Introduce a new mount bind mount property to allow idmapping mounts. The
MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP flag can be set via the new mount_setattr() syscall
together with a file descriptor referring to a user namespace.
The user namespace referenced by the namespace file descriptor will be
attached to the bind mount. All interactions with the filesystem going
through that mount will be idmapped according to the mapping specified
in the user namespace attached to it.
Using user namespaces to mark mounts means we can reuse all the existing
infrastructure in the kernel that already exists to handle idmappings
and can also use this for permission checking to allow unprivileged user
to create idmapped mounts in the future.
Idmapping a mount is decoupled from the caller's user and mount
namespace. This means idmapped mounts can be created in the initial
user namespace which is an important use-case for systemd-homed,
portable usb-sticks between systems, sharing data between the initial
user namespace and unprivileged containers, and other use-cases that
have been brought up. For example, assume a home directory where all
files are owned by uid and gid 1000 and the home directory is brought to
a new laptop where the user has id 12345. The system administrator can
simply create a mount of this home directory with a mapping of
1000:12345:1 and other mappings to indicate the ids should be kept.
(With this it is e.g. also possible to create idmapped mounts on the
host with an identity mapping 1:1:100000 where the root user is not
mapped. A user with root access that e.g. has been pivot rooted into
such a mount on the host will be not be able to execute, read, write, or
create files as root.)
Given that idmapping a mount is decoupled from the caller's user
namespace a sufficiently privileged process such as a container manager
can set up a shifted mount for the container and the container can
simply pivot root to it. There's no need for the container to do
anything. The mount will appear correctly mapped independent of the user
namespace the container uses. This means we don't need to mark a mount
as idmappable.
In order to create an idmapped mount the caller must currently be
privileged in the user namespace of the superblock the mount belongs to.
Currently, once a mount has been idmapped we don't allow it to change
its mapping. This can be changed in the future if the use-cases arise.

/* v2 */
- Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx>:
- Drop kconfig option to make vfs idmappings unconditional.
- Move introduction of MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP to the end of the series after all
internal changes have been done.
- Move MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP handling from build_mount_kattr() to separate
build_mount_idmapped() helper.
- Move MNT_IDMAPPED handling from do_mount_setattr() into separate
do_mount_idmap() helper.
- Use more helpers instead of one big function for mount attribute changes.
- Mauricio Vásquez Bernal <mauricio@xxxxxxxxxx>:
- Recalculate flags before checking can_change_locked_flags().
/* v3 */
- David Howells <dhowells@xxxxxxxxxx>:
- Use smp_load_acquire() and smp_store_release() in mnt_user_ns() and do_idmap_mount().
- Remove all references to MNT_IDMAPPED now that the flag has been removed.
/* v4 */
- Serge Hallyn <serge@xxxxxxxxxx>:
- Use "mnt_userns" to refer to a vfsmount's userns everywhere to make
terminology consistent.
