Subject: [GIT Pull Request] Copy on write credentials for Linux [ver #4]


Hi Linus,

These patches form the rest of the copy-on-write credentials code.  You have
incorporated some of the patches, either directly or via other subsystem trees.

These patches are being used as the base for some other work - filesystem local
caching for instance - and a number of security projects are now using these as
a base too (TOMOYA for instance).

You might wish to incorporate these at the end of the window as the wrapper
patches may break other patches people have proposed.  There's no way around
that, though the fixups are usually straightforward.

In summary, these patches detach the security info from the task_struct and put
it into its own struct with COW semantics.  This allows execve() to be cleaned
up and allows cachefiles, nfsd, coredumping and faccessat() to override a
process's credentials without exposing the override to userspace.  Multiple
simultaneous security changes (eg: setresuid and execve) now happen
instantaneously, and no intermediate state will be seen.

Documentation is added in its own patch, and the patches have been tested by
LTP's SELinux and syscalls tests.

Thanks,
David
