* Implement file posix capabilitiesSerge E. Hallyn2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement file posix capabilities. This allows programs to be given a subset of root's powers regardless of who runs them, without having to use setuid and giving the binary all of root's powers. This version works with Kaigai Kohei's userspace tools, found at http://www.kaigai.gr.jp/index.php. For more information on how to use this patch, Chris Friedhoff has posted a nice page at http://www.friedhoff.org/fscaps.html. Changelog: Nov 27: Incorporate fixes from Andrew Morton (security-introduce-file-caps-tweaks and security-introduce-file-caps-warning-fix) Fix Kconfig dependency. Fix change signaling behavior when file caps are not compiled in. Nov 13: Integrate comments from Alexey: Remove CONFIG_ ifdef from capability.h, and use %zd for printing a size_t. Nov 13: Fix endianness warnings by sparse as suggested by Alexey Dobriyan. Nov 09: Address warnings of unused variables at cap_bprm_set_security when file capabilities are disabled, and simultaneously clean up the code a little, by pulling the new code into a helper function. Nov 08: For pointers to required userspace tools and how to use them, see http://www.friedhoff.org/fscaps.html. Nov 07: Fix the calculation of the highest bit checked in check_cap_sanity(). Nov 07: Allow file caps to be enabled without CONFIG_SECURITY, since capabilities are the default. Hook cap_task_setscheduler when !CONFIG_SECURITY. Move capable(TASK_KILL) to end of cap_task_kill to reduce audit messages. Nov 05: Add secondary calls in selinux/hooks.c to task_setioprio and task_setscheduler so that selinux and capabilities with file cap support can be stacked. Sep 05: As Seth Arnold points out, uid checks are out of place for capability code. Sep 01: Define task_setscheduler, task_setioprio, cap_task_kill, and task_setnice to make sure a user cannot affect a process in which they called a program with some fscaps. One remaining question is the note under task_setscheduler: are we ok with CAP_SYS_NICE being sufficient to confine a process to a cpuset? It is a semantic change, as without fsccaps, attach_task doesn't allow CAP_SYS_NICE to override the uid equivalence check. But since it uses security_task_setscheduler, which elsewhere is used where CAP_SYS_NICE can be used to override the uid equivalence check, fixing it might be tough. task_setscheduler note: this also controls cpuset:attach_task. Are we ok with CAP_SYS_NICE being used to confine to a cpuset? task_setioprio task_setnice sys_setpriority uses this (through set_one_prio) for another process. Need same checks as setrlimit Aug 21: Updated secureexec implementation to reflect the fact that euid and uid might be the same and nonzero, but the process might still have elevated caps. Aug 15: Handle endianness of xattrs. Enforce capability version match between kernel and disk. Enforce that no bits beyond the known max capability are set, else return -EPERM. With this extra processing, it may be worth reconsidering doing all the work at bprm_set_security rather than d_instantiate. Aug 10: Always call getxattr at bprm_set_security, rather than caching it at d_instantiate.

* r/o bind mounts: create cleanup helper svc_msnfs()Dave Hansen2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | I'm going to be modifying nfsd_rename() shortly to support read-only bind mounts. This #ifdef is around the area I'm patching, and it starts to get really ugly if I just try to add my new code by itself. Using this little helper makes things a lot cleaner to use.

| | | | | | | | | | | First of all, this makes the structure jumping look a little bit cleaner. So, this stands alone as a tiny cleanup.

* r/o bind mounts: rearrange may_open() to be r/o friendlyDave Hansen2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | may_open() calls vfs_permission() before it does checks for IS_RDONLY(inode). It checks _again_ inside of vfs_permission(). The check inside of vfs_permission() is going away eventually. With the mnt_want/drop_write() functions, all of the r/o checks (except for this one) are consistently done before calling permission(). Because of this, I'd like to use permission() to hold a debugging check to make sure that the mnt_want/drop_write() calls are actually being made. So, to do this: 1. remove the IS_RDONLY() check from permission() 2. enforce that you must mnt_want_write() before even calling permission() 3. actually add the debugging check to permission() We need to rearrange may_open() to do r/o checks before calling permission(). Here's the patch.

* r/o bind mounts: filesystem helpers for custom 'struct file'sDave Hansen2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Why do we need r/o bind mounts? This feature allows a read-only view into a read-write filesystem. In the process of doing that, it also provides infrastructure for keeping track of the number of writers to any given mount. This has a number of uses. It allows chroots to have parts of filesystems writable. It will be useful for containers in the future because users may have root inside a container, but should not be allowed to write to somefilesystems. This also replaces patches that vserver has had out of the tree for several years. It allows security enhancement by making sure that parts of your filesystem read-only (such as when you don't trust your FTP server), when you don't want to have entire new filesystems mounted, or when you want atime selectively updated. I've been using the following script to test that the feature is working as desired. It takes a directory and makes a regular bind and a r/o bind mount of it. It then performs some normal filesystem operations on the three directories, including ones that are expected to fail, like creating a file on the r/o mount. This patch: Some filesystems forego the vfs and may_open() and create their own 'struct file's. This patch creates a couple of helper functions which can be used by these filesystems, and will provide a unified place which the r/o bind mount code may patch. Also, rename an existing, static-scope init_file() to a less generic name.

* fuse: fix permission checking on sticky directoriesMiklos Szeredi2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The VFS checks sticky bits on the parent directory even if the filesystem defines it's own ->permission(). In some situations (sshfs, mountlo, etc) the user does have permission to delete a file even if the attribute based checking would not allow it. So work around this by storing the permission bits separately and returning them in stat(), but cutting the permission bits off from inode->i_mode. This is slightly hackish, but it's probably not worth it to add new infrastructure in VFS and a slight performance penalty for all filesystems, just for the sake of fuse.

This is wrong, and becomes more wrong as dirty pages are introduced. So instead properly invalidate all pages with invalidate_inode_pages2().

* writeback: introduce writeback_control.more_io to indicate more ioFengguang Wu2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After making dirty a 100M file, the normal behavior is to start the writeback for all data after 30s delays. But sometimes the following happens instead: - after 30s: ~4M - after 5s: ~4M - after 5s: all remaining 92M Some analyze shows that the internal io dispatch queues goes like this: s_io s_more_io ------------------------- 1) 100M,1K 0 2) 1K 96M 3) 0 96M 1) initial state with a 100M file and a 1K file 2) 4M written, nr_to_write <= 0, so write more 3) 1K written, nr_to_write > 0, no more writes(BUG) nr_to_write > 0 in (3) fools the upper layer to think that data have all been written out. The big dirty file is actually still sitting in s_more_io. We cannot simply splice s_more_io back to s_io as soon as s_io becomes empty, and let the loop in generic_sync_sb_inodes() continue: this may starve newly expired inodes in s_dirty. It is also not an option to draw inodes from both s_more_io and s_dirty, an let the loop go on: this might lead to live locks, and might also starve other superblocks in sync time(well kupdate may still starve some superblocks, that's another bug). We have to return when a full scan of s_io completes. So nr_to_write > 0 does not necessarily mean that "all data are written". This patch introduces a flag writeback_control.more_io to indicate this situation. With it the big dirty file no longer has to wait for the next kupdate invocation 5s later.

So basicly no page io is issued by __block_write_full_page(), hence pages_skipped goes up. Also the comment in generic_sync_sb_inodes(): 544 /* 545 * writeback is not making progress due to locked 546 * buffers. Skip this inode for now. 547 */ and the comment in __block_write_full_page(): 1713 /* 1714 * The page was marked dirty, but the buffers were 1715 * clean. Someone wrote them back by hand with 1716 * ll_rw_block/submit_bh. A rare case. 1717 */ do not quite agree with each other. The page writeback should be skipped for 'locked buffer', but here it is 'clean buffer'! This patch fixes this bug. Though I'm not sure why __block_write_full_page() is called only to do nothing and who actually issued the writeback for us. This is the two possible new behaviors after the patch: 1) pretty nice: wait 30s and write ALL:) 2) not so good: - during the dd: ~16M - after 30s: ~4M - after 5s: ~4M - after 5s: ~176M The next patch will fix case (2).

The new scheme is: - s_dirty acts as a time ordered io delaying queue; - s_io/s_more_io together acts as an io dispatching queue. On kupdate writeback, we pull some inodes from s_dirty to s_io at the start of every full scan of s_io. Otherwise (i.e. for sync/throttle/background writeback), we always pull from s_dirty on each run (a partial scan). Note that the line list_splice_init(&sb->s_more_io, &sb->s_io); is moved to queue_io() to leave s_io empty. Otherwise a big dirtied file will sit in s_io for a long time, preventing new expired inodes to get in.

* writeback: fix periodic superblock dirty inode flushingKen Chen2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current -mm tree has bucketful of bug fixes in periodic writeback path. However, we still hit a glitch where dirty pages on a given inode aren't completely flushed to the disk, and system will accumulate large amount of dirty pages beyond what dirty_expire_interval is designed for. The problem is __sync_single_inode() will move an inode to sb->s_dirty list even when there are more pending dirty pages on that inode. If there is another inode with a small number of dirty pages, we hit a case where the loop iteration in wb_kupdate() terminates prematurely because wbc.nr_to_write > 0. Thus leaving the inode that has large amount of dirty pages behind and it has to wait for another dirty_writeback_interval before we flush it again. We effectively only write out MAX_WRITEBACK_PAGES every dirty_writeback_interval. If the rate of dirtying is sufficiently high, the system will start accumulate a large number of dirty pages. So fix it by having another sb->s_more_io list on which to park the inode while we iterate through sb->s_io and to allow each dirty inode which resides on that sb to have an equal chance of flushing some amount of dirty pages.

* writeback: fix time ordering of the per superblock dirty inode lists 7Andrew Morton2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This one fixes four bugs. There are a few situation in there where writeback decides it is going to skip over a blockdev inode on the kernel-internal blockdev superblock. It presently does this by moving the blockdev inode onto the tail of the blockdev superblock's s_dirty. But a) this screws up s_dirty's reverse-time-orderedness and b) refiling the blockdev for writeback in another 30 second is rude. We should try again sooner than that. Fix all this up by using redirty_head(): move the blockdev inode onto the head of the blockdev superblock's s_dirty list for prompt writeback.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recycling the previous changelog: When the writeback function is operating in writeback-for-flushing mode (as opposed to writeback-for-integrity) and it encounters an I_LOCKed inode, it will skip writing that inode. This is done for throughput and latency: move on to another inode rather than blocking for this one. Writeback skips this inode by moving it off s_io and onto s_dirty, so that writeback can proceed with the other inodes on s_io. However that inode movement can corrupt s_dirty's reverse-time-orderedness. Fix that by using the new redirty_tail(), which will update the refiled inode's dirtied_when field. Note: the behaviour in here is a bit rude: if kupdate happens to come across a locked inode then it will defer writeback of that inode for another 30 seconds. We'll address that in the next patch. Address that here. What we do is to move the skipped inode to the _head_ of s_dirty, immediately eligible for writeout again. Instead of deferring that writeout for another 30 seconds. One would think that this might cause a livelock: we keep on trying to write the same locked inode. But it won't because: a) if that was the case, it would _already_ be happening on the balance_dirty_pages codepath. Because balance_dirty_pages() doesn't care about inode timestamps. b) if we skipped this inode then we won't have done any writeback. The higher-level writeback paths will see that wbc.nr_to_write didn't change and they'll then back off and take a nap.

* writeback: fix time ordering of the per superblock dirty inode lists 4Andrew Morton2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the kupdate function has tried to write back an expired inode it will then check to see whether some of the inode's pages are still dirty. This can happen when the filesystem decided to not write a page for some reason. But it does _not_ occur due to redirtyings: a redirtying will set I_DIRTY_PAGES. What we need to do here is to set I_DIRTY_PAGES to reflect reality and to then put the inode onto the _head_ of s_dirty for consideration on the next kupdate pass, in five seconds time. Problem is, the code failed to modify the inode's timestamp when pushing the inode onto thehead of s_dirty. The patch: If there are no other inodes on s_dirty then we leave the inode's timestamp alone: it is already expired. If there _are_ other inodes on s_dirty then we arrange for this inode to get the same timestamp as the inode which is at the head of s_dirty, thus preserving the s_dirty ordering. But we only need to do this if this inode purports to have been dirtied before the one at head-of-list.

* writeback: fix time ordering of the per superblock dirty inode lists 3Andrew Morton2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While writeback is working against a dirty inode it does a check after trying to write some of the inode's pages: "did the lower layers skip some of the inode's dirty pages because they were locked (or under writeback, or whatever)" If this turns out to be true, we must move the inode back onto s_dirty and redirty it. The reason for doing this is that fsync() and friends only check the s_dirty list, and those functions want to know about those pages which were locked, so they can be waited upon and, if necessary, rewritten. Problem is, that redirtying was putting the inode onto the tail of s_dirty without updating its timestamp. This causes a violation of s_dirty ordering. Fix this by updating inode->dirtied_when when moving the inode onto s_dirty. But the code is still a bit buggy? If the inode was _already_ dirty then we don't need to move it at all. Oh well, hopefully it doesn't matter too much, as that was a redirtying, which was very recent anwyay.

* writeback: fix time ordering of the per superblock dirty inode lists: ↵Andrew Morton2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | memory-backed inodes For reasons which escape me, inodes which are dirty against a ram-backed filesystem are managed in the same way as inodes which are backed by real devices. Probably we could optimise things here. But given that we skip the entire supeblock as son as we hit the first dirty inode, there's not a lot to be gained. And the code does need to handle one particular non-backed superblock: the kernel's fake internal superblock which holds all the blockdevs. Still. At present when the code encounters an inode which is dirty against a memory-backed filesystem it will skip that inode by refiling it back onto s_dirty. But it fails to update the inode's timestamp when doing so which at least makes the debugging code upset. Fix.

* writeback: fix time-ordering of the per-superblock dirty-inode listsAndrew Morton2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When writeback has finished writing back an inode it looks to see if that inode is still dirty. If it is, that means that a process redirtied the inode while its writeback was in progress. What we need to do here is to refile the redirtied inode onto the s_dirty list. But we're doing that wrongly: it could be that this inode was redirtied _before_ the last inode on s_dirty. We're blindly appending this inode to the list, after an inode which might be less-recently-dirtied, thus violating the list's ordering. So we must either insertion-sort this inode into the correct place, or we must update this inode's dirtied_when field when appending it to the reverse-sorted s_dirty list, to preserve the reverse-time-ordering. This patch does the latter: if this inode was dirtied less recently than the tail inode then copy the tail inode's timestamp into this inode. This means that in rare circumstances, some inodes will be writen back later than they should have been. But the time slip will be small.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When resizing online, setup_new_group_blocks attempts to reserve a potentially very large transaction, depending on the current filesystem geometry. For some journal sizes, there may not be enough room for this transaction, and the online resize will fail. The patch below resizes & restarts the transaction as necessary while setting up the new group, and should work with even the smallest journal. Tested with something like: [root@newbox ~]# dd if=/dev/zero of=fsfile bs=1024 count=32768 [root@newbox ~]# mkfs.ext3 -b 1024 fsfile 16384 [root@newbox ~]# mount -o loop fsfile mnt/ [root@newbox ~]# resize2fs /dev/loop0 resize2fs 1.40.2 (12-Jul-2007) Filesystem at /dev/loop0 is mounted on /root/mnt; on-line resizing required old desc_blocks = 1, new_desc_blocks = 1 Performing an on-line resize of /dev/loop0 to 32768 (1k) blocks. resize2fs: No space left on device While trying to add group #2 [root@newbox ~]# dmesg | tail -n 1 JBD: resize2fs wants too many credits (258 > 256) [root@newbox ~]# With the below change, it works.

* Break ELF_PLATFORM and stack pointer randomization dependencyFranck Bui-Huu2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently arch_align_stack() is used by fs/binfmt_elf.c to randomize stack pointer inside a page. But this happens only if ELF_PLATFORM symbol is defined. ELF_PLATFORM is normally set if the architecture wants ld.so to load implementation specific libraries for optimization. And currently a lot of architectures just yield this symbol to NULL. This is the case for MIPS architecture where ELF_PLATFORM is NULL but arch_align_stack() has been redefined to do stack inside page randomization. So in this case no randomization is actually done. This patch breaks this dependency which seems to be useless and allows platforms such MIPS to do the randomization.
