  • CURRENT_TIME_SEC is not y2038 safe. current_time() will
    be transitioned to use 64 bit time along with vfs in a
    separate patch.
    There is no plan to transistion CURRENT_TIME_SEC to use
    y2038 safe time interfaces.

    current_time() will also be extended to use superblock
    range checking parameters when range checking is introduced.

    This works because alloc_super() fills in the the s_time_gran
    in super block to NSEC_PER_SEC.

  • We always mixed in the parent pointer into the dentry name hash, but we
    did it late at lookup time. It turns out that we can simplify that
    lookup-time action by salting the hash with the parent pointer early
    instead of late.

    A few other users of our string hashes also wanted to mix in their own
    pointers into the hash, and those are updated to use the same mechanism.

    Hash users that don't have any particular initial salt can just use the
    NULL pointer as a no-salt.

  • a) don't bother with ->d_time for positives - we only check it for
    negatives anyway.

    b) make sure to set it at unlink and rmdir time - at *that* point
    soon-to-be negative dentry matches then-current directory contents

    c) don't go into renaming of old alias in vfat_lookup() unless it
    has the same parent (which it will, unless we are seeing corrupted
    image)

  • Instances either don't look at it at all (the majority of cases) or
    only want it to find the superblock (which can be had as dentry->d_sb).
    A few cases that want more are actually safe with dentry->d_inode -
    the only precaution needed is the check that it hadn't been replaced with
    NULL by rmdir() or by overwriting rename(), which case should be simply
    treated as cache miss.

  • Modify the request_module to prefix the file system type with "fs-"
    and add aliases to all of the filesystems that can be built as modules
    to match.

    A common practice is to build all of the kernel code and leave code
    that is not commonly needed as modules, with the result that many
    users are exposed to any bug anywhere in the kernel.

    Looking for filesystems with a fs- prefix limits the pool of possible
    modules that can be loaded by mount to just filesystems trivially
    making things safer with no real cost.

    Using aliases means user space can control the policy of which
    filesystem modules are auto-loaded by editing /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf
    with blacklist and alias directives. Allowing simple, safe,
    well understood work-arounds to known problematic software.

    This also addresses a rare but unfortunate problem where the filesystem
    name is not the same as it's module name and module auto-loading
    would not work. While writing this patch I saw a handful of such
    cases. The most significant being autofs that lives in the module
    autofs4.

    This is relevant to user namespaces because we can reach the request
    module in get_fs_type() without having any special permissions, and
    people get uncomfortable when a user specified string (in this case
    the filesystem type) goes all of the way to request_module.

    After having looked at this issue I don't think there is any
    particular reason to perform any filtering or permission checks beyond
    making it clear in the module request that we want a filesystem
    module. The common pattern in the kernel is to call request_module()
    without regards to the users permissions. In general all a filesystem
    module does once loaded is call register_filesystem() and go to sleep.
    Which means there is not much attack surface exposed by loading a
    filesytem module unless the filesystem is mounted. In a user
    namespace filesystems are not mounted unless .fs_flags = FS_USERNS_MOUNT,
    which most filesystems do not set today.

  • Maintain an index of directory inodes by starting cluster, so that
    fat_get_parent() can return the proper cached inode rather than inventing
    one that cannot be traced back to the filesystem root.

    Add a new msdos/vfat binary mount option "nfs" so that FAT filesystems
    that are _not_ exported via NFS are not saddled with maintenance of an
    index they will never use.

    Finally, simplify NFS file handle generation and lookups. An
    ext2-congruent implementation is adequate for FAT needs.

  • The utf8s_to_utf16s conversion routine needs to be improved. Unlike
    its utf16s_to_utf8s sibling, it doesn't accept arguments specifying
    the maximum length of the output buffer or the endianness of its
    16-bit output.

    This patch (as1501) adds the two missing arguments, and adjusts the
    only two places in the kernel where the function is called. A
    follow-on patch will add a third caller that does utilize the new
    capabilities.

    The two conversion routines are still annoyingly inconsistent in the
    way they handle invalid byte combinations. But that's a subject for a
    different patch.
