Highlights: - Config guards make it impossible to enable the user namespace and code that has not been converted to be user namespace safe. - Use of the new kuid_t type ensures the if you somehow get past the config guards the kernel will encounter type errors if you enable user namespaces and attempt to compile in code whose permission checks have not been updated to be user namespace safe. - All uids from child user namespaces are mapped into the initial user namespace before they are processed. Removing the need to add an additional check to see if the user namespace of the compared uids remains the same. - With the user namespaces compiled out the performance is as good or better than it is today. - For most operations absolutely nothing changes performance or operationally with the user namespace enabled. - The worst case performance I could come up with was timing 1 billion cache cold stat operations with the user namespace code enabled. This went from 156s to 164s on my laptop (or 156ns to 164ns per stat operation). - (uid_t)-1 and (gid_t)-1 are reserved as an internal error value. Most uid/gid setting system calls treat these value specially anyway so attempting to use -1 as a uid would likely cause entertaining failures in userspace. - If setuid is called with a uid that can not be mapped setuid fails. I have looked at sendmail, login, ssh and every other program I could think of that would call setuid and they all check for and handle the case where setuid fails. - If stat or a similar system call is called from a context in which we can not map a uid we lie and return overflowuid. The LFS experience suggests not lying and returning an error code might be better, but the historical precedent with uids is different and I can not think of anything that would break by lying about a uid we can't map. - Capabilities are localized to the current user namespace making it safe to give the initial user in a user namespace all capabilities. My git tree covers all of the modifications needed to convert the core kernel and enough changes to make a system bootable to runlevel 1."

* | sysfs: get rid of some lockdep false positivesAlan Stern2012-05-141-5/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch (as1554) fixes a lockdep false-positive report. The problem arises because lockdep is unable to deal with the tree-structured locks created by the device core and sysfs. This particular problem involves a sysfs attribute method that unregisters itself, not from the device it was called for, but from a descendant device. Lockdep doesn't understand the distinction and reports a possible deadlock, even though the operation is safe. This is the sort of thing that would normally be handled by using a nested lock annotation; unfortunately it's not feasible to do that here. There's no sensible way to tell sysfs when attribute removal occurs in the context of a parent attribute method. As a workaround, the patch adds a new flag to struct attribute telling sysfs not to inform lockdep when it acquires a readlock on a sysfs_dirent instance for the attribute. The readlock is still acquired, but lockdep doesn't know about it and hence does not complain about impossible deadlock scenarios. Also added are macros for static initialization of attribute structures with the ignore_lockdep flag set. The three offending attributes in the USB subsystem are converted to use the new macros.

It checks sd->s_iattr is NULL or not. Then if it is NULL, it calls sysfs_init_inode_attrs() to allocate memory. That code is this. iattrs = sd->s_iattr; if (!iattrs) iattrs = sysfs_init_inode_attrs(sd); The iattrs recieves sysfs_init_inode_attrs()'s result, but sd->s_iattr doesn't know the address. so it needs to set correct address to sd->s_iattr to free memory in other function. unreferenced object 0xffff880250b73e60 (size 32): comm "systemd", pid 1, jiffies 4294683888 (age 94.553s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 73 79 73 74 65 6d 5f 75 3a 6f 62 6a 65 63 74 5f system_u:object_ 72 3a 73 79 73 66 73 5f 74 3a 73 30 00 00 00 00 r:sysfs_t:s0.... backtrace: [<ffffffff814cb1d0>] kmemleak_alloc+0x73/0x98 [<ffffffff811270ab>] __kmalloc+0x100/0x12c [<ffffffff8120775a>] context_struct_to_string+0x106/0x210 [<ffffffff81207cc1>] security_sid_to_context_core+0x10b/0x129 [<ffffffff812090ef>] security_sid_to_context+0x10/0x12 [<ffffffff811fb0da>] selinux_inode_getsecurity+0x7d/0xa8 [<ffffffff811fb127>] selinux_inode_getsecctx+0x22/0x2e [<ffffffff811f4d62>] security_inode_getsecctx+0x16/0x18 [<ffffffff81191dad>] sysfs_setxattr+0x96/0x117 [<ffffffff811542f0>] __vfs_setxattr_noperm+0x73/0xd9 [<ffffffff811543d9>] vfs_setxattr+0x83/0xa1 [<ffffffff811544c6>] setxattr+0xcf/0x101 [<ffffffff81154745>] sys_lsetxattr+0x6a/0x8f [<ffffffff814efda9>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b [<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff unreferenced object 0xffff88024163c5a0 (size 96): comm "systemd", pid 1, jiffies 4294683888 (age 94.553s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 00 00 00 00 ed 41 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 .....A.......... 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0c 64 42 4f 00 00 00 00 .........dBO.... backtrace: [<ffffffff814cb1d0>] kmemleak_alloc+0x73/0x98 [<ffffffff81127402>] kmem_cache_alloc_trace+0xc4/0xee [<ffffffff81191cbe>] sysfs_init_inode_attrs+0x2a/0x83 [<ffffffff81191dd6>] sysfs_setxattr+0xbf/0x117 [<ffffffff811542f0>] __vfs_setxattr_noperm+0x73/0xd9 [<ffffffff811543d9>] vfs_setxattr+0x83/0xa1 [<ffffffff811544c6>] setxattr+0xcf/0x101 [<ffffffff81154745>] sys_lsetxattr+0x6a/0x8f [<ffffffff814efda9>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b [<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff ` Signed-off-by: Masami Ichikawa <masami256@gmail.com> Cc: stable <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

Recently an OOPS was observed from the usb serial io_ti driver when it tried to remove sysfs directories. Upon investigation it turns out this driver was always buggy and that a recent sysfs change had stopped guarding itself against removing attributes from sysfs directories that had already been removed. :( Historically we have been silent about attempting to files from nonexistent sysfs directories and have politely returned error codes. That has resulted in people writing broken code that ignores the error codes. Issue a kernel WARNING and a stack backtrace to make it clear in no uncertain terms that abusing sysfs is not ok, and the callers need to fix their code.

Because we now only use a single rbtree this reduces the size of sysfs_dirent by 2 pointers. Because we have fewer cases to deal with the code is now simpler. For now I use the simple hash that the dcache uses as that is easy to use and seems simple enough.

* sysfs: Make sysfs_rename safe with sysfs_dirents in rbtrees.Eric W. Biederman2011-11-011-8/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In sysfs_rename we need to remove the optimization of not calling sysfs_unlink_sibling and sysfs_link_sibling if the renamed parent directory is not changing. This optimization is no longer valid now that sysfs dirents are stored in an rbtree sorted by name. Move the assignment of s_ns before the call of sysfs_link_sibling. With no sysfs_dirent fields changing after the call of sysfs_link_sibling this allows sysfs_link_sibling to take any of the directory entries into account when it builds the rbtrees, and s_ns looks like a prime canidate to be used in the rbtree in the future.

* sysfs: Remove support for tagged directories with untagged members (again)Eric W. Biederman2011-10-251-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In commit 8a9ea3237e7e ("Merge git://.../davem/net-next") where my sysfs changes from the net tree merged with the sysfs rbtree changes from Mickulas Patocka the conflict resolution failed to preserve the simplified property that was the point of my changes. That is sysfs_find_dirent can now say something is a match if and only s_name and s_ns match what we are looking for, and sysfs_readdir can simply return all of the directory entries where s_ns matches the directory that we should be returning. Now that we are back to exact matches we can tweak sysfs_find_dirent and the name rb_tree to order sysfs_dirents by s_ns s_name and remove the second loop in sysfs_find_dirent. However that change seems a bit much for a conflict resolution so it can come later. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

| * sysfs: Reject with a warning invalid uses of tagged directories.Eric W. Biederman2011-10-202-3/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sysfs is a core piece of ifrastructure that many people use and few people have all of the rules in their head on how to use it correctly. Add warnings for people using tagged directories improperly to that any misuses can be caught and diagnosed quickly. A single inexpensive test in sysfs_find_dirent is almost sufficient to catch all possible misuses. An additional warning is needed in sysfs_add_dirent so that we actually fail when attempting to add an untagged dirent in a tagged directory. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

| * sysfs: Implement support for tagged files in sysfs.Eric W. Biederman2011-10-201-2/+51
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Looking up files in sysfs is hard to understand and analyize because we currently allow placing untagged files in tagged directories. In the implementation of that we have two subtly different meanings of NULL. NULL meaning there is no tag on a directory entry and NULL meaning we don't care which namespace the lookup is performed for. This multiple uses of NULL have resulted in subtle bugs (since fixed) in the code. Currently it is only the bonding driver that needs to have an untagged file in a tagged directory. To untagle this mess I am adding support for tagged files to sysfs. Modifying the bonding driver to implement bonding_masters as a tagged file. Registering bonding_masters once for each network namespace. Then I am removing support for untagged entries in tagged sysfs directories. Resulting in code that is much easier to reason about.

For struct net in case of CONFIG_NET_NS it bumps the new refcount; net_drop_ns() decrements it and calls net_free() if the last reference has been dropped. Method renamed to ->grab_current_ns(). * old net_free() callers call net_drop_ns() instead. * sysfs_exit_ns() is gone, along with a large part of callchain leading to it; now that the references stored in ->ns[...] stay valid we do not need to hunt them down and replace them with NULL. That fixes problems in sysfs_lookup() and sysfs_readdir(), along with getting rid of sb->s_instances abuse. Note that struct net *shutdown* logics has not changed - net_cleanup() is called exactly when it used to be called. The only thing postponed by having a sysfs instance refering to that struct net is actual freeing of memory occupied by struct net. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On some arches (x86, sh, arm, unicore, powerpc) the oops message would print out the last sysfs file accessed. This was very useful in finding a number of sysfs and driver core bugs in the 2.5 and early 2.6 development days, but it has been a number of years since this file has actually helped in debugging anything that couldn't also be trivially determined from the stack traceback. So it's time to delete the line. This is good as we need all the space we can get for oops messages at times on consoles.

This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes references to the option throughout the kernel. A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc). Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they are making should enable it.
