Once want_mount_setattr() has returned a positive, it does require
finish_mount_kattr() to release ->mnt_userns. Failing do_mount_setattr()
does not change that.
As the result, we can end up leaking userns and possibly mnt_idmap as
well.

under it
If we are propagating across the userns boundary, we need to lock the
mounts added there. However, in case when something has already
been mounted there and we end up sliding a new tree under that,
the stuff that had been there before should not get locked.
IOW, lock_mnt_tree() should be called before we reparent the
preexisting tree on top of what we are adding.

collect_mounts() has several problems - one can't iterate over the results
directly, so it has to be done with callback passed to iterate_mounts();
it has an oopsable race with d_invalidate(); it creates temporary clones
of mounts invisibly for sync umount (IOW, you can have non-lazy umount
succeed leaving filesystem not mounted anywhere and yet still busy).
A saner approach is to give caller an array of struct path that would pin
every mount in a subtree, without cloning any mounts.
* collect_mounts()/drop_collected_mounts()/iterate_mounts() is gone
* collect_paths(where, preallocated, size) gives either ERR_PTR(-E...) or
a pointer to array of struct path, one for each chunk of tree visible under
'where' (i.e. the first element is a copy of where, followed by (mount,root)
for everything mounted under it - the same set collect_mounts() would give).
Unlike collect_mounts(), the mounts are *not* cloned - we just get pinning
references to the roots of subtrees in the caller's namespace.
Array is terminated by {NULL, NULL} struct path. If it fits into
preallocated array (on-stack, normally), that's where it goes; otherwise
it's allocated by kmalloc_array(). Passing 0 as size means that 'preallocated'
is ignored (and expected to be NULL).
* drop_collected_paths(paths, preallocated) is given the array returned
by an earlier call of collect_paths() and the preallocated array passed to that
call. All mount/dentry references are dropped and array is kfree'd if it's not
equal to 'preallocated'.
* instead of iterate_mounts(), users should just iterate over array
of struct path - nothing exotic is needed for that. Existing users (all in
audit_tree.c) are converted.

What we want is to verify there is that clone won't expose something
hidden by a mount we wouldn't be able to undo. "Wouldn't be able to undo"
may be a result of MNT_LOCKED on a child, but it may also come from
lacking admin rights in the userns of the namespace mount belongs to.
clone_private_mnt() checks the former, but not the latter.
There's a number of rather confusing CAP_SYS_ADMIN checks in various
userns during the mount, especially with the new mount API; they serve
different purposes and in case of clone_private_mnt() they usually,
but not always end up covering the missing check mentioned above.

... and fix the breakage in anon-to-anon case. There are two cases
acceptable for do_move_mount() and mixing checks for those is making
things hard to follow.
One case is move of a subtree in caller's namespace.
* source and destination must be in caller's namespace
* source must be detachable from parent
Another is moving the entire anon namespace elsewhere
* source must be the root of anon namespace
* target must either in caller's namespace or in a suitable
anon namespace (see may_use_mount() for details).
* target must not be in the same namespace as source.
It's really easier to follow if tests are *not* mixed together...

Mounting overlayfs with a directory on real rootfs (initramfs)
as upperdir has failed with following message since commit
db04662e2f4f ("fs: allow detached mounts in clone_private_mount()").
[ 4.080134] overlayfs: failed to clone upperpath
Overlayfs mount uses clone_private_mount() to create internal mount
for the underlying layers.
The commit made clone_private_mount() reject real rootfs because
it does not have a parent mount and is in the initial mount namespace,
that is not an anonymous mount namespace.
This issue can be fixed by modifying the permission check
of clone_private_mount() following [1].

9ffb14ef61ba "move_mount: allow to add a mount into an existing group"
breaks assertions on ->mnt_share/->mnt_slave. For once, the data structures
in question are actually documented.
Documentation/filesystem/sharedsubtree.rst:
All vfsmounts in a peer group have the same ->mnt_master. If it is
non-NULL, they form a contiguous (ordered) segment of slave list.
do_set_group() puts a mount into the same place in propagation graph
as the old one. As the result, if old mount gets events from somewhere
and is not a pure event sink, new one needs to be placed next to the
old one in the slave list the old one's on. If it is a pure event
sink, we only need to make sure the new one doesn't end up in the
middle of some peer group.
"move_mount: allow to add a mount into an existing group" ends up putting
the new one in the beginning of list; that's definitely not going to be
in the middle of anything, so that's fine for case when old is not marked
shared. In case when old one _is_ marked shared (i.e. is not a pure event
sink), that breaks the assumptions of propagation graph iterators.
Put the new mount next to the old one on the list - that does the right thing
in "old is marked shared" case and is just as correct as the current behaviour
if old is not marked shared (kudos to Pavel for pointing that out - my original
suggested fix changed behaviour in the "nor marked" case, which complicated
things for no good reason).

Holding namespace_sem is enough to make sure that result remains valid.
It is *not* enough to avoid false negatives from __lookup_mnt(). Mounts
can be unhashed outside of namespace_sem (stuck children getting detached
on final mntput() of lazy-umounted mount) and having an unrelated mount
removed from the hash chain while we traverse it may end up with false
negative from __lookup_mnt(). We need to sample and recheck the seqlock
component of mount_lock...
Bug predates the introduction of path_overmount() - it had come from
the code in finish_automount() that got abstracted into that helper.

propagate_mnt() does not attach anything to mounts created during
propagate_mnt() itself. What's more, anything on ->mnt_slave_list
of such new mount must also be new, so we don't need to even look
there.
When move_mount() had been introduced, we've got an additional
class of mounts to skip - if we are moving from anon namespace,
we do not want to propagate to mounts we are moving (i.e. all
mounts in that anon namespace).
Unfortunately, the part about "everything on their ->mnt_slave_list
will also be ignorable" is not true - if we have propagation graph
A -> B -> C
and do OPEN_TREE_CLONE open_tree() of B, we get
A -> [B <-> B'] -> C
as propagation graph, where B' is a clone of B in our detached tree.
Making B private will result in
A -> B' -> C
C still gets propagation from A, as it would after making B private
if we hadn't done that open_tree(), but now the propagation goes
through B'. Trying to move_mount() our detached tree on subdirectory
in A should have
* moved B' on that subdirectory in A
* skipped the corresponding subdirectory in B' itself
* copied B' on the corresponding subdirectory in C.
As it is, the logics in propagation_next() and friends ends up
skipping propagation into C, since it doesn't consider anything
downstream of B'.
IOW, walking the propagation graph should only skip the ->mnt_slave_list
of new mounts; the only places where the check for "in that one
anon namespace" are applicable are propagate_one() (where we should
treat that as the same kind of thing as "mountpoint we are looking
at is not visible in the mount we are looking at") and
propagation_would_overmount(). The latter is better dealt with
in the caller (can_move_mount_beneath()); on the first call of
propagation_would_overmount() the test is always false, on the
second it is always true in "move from anon namespace" case and
always false in "move within our namespace" one, so it's easier
to just use check_mnt() before bothering with the second call and
be done with that.

Currently the calling conventions for ->d_automount() instances have
an odd wart - returned new mount to be attached is expected to have
refcount 2.
That kludge is intended to make sure that mark_mounts_for_expiry() called
before we get around to attaching that new mount to the tree won't decide
to take it out. finish_automount() drops the extra reference after it's
done with attaching mount to the tree - or drops the reference twice in
case of error. ->d_automount() instances have rather counterintuitive
boilerplate in them.
There's a much simpler approach: have mark_mounts_for_expiry() skip the
mounts that are yet to be mounted. And to hell with grabbing/dropping
those extra references. Makes for simpler correctness analysis, at that...

Normally do_lock_mount(path, _) is locking a mountpoint pinned by
*path and at the time when matching unlock_mount() unlocks that
location it is still pinned by the same thing.
Unfortunately, for 'beneath' case it's no longer that simple -
the object being locked is not the one *path points to. It's the
mountpoint of path->mnt. The thing is, without sufficient locking
->mnt_parent may change under us and none of the locks are held
at that point. The rules are
* mount_lock stabilizes m->mnt_parent for any mount m.
* namespace_sem stabilizes m->mnt_parent, provided that
m is mounted.
* if either of the above holds and refcount of m is positive,
we are guaranteed the same for refcount of m->mnt_parent.
namespace_sem nests inside inode_lock(), so do_lock_mount() has
to take inode_lock() before grabbing namespace_sem. It does
recheck that path->mnt is still mounted in the same place after
getting namespace_sem, and it does take care to pin the dentry.
It is needed, since otherwise we might end up with racing mount --move
(or umount) happening while we were getting locks; in that case
dentry would no longer be a mountpoint and could've been evicted
on memory pressure along with its inode - not something you want
when grabbing lock on that inode.
However, pinning a dentry is not enough - the matching mount is
also pinned only by the fact that path->mnt is mounted on top it
and at that point we are not holding any locks whatsoever, so
the same kind of races could end up with all references to
that mount gone just as we are about to enter inode_lock().
If that happens, we are left with filesystem being shut down while
we are holding a dentry reference on it; results are not pretty.
What we need to do is grab both dentry and mount at the same time;
that makes inode_lock() safe *and* avoids the problem with fs getting
shut down under us. After taking namespace_sem we verify that
path->mnt is still mounted (which stabilizes its ->mnt_parent) and
check that it's still mounted at the same place. From that point
on to the matching namespace_unlock() we are guaranteed that
mount/dentry pair we'd grabbed are also pinned by being the mountpoint
of path->mnt, so we can quietly drop both the dentry reference (as
the current code does) and mnt one - it's OK to do under namespace_sem,
since we are not dropping the final refs.
That solves the problem on do_lock_mount() side; unlock_mount()
also has one, since dentry is guaranteed to stay pinned only until
the namespace_unlock(). That's easy to fix - just have inode_unlock()
done earlier, while it's still pinned by mp->m_dentry.

mounts. This limitaton prevents various use-cases. For example, the
ability to mount a subdirectory without ever having to make the
whole filesystem visible first.
The current permission modelis:
(1) Check that the caller is privileged over the owning user
namespace of it's current mount namespace.
(2) Check that the caller is located in the mount namespace of the
mount it wants to create a detached copy of.
While it is not strictly necessary to do it this way it is
consistently applied in the new mount api. This model will also be
used when allowing the creation of detached mount from another
detached mount.
The (1) requirement can simply be met by performing the same check
as for the non-detached case, i.e., verify that the caller is
privileged over its current mount namespace.
To meet the (2) requirement it must be possible to infer the origin
mount namespace that the anonymous mount namespace of the detached
mount was created from.
The origin mount namespace of an anonymous mount is the mount
namespace that the mounts that were copied into the anonymous mount
namespace originate from.
In order to check the origin mount namespace of an anonymous mount
namespace the sequence number of the original mount namespace is
recorded in the anonymous mount namespace.
With this in place it is possible to perform an equivalent check
(2') to (2). The origin mount namespace of the anonymous mount
namespace must be the same as the caller's mount namespace. To
establish this the sequence number of the caller's mount namespace
and the origin sequence number of the anonymous mount namespace are
compared.
The caller is always located in a non-anonymous mount namespace
since anonymous mount namespaces cannot be setns()ed into. The
caller's mount namespace will thus always have a valid sequence
number.
The owning namespace of any mount namespace, anonymous or
non-anonymous, can never change. A mount attached to a
non-anonymous mount namespace can never change mount namespace.
If the sequence number of the non-anonymous mount namespace and the
origin sequence number of the anonymous mount namespace match, the
owning namespaces must match as well.
Hence, the capability check on the owning namespace of the caller's
mount namespace ensures that the caller has the ability to copy the
mount tree.
- Allow mount detached mounts on detached mounts
Currently, detached mounts can only be mounted onto attached
mounts. This limitation makes it impossible to assemble a new
private rootfs and move it into place. Instead, a detached tree
must be created, attached, then mounted open and then either moved
or detached again. Lift this restriction.
In order to allow mounting detached mounts onto other detached
mounts the same permission model used for creating detached mounts
from detached mounts can be used (cf. above).
Allowing to mount detached mounts onto detached mounts leaves three
cases to consider:
(1) The source mount is an attached mount and the target mount is
a detached mount. This would be equivalent to moving a mount
between different mount namespaces. A caller could move an
attached mount to a detached mount. The detached mount can now
be freely attached to any mount namespace. This changes the
current delegatioh model significantly for no good reason. So
this will fail.
(2) Anonymous mount namespaces are always attached fully, i.e., it
is not possible to only attach a subtree of an anoymous mount
namespace. This simplifies the implementation and reasoning.
Consequently, if the anonymous mount namespace of the source
detached mount and the target detached mount are the identical
the mount request will fail.
(3) The source mount's anonymous mount namespace is different from
the target mount's anonymous mount namespace.
In this case the source anonymous mount namespace of the
source mount tree must be freed after its mounts have been
moved to the target anonymous mount namespace. The source
anonymous mount namespace must be empty afterwards.
By allowing to mount detached mounts onto detached mounts a caller
may do the following:
fd_tree1 = open_tree(-EBADF, "/mnt", OPEN_TREE_CLONE)
fd_tree2 = open_tree(-EBADF, "/tmp", OPEN_TREE_CLONE)
fd_tree1 and fd_tree2 refer to two different detached mount trees
that belong to two different anonymous mount namespace.
It is important to note that fd_tree1 and fd_tree2 both refer to
the root of their respective anonymous mount namespaces.
By allowing to mount detached mounts onto detached mounts the
caller may now do:
move_mount(fd_tree1, "", fd_tree2, "",
MOVE_MOUNT_F_EMPTY_PATH | MOVE_MOUNT_T_EMPTY_PATH)
This will cause the detached mount referred to by fd_tree1 to be
mounted on top of the detached mount referred to by fd_tree2.
Thus, the detached mount fd_tree1 is moved from its separate
anonymous mount namespace into fd_tree2's anonymous mount
namespace.
It also means that while fd_tree2 continues to refer to the root of
its respective anonymous mount namespace fd_tree1 doesn't anymore.
This has the consequence that only fd_tree2 can be moved to another
anonymous or non-anonymous mount namespace. Moving fd_tree1 will
now fail as fd_tree1 doesn't refer to the root of an anoymous mount
namespace anymore.
Now fd_tree1 and fd_tree2 refer to separate detached mount trees
referring to the same anonymous mount namespace.
This is conceptually fine. The new mount api does allow for this to
happen already via:
mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /mnt
mkdir -p /mnt/A
mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /mnt/A
fd_tree3 = open_tree(-EBADF, "/mnt", OPEN_TREE_CLONE | AT_RECURSIVE)
fd_tree4 = open_tree(-EBADF, "/mnt/A", 0)
Both fd_tree3 and fd_tree4 refer to two different detached mount
trees but both detached mount trees refer to the same anonymous
mount namespace. An as with fd_tree1 and fd_tree2, only fd_tree3
may be moved another mount namespace as fd_tree3 refers to the root
of the anonymous mount namespace just while fd_tree4 doesn't.
However, there's an important difference between the
fd_tree3/fd_tree4 and the fd_tree1/fd_tree2 example.
Closing fd_tree4 and releasing the respective struct file will have
no further effect on fd_tree3's detached mount tree.
However, closing fd_tree3 will cause the mount tree and the
respective anonymous mount namespace to be destroyed causing the
detached mount tree of fd_tree4 to be invalid for further mounting.
By allowing to mount detached mounts on detached mounts as in the
fd_tree1/fd_tree2 example both struct files will affect each other.
Both fd_tree1 and fd_tree2 refer to struct files that have
FMODE_NEED_UNMOUNT set.
To handle this we use the fact that @fd_tree1 will have a parent
mount once it has been attached to @fd_tree2.
When dissolve_on_fput() is called the mount that has been passed in
will refer to the root of the anonymous mount namespace. If it
doesn't it would mean that mounts are leaked. So before allowing to
mount detached mounts onto detached mounts this would be a bug.
Now that detached mounts can be mounted onto detached mounts it
just means that the mount has been attached to another anonymous
mount namespace and thus dissolve_on_fput() must not unmount the
mount tree or free the anonymous mount namespace as the file
referring to the root of the namespace hasn't been closed yet.
If it had been closed yet it would be obvious because the mount
namespace would be NULL, i.e., the @fd_tree1 would have already
been unmounted. If @fd_tree1 hasn't been unmounted yet and has a
parent mount it is safe to skip any cleanup as closing @fd_tree2
will take care of all cleanup operations.
- Allow mount propagation for detached mount trees
In commit ee2e3f50629f ("mount: fix mounting of detached mounts
onto targets that reside on shared mounts") I fixed a bug where
propagating the source mount tree of an anonymous mount namespace
into a target mount tree of a non-anonymous mount namespace could
be used to trigger an integer overflow in the non-anonymous mount
namespace causing any new mounts to fail.
The cause of this was that the propagation algorithm was unable to
recognize mounts from the source mount tree that were already
propagated into the target mount tree and then reappeared as
propagation targets when walking the destination propagation mount
tree.
When fixing this I disabled mount propagation into anonymous mount
namespaces. Make it possible for anonymous mount namespace to
receive mount propagation events correctly. This is now also a
correctness issue now that we allow mounting detached mount trees
onto detached mount trees.
Mark the source anonymous mount namespace with MNTNS_PROPAGATING
indicating that all mounts belonging to this mount namespace are
currently in the process of being propagated and make the
propagation algorithm discard those if they appear as propagation
targets"

Pull vfs mount updates from Christian Brauner:
- Mount notifications
The day has come where we finally provide a new api to listen for
mount topology changes outside of /proc/<pid>/mountinfo. A mount
namespace file descriptor can be supplied and registered with
fanotify to listen for mount topology changes.
Currently notifications for mount, umount and moving mounts are
generated. The generated notification record contains the unique
mount id of the mount.
The listmount() and statmount() api can be used to query detailed
information about the mount using the received unique mount id.
This allows userspace to figure out exactly how the mount topology
changed without having to generating diffs of /proc/<pid>/mountinfo
in userspace.
- Support O_PATH file descriptors with FSCONFIG_SET_FD in the new mount
api
- Support detached mounts in overlayfs
Since last cycle we support specifying overlayfs layers via file
descriptors. However, we don't allow detached mounts which means
userspace cannot user file descriptors received via
open_tree(OPEN_TREE_CLONE) and fsmount() directly. They have to
attach them to a mount namespace via move_mount() first.
This is cumbersome and means they have to undo mounts via umount().
Allow them to directly use detached mounts.
- Allow to retrieve idmappings with statmount
Currently it isn't possible to figure out what idmapping has been
attached to an idmapped mount. Add an extension to statmount() which
allows to read the idmapping from the mount.
- Allow creating idmapped mounts from mounts that are already idmapped
So far it isn't possible to allow the creation of idmapped mounts
from already idmapped mounts as this has significant lifetime
implications. Make the creation of idmapped mounts atomic by allow to
pass struct mount_attr together with the open_tree_attr() system call
allowing to solve these issues without complicating VFS lookup in any
way.
The system call has in general the benefit that creating a detached
mount and applying mount attributes to it becomes an atomic operation
for userspace.
- Add a way to query statmount() for supported options
Allow userspace to query which mount information can be retrieved
through statmount().

The previous patch series only enabled the creation of detached mounts
from detached mounts that were created via open_tree(). In such cases we
know that the origin sequence number for the newly created anonymous
mount namespace will be set to the sequence number of the mount
namespace the source mount belonged to.
But fsmount() creates an anonymous mount namespace that does not have an
origin mount namespace as the anonymous mount namespace was derived from
a filesystem context created via fsopen().
Account for this case and allow the creation of detached mounts from
mounts created via fsmount(). Consequently, any such detached mount
created from an fsmount() mount will also have a zero origin sequence
number.
This allows to mount subdirectories without ever having to expose the
filesystem to a a non-anonymous mount namespace:
fd_context = sys_fsopen("tmpfs", 0);
sys_fsconfig(fd_context, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE, NULL, NULL, 0);
fd_tmpfs = sys_fsmount(fd_context, 0, 0);
mkdirat(fd_tmpfs, "subdir", 0755);
fd_tree = sys_open_tree(fd_tmpfs, "subdir", OPEN_TREE_CLONE);
sys_move_mount(fd_tree, "", -EBADF, "/mnt", MOVE_MOUNT_F_EMPTY_PATH);

Currently, detached mounts can only be mounted onto attached mounts.
This limitation makes it impossible to assemble a new private rootfs and
move it into place. That's an extremely powerful concept for container
and service workloads that we should support.
Right now, a detached tree must be created, attached, then it can gain
additional mounts and then it can either be moved (if it doesn't reside
under a shared mount) or a detached mount created again. Lift this
restriction.
In order to allow mounting detached mounts onto other detached mounts
the same permission model used for creating detached mounts from
detached mounts can be used:
(1) Check that the caller is privileged over the owning user namespace
of it's current mount namespace.
(2) Check that the caller is located in the mount namespace of the mount

The origin mount namespace of the anonymous mount namespace must be the

owning namespaces must match as well.
Hence, the capability check on the owning namespace of the caller's

Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org> says:
Currently, it isn't possible to change the idmapping of an idmapped
mount. This is becoming an obstacle for various use-cases.
/* idmapped home directories with systemd-homed */
On newer systems /home is can be an idmapped mount such that each file
on disk is owned by 65536 and a subfolder exists for foreign id ranges
such as containers. For example, a home directory might look like this
(using an arbitrary folder as an example):
user1@localhost:~/data/mount-idmapped$ ls -al /data/
total 16
drwxrwxrwx 1 65536 65536 36 Jan 27 12:15 .
drwxrwxr-x 1 root root 184 Jan 27 12:06 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 65536 65536 0 Jan 27 12:07 aaa
-rw-r--r-- 1 65536 65536 0 Jan 27 12:07 bbb
-rw-r--r-- 1 65536 65536 0 Jan 27 12:07 cc
drwxr-xr-x 1 2147352576 2147352576 0 Jan 27 19:06 containers
When logging in home is mounted as an idmapped mount with the following
idmappings:
65536:$(id -u):1 // uid mapping
65536:$(id -g):1 // gid mapping
2147352576:2147352576:65536 // uid mapping
2147352576:2147352576:65536 // gid mapping
So for a user with uid/gid 1000 an idmapped /home would like like this:
user1@localhost:~/data/mount-idmapped$ ls -aln /mnt/
total 16
drwxrwxrwx 1 1000 1000 36 Jan 27 12:15 .
drwxrwxr-x 1 0 0 184 Jan 27 12:06 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 1000 1000 0 Jan 27 12:07 aaa
-rw-r--r-- 1 1000 1000 0 Jan 27 12:07 bbb
-rw-r--r-- 1 1000 1000 0 Jan 27 12:07 cc
drwxr-xr-x 1 2147352576 2147352576 0 Jan 27 19:06 containers
In other words, 65536 is mapped to the user's uid/gid and the range
2147352576 up to 2147352576 + 65536 is an identity mapping for
containers.
When a container is started a transient uid/gid range is allocated
outside of both mappings of the idmapped mount. For example, the
container might get the idmapping:
$ cat /proc/1742611/uid_map
0 537985024 65536
This container will be allowed to write to disk within the allocated
foreign id range 2147352576 to 2147352576 + 65536. To do this an
idmapped mount must be created from an already idmapped mount such that:
- The mappings for the user's uid/gid must be dropped, i.e., the
following mappings are removed:
65536:$(id -u):1 // uid mapping
65536:$(id -g):1 // gid mapping
- A mapping for the transient uid/gid range to the foreign uid/gid range
is added:
2147352576:537985024:65536
In combination this will mean that the container will write to disk
within the foreign id range 2147352576 to 2147352576 + 65536.
/* nested containers */
When the outer container makes use of idmapped mounts it isn't posssible
to create an idmapped mount for the inner container with a differen
idmapping from the outer container's idmapped mount.
There are other usecases and the two above just serve as an illustration
of the problem.
This patchset makes it possible to create a new idmapped mount from an
already idmapped mount. It aims to adhere to current performance
constraints and requirements:
- Idmapped mounts aim to have near zero performance implications for
path lookup. That is why no refernce counting, locking or any other
mechanism can be required that would impact performance.
This works be ensuring that a regular mount transitions to an idmapped
mount once going from a static nop_mnt_idmap mapping to a non-static
idmapping.
- The idmapping of a mount change anymore for the lifetime of the mount
afterwards. This not just avoids UAF issues it also avoids pitfalls
such as generating non-matching uid/gid values.
Changing idmappings could be solved by:
- Idmappings could simply be reference counted (above the simple
reference count when sharing them across multiple mounts).
This would require pairing mnt_idmap_get() with mnt_idmap_put() which
would end up being sprinkled everywhere into the VFS and some
filesystems that access idmappings directly.
It wouldn't just be quite ugly and introduce new complexity it would
have a noticeable performance impact.
- Idmappings could gain RCU protection. This would help the LOOKUP_RCU
case and avoids taking reference counts under RCU.
When not under LOOKUP_RCU reference counts need to be acquired on each
idmapping. This would require pairing mnt_idmap_get() with
mnt_idmap_put() which would end up being sprinkled everywhere into the
VFS and some filesystems that access idmappings directly.
This would have the same downsides as mentioned earlier.
- The earlier solutions work by updating the mnt->mnt_idmap pointer with
the new idmapping. Instead of this it would be possible to change the
idmapping itself to avoid UAF issues.
To do this a sequence counter would have to be added to struct mount.
When retrieving the idmapping to generate uid/gid values the sequence
counter would need to be sampled and the generation of the uid/gid
would spin until the update of the idmap is finished.
This has problems as well but the biggest issue will be that this can
lead to inconsistent permission checking and inconsistent uid/gid
pairs even more than this is already possible today. Specifically,
during creation it could happen that:
idmap = mnt_idmap(mnt);
inode_permission(idmap, ...);
may_create(idmap);
// create file with uid/gid based on @idmap
in between the permission checking and the generation of the uid/gid
value the idmapping could change leading to the permission checking
and uid/gid value that is actually used to create a file on disk being
out of sync.
Similarly if two values are generated like:
idmap = mnt_idmap(mnt)
vfsgid = make_vfsgid(idmap);
// idmapping gets update concurrently
vfsuid = make_vfsuid(idmap);
@vfsgid and @vfsuid could be out of sync if the idmapping was changed
in between. The generation of vfsgid/vfsuid could span a lot of
codelines so to guard against this a sequence count would have to be
passed around.
The performance impact of this solutio are less clear but very likely
not zero.
- Using SRCU similar to fanotify that can sleep. I find that not just
ugly but it would have memory consumption implications and is overall
pretty ugly.
/* solution */
So, to avoid all of these pitfalls creating an idmapped mount from an
already idmapped mount will be done atomically, i.e., a new detached
mount is created and a new set of mount properties applied to it without
it ever having been exposed to userspace at all.
This can be done in two ways. A new flag to open_tree() is added
OPEN_TREE_CLEAR_IDMAP that clears the old idmapping and returns a mount
that isn't idmapped. And then it is possible to set mount attributes on
it again including creation of an idmapped mount.
This has the consequence that a file descriptor must exist in userspace
that doesn't have any idmapping applied and it will thus never work in
unpriviledged scenarios. As a container would be able to remove the
idmapping of the mount it has been given. That should be avoided.
Instead, we add open_tree_attr() which works just like open_tree() but
takes an optional struct mount_attr parameter. This is useful beyond
idmappings as it fills a gap where a mount never exists in userspace
without the necessary mount properties applied.
This is particularly useful for mount options such as
MOUNT_ATTR_{RDONLY,NOSUID,NODEV,NOEXEC}.
To create a new idmapped mount the following works:
// Create a first idmapped mount
struct mount_attr attr = {
.attr_set = MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP
.userns_fd = fd_userns
};
fd_tree = open_tree(-EBADF, "/", OPEN_TREE_CLONE, &attr, sizeof(attr));
move_mount(fd_tree, "", -EBADF, "/mnt", MOVE_MOUNT_F_EMPTY_PATH);
// Create a second idmapped mount from the first idmapped mount
attr.attr_set = MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP;
attr.userns_fd = fd_userns2;
fd_tree2 = open_tree(-EBADF, "/mnt", OPEN_TREE_CLONE, &attr, sizeof(attr));
// Create a second non-idmapped mount from the first idmapped mount:
memset(&attr, 0, sizeof(attr));
attr.attr_clr = MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP;
fd_tree2 = open_tree(-EBADF, "/mnt", OPEN_TREE_CLONE, &attr, sizeof(attr));

This patchset makes it possible to create a new idmapped mount from an
already idmapped mount and to clear idmappings.
// Create a first idmapped mount
struct mount_attr attr = {
.attr_set = MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP
.userns_fd = fd_userns
};
fd_tree = open_tree(-EBADF, "/", OPEN_TREE_CLONE, &attr, sizeof(attr));
move_mount(fd_tree, "", -EBADF, "/mnt", MOVE_MOUNT_F_EMPTY_PATH);
// Create a second idmapped mount from the first idmapped mount
attr.attr_set = MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP;
attr.userns_fd = fd_userns2;
fd_tree2 = open_tree(-EBADF, "/mnt", OPEN_TREE_CLONE, &attr, sizeof(attr));
// Create a second non-idmapped mount from the first idmapped mount:
memset(&attr, 0, sizeof(attr));
attr.attr_clr = MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP;
fd_tree2 = open_tree(-EBADF, "/mnt", OPEN_TREE_CLONE, &attr, sizeof(attr));

Instead of using a boolean use a flag so we can add new flags in
following patches.

Add open_tree_attr() which allow to atomically create a detached mount
tree and set mount options on it. If OPEN_TREE_CLONE is used this will
allow the creation of a detached mount with a new set of mount options
without it ever being exposed to userspace without that set of mount
options applied.

Some of the fields in the statmount() reply can be optional. If the
kernel has nothing to emit in that field, then it doesn't set the flag
in the reply. This presents a problem: There is currently no way to
know what mask flags the kernel supports since you can't always count on
them being in the reply.
Add a new STATMOUNT_SUPPORTED_MASK flag and field that the kernel can
set in the reply. Userland can use this to determine if the fields it
requires from the kernel are supported. This also gives us a way to
deprecate fields in the future, if that should become necessary.
