This cycle we ported all filesystems to the new posix acl api. While
looking at further simplifications in this area to remove the last
remnants of the generic dummy posix acl handlers we realized that we
regressed fuse daemons that don't set FUSE_POSIX_ACL but still make use
of posix acls.
With the change to a dedicated posix acl api interacting with posix acls
doesn't go through the old xattr codepaths anymore and instead only
relies the get acl and set acl inode operations.
Before this change fuse daemons that don't set FUSE_POSIX_ACL were able
to get and set posix acl albeit with two caveats. First, that posix acls
aren't cached. And second, that they aren't used for permission checking
in the vfs.
We regressed that use-case as we currently refuse to retrieve any posix
acls if they aren't enabled via FUSE_POSIX_ACL. So older fuse daemons
would see a change in behavior.
We can restore the old behavior in multiple ways. We could change the
new posix acl api and look for a dedicated xattr handler and if we find
one prefer that over the dedicated posix acl api. That would break the
consistency of the new posix acl api so we would very much prefer not to
do that.
We could introduce a new ACL_*_CACHE sentinel that would instruct the
vfs permission checking codepath to not call into the filesystem and
ignore acls.
But a more straightforward fix for v6.2 is to do the same thing that
Overlayfs does and give fuse a separate get acl method for permission
checking. Overlayfs uses this to express different needs for vfs
permission lookup and acl based retrieval via the regular system call
path as well. Let fuse do the same for now. This way fuse can continue
to refuse to retrieve posix acls for daemons that don't set
FUSE_POSXI_ACL for permission checking while allowing a fuse server to
retrieve it via the usual system calls.
In the future, we could extend the get acl inode operation to not just
pass a simple boolean to indicate rcu lookup but instead make it a flag
argument. Then in addition to passing the information that this is an
rcu lookup to the filesystem we could also introduce a flag that tells
the filesystem that this is a request from the vfs to use these acls for
permission checking. Then fuse could refuse the get acl request for
permission checking when the daemon doesn't have FUSE_POSIX_ACL set in
the same get acl method. This would also help Overlayfs and allow us to
remove the second method for it as well.
But since that change is more invasive as we need to update the get acl
inode operation for multiple filesystems we should not do this as a fix
for v6.2. Instead we will do this for the v6.3 merge window.
Fwiw, since posix acls are now always correctly translated in the new
posix acl api we could also allow them to be used for daemons without
FUSE_POSIX_ACL that are not mounted on the host. But this is behavioral
change and again if dones should be done for v6.3. For now, let's just
restore the original behavior.
A nice side-effect of this change is that for fuse daemons with and
without FUSE_POSIX_ACL the same code is used for posix acls in a
backwards compatible way. This also means we can remove the legacy xattr
handlers completely. We've also added comments to explain the expected
behavior for daemons without FUSE_POSIX_ACL into the code.

Pull setgid inheritance updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the work to make setgid inheritance consistent between
modifying a file and when changing ownership or mode as this has been
a repeated source of very subtle bugs. The gist is that we perform the
same permission checks in the write path as we do in the ownership and
mode changing paths after this series where we're currently doing
different things.
We've already made setgid inheritance a lot more consistent and
reliable in the last releases by moving setgid stripping from the
individual filesystems up into the vfs. This aims to make the logic
even more consistent and easier to understand and also to fix
long-standing overlayfs setgid inheritance bugs. Miklos was nice
enough to just let me carry the trivial overlayfs patches from Amir
too.
Below is a more detailed explanation how the current difference in
setgid handling lead to very subtle bugs exemplified via overlayfs
which is a victim of the current rules. I hope this explains why I
think taking the regression risk here is worth it.
A long while ago I found a few setgid inheritance bugs in overlayfs in
the write path in certain conditions. Amir recently picked this back
up in [1] and I jumped on board to fix this more generally.
On the surface all that overlayfs would need to fix setgid inheritance
would be to call file_remove_privs() or file_modified() but actually
that isn't enough because the setgid inheritance api is wildly
inconsistent in that area.
Before this pr setgid stripping in file_remove_privs()'s old
should_remove_suid() helper was inconsistent with other parts of the
vfs. Specifically, it only raises ATTR_KILL_SGID if the inode is
S_ISGID and S_IXGRP but not if the inode isn't in the caller's groups
and the caller isn't privileged over the inode although we require
this already in setattr_prepare() and setattr_copy() and so all
filesystem implement this requirement implicitly because they have to
use setattr_{prepare,copy}() anyway.
But the inconsistency shows up in setgid stripping bugs for overlayfs
in xfstests (e.g., generic/673, generic/683, generic/685, generic/686,
generic/687). For example, we test whether suid and setgid stripping
works correctly when performing various write-like operations as an
unprivileged user (fallocate, reflink, write, etc.):
echo "Test 1 - qa_user, non-exec file $verb"
setup_testfile
chmod a+rws $junk_file
commit_and_check "$qa_user" "$verb" 64k 64k
The test basically creates a file with 6666 permissions. While the
file has the S_ISUID and S_ISGID bits set it does not have the S_IXGRP
set.
On a regular filesystem like xfs what will happen is:
sys_fallocate()
-> vfs_fallocate()
-> xfs_file_fallocate()
-> file_modified()
-> __file_remove_privs()
-> dentry_needs_remove_privs()
-> should_remove_suid()
-> __remove_privs()
newattrs.ia_valid = ATTR_FORCE | kill;
-> notify_change()
-> setattr_copy()
In should_remove_suid() we can see that ATTR_KILL_SUID is raised
unconditionally because the file in the test has S_ISUID set.
But we also see that ATTR_KILL_SGID won't be set because while the
file is S_ISGID it is not S_IXGRP (see above) which is a condition for
ATTR_KILL_SGID being raised.
So by the time we call notify_change() we have attr->ia_valid set to
ATTR_KILL_SUID | ATTR_FORCE.
Now notify_change() sees that ATTR_KILL_SUID is set and does:
ia_valid = attr->ia_valid |= ATTR_MODE
attr->ia_mode = (inode->i_mode & ~S_ISUID);
which means that when we call setattr_copy() later we will definitely
update inode->i_mode. Note that attr->ia_mode still contains S_ISGID.
Now we call into the filesystem's ->setattr() inode operation which
will end up calling setattr_copy(). Since ATTR_MODE is set we will
hit:
if (ia_valid & ATTR_MODE) {
umode_t mode = attr->ia_mode;
vfsgid_t vfsgid = i_gid_into_vfsgid(mnt_userns, inode);
if (!vfsgid_in_group_p(vfsgid) &&
!capable_wrt_inode_uidgid(mnt_userns, inode, CAP_FSETID))
mode &= ~S_ISGID;
inode->i_mode = mode;
}
and since the caller in the test is neither capable nor in the group
of the inode the S_ISGID bit is stripped.
But assume the file isn't suid then ATTR_KILL_SUID won't be raised
which has the consequence that neither the setgid nor the suid bits
are stripped even though it should be stripped because the inode isn't
in the caller's groups and the caller isn't privileged over the inode.
If overlayfs is in the mix things become a bit more complicated and
the bug shows up more clearly.
When e.g., ovl_setattr() is hit from ovl_fallocate()'s call to
file_remove_privs() then ATTR_KILL_SUID and ATTR_KILL_SGID might be
raised but because the check in notify_change() is questioning the
ATTR_KILL_SGID flag again by requiring S_IXGRP for it to be stripped
the S_ISGID bit isn't removed even though it should be stripped:
sys_fallocate()
-> vfs_fallocate()
-> ovl_fallocate()
-> file_remove_privs()
-> dentry_needs_remove_privs()
-> should_remove_suid()
-> __remove_privs()
newattrs.ia_valid = ATTR_FORCE | kill;
-> notify_change()
-> ovl_setattr()
/* TAKE ON MOUNTER'S CREDS */
-> ovl_do_notify_change()
-> notify_change()
/* GIVE UP MOUNTER'S CREDS */
/* TAKE ON MOUNTER'S CREDS */
-> vfs_fallocate()
-> xfs_file_fallocate()
-> file_modified()
-> __file_remove_privs()
-> dentry_needs_remove_privs()
-> should_remove_suid()
-> __remove_privs()
newattrs.ia_valid = attr_force | kill;
-> notify_change()
The fix for all of this is to make file_remove_privs()'s
should_remove_suid() helper perform the same checks as we already
require in setattr_prepare() and setattr_copy() and have
notify_change() not pointlessly requiring S_IXGRP again. It doesn't
make any sense in the first place because the caller must calculate
the flags via should_remove_suid() anyway which would raise
ATTR_KILL_SGID
Note that some xfstests will now fail as these patches will cause the
setgid bit to be lost in certain conditions for unprivileged users
modifying a setgid file when they would've been kept otherwise. I
think this risk is worth taking and I explained and mentioned this
multiple times on the list [2].
Enforcing the rules consistently across write operations and
chmod/chown will lead to losing the setgid bit in cases were it
might've been retained before.
While I've mentioned this a few times but it's worth repeating just to
make sure that this is understood. For the sake of maintainability,
consistency, and security this is a risk worth taking.
If we really see regressions for workloads the fix is to have special
setgid handling in the write path again with different semantics from
chmod/chown and possibly additional duct tape for overlayfs. I'll
update the relevant xfstests with if you should decide to merge this
second setgid cleanup.
Before that people should be aware that there might be failures for
fstests where unprivileged users modify a setgid file"

Pull VFS acl updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the work that builds a dedicated vfs posix acl api.
The origins of this work trace back to v5.19 but it took quite a while
to understand the various filesystem specific implementations in
sufficient detail and also come up with an acceptable solution.
As we discussed and seen multiple times the current state of how posix
acls are handled isn't nice and comes with a lot of problems: The
current way of handling posix acls via the generic xattr api is error
prone, hard to maintain, and type unsafe for the vfs until we call
into the filesystem's dedicated get and set inode operations.
It is already the case that posix acls are special-cased to death all
the way through the vfs. There are an uncounted number of hacks that
operate on the uapi posix acl struct instead of the dedicated vfs
struct posix_acl. And the vfs must be involved in order to interpret
and fixup posix acls before storing them to the backing store, caching
them, reporting them to userspace, or for permission checking.
Currently a range of hacks and duct tape exist to make this work. As
with most things this is really no ones fault it's just something that
happened over time. But the code is hard to understand and difficult
to maintain and one is constantly at risk of introducing bugs and
regressions when having to touch it.
Instead of continuing to hack posix acls through the xattr handlers
this series builds a dedicated posix acl api solely around the get and
set inode operations.
Going forward, the vfs_get_acl(), vfs_remove_acl(), and vfs_set_acl()
helpers must be used in order to interact with posix acls. They
operate directly on the vfs internal struct posix_acl instead of
abusing the uapi posix acl struct as we currently do. In the end this
removes all of the hackiness, makes the codepaths easier to maintain,
and gets us type safety.
This series passes the LTP and xfstests suites without any
regressions. For xfstests the following combinations were tested:
- xfs
- ext4
- btrfs
- overlayfs
- overlayfs on top of idmapped mounts
- orangefs
- (limited) cifs
There's more simplifications for posix acls that we can make in the
future if the basic api has made it.
A few implementation details:
- The series makes sure to retain exactly the same security and
integrity module permission checks. Especially for the integrity
modules this api is a win because right now they convert the uapi
posix acl struct passed to them via a void pointer into the vfs
struct posix_acl format to perform permission checking on the mode.
There's a new dedicated security hook for setting posix acls which
passes the vfs struct posix_acl not a void pointer. Basing checking
on the posix acl stored in the uapi format is really unreliable.
The vfs currently hacks around directly in the uapi struct storing
values that frankly the security and integrity modules can't
correctly interpret as evidenced by bugs we reported and fixed in
this area. It's not necessarily even their fault it's just that the
format we provide to them is sub optimal.
- Some filesystems like 9p and cifs need access to the dentry in
order to get and set posix acls which is why they either only
partially or not even at all implement get and set inode
operations. For example, cifs allows setxattr() and getxattr()
operations but doesn't allow permission checking based on posix
acls because it can't implement a get acl inode operation.
Thus, this patch series updates the set acl inode operation to take
a dentry instead of an inode argument. However, for the get acl
inode operation we can't do this as the old get acl method is
called in e.g., generic_permission() and inode_permission(). These
helpers in turn are called in various filesystem's permission inode
operation. So passing a dentry argument to the old get acl inode
operation would amount to passing a dentry to the permission inode
operation which we shouldn't and probably can't do.
So instead of extending the existing inode operation Christoph
suggested to add a new one. He also requested to ensure that the
get and set acl inode operation taking a dentry are consistently
named. So for this version the old get acl operation is renamed to
->get_inode_acl() and a new ->get_acl() inode operation taking a
dentry is added. With this we can give both 9p and cifs get and set
acl inode operations and in turn remove their complex custom posix
xattr handlers.
In the future I hope to get rid of the inode method duplication but
it isn't like we have never had this situation. Readdir is just one
example. And frankly, the overall gain in type safety and the more
pleasant api wise are simply too big of a benefit to not accept
this duplication for a while.
- We've done a full audit of every codepaths using variant of the
current generic xattr api to get and set posix acls and
surprisingly it isn't that many places. There's of course always a
chance that we might have missed some and if so I'm sure we'll find
them soon enough.
The crucial codepaths to be converted are obviously stacking
filesystems such as ecryptfs and overlayfs.
For a list of all callers currently using generic xattr api helpers
see [2] including comments whether they support posix acls or not.
- The old vfs generic posix acl infrastructure doesn't obey the
create and replace semantics promised on the setxattr(2) manpage.
This patch series doesn't address this. It really is something we
should revisit later though.
The patches are roughly organized as follows:
(1) Change existing set acl inode operation to take a dentry
argument (Intended to be a non-functional change)
(2) Rename existing get acl method (Intended to be a non-functional
change)
(3) Implement get and set acl inode operations for filesystems that
couldn't implement one before because of the missing dentry.
That's mostly 9p and cifs (Intended to be a non-functional
change)
(4) Build posix acl api, i.e., add vfs_get_acl(), vfs_remove_acl(),
and vfs_set_acl() including security and integrity hooks
(Intended to be a non-functional change)
(5) Implement get and set acl inode operations for stacking
filesystems (Intended to be a non-functional change)
(6) Switch posix acl handling in stacking filesystems to new posix
acl api now that all filesystems it can stack upon support it.
(7) Switch vfs to new posix acl api (semantical change)
(8) Remove all now unused helpers
(9) Additional regression fixes reported after we merged this into
linux-next

This is a followup to a previous commit of mine [0], which added the
allow_sys_admin_access && capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN) check. This patch
rearranges the order of checks in fuse_allow_current_process without
changing functionality.
Commit 9ccf47b26b ("fuse: Add module param for CAP_SYS_ADMIN access
bypassing allow_other") added allow_sys_admin_access &&
capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN) check to the beginning of the function, with the
reasoning that allow_sys_admin_access should be an 'escape hatch' for users
with CAP_SYS_ADMIN, allowing them to skip any subsequent checks.
However, placing this new check first results in many capable() calls when
allow_sys_admin_access is set, where another check would've also returned
1. This can be problematic when a BPF program is tracing capable() calls.
At Meta we ran into such a scenario recently. On a host where
allow_sys_admin_access is set but most of the FUSE access is from processes
which would pass other checks - i.e. they don't need CAP_SYS_ADMIN 'escape
hatch' - this results in an unnecessary capable() call for each fs op. We
also have a daemon tracing capable() with BPF and doing some data
collection, so tracing these extraneous capable() calls has the potential
to regress performance for an application doing many FUSE ops.
So rearrange the order of these checks such that CAP_SYS_ADMIN 'escape
hatch' is checked last. Add a small helper, fuse_permissible_uidgid, to
make the logic easier to understand. Previously, if allow_other is set on
the fuse_conn, uid/git checking doesn't happen as current_in_userns result
is returned. These semantics are maintained here: fuse_permissible_uidgid
check only happens if allow_other is not set.

In general, as of now, in FUSE, direct writes on the same file are
serialized over inode lock i.e we hold inode lock for the full duration of
the write request. I could not find in fuse code and git history a comment
which clearly explains why this exclusive lock is taken for direct writes.
Following might be the reasons for acquiring an exclusive lock but not be
limited to
1) Our guess is some USER space fuse implementations might be relying on
this lock for serialization.
2) The lock protects against file read/write size races.
3) Ruling out any issues arising from partial write failures.
This patch relaxes the exclusive lock for direct non-extending writes only.
File size extending writes might not need the lock either, but we are not
entirely sure if there is a risk to introduce any kind of regression.
Furthermore, benchmarking with fio does not show a difference between patch
versions that take on file size extension a) an exclusive lock and b) a
shared lock.
A possible example of an issue with i_size extending writes are write error
cases. Some writes might succeed and others might fail for file system
internal reasons - for example ENOSPACE. With parallel file size extending
writes it _might_ be difficult to revert the action of the failing write,
especially to restore the right i_size.
With these changes, we allow non-extending parallel direct writes on the
same file with the help of a flag called FOPEN_PARALLEL_DIRECT_WRITES. If
this flag is set on the file (flag is passed from libfuse to fuse kernel as
part of file open/create), we do not take exclusive lock anymore, but
instead use a shared lock that allows non-extending writes to run in
parallel. FUSE implementations which rely on this inode lock for
serialization can continue to do so and serialized direct writes are still
the default. Implementations that do not do write serialization need to be
updated and need to set the FOPEN_PARALLEL_DIRECT_WRITES flag in their file
open/create reply.
On patch review there were concerns that network file systems (or vfs
multiple mounts of the same file system) might have issues with parallel
writes. We believe this is not the case, as this is just a local lock,
which network file systems could not rely on anyway. I.e. this lock is
just for local consistency.

Commit 8ed1f0e22f ("fs/fuse: fix ioctl type confusion") fixed a type
confusion bug by adding an ->f_op comparison.
Based on some off-list discussion back then, another check was added to
compare the f_cred->user_ns. This is not for security reasons, but was
based on the idea that a FUSE device FD should be using the UID/GID
mappings of its f_cred->user_ns, and those translations are done using
fc->user_ns, which matches the f_cred->user_ns of the initial FUSE device
FD thanks to the check in fuse_fill_super(). See also commit 8cb08329b0
("fuse: Support fuse filesystems outside of init_user_ns").
But FUSE_DEV_IOC_CLONE is, at a higher level, a *cloning* operation that
copies an existing context (with a weird API that involves first opening
/dev/fuse, then tying the resulting new FUSE device FD to an existing FUSE
instance). So if an application is already passing FUSE FDs across userns
boundaries and dealing with the resulting ID mapping complications somehow,
it doesn't make much sense to block this cloning operation.
I've heard that this check is an obstacle for some folks, and I don't see a
good reason to keep it, so remove it.

Add a flag to entry expiration that lets the filesystem expire a dentry
without kicking it out from the cache immediately.
This makes a difference for overmounted dentries, where plain invalidation
would detach all submounts before dropping the dentry from the cache. If
only expiry is set on the dentry, then any overmounts are left alone and
until ->d_revalidate() is called.
Note: ->d_revalidate() is not called for the case of following a submount,
so invalidation will only be triggered for the non-overmounted case. The
dentry could also be mounted in a different mount instance, in which case
any submounts will still be detached.

The use of kmap() is being deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page().
There are two main problems with kmap(): (1) It comes with an overhead as
the mapping space is restricted and protected by a global lock for
synchronization and (2) it also requires global TLB invalidation when the
kmap’s pool wraps and it might block when the mapping space is fully
utilized until a slot becomes available.
With kmap_local_page() the mappings are per thread, CPU local, can take
page faults, and can be called from any context (including interrupts).
It is faster than kmap() in kernels with HIGHMEM enabled. Furthermore,
the tasks can be preempted and, when they are scheduled to run again, the
kernel virtual addresses are restored and still valid.
Therefore, replace kmap() with kmap_local_page() in fuse_readdir_cached(),
it being the only call site of kmap() currently left in fs/fuse.

There's a race in fuse's readdir cache that can result in an uninitilized
page being read. The page lock is supposed to prevent this from happening
but in the following case it doesn't:
Two fuse_add_dirent_to_cache() start out and get the same parameters
(size=0,offset=0). One of them wins the race to create and lock the page,
after which it fills in data, sets rdc.size and unlocks the page.
In the meantime the page gets evicted from the cache before the other
instance gets to run. That one also creates the page, but finds the
size to be mismatched, bails out and leaves the uninitialized page in the
cache.
Fix by marking a filled page uptodate and ignoring non-uptodate pages.

The current way of setting and getting posix acls through the generic
xattr interface is error prone and type unsafe. The vfs needs to
interpret and fixup posix acls before storing or reporting it to
userspace. Various hacks exist to make this work. The code is hard to
understand and difficult to maintain in it's current form. Instead of
making this work by hacking posix acls through xattr handlers we are
building a dedicated posix acl api around the get and set inode
operations. This removes a lot of hackiness and makes the codepaths
easier to maintain. A lot of background can be found in [1].
The current inode operation for getting posix acls takes an inode
argument but various filesystems (e.g., 9p, cifs, overlayfs) need access
to the dentry. In contrast to the ->set_acl() inode operation we cannot
simply extend ->get_acl() to take a dentry argument. The ->get_acl()
inode operation is called from:
acl_permission_check()
-> check_acl()
-> get_acl()
which is part of generic_permission() which in turn is part of
inode_permission(). Both generic_permission() and inode_permission() are
called in the ->permission() handler of various filesystems (e.g.,
overlayfs). So simply passing a dentry argument to ->get_acl() would
amount to also having to pass a dentry argument to ->permission(). We
should avoid this unnecessary change.
So instead of extending the existing inode operation rename it from
->get_acl() to ->get_inode_acl() and add a ->get_acl() method later that
passes a dentry argument and which filesystems that need access to the
dentry can implement instead of ->get_inode_acl(). Filesystems like cifs
which allow setting and getting posix acls but not using them for
permission checking during lookup can simply not implement
->get_inode_acl().
This is intended to be a non-functional change.

Since some filesystem rely on the dentry being available to them when

operation. But since ->set_acl() is required in order to use the generic
posix acl xattr handlers filesystems that do not implement this inode
operation cannot use the handler and need to implement their own
dedicated posix acl handlers.
Update the ->set_acl() inode method to take a dentry argument. This
allows all filesystems to rely on ->set_acl().
As far as I can tell all codepaths can be switched to rely on the dentry
instead of just the inode. Note that the original motivation for passing
the dentry separate from the inode instead of just the dentry in the
xattr handlers was because of security modules that call
security_d_instantiate(). This hook is called during
d_instantiate_new(), d_add(), __d_instantiate_anon(), and
d_splice_alias() to initialize the inode's security context and possibly
to set security.* xattrs. Since this only affects security.* xattrs this
is completely irrelevant for posix acls.

Currently setgid stripping in file_remove_privs()'s should_remove_suid()
helper is inconsistent with other parts of the vfs. Specifically, it only
raises ATTR_KILL_SGID if the inode is S_ISGID and S_IXGRP but not if the
inode isn't in the caller's groups and the caller isn't privileged over the
inode although we require this already in setattr_prepare() and
setattr_copy() and so all filesystem implement this requirement implicitly
because they have to use setattr_{prepare,copy}() anyway.
But the inconsistency shows up in setgid stripping bugs for overlayfs in
xfstests (e.g., generic/673, generic/683, generic/685, generic/686,
generic/687). For example, we test whether suid and setgid stripping works
correctly when performing various write-like operations as an unprivileged
user (fallocate, reflink, write, etc.):
echo "Test 1 - qa_user, non-exec file $verb"
setup_testfile
chmod a+rws $junk_file
commit_and_check "$qa_user" "$verb" 64k 64k
The test basically creates a file with 6666 permissions. While the file has
the S_ISUID and S_ISGID bits set it does not have the S_IXGRP set. On a
regular filesystem like xfs what will happen is:
sys_fallocate()
-> vfs_fallocate()
-> xfs_file_fallocate()
-> file_modified()
-> __file_remove_privs()
-> dentry_needs_remove_privs()
-> should_remove_suid()
-> __remove_privs()
newattrs.ia_valid = ATTR_FORCE | kill;
-> notify_change()
-> setattr_copy()
In should_remove_suid() we can see that ATTR_KILL_SUID is raised
unconditionally because the file in the test has S_ISUID set.
But we also see that ATTR_KILL_SGID won't be set because while the file
is S_ISGID it is not S_IXGRP (see above) which is a condition for
ATTR_KILL_SGID being raised.
So by the time we call notify_change() we have attr->ia_valid set to
ATTR_KILL_SUID | ATTR_FORCE. Now notify_change() sees that
ATTR_KILL_SUID is set and does:
ia_valid = attr->ia_valid |= ATTR_MODE
attr->ia_mode = (inode->i_mode & ~S_ISUID);
which means that when we call setattr_copy() later we will definitely
update inode->i_mode. Note that attr->ia_mode still contains S_ISGID.
Now we call into the filesystem's ->setattr() inode operation which will
end up calling setattr_copy(). Since ATTR_MODE is set we will hit:
if (ia_valid & ATTR_MODE) {
umode_t mode = attr->ia_mode;
vfsgid_t vfsgid = i_gid_into_vfsgid(mnt_userns, inode);
if (!vfsgid_in_group_p(vfsgid) &&
!capable_wrt_inode_uidgid(mnt_userns, inode, CAP_FSETID))
mode &= ~S_ISGID;
inode->i_mode = mode;
}
and since the caller in the test is neither capable nor in the group of the
inode the S_ISGID bit is stripped.
But assume the file isn't suid then ATTR_KILL_SUID won't be raised which
has the consequence that neither the setgid nor the suid bits are stripped
even though it should be stripped because the inode isn't in the caller's
groups and the caller isn't privileged over the inode.
If overlayfs is in the mix things become a bit more complicated and the bug
shows up more clearly. When e.g., ovl_setattr() is hit from
ovl_fallocate()'s call to file_remove_privs() then ATTR_KILL_SUID and
ATTR_KILL_SGID might be raised but because the check in notify_change() is
questioning the ATTR_KILL_SGID flag again by requiring S_IXGRP for it to be
stripped the S_ISGID bit isn't removed even though it should be stripped:
sys_fallocate()
-> vfs_fallocate()
-> ovl_fallocate()
-> file_remove_privs()
-> dentry_needs_remove_privs()
-> should_remove_suid()
-> __remove_privs()
newattrs.ia_valid = ATTR_FORCE | kill;
-> notify_change()
-> ovl_setattr()
// TAKE ON MOUNTER'S CREDS
-> ovl_do_notify_change()
-> notify_change()
// GIVE UP MOUNTER'S CREDS
// TAKE ON MOUNTER'S CREDS
-> vfs_fallocate()
-> xfs_file_fallocate()
-> file_modified()
-> __file_remove_privs()
-> dentry_needs_remove_privs()
-> should_remove_suid()
-> __remove_privs()
newattrs.ia_valid = attr_force | kill;
-> notify_change()
The fix for all of this is to make file_remove_privs()'s
should_remove_suid() helper to perform the same checks as we already
require in setattr_prepare() and setattr_copy() and have notify_change()
not pointlessly requiring S_IXGRP again. It doesn't make any sense in the
first place because the caller must calculate the flags via
should_remove_suid() anyway which would raise ATTR_KILL_SGID.
While we're at it we move should_remove_suid() from inode.c to attr.c
where it belongs with the rest of the iattr helpers. Especially since it
returns ATTR_KILL_S{G,U}ID flags. We also rename it to
setattr_should_drop_suidgid() to better reflect that it indicates both
setuid and setgid bit removal and also that it returns attr flags.
Running xfstests with this doesn't report any regressions. We should really
try and use consistent checks.

Evictable pages are divided into multiple generations for each lruvec.
The youngest generation number is stored in lrugen->max_seq for both
anon and file types as they are aged on an equal footing. The oldest
generation numbers are stored in lrugen->min_seq[] separately for anon
and file types as clean file pages can be evicted regardless of swap
constraints. These three variables are monotonically increasing.
Generation numbers are truncated into order_base_2(MAX_NR_GENS+1) bits
in order to fit into the gen counter in folio->flags. Each truncated
generation number is an index to lrugen->lists[]. The sliding window
technique is used to track at least MIN_NR_GENS and at most
MAX_NR_GENS generations. The gen counter stores a value within [1,
MAX_NR_GENS] while a page is on one of lrugen->lists[]. Otherwise it
stores 0.
There are two conceptually independent procedures: "the aging", which
produces young generations, and "the eviction", which consumes old
generations. They form a closed-loop system, i.e., "the page reclaim".
Both procedures can be invoked from userspace for the purposes of working
set estimation and proactive reclaim. These techniques are commonly used
to optimize job scheduling (bin packing) in data centers [1][2].
To avoid confusion, the terms "hot" and "cold" will be applied to the
multi-gen LRU, as a new convention; the terms "active" and "inactive" will
be applied to the active/inactive LRU, as usual.
The protection of hot pages and the selection of cold pages are based
on page access channels and patterns. There are two access channels:
one through page tables and the other through file descriptors. The
protection of the former channel is by design stronger because:
1. The uncertainty in determining the access patterns of the former
channel is higher due to the approximation of the accessed bit.
2. The cost of evicting the former channel is higher due to the TLB
flushes required and the likelihood of encountering the dirty bit.
3. The penalty of underprotecting the former channel is higher because
applications usually do not prepare themselves for major page
faults like they do for blocked I/O. E.g., GUI applications
commonly use dedicated I/O threads to avoid blocking rendering
threads.
There are also two access patterns: one with temporal locality and the
other without. For the reasons listed above, the former channel is
assumed to follow the former pattern unless VM_SEQ_READ or VM_RAND_READ is
present; the latter channel is assumed to follow the latter pattern unless
outlying refaults have been observed [3][4].
The next patch will address the "outlying refaults". Three macros, i.e.,
LRU_REFS_WIDTH, LRU_REFS_PGOFF and LRU_REFS_MASK, used later are added in
this patch to make the entire patchset less diffy.
A page is added to the youngest generation on faulting. The aging needs
to check the accessed bit at least twice before handing this page over to
the eviction. The first check takes care of the accessed bit set on the
initial fault; the second check makes sure this page has not been used
since then. This protocol, AKA second chance, requires a minimum of two
generations, hence MIN_NR_GENS.

Equivalent of single-segment iovec. Initialized by iov_iter_ubuf(),
checked for by iter_is_ubuf(), otherwise behaves like ITER_IOVEC
ones.
We are going to expose the things like ->write_iter() et.al. to those
in subsequent commits.
New predicate (user_backed_iter()) that is true for ITER_IOVEC and
ITER_UBUF; places like direct-IO handling should use that for
checking that pages we modify after getting them from iov_iter_get_pages()
would need to be dirtied.
DO NOT assume that replacing iter_is_iovec() with user_backed_iter()
will solve all problems - there's code that uses iter_is_iovec() to
decide how to poke around in iov_iter guts and for that the predicate
replacement obviously won't suffice.

Force unmount of FUSE severes the connection with the user space, even if
there are still open files. Subsequent remount tries to re-use the
superblock held by the open files, which is meaningless in the FUSE case
after disconnect - reused super block doesn't have userspace counterpart
attached to it and is incapable of doing any IO.
This patch adds the functionality only for the block-device-based supers,
since the primary use case of the feature is to gracefully handle force
unmount of external devices, mounted with FUSE. This can be further
extended to cover all superblocks, if the need arises.

Since commit 73f03c2b4b ("fuse: Restrict allow_other to the superblock's
namespace or a descendant"), access to allow_other FUSE filesystems has
been limited to users in the mounting user namespace or descendants. This
prevents a process that is privileged in its userns - but not its parent
namespaces - from mounting a FUSE fs w/ allow_other that is accessible to
processes in parent namespaces.
While this restriction makes sense overall it breaks a legitimate usecase:
I have a tracing daemon which needs to peek into process' open files in
order to symbolicate - similar to 'perf'. The daemon is a privileged
process in the root userns, but is unable to peek into FUSE filesystems
mounted by processes in child namespaces.
This patch adds a module param, allow_sys_admin_access, to act as an escape
hatch for this descendant userns logic and for the allow_other mount option
in general. Setting allow_sys_admin_access allows processes with
CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the initial userns to access FUSE filesystems irrespective
of the mounting userns or whether allow_other was set. A sysadmin setting
this param must trust FUSEs on the host to not DoS processes as described
in 73f03c2b4b.

Overlayfs may fail to complete updates when a filesystem lacks
fileattr/xattr syscall support and responds with an ENOSYS error code,
resulting in an unexpected "Function not implemented" error.
This bug may occur with FUSE filesystems, such as davfs2.
Steps to reproduce:
# install davfs2, e.g., apk add davfs2
mkdir /test mkdir /test/lower /test/upper /test/work /test/mnt
yes '' | mount -t davfs -o ro http://some-web-dav-server/path \
/test/lower
mount -t overlay -o upperdir=/test/upper,lowerdir=/test/lower \
-o workdir=/test/work overlay /test/mnt
# when "some-file" exists in the lowerdir, this fails with "Function
# not implemented", with dmesg showing "overlayfs: failed to retrieve
# lower fileattr (/some-file, err=-38)"
touch /test/mnt/some-file
The underlying cause of this regresion is actually in FUSE, which fails to
translate the ENOSYS error code returned by userspace filesystem (which
means that the ioctl operation is not supported) to ENOTTY.

fuse_finish_open() will be called with FUSE_NOWRITE set in case of atomic
O_TRUNC open(), so commit 76224355db ("fuse: truncate pagecache on
atomic_o_trunc") replaced invalidate_inode_pages2() by truncate_pagecache()
in such a case to avoid the A-A deadlock. However, we found another A-B-B-A
deadlock related to the case above, which will cause the xfstests
generic/464 testcase hung in our virtio-fs test environment.
For example, consider two processes concurrently open one same file, one
with O_TRUNC and another without O_TRUNC. The deadlock case is described
below, if open(O_TRUNC) is already set_nowrite(acquired A), and is trying
to lock a page (acquiring B), open() could have held the page lock
(acquired B), and waiting on the page writeback (acquiring A). This would
lead to deadlocks.
open(O_TRUNC)
----------------------------------------------------------------
fuse_open_common
inode_lock [C acquire]
fuse_set_nowrite [A acquire]
fuse_finish_open
truncate_pagecache
lock_page [B acquire]
truncate_inode_page
unlock_page [B release]
fuse_release_nowrite [A release]
inode_unlock [C release]
----------------------------------------------------------------
open()
----------------------------------------------------------------
fuse_open_common
fuse_finish_open
invalidate_inode_pages2
lock_page [B acquire]
fuse_launder_page
fuse_wait_on_page_writeback [A acquire & release]
unlock_page [B release]
----------------------------------------------------------------
Besides this case, all calls of invalidate_inode_pages2() and
invalidate_inode_pages2_range() in fuse code also can deadlock with
open(O_TRUNC).
Fix by moving the truncate_pagecache() call outside the nowrite protected
region. The nowrite protection is only for delayed writeback
(writeback_cache) case, where inode lock does not protect against
truncation racing with writes on the server. Write syscalls racing with
page cache truncation still get the inode lock protection.
This patch also changes the order of filemap_invalidate_lock()
vs. fuse_set_nowrite() in fuse_open_common(). This new order matches the
order found in fuse_file_fallocate() and fuse_do_setattr().

A race between write(2) and close(2) allows pages to be dirtied after
fuse_flush -> write_inode_now(). If these pages are not flushed from
fuse_release(), then there might not be a writable open file later. So any
remaining dirty pages must be written back before the file is released.
This is a partial revert of the blamed commit.

Previously it was only possible to clear these errors using a truncate
