Commit Message

Christian Brauner Nov. 15, 2020, 10:36 a.m. UTC
In order to support per-mount idmappings vfsmounts will be marked with user
namespaces. The idmapping associated with that user namespace will be used to
map the ids of vfs objects when they are accessed through that mount.
By default all vfsmounts will be 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 and no performance impact is seen.

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 user to setup idmapped mounts we can allow
already idmapped mounts to be marked with another user namespace. For now, we
will enforce in later patches that once a mount has been idmapped it can't be
remapped. This keeps permission checking and life-cycle management simple
especially since users can always create a new mount with a different idmapping
anyway.

The idea to attach user namespaces to vfsmounts has been floated around in
various forms at Linux Plumbers in ~2018 with the original idea being tracing
back to a discussion during a conference in St. Petersburg between Christoph,
Tycho, and myself.

I think you might want a READ_ONCE() here. Right now it seems ok, since the
mnt_user_ns can't change, but if we ever allow it to change (and I see you have
a idmapped_mounts_wip_v2_allow_to_change_idmapping branch on your public tree
:D), the pattern of,

        user_ns = mnt_user_ns(path->mnt);
        if (mnt_idmapped(path->mnt)) {
                uid = kuid_from_mnt(user_ns, uid);
                gid = kgid_from_mnt(user_ns, gid);
        }

could race.

Actually, isn't a race possible now?

kuid_from_mnt(mnt_user_ns(path->mnt) /* &init_user_ns */);
WRITE_ONCE(mnt->mnt.mnt_user_ns, user_ns);
WRITE_ONCE(m->mnt.mnt_flags, flags);
kgid_from_mnt(mnt_user_ns(path->mnt) /* the right user ns */);

So maybe it should be:

         if (mnt_idmapped(path->mnt)) {
                 barrier();
                 user_ns = mnt_user_ns(path->mnt);
                 uid = kuid_from_mnt(user_ns, uid);
                 gid = kgid_from_mnt(user_ns, gid);
         }

since there's no data dependency between mnt_idmapped() and
mnt_user_ns()?

I think I had something to handle this case in another branch of mine.
The READ_ONCE() you mentioned in another patch I had originally dropped
because I wasn't sure whether it works on pointers but after talking to
Jann and David it seems that it handles pointers fine.
Let me take a look and fix it in the next version. I just finished
porting the test suite to xfstests as Christoph requested and I'm
looking at this now.

Thanks!

Another way would be to just have mnt_idmapped() test
mnt_user_ns() != &init_user_ns instead of the flags; then I think you
get the data dependency and thus correct ordering for free.

I indeed dropped mnt_idmapped() which is unnecessary. :)
I think we should still use smp_store_release() in mnt_user_ns() paired
with smp_load_acquire() in do_idmap_mount() thought.

It still might be a nice helper to prevent people from checking the
flags and forgetting that there's a memory ordering issue, though.

Sounds reasonable.

I just mentioned this offline but for the record: the flag is gone since
we can rely on the pointer alone. :)
