<id>urn:sha1:8c3e34a4ff85142ca5dba3f18cbc2061899e2612</id>
<content type='text'>
Rename files matching net/rxrpc/ar-*.c to get rid of the "ar-" prefix.
This will aid splitting those files by making easier to come up with new
names.

Note that the not all files are simply renamed from ar-X.c to X.c.  The
following exceptions are made:

 (*) ar-call.c -&gt; call_object.c
     ar-ack.c -&gt; call_event.c

     call_object.c is going to contain the core of the call object
     handling.  Call event handling is all going to be in call_event.c.

 (*) ar-accept.c -&gt; call_accept.c

     Incoming call handling is going to be here.

 (*) ar-connection.c -&gt; conn_object.c
     ar-connevent.c -&gt; conn_event.c

     The former file is going to have the basic connection object handling,
     but there will likely be some differentiation between client
     connections and service connections in additional files later.  The
     latter file will have all the connection-level event handling.

 (*) ar-local.c -&gt; local_object.c

     This will have the local endpoint object handling code.  The local
     endpoint event handling code will later be split out into
     local_event.c.

 (*) ar-peer.c -&gt; peer_object.c

     This will have the peer endpoint object handling code.  Peer event
     handling code will be placed in peer_event.c (for the moment, there is
     none).

 (*) ar-error.c -&gt; peer_event.c

     This will become the peer event handling code, though for the moment
     it's actually driven from the local endpoint's perspective.

Note that I haven't renamed ar-transport.c to transport_object.c as the
intention is to delete it when the rxrpc_transport struct is excised.

The only file that actually has its contents changed is net/rxrpc/Makefile.

net/rxrpc/ar-internal.h will need its section marker comments updating, but
I'll do that in a separate patch to make it easier for git to follow the
history across the rename.  I may also want to rename ar-internal.h at some
point - but that would mean updating all the #includes and I'd rather do
that in a separate step.

Use the more common kernel logging style and reduce object size.

The logging message prefix changes from a mixture of
"RxRPC:" and "RXRPC:" to "af_rxrpc: ".

<title>KEYS: Add a facility to restrict new links into a keyring</title>
<updated>2016-04-11T21:37:37+00:00</updated>
<author>
<name>David Howells</name>
<email>dhowells@redhat.com</email>
</author>
<published>2016-04-06T15:14:24+00:00</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.rulkc.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=5ac7eace2d00eab5ae0e9fdee63e38aee6001f7c'/>
<id>urn:sha1:5ac7eace2d00eab5ae0e9fdee63e38aee6001f7c</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a facility whereby proposed new links to be added to a keyring can be
vetted, permitting them to be rejected if necessary.  This can be used to
block public keys from which the signature cannot be verified or for which
the signature verification fails.  It could also be used to provide
blacklisting.

This affects operations like add_key(), KEYCTL_LINK and KEYCTL_INSTANTIATE.

To this end:

 (1) A function pointer is added to the key struct that, if set, points to
     the vetting function.  This is called as:

	int (*restrict_link)(struct key *keyring,
			     const struct key_type *key_type,
			     unsigned long key_flags,
			     const union key_payload *key_payload),

     where 'keyring' will be the keyring being added to, key_type and
     key_payload will describe the key being added and key_flags[*] can be
     AND'ed with KEY_FLAG_TRUSTED.

     [*] This parameter will be removed in a later patch when
     	 KEY_FLAG_TRUSTED is removed.

     The function should return 0 to allow the link to take place or an
     error (typically -ENOKEY, -ENOPKG or -EKEYREJECTED) to reject the
     link.

     The pointer should not be set directly, but rather should be set
     through keyring_alloc().

     Note that if called during add_key(), preparse is called before this
     method, but a key isn't actually allocated until after this function
     is called.

 (2) KEY_ALLOC_BYPASS_RESTRICTION is added.  This can be passed to
     key_create_or_update() or key_instantiate_and_link() to bypass the
     restriction check.

 (3) KEY_FLAG_TRUSTED_ONLY is removed.  The entire contents of a keyring
     with this restriction emplaced can be considered 'trustworthy' by
     virtue of being in the keyring when that keyring is consulted.

 (4) key_alloc() and keyring_alloc() take an extra argument that will be
     used to set restrict_link in the new key.  This ensures that the
     pointer is set before the key is published, thus preventing a window
     of unrestrictedness.  Normally this argument will be NULL.

 (5) As a temporary affair, keyring_restrict_trusted_only() is added.  It
     should be passed to keyring_alloc() as the extra argument instead of
     setting KEY_FLAG_TRUSTED_ONLY on a keyring.  This will be replaced in
     a later patch with functions that look in the appropriate places for
     authoritative keys.

Merge the type-specific data with the payload data into one four-word chunk
as it seems pointless to keep them separate.

Use user_key_payload() for accessing the payloads of overloaded
user-defined keys.

<title>KEYS: Remove key_type::match in favour of overriding default by match_preparse</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c06cfb08b88dfbe13be44a69ae2fdc3a7c902d81</id>
<content type='text'>
A previous patch added a -&gt;match_preparse() method to the key type.  This is
allowed to override the function called by the iteration algorithm.
Therefore, we can just set a default that simply checks for an exact match of
the key description with the original criterion data and allow match_preparse
to override it as needed.

The key_type::match op is then redundant and can be removed, as can the
user_match() function.

 "Highlights:

   1) Steady transitioning of the BPF instructure to a generic spot so
      all kernel subsystems can make use of it, from Alexei Starovoitov.

   2) SFC driver supports busy polling, from Alexandre Rames.

   3) Take advantage of hash table in UDP multicast delivery, from David
      Held.

   4) Lighten locking, in particular by getting rid of the LRU lists, in
      inet frag handling.  From Florian Westphal.

   5) Add support for various RFC6458 control messages in SCTP, from
      Geir Ola Vaagland.

   6) Allow to filter bridge forwarding database dumps by device, from
      Jamal Hadi Salim.

   7) virtio-net also now supports busy polling, from Jason Wang.

   8) Some low level optimization tweaks in pktgen from Jesper Dangaard
      Brouer.

   9) Add support for ipv6 address generation modes, so that userland
      can have some input into the process.  From Jiri Pirko.

  10) Consolidate common TCP connection request code in ipv4 and ipv6,
      from Octavian Purdila.

  11) New ARP packet logger in netfilter, from Pablo Neira Ayuso.

  12) Generic resizable RCU hash table, with intial users in netlink and
      nftables.  From Thomas Graf.

  13) Maintain a name assignment type so that userspace can see where a
      network device name came from (enumerated by kernel, assigned
      explicitly by userspace, etc.) From Tom Gundersen.

  14) Automatic flow label generation on transmit in ipv6, from Tom
      Herbert.

  15) New packet timestamping facilities from Willem de Bruijn, meant to
      assist in measuring latencies going into/out-of the packet
      scheduler, latency from TCP data transmission to ACK, etc"
