Now that we aren't so rigid about the length of the key being passed
in, we need to be a bit more rigorous about checking the length of
the actual data against the claimed length (a'la num_subauths field).
Check for the case where userspace sends us a seemingly valid key
with a num_subauths field that goes beyond the end of the array. If
that happens, return -EIO and invalidate the key.
Also change the other places where we check for malformed keys in this
code to invalidate the key as well.

The cifs.idmap keytype always allocates memory to hold the payload from
userspace. In the common case where we're translating a SID to a UID or
GID, we're allocating memory to hold something that's less than or equal
to the size of a pointer.
When the payload is the same size as a pointer or smaller, just store
it in the payload.value union member instead. That saves us an extra
allocation on the sid_to_id upcall.
Note that we have to take extra care to check the datalen when we
go to dereference the .data pointer in the union, but the callers
now check that as a matter of course anyway.

The cifs.idmap handling code currently causes the kernel to cache the
data from userspace twice. It first looks in a rbtree to see if there is
a matching entry for the given id. If there isn't then it calls
request_key which then checks its cache and then calls out to userland
if it doesn't have one. If the userland program establishes a mapping
and downcalls with that info, it then gets cached in the keyring and in
this rbtree.
Aside from the double memory usage and the performance penalty in doing
all of these extra copies, there are some nasty bugs in here too. The
code declares four rbtrees and spinlocks to protect them, but only seems
to use two of them. The upshot is that the same tree is used to hold
(eg) uid:sid and sid:uid mappings. The comparitors aren't equipped to
deal with that.
I think we'd be best off to remove a layer of caching in this code. If
this was originally done for performance reasons, then that really seems
like a premature optimization.
This patch does that -- it removes the rbtrees and the locks that
protect them and simply has the code do a request_key call on each call
into sid_to_id and id_to_sid. This greatly simplifies this code and
should roughly halve the memory utilization from using the idmapping
code.

We were checking incorrectly if signatures were required to be sent,
so were always sending signatures after the initial session establishment.
For SMB3 mounts (vers=3.0) this was a problem because we were putting
SMB2 signatures in SMB3 requests which would cause access denied
on mount (the tree connection would fail).
This might also be worth considering for stable (for 3.7), as the
error message on mount (access denied) is confusing to users and
there is no workaround if the server is configured to only
support smb3.0. I am ok either way.

Otherwise, "ls -l" will simply show the ownership of the files as

One possibility to make it suck less would be to somehow proactively

The format specifiers are for signed values, but these are unsigned.
Given that '-' is a delimiter between fields, I don't think you'd get
what you'd expect if you got a value here that would overflow the sign
bit.
The version and authority fields are 8 bit values so use a "hh" length
modifier there. The subauths are 32 bit values, so there's no need to
use a "l" length modifier there.

We had planned to upgrade to ntlmv2 security a few releases ago,
and have been warning users in dmesg on mount about the impending
upgrade, but had to make a change (to use nltmssp with ntlmv2) due
to testing issues with some non-Windows, non-Samba servers.
The approach in this patch is simpler than earlier patches,
and changes the default authentication mechanism to ntlmv2
password hashes (encapsulated in ntlmssp) from ntlm (ntlm is
too weak for current use and ntlmv2 has been broadly
supported for many, many years).

Commit eddb079deb4 created a regression in the writepages codepath.
Previously, whenever it needed to check the size of the file, it did so
by consulting the inode->i_size field directly. With that patch, the
i_size was fetched once on entry into the writepages code and that value
was used henceforth.
If the file is changing size though (for instance, if someone is writing
to it or has truncated it), then that value is likely to be wrong. This
can lead to data corruption. Pages past the EOF at the time that the
writepages call was issued may be silently dropped and ignored because
cifs_writepages wrongly assumes that the file must have been truncated
in the interim.
Fix cifs_writepages to properly fetch the size from the inode->i_size
field instead to properly account for this possibility.

The userspace cifs.idmap program generally works with the wbclient libs
to generate binary SIDs in userspace. That program defines the struct
that holds these values as having a max of 15 subauthorities. The kernel
idmapping code however limits that value to 5.
When the kernel copies those values around though, it doesn't sanity
check the num_subauths value handed back from userspace or from the
server. It's possible therefore for userspace to hand us back a bogus
num_subauths value (or one that's valid, but greater than 5) that could
cause the kernel to walk off the end of the cifs_sid->sub_auths array.
Fix this by defining a new routine for copying sids and using that in
all of the places that copy it. If we end up with a sid that's longer
than expected then this approach will just lop off the "extra" subauths,
but that's basically what the code does today already. Better approaches
might be to fix this code to reject SIDs with >5 subauths, or fix it
to handle the subauths array dynamically.
At the same time, change the kernel to check the length of the data
returned by userspace. If it's shorter than struct cifs_sid, reject it
and return -EIO. If that happens we'll end up with fields that are
basically uninitialized.
Long term, it might make sense to redefine cifs_sid using a flexarray at
the end, to allow for variable-length subauth lists, and teach the code
to handle the case where the subauths array being passed in from
userspace is shorter than 5 elements.
Note too, that I don't consider this a security issue since you'd need
a compromised cifs.idmap program. If you have that, you can do all sorts
of nefarious stuff. Still, this is probably reasonable for stable.

Give the key type the opportunity to preparse the payload prior to the
instantiation and update routines being called. This is done with the
provision of two new key type operations:
int (*preparse)(struct key_preparsed_payload *prep);
void (*free_preparse)(struct key_preparsed_payload *prep);
If the first operation is present, then it is called before key creation (in
the add/update case) or before the key semaphore is taken (in the update and
instantiate cases). The second operation is called to clean up if the first
was called.
preparse() is given the opportunity to fill in the following structure:
struct key_preparsed_payload {
char *description;
void *type_data[2];
void *payload;
const void *data;
size_t datalen;
size_t quotalen;
};
Before the preparser is called, the first three fields will have been cleared,
the payload pointer and size will be stored in data and datalen and the default
quota size from the key_type struct will be stored into quotalen.
The preparser may parse the payload in any way it likes and may store data in
the type_data[] and payload fields for use by the instantiate() and update()
ops.
The preparser may also propose a description for the key by attaching it as a
string to the description field. This can be used by passing a NULL or ""
description to the add_key() system call or the key_create_or_update()
function. This cannot work with request_key() as that required the description
to tell the upcall about the key to be created.
This, for example permits keys that store PGP public keys to generate their own
name from the user ID and public key fingerprint in the key.
The instantiate() and update() operations are then modified to look like this:
int (*instantiate)(struct key *key, struct key_preparsed_payload *prep);
int (*update)(struct key *key, struct key_preparsed_payload *prep);
and the new payload data is passed in *prep, whether or not it was preparsed.

Pull vfs update from Al Viro:
- big one - consolidation of descriptor-related logics; almost all of
that is moved to fs/file.c
(BTW, I'm seriously tempted to rename the result to fd.c. As it is,
we have a situation when file_table.c is about handling of struct
file and file.c is about handling of descriptor tables; the reasons
are historical - file_table.c used to be about a static array of
struct file we used to have way back).
A lot of stray ends got cleaned up and converted to saner primitives,
disgusting mess in android/binder.c is still disgusting, but at least
doesn't poke so much in descriptor table guts anymore. A bunch of
relatively minor races got fixed in process, plus an ext4 struct file
leak.
- related thing - fget_light() partially unuglified; see fdget() in
there (and yes, it generates the code as good as we used to have).
- also related - bits of Cyrill's procfs stuff that got entangled into
that work; _not_ all of it, just the initial move to fs/proc/fd.c and
switch of fdinfo to seq_file.
- Alex's fs/coredump.c spiltoff - the same story, had been easier to
take that commit than mess with conflicts. The rest is a separate
pile, this was just a mechanical code movement.
- a few misc patches all over the place. Not all for this cycle,
there'll be more (and quite a few currently sit in akpm's tree)."
Fix up trivial conflicts in the android binder driver, and some fairly
simple conflicts due to two different changes to the sock_alloc_file()
interface ("take descriptor handling from sock_alloc_file() to callers"
vs "net: Providing protocol type via system.sockprotoname xattr of

There's no reason to call rcu_barrier() on every
deactivate_locked_super(). We only need to make sure that all delayed rcu
free inodes are flushed before we destroy related cache.
Removing rcu_barrier() from deactivate_locked_super() affects some fast
paths. E.g. on my machine exit_group() of a last process in IPC
namespace takes 0.07538s. rcu_barrier() takes 0.05188s of that time.
