Hum, that "not jailbreakable" part is going to be difficult unless you also confine those users also in their user namespace. Because any user is allowed to change project ID of the files he owns arbitrarily if he is running in the initial user namespace. Project quotas have been designed as an advisory feature back in Irix days... There are talks of allowing to tweak the behavior (i.e., to allow setting of project id only by sysadmin) by a mount option but so far nobody has implemented it. > quota-4.05-3.1.x86_64 > Linux localhost 5.6.2-1-default #1 SMP Thu Apr 2 06:31:32 UTC 2020 > (c8170d6) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux > CPE_NAME="cpe:/o:opensuse:tumbleweed:20200413" > > 1- quotacheck fails with quotacheck: Cannot find filesystem to check > or filesystem not mounted with quota option. > prjquota is enabled using extended mount options but quotacheck seems > to ignore this > # tune2fs -l /dev/loop0 | grep -i mount\ opt > Default mount options: user_xattr acl > Mount options: prjquota > > (also, shouldn't these mount options be reflected in /proc/mounts?) Yes and that's deliberate. Unlike user and group quotas, project quotas are only supported when stored in hidden system files (user and group quotas are also supported in that way when you create ext4 with 'quota' feature). So checking of quotas is handled by e2fsck and quotacheck has no way to influence them. > 2- project quota are a bit too easy to escape: > dd if=/dev/zero of=someoutput oflag=append > loop0: write failed, project block limit reached. > dd: writing to 'someoutput': Disk quota exceeded > 2467+0 records in > 2466+0 records out > 1262592 bytes (1.3 MB, 1.2 MiB) copied, 0.0105432 s, 120 MB/s > vagrant@localhost:/mnt/loop/abc/mydir3> chattr -p 33 someoutput > vagrant@localhost:/mnt/loop/abc/mydir3> dd if=/dev/zero of=someoutput > oflag=append > dd: writing to 'someoutput': No space left on device > 127393+0 records in > 127392+0 records out > 65224704 bytes (65 MB, 62 MiB) copied, 0.568859 s, 115 MB/s Yes and as I mentioned above this is deliberate. > 3- project id '-1" yields fun results: > > chattr +P -p -1 . > dd if=/dev/zero of=someoutput oflag=append > dd: failed to open 'someoutput': Invalid argument Yes, that's a bug that should be fixed. Thanks for reporting this! -1 means 'this id is not expressible in current user namespace' and some code gets confused along the way.

OK, so you are unpriviledged user here, aren't you? So the failure is expected, just the return code is wrong. Do I understand your complaint correctly? I'm not able to reproduce that error: nobody@kvm0:/root> /root/source/quota-tools/setquota -P 1 2 3 4 5 /dev/vdb1 && echo success bash: /root/source/quota-tools/setquota: Permission denied nobody@kvm0:/root> Or what exactly are you testing?
