2012-11-20proc: Fix the namespace inode permission checks.Eric W. Biederman2-23/+152
Change the proc namespace files into symlinks so that we won't cache the dentries for the namespace files which can bypass the ptrace_may_access checks. To support the symlinks create an additional namespace inode with it's own set of operations distinct from the proc pid inode and dentry methods as those no longer make sense. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>
2012-11-20proc: Generalize proc inode allocationEric W. Biederman2-13/+23
Generalize the proc inode allocation so that it can be used without having to having to create a proc_dir_entry. This will allow namespace file descriptors to remain light weight entitities but still have the same inode number when the backing namespace is the same. Acked-by: Serge E.

file To keep things sane in the context of file descriptor passing derive the user namespace that uids are mapped into from the opener of the file instead of from current.

2012-11-20userns: Kill task_user_nsEric W. Biederman4-9/+25
The task_user_ns function hides the fact that it is getting the user namespace from struct cred on the task. struct cred may go away as soon as the rcu lock is released. This leads to a race where we can dereference a stale user namespace pointer. To make it obvious a struct cred is involved kill task_user_ns. To kill the race modify the users of task_user_ns to only reference the user namespace while the rcu lock is held.

2012-11-19userns: Allow unprivileged users to create user namespaces.Eric W. Biederman1-8/+0
Now that we have been through every permission check in the kernel having uid == 0 and gid == 0 in your local user namespace no longer adds any special privileges. Even having a full set of caps in your local user namespace is safe because capabilies are relative to your local user namespace, and do not confer unexpected privileges. Over the long term this should allow much more of the kernels functionality to be safely used by non-root users. Functionality like unsharing the mount namespace that is only unsafe because it can fool applications whose privileges are raised when they are executed. Since those applications have no privileges in a user namespaces it becomes safe to spoof and confuse those applications all you want. Those capabilities will still need to be enabled carefully because we may still need things like rlimits on the number of unprivileged mounts but that is to avoid DOS attacks not to avoid fooling root owned processes.

2012-11-19userns: Ignore suid and sgid on binaries if the uid or gid can not be mappedEric W. Biederman1-6/+3
When performing an exec where the binary lives in one user namespace and the execing process lives in another usre namespace there is the possibility that the target uids can not be represented. Instead of failing the exec simply ignore the suid/sgid bits and run the binary with lower privileges. We already do this in the case of MNT_NOSUID so this should be a well tested code path. As the user and group are not changed this should not introduce any security issues. Acked-by: Serge Hallyn <serge.hallyn@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>

2012-11-19vfs: Only support slave subtrees across different user namespacesEric W. Biederman2-3/+9

2012-11-19vfs: Add setns support for the mount namespaceEric W. Biederman4-0/+108
setns support for the mount namespace is a little tricky as an arbitrary decision must be made about what to set fs->root and fs->pwd to, as there is no expectation of a relationship between the two mount namespaces. Therefore I arbitrarily find the root mount point, and follow every mount on top of it to find the top of the mount stack. Then I set fs->root and fs->pwd to that location. The topmost root of the mount stack seems like a reasonable place to be. Bind mount support for the mount namespace inodes has the possibility of creating circular dependencies between mount namespaces. Circular dependencies can result in loops that prevent mount namespaces from every being freed. I avoid creating those circular dependencies by adding a sequence number to the mount namespace and require all bind mounts be of a younger mount namespace into an older mount namespace. Add a helper function proc_ns_inode so it is possible to detect when we are attempting to bind mound a namespace inode. Acked-by: Serge Hallyn <serge.hallyn@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2012-11-19pidns: Support unsharing the pid namespace.Eric W. Biederman3-10/+26
Unsharing of the pid namespace unlike unsharing of other namespaces does not take affect immediately. Instead it affects the children created with fork and clone. The first of these children becomes the init process of the new pid namespace, the rest become oddball children of pid 0. From the point of view of the new pid namespace the process that created it is pid 0, as it's pid does not map. A couple of different semantics were considered but this one was settled on because it is easy to implement and it is usable from pam modules. The core reasons for the existence of unshare. I took a survey of the callers of pam modules and the following appears to be a representative sample of their logic. { setup stuff include pam child = fork(); if (!child) { setuid() exec /bin/bash } waitpid(child); pam and other cleanup } As you can see there is a fork to create the unprivileged user space process. Which means that the unprivileged user space process will appear as pid 1 in the new pid namespace. Further most login processes do not cope with extraneous children which means shifting the duty of reaping extraneous child process to the creator of those extraneous children makes the system more comprehensible. The practical reason for this set of pid namespace semantics is that it is simple to implement and verify they work correctly. Whereas an implementation that requres changing the struct pid on a process comes with a lot more races and pain. Not the least of which is that glibc caches getpid(). These semantics are implemented by having two notions of the pid namespace of a proces. There is task_active_pid_ns which is the pid namspace the process was created with and the pid namespace that all pids are presented to that process in. The task_active_pid_ns is stored in the struct pid of the task. Then there is the pid namespace that will be used for children that pid namespace is stored in task->nsproxy->pid_ns.

2012-11-19pidns: Consolidate initialzation of special init task stateEric W. Biederman2-4/+3
Instead of setting child_reaper and SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE one way for the system init process, and another way for pid namespace init processes test pid->nr == 1 and use the same code for both. For the global init this results in SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE being set much earlier in the initialization process. This is a small cleanup and it paves the way for allowing unshare and enter of the pid namespace as that path like our global init also will not set CLONE_NEWPID. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2012-11-19pidns: Add setns supportEric W. Biederman3-0/+58
- Pid namespaces are designed to be inescapable so verify that the passed in pid namespace is a child of the currently active pid namespace or the currently active pid namespace itself.

2012-11-19pidns: Deny strange cases when creating pid namespaces.Eric W. Biederman1-0/+2
task_active_pid_ns(current) != current->ns_proxy->pid_ns will soon be allowed to support unshare and setns. The definition of creating a child pid namespace when task_active_pid_ns(current) != current->ns_proxy->pid_ns could be that we create a child pid namespace of current->ns_proxy->pid_ns. However that leads to strange cases like trying to have a single process be init in multiple pid namespaces, which is racy and hard to think about. The definition of creating a child pid namespace when task_active_pid_ns(current) != current->ns_proxy->pid_ns could be that we create a child pid namespace of task_active_pid_ns(current). While that seems less racy it does not provide any utility. Therefore define the semantics of creating a child pid namespace when task_active_pid_ns(current) != current->ns_proxy->pid_ns to be that the pid namespace creation fails. That is easy to implement and easy to think about. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>

2012-11-19pidns: Don't allow new processes in a dead pid namespace.Eric W. Biederman1-1/+7
Set nr_hashed to -1 just before we schedule the work to cleanup proc. Test nr_hashed just before we hash a new pid and if nr_hashed is < 0 fail. This guaranteees that processes never enter a pid namespaces after we have cleaned up the state to support processes in a pid namespace. Currently sending SIGKILL to all of the process in a pid namespace as init exists gives us this guarantee but we need something a little stronger to support unsharing and joining a pid namespace.

2012-11-19pidns: Make the pidns proc mount/umount logic obvious.Eric W. Biederman6-22/+26
Track the number of pids in the proc hash table. When the number of pids goes to 0 schedule work to unmount the kernel mount of proc. Move the mount of proc into alloc_pid when we allocate the pid for init. Remove the surprising calls of pid_ns_release proc in fork and proc_flush_task. Those code paths really shouldn't know about proc namespace implementation details and people have demonstrated several times that finding and understanding those code paths is difficult and non-obvious. Because of the call path detach pid is alwasy called with the rtnl_lock held free_pid is not allowed to sleep, so the work to unmounting proc is moved to a work queue. This has the side benefit of not blocking the entire world waiting for the unnecessary rcu_barrier in deactivate_locked_super. In the process of making the code clear and obvious this fixes a bug reported by Gao feng <gaofeng@cn.fujitsu.com> where we would leak a mount of proc during clone(CLONE_NEWPID|CLONE_NEWNET) if copy_pid_ns succeeded and copy_net_ns failed.

2012-11-19pidns: Use task_active_pid_ns where appropriateEric W. Biederman12-15/+16
The expressions tsk->nsproxy->pid_ns and task_active_pid_ns aka ns_of_pid(task_pid(tsk)) should have the same number of cache line misses with the practical difference that ns_of_pid(task_pid(tsk)) is released later in a processes life. Furthermore by using task_active_pid_ns it becomes trivial to write an unshare implementation for the the pid namespace. So I have used task_active_pid_ns everywhere I can. In fork since the pid has not yet been attached to the process I use ns_of_pid, to achieve the same effect. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>

I had visions at one point of splitting proc into two filesystems. If that had happened proc/self being the the part of proc that actually deals with pids would have been a nice cleanup. As it is proc/self requires a lot of unnecessary infrastructure for a single file.

2012-11-15userns: Support fuse interacting with multiple user namespacesEric W. Biederman5-24/+28
Use kuid_t and kgid_t in struct fuse_conn and struct fuse_mount_data. The connection between between a fuse filesystem and a fuse daemon is established when a fuse filesystem is mounted and provided with a file descriptor the fuse daemon created by opening /dev/fuse. For now restrict the communication of uids and gids between the fuse filesystem and the fuse daemon to the initial user namespace. Enforce this by verifying the file descriptor passed to the mount of fuse was opened in the initial user namespace. Ensuring the mount happens in the initial user namespace is not necessary as mounts from non-initial user namespaces are not yet allowed. In fuse_req_init_context convert the currrent fsuid and fsgid into the initial user namespace for the request that will be sent to the fuse daemon. In fuse_fill_attr convert the uid and gid passed from the fuse daemon from the initial user namespace into kuids and kgids. In iattr_to_fattr called from fuse_setattr convert kuids and kgids into the uids and gids in the initial user namespace before passing them to the fuse filesystem. In fuse_change_attributes_common called from fuse_dentry_revalidate, fuse_permission, fuse_geattr, and fuse_setattr, and fuse_iget convert the uid and gid from the fuse daemon into a kuid and a kgid to store on the fuse inode. By default fuse mounts are restricted to task whose uid, suid, and euid matches the fuse user_id and whose gid, sgid, and egid matches the fuse group id. Convert the user_id and group_id mount options into kuids and kgids at mount time, and use uid_eq and gid_eq to compare the in fuse_allow_task.

2012-11-15userns: Support autofs4 interacing with multiple user namespacesEric W. Biederman5-18/+24
Use kuid_t and kgid_t in struct autofs_info and struct autofs_wait_queue. When creating directories and symlinks default the uid and gid of the mount requester to the global root uid and gid. autofs4_wait will update these fields when a mount is requested. When generating autofsv5 packets report the uid and gid of the mount requestor in user namespace of the process that opened the pipe, reporting unmapped uids and gids as overflowuid and overflowgid. In autofs_dev_ioctl_requester return the uid and gid of the last mount requester converted into the calling processes user namespace. When the uid or gid don't map return overflowuid and overflowgid as appropriate, allowing failure to find a mount requester to be distinguished from failure to map a mount requester. The uid and gid mount options specifying the user and group of the root autofs inode are converted into kuid and kgid as they are parsed defaulting to the current uid and current gid of the process that mounts autofs. Mounting of autofs for the present remains confined to processes in the initial user namespace.

Functions generic_file_splice_read and generic_file_splice_write access the pagecache directly. For block devices these functions must be locked so that block size is not changed while they are in progress. This patch is an additional fix for commit b87570f5d349 ("Fix a crash when block device is read and block size is changed at the same time") that locked aio_read, aio_write and mmap against block size change.

2012-10-28percpu-rw-semaphores: use rcu_read_lock_schedMikulas Patocka1-4/+4
Use rcu_read_lock_sched / rcu_read_unlock_sched / synchronize_sched instead of rcu_read_lock / rcu_read_unlock / synchronize_rcu. This is an optimization. The RCU-protected region is very small, so there will be no latency problems if we disable preempt in this region. So we use rcu_read_lock_sched / rcu_read_unlock_sched that translates to preempt_disable / preempt_disable. It is smaller (and supposedly faster) than preemptible rcu_read_lock / rcu_read_unlock.

2012-10-28percpu-rw-semaphores: use light/heavy barriersMikulas Patocka1-13/+7
This patch introduces new barrier pair light_mb() and heavy_mb() for percpu rw semaphores. This patch fixes a bug in percpu-rw-semaphores where a barrier was missing in percpu_up_write. This patch improves performance on the read path of percpu-rw-semaphores: on non-x86 cpus, there was a smp_mb() in percpu_up_read. This patch changes it to a compiler barrier and removes the "#if defined(X86) ..." condition.

2012-10-27ARM: versatile: fix versatile_defconfigArnd Bergmann1-0/+1
With the introduction of CONFIG_ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM, versatile is no longer the default platform, so we need to enable CONFIG_ARCH_VERSATILE explicitly in order for that to be selected rather than the multiplatform configuration. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

patch 738a0fd7 "ARM: at91: fix external interrupts in non-DT case" fixed a run-time error on some at91 platforms but did not apply the same change to at91x40, which now doesn't build. This changes at91x40 in the same way that the other platforms were changed. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Acked-by: Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD <plagnioj@jcrosoft.com>
