step_into() tries to avoid grabbing and dropping mount references
on the steps that do not involve crossing mountpoints (which is
obviously the majority of cases). So it uses a local struct path
with unusual refcounting rules - path.mnt is pinned if and only if
it's not equal to nd->path.mnt.
We used to have similar beasts all over the place and we had quite
a few bugs crop up in their handling - it's easy to get confused
when changing e.g. cleanup on failure exits (or adding a new check,
etc.)
Now that's mostly gone - the step_into() instance (which is what
we need them for) is the only one left. It is exposed to mount
traversal and it's (shortly) seen by pick_link(). Since pick_link()
needs to store it in link stack, where the normal rules apply,
it has to make sure that mount is pinned regardless of nd->path.mnt
value. That's done on all calls of pick_link() and very early
in those. Let's do that in the caller (step_into()) instead -
that way the fewer places need to be aware of such struct path
instances.

new helper: choose_mountpoint(). Wrapper around choose_mountpoint_rcu(),
similar to lookup_mnt() vs. __lookup_mnt(). follow_dotdot() switched to
it. Now we don't grab mount_lock exclusive anymore; note that the
primitive used non-RCU mount traversals in other direction (lookup_mnt())
doesn't bother with that either - it uses mount_lock seqcount instead.
Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
The loops in follow_dotdot{_rcu()} are doing the same thing:
we have a mount and we want to find out how far up the chain
of mounts do we need to go.
We follow the chain of mount until we find one that is not
directly overmounting the root of another mount. If such
a mount is found, we want the location it's mounted upon.
If we run out of chain (i.e. get to a mount that is not
mounted on anything else) or run into process' root, we
report failure.
On success, we want (in RCU case) d_seq of resulting location
sampled or (in non-RCU case) references to that location
acquired.
This commit introduces such primitive for RCU case and
switches follow_dotdot_rcu() to it; non-RCU case will be
go in the next commit.

Change nd->path only after the loop is done and only in case we hadn't
ended up finding ourselves in root. Same for NO_XDEV check.
That separates the "check how far back do we need to go through the

recheck mount_lock on each step either.
That separates the "check how far back do we need to go through the

Note that the sequence for d_seq/d_inode here is
* sample mount_lock seqcount
...
* sample d_seq
* fetch d_inode
* verify mount_lock seqcount
The last step makes sure that d_inode value we'd got matches d_seq -
it dentry is guaranteed to have been a mountpoint through the
entire thing, so its d_inode must have been stable.

The logics in both of them is the same:
while true
if in process' root // uncommon
break
if *not* in mount root // normal case
find the parent
return
if at absolute root // very uncommon
break
move to underlying mountpoint
report that we are in root
Pull the common path out of the loop:
if in process' root // uncommon
goto in_root
if unlikely(in mount root)
while true
if at absolute root
goto in_root
move to underlying mountpoint
if in process' root
goto in_root
if in mount root
break;
find the parent // we are not in mount root
return
in_root:
report that we are in root
The reason for that transformation is that we get to keep the
common path straight *and* get a separate block for "move
through underlying mountpoints", which will allow to sanitize
NO_XDEV handling there. What's more, the pared-down loops
will be easier to deal with - in particular, non-RCU case
has no need to grab mount_lock and rewriting it to the
form that wouldn't do that is a non-trivial change. Better
do that with less stuff getting in the way...

Right now the tail ends of follow_dotdot{,_rcu}() are pretty
much the open-coded analogues of step_into(). The differences:

* the lack of ->d_manage() handling (again, arguably a bug)

it's easier to drop it right after lookup_open() and regain if
needed (i.e. if we will need to truncate). On the non-FMODE_OPENED

We use nd->stack to store two things: pinning down the symlinks
we are resolving and resuming the name traversal when a nested
symlink is finished.
Currently, nd->depth is used to keep track of both. It's 0 when
we call link_path_walk() for the first time (for the pathname
itself) and 1 on all subsequent calls (for trailing symlinks,
if any). That's fine, as far as pinning symlinks goes - when
handling a trailing symlink, the string we are interpreting
is the body of symlink pinned down in nd->stack[0]. It's
rather inconvenient with respect to handling nested symlinks,
though - when we run out of a string we are currently interpreting,
we need to decide whether it's a nested symlink (in which case
we need to pick the string saved back when we started to interpret
that nested symlink and resume its traversal) or not (in which
case we are done with link_path_walk()).
Current solution is a bit of a kludge - in handling of trailing symlink
(in lookup_last() and open_last_lookups() we clear nd->stack[0].name.
That allows link_path_walk() to use the following rules when
running out of a string to interpret:
* if nd->depth is zero, we are at the end of pathname itself.
* if nd->depth is positive, check the saved string; for
nested symlink it will be non-NULL, for trailing symlink - NULL.
It works, but it's rather non-obvious. Note that we have two sets:
the set of symlinks currently being traversed and the set of postponed
pathname tails. The former is stored in nd->stack[0..nd->depth-1].link
and it's valid throught the pathname resolution; the latter is valid only
during an individual call of link_path_walk() and it occupies
nd->stack[0..nd->depth-1].name for the first call of link_path_walk() and
nd->stack[1..nd->depth-1].name for subsequent ones. The kludge is basically
a way to recognize the second set becoming empty.
The things get simpler if we keep track of the second set's size
explicitly and always store it in nd->stack[0..depth-1].name.
We access the second set only inside link_path_walk(), so its
size can live in a local variable; that way the check becomes
trivial without the need of that kludge.

->last_type values are set in 3 places: path_init() (sets to LAST_ROOT),
link_path_walk (LAST_NORM/DOT/DOTDOT) and pick_link (LAST_BIND).
The are checked in walk_component(), lookup_last() and do_last().
They also get copied to the caller by filename_parentat(). In the last
3 cases the value is what we had at the return from link_path_walk().
In case of walk_component() it's either directly downstream from
assignment in link_path_walk() or, when called by lookup_last(), the
value we have at the return from link_path_walk().
The value at the entry into link_path_walk() can survive to return only
if the pathname contains nothing but slashes. Note that pick_link()
never returns such - pure jumps are handled directly. So for the calls
of link_path_walk() for trailing symlinks it does not matter what value
had been there at the entry; the value at the return won't depend upon it.
There are 3 call chains that might have pick_link() storing LAST_BIND:
1) pick_link() from step_into() from walk_component() from
link_path_walk(). In that case we will either be parsing the next
component immediately after return into link_path_walk(), which will
overwrite the ->last_type before anyone has a chance to look at it,
or we'll fail, in which case nobody will be looking at ->last_type at all.
2) pick_link() from step_into() from walk_component() from lookup_last().
The value is never looked at due to the above; it won't affect the value
seen at return from any link_path_walk().
3) pick_link() from step_into() from do_last(). Ditto.
In other words, assignemnt in pick_link() is pointless, and so is
LAST_BIND itself; nothing ever looks at that value. Kill it off.
And make link_path_walk() _always_ assign ->last_type - in the only
case when the value at the entry might survive to the return that value
is always LAST_ROOT, inherited from path_init(). Move that assignment
from path_init() into the beginning of link_path_walk(), to consolidate
the things.
Historical note: LAST_BIND used to be used for the kludge with trailing
pure jump symlinks (extra iteration through the top-level loop).
No point keeping it anymore...

After a pure jump ("/" or procfs-style symlink) we don't need to
hold the link anymore. link_path_walk() dropped it if such case
had been detected, lookup_last/do_last() (i.e. old trailing_symlink())
left it on the stack - it ended up calling terminate_walk() shortly
anyway, which would've purged the entire stack.
Do it in get_link() itself instead. Simpler logics that way...

Fold trailing_symlink() into lookup_last() and do_last(), change
the calling conventions of those two. Rules change:
success, we are done => NULL instead of 0
error => ERR_PTR(-E...) instead of -E...
got a symlink to follow => return the path to be followed instead of 1
The loops calling those (in path_lookupat() and path_openat()) adjusted.
A subtle change of control flow here: originally a pure-jump trailing
symlink ("/" or procfs one) would've passed through the upper level
loop once more, with "" for path to traverse. That would've brought
us back to the lookup_last/do_last entry and we would've hit LAST_BIND
case (LAST_BIND left from get_link() called by trailing_symlink())
and pretty much skip to the point right after where we'd left the
sucker back when we picked that trailing symlink.
Now we don't bother with that extra pass through the upper level
loop - if get_link() says "I've just done a pure jump, nothing
else to do", we just treat that as non-symlink case.
Boilerplate added on that step will go away shortly - it'll migrate
into walk_component() and then to step_into(), collapsing into the
change of calling conventions for those.

Move restoring LOOKUP_PARENT and zeroing nd->stack.name[0] past

The following is true:
* calls of handle_mounts() and step_into() are always
paired in sequences like
err = handle_mounts(nd, dentry, &path, &inode, &seq);
if (unlikely(err < 0))
return err;
err = step_into(nd, &path, flags, inode, seq);
* in all such sequences path is uninitialized before and
unused after this pair of calls
* in all such sequences inode and seq are unused afterwards.

turning 'path' into a local variable in the combined function.

We need to dismiss a symlink when we are done traversing it;
currently that's done when we call step_into() for its last
component. For the cases when we do not call step_into()
for that component (i.e. when it's . or ..) we do the same
symlink dismissal after the call of handle_dots().
What we need to guarantee is that the symlink won't be dismissed
while we are still using nd->last.name - it's pointing into the
body of said symlink. step_into() is sufficiently late - by
the time it's called we'd already obtained the dentry, so the
name we'd been looking up is no longer needed. However, it
turns out to be cleaner to have that ("we are done with that
component now, can dismiss the link") done explicitly - in the
callers of step_into().
In handle_dots() case we won't be using the component string
at all, so for . and .. the corresponding point is actually
_before_ the call of handle_dots(), not after it.
Fix a minor irregularity in do_last(), while we are at it -
if trailing symlink ended with . or .. we forgot to dismiss
it. Not a problem, since nameidata is about to be done with
(neither . nor .. can be a trailing symlink, so this is the
last iteration through the loop) and terminate_walk() will
clean the stack anyway, but let's keep it more regular.

result of handle_mounts(nd, dentry, path, inode, seqp) on

resp.; deal with handle_mounts() in the callers. The thing
is, they already do that in cache miss handling case, so we
just need to supply dentry to them and unify the mount traversal
in those cases. Fewer arguments that way, and we get closer

1) in case of __follow_mount_rcu() failure, lookup_fast() proceeds
to call unlazy_child() and, should it succeed, handle_mounts().

__follow_mount_rcu() at all), so all stuff conditional upon
non-positive status won't be even touched.
Consolidate just that sequence after the call of __follow_mount_rcu().
2) calling d_is_negative() and keeping its result is pointless -
we either don't get past checking ->d_seq (and don't use the results of
d_is_negative() at all), or we are guaranteed that ->d_inode and
type bits of ->d_flags had been consistent at the time of d_is_negative()
call. IOW, we could only get to the use of its result if it's
equal to !inode. The same ->d_seq check guarantees that after that point
this CPU won't observe ->d_flags values older than ->d_inode update.

All callers of follow_managed() follow it on success with the same steps -
d_backing_inode(path->dentry) is calculated and stored into some struct inode *
variable and, in all but one case, an unsigned variable (nd->seq to be) is
zeroed. The single exception is lookup_fast() and there zeroing is correct
thing to do - not doing it is a pointless microoptimization.
Add a wrapper for follow_managed() that would do that combination.
It's mostly a vehicle for code massage - it will be changing quite a bit,
and the current calling conventions are by no means final. Right now it
takes path, nameidata and (as out params) inode and seq, similar to
__follow_mount_rcu(). Which will soon get folded into it...

O_CREAT | O_EXCL means "-EEXIST if we run into a trailing symlink".
As it is, we might or might not have LOOKUP_FOLLOW in op->intent
in that case - that depends upon having O_NOFOLLOW in open flags.
It doesn't matter, since we won't be checking it in that case -
do_last() bails out earlier.
However, making sure it's not set (i.e. acting as if we had an explicit

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 8aef188452 (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...

Brown paperbag time: fetching ->i_uid/->i_mode really should've been
done from nd->inode. I even suggested that, but the reason for that has
slipped through the cracks and I went for dir->d_inode instead - made
for more "obvious" patch.
Analysis:
- at the entry into do_last() and all the way to step_into(): dir (aka
nd->path.dentry) is known not to have been freed; so's nd->inode and
it's equal to dir->d_inode unless we are already doomed to -ECHILD.
inode of the file to get opened is not known.
- after step_into(): inode of the file to get opened is known; dir
might be pointing to freed memory/be negative/etc.
- at the call of may_create_in_sticky(): guaranteed to be out of RCU
mode; inode of the file to get opened is known and pinned; dir might
be garbage.
The last was the reason for the original patch. Except that at the
do_last() entry we can be in RCU mode and it is possible that
nd->path.dentry->d_inode has already changed under us.
In that case we are going to fail with -ECHILD, but we need to be
careful; nd->inode is pointing to valid struct inode and it's the same
as nd->path.dentry->d_inode in "won't fail with -ECHILD" case, so we
should use that.

Pull openat2 support from Al Viro:
"This is the openat2() series from Aleksa Sarai.
I'm afraid that the rest of namei stuff will have to wait - it got
zero review the last time I'd posted #work.namei, and there had been a
leak in the posted series I'd caught only last weekend. I was going to
repost it on Monday, but the window opened and the odds of getting any
review during that... Oh, well.
Anyway, openat2 part should be ready; that _did_ get sane amount of
review and public testing, so here it comes"
From Aleksa's description of the series:
"For a very long time, extending openat(2) with new features has been
incredibly frustrating. This stems from the fact that openat(2) is
possibly the most famous counter-example to the mantra "don't silently
accept garbage from userspace" -- it doesn't check whether unknown
flags are present[1].
This means that (generally) the addition of new flags to openat(2) has
been fraught with backwards-compatibility issues (O_TMPFILE has to be
defined as __O_TMPFILE|O_DIRECTORY|[O_RDWR or O_WRONLY] to ensure old
kernels gave errors, since it's insecure to silently ignore the
flag[2]). All new security-related flags therefore have a tough road
to being added to openat(2).
Furthermore, the need for some sort of control over VFS's path
resolution (to avoid malicious paths resulting in inadvertent
breakouts) has been a very long-standing desire of many userspace
applications.
This patchset is a revival of Al Viro's old AT_NO_JUMPS[3] patchset
(which was a variant of David Drysdale's O_BENEATH patchset[4] which
was a spin-off of the Capsicum project[5]) with a few additions and
changes made based on the previous discussion within [6] as well as
others I felt were useful.
In line with the conclusions of the original discussion of
AT_NO_JUMPS, the flag has been split up into separate flags. However,
instead of being an openat(2) flag it is provided through a new
syscall openat2(2) which provides several other improvements to the
openat(2) interface (see the patch description for more details). The
following new LOOKUP_* flags are added:
LOOKUP_NO_XDEV:
Blocks all mountpoint crossings (upwards, downwards, or through
absolute links). Absolute pathnames alone in openat(2) do not
trigger this. Magic-link traversal which implies a vfsmount jump is
also blocked (though magic-link jumps on the same vfsmount are
permitted).
LOOKUP_NO_MAGICLINKS:
Blocks resolution through /proc/$pid/fd-style links. This is done
by blocking the usage of nd_jump_link() during resolution in a
filesystem. The term "magic-links" is used to match with the only
reference to these links in Documentation/, but I'm happy to change
the name.
It should be noted that this is different to the scope of
~LOOKUP_FOLLOW in that it applies to all path components. However,
you can do openat2(NO_FOLLOW|NO_MAGICLINKS) on a magic-link and it
will *not* fail (assuming that no parent component was a
magic-link), and you will have an fd for the magic-link.
In order to correctly detect magic-links, the introduction of a new
LOOKUP_MAGICLINK_JUMPED state flag was required.
LOOKUP_BENEATH:
Disallows escapes to outside the starting dirfd's
tree, using techniques such as ".." or absolute links. Absolute
paths in openat(2) are also disallowed.
Conceptually this flag is to ensure you "stay below" a certain
point in the filesystem tree -- but this requires some additional
to protect against various races that would allow escape using
"..".
Currently LOOKUP_BENEATH implies LOOKUP_NO_MAGICLINKS, because it
can trivially beam you around the filesystem (breaking the
protection). In future, there might be similar safety checks done
as in LOOKUP_IN_ROOT, but that requires more discussion.
In addition, two new flags are added that expand on the above ideas:
LOOKUP_NO_SYMLINKS:
Does what it says on the tin. No symlink resolution is allowed at
all, including magic-links. Just as with LOOKUP_NO_MAGICLINKS this
can still be used with NOFOLLOW to open an fd for the symlink as
long as no parent path had a symlink component.
LOOKUP_IN_ROOT:
This is an extension of LOOKUP_BENEATH that, rather than blocking
attempts to move past the root, forces all such movements to be
scoped to the starting point. This provides chroot(2)-like
protection but without the cost of a chroot(2) for each filesystem
operation, as well as being safe against race attacks that
chroot(2) is not.
If a race is detected (as with LOOKUP_BENEATH) then an error is
generated, and similar to LOOKUP_BENEATH it is not permitted to
cross magic-links with LOOKUP_IN_ROOT.
The primary need for this is from container runtimes, which
currently need to do symlink scoping in userspace[7] when opening
paths in a potentially malicious container.
There is a long list of CVEs that could have bene mitigated by
having RESOLVE_THIS_ROOT (such as CVE-2017-1002101,
CVE-2017-1002102, CVE-2018-15664, and CVE-2019-5736, just to name a
few).
In order to make all of the above more usable, I'm working on
libpathrs[8] which is a C-friendly library for safe path resolution.
It features a userspace-emulated backend if the kernel doesn't support
openat2(2). Hopefully we can get userspace to switch to using it, and
thus get openat2(2) support for free once it's ready.
Future work would include implementing things like
RESOLVE_NO_AUTOMOUNT and possibly a RESOLVE_NO_REMOTE (to allow
programs to be sure they don't hit DoSes though stale NFS handles)"

... and get rid of a bunch of bugs in it. Background:
the reason for path_mountpoint() is that umount() really doesn't
want attempts to revalidate the root of what it's trying to umount.
The thing we want to avoid actually happen from complete_walk();
solution was to do something parallel to normal path_lookupat()
and it both went overboard and got the boilerplate subtly
(and not so subtly) wrong.
A better solution is to do pretty much what the normal path_lookupat()
does, but instead of complete_walk() do unlazy_walk(). All it takes
to avoid that ->d_weak_revalidate() call... mountpoint_last() goes
away, along with everything it got wrong, and so does the magic around
LOOKUP_NO_REVAL.
Another source of bugs is that when we traverse mounts at the final
location (and we need to do that - umount . expects to get whatever's
overmounting ., if any, out of the lookup) we really ought to take
care of ->d_manage() - as it is, manual umount of autofs automount
in progress can lead to unpleasant surprises for the daemon. Easily
solved by using handle_lookup_down() instead of follow_mount().

Allow LOOKUP_BENEATH and LOOKUP_IN_ROOT to safely permit ".." resolution
(in the case of LOOKUP_BENEATH the resolution will still fail if ".."
resolution would resolve a path outside of the root -- while
LOOKUP_IN_ROOT will chroot(2)-style scope it). Magic-link jumps are
still disallowed entirely[*].
As Jann explains[1,2], the need for this patch (and the original no-".."
restriction) is explained by observing there is a fairly easy-to-exploit
race condition with chroot(2) (and thus by extension LOOKUP_IN_ROOT and
LOOKUP_BENEATH if ".." is allowed) where a rename(2) of a path can be
used to "skip over" nd->root and thus escape to the filesystem above
nd->root.
thread1 [attacker]:
for (;;)
renameat2(AT_FDCWD, "/a/b/c", AT_FDCWD, "/a/d", RENAME_EXCHANGE);
thread2 [victim]:
for (;;)
openat2(dirb, "b/c/../../etc/shadow",
{ .flags = O_PATH, .resolve = RESOLVE_IN_ROOT } );
With fairly significant regularity, thread2 will resolve to
"/etc/shadow" rather than "/a/b/etc/shadow". There is also a similar
(though somewhat more privileged) attack using MS_MOVE.
With this patch, such cases will be detected *during* ".." resolution
and will return -EAGAIN for userspace to decide to either retry or abort
the lookup. It should be noted that ".." is the weak point of chroot(2)
-- walking *into* a subdirectory tautologically cannot result in you
walking *outside* nd->root (except through a bind-mount or magic-link).
There is also no other way for a directory's parent to change (which is
the primary worry with ".." resolution here) other than a rename or
MS_MOVE.
The primary reason for deferring to userspace with -EAGAIN is that an
in-kernel retry loop (or doing a path_is_under() check after re-taking
the relevant seqlocks) can become unreasonably expensive on machines
with lots of VFS activity (nfsd can cause lots of rename_lock updates).
Thus it should be up to userspace how many times they wish to retry the
lookup -- the selftests for this attack indicate that there is a ~35%
chance of the lookup succeeding on the first try even with an attacker
thrashing rename_lock.
A variant of the above attack is included in the selftests for
openat2(2) later in this patch series. I've run this test on several
machines for several days and no instances of a breakout were detected.
While this is not concrete proof that this is safe, when combined with
the above argument it should lend some trustworthiness to this
construction.
[*] It may be acceptable in the future to do a path_is_under() check for
magic-links after they are resolved. However this seems unlikely to
be a feature that people *really* need -- it can be added later if
it turns out a lot of people want it.

/* Background. */
Container runtimes or other administrative management processes will
often interact with root filesystems while in the host mount namespace,
because the cost of doing a chroot(2) on every operation is too
prohibitive (especially in Go, which cannot safely use vfork). However,
a malicious program can trick the management process into doing
operations on files outside of the root filesystem through careful
crafting of symlinks.
Most programs that need this feature have attempted to make this process
safe, by doing all of the path resolution in userspace (with symlinks
being scoped to the root of the malicious root filesystem).
Unfortunately, this method is prone to foot-guns and usually such
implementations have subtle security bugs.
Thus, what userspace needs is a way to resolve a path as though it were
in a chroot(2) -- with all absolute symlinks being resolved relative to
the dirfd root (and ".." components being stuck under the dirfd root).
It is much simpler and more straight-forward to provide this
functionality in-kernel (because it can be done far more cheaply and
correctly).
More classical applications that also have this problem (which have
their own potentially buggy userspace path sanitisation code) include
web servers, archive extraction tools, network file servers, and so on.
/* Userspace API. */
LOOKUP_IN_ROOT will be exposed to userspace through openat2(2).
/* Semantics. */
Unlike most other LOOKUP flags (most notably LOOKUP_FOLLOW),
LOOKUP_IN_ROOT applies to all components of the path.
With LOOKUP_IN_ROOT, any path component which attempts to cross the
starting point of the pathname lookup (the dirfd passed to openat) will
remain at the starting point. Thus, all absolute paths and symlinks will
be scoped within the starting point.
There is a slight change in behaviour regarding pathnames -- if the
pathname is absolute then the dirfd is still used as the root of
resolution of LOOKUP_IN_ROOT is specified (this is to avoid obvious
foot-guns, at the cost of a minor API inconsistency).
As with LOOKUP_BENEATH, Jann's security concern about ".."[1] applies to
LOOKUP_IN_ROOT -- therefore ".." resolution is blocked. This restriction
will be lifted in a future patch, but requires more work to ensure that
permitting ".." is done safely.
Magic-link jumps are also blocked, because they can beam the path lookup
across the starting point. It would be possible to detect and block
only the "bad" crossings with path_is_under() checks, but it's unclear
whether it makes sense to permit magic-links at all. However, userspace
is recommended to pass LOOKUP_NO_MAGICLINKS if they want to ensure that
magic-link crossing is entirely disabled.

There are many circumstances when userspace wants to resolve a path and
ensure that it doesn't go outside of a particular root directory during
resolution. Obvious examples include archive extraction tools, as well as
other security-conscious userspace programs. FreeBSD spun out O_BENEATH
from their Capsicum project[1,2], so it also seems reasonable to
implement similar functionality for Linux.

/* Background. */
There has always been a special class of symlink-like objects in procfs
(and a few other pseudo-filesystems) which allow for non-lexical
resolution of paths using nd_jump_link(). These "magic-links" do not
follow traditional mount namespace boundaries, and have been used
consistently in container escape attacks because they can be used to
trick unsuspecting privileged processes into resolving unexpected paths.
It is also non-trivial for userspace to unambiguously avoid resolving
magic-links, because they do not have a reliable indication that they
are a magic-link (in order to verify them you'd have to manually open
the path given by readlink(2) and then verify that the two file
descriptors reference the same underlying file, which is plagued with
possible race conditions or supplementary attack scenarios).
It would therefore be very helpful for userspace to be able to avoid
these symlinks easily, thus hopefully removing a tool from attackers'
toolboxes.

Userspace cannot easily resolve a path without resolving symlinks, and

It's over-zealous to return hard errors under RCU-walk here, given that
a REF-walk will be triggered for all other cases handling ".." under
RCU.
The original purpose of this check was to ensure that if a rename occurs
such that a directory is moved outside of the bind-mount which the
resolution started in, it would be detected and blocked to avoid being
able to mess with paths outside of the bind-mount. However, triggering a
new REF-walk is just as effective a solution.

Pull vfs d_inode/d_flags memory ordering fixes from Al Viro:
"Fallout from tree-wide audit for ->d_inode/->d_flags barriers use.
Basically, the problem is that negative pinned dentries require
careful treatment - unless ->d_lock is locked or parent is held at
least shared, another thread can make them positive right under us.
Most of the uses turned out to be safe - the main surprises as far as
filesystems are concerned were
- race in dget_parent() fastpath, that might end up with the caller
observing the returned dentry _negative_, due to insufficient
barriers. It is positive in memory, but we could end up seeing the
wrong value of ->d_inode in CPU cache. Fixed.
- manual checks that result of lookup_one_len_unlocked() is positive
(and rejection of negatives). Again, insufficient barriers (we
might end up with inconsistent observed values of ->d_inode and
->d_flags). Fixed by switching to a new primitive that does the
checks itself and returns ERR_PTR(-ENOENT) instead of a negative
dentry. That way we get rid of boilerplate converting negatives
into ERR_PTR(-ENOENT) in the callers and have a single place to
deal with the barrier-related mess - inside fs/namei.c rather than
in every caller out there.
The guts of pathname resolution *do* need to be careful - the race
found by Ritesh is real, as well as several similar races.
Fortunately, it turns out that we can take care of that with fairly
local changes in there.
The tree-wide audit had not been fun, and I hate the idea of repeating
it. I think the right approach would be to annotate the places where
we are _not_ guaranteed ->d_inode/->d_flags stability and have sparse
catch regressions. But I'm still not sure what would be the least
invasive way of doing that and it's clearly the next cycle fodder"
* 'fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
fs/namei.c: fix missing barriers when checking positivity
fix dget_parent() fastpath race
new helper: lookup_positive_unlocked()
fs/namei.c: pull positivity check into follow_managed()
Pinned negative dentries can, generally, be made positive
by another thread. Conditions that prevent that are
* ->d_lock on dentry in question
* parent directory held at least shared
* nobody else could have observed the address of dentry
Most of the places working with those fall into one of those
categories; however, d_lookup() and friends need to be used
with some care. Fortunately, there's not a lot of call sites,
and with few exceptions all of those fall under one of the
cases above.
Exceptions are all in fs/namei.c - in lookup_fast(), lookup_dcache()
and mountpoint_last(). Another one is lookup_slow() - there
dcache lookup is done with parent held shared, but the result
is used after we'd drop the lock. The same happens in do_last() -
the lookup (in lookup_one()) is done with parent locked, but
result is used after unlocking.
lookup_fast(), do_last() and mountpoint_last() flat-out reject
negatives.
Most of lookup_dcache() calls are made with parent locked at least
shared; the only exception is lookup_one_len_unlocked(). It might
return pinned negative, needs serious care from callers. Fortunately,
almost nobody calls it directly anymore; all but two callers have
converted to lookup_positive_unlocked(), which rejects negatives.
lookup_slow() is called by the same lookup_one_len_unlocked() (see
above), mountpoint_last() and walk_component(). In those two negatives
are rejected.
In other words, there is a small set of places where we need to
check carefully if a pinned potentially negative dentry is, in
fact, positive. After that check we want to be sure that both
->d_inode and type bits in ->d_flags are stable and observed.
The set consists of follow_managed() (where the rejection happens
for lookup_fast(), walk_component() and do_last()), last_mountpoint()
and lookup_positive_unlocked().
Solution:
1) transition from negative to positive (in __d_set_inode_and_type())
stores ->d_inode, then uses smp_store_release() to set ->d_flags type bits.
2) aforementioned 3 places in fs/namei.c fetch ->d_flags with
smp_load_acquire() and bugger off if it type bits say "negative".
That way anyone downstream of those checks has dentry know positive pinned,
with ->d_inode and type bits of ->d_flags stable and observed.
I considered splitting off d_lookup_positive(), so that the checks could
be done right there, under ->d_lock. However, that leads to massive
duplication of rather subtle code in fs/namei.c and fs/dcache.c. It's
worse than it might seem, thanks to autofs ->d_manage() getting involved ;-/
No matter what, autofs_d_manage()/autofs_d_automount() must live with
the possibility of pinned negative dentry passed their way, becoming
positive under them - that's the intended behaviour when lookup comes
in the middle of automount in progress, so we can't keep them out of
the area that has to deal with those, more's the pity...

Most of the callers of lookup_one_len_unlocked() treat negatives are
ERR_PTR(-ENOENT). Provide a helper that would do just that. Note
that a pinned positive dentry remains positive - it's ->d_inode is
stable, etc.; a pinned _negative_ dentry can become positive at any
point as long as you are not holding its parent at least shared.
So using lookup_one_len_unlocked() needs to be careful;
lookup_positive_unlocked() is safer and that's what the callers
end up open-coding anyway.
Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
There are 4 callers; two proceed to check if result is positive and
fail with ENOENT if it isn't; one (in handle_lookup_down()) is
guaranteed to yield positive and one (in lookup_fast()) is _preceded_
by positivity check.
However, follow_managed() on a negative dentry is a (fairly cheap)
no-op on anything other than autofs. And negative autofs dentries
are never hashed, so lookup_fast() is not going to run into one
of those. Moreover, successful follow_managed() on a _positive_
dentry never yields a negative one (and we significantly rely upon
that in callers of lookup_fast()).
In other words, we can easily transpose the positivity check and
the call of follow_managed() in lookup_fast(). And that allows
to fold the positivity check *into* follow_managed(), simplifying
life for the code downstream of its calls.

The rules for nd->root are messy:
* if we have LOOKUP_ROOT, it doesn't contribute to refcounts
* if we have LOOKUP_RCU, it doesn't contribute to refcounts
* if nd->root.mnt is NULL, it doesn't contribute to refcounts
* otherwise it does contribute
terminate_walk() needs to drop the references if they are contributing.
So everything else should be careful not to confuse it, leading to
rather convoluted code.
It's easier to keep track of whether we'd grabbed the reference(s)
explicitly. Use a new flag for that. Don't bother with zeroing
nd->root.mnt on unlazy failures and in terminate_walk - it's not
needed anymore (terminate_walk() won't care and the next path_init()
will zero nd->root in !LOOKUP_ROOT case anyway).
Resulting rules for nd->root refcounts are much simpler: they are
contributing iff LOOKUP_ROOT_GRABBED is set in nd->flags.

Use 'READ_ONCE(inode->i_link)' to explicitly support filesystems caching
the symlink target in ->i_link later if it was unavailable at iget()
time, or wasn't easily available. I'll be doing this in fscrypt, to
improve the performance of encrypted symlinks on ext4, f2fs, and ubifs.
->i_link will start NULL and may later be set to a non-NULL value by a
smp_store_release() or cmpxchg_release(). READ_ONCE() is needed on the
read side. smp_load_acquire() is unnecessary because only a data
dependency barrier is required. (Thanks to Al for pointing this out.)

It got seriously simplified since the last cycle; documentation is

to fix it up after -rc1 instead.
That pile allows to do followup work in independent branches, which

Because the new API passes in key,value parameters, match_token() cannot be
used with it. Instead, provide three new helpers to aid with parsing:
(1) fs_parse(). This takes a parameter and a simple static description of
all the parameters and maps the key name to an ID. It returns 1 on a
match, 0 on no match if unknowns should be ignored and some other
negative error code on a parse error.
The parameter description includes a list of key names to IDs, desired
parameter types and a list of enumeration name -> ID mappings.
[!] Note that for the moment I've required that the key->ID mapping
array is expected to be sorted and unterminated. The size of the
array is noted in the fsconfig_parser struct. This allows me to use
bsearch(), but I'm not sure any performance gain is worth the hassle
of requiring people to keep the array sorted.
The parameter type array is sized according to the number of parameter
IDs and is indexed directly. The optional enum mapping array is an
unterminated, unsorted list and the size goes into the fsconfig_parser
struct.
The function can do some additional things:
(a) If it's not ambiguous and no value is given, the prefix "no" on
a key name is permitted to indicate that the parameter should
be considered negatory.
(b) If the desired type is a single simple integer, it will perform
an appropriate conversion and store the result in a union in
the parse result.
(c) If the desired type is an enumeration, {key ID, name} will be
looked up in the enumeration list and the matching value will
be stored in the parse result union.
(d) Optionally generate an error if the key is unrecognised.
This is called something like:
enum rdt_param {
Opt_cdp,
Opt_cdpl2,
Opt_mba_mpbs,
nr__rdt_params
};
const struct fs_parameter_spec rdt_param_specs[nr__rdt_params] = {
[Opt_cdp] = { fs_param_is_bool },
[Opt_cdpl2] = { fs_param_is_bool },
[Opt_mba_mpbs] = { fs_param_is_bool },
};
const const char *const rdt_param_keys[nr__rdt_params] = {
[Opt_cdp] = "cdp",
[Opt_cdpl2] = "cdpl2",
[Opt_mba_mpbs] = "mba_mbps",
};
const struct fs_parameter_description rdt_parser = {
.name = "rdt",
.nr_params = nr__rdt_params,
.keys = rdt_param_keys,
.specs = rdt_param_specs,
.no_source = true,
};
int rdt_parse_param(struct fs_context *fc,
struct fs_parameter *param)
{
struct fs_parse_result parse;
struct rdt_fs_context *ctx = rdt_fc2context(fc);
int ret;
ret = fs_parse(fc, &rdt_parser, param, &parse);
if (ret < 0)
return ret;
switch (parse.key) {
case Opt_cdp:
ctx->enable_cdpl3 = true;
return 0;
case Opt_cdpl2:
ctx->enable_cdpl2 = true;
return 0;
case Opt_mba_mpbs:
ctx->enable_mba_mbps = true;
return 0;
}
return -EINVAL;
}
(2) fs_lookup_param(). This takes a { dirfd, path, LOOKUP_EMPTY? } or
string value and performs an appropriate path lookup to convert it
into a path object, which it will then return.
If the desired type was a blockdev, the type of the looked up inode
will be checked to make sure it is one.
This can be used like:
enum foo_param {
Opt_source,
nr__foo_params
};
const struct fs_parameter_spec foo_param_specs[nr__foo_params] = {
[Opt_source] = { fs_param_is_blockdev },
};
const char *char foo_param_keys[nr__foo_params] = {
[Opt_source] = "source",
};
const struct constant_table foo_param_alt_keys[] = {
{ "device", Opt_source },
};
const struct fs_parameter_description foo_parser = {
.name = "foo",
.nr_params = nr__foo_params,
.nr_alt_keys = ARRAY_SIZE(foo_param_alt_keys),
.keys = foo_param_keys,
.alt_keys = foo_param_alt_keys,
.specs = foo_param_specs,
};
int foo_parse_param(struct fs_context *fc,
struct fs_parameter *param)
{
struct fs_parse_result parse;
struct foo_fs_context *ctx = foo_fc2context(fc);
int ret;
ret = fs_parse(fc, &foo_parser, param, &parse);
if (ret < 0)
return ret;
switch (parse.key) {
case Opt_source:
return fs_lookup_param(fc, &foo_parser, param,
&parse, &ctx->source);
default:
return -EINVAL;
}
}
(3) lookup_constant(). This takes a table of named constants and looks up
the given name within it. The table is expected to be sorted such
that bsearch() be used upon it.
Possibly I should require the table be terminated and just use a
for-loop to scan it instead of using bsearch() to reduce hassle.
Tables look something like:
static const struct constant_table bool_names[] = {
{ "0", false },
{ "1", true },
{ "false", false },
{ "no", false },
{ "true", true },
{ "yes", true },
};
and a lookup is done with something like:
b = lookup_constant(bool_names, param->string, -1);
Additionally, optional validation routines for the parameter description
are provided that can be enabled at compile time. A later patch will
invoke these when a filesystem is registered.

This reverts commit 55956b59df.
commit 55956b59df ("vfs: Allow userns root to call mknod on owned filesystems.")
enabled mknod() in user namespaces for userns root if CAP_MKNOD is
available. However, these device nodes are useless since any filesystem
mounted from a non-initial user namespace will set the SB_I_NODEV flag on
the filesystem. Now, when a device node s created in a non-initial user
namespace a call to open() on said device node will fail due to:
bool may_open_dev(const struct path *path)
{
return !(path->mnt->mnt_flags & MNT_NODEV) &&
!(path->mnt->mnt_sb->s_iflags & SB_I_NODEV);
}
The problem with this is that as of the aforementioned commit mknod()
creates partially functional device nodes in non-initial user namespaces.
In particular, it has the consequence that as of the aforementioned commit
open() will be more privileged with respect to device nodes than mknod().
Before it was the other way around. Specifically, if mknod() succeeded
then it was transparent for any userspace application that a fatal error
must have occured when open() failed.
All of this breaks multiple userspace workloads and a widespread assumption
about how to handle mknod(). Basically, all container runtimes and systemd
live by the slogan "ask for forgiveness not permission" when running user
namespace workloads. For mknod() the assumption is that if the syscall
succeeds the device nodes are useable irrespective of whether it succeeds
in a non-initial user namespace or not. This logic was chosen explicitly
to allow for the glorious day when mknod() will actually be able to create
fully functional device nodes in user namespaces.
A specific problem people are already running into when running 4.18 rc
kernels are failing systemd services. For any distro that is run in a
container systemd services started with the PrivateDevices= property set
will fail to start since the device nodes in question cannot be
opened (cf. the arguments in [1]).
Full disclosure, Seth made the very sound argument that it is already
possible to end up with partially functional device nodes. Any filesystem
mounted with MS_NODEV set will allow mknod() to succeed but will not allow
open() to succeed. The difference to the case here is that the MS_NODEV
case is transparent to userspace since it is an explicitly set mount option
while the SB_I_NODEV case is an implicit property enforced by the kernel
and hence opaque to userspace.

Disallows open of FIFOs or regular files not owned by the user in world
writable sticky directories, unless the owner is the same as that of the
directory or the file is opened without the O_CREAT flag. The purpose
is to make data spoofing attacks harder. This protection can be turned
on and off separately for FIFOs and regular files via sysctl, just like
the symlinks/hardlinks protection. This patch is based on Openwall's
"HARDEN_FIFO" feature by Solar Designer.
This is a brief list of old vulnerabilities that could have been prevented
by this feature, some of them even allow for privilege escalation:
CVE-2000-1134
CVE-2007-3852
CVE-2008-0525
CVE-2009-0416
CVE-2011-4834
CVE-2015-1838
CVE-2015-7442
CVE-2016-7489
This list is not meant to be complete. It's difficult to track down all
vulnerabilities of this kind because they were often reported without any
mention of this particular attack vector. In fact, before
hardlinks/symlinks restrictions, fifos/regular files weren't the favorite
vehicle to exploit them.

There is a check for IS_ERR(name) immediately upstream of each call
of link_path_walk(name, nd), with positives treated as if link_path_walk()
failed with PTR_ERR(name). Taking that check into link_path_walk() itself
simplifies things nicely.

Parallel to FILE_CREATED, goes into ->f_mode instead of *opened.
NFS is a bit of a wart here - it doesn't have file at the point
where FILE_CREATED used to be set, so we need to propagate it
there (for now). IMA is another one (here and everywhere)...
Note that this needs do_dentry_open() to leave old bits in ->f_mode
alone - we want it to preserve FMODE_CREATED if it had been already
set (no other bit can be there).

These checks are better off in do_dentry_open(); the reason we couldn't
put them there used to be that callers couldn't tell what kind of cleanup
would do_dentry_open() failure call for. Now that we have FMODE_OPENED,
cleanup is the same in all cases - it's simply fput(). So let's fold
that into do_dentry_open(), as Christoph's patch tried to.

Alter the dynroot mount so that cells created by manipulation of
/proc/fs/afs/cells and /proc/fs/afs/rootcell and by specification of a root
cell as a module parameter will cause directories for those cells to be
created in the dynamic root superblock for the network namespace[*].
To this end:
(1) Only one dynamic root superblock is now created per network namespace
and this is shared between all attempts to mount it. This makes it
easier to find the superblock to modify.
(2) When a dynamic root superblock is created, the list of cells is walked
and directories created for each cell already defined.
(3) When a new cell is added, if a dynamic root superblock exists, a
directory is created for it.
(4) When a cell is destroyed, the directory is removed.
(5) These directories are created by calling lookup_one_len() on the root
dir which automatically creates them if they don't exist.
[*] Inasmuch as network namespaces are currently supported here.

This reverts commit cab64df194.
Having vfs_open() in some cases drop the reference to
struct file combined with
error = vfs_open(path, f, cred);
if (error) {
put_filp(f);
return ERR_PTR(error);
}
return f;
is flat-out wrong. It used to be
error = vfs_open(path, f, cred);
if (!error) {
/* from now on we need fput() to dispose of f */
error = open_check_o_direct(f);
if (error) {
fput(f);
f = ERR_PTR(error);
}
} else {
put_filp(f);
f = ERR_PTR(error);
}
and sure, having that open_check_o_direct() boilerplate gotten rid of is
nice, but not that way...
Worse, another call chain (via finish_open()) is FUBAR now wrt
FILE_OPENED handling - in that case we get error returned, with file
already hit by fput() *AND* FILE_OPENED not set. Guess what happens in
path_openat(), when it hits
if (!(opened & FILE_OPENED)) {
BUG_ON(!error);
put_filp(file);
}
The root cause of all that crap is that the callers of do_dentry_open()
have no way to tell which way did it fail; while that could be fixed up
(by passing something like int *opened to do_dentry_open() and have it
marked if we'd called ->open()), it's probably much too late in the
cycle to do so right now.

Once upon a time ->rmdir() instances used to check if victim inode
had more than one (in-core) reference and failed with -EBUSY if it
had. The reason was race avoidance - emptiness check is worthless
if somebody could just go and create new objects in the victim
directory afterwards.
With introduction of dcache the checks had been replaced with
checking the refcount of dentry. However, since a cached negative
lookup leaves a negative child dentry, such check had lead to false
positives - with empty foo/ doing stat foo/bar before rmdir foo
ended up with -EBUSY unless the negative dentry of foo/bar happened
to be evicted by the time of rmdir(2). That had been fixed by
doing shrink_dcache_parent() just before the refcount check.
At the same time, ext2_rmdir() has grown a private solution that
eliminated those -EBUSY - it did something (setting ->i_size to 0)
which made any subsequent ext2_add_entry() fail.
Unfortunately, even with shrink_dcache_parent() the check had been
racy - after all, the victim itself could be found by dcache lookup
just after we'd checked its refcount. That got fixed by a new
helper (dentry_unhash()) that did shrink_dcache_parent() and unhashed
the sucker if its refcount ended up equal to 1. That got called before
->rmdir(), turning the checks in ->rmdir() instances into "if not
unhashed fail with -EBUSY". Which reduced the boilerplate nicely, but
had an unpleasant side effect - now shrink_dcache_parent() had been
done before the emptiness checks, leading to easily triggerable calls
of shrink_dcache_parent() on arbitrary large subtrees, quite possibly
nested into each other.
Several years later the ext2-private trick had been generalized -
(in-core) inodes of dead directories are flagged and calls of
lookup, readdir and all directory-modifying methods were prevented
in so marked directories. Remaining boilerplate in ->rmdir() instances
became redundant and some instances got rid of it.
In 2011 the call of dentry_unhash() got shifted into ->rmdir() instances
and then killed off in all of them. That has lead to another problem,
though - in case of successful rmdir we *want* any (negative) child
dentries dropped and the victim itself made negative. There's no point
keeping cached negative lookups in foo when we can get the negative
lookup of foo itself cached. So shrink_dcache_parent() call had been
restored; unfortunately, it went into the place where dentry_unhash()
used to be, i.e. before the ->rmdir() call. Note that we don't unhash
anymore, so any "is it busy" checks would be racy; fortunately, all of
them are gone.
We should've done that call right *after* successful ->rmdir(). That
reduces contention caused by tree-walking in shrink_dcache_parent()
and, especially, contention caused by evictions in two nested subtrees
going on in parallel. The same goes for directory-overwriting rename() -
the story there had been parallel to that of rmdir().

Pull removal of in-kernel calls to syscalls from Dominik Brodowski:
"System calls are interaction points between userspace and the kernel.
Therefore, system call functions such as sys_xyzzy() or
compat_sys_xyzzy() should only be called from userspace via the
syscall table, but not from elsewhere in the kernel.
At least on 64-bit x86, it will likely be a hard requirement from
v4.17 onwards to not call system call functions in the kernel: It is
better to use use a different calling convention for system calls
there, where struct pt_regs is decoded on-the-fly in a syscall wrapper
which then hands processing over to the actual syscall function. This
means that only those parameters which are actually needed for a
specific syscall are passed on during syscall entry, instead of
filling in six CPU registers with random user space content all the
time (which may cause serious trouble down the call chain). Those
x86-specific patches will be pushed through the x86 tree in the near
future.
Moreover, rules on how data may be accessed may differ between kernel
data and user data. This is another reason why calling sys_xyzzy() is
generally a bad idea, and -- at most -- acceptable in arch-specific
code.
This patchset removes all in-kernel calls to syscall functions in the

I noticed that offsetof(struct filename, iname) is actually 28 on 64
bit platforms, so we always pass an unaligned pointer to
strncpy_from_user. This is mostly a problem for those 64 bit platforms
without HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS, but even on x86_64, unaligned
accesses carry a penalty.
A user-space microbenchmark doing nothing but strncpy_from_user from the
same (aligned) source string runs about 5% faster when the destination
is aligned. That number increases to 20% when the string is long
enough (~32 bytes) that we cross a cache line boundary - that's for
example the case for about half the files a "git status" in a kernel
tree ends up stat'ing.
This won't make any real-life workloads 5%, or even 1%, faster, but path
lookup is common enough that cutting even a few cycles should be
worthwhile. So ensure we always pass an aligned destination pointer to
strncpy_from_user. Instead of explicit padding, simply swap the refcnt
and aname members, as suggested by Al Viro.

client can know they are the same filesystem. The subsets can be from
disjoint directory trees. The nfsv2 and nfsv3 filesystems provides no
way to find the common root of all directory trees exported form the
server with the same filesystem identifier.
The practical result is that in struct super s_root for nfs s_root is
not necessarily the root of the filesystem. The nfs mount code sets
s_root to the root of the first subset of the nfs filesystem that the
kernel mounts.
This effects the dcache invalidation code in generic_shutdown_super
currently called shrunk_dcache_for_umount and that code for years
has gone through an additional list of dentries that might be dentry
trees that need to be freed to accomodate nfs.
When I wrote path_connected I did not realize nfs was so special, and
it's hueristic for avoiding calling is_subdir can fail.
The practical case where this fails is when there is a move of a
directory from the subtree exposed by one nfs mount to the subtree
exposed by another nfs mount. This move can happen either locally or
remotely. With the remote case requiring that the move directory be cached
before the move and that after the move someone walks the path
to where the move directory now exists and in so doing causes the
already cached directory to be moved in the dcache through the magic
of d_splice_alias.
If someone whose working directory is in the move directory or a
subdirectory and now starts calling .. from the initial mount of nfs
(where s_root == mnt_root), then path_connected as a heuristic will
not bother with the is_subdir check. As s_root really is not the root
of the nfs filesystem this heuristic is wrong, and the path may
actually not be connected and path_connected can fail.
The is_subdir function might be cheap enough that we can call it
unconditionally. Verifying that will take some benchmarking and
the result may not be the same on all kernels this fix needs
to be backported to. So I am avoiding that for now.
Filesystems with snapshots such as nilfs and btrfs do something
similar. But as the directory tree of the snapshots are disjoint
from one another and from the main directory tree rename won't move
things between them and this problem will not occur.

Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
When vfs_submount was added the test to limit automounts from
filesystems that with s_user_ns != &init_user_ns accidentially left
in follow_automount. The test was never about any security concerns
and was always about how do we implement this for filesystems whose
s_user_ns != &init_user_ns.
At the moment this check makes no difference as there are no
filesystems that both set FS_USERNS_MOUNT and implement d_automount.
Remove this check now while I am thinking about it so there will not
be odd booby traps for someone who does want to make this combination
work.
vfs_submount still needs improvements to allow this combination to work,
and vfs_submount contains a check that presents a warning.
The autofs4 filesystem could be modified to set FS_USERNS_MOUNT and it would
need not work on this code path, as userspace performs the mounts.

Commit 42f4614821 ("autofs: fix AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT not being honored")
allowed the fstatat(2) system call to properly honor the AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT
flag but introduced a semantic change.
In order to honor AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT a semantic change was made to the
negative dentry case for stat family system calls in follow_automount().
This changed the unconditional triggering of an automount in this case
to no longer be done and an error returned instead.
This has caused more problems than I expected so reverting the change is
needed.
In a discussion with Neil Brown it was concluded that the automount(8)
daemon can implement this change without kernel modifications. So that
will be done instead and the autofs module documentation updated with a
description of the problem and what needs to be done by module users for
this specific case.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the
coccinelle script shown below and apply its output.
For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in
preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the
former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of
ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in
churn.
However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to
correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write
accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining
ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following
coccinelle script:

VFS: Differentiate mount flags (MS_*) from internal superblock flags
VFS: Convert sb->s_flags & MS_RDONLY to sb_rdonly(sb)
vfs: Add sb_rdonly(sb) to query the MS_RDONLY flag on s_flags
The fstatat(2) and statx() calls can pass the flag AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT which
is meant to clear the LOOKUP_AUTOMOUNT flag and prevent triggering of an
automount by the call. But this flag is unconditionally cleared for all
stat family system calls except statx().
stat family system calls have always triggered mount requests for the
negative dentry case in follow_automount() which is intended but prevents
the fstatat(2) and statx() AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT case from being handled.
In order to handle the AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT for both system calls the negative
dentry case in follow_automount() needs to be changed to return ENOENT
when the LOOKUP_AUTOMOUNT flag is clear (and the other required flags are
clear).
AFAICT this change doesn't have any noticable side effects and may, in
some use cases (although I didn't see it in testing) prevent unnecessary
callbacks to the automount daemon.
It's also possible that a stat family call has been made with a path that
is in the process of being mounted by some other process. But stat family
calls should return the automount state of the path as it is "now" so it
shouldn't wait for mount completion.
This is the same semantic as the positive dentry case already handled.

take_dentry_name_snapshot() takes a safe snapshot of dentry name;
if the name is a short one, it gets copied into caller-supplied
structure, otherwise an extra reference to external name is grabbed
(those are never modified). In either case the pointer to stable
string is stored into the same structure.
dentry must be held by the caller of take_dentry_name_snapshot(),
but may be freely dropped afterwards - the snapshot will stay
until destroyed by release_dentry_name_snapshot().
Intended use:
struct name_snapshot s;
take_dentry_name_snapshot(&s, dentry);

access s.name

release_dentry_name_snapshot(&s);

This marks many critical kernel structures for randomization. These are
structures that have been targeted in the past in security exploits, or
contain functions pointers, pointers to function pointer tables, lists,
workqueues, ref-counters, credentials, permissions, or are otherwise
sensitive. This initial list was extracted from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's
code in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my understanding
of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are mine and
don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code.
Left out of this list is task_struct, which requires special handling
and will be covered in a subsequent patch.

The main part is the last commit (fixing mntns_install()); that one
fixes a hard-to-hit race. The fchdir() commit is making fchdir(2) a
bit more robust - it should be impossible to get opened files (even
O_PATH ones) for referral points in the first place, so the existing
checks are OK, but checking the same thing as in chdir(2) is just as
cheap.
The path_init() commit removes a redundant check that shouldn't have
been there in the first place"

Commit afddba49d1 ("fs: introduce write_begin, write_end, and
perform_write aops") introduced AOP_FLAG_UNINTERRUPTIBLE flag which was
checked in pagecache_write_begin(), but that check was removed by
4e02ed4b4a ("fs: remove prepare_write/commit_write").
Between these two commits, commit d9414774dc ("cifs: Convert cifs to
new aops.") added a check in cifs_write_begin(), but that check was soon
removed by commit a98ee8c1c7 ("[CIFS] fix regression in
cifs_write_begin/cifs_write_end").
Therefore, AOP_FLAG_UNINTERRUPTIBLE flag is checked nowhere. Let's
remove this flag. This patch has no functionality changes.

Normal pathname lookup doesn't allow empty pathnames, but using
AT_EMPTY_PATH (with name_to_handle_at() or fstatat(), for example) you
can trigger an empty pathname lookup.
And not only is the RCU lookup in that case entirely unnecessary
(because we'll obviously immediately finalize the end result), it is
actively wrong.
Why? An empth path is a special case that will return the original
'dirfd' dentry - and that dentry may not actually be RCU-free'd,
resulting in a potential use-after-free if we were to initialize the
path lazily under the RCU read lock and depend on complete_walk()
finalizing the dentry.

To support unprivileged users mounting filesystems two permission
checks have to be performed: a test to see if the user allowed to
create a mount in the mount namespace, and a test to see if
the user is allowed to access the specified filesystem.
The automount case is special in that mounting the original filesystem
grants permission to mount the sub-filesystems, to any user who
happens to stumble across the their mountpoint and satisfies the
ordinary filesystem permission checks.
Attempting to handle the automount case by using override_creds
almost works. It preserves the idea that permission to mount
the original filesystem is permission to mount the sub-filesystem.
Unfortunately using override_creds messes up the filesystems
ordinary permission checks.
Solve this by being explicit that a mount is a submount by introducing
vfs_submount, and using it where appropriate.
vfs_submount uses a new mount internal mount flags MS_SUBMOUNT, to let
sget and friends know that a mount is a submount so they can take appropriate
action.
sget and sget_userns are modified to not perform any permission checks
on submounts.
follow_automount is modified to stop using override_creds as that
has proven problemantic.
do_mount is modified to always remove the new MS_SUBMOUNT flag so
that we know userspace will never by able to specify it.
autofs4 is modified to stop using current_real_cred that was put in
there to handle the previous version of submount permission checking.
cifs is modified to pass the mountpoint all of the way down to vfs_submount.
debugfs is modified to pass the mountpoint all of the way down to
trace_automount by adding a new parameter. To make this change easier
a new typedef debugfs_automount_t is introduced to capture the type of
the debugfs automount function.
