netns: restrict uevents
commit07e98962fa("kobject: Send hotplug events in all network namespaces") enabled sending hotplug events into all network namespaces back in 2010. Over time the set of uevents that get sent into all network namespaces has shrunk. We have now reached the point where hotplug events for all devices that carry a namespace tag are filtered according to that namespace. Specifically, they are filtered whenever the namespace tag of the kobject does not match the namespace tag of the netlink socket. Currently, only network devices carry namespace tags (i.e. network namespace tags). Hence, uevents for network devices only show up in the network namespace such devices are created in or moved to. However, any uevent for a kobject that does not have a namespace tag associated with it will not be filtered and we will broadcast it into all network namespaces. This behavior stopped making sense when user namespaces were introduced. This patch simplifies and fixes couple of things: - Split codepath for sending uevents by kobject namespace tags: 1. Untagged kobjects - uevent_net_broadcast_untagged(): Untagged kobjects will be broadcast into all uevent sockets recorded in uevent_sock_list, i.e. into all network namespacs owned by the intial user namespace. 2. Tagged kobjects - uevent_net_broadcast_tagged(): Tagged kobjects will only be broadcast into the network namespace they were tagged with. Handling of tagged kobjects in 2. does not cause any semantic changes. This is just splitting out the filtering logic that was handled by kobj_bcast_filter() before. Handling of untagged kobjects in 1. will cause a semantic change. The reasons why this is needed and ok have been discussed in [1]. Here is a short summary: - Userspace ignores uevents from network namespaces that are not owned by the intial user namespace: Uevents are filtered by userspace in a user namespace because the received uid != 0. Instead the uid associated with the event will be 65534 == "nobody" because the global root uid is not mapped. This means we can safely and without introducing regressions modify the kernel to not send uevents into all network namespaces whose owning user namespace is not the initial user namespace because we know that userspace will ignore the message because of the uid anyway. I have a) verified that is is true for every udev implementation out there b) that this behavior has been present in all udev implementations from the very beginning. - Thundering herd: Broadcasting uevents into all network namespaces introduces significant overhead. All processes that listen to uevents running in non-initial user namespaces will end up responding to uevents that will be meaningless to them. Mainly, because non-initial user namespaces cannot easily manage devices unless they have a privileged host-process helping them out. This means that there will be a thundering herd of activity when there shouldn't be any. - Removing needless overhead/Increasing performance: Currently, the uevent socket for each network namespace is added to the global variable uevent_sock_list. The list itself needs to be protected by a mutex. So everytime a uevent is generated the mutex is taken on the list. The mutex is held *from the creation of the uevent (memory allocation, string creation etc. until all uevent sockets have been handled*. This is aggravated by the fact that for each uevent socket that has listeners the mc_list must be walked as well which means we're talking O(n^2) here. Given that a standard Linux workload usually has quite a lot of network namespaces and - in the face of containers - a lot of user namespaces this quickly becomes a performance problem (see "Thundering herd" above). By just recording uevent sockets of network namespaces that are owned by the initial user namespace we significantly increase performance in this codepath. - Injecting uevents: There's a valid argument that containers might be interested in receiving device events especially if they are delegated to them by a privileged userspace process. One prime example are SR-IOV enabled devices that are explicitly designed to be handed of to other users such as VMs or containers. This use-case can now be correctly handled since commit692ec06d7c("netns: send uevent messages"). This commit introduced the ability to send uevents from userspace. As such we can let a sufficiently privileged (CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the owning user namespace of the network namespace of the netlink socket) userspace process make a decision what uevents should be sent. This removes the need to blindly broadcast uevents into all user namespaces and provides a performant and safe solution to this problem. - Filtering logic: This patch filters by *owning user namespace of the network namespace a given task resides in* and not by user namespace of the task per se. This means if the user namespace of a given task is unshared but the network namespace is kept and is owned by the initial user namespace a listener that is opening the uevent socket in that network namespace can still listen to uevents. - Fix permission for tagged kobjects: Network devices that are created or moved into a network namespace that is owned by a non-initial user namespace currently are send with INVALID_{G,U}ID in their credentials. This means that all current udev implementations in userspace will ignore the uevent they receive for them. This has lead to weird bugs whereby new devices showing up in such network namespaces were not recognized and did not get IPs assigned etc. This patch adjusts the permission to the appropriate {g,u}id in the respective user namespace. This way udevd is able to correctly handle such devices. - Simplify filtering logic: do_one_broadcast() already ensures that only listeners in mc_list receive uevents that have the same network namespace as the uevent socket itself. So the filtering logic in kobj_bcast_filter is not needed (see [3]). This patch therefore removes kobj_bcast_filter() and replaces netlink_broadcast_filtered() with the simpler netlink_broadcast() everywhere.
