2020-11-10vfs: remove lockdep bogosity in __sb_start_writeDarrick J. Wong
__sb_start_write has some weird looking lockdep code that claims to exist to handle nested freeze locking requests from xfs. The code as written seems broken -- if we think we hold a read lock on any of the higher freeze levels (e.g. we hold SB_FREEZE_WRITE and are trying to lock SB_FREEZE_PAGEFAULT), it converts a blocking lock attempt into a trylock. However, it's not correct to downgrade a blocking lock attempt to a trylock unless the downgrading code or the callers are prepared to deal with that situation. Neither __sb_start_write nor its callers handle this at all. For example: sb_start_pagefault ignores the return value completely, with the result that if xfs_filemap_fault loses a race with a different thread trying to fsfreeze, it will proceed without pagefault freeze protection (thereby breaking locking rules) and then unlocks the pagefault freeze lock that it doesn't own on its way out (thereby corrupting the lock state), which leads to a system hang shortly afterwards. Normally, this won't happen because our ownership of a read lock on a higher freeze protection level blocks fsfreeze from grabbing a write lock on that higher level. *However*, if lockdep is offline, lock_is_held_type unconditionally returns 1, which means that percpu_rwsem_is_held returns 1, which means that __sb_start_write unconditionally converts blocking freeze lock attempts into trylocks, even when we *don't* hold anything that would block a fsfreeze. Apparently this all held together until 5.10-rc1, when bugs in lockdep caused lockdep to shut itself off early in an fstests run, and once fstests gets to the "race writes with freezer" tests, kaboom. This might explain the long trail of vanishingly infrequent livelocks in fstests after lockdep goes offline that I've never been able to diagnose. We could fix it by spinning on the trylock if wait==true, but AFAICT the locking works fine if lockdep is not built at all (and I didn't see any complaints running fstests overnight), so remove this snippet entirely. NOTE: Commit f4b554af9931 in 2015 created the current weird logic (which used to exist in a different form in commit 5accdf82ba25c from 2012) in __sb_start_write. XFS solved this whole problem in the late 2.6 era by creating a variant of transactions (XFS_TRANS_NO_WRITECOUNT) that don't grab intwrite freeze protection, thus making lockdep's solution unnecessary. The commit claims that Dave Chinner explained that the trylock hack + comment could be removed, but nobody ever did. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

2020-09-24bdi: replace BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES with a queue and a sb flagChristoph Hellwig
The BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES is one of the few bits of information in the backing_dev_info shared between the block drivers and the writeback code. To help untangling the dependency replace it with a queue flag and a superblock flag derived from it. This also helps with the case of e.g. a file system requiring stable writes due to its own checksumming, but not forcing it on other users of the block device like the swap code. One downside is that we an't support the stable_pages_required bdi attribute in sysfs anymore. It is replaced with a queue attribute which also is writable for easier testing.

Commit 6fcf0c72e4b9, a fix to get_tree_bdev() put a missing blkdev_put() in the wrong place, before a warnf() that displays the bdev under consideration rather after it. This results in a silent lockup in printk("%pg") called via warnf() from get_tree_bdev() under some circumstances when there's a race with the blockdev being frozen. This can be caused by xfstests/tests/generic/085 in combination with Lukas Czerner's ext4 mount API conversion patchset. It looks like it ought to occur with other users of get_tree_bdev() such as XFS, but apparently doesn't. Fix this by switching the order of the lines.

2019-12-18fs: call fsnotify_sb_delete after evict_inodesEric Sandeen
When a filesystem is unmounted, we currently call fsnotify_sb_delete() before evict_inodes(), which means that fsnotify_unmount_inodes() must iterate over all inodes on the superblock looking for any inodes with watches. This is inefficient and can lead to livelocks as it iterates over many unwatched inodes. At this point, SB_ACTIVE is gone and dropping refcount to zero kicks the inode out out immediately, so anything processed by fsnotify_sb_delete / fsnotify_unmount_inodes gets evicted in that loop. After that, the call to evict_inodes will evict everything else with a zero refcount. This should speed things up overall, and avoid livelocks in fsnotify_unmount_inodes().

2019-08-12fscrypt: add FS_IOC_ADD_ENCRYPTION_KEY ioctlEric Biggers
Add a new fscrypt ioctl, FS_IOC_ADD_ENCRYPTION_KEY. This ioctl adds an encryption key to the filesystem's fscrypt keyring ->s_master_keys, making any files encrypted with that key appear "unlocked". Why we need this ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The main problem is that the "locked/unlocked" (ciphertext/plaintext) status of encrypted files is global, but the fscrypt keys are not. fscrypt only looks for keys in the keyring(s) the process accessing the filesystem is subscribed to: the thread keyring, process keyring, and session keyring, where the session keyring may contain the user keyring. Therefore, userspace has to put fscrypt keys in the keyrings for individual users or sessions. But this means that when a process with a different keyring tries to access encrypted files, whether they appear "unlocked" or not is nondeterministic. This is because it depends on whether the files are currently present in the inode cache. Fixing this by consistently providing each process its own view of the filesystem depending on whether it has the key or not isn't feasible due to how the VFS caches work. Furthermore, while sometimes users expect this behavior, it is misguided for two reasons. First, it would be an OS-level access control mechanism largely redundant with existing access control mechanisms such as UNIX file permissions, ACLs, LSMs, etc. Encryption is actually for protecting the data at rest. Second, almost all users of fscrypt actually do need the keys to be global. The largest users of fscrypt, Android and Chromium OS, achieve this by having PID 1 create a "session keyring" that is inherited by every process. This works, but it isn't scalable because it prevents session keyrings from being used for any other purpose. On general-purpose Linux distros, the 'fscrypt' userspace tool [1] can't similarly abuse the session keyring, so to make 'sudo' work on all systems it has to link all the user keyrings into root's user keyring [2]. This is ugly and raises security concerns. Moreover it can't make the keys available to system services, such as sshd trying to access the user's '~/.ssh' directory (see [3], [4]) or NetworkManager trying to read certificates from the user's home directory (see [5]); or to Docker containers (see [6], [7]). By having an API to add a key to the *filesystem* we'll be able to fix the above bugs, remove userspace workarounds, and clearly express the intended semantics: the locked/unlocked status of an encrypted directory is global, and encryption is orthogonal to OS-level access control. Why not use the add_key() syscall ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We use an ioctl for this API rather than the existing add_key() system call because the ioctl gives us the flexibility needed to implement fscrypt-specific semantics that will be introduced in later patches: - Supporting key removal with the semantics such that the secret is removed immediately and any unused inodes using the key are evicted; also, the eviction of any in-use inodes can be retried. - Calculating a key-dependent cryptographic identifier and returning it to userspace. - Allowing keys to be added and removed by non-root users, but only keys for v2 encryption policies; and to prevent denial-of-service attacks, users can only remove keys they themselves have added, and a key is only really removed after all users who added it have removed it. Trying to shoehorn these semantics into the keyrings syscalls would be very difficult, whereas the ioctls make things much easier. However, to reuse code the implementation still uses the keyrings service internally. Thus we get lockless RCU-mode key lookups without having to re-implement it, and the keys automatically show up in /proc/keys for debugging purposes.

And btrfs_mount()/ nfs_do_root_mount() have the checks already done in their callers. IOW, we can shift mount_capable() handling into the two callers - one in the normal case of mount(2), another - in fsconfig(2) handling of FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE.

2019-05-25move mount_capable() calls to vfs_get_tree()Al Viro
sget_fc() is called only from ->get_tree() instances and the only instance not calling it is legacy_get_tree(), which calls mount_capable() directly. In all sget_fc() callers the checks could be moved to the very beginning of ->get_tree() - ->user_ns is not changed in between. So lifting the checks to the only caller of ->get_tree() is OK.

2019-05-25switch mount_capable() to fs_contextAl Viro
now both callers of mount_capable() have access to fs_context; the only difference is that for sget_fc() we have the possibility of fc->global being true, while for legacy_get_tree() it's guaranteed to be impossible. Unify to more generic variant... Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2019-05-25move the capability checks from sget_userns() to legacy_get_tree()Al Viro
1) all call chains leading to sget_userns() pass through ->mount() instances. 2) none of ->mount() instances is ever called directly - the only call site is legacy_get_tree() 3) all remaining ->mount() instances end up calling sget_userns() IOW, we might as well do the capability checks just before calling ->mount(). As for the arguments passed to mount_capable(), in case of call chains to sget_userns() going through sget(), we either don't call mount_capable() at all, or pass current_user_ns() to it. The call chains going through mount_pseudo_xattr() don't call mount_capable() at all (SB_KERNMOUNT in flags on those). That could've been split into smaller steps (lifting the checks into sget(), then callers of sget(), then all the way to the entries of every ->mount() out there, then to the sole caller), but that would be too much churn for little benefit...

2019-05-25start massaging the checks in sget_...(): move to sget_userns()Al Viro
there are 3 remaining callers of sget_userns() - sget(), mount_ns() and mount_pseudo_xattr(). Extra check in sget() is conditional upon mount being neither KERNMOUNT nor SUBMOUNT, the identical one in mount_ns() - upon being not KERNMOUNT; mount_pseudo_xattr() has no such checks at all. However, mount_ns() is never used with SUBMOUNT and mount_pseudo_xattr() is used only for KERNMOUNT, so both would be fine with the same logics as currently done in sget(), allowing to consolidate the entire thing in sget_userns() itself. That's not where these checks will end up in the long run, though - the whole reason why they'd been done so deep in the bowels of mount(2) was that there had been no way for a filesystem to specify which userns to look at until it has entered ->mount(). Now there is a place where filesystem could override the defaults - ->init_fs_context(). Which allows to pull the checks out into the callers of vfs_get_tree(). That'll take quite a bit of massage, but that mess is possible to tease apart. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

the former is an analogue of mount_{single,nodev} for use in ->get_tree() instances, the latter - analogue of sget() for the same. These are fairly similar to the originals, but the callback signature for sget_fc() is different from sget() ones, so getting bits and pieces shared would be too convoluted; we might get around to that later, but for now let's just remember to keep them in sync. They do live next to each other, and changes in either won't be hard to spot. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2019-01-30convert do_remount_sb() to fs_contextDavid Howells
Replace do_remount_sb() with a function, reconfigure_super(), that's fs_context aware. The fs_context is expected to be parameterised already and have ->root pointing to the superblock to be reconfigured. A legacy wrapper is provided that is intended to be called from the fs_context ops when those appear, but for now is called directly from reconfigure_super(). This wrapper invokes the ->remount_fs() superblock op for the moment. It is intended that the remount_fs() op will be phased out. The fs_context->purpose is set to FS_CONTEXT_FOR_RECONFIGURE to indicate that the context is being used for reconfiguration. do_umount_root() is provided to consolidate remount-to-R/O for umount and emergency remount by creating a context and invoking reconfiguration. do_remount(), do_umount() and do_emergency_remount_callback() are switched to use the new process. [AV -- fold UMOUNT and EMERGENCY_REMOUNT in; fixes the umount / bug, gets rid of pointless complexity] [AV -- set ->net_ns in all cases; nfs remount will need that] [AV -- shift security_sb_remount() call into reconfigure_super(); the callers that didn't do security_sb_remount() have NULL fc->security anyway, so it's a no-op for them] Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Co-developed-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2019-01-30vfs_get_tree(): evict the call of security_sb_kern_mount()Al Viro
Right now vfs_get_tree() calls security_sb_kern_mount() (i.e. mount MAC) unless it gets MS_KERNMOUNT or MS_SUBMOUNT in flags. Doing it that way is both clumsy and imprecise. Consider the callers' tree of vfs_get_tree(): vfs_get_tree() <- do_new_mount() <- vfs_kern_mount() <- simple_pin_fs() <- vfs_submount() <- kern_mount_data() <- init_mount_tree() <- btrfs_mount() <- vfs_get_tree() <- nfs_do_root_mount() <- nfs4_try_mount() <- nfs_fs_mount() <- vfs_get_tree() <- nfs4_referral_mount() do_new_mount() always does need MAC (we are guaranteed that neither MS_KERNMOUNT nor MS_SUBMOUNT will be passed there). simple_pin_fs(), vfs_submount() and kern_mount_data() pass explicit flags inhibiting that check. So does nfs4_referral_mount() (the flags there are ulimately coming from vfs_submount()). init_mount_tree() is called too early for anything LSM-related; it doesn't matter whether we attempt those checks, they'll do nothing. Finally, in case of btrfs_mount() and nfs_fs_mount(), doing MAC is pointless - either the caller will do it, or the flags are such that we wouldn't have done it either. In other words, the one and only case when we want that check done is when we are called from do_new_mount(), and there we want it unconditionally. So let's simply move it there. The superblock is still locked, so nobody is going to get access to it (via ustat(2), etc.) until we get a chance to apply the checks - we are free to move them to any point up to where we drop ->s_umount (in do_new_mount_fc()).

2019-01-30vfs: Introduce fs_context, switch vfs_kern_mount() to it.David Howells
Introduce a filesystem context concept to be used during superblock creation for mount and superblock reconfiguration for remount. This is allocated at the beginning of the mount procedure and into it is placed: (1) Filesystem type. (2) Namespaces. (3) Source/Device names (there may be multiple). (4) Superblock flags (SB_*). (5) Security details. (6) Filesystem-specific data, as set by the mount options. Accessor functions are then provided to set up a context, parameterise it from monolithic mount data (the data page passed to mount(2)) and tear it down again. A legacy wrapper is provided that implements what will be the basic operations, wrapping access to filesystems that aren't yet aware of the fs_context. Finally, vfs_kern_mount() is changed to make use of the fs_context and mount_fs() is replaced by vfs_get_tree(), called from vfs_kern_mount().

2018-12-21LSM: hide struct security_mnt_opts from any generic codeAl Viro
Keep void * instead, allocate on demand (in parse_str_opts, at the moment). Eventually both selinux and smack will be better off with private structures with several strings in those, rather than this "counter and two pointers to dynamically allocated arrays" ugliness. This commit allows to do that at leisure, without disrupting anything outside of given module. Changes: * instead of struct security_mnt_opt use an opaque pointer initialized to NULL. * security_sb_eat_lsm_opts(), security_sb_parse_opts_str() and security_free_mnt_opts() take it as var argument (i.e. as void **); call sites are unchanged. * security_sb_set_mnt_opts() and security_sb_remount() take it by value (i.e. as void *). * new method: ->sb_free_mnt_opts(). Takes void *, does whatever freeing that needs to be done. * ->sb_set_mnt_opts() and ->sb_remount() might get NULL as mnt_opts argument, meaning "empty".
