Andreas Steinmetz c2ff18f407 [PATCH] encrypt suspend data for easy wiping
The patch protects from leaking sensitive data after resume from suspend.
During suspend a temporary key is created and this key is used to encrypt the
data written to disk.  When, during resume, the data was read back into memory
the temporary key is destroyed which simply means that all data written to
disk during suspend are then inaccessible so they can't be stolen lateron.

Think of the following: you suspend while an application is running that keeps
sensitive data in memory.  The application itself prevents the data from being
swapped out.  Suspend, however, must write these data to swap to be able to
resume lateron.  Without suspend encryption your sensitive data are then
stored in plaintext on disk.  This means that after resume your sensitive data
are accessible to all applications having direct access to the swap device
which was used for suspend.  If you don't need swap after resume these data
can remain on disk virtually forever.  Thus it can happen that your system
gets broken in weeks later and sensitive data which you thought were encrypted
and protected are retrieved and stolen from the swap device.

Hugh Dickins dae06ac43d [PATCH] swap: update swsusp use of swap_info
Aha, swsusp dips into swap_info[], better update it to swap_lock.  It's
bitflipping flags with 0xFF, so get_swap_page will allocate from only the one
chosen device: let's change that to flip SWP_WRITEOK.

Linus Torvalds 2031d0f586 Merge Christoph's freeze cleanup patch 2005-06-25 17:16:53 -07:00
Christoph Lameter 3e1d1d28d9 [PATCH] Cleanup patch for process freezing
1. Establish a simple API for process freezing defined in linux/include/sched.h:

   frozen(process)		Check for frozen process
   freezing(process)		Check if a process is being frozen
   freeze(process)		Tell a process to freeze (go to refrigerator)
   thaw_process(process)	Restart process
   frozen_process(process)	Process is frozen now

2. Remove all references to PF_FREEZE and PF_FROZEN from all
   kernel sources except sched.h

3. Fix numerous locations where try_to_freeze is manually done by a driver

4. Remove the argument that is no longer necessary from two function calls.

5. Some whitespace cleanup

6. Clear potential race in refrigerator (provides an open window of PF_FREEZE
   cleared before setting PF_FROZEN, recalc_sigpending does not check
   PF_FROZEN).

This patch does not address the problem of freeze_processes() violating the rule
that a task may only modify its own flags by setting PF_FREEZE. This is not clean
in an SMP environment. freeze(process) is therefore not SMP safe!

Ingo Molnar 39c715b717 [PATCH] smp_processor_id() cleanup
This patch implements a number of smp_processor_id() cleanup ideas that
Arjan van de Ven and I came up with.

The previous __smp_processor_id/_smp_processor_id/smp_processor_id API
spaghetti was hard to follow both on the implementational and on the
usage side.

Some of the complexity arose from picking wrong names, some of the
complexity comes from the fact that not all architectures defined
__smp_processor_id.

In the new code, there are two externally visible symbols:

 - smp_processor_id(): debug variant.

 - raw_smp_processor_id(): nondebug variant. Replaces all existing
   uses of _smp_processor_id() and __smp_processor_id(). Defined
   by every SMP architecture in include/asm-*/smp.h.

There is one new internal symbol, dependent on DEBUG_PREEMPT:

 - debug_smp_processor_id(): internal debug variant, mapped to
                             smp_processor_id().

Also, i moved debug_smp_processor_id() from lib/kernel_lock.c into a new
lib/smp_processor_id.c file.  All related comments got updated and/or
clarified.

I have build/boot tested the following 8 .config combinations on x86:

 {SMP,UP} x {PREEMPT,!PREEMPT} x {DEBUG_PREEMPT,!DEBUG_PREEMPT}

I have also build/boot tested x64 on UP/PREEMPT/DEBUG_PREEMPT.  (Other
architectures are untested, but should work just fine.)

David Brownell 82428b62aa [PATCH] Driver Core: pm diagnostics update, check for errors
This patch includes various tweaks in the messaging that appears during
system pm state transitions:

  * Warn about certain illegal calls in the device tree, like resuming
    child before parent or suspending parent before child.  This could
    happen easily enough through sysfs, or in some cases when drivers
    use device_pm_set_parent().

  * Be more consistent about dev_dbg() tracing ... do it for resume() and
    shutdown() too, and never if the driver doesn't have that method.

  * Say which type of system sleep state is being entered.

Except for the warnings, these only affect debug messaging.

Pavel Pisa 4dc3b16ba1 [PATCH] DocBook: changes and extensions to the kernel documentation
I have recompiled Linux kernel 2.6.11.5 documentation for me and our
university students again.  The documentation could be extended for more
sources which are equipped by structured comments for recent 2.6 kernels.  I
have tried to proceed with that task.  I have done that more times from 2.6.0
time and it gets boring to do same changes again and again.  Linux kernel
compiles after changes for i386 and ARM targets.  I have added references to
some more files into kernel-api book, I have added some section names as well.
 So please, check that changes do not break something and that categories are
not too much skewed.

I have changed kernel-doc to accept "fastcall" and "asmlinkage" words reserved
by kernel convention.  Most of the other changes are modifications in the
comments to make kernel-doc happy, accept some parameters description and do
not bail out on errors.  Changed <pid> to @pid in the description, moved some
#ifdef before comments to correct function to comments bindings, etc.

You can see result of the modified documentation build at
  http://cmp.felk.cvut.cz/~pisa/linux/lkdb-2.6.11.tar.gz

Some more sources are ready to be included into kernel-doc generated
documentation.  Sources has been added into kernel-api for now.  Some more
section names added and probably some more chaos introduced as result of quick
cleanup work.

git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
