This is potentially dangerous to rely on, as there are two parts that are mismatched: - user space does not see the kernel's uid_t definition, but has its own, which may be either the 16-bit or the 32-bit type. 32-bit uid_t was introduced with linux-2.3.39 in back in 2000. glibc was already using 32-bit uid_t at the time in user space, but uclibc only changed in 2003, and others may have been even later. - the ioctl command number is defined (incorrectly) as if there was no argument, so if there is any user space that happens to be built with a 16-bit uid_t, this does not get caught.

Note that NS_GET_OWNER_UID is provided on 32-bit architectures, too, so this 16-bit vs 32-bit uid_t issue was exposed to userspace long time ago when NS_GET_OWNER_UID was introduced, and making NS_GET_OWNER_UID available for compat processes won't make any difference, as the mismatch is not between native and compat types, but rather between 16-bit and 32-bit uid_t types. I agree it would be correct to define NS_GET_OWNER_UID as _IOR(NSIO, 0x4, uid_t) instead of _IO(NSIO, 0x4), but nobody Cc'ed me on this topic when NS_GET_OWNER_UID was discussed, and that ship has long sailed. > > This change fixes compat strace --pidns-translation. > > > > Note: when backporting this patch to stable kernels, commit > > "compat_ioctl: add compat_ptr_ioctl()" is needed as well. > > > > Reported-by: Ákos Uzonyi <uzonyi.akos@gmail.com> > > Fixes: 6786741dbf99 ("nsfs: add ioctl to get an owning user namespace for ns file descriptor") > > Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v4.9+ > > Signed-off-by: Dmitry V.

This is a gentle reminder that my patch hasn't been applied, the problem reported by Ákos Uzonyi hasn't been fixed, and the example in ioctl_ns(2) manual page doesn't work when e.g. it's compiled with -m32 on a 64-bit kernel. > "Dmitry V.

diff --git a/fs/nsfs.c b/fs/nsfs.c index 800c1d0eb0d0..a00236bffa2c 100644 --- a/fs/nsfs.c +++ b/fs/nsfs.c @@ -21,6 +21,7 @@ static long ns_ioctl(struct file *filp, unsigned int ioctl, static const struct file_operations ns_file_operations = { .llseek = no_llseek, .unlocked_ioctl = ns_ioctl, + .compat_ioctl = compat_ptr_ioctl, }; static char *ns_dname(struct dentry *dentry, char *buffer, int buflen)
According to Documentation/driver-api/ioctl.rst, in order to support 32-bit user space running on a 64-bit kernel, each subsystem or driver that implements an ioctl callback handler must also implement the corresponding compat_ioctl handler. The compat_ptr_ioctl() helper can be used in place of a custom compat_ioctl file operation for drivers that only take arguments that are pointers to compatible data structures. In case of NS_* ioctls only NS_GET_OWNER_UID accepts an argument, and this argument is a pointer to uid_t type, which is universally defined to __kernel_uid32_t. This change fixes compat strace --pidns-translation. Note: when backporting this patch to stable kernels, commit "compat_ioctl: add compat_ptr_ioctl()" is needed as well.
