[ Upstream commit 1edc8eb2e93130e36ac74ac9c80913815a57d413 ]
When a filesystem is unmounted, we currently call fsnotify_sb_delete()
before evict_inodes(), which means that fsnotify_unmount_inodes()
must iterate over all inodes on the superblock looking for any inodes
with watches. This is inefficient and can lead to livelocks as it
iterates over many unwatched inodes.At this point, SB_ACTIVE is gone and dropping refcount to zero kicks
the inode out out immediately, so anything processed by
fsnotify_sb_delete / fsnotify_unmount_inodes gets evicted in that loop.After that, the call to evict_inodes will evict everything else with a
zero refcount.This should speed things up overall, and avoid livelocks in
fsnotify_unmount_inodes().Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen

[ Upstream commit 04646aebd30b99f2cfa0182435a2ec252fcb16d0 ]
Anything that walks all inodes on sb->s_inodes list without rescheduling
risks softlockups.Previous efforts were made in 2 functions, see:
c27d82f fs/drop_caches.c: avoid softlockups in drop_pagecache_sb()
ac05fbb inode: don't softlockup when evicting inodesbut there hasn't been an audit of all walkers, so do that now. This
also consistently moves the cond_resched() calls to the bottom of each
loop in cases where it already exists.One loop remains: remove_dquot_ref(), because I'm not quite sure how
to deal with that one w/o taking the i_lock.Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen

Pull nfsd updates from Bruce Fields:
"Highlights:- Add a new knfsd file cache, so that we don't have to open and close
on each (NFSv2/v3) READ or WRITE. This can speed up read and write
in some cases. It also replaces our readahead cache.- Prevent silent data loss on write errors, by treating write errors
like server reboots for the purposes of write caching, thus forcing
clients to resend their writes.- Tweak the code that allocates sessions to be more forgiving, so
that NFSv4.1 mounts are less likely to hang when a server already
has a lot of clients.- Eliminate an arbitrary limit on NFSv4 ACL sizes; they should now be
limited only by the backend filesystem and the maximum RPC size.- Allow the server to enforce use of the correct kerberos credentials
when a client reclaims state after a reboot.And some miscellaneous smaller bugfixes and cleanup"

Pull selinux updates from Paul Moore:
- Add LSM hooks, and SELinux access control hooks, for dnotify,
fanotify, and inotify watches. This has been discussed with both the
LSM and fs/notify folks and everybody is good with these new hooks.- The LSM stacking changes missed a few calls to current_security() in
the SELinux code; we fix those and remove current_security() for
good.- Improve our network object labeling cache so that we always return
the object's label, even when under memory pressure. Previously we
would return an error if we couldn't allocate a new cache entry, now
we always return the label even if we can't create a new cache entry

As of now, setting watches on filesystem objects has, at most, applied a
check for read access to the inode, and in the case of fanotify, requires
CAP_SYS_ADMIN. No specific security hook or permission check has been
provided to control the setting of watches. Using any of inotify, dnotify,
or fanotify, it is possible to observe, not only write-like operations, but
even read access to a file. Modeling the watch as being merely a read from
the file is insufficient for the needs of SELinux. This is due to the fact
that read access should not necessarily imply access to information about
when another process reads from a file. Furthermore, fanotify watches grant
more power to an application in the form of permission events. While
notification events are solely, unidirectional (i.e. they only pass
information to the receiving application), permission events are blocking.
Permission events make a request to the receiving application which will
then reply with a decision as to whether or not that action may be
completed. This causes the issue of the watching application having the
ability to exercise control over the triggering process. Without drawing a
distinction within the permission check, the ability to read would imply
the greater ability to control an application. Additionally, mount and
superblock watches apply to all files within the same mount or superblock.
Read access to one file should not necessarily imply the ability to watch
all files accessed within a given mount or superblock.In order to solve these issues, a new LSM hook is implemented and has been
placed within the system calls for marking filesystem objects with inotify,
fanotify, and dnotify watches. These calls to the hook are placed at the
point at which the target path has been resolved and are provided with the
path struct, the mask of requested notification events, and the type of
object on which the mark is being set (inode, superblock, or mount). The
mask and obj_type have already been translated into common FS_* values
shared by the entirety of the fs notification infrastructure. The path
struct is passed rather than just the inode so that the mount is available,
particularly for mount watches. This also allows for use of the hook by
pathname-based security modules. However, since the hook is intended for
use even by inode based security modules, it is not placed under the
CONFIG_SECURITY_PATH conditional. Otherwise, the inode-based security
modules would need to enable all of the path hooks, even though they do not
use any of them.This only provides a hook at the point of setting a watch, and presumes
that permission to set a particular watch implies the ability to receive
all notification about that object which match the mask. This is all that
is required for SELinux. If other security modules require additional hooks
or infrastructure to control delivery of notification, these can be added
by them. It does not make sense for us to propose hooks for which we have
no implementation. The understanding that all notifications received by the
requesting application are all strictly of a type for which the application
has been granted permission shows that this implementation is sufficient in
its coverage.Security modules wishing to provide complete control over fanotify must
also implement a security_file_open hook that validates that the access
requested by the watching application is authorized. Fanotify has the issue
that it returns a file descriptor with the file mode specified during
fanotify_init() to the watching process on event. This is already covered
by the LSM security_file_open hook if the security module implements
checking of the requested file mode there. Otherwise, a watching process
can obtain escalated access to a file for which it has not been authorized.The selinux_path_notify hook implementation works by adding five new file
permissions: watch, watch_mount, watch_sb, watch_reads, and watch_with_perm
(descriptions about which will follow), and one new filesystem permission:
watch (which is applied to superblock checks). The hook then decides which
subset of these permissions must be held by the requesting application
based on the contents of the provided mask and the obj_type. The
selinux_file_open hook already checks the requested file mode and therefore
ensures that a watching process cannot escalate its access through
fanotify.The watch, watch_mount, and watch_sb permissions are the baseline
permissions for setting a watch on an object and each are a requirement for
any watch to be set on a file, mount, or superblock respectively. It should
be noted that having either of the other two permissions (watch_reads and
watch_with_perm) does not imply the watch, watch_mount, or watch_sb
permission. Superblock watches further require the filesystem watch
permission to the superblock. As there is no labeled object in view for
mounts, there is no specific check for mount watches beyond watch_mount to
the inode. Such a check could be added in the future, if a suitable labeled
object existed representing the mount.The watch_reads permission is required to receive notifications from
read-exclusive events on filesystem objects. These events include accessing
a file for the purpose of reading and closing a file which has been opened
read-only. This distinction has been drawn in order to provide a direct
indication in the policy for this otherwise not obvious capability. Read
access to a file should not necessarily imply the ability to observe read
events on a file.Finally, watch_with_perm only applies to fanotify masks since it is the
only way to set a mask which allows for the blocking, permission event.
This permission is needed for any watch which is of this type. Though
fanotify requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN, this is insufficient as it gives implicit
trust to root, which we do not do, and does not support least privilege.Signed-off-by: Aaron Goidel

In the sysctl code the proc_dointvec_minmax() function is often used to
validate the user supplied value between an allowed range. This
function uses the extra1 and extra2 members from struct ctl_table as
minimum and maximum allowed value.On sysctl handler declaration, in every source file there are some
readonly variables containing just an integer which address is assigned
to the extra1 and extra2 members, so the sysctl range is enforced.The special values 0, 1 and INT_MAX are very often used as range
boundary, leading duplication of variables like zero=0, one=1,
int_max=INT_MAX in different source files:$ git grep -E '\.extra[12].*&(zero|one|int_max)' |wc -l

macros to refer more easily to the correct array member, and use them

Commit d46eb14b735b ("fs: fsnotify: account fsnotify metadata to
kmemcg") added remote memcg charging for fanotify and inotify event
objects. The aim was to charge the memory to the listener who is
interested in the events but without triggering the OOM killer.
Otherwise there would be security concerns for the listener.At the time, oom-kill trigger was not in the charging path. A parallel
work added the oom-kill back to charging path i.e. commit 29ef680ae7c2
("memcg, oom: move out_of_memory back to the charge path"). So to not
trigger oom-killer in the remote memcg, explicitly add
__GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL to the fanotigy and inotify event allocations.Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190514212259.156585-2-shakeelb@google.com

Pull pidfd updates from Christian Brauner:
"This patchset makes it possible to retrieve pidfds at process creation
time by introducing the new flag CLONE_PIDFD to the clone() system
call. Linus originally suggested to implement this as a new flag to
clone() instead of making it a separate system call.After a thorough review from Oleg CLONE_PIDFD returns pidfds in the
parent_tidptr argument. This means we can give back the associated pid
and the pidfd at the same time. Access to process metadata information
thus becomes rather trivial.As has been agreed, CLONE_PIDFD creates file descriptors based on
anonymous inodes similar to the new mount api. They are made
unconditional by this patchset as they are now needed by core kernel
code (vfs, pidfd) even more than they already were before (timerfd,
signalfd, io_uring, epoll etc.). The core patchset is rather small.
The bulky looking changelist is caused by David's very simple changes
to Kconfig to make anon inodes unconditional.A pidfd comes with additional information in fdinfo if the kernel
supports procfs. The fdinfo file contains the pid of the process in
the callers pid namespace in the same format as the procfs status
file, i.e. "Pid:\t%d".To remove worries about missing metadata access this patchset comes
with a sample/test program that illustrates how a combination of
CLONE_PIDFD and pidfd_send_signal() can be used to gain race-free
access to process metadata through /proc/.Further work based on this patchset has been done by Joel. His work
makes pidfds pollable. It finished too late for this merge window. I

the same stability of dentry->d_name is also true, but it's a bit
more convoluted - there is one callchain (devpts_pty_new() ->
fsnotify_create() -> fsnotify_dirent()) where the parent is _not_
locked, but on devpts ->d_name of everything is unchanging; it

Making waits for response to fanotify permission events interruptible
can result in EINTR returns from open(2) or other syscalls when there's
e.g. AV software that's monitoring the file. Orion reports that e.g.
bash is complaining like:bash: /etc/bash_completion.d/itweb-settings.bash: Interrupted system call
So for now convert the wait from interruptible to only killable one.
That is mostly invisible to userspace. Sadly this breaks hibernation

thought into how to fix this without regressing userspace visible
behavior.Reported-by: Orion Poplawski

When waiting for response to fanotify permission events, we currently
use uninterruptible waits. That makes code simple however it can cause
lots of processes to end up in uninterruptible sleep with hard reboot
being the only alternative in case fanotify listener process stops
responding (e.g. due to a bug in its implementation). Uninterruptible
sleep also makes system hibernation fail if the listener gets frozen
before the process generating fanotify permission event.Fix these problems by using interruptible sleep for waiting for response
to fanotify event. This is slightly tricky though - we have to
detect when the event got already reported to userspace as in that
case we must not free the event. Instead we push the responsibility for
freeing the event to the process that will write response to the
event.Reported-by: Orion Poplawski

group->notification_lock. This will allow aborting wait for reply to
permission event from userspace.Reviewed-by: Amir Goldstein

get_one_event() has a single caller and that just locks
notification_lock around the call. Move locking inside get_one_event()
as that will make using ->response field for permission event state
easier.Reviewed-by: Amir Goldstein

dirent modification events (create/delete/move) do not carry the
child entry name/inode information. Instead, we report FAN_ONDIR
for mkdir/rmdir so user can differentiate them from creat/unlink.This is consistent with inotify reporting IN_ISDIR with dirent events
and is useful for implementing recursive directory tree watcher.We avoid merging dirent events referring to subdirs with dirent events
referring to non subdirs, otherwise, user won't be able to tell from a
mask FAN_CREATE|FAN_DELETE|FAN_ONDIR if it describes mkdir+unlink pair
or rmdir+create pair of events.For backward compatibility and consistency, do not report FAN_ONDIR
to user in legacy fanotify mode (reporting fd) and report FAN_ONDIR
to user in FAN_REPORT_FID mode for all event types.Cc:

Add support for events with data type FSNOTIFY_EVENT_INODE
(e.g. create/attrib/move/delete) for inode and filesystem mark types.The "inode" events do not carry enough information (i.e. path) to
report event->fd, so we do not allow setting a mask for those events
unless group supports reporting fid.The "inode" events are not supported on a mount mark, because they do
not carry enough information (i.e. path) to be filtered by mount point.The "dirent" events (create/move/delete) report the fid of the parent
directory where events took place without specifying the filename of the
child. In the future, fanotify may get support for reporting filename
information for those events.Cc:

When event data type is FSNOTIFY_EVENT_INODE, we don't have a refernece
to the mount, so we will not be able to open a file descriptor when user
reads the event. However, if the listener has enabled reporting file
identifier with the FAN_REPORT_FID init flag, we allow reporting those
events and we use an identifier inode to encode fid.The inode to use as identifier when reporting fid depends on the event.
For dirent modification events, we report the modified directory inode
and we report the "victim" inode otherwise.
For example:
FS_ATTRIB reports the child inode even if reported on a watched parent.
FS_CREATE reports the modified dir inode and not the created inode.[JK: Fixup condition in fanotify_group_event_mask()]

All fsnotify hooks set the FS_ISDIR flag for events that happen
on directory victim inodes except for fsnotify_perm().Add the missing FS_ISDIR flag in fsnotify_perm() hook and let
fanotify_group_event_mask() check the FS_ISDIR flag instead of
checking if path argument is a directory.This is needed for fanotify support for event types that do not
carry path information.Signed-off-by: Amir Goldstein
