Kees Cook	0e1a6ef2de	sysctl: require CAP_SYS_RAWIO to set mmap_min_addr ... Currently the mmap_min_addr value can only be bypassed during mmap when the task has CAP_SYS_RAWIO. However, the mmap_min_addr sysctl value itself can be adjusted to 0 if euid == 0, allowing a bypass without CAP_SYS_RAWIO. This patch adds a check for the capability before allowing mmap_min_addr to be changed.

Alexey Dobriyan	8d65af789f	sysctl: remove "struct file *" argument of ->proc_handler ... It's unused. It isn't needed -- read or write flag is already passed and sysctl shouldn't care about the rest. It _was_ used in two places at arch/frv for some reason. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: "Eric W.

Eric Paris	788084aba2	Security/SELinux: seperate lsm specific mmap_min_addr ... Currently SELinux enforcement of controls on the ability to map low memory is determined by the mmap_min_addr tunable. This patch causes SELinux to ignore the tunable and instead use a seperate Kconfig option specific to how much space the LSM should protect. The tunable will now only control the need for CAP_SYS_RAWIO and SELinux permissions will always protect the amount of low memory designated by CONFIG_LSM_MMAP_MIN_ADDR. This allows users who need to disable the mmap_min_addr controls (usual reason being they run WINE as a non-root user) to do so and still have SELinux controls preventing confined domains (like a web server) from being able to map some area of low memory.
