2020-12-10fs/namespace.c: WARN if mnt_count has become negativeEric Biggers
Missing calls to mntget() (or equivalently, too many calls to mntput()) are hard to detect because mntput() delays freeing mounts using task_work_add(), then again using call_rcu(). As a result, mnt_count can often be decremented to -1 without getting a KASAN use-after-free report. Such cases are still bugs though, and they point to real use-after-frees being possible. For an example of this, see the bug fixed by commit 1b0b9cc8d379 ("vfs: fsmount: add missing mntget()"), discussed at https://lkml.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/20190605135401.GB30925@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/T/#u. This bug *should* have been trivial to find. But actually, it wasn't found until syzkaller happened to use fchdir() to manipulate the reference count just right for the bug to be noticeable. Address this by making mntput_no_expire() issue a WARN if mnt_count has become negative.

2020-10-17task_work: cleanup notification modesJens Axboe
A previous commit changed the notification mode from true/false to an int, allowing notify-no, notify-yes, or signal-notify. This was backwards compatible in the sense that any existing true/false user would translate to either 0 (on notification sent) or 1, the latter which mapped to TWA_RESUME. TWA_SIGNAL was assigned a value of 2. Clean this up properly, and define a proper enum for the notification mode. Now we have: - TWA_NONE. This is 0, same as before the original change, meaning no notification requested. - TWA_RESUME. This is 1, same as before the original change, meaning that we use TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME. - TWA_SIGNAL. This uses TIF_SIGPENDING/JOBCTL_TASK_WORK for the notification. Clean up all the callers, switching their 0/1/false/true to using the appropriate TWA_* mode for notifications.

2020-09-04fs: Handle intra-page faults in copy_mount_options()Catalin Marinas
The copy_mount_options() function takes a user pointer argument but no size and it tries to read up to a PAGE_SIZE. However, copy_from_user() is not guaranteed to return all the accessible bytes if, for example, the access crosses a page boundary and gets a fault on the second page. To work around this, the current copy_mount_options() implementation performs two copy_from_user() passes, first to the end of the current page and the second to what's left in the subsequent page. On arm64 with MTE enabled, access to a user page may trigger a fault after part of the buffer in a page has been copied (when the user pointer tag, bits 56-59, no longer matches the allocation tag stored in memory). Allow copy_mount_options() to handle such intra-page faults by resorting to byte at a time copy in case of copy_from_user() failure. Note that copy_from_user() handles the zeroing of the kernel buffer in case of error. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: Alexander Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2020-08-27Add a "nosymfollow" mount option.Mattias Nissler
For mounts that have the new "nosymfollow" option, don't follow symlinks when resolving paths. The new option is similar in spirit to the existing "nodev", "noexec", and "nosuid" options, as well as to the LOOKUP_NO_SYMLINKS resolve flag in the openat2(2) syscall. Various BSD variants have been supporting the "nosymfollow" mount option for a long time with equivalent implementations. Note that symlinks may still be created on file systems mounted with the "nosymfollow" option present. readlink() remains functional, so user space code that is aware of symlinks can still choose to follow them explicitly. Setting the "nosymfollow" mount option helps prevent privileged writers from modifying files unintentionally in case there is an unexpected link along the accessed path. The "nosymfollow" option is thus useful as a defensive measure for systems that need to deal with untrusted file systems in privileged contexts.

2020-08-19mnt: Use generic ns_common::countKirill Tkhai
Switch over mount namespaces to use the newly introduced common lifetime counter. Currently every namespace type has its own lifetime counter which is stored in the specific namespace struct. The lifetime counters are used identically for all namespaces types. Namespaces may of course have additional unrelated counters and these are not altered. This introduces a common lifetime counter into struct ns_common. The ns_common struct encompasses information that all namespaces share. That should include the lifetime counter since its common for all of them. It also allows us to unify the type of the counters across all namespaces. Most of them use refcount_t but one uses atomic_t and at least one uses kref. Especially the last one doesn't make much sense since it's just a wrapper around refcount_t since 2016 and actually complicates cleanup operations by having to use container_of() to cast the correct namespace struct out of struct ns_common. Having the lifetime counter for the namespaces in one place reduces maintenance cost. Not just because after switching all namespaces over we will have removed more code than we added but also because the logic is more easily understandable and we indicate to the user that the basic lifetime requirements for all namespaces are currently identical.

2020-07-14fuse: reject options on reconfigure via fsconfig(2)Miklos Szeredi
Previous patch changed handling of remount/reconfigure to ignore all options, including those that are unknown to the fuse kernel fs. This was done for backward compatibility, but this likely only affects the old mount(2) API. The new fsconfig(2) based reconfiguration could possibly be improved. This would make the new API less of a drop in replacement for the old, OTOH this is a good chance to get rid of some weirdnesses in the old API. Several other behaviors might make sense: 1) unknown options are rejected, known options are ignored 2) unknown options are rejected, known options are rejected if the value is changed, allowed otherwise 3) all options are rejected Prior to the backward compatibility fix to ignore all options all known options were accepted (1), even if they change the value of a mount parameter; fuse_reconfigure() does not look at the config values set by fuse_parse_param(). To fix that we'd need to verify that the value provided is the same as set in the initial configuration (2). The major drawback is that this is much more complex than just rejecting all attempts at changing options (3); i.e. all options signify initial configuration values and don't make sense on reconfigure. This patch opts for (3) with the rationale that no mount options are reconfigurable in fuse. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@redhat.com>

2020-06-04ovl: make private mounts longtermMiklos Szeredi
Overlayfs is using clone_private_mount() to create internal mounts for underlying layers. These are used for operations requiring a path, such as dentry_open(). Since these private mounts are not in any namespace they are treated as short term, "detached" mounts and mntput() involves taking the global mount_lock, which can result in serious cacheline pingpong. Make these private mounts longterm instead, which trade the penalty on mntput() for a slightly longer shutdown time due to an added RCU grace period when putting these mounts. Introduce a new helper kern_unmount_many() that can take care of multiple longterm mounts with a single RCU grace period.

2020-05-14proc/mounts: add cursorMiklos Szeredi
If mounts are deleted after a read(2) call on /proc/self/mounts (or its kin), the subsequent read(2) could miss a mount that comes after the deleted one in the list. This is because the file position is interpreted as the number mount entries from the start of the list. E.g. first read gets entries #0 to #9; the seq file index will be 10. Then entry #5 is deleted, resulting in #10 becoming #9 and #11 becoming #10, etc... The next read will continue from entry #10, and #9 is missed. Solve this by adding a cursor entry for each open instance. Taking the global namespace_sem for write seems excessive, since we are only dealing with a per-namespace list. Instead add a per-namespace spinlock and use that together with namespace_sem taken for read to protect against concurrent modification of the mount list. This may reduce parallelism of is_local_mountpoint(), but it's hardly a big contention point. We could also use RCU freeing of cursors to make traversal not need additional locks, if that turns out to be neceesary. Only move the cursor once for each read (cursor is not added on open) to minimize cacheline invalidation. When EOF is reached, the cursor is taken off the list, in order to prevent an excessive number of cursors due to inactive open file descriptors.

2020-05-13nsproxy: attach to namespaces via pidfdsChristian Brauner
For quite a while we have been thinking about using pidfds to attach to namespaces. This patchset has existed for about a year already but we've wanted to wait to see how the general api would be received and adopted. Now that more and more programs in userspace have started using pidfds for process management it's time to send this one out. This patch makes it possible to use pidfds to attach to the namespaces of another process, i.e. they can be passed as the first argument to the setns() syscall. When only a single namespace type is specified the semantics are equivalent to passing an nsfd. That means setns(nsfd, CLONE_NEWNET) equals setns(pidfd, CLONE_NEWNET). However, when a pidfd is passed, multiple namespace flags can be specified in the second setns() argument and setns() will attach the caller to all the specified namespaces all at once or to none of them. Specifying 0 is not valid together with a pidfd. Here are just two obvious examples: setns(pidfd, CLONE_NEWPID | CLONE_NEWNS | CLONE_NEWNET); setns(pidfd, CLONE_NEWUSER); Allowing to also attach subsets of namespaces supports various use-cases where callers setns to a subset of namespaces to retain privilege, perform an action and then re-attach another subset of namespaces. If the need arises, as Eric suggested, we can extend this patchset to assume even more context than just attaching all namespaces. His suggestion specifically was about assuming the process' root directory when setns(pidfd, 0) or setns(pidfd, SETNS_PIDFD) is specified. For now, just keep it flexible in terms of supporting subsets of namespaces but let's wait until we have users asking for even more context to be assumed. At that point we can add an extension. The obvious example where this is useful is a standard container manager interacting with a running container: pushing and pulling files or directories, injecting mounts, attaching/execing any kind of process, managing network devices all these operations require attaching to all or at least multiple namespaces at the same time. Given that nowadays most containers are spawned with all namespaces enabled we're currently looking at at least 14 syscalls, 7 to open the /proc/<pid>/ns/<ns> nsfds, another 7 to actually perform the namespace switch. With time namespaces we're looking at about 16 syscalls. (We could amortize the first 7 or 8 syscalls for opening the nsfds by stashing them in each container's monitor process but that would mean we need to send around those file descriptors through unix sockets everytime we want to interact with the container or keep on-disk state. Even in scenarios where a caller wants to join a particular namespace in a particular order callers still profit from batching other namespaces. That mostly applies to the user namespace but all container runtimes I found join the user namespace first no matter if it privileges or deprivileges the container similar to how unshare behaves.) With pidfds this becomes a single syscall no matter how many namespaces are supposed to be attached to. A decently designed, large-scale container manager usually isn't the parent of any of the containers it spawns so the containers don't die when it crashes or needs to update or reinitialize. This means that for the manager to interact with containers through pids is inherently racy especially on systems where the maximum pid number is not significicantly bumped. This is even more problematic since we often spawn and manage thousands or ten-thousands of containers. Interacting with a container through a pid thus can become risky quite quickly. Especially since we allow for an administrator to enable advanced features such as syscall interception where we're performing syscalls in lieu of the container. In all of those cases we use pidfds if they are available and we pass them around as stable references. Using them to setns() to the target process' namespaces is as reliable as using nsfds. Either the target process is already dead and we get ESRCH or we manage to attach to its namespaces but we can't accidently attach to another process' namespaces. So pidfds lend themselves to be used with this api. The other main advantage is that with this change the pidfd becomes the only relevant token for most container interactions and it's the only token we need to create and send around. Apart from significiantly reducing the number of syscalls from double digit to single digit which is a decent reason post-spectre/meltdown this also allows to switch to a set of namespaces atomically, i.e. either attaching to all the specified namespaces succeeds or we fail. If we fail we haven't changed a single namespace. There are currently three namespaces that can fail (other than for ENOMEM which really is not very interesting since we then have other problems anyway) for non-trivial reasons, user, mount, and pid namespaces. We can fail to attach to a pid namespace if it is not our current active pid namespace or a descendant of it. We can fail to attach to a user namespace because we are multi-threaded or because our current mount namespace shares filesystem state with other tasks, or because we're trying to setns() to the same user namespace, i.e. the target task has the same user namespace as we do. We can fail to attach to a mount namespace because it shares filesystem state with other tasks or because we fail to lookup the new root for the new mount namespace. In most non-pathological scenarios these issues can be somewhat mitigated. But there are cases where we're half-attached to some namespace and failing to attach to another one. I've talked about some of these problem during the hallway track (something only the pre-COVID-19 generation will remember) of Plumbers in Los Angeles in 2018(?). Even if all these issues could be avoided with super careful userspace coding it would be nicer to have this done in-kernel. Pidfds seem to lend themselves nicely for this. The other neat thing about this is that setns() becomes an actual counterpart to the namespace bits of unshare().

Add a simple struct nsset. It holds all necessary pieces to switch to a new set of namespaces without leaving a task in a half-switched state which we will make use of in the next patch. This patch switches the existing setns logic over without causing a change in setns() behavior. This brings setns() closer to how unshare() works(). The prepare_ns() function is responsible to prepare all necessary information. This has two reasons. First it minimizes dependencies between individual namespaces, i.e. all install handler can expect that all fields are properly initialized independent in what order they are called in. Second, this makes the code easier to maintain and easier to follow if it needs to be changed. The prepare_ns() helper will only be switched over to use a flags argument in the next patch. Here it will still use nstype as a simple integer argument which was argued would be clearer. I'm not particularly opinionated about this if it really helps or not. The struct nsset itself already contains the flags field since its name already indicates that it can contain information required by different namespaces. None of this should have functional consequences. Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <christian.brauner@ubuntu.com> Reviewed-by: Serge Hallyn <serge@hallyn.com> Cc: Eric W.

2020-02-27follow_automount(): get rid of dead^Wstillborn codeAl Viro
1) no instances of ->d_automount() have ever made use of the "return ERR_PTR(-EISDIR) if you don't feel like mounting anything" - that's a rudiment of plans that got superseded before the thing went into the tree. Despite the comment in follow_automount(), autofs has never done that. 2) if there's no ->d_automount() in dentry_operations, filesystems should not set DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT in the first place. None have ever done so... Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2020-02-27fix automount/automount race properlyAl Viro
Protection against automount/automount races (two threads hitting the same referral point at the same time) is based upon do_add_mount() prevention of identical overmounts - trying to overmount the root of mounted tree with the same tree fails with -EBUSY. It's unreliable (the other thread might've mounted something on top of the automount it has triggered) *and* causes no end of headache for follow_automount() and its caller, since finish_automount() behaves like do_new_mount() - if the mountpoint to be is overmounted, it mounts on top what's overmounting it. It's not only wrong (we want to go into what's overmounting the automount point and quietly discard what we planned to mount there), it introduces the possibility of original parent mount getting dropped. That's what 8aef18845266 (VFS: Fix vfsmount overput on simultaneous automount) deals with, but it can't do anything about the reliability of conflict detection - if something had been overmounted the other thread's automount (e.g. that other thread having stepped into automount in mount(2)), we don't get that -EBUSY and the result is referral point under automounted NFS under explicit overmount under another copy of automounted NFS What we need is finish_automount() *NOT* digging into overmounts - if it finds one, it should just quietly discard the thing it was asked to mount. And don't bother with actually crossing into the results of finish_automount() - the same loop that calls follow_automount() will do that just fine on the next iteration. IOW, instead of calling lock_mount() have finish_automount() do it manually, _without_ the "move into overmount and retry" part. And leave crossing into the results to the caller of follow_automount(), which simplifies it a lot. Moral: if you end up with a lot of glue working around the calling conventions of something, perhaps these calling conventions are simply wrong...

2019-12-12init: use do_mount() instead of ksys_mount()Dominik Brodowski
In prepare_namespace(), do_mount() can be used instead of ksys_mount() as the first and third argument are const strings in the kernel, the second and fourth argument are passed through anyway, and the fifth argument is NULL. In do_mount_root(), ksys_mount() is called with the first and third argument being already kernelspace strings, which do not need to be copied over from userspace to kernelspace (again). The second and fourth arguments are passed through to do_mount() anyway. The fifth argument, while already residing in kernelspace, needs to be put into a page of its own. Then, do_mount() can be used instead of ksys_mount(). Once this is done, there are no in-kernel users to ksys_mount() left, which can therefore be removed.

2019-09-25fs/namespace: untag user pointers in copy_mount_optionsAndrey Konovalov
This patch is a part of a series that extends kernel ABI to allow to pass tagged user pointers (with the top byte set to something else other than 0x00) as syscall arguments. In copy_mount_options a user address is being subtracted from TASK_SIZE. If the address is lower than TASK_SIZE, the size is calculated to not allow the exact_copy_from_user() call to cross TASK_SIZE boundary. However if the address is tagged, then the size will be calculated incorrectly. Untag the address before subtracting.

The unused vfs code can be removed. Don't pass empty subtype (same as if ->parse callback isn't called). The bits that are left involve determining whether it's permitted to split the filesystem type string passed in to mount(2). Consequently, this means that we cannot get rid of the FS_HAS_SUBTYPE flag unless we define that a type string with a dot in it always indicates a subtype specification.
