2015-08-21vfs: Test for and handle paths that are unreachable from their mnt_rootEric W. Biederman1-2/+25
In rare cases a directory can be renamed out from under a bind mount. In those cases without special handling it becomes possible to walk up the directory tree to the root dentry of the filesystem and down from the root dentry to every other file or directory on the filesystem. Like division by zero .. from an unconnected path can not be given a useful semantic as there is no predicting at which path component the code will realize it is unconnected. We certainly can not match the current behavior as the current behavior is a security hole. Therefore when encounting .. when following an unconnected path return -ENOENT. - Add a function path_connected to verify path->dentry is reachable from path->mnt.mnt_root. AKA to validate that rename did not do something nasty to the bind mount. To avoid races path_connected must be called after following a path component to it's next path component.

2015-08-04may_follow_link() should use nd->inodeAl Viro1-1/+1
Now that we can get there in RCU mode, we shouldn't play with nd->path.dentry->d_inode - it's not guaranteed to be stable. Use nd->inode instead. Reported-by: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2015-08-01link_path_walk(): be careful when failing with ENOTDIRAl Viro1-1/+6
In RCU mode we might end up with dentry evicted just we check that it's a directory. In such case we should return ECHILD rather than ENOTDIR, so that pathwalk would be retries in non-RCU mode. Breakage had been introduced in commit b18825a - prior to that we were looking at nd->inode, which had been fetched before verifying that ->d_seq was still valid. That form of check would only be satisfied if at some point the pathname prefix would indeed have resolved to a non-directory. The fix consists of checking ->d_seq after we'd run into a non-directory dentry, and failing with ECHILD in case of mismatch. Note that all branches since 3.12 have that problem...

2015-06-29namei: make set_root_rcu() return voidAl Viro1-3/+3
The only caller that cares about its return value can just as easily pick it from nd->root_seq itself. We used to just calculate it and return to caller, but these days we are storing it in nd->root_seq in all cases. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2015-05-15namei: be careful with mountpoint crossings in follow_dotdot_rcu()Al Viro1-30/+21
Otherwise we are risking a hard error where nonlazy restart would be the right thing to do; it's a very narrow race with mount --move and most of the time it ends up being completely harmless, but it's possible to construct a case when we'll get a bogus hard error instead of falling back to non-lazy walk... For one thing, when crossing _into_ overmount of parent we need to check for mount_lock bumps when we get NULL from __lookup_mnt() as well. For another, and less exotically, we need to make sure that the data fetched in follow_up_rcu() had been consistent. ->mnt_mountpoint is pinned for as long as it is a mountpoint, but we need to check mount_lock after fetching to verify that.

2015-05-15VFS/namei: make the use of touch_atime() in get_link() RCU-safe.NeilBrown1-3/+9
touch_atime is not RCU-safe, and so cannot be called on an RCU walk. However, in situations where RCU-walk makes a difference, the symlink will likely to accessed much more often than it is useful to update the atime. So split out the test of "Does the atime actually need to be updated" into atime_needs_update(), and have get_link() unlazy if it finds that it will need to do that update.

2015-05-15namei: make unlazy_walk and terminate_walk handle nd->stack, add unlazy_linkAl Viro1-38/+100
We are almost done - primitives for leaving RCU mode are aware of nd->stack now, a new primitive for going to non-RCU mode when we have a symlink on hands added. The thing we are heavily relying upon is that *any* unlazy failure will be shortly followed by terminate_walk(), with no access to nameidata in between. So it's enough to leave the things in a state terminate_walk() would cope with. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2015-05-11namei: make may_follow_link() safe in RCU modeAl Viro1-0/+3
We *can't* call that audit garbage in RCU mode - it's doing a weird mix of allocations (GFP_NOFS, immediately followed by GFP_KERNEL) and I'm not touching that... thing again. So if this security sclero^Whardening feature gets triggered when we are in RCU mode, tough - we'll fail with -ECHILD and have everything restarted in non-RCU mode. Only to hit the same test and fail, this time with EACCES and with (oh, rapture) an audit spew produced. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2015-05-11namei: make put_link() RCU-safeAl Viro1-1/+2
very simple - just make path_put() conditional on !RCU. Note that right now it doesn't get called in RCU mode - we leave it before getting anything into stack. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2015-05-11switch ->put_link() from dentry to inodeAl Viro1-6/+7
only one instance looks at that argument at all; that sole exception wants inode rather than dentry. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2015-05-11security: make inode_follow_link RCU-walk awareNeilBrown1-2/+3
inode_follow_link now takes an inode and rcu flag as well as the dentry. inode is used in preference to d_backing_inode(dentry), particularly in RCU-walk mode. selinux_inode_follow_link() gets dentry_has_perm() and inode_has_perm() open-coded into it so that it can call avc_has_perm_flags() in way that is safe if LOOKUP_RCU is set. Calling avc_has_perm_flags() with rcu_read_lock() held means that when avc_has_perm_noaudit calls avc_compute_av(), the attempt to rcu_read_unlock() before calling security_compute_av() will not actually drop the RCU read-lock. However as security_compute_av() is completely in a read_lock()ed region, it should be safe with the RCU read-lock held.

2015-05-11namei: lift link_path_walk() call out of trailing_symlink()Al Viro1-27/+23
Make trailing_symlink() return the pathname to traverse or ERR_PTR(-E...). A subtle point is that for "magic" symlinks it returns "" now - that leads to link_path_walk("", nd), which is immediately returning 0 and we are back to the treatment of the last component, at whereever the damn thing has left us. Reduces the stack footprint - link_path_walk() called on more shallow stack now. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2015-05-11namei: path_init() calling conventions changeAl Viro1-34/+35
* lift link_path_walk() into callers; moving it down into path_init() had been a mistake. Stack footprint, among other things... * do _not_ call path_cleanup() after path_init() failure; on all failure exits out of it we have nothing for path_cleanup() to do * have path_init() return pathname or ERR_PTR(-E...)

2015-05-10namei: take increment of nd->depth into pick_link()Al Viro1-7/+4
Makes the situation much more regular - we avoid a strange state when the element just after the top of stack is used to store struct path of symlink, but isn't counted in nd->depth. This is much more regular, so the normal failure exits, etc., work fine. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2015-05-10namei: fold put_link() into the failure case of complete_walk()Al Viro1-23/+6
... and don't open-code unlazy_walk() in there - the only reason for that is to avoid verfication of cached nd->root, which is trivially avoided by discarding said cached nd->root first. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2015-05-10namei: take the treatment of absolute symlinks to get_link()Al Viro1-29/+20
rather than letting the callers handle the jump-to-root part of semantics, do it right in get_link() and return the rest of the body for the caller to deal with - at that point it's treated the same way as relative symlinks would be. And return NULL when there's no "rest of the body" - those are treated the same as pure jump symlink would be. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
