Revert "Merge tag 'keys-acl-20190703' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs"

2019-07-11T01:43:43Z

This reverts merge 0f75ef6a9cff49ff612f7ce0578bced9d0b38325 (and thus effectively commits 7a1ade847596 ("keys: Provide KEYCTL_GRANT_PERMISSION") 2e12256b9a76 ("keys: Replace uid/gid/perm permissions checking with an ACL") that the merge brought in). It turns out that it breaks booting with an encrypted volume, and Eric biggers reports that it also breaks the fscrypt tests [1] and loading of in-kernel X.509 certificates [2]. The root cause of all the breakage is likely the same, but David Howells is off email so rather than try to work it out it's getting reverted in order to not impact the rest of the merge window.

keys: Replace uid/gid/perm permissions checking with an ACL

2019-06-27T22:03:07Z

Replace the uid/gid/perm permissions checking on a key with an ACL to allow the SETATTR and SEARCH permissions to be split. This will also allow a greater range of subjects to represented. ============ WHY DO THIS? ============ The problem is that SETATTR and SEARCH cover a slew of actions, not all of which should be grouped together. For SETATTR, this includes actions that are about controlling access to a key: (1) Changing a key's ownership. (2) Changing a key's security information. (3) Setting a keyring's restriction. And actions that are about managing a key's lifetime: (4) Setting an expiry time. (5) Revoking a key. and (proposed) managing a key as part of a cache: (6) Invalidating a key. Managing a key's lifetime doesn't really have anything to do with controlling access to that key. Expiry time is awkward since it's more about the lifetime of the content and so, in some ways goes better with WRITE permission. It can, however, be set unconditionally by a process with an appropriate authorisation token for instantiating a key, and can also be set by the key type driver when a key is instantiated, so lumping it with the access-controlling actions is probably okay. As for SEARCH permission, that currently covers: (1) Finding keys in a keyring tree during a search. (2) Permitting keyrings to be joined. (3) Invalidation. But these don't really belong together either, since these actions really need to be controlled separately. Finally, there are number of special cases to do with granting the administrator special rights to invalidate or clear keys that I would like to handle with the ACL rather than key flags and special checks. =============== WHAT IS CHANGED =============== The SETATTR permission is split to create two new permissions: (1) SET_SECURITY - which allows the key's owner, group and ACL to be changed and a restriction to be placed on a keyring. (2) REVOKE - which allows a key to be revoked. The SEARCH permission is split to create: (1) SEARCH - which allows a keyring to be search and a key to be found. (2) JOIN - which allows a keyring to be joined as a session keyring. (3) INVAL - which allows a key to be invalidated. The WRITE permission is also split to create: (1) WRITE - which allows a key's content to be altered and links to be added, removed and replaced in a keyring. (2) CLEAR - which allows a keyring to be cleared completely. This is split out to make it possible to give just this to an administrator. (3) REVOKE - see above. Keys acquire ACLs which consist of a series of ACEs, and all that apply are unioned together. An ACE specifies a subject, such as: (*) Possessor - permitted to anyone who 'possesses' a key (*) Owner - permitted to the key owner (*) Group - permitted to the key group (*) Everyone - permitted to everyone Note that 'Other' has been replaced with 'Everyone' on the assumption that you wouldn't grant a permit to 'Other' that you wouldn't also grant to everyone else. Further subjects may be made available by later patches. The ACE also specifies a permissions mask. The set of permissions is now: VIEW Can view the key metadata READ Can read the key content WRITE Can update/modify the key content SEARCH Can find the key by searching/requesting LINK Can make a link to the key SET_SECURITY Can change owner, ACL, expiry INVAL Can invalidate REVOKE Can revoke JOIN Can join this keyring CLEAR Can clear this keyring The KEYCTL_SETPERM function is then deprecated. The KEYCTL_SET_TIMEOUT function then is permitted if SET_SECURITY is set, or if the caller has a valid instantiation auth token. The KEYCTL_INVALIDATE function then requires INVAL. The KEYCTL_REVOKE function then requires REVOKE. The KEYCTL_JOIN_SESSION_KEYRING function then requires JOIN to join an existing keyring. The JOIN permission is enabled by default for session keyrings and manually created keyrings only. ====================== BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY ====================== To maintain backward compatibility, KEYCTL_SETPERM will translate the permissions mask it is given into a new ACL for a key - unless KEYCTL_SET_ACL has been called on that key, in which case an error will be returned. It will convert possessor, owner, group and other permissions into separate ACEs, if each portion of the mask is non-zero. SETATTR permission turns on all of INVAL, REVOKE and SET_SECURITY. WRITE permission turns on WRITE, REVOKE and, if a keyring, CLEAR. JOIN is turned on if a keyring is being altered. The KEYCTL_DESCRIBE function translates the ACL back into a permissions mask to return depending on possessor, owner, group and everyone ACEs. It will make the following mappings: (1) INVAL, JOIN -> SEARCH (2) SET_SECURITY -> SETATTR (3) REVOKE -> WRITE if SETATTR isn't already set (4) CLEAR -> WRITE Note that the value subsequently returned by KEYCTL_DESCRIBE may not match the value set with KEYCTL_SETATTR. ======= TESTING ======= This passes the keyutils testsuite for all but a couple of tests: (1) tests/keyctl/dh_compute/badargs: The first wrong-key-type test now returns EOPNOTSUPP rather than ENOKEY as READ permission isn't removed if the type doesn't have ->read(). You still can't actually read the key. (2) tests/keyctl/permitting/valid: The view-other-permissions test doesn't work as Other has been replaced with Everyone in the ACL.

dns_resolver: Allow used keys to be invalidated

2019-05-15T16:35:54Z

Allow used DNS resolver keys to be invalidated after use if the caller is doing its own caching of the results. This reduces the amount of resources required. Fix AFS to invalidate DNS results to kill off permanent failure records that get lodged in the resolver keyring and prevent future lookups from happening.

dns: Allow the dns resolver to retrieve a server set

2018-10-04T16:40:52Z

Allow the DNS resolver to retrieve a set of servers and their associated addresses, ports, preference and weight ratings. In terms of communication with userspace, "srv=1" is added to the callout string (the '1' indicating the maximum data version supported by the kernel) to ask the userspace side for this. If the userspace side doesn't recognise it, it will ignore the option and return the usual text address list. If the userspace side does recognise it, it will return some binary data that begins with a zero byte that would cause the string parsers to give an error. The second byte contains the version of the data in the blob (this may be between 1 and the version specified in the callout data). The remainder of the payload is version-specific. In version 1, the payload looks like (note that this is packed): u8 Non-string marker (ie. 0) u8 Content (0 => Server list) u8 Version (ie. 1) u8 Source (eg. DNS_RECORD_FROM_DNS_SRV) u8 Status (eg. DNS_LOOKUP_GOOD) u8 Number of servers foreach-server { u16 Name length (LE) u16 Priority (as per SRV record) (LE) u16 Weight (as per SRV record) (LE) u16 Port (LE) u8 Source (eg. DNS_RECORD_FROM_NSS) u8 Status (eg. DNS_LOOKUP_GOT_NOT_FOUND) u8 Protocol (eg. DNS_SERVER_PROTOCOL_UDP) u8 Number of addresses char[] Name (not NUL-terminated) foreach-address { u8 Family (AF_INET{,6}) union { u8[4] ipv4_addr u8[16] ipv6_addr } } } This can then be used to fetch a whole cell's VL-server configuration for AFS, for example.

afs: Support the AFS dynamic root

2018-02-06T14:43:37Z

Support the AFS dynamic root which is a pseudo-volume that doesn't connect to any server resource, but rather is just a root directory that dynamically creates mountpoint directories where the name of such a directory is the name of the cell. Such a mount can be created thus: mount -t afs none /afs -o dyn Dynamic root superblocks aren't shared except by bind mounts and propagation. Cell root volumes can then be mounted by referring to them by name, e.g.: ls /afs/grand.central.org/ ls /afs/.grand.central.org/ The kernel will upcall to consult the DNS if the address wasn't supplied directly.

Merge branch 'WIP.sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

2017-03-03T18:16:38Z

Pull sched.h split-up from Ingo Molnar: "The point of these changes is to significantly reduce the header footprint, to speed up the kernel build and to have a cleaner header structure. After these changes the new 's typical preprocessed size goes down from a previous ~0.68 MB (~22K lines) to ~0.45 MB (~15K lines), which is around 40% faster to build on typical configs. Not much changed from the last version (-v2) posted three weeks ago: I eliminated quirks, backmerged fixes plus I rebased it to an upstream SHA1 from yesterday that includes most changes queued up in -next plus all sched.h changes that were pending from Andrew. I've re-tested the series both on x86 and on cross-arch defconfigs, and did a bisectability test at a number of random points. I tried to test as many build configurations as possible, but some build breakage is probably still left - but it should be mostly limited to architectures that have no cross-compiler binaries available on kernel.org, and non-default configurations" * 'WIP.sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (146 commits) sched/headers: Clean up sched/headers: Remove #ifdefs from sched/headers: Remove the include from sched/headers, hrtimer: Remove the include from sched/headers, x86/apic: Remove the header inclusion from sched/headers, timers: Remove the include from sched/headers: Remove from sched/headers: Remove from sched/core: Remove unused prefetch_stack() sched/headers: Remove from sched/headers: Remove the 'init_pid_ns' prototype from sched/headers: Remove from sched/headers: Remove from sched/headers: Remove the runqueue_is_locked() prototype sched/headers: Remove from sched/headers: Remove from sched/headers: Remove from sched/headers: Remove from sched/headers: Remove the include from sched/headers: Remove from ...
