2017-10-19configfs: make ci_type field, some pointers and function arguments constBhumika Goyal
The ci_type field of the config_item structure do not modify the fields of the config_item_type structure it points to. And the other pointers initialized with ci_type do not modify the fields as well. So, make the ci_type field and the pointers initialized with ci_type as const. Make the struct config_item_type *type function argument of functions config_{item/group}_init_type_name const as the argument in both the functions is only stored in the ci_type field of a config_item structure which is now made const. Make the argument of configfs_register_default_group const as it is only passed to the argument of the function config_group_init_type_name which is now const.

2016-03-06configfs: switch ->default groups to a linked listChristoph Hellwig
Replace the current NULL-terminated array of default groups with a linked list. This gets rid of lots of nasty code to size and/or dynamically allocate the array. While we're at it also provide a conveniant helper to remove the default groups.

2015-07-17configfs: fix kernel infoleak through user-controlled format stringNicolas Iooss
Some modules call config_item_init_type_name() and config_group_init_type_name() with parameter "name" directly controlled by userspace. These two functions call config_item_set_name() with this name used as a format string, which can be used to leak information such as content of the stack to userspace. For example, make_netconsole_target() in netconsole module calls config_item_init_type_name() with the name of a newly-created directory. This means that the following commands give some unexpected output, with configfs mounted in /sys/kernel/config/ and on a system with a configured eth0 ethernet interface: # modprobe netconsole # mkdir /sys/kernel/config/netconsole/target_%lx # echo eth0 > /sys/kernel/config/netconsole/target_%lx/dev_name # echo 1 > /sys/kernel/config/netconsole/target_%lx/enabled # echo eth0 > /sys/kernel/config/netconsole/target_%lx/dev_name # dmesg |tail -n1 [ 142.697668] netconsole: target (target_ffffffffc0ae8080) is enabled, disable to update parameters The directory name is correct but %lx has been interpreted in the internal item name, displayed here in the error message used by store_dev_name() in drivers/net/netconsole.c. To fix this, update every caller of config_item_set_name to use "%s" when operating on untrusted input. This issue was found using -Wformat-security gcc flag, once a __printf attribute has been added to config_item_set_name().

2011-09-27doc: fix broken referencesPaul Bolle
There are numerous broken references to Documentation files (in other Documentation files, in comments, etc.). These broken references are caused by typo's in the references, and by renames or removals of the Documentation files. Some broken references are simply odd. Fix these broken references, sometimes by dropping the irrelevant text they were part of. Signed-off-by: Paul Bolle <pebolle@tiscali.nl> Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>
2007-07-10[PATCH] configfs+dlm: Rename config_group_find_obj and state semantics clearlySatyam Sharma
Configfs being based upon sysfs code, config_group_find_obj() is probably so named because of the similar kset_find_obj() in sysfs. However, "kobject"s in sysfs become "config_item"s in configfs, so let's call it config_group_find_item() instead, for sake of uniformity, and make corresponding change in the users of this function. BTW a crucial difference between kset_find_obj and config_group_find_item is in locking expectations. kset_find_obj does its locking by itself, but config_group_find_item expects the *caller* to do the locking. The reason for this: kset's have their own locks, config_group's don't but instead rely on the subsystem mutex. And, subsystem needn't necessarily be around when config_group_find_item() is called. So let's state these locking semantics explicitly, and rectify the comment, otherwise bugs could continue to occur in future, as they did in the past (refer commit d82b8191e238 in gfs2-2.6-fixes.git).

2007-07-10configfs: misc cleanupsSatyam Sharma
1. item.c:config_item_cleanup() is a private function (only called by config_item_release() in same file). However, it is spuriously exported in include/linux/configfs.h, so remove that export and make it static in item.c. Also, it is no longer exported / interface function, so no need to give comment for this function (the comment was stating obvious thing, anyway). 2. Kernel-doc comment format does not allow empty line between end of comment and start of function (declaration line). There were several such spurious empty lines in item.c, so fix them. fs/configfs/item.c | 15 +++------------ include/linux/configfs.h | 1 - 2 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-) Signed-off-by: Satyam Sharma <ssatyam@cse.iitk.ac.in> Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
