Hi,
I am working on adding xattr/attr support for landlock [1], so we can
control fs accesses such as chmod, chown, uptimes, setxattr, etc.. inside
landlock sandbox. the LSM hooks as following are invoved:
1.inode_setattr
2.inode_setxattr
3.inode_removexattr
4.inode_set_acl
5.inode_remove_acl
which are controlled by LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_WRITE_METADATA.
and
1.inode_getattr
2.inode_get_acl
3.inode_getxattr
4.inode_listxattr
which are controlled by LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_READ_METADATA
Some of these hooks only take struct dentry as a argument, However, for
path-based LSMs such Landlock, Apparmor and Tomoyo, struct path instead
of struct dentry required to make sense of attr/xattr accesses. So we
need to refactor these hooks to take a struct path argument.
This patchset only refators inode_setattr hook as part of whole work.
Also, I have a problem about file_dentry() in __file_remove_privs() of the
first patch, before changes in commit c1892c37769cf ("vfs: fix deadlock in
file_remove_privs() on overlayfs"), it gets dentry and inode as belows:
struct dentry *dentry = file->f_path.dentry;
struct inode *inode = d_inode(dentry);
That would be clear to change it to pass &file->f_path to
__remove_privs()->notify_change()->inode_setattr().
After that commit, it has been changed to:
struct dentry *dentry = file_dentry(file);
struct inode *inode = file_inode(file);
If I understand correctly, the dentry from file_dentry() maybe the upper
or the lower, it can be different from file->f_path.dentry. It can't just
go back to use &file->f_path otherwise the bug will come back for
overlayfs. So for such scenario, how to get a path from file if the file
maybe or not from overlayfs, and which kind of overlayfs path is ok for
Landlock?
