commit cb2239c198 upstream.
When cleaning up peer group ids in the failure path we need to make sure
to hold on to the namespace lock. Otherwise another thread might just
turn the mount from a shared into a non-shared mount concurrently.

Pull idmapping updates from Christian Brauner:
"Last cycle we've already made the interaction with idmapped mounts
more robust and type safe by introducing the vfs{g,u}id_t type. This
cycle we concluded the conversion and removed the legacy helpers.
Currently we still pass around the plain namespace that was attached
to a mount. This is in general pretty convenient but it makes it easy
to conflate namespaces that are relevant on the filesystem - with
namespaces that are relevent on the mount level. Especially for
filesystem developers without detailed knowledge in this area this can
be a potential source for bugs.
Instead of passing the plain namespace we introduce a dedicated type
struct mnt_idmap and replace the pointer with a pointer to a struct
mnt_idmap. There are no semantic or size changes for the mount struct
caused by this.
We then start converting all places aware of idmapped mounts to rely
on struct mnt_idmap. Once the conversion is done all helpers down to
the really low-level make_vfs{g,u}id() and from_vfs{g,u}id() will take
a struct mnt_idmap argument instead of two namespace arguments. This
way it becomes impossible to conflate the two removing and thus
eliminating the possibility of any bugs. Fwiw, I fixed some issues in
that area a while ago in ntfs3 and ksmbd in the past. Afterwards only
low-level code can ultimately use the associated namespace for any
permission checks. Even most of the vfs can be completely obivious
about this ultimately and filesystems will never interact with it in
any form in the future.
A struct mnt_idmap currently encompasses a simple refcount and pointer
to the relevant namespace the mount is idmapped to. If a mount isn't
idmapped then it will point to a static nop_mnt_idmap and if it
doesn't that it is idmapped. As usual there are no allocations or
anything happening for non-idmapped mounts. Everthing is carefully
written to be a nop for non-idmapped mounts as has always been the
case.
If an idmapped mount is created a struct mnt_idmap is allocated and a
reference taken on the relevant namespace. Each mount that gets
idmapped or inherits the idmap simply bumps the reference count on
struct mnt_idmap. Just a reminder that we only allow a mount to change
it's idmapping a single time and only if it hasn't already been
attached to the filesystems and has no active writers.
The actual changes are fairly straightforward but this will have huge
benefits for maintenance and security in the long run even if it
causes some churn.
Note that this also makes it possible to extend struct mount_idmap in
the future. For example, it would be possible to place the namespace
pointer in an anonymous union together with an idmapping struct. This
would allow us to expose an api to userspace that would let it specify
idmappings directly instead of having to go through the detour of
setting up namespaces at all"

copy_mnt_ns() has the old tree copied, with mntns binding *and* anything
bound on top of them skipped. Then it proceeds to walk both trees in
parallel. Unfortunately, it doesn't get the "skip the stuff we'd skipped

Idmapped mounts should not allow a user to map file ownsership into a
range of ids which is not under the control of that user. However, we
currently don't check whether the mounter is privileged wrt to the
target user namespace.
Currently no FS_USERNS_MOUNT filesystems support idmapped mounts, thus
this is not a problem as only CAP_SYS_ADMIN in init_user_ns is allowed
to set up idmapped mounts. But this could change in the future, so add a
check to refuse to create idmapped mounts when the mounter does not have
CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the target user namespace.

Hold writers when changing a mount's idmapping to make it more robust.
The vfs layer takes care to retrieve the idmapping of a mount once
ensuring that the idmapping used for vfs permission checking is
identical to the idmapping passed down to the filesystem.
For ioctl codepaths the filesystem itself is responsible for taking the
idmapping into account if they need to. While all filesystems with
FS_ALLOW_IDMAP raised take the same precautions as the vfs we should
enforce it explicitly by making sure there are no active writers on the
relevant mount while changing the idmapping.
This is similar to turning a mount ro with the difference that in
contrast to turning a mount ro changing the idmapping can only ever be
done once while a mount can transition between ro and rw as much as it
wants.
This is a minor user-visible change. But it is extremely unlikely to
matter. The caller must've created a detached mount via OPEN_TREE_CLONE
and then handed that O_PATH fd to another process or thread which then
must've gotten a writable fd for that mount and started creating files
in there while the caller is still changing mount properties. While not
impossible it will be an extremely rare corner-case and should in
general be considered a bug in the application. Consider making a mount
MOUNT_ATTR_NOEXEC or MOUNT_ATTR_NODEV while allowing someone else to
perform lookups or exec'ing in parallel by handing them a copy of the
OPEN_TREE_CLONE fd or another fd beneath that mount.

Commit f8b92ba67c ("mount: Add mount warning for impending timestamp

limits, that is printed upon each writable mount or remount.
This can result in a lot of unnecessary messages in the kernel log in
setups where filesystems are being frequently remounted (or mounted
multiple times).
Avoid this by setting a superblock flag which indicates that the warning
has been emitted at least once for any particular mount, as suggested in
[1].

Simplify this and just use the pointer. If we successfully changed

In order to determine whether we need to call mnt_unhold_writers() in
mount_setattr_commit() we currently do not just check whether
MNT_WRITE_HOLD is set but also if a read-only mount was requested.
However, checking whether MNT_WRITE_HOLD is set is enough. Setting
MNT_WRITE_HOLD requires lock_mount_hash() to be held and it must be
unset before calling unlock_mount_hash(). This guarantees that if we see
MNT_WRITE_HOLD we know that we were the ones who set it earlier. We
don't need to care about why we set it. Plus, leaving this additional
read-only check in makes the code more confusing because it implies that
MNT_WRITE_HOLD could've been set by another thread when it really can't.

This moves the namespace sysctls to its own file as part of the

Since we have now removed all sysctls for "fs", we now have to declare
it on the filesystem code, we do that using the new helper, which
reduces boiler plate code.
We rename init_fs_shared_sysctls() to init_fs_sysctls() to reflect that
now fs/sysctls.c is taking on the burden of being the first to register
the base directory as well.
Lastly, since init code will load in the order in which we link it we
have to move the sysctl code to be linked in early, so that its early
init routine runs prior to other fs code. This way, other filesystem
code can register their own sysctls using the helpers after this:
* register_sysctl_init()
* register_sysctl()

Pull fs idmapping updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the work to enable the idmapping infrastructure to
support idmapped mounts of filesystems mounted with an idmapping.
In addition this contains various cleanups that avoid repeated
open-coding of the same functionality and simplify the code in quite a
few places.
We also finish the renaming of the mapping helpers we started a few
kernel releases back and move them to a dedicated header to not
continue polluting the fs header needlessly with low-level idmapping
helpers. With this series the fs header only contains idmapping
helpers that interact with fs objects.
Currently we only support idmapped mounts for filesystems mounted
without an idmapping themselves. This was a conscious decision
mentioned in multiple places (cf. [1]).
As explained at length in [3] it is perfectly fine to extend support
for idmapped mounts to filesystem's mounted with an idmapping should
the need arise. The need has been there for some time now (cf. [2]).
Before we can port any filesystem that is mountable with an idmapping
to support idmapped mounts in the coming cycles, we need to first
extend the mapping helpers to account for the filesystem's idmapping.
This again, is explained at length in our documentation at [3] and
also in the individual commit messages so here's an overview.
Currently, the low-level mapping helpers implement the remapping
algorithms described in [3] in a simplified manner as we could rely on
the fact that all filesystems supporting idmapped mounts are mounted
without an idmapping.
In contrast, filesystems mounted with an idmapping are very likely to
not use an identity mapping and will instead use a non-identity
mapping. So the translation step from or into the filesystem's
idmapping in the remapping algorithm cannot be skipped for such
filesystems.
Non-idmapped filesystems and filesystems not supporting idmapped
mounts are unaffected by this change as the remapping algorithms can
take the same shortcut as before. If the low-level helpers detect that
they are dealing with an idmapped mount but the underlying filesystem
is mounted without an idmapping we can rely on the previous shortcut
and can continue to skip the translation step from or into the
filesystem's idmapping. And of course, if the low-level helpers detect
that they are not dealing with an idmapped mount they can simply
return the relevant id unchanged; no remapping needs to be performed
at all.
These checks guarantee that only the minimal amount of work is
performed. As before, if idmapped mounts aren't used the low-level
helpers are idempotent and no work is performed at all"

In previous patches we added new and modified existing helpers to handle
idmapped mounts of filesystems mounted with an idmapping. In this final
patch we convert all relevant places in the vfs to actually pass the
filesystem's idmapping into these helpers.
With this the vfs is in shape to handle idmapped mounts of filesystems
mounted with an idmapping. Note that this is just the generic
infrastructure. Actually adding support for idmapped mounts to a
filesystem mountable with an idmapping is follow-up work.
In this patch we extend the definition of an idmapped mount from a mount
that that has the initial idmapping attached to it to a mount that has
an idmapping attached to it which is not the same as the idmapping the
filesystem was mounted with.
As before we do not allow the initial idmapping to be attached to a
mount. In addition this patch prevents that the idmapping the filesystem
was mounted with can be attached to a mount created based on this
filesystem.
This has multiple reasons and advantages. First, attaching the initial
idmapping or the filesystem's idmapping doesn't make much sense as in
both cases the values of the i_{g,u}id and other places where k{g,u}ids
are used do not change. Second, a user that really wants to do this for
whatever reason can just create a separate dedicated identical idmapping
to attach to the mount. Third, we can continue to use the initial
idmapping as an indicator that a mount is not idmapped allowing us to
continue to keep passing the initial idmapping into the mapping helpers
to tell them that something isn't an idmapped mount even if the
filesystem is mounted with an idmapping.

Multiple places open-code the same check to determine whether a given
mount is idmapped. Introduce a simple helper function that can be used
instead. This allows us to get rid of the fragile open-coding. We will
later change the check that is used to determine whether a given mount
is idmapped. Introducing a helper allows us to do this in a single
place instead of doing it for multiple places.

The MNT_WRITE_HOLD flag is used to hold back any new writers while the
mount point is about to be made read-only. __mnt_want_write() then loops
with disabled preemption until this flag disappears. Callers of
mnt_hold_writers() (which sets the flag) hold the spinlock_t of
mount_lock (seqlock_t) which disables preemption on !PREEMPT_RT and
ensures the task is not scheduled away so that the spinning side spins
for a long time.
On PREEMPT_RT the spinlock_t does not disable preemption and so it is
possible that the task setting MNT_WRITE_HOLD is preempted by task with
higher priority which then spins infinitely waiting for MNT_WRITE_HOLD
to get removed.
Acquire mount_lock::lock which is held by setter of MNT_WRITE_HOLD. This
will PI-boost the owner and wait until the lock is dropped and which
means that MNT_WRITE_HOLD is cleared again.

Container admin can create new namespaces and force kernel to allocate up
to several pages of memory for the namespaces and its associated
structures.
Net and uts namespaces have enabled accounting for such allocations. It
makes sense to account for rest ones to restrict the host's memory
consumption from inside the memcg-limited container.

Patch series "memcg accounting from OpenVZ", v7.
OpenVZ uses memory accounting 20+ years since v2.2.x linux kernels.
Initially we used our own accounting subsystem, then partially committed
it to upstream, and a few years ago switched to cgroups v1. Now we're
rebasing again, revising our old patches and trying to push them upstream.
We try to protect the host system from any misuse of kernel memory
allocation triggered by untrusted users inside the containers.
Patch-set is addressed mostly to cgroups maintainers and cgroups@ mailing
list, though I would be very grateful for any comments from maintainersi
of affected subsystems or other people added in cc:
Compared to the upstream, we additionally account the following kernel objects:
- network devices and its Tx/Rx queues
- ipv4/v6 addresses and routing-related objects
- inet_bind_bucket cache objects
- VLAN group arrays
- ipv6/sit: ip_tunnel_prl
- scm_fp_list objects used by SCM_RIGHTS messages of Unix sockets
- nsproxy and namespace objects itself
- IPC objects: semaphores, message queues and share memory segments
- mounts
- pollfd and select bits arrays
- signals and posix timers
- file lock
- fasync_struct used by the file lease code and driver's fasync queues
- tty objects
- per-mm LDT
We have an incorrect/incomplete/obsoleted accounting for few other kernel
objects: sk_filter, af_packets, netlink and xt_counters for iptables.
They require rework and probably will be dropped at all.
Also we're going to add an accounting for nft, however it is not ready
yet.
We have not tested performance on upstream, however, our performance team
compares our current RHEL7-based production kernel and reports that they
are at least not worse as the according original RHEL7 kernel.
This patch (of 10):
The kernel allocates ~400 bytes of 'struct mount' for any new mount.
Creating a new mount namespace clones most of the parent mounts, and this
can be repeated many times. Additionally, each mount allocates up to
PATH_MAX=4096 bytes for mnt->mnt_devname.
It makes sense to account for these allocations to restrict the host's
memory consumption from inside the memcg-limited container.

I've heard of one problem in all that time: Someone migrated from an
older distro that supported "-o mand" to one that didn't, and the host
had a fstab entry with "mand" in it which broke on reboot. They didn't
actually _use_ mandatory locking so they just removed the mount option
and moved on.
This patch rips out mandatory locking support wholesale from the kernel,
along with the Kconfig option and the Documentation file. It also
changes the mount code to ignore the "mand" mount option instead of
erroring out, and to throw a big, ugly warning.

Previously a sharing group (shared and master ids pair) can be only
inherited when mount is created via bindmount. This patch adds an
ability to add an existing private mount into an existing sharing group.
With this functionality one can first create the desired mount tree from
only private mounts (without the need to care about undesired mount
propagation or mount creation order implied by sharing group
dependencies), and next then setup any desired mount sharing between
those mounts in tree as needed.
This allows CRIU to restore any set of mount namespaces, mount trees and
sharing group trees for a container.
We have many issues with restoring mounts in CRIU related to sharing
groups and propagation:
- reverse sharing groups vs mount tree order requires complex mounts
reordering which mostly implies also using some temporary mounts
(please see https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/3/23/569 for more info)
- mount() syscall creates tons of mounts due to propagation
- mount re-parenting due to propagation
- "Mount Trap" due to propagation
- "Non Uniform" propagation, meaning that with different tricks with
mount order and temporary children-"lock" mounts one can create mount
trees which can't be restored without those tricks
(see https://www.linuxplumbersconf.org/event/7/contributions/640/)
With this new functionality we can resolve all the problems with
propagation at once.

We currently don't have any filesystems that support idmapped mounts
which are mountable inside a user namespace. That was a deliberate
decision for now as a userns root can just mount the filesystem
themselves. So enforce this restriction explicitly until there's a real
use-case for this. This way we can notice it and will have a chance to
adapt and audit our translation helpers and fstests appropriately if we
need to support such filesystems.

Introduce a new mount bind mount property to allow idmapping mounts. The
MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP flag can be set via the new mount_setattr() syscall
together with a file descriptor referring to a user namespace.
The user namespace referenced by the namespace file descriptor will be
attached to the bind mount. All interactions with the filesystem going
through that mount will be mapped according to the mapping specified in
the user namespace attached to it.
Using user namespaces to mark mounts means we can reuse all the existing
infrastructure in the kernel that already exists to handle idmappings
and can also use this for permission checking to allow unprivileged user
to create idmapped mounts in the future.
Idmapping a mount is decoupled from the caller's user and mount
namespace. This means idmapped mounts can be created in the initial
user namespace which is an important use-case for systemd-homed,
portable usb-sticks between systems, sharing data between the initial
user namespace and unprivileged containers, and other use-cases that
have been brought up. For example, assume a home directory where all
files are owned by uid and gid 1000 and the home directory is brought to
a new laptop where the user has id 12345. The system administrator can
simply create a mount of this home directory with a mapping of
1000:12345:1 and other mappings to indicate the ids should be kept.
(With this it is e.g. also possible to create idmapped mounts on the
host with an identity mapping 1:1:100000 where the root user is not
mapped. A user with root access that e.g. has been pivot rooted into
such a mount on the host will be not be able to execute, read, write, or
create files as root.)
Given that mapping a mount is decoupled from the caller's user namespace
a sufficiently privileged process such as a container manager can set up
an idmapped mount for the container and the container can simply pivot
root to it. There's no need for the container to do anything. The mount
will appear correctly mapped independent of the user namespace the
container uses. This means we don't need to mark a mount as idmappable.
In order to create an idmapped mount the caller must currently be
privileged in the user namespace of the superblock the mount belongs to.
Once a mount has been idmapped we don't allow it to change its mapping.
This keeps permission checking and life-cycle management simple. Users
wanting to change the idmapped can always create a new detached mount
with a different idmapping.

This implements the missing mount_setattr() syscall. While the new mount
api allows to change the properties of a superblock there is currently
no way to change the properties of a mount or a mount tree using file
descriptors which the new mount api is based on. In addition the old
mount api has the restriction that mount options cannot be applied
recursively. This hasn't changed since changing mount options on a
per-mount basis was implemented in [1] and has been a frequent request
not just for convenience but also for security reasons. The legacy
mount syscall is unable to accommodate this behavior without introducing
a whole new set of flags because MS_REC | MS_REMOUNT | MS_BIND |
MS_RDONLY | MS_NOEXEC | [...] only apply the mount option to the topmost
mount. Changing MS_REC to apply to the whole mount tree would mean
introducing a significant uapi change and would likely cause significant
regressions.
The new mount_setattr() syscall allows to recursively clear and set
mount options in one shot. Multiple calls to change mount options
requesting the same changes are idempotent:
int mount_setattr(int dfd, const char *path, unsigned flags,
struct mount_attr *uattr, size_t usize);
Flags to modify path resolution behavior are specified in the @flags
argument. Currently, AT_EMPTY_PATH, AT_RECURSIVE, AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW,
and AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT are supported. If useful, additional lookup flags to
restrict path resolution as introduced with openat2() might be supported
in the future.
The mount_setattr() syscall can be expected to grow over time and is
designed with extensibility in mind. It follows the extensible syscall
pattern we have used with other syscalls such as openat2(), clone3(),
sched_{set,get}attr(), and others.
The set of mount options is passed in the uapi struct mount_attr which
currently has the following layout:
struct mount_attr {
__u64 attr_set;
__u64 attr_clr;
__u64 propagation;
__u64 userns_fd;
};
The @attr_set and @attr_clr members are used to clear and set mount
options. This way a user can e.g. request that a set of flags is to be
raised such as turning mounts readonly by raising MOUNT_ATTR_RDONLY in
@attr_set while at the same time requesting that another set of flags is
to be lowered such as removing noexec from a mount tree by specifying
MOUNT_ATTR_NOEXEC in @attr_clr.
Note, since the MOUNT_ATTR_<atime> values are an enum starting from 0,
not a bitmap, users wanting to transition to a different atime setting
cannot simply specify the atime setting in @attr_set, but must also
specify MOUNT_ATTR__ATIME in the @attr_clr field. So we ensure that
MOUNT_ATTR__ATIME can't be partially set in @attr_clr and that @attr_set
can't have any atime bits set if MOUNT_ATTR__ATIME isn't set in
@attr_clr.
The @propagation field lets callers specify the propagation type of a
mount tree. Propagation is a single property that has four different
settings and as such is not really a flag argument but an enum.
Specifically, it would be unclear what setting and clearing propagation
settings in combination would amount to. The legacy mount() syscall thus
forbids the combination of multiple propagation settings too. The goal
is to keep the semantics of mount propagation somewhat simple as they
are overly complex as it is.
The @userns_fd field lets user specify a user namespace whose idmapping
becomes the idmapping of the mount. This is implemented and explained in
detail in the next patch.

Add a simple helper to translate uapi MOUNT_ATTR_* flags to MNT_* flags
which we will use in follow-up patches too.

When a mount is marked read-only we set MNT_WRITE_HOLD on it if there
aren't currently any active writers. Split this logic out into simple
helpers that we can use in follow-up patches.

do_reconfigure_mnt() used to take the down_write(&sb->s_umount) lock
which seems unnecessary since we're not changing the superblock. We're
only checking whether it is already read-only. Setting other mount
attributes is protected by lock_mount_hash() afaict and not by s_umount.
The history of down_write(&sb->s_umount) lock being taken when setting
mount attributes dates back to the introduction of MNT_READONLY in [2].
This introduced the concept of having read-only mounts in contrast to
just having a read-only superblock. When it got introduced it was simply
plumbed into do_remount() which already took down_write(&sb->s_umount)
because it was only used to actually change the superblock before [2].
Afaict, it would've already been possible back then to only use
down_read(&sb->s_umount) for MS_BIND | MS_REMOUNT since actual mount
options were protected by the vfsmount lock already. But that would've
meant special casing the locking for MS_BIND | MS_REMOUNT in
do_remount() which people might not have considered worth it.
Then in [1] MS_BIND | MS_REMOUNT mount option changes were split out of
do_remount() into do_reconfigure_mnt() but the down_write(&sb->s_umount)
lock was simply copied over.
Now that we have this be a separate helper only take the
down_read(&sb->s_umount) lock since we're only interested in checking
whether the super block is currently read-only and blocking any writers
from changing it. Essentially, checking that the super block is
read-only has the advantage that we can avoid having to go into the
slowpath and through MNT_WRITE_HOLD and can simply set the read-only
flag on the mount in set_mount_attributes().

The lock_mount_hash() and unlock_mount_hash() helpers are never called
outside a single file. Remove them from the header and make them static
to reflect this fact. There's no need to have them callable from other
places right now, as Christoph observed.

Changing mount options always ends up taking lock_mount_hash() but when
MNT_READONLY is requested and neither the mount nor the superblock are
MNT_READONLY we end up taking the lock, dropping it, and retaking it to
change the other mount attributes. Instead, let's acquire the lock once
when changing the mount attributes. This simplifies the locking in these
codepath, makes them easier to reason about and avoids having to
reacquire the lock right after dropping it.

In order to support per-mount idmappings vfsmounts are marked with user
namespaces. The idmapping of the user namespace will be used to map the
ids of vfs objects when they are accessed through that mount. By default
all vfsmounts are marked with the initial user namespace. The initial
user namespace is used to indicate that a mount is not idmapped. All
operations behave as before.
Based on prior discussions we want to attach the whole user namespace
and not just a dedicated idmapping struct. This allows us to reuse all
the helpers that already exist for dealing with idmappings instead of
introducing a whole new range of helpers. In addition, if we decide in
the future that we are confident enough to enable unprivileged users to
setup idmapped mounts the permission checking can take into account
whether the caller is privileged in the user namespace the mount is
currently marked with.
Later patches enforce that once a mount has been idmapped it can't be
remapped. This keeps permission checking and life-cycle management
simple. Users wanting to change the idmapped can always create a new
detached mount with a different idmapping.
Add a new mnt_userns member to vfsmount and two simple helpers to
retrieve the mnt_userns from vfsmounts and files.
The idea to attach user namespaces to vfsmounts has been floated around
in various forms at Linux Plumbers in ~2018 with the original idea
tracing back to a discussion in 2017 at a conference in St. Petersburg
between Christoph, Tycho, and myself.

Unfortunately, there's userland code that used to rely upon these
checks being done before anything else to check for UMOUNT_NOFOLLOW
support. That broke in 41525f56e2 ("fs: refactor ksys_umount").
Separate those from the rest of checks and move them to ksys_umount();
unlike everything else in there, this can be sanely done there.
