Michael Kerrisk 71bbbbef71 packet.7: Remove text about ancient glibc not defining SOL_PACKET 
This was fixed in glibc 2.1.1, which is a long while ago.
And in any case, there is nothing special about this case;
it's just one of those times when glibc lags.

Peter Adkins 09fe692d1b tcp.7: Document removal of TCP_SYNQ_HSIZE 
Looking over the man page for 'tcp' I came across a reference to
tuning the 'TCP_SYNQ_HSIZE' parameter when increasing
'tcp_max_syn_backlog' above 1024. However, this static sizing was
removed back in Linux 2.6.20 in favor of dynamic scaling - as
part of commit 72a3effaf633bcae9034b7e176bdbd78d64a71db.

I have included a patch below with reference to this commit, and
that the process detailed is not required on >= Linux 2.6.20.

Michael Kerrisk f2d61dbbaa user_namespaces.7: Some tweaks to Eric Biederman's patch 
Signed-off-by: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com>
 2015-03-04 15:11:02 +01:00
Eric W. Biederman 0c9abe8b8c user_namespaces.7: Update the documentation to reflect the fixes for negative groups 
Files with access permissions such as rwx---rwx give fewer
permissions to their group then they do to everyone else.  Which
means dropping groups with setgroups(0, NULL) actually grants a
process privileges.

The unprivileged setting of gid_map turned out not to be safe
after this change.  Privileged setting of gid_map can be
interpreted as meaning yes it is ok to drop groups. [ Eric
additionally noted: Setting of gid_map with privilege has been
clarified to mean that dropping groups is ok.  This allows
existing programs that set gid_map with privilege to work
without changes.  That is, newgidmap(1) continues to work
unchanged.]

To prevent this problem and future problems, user namespaces were
changed in such a way as to guarantee a user can not obtain
credentials without privilege that they could not obtain without
the help of user namespaces.

This meant testing the effective user ID and not the filesystem
user ID, as setresuid(2) and setregid(2) allow setting any process
UID or GID (except the supplementary groups) to the effective ID.

Furthermore, to preserve in some form the useful applications
that have been setting gid_map without privilege, the file
/proc/[pid]/setgroups was added to allow disabling setgroups(2).
With setgroups(2) permanently disabled in a user namespace, it
again becomes safe to allow writes to gid_map without privilege.

from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1110401.

unix.7 is not clear about socket type of ioctl_type argument of
ioctl() function. The description of SIOCINQ is applicable only
for SOCK_STREAM socket. For SOCK_DGRAM, udp(7) man page gives
correct description of SIOCINQ

Troy Davis 15b236f3ac tcp.7: Clarify tcp_tw_recycle on Internet-facing hosts 
Clarify that tcp_tw_recycle will break communication with many
general-purpose remote Internet hosts (namely, remote NAT devices)
even when the Linux device itself is not behind NAT.

Sources:
  - BCP to make NAT implementors aware of this problem (2013):
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-penno-behave-rfc4787-5382-5508-bis-04#section-3.1.2
  - RFC 1323 (PAWS)
  - RFC 6191: Reducing the TIME-WAIT State Using TCP Timestamps
  - The many users who unknowingly enabled this option on devices
communicating with the general-purpose Internet:

Michael Kerrisk a3e65c937b epoll.7: Use epoll_create1() rather than epoll_create() in the code example 
epoll_create1() is more or less the preferred API for new
applications, since it allows for some flags and avoids the
misdesigned epoll_create() argument, and so it seems sensible
to use that in the example, rather than epoll_create().

Mike Frysinger ba7d7ed976 setns.2, pid_namespaces.7: Elaborate discussion of the PID namespace descendant limitation 
The setns(2) man page already mentions that CLONE_NEWPID may only
be used with descendant namespaces, but this nuance could be
listed in a few more places so it is not missed.

Michael Kerrisk b69167e19e signal.7: inotify(7) reads no longer show the odd EINTR error after SIGCONT 
Since kernel 3.7, reads from inotify(7) file descriptors no longer
show the (Linux oddity) behavior of failing with EINTR when the
process resumes after a stop signal + SIGCONT.
