fs: Better permission checking for submounts

2017-03-15T02:20:10Z

commit 93faccbbfa958a9668d3ab4e30f38dd205cee8d8 upstream. To support unprivileged users mounting filesystems two permission checks have to be performed: a test to see if the user allowed to create a mount in the mount namespace, and a test to see if the user is allowed to access the specified filesystem. The automount case is special in that mounting the original filesystem grants permission to mount the sub-filesystems, to any user who happens to stumble across the their mountpoint and satisfies the ordinary filesystem permission checks. Attempting to handle the automount case by using override_creds almost works. It preserves the idea that permission to mount the original filesystem is permission to mount the sub-filesystem. Unfortunately using override_creds messes up the filesystems ordinary permission checks. Solve this by being explicit that a mount is a submount by introducing vfs_submount, and using it where appropriate. vfs_submount uses a new mount internal mount flags MS_SUBMOUNT, to let sget and friends know that a mount is a submount so they can take appropriate action. sget and sget_userns are modified to not perform any permission checks on submounts. follow_automount is modified to stop using override_creds as that has proven problemantic. do_mount is modified to always remove the new MS_SUBMOUNT flag so that we know userspace will never by able to specify it. autofs4 is modified to stop using current_real_cred that was put in there to handle the previous version of submount permission checking. cifs is modified to pass the mountpoint all of the way down to vfs_submount. debugfs is modified to pass the mountpoint all of the way down to trace_automount by adding a new parameter. To make this change easier a new typedef debugfs_automount_t is introduced to capture the type of the debugfs automount function.

fs: Replace current_fs_time() with current_time()

2016-09-28T01:06:22Z

current_fs_time() uses struct super_block* as an argument. As per Linus's suggestion, this is changed to take struct inode* as a parameter instead. This is because the function is primarily meant for vfs inode timestamps. Also the function was renamed as per Arnd's suggestion. Change all calls to current_fs_time() to use the new current_time() function instead. current_fs_time() will be deleted. Signed-off-by: Deepa Dinamani Signed-off-by: Al Viro

libfs: support RENAME_NOREPLACE in simple_rename()

2016-09-27T09:03:57Z

This is trivial to do: - add flags argument to simple_rename() - check if flags doesn't have any other than RENAME_NOREPLACE - assign simple_rename() to .rename2 instead of .rename Filesystems converted: hugetlbfs, ramfs, bpf. Debugfs uses simple_rename() to implement debugfs_rename(), which is for debugfs instances to rename files internally, not for userspace filesystem access. For this case pass zero flags to simple_rename(). Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Cc: Alexei Starovoitov

debugfs: introduce a public file_operations accessor

2016-09-21T10:13:31Z

This patch introduces an accessor which can be used by the users of debugfs (drivers, fs, ...) to get the original file_operations struct. It also removes the REAL_FOPS_DEREF macro in file.c and converts the code to use the public version. Previously, REAL_FOPS_DEREF was only available within the file.c of debugfs. But having a public getter available for debugfs users is important as some drivers (carl9170 and b43) use the pointer of the original file_operations in conjunction with container_of() within their debugfs implementations.

debugfs: remove extra debugfs_create_file_unsafe() declaration

2016-08-31T13:08:10Z

debugfs_create_file_unsafe() is declared twice in exactly the same manner each: once in fs/debugfs/internal.h and once in include/linux/debugfs.h All files that include the former also include the latter and thus, the declaration in fs/debugfs/internal.h is superfluous. Remove it. Signed-off-by: Nicolai Stange Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

debugfs: open_proxy_open(): avoid double fops release

2016-06-15T11:56:35Z

Debugfs' open_proxy_open(), the ->open() installed at all inodes created through debugfs_create_file_unsafe(), - grabs a reference to the original file_operations instance passed to debugfs_create_file_unsafe() via fops_get(), - installs it at the file's ->f_op by means of replace_fops() - and calls fops_put() on it. Since the semantics of replace_fops() are such that the reference's ownership is transferred, the subsequent fops_put() will result in a double release when the file is eventually closed. Currently, this is not an issue since fops_put() basically does a module_put() on the file_operations' ->owner only and there don't exist any modules calling debugfs_create_file_unsafe() yet. This is expected to change in the future though, c.f. commit c64688081490 ("debugfs: add support for self-protecting attribute file fops"). Remove the call to fops_put() from open_proxy_open().
