2018-08-10fix __legitimize_mnt()/mntput() raceAl Viro1-0/+14
__legitimize_mnt() has two problems - one is that in case of success the check of mount_lock is not ordered wrt preceding increment of refcount, making it possible to have successful __legitimize_mnt() on one CPU just before the otherwise final mntpu() on another, with __legitimize_mnt() not seeing mntput() taking the lock and mntput() not seeing the increment done by __legitimize_mnt(). Solved by a pair of barriers. Another is that failure of __legitimize_mnt() on the second read_seqretry() leaves us with reference that'll need to be dropped by caller; however, if that races with final mntput() we can end up with caller dropping rcu_read_lock() and doing mntput() to release that reference - with the first mntput() having freed the damn thing just as rcu_read_lock() had been dropped. Solution: in "do mntput() yourself" failure case grab mount_lock, check if MNT_DOOMED has been set by racing final mntput() that has missed our increment and if it has - undo the increment and treat that as "failure, caller doesn't need to drop anything" case. It's not easy to hit - the final mntput() has to come right after the first read_seqretry() in __legitimize_mnt() *and* manage to miss the increment done by __legitimize_mnt() before the second read_seqretry() in there. The things that are almost impossible to hit on bare hardware are not impossible on SMP KVM, though...

2018-08-10fix mntput/mntput raceAl Viro1-2/+12
mntput_no_expire() does the calculation of total refcount under mount_lock; unfortunately, the decrement (as well as all increments) are done outside of it, leading to false positives in the "are we dropping the last reference" test. Consider the following situation: * mnt is a lazy-umounted mount, kept alive by two opened files. One of those files gets closed. Total refcount of mnt is 2. On CPU 42 mntput(mnt) (called from __fput()) drops one reference, decrementing component * After it has looked at component #0, the process on CPU 0 does mntget(), incrementing component #0, gets preempted and gets to run again - on CPU 69. There it does mntput(), which drops the reference (component #69) and proceeds to spin on mount_lock. * On CPU 42 our first mntput() finishes counting. It observes the decrement of component #69, but not the increment of component #0. As the result, the total it gets is not 1 as it should've been - it's 0. At which point we decide that vfsmount needs to be killed and proceed to free it and shut the filesystem down. However, there's still another opened file on that filesystem, with reference to (now freed) vfsmount, etc. and we are screwed. It's not a wide race, but it can be reproduced with artificial slowdown of the mnt_get_count() loop, and it should be easier to hit on SMP KVM setups. Fix consists of moving the refcount decrement under mount_lock; the tricky part is that we want (and can) keep the fast case (i.e. mount that still has non-NULL ->mnt_ns) entirely out of mount_lock. All places that zero mnt->mnt_ns are dropping some reference to mnt and they call synchronize_rcu() before that mntput(). IOW, if mntput() observes (under rcu_read_lock()) a non-NULL ->mnt_ns, it is guaranteed that there is another reference yet to be dropped.

2018-04-02fs: add ksys_umount() helper; remove in-kernel call to sys_umount()Dominik Brodowski1-2/+7
Using this helper allows us to avoid the in-kernel call to the sys_umount() syscall. The ksys_ prefix denotes that this function is meant as a drop-in replacement for the syscall. In particular, it uses the same calling convention as ksys_umount(). In the near future, the only fs-external caller of ksys_umount() should be converted to call do_umount() directly. Then, ksys_umount() can be moved within sys_umount() again. This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls. On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined.

2017-10-25locking/atomics: COCCINELLE/treewide: Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() patterns ↵Mark Rutland1-1/+1
to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() 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: ---- // Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() uses to equivalent READ_ONCE() and // WRITE_ONCE() // $ make coccicheck COCCI=/home/mark/once.cocci SPFLAGS="--include-headers" MODE=patch virtual patch @ depends on patch @ expression E1, E2; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E1) = E2 + WRITE_ONCE(E1, E2) @ depends on patch @ expression E; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E) + READ_ONCE(E) ---- Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2017-09-05ovl: don't allow writing ioctl on lower layerMiklos Szeredi1-3/+61
Problem with ioctl() is that it's a file operation, yet often used as an inode operation (i.e. modify the inode despite the file being opened for read-only). mnt_want_write_file() is used by filesystems in such cases to get write access on an arbitrary open file. Since overlayfs lets filesystems do all file operations, including ioctl, this can lead to mnt_want_write_file() returning OK for a lower file and modification of that lower file. This patch prevents modification by checking if the file is from an overlayfs lower layer and returning EPERM in that case. Need to introduce a mnt_want_write_file_path() variant that still does the old thing for inode operations that can do the copy up + modification correctly in such cases (fchown, fsetxattr, fremovexattr). This does not address the correctness of such ioctls on overlayfs (the correct way would be to copy up and attempt to perform ioctl on upper file). In theory this could be a regression. We very much hope that nobody is relying on such a hack in any sane setup. While this patch meddles in VFS code, it has no effect on non-overlayfs filesystems.

2017-07-17VFS: Differentiate mount flags (MS_*) from internal superblock flagsDavid Howells1-25/+31
Differentiate the MS_* flags passed to mount(2) from the internal flags set in the super_block's s_flags. s_flags are now called SB_*, with the names and the values for the moment mirroring the MS_* flags that they're equivalent to. In this patch, just the headers are altered and some kernel code where blind automated conversion isn't necessarily correct. Note that this shows up some interesting issues: (1) Some MS_* flags get translated to MNT_* flags (such as MS_NODEV -> MNT_NODEV) without passing this on to the filesystem, but some filesystems set such flags anyway. (2) The ->remount_fs() methods of some filesystems adjust the *flags argument by setting MS_* flags in it, such as MS_NOATIME - but these flags are then scrubbed by do_remount_sb() (only the occupants of MS_RMT_MASK are permitted: MS_RDONLY, MS_SYNCHRONOUS, MS_MANDLOCK, MS_I_VERSION and MS_LAZYTIME) I'm not sure what's the best way to solve all these cases.

What allowed this was not changing where umounts propagate to while propgating umounts. The next change fixes the case where the order of the mount whose umount are being progated visits a tree where the mounts are stacked upon each other in another order. This is weird but not hard to implement. The final change takes advantage of the unchanging mount propgation tree to skip parts of the mount propgation tree that have already been visited. Yielding a very nice speed up in the worst case. There remains one outstanding question about the semantics of umount -l that I am still discussiong with Ram Pai.

2017-05-23mnt: In propgate_umount handle visiting mounts in any orderEric W. Biederman1-1/+1
While investigating some poor umount performance I realized that in the case of overlapping mount trees where some of the mounts are locked the code has been failing to unmount all of the mounts it should have been unmounting. This failure to unmount all of the necessary mounts can be reproduced with: $ cat locked_mounts_test.sh mount -t tmpfs test-base /mnt mount --make-shared /mnt mkdir -p /mnt/b mount -t tmpfs test1 /mnt/b mount --make-shared /mnt/b mkdir -p /mnt/b/10 mount -t tmpfs test2 /mnt/b/10 mount --make-shared /mnt/b/10 mkdir -p /mnt/b/10/20 mount --rbind /mnt/b /mnt/b/10/20 unshare -Urm --propagation unchaged /bin/sh -c 'sleep 5; if [ $(grep test /proc/self/mountinfo | wc -l) -eq 1 ] ; then echo SUCCESS ; else echo FAILURE ; fi' sleep 1 umount -l /mnt/b wait %% $ unshare -Urm ./locked_mounts_test.sh This failure is corrected by removing the prepass that marks mounts that may be umounted. A first pass is added that umounts mounts if possible and if not sets mount mark if they could be unmounted if they weren't locked and adds them to a list to umount possibilities. This first pass reconsiders the mounts parent if it is on the list of umount possibilities, ensuring that information of umoutability will pass from child to mount parent. A second pass then walks through all mounts that are umounted and processes their children unmounting them or marking them for reparenting. A last pass cleans up the state on the mounts that could not be umounted and if applicable reparents them to their first parent that remained mounted. While a bit longer than the old code this code is much more robust as it allows information to flow up from the leaves and down from the trunk making the order in which mounts are encountered in the umount propgation tree irrelevant.

Currently we free fsnotify_mark_connector structure only when inode / vfsmount is getting freed. This can however impose noticeable memory overhead when marks get attached to inodes only temporarily. So free the connector structure once the last mark is detached from the object.

2017-04-10fsnotify: Move mark list head from object into dedicated structureJan Kara1-3/+3
Currently notification marks are attached to object (inode or vfsmnt) by a hlist_head in the object. The list is also protected by a spinlock in the object. So while there is any mark attached to the list of marks, the object must be pinned in memory (and thus e.g. last iput() deleting inode cannot happen). Also for list iteration in fsnotify() to work, we must hold fsnotify_mark_srcu lock so that mark itself and mark->obj_list.next cannot get freed. Thus we are required to wait for response to fanotify events from userspace process with fsnotify_mark_srcu lock held. That causes issues when userspace process is buggy and does not reply to some event - basically the whole notification subsystem gets eventually stuck. So to be able to drop fsnotify_mark_srcu lock while waiting for response, we have to pin the mark in memory and make sure it stays in the object list (as removing the mark waiting for response could lead to lost notification events for groups later in the list). However we don't want inode reclaim to block on such mark as that would lead to system just locking up elsewhere. This commit is the first in the series that paves way towards solving these conflicting lifetime needs. Instead of anchoring the list of marks directly in the object, we anchor it in a dedicated structure (fsnotify_mark_connector) and just point to that structure from the object. The following commits will also add spinlock protecting the list and object pointer to the structure.

2017-02-03mnt: Tuck mounts under others instead of creating shadow/side mounts.Eric W. Biederman1-50/+60
Ever since mount propagation was introduced in cases where a mount in propagated to parent mount mountpoint pair that is already in use the code has placed the new mount behind the old mount in the mount hash table. This implementation detail is problematic as it allows creating arbitrary length mount hash chains. Furthermore it invalidates the constraint maintained elsewhere in the mount code that a parent mount and a mountpoint pair will have exactly one mount upon them. Making it hard to deal with and to talk about this special case in the mount code. Modify mount propagation to notice when there is already a mount at the parent mount and mountpoint where a new mount is propagating to and place that preexisting mount on top of the new mount. Modify unmount propagation to notice when a mount that is being unmounted has another mount on top of it (and no other children), and to replace the unmounted mount with the mount on top of it. Move the MNT_UMUONT test from __lookup_mnt_last into __propagate_umount as that is the only call of __lookup_mnt_last where MNT_UMOUNT may be set on any mount visible in the mount hash table. These modifications allow: - __lookup_mnt_last to be removed. - attach_shadows to be renamed __attach_mnt and its shadow handling to be removed. - commit_tree to be simplified - copy_tree to be simplified The result is an easier to understand tree of mounts that does not allow creation of arbitrary length hash chains in the mount hash table. The result is also a very slight userspace visible difference in semantics. The following two cases now behave identically, where before order mattered: case 1: (explicit user action) B is a slave of A mount something on A/a , it will propagate to B/a and than mount something on B/a case 2: (tucked mount) B is a slave of A mount something on B/a and than mount something on A/a Histroically umount A/a would fail in case 1 and succeed in case 2. Now umount A/a succeeds in both configurations. This very small change in semantics appears if anything to be a bug fix to me and my survey of userspace leads me to believe that no programs will notice or care of this subtle semantic change. v2: Updated to mnt_change_mountpoint to not call dput or mntput and instead to decrement the counts directly. It is guaranteed that there will be other references when mnt_change_mountpoint is called so this is safe. v3: Moved put_mountpoint under mount_lock in attach_recursive_mnt As the locking in fs/namespace.c changed between v2 and v3. v4: Reworked the logic in propagate_mount_busy and __propagate_umount that detects when a mount completely covers another mount. v5: Removed unnecessary tests whose result is alwasy true in find_topper and attach_recursive_mnt. v6: Document the user space visible semantic difference.

2017-02-01fs: Better permission checking for submountsEric W. Biederman1-1/+16
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.

2017-01-10mnt: Protect the mountpoint hashtable with mount_lockEric W. Biederman1-19/+45
Protecting the mountpoint hashtable with namespace_sem was sufficient until a call to umount_mnt was added to mntput_no_expire. At which point it became possible for multiple calls of put_mountpoint on the same hash chain to happen on the same time. Kristen Johansen <kjlx@templeofstupid.com> reported: > This can cause a panic when simultaneous callers of put_mountpoint > attempt to free the same mountpoint. This occurs because some callers > hold the mount_hash_lock, while others hold the namespace lock. Some > even hold both. > > In this submitter's case, the panic manifested itself as a GP fault in > put_mountpoint() when it called hlist_del() and attempted to dereference > a m_hash.pprev that had been poisioned by another thread. Al Viro observed that the simple fix is to switch from using the namespace_sem to the mount_lock to protect the mountpoint hash table. I have taken Al's suggested patch moved put_mountpoint in pivot_root (instead of taking mount_lock an additional time), and have replaced new_mountpoint with get_mountpoint a function that does the hash table lookup and addition under the mount_lock. The introduction of get_mounptoint ensures that only the mount_lock is needed to manipulate the mountpoint hashtable. d_set_mounted is modified to only set DCACHE_MOUNTED if it is not already set. This allows get_mountpoint to use the setting of DCACHE_MOUNTED to ensure adding a struct mountpoint for a dentry happens exactly once.

2016-09-30mnt: Add a per mount namespace limit on the number of mountsEric W. Biederman1-1/+48
CAI Qian <caiqian@redhat.com> pointed out that the semantics of shared subtrees make it possible to create an exponentially increasing number of mounts in a mount namespace. mkdir /tmp/1 /tmp/2 mount --make-rshared / for i in $(seq 1 20) ; do mount --bind /tmp/1 /tmp/2 ; done Will create create 2^20 or 1048576 mounts, which is a practical problem as some people have managed to hit this by accident. As such CVE-2016-6213 was assigned. Ian Kent <raven@themaw.net> described the situation for autofs users as follows: > The number of mounts for direct mount maps is usually not very large because of > the way they are implemented, large direct mount maps can have performance > problems. There can be anywhere from a few (likely case a few hundred) to less > than 10000, plus mounts that have been triggered and not yet expired. > > Indirect mounts have one autofs mount at the root plus the number of mounts that > have been triggered and not yet expired. > > The number of autofs indirect map entries can range from a few to the common > case of several thousand and in rare cases up to between 30000 and 50000. I've > not heard of people with maps larger than 50000 entries. > > The larger the number of map entries the greater the possibility for a large > number of active mounts so it's not hard to expect cases of a 1000 or somewhat > more active mounts. So I am setting the default number of mounts allowed per mount namespace at 100,000. This is more than enough for any use case I know of, but small enough to quickly stop an exponential increase in mounts. Which should be perfect to catch misconfigurations and malfunctioning programs. For anyone who needs a higher limit this can be changed by writing to the new /proc/sys/fs/mount-max sysctl.

From: Andrey Vagin <avagin@openvz.org> Each namespace has an owning user namespace and now there is not way to discover these relationships. Pid and user namepaces are hierarchical. There is no way to discover parent-child relationships too. Why we may want to know relationships between namespaces? One use would be visualization, in order to understand the running system. Another would be to answer the question: what capability does process X have to perform operations on a resource governed by namespace Y? One more use-case (which usually called abnormal) is checkpoint/restart. In CRIU we are going to dump and restore nested namespaces. There [1] was a discussion about which interface to choose to determing relationships between namespaces. Eric suggested to add two ioctl-s [2]: > Grumble, Grumble. I think this may actually a case for creating ioctls > for these two cases. Now that random nsfs file descriptors are bind > mountable the original reason for using proc files is not as pressing. > > One ioctl for the user namespace that owns a file descriptor. > One ioctl for the parent namespace of a namespace file descriptor. Here is an implementaions of these ioctl-s. $ man man7/namespaces.7 ... Since Linux 4.X, the following ioctl(2) calls are supported for namespace file descriptors.

NS_GET_PARENT Returns a file descriptor that refers to a parent namespace. This ioctl(2) can be used for pid and user namespaces. For user namespaces, NS_GET_PARENT and NS_GET_USERNS have the same meaning. In addition to generic ioctl(2) errors, the following specific ones can occur: EINVAL NS_GET_PARENT was called for a nonhierarchical namespace.

2016-09-16locks: fix file locking on overlayfsMiklos Szeredi1-1/+1
This patch allows flock, posix locks, ofd locks and leases to work correctly on overlayfs. Instead of using the underlying inode for storing lock context use the overlay inode. This allows locks to be persistent across copy-up. This is done by introducing locks_inode() helper and using it instead of file_inode() to get the inode in locking code. For non-overlayfs the two are equivalent, except for an extra pointer dereference in locks_inode(). Since lock operations are in "struct file_operations" we must also make sure not to call underlying filesystem's lock operations. Introcude a super block flag MS_NOREMOTELOCK to this effect.
