layer
by breaking it up into purpose driven audit calls.

So far, the only audit calls made are when add/delete
an SA/policy. It had been discussed to give each
key manager it's own calls to do this, but I found
there to be much redundnacy since they did the exact
same things, except for how they got auid and sid, so I
combined them. The below audit calls can be made by any
key manager. Hopefully, this is ok.
