Hey,
This series extend the mapping infrastructure in order to support mapped
mounts of mapped filesystems in the future.
Currently we only support mapped mounts of filesystems mounted without an
idmapping. This was a consicous decision mentioned in multiple places. For
example, see [1].
In our mapping documentation in [3] we explained in detail that it is
perfectly fine to extend support for mapped mounts to filesystem's mounted
with an idmapping should the need arise. The need has been there for some
time now (cf. [2]).
Before we can port any such filesystem we need to first extend the mapping
helpers to account for the filesystem's idmapping in the remapping helpers.
This again, is explained at length in our documentation at [3].
Currently, the low-level mapping helpers implement the remapping algorithms
described in [3] in a simplified manner. Because we could rely on the fact
that all filesystems supporting mapped mounts are mounted without an
idmapping the translation step from or into the filesystem idmapping could
be skipped.
In order to support mapped mounts of filesystem's mountable with an
idmapping the translation step we were able to skip before cannot be
skipped anymore. A filesystem mounted with an idmapping is very likely to
not use an identity mapping and will instead use a non-identity mapping. So
the translation step from or into the filesystem's idmapping in the
remapping algorithm cannot be skipped for such filesystems. More details
with examples can be found in [3].
This series adds a few new as well as prepares and tweaks some already
existing low-level mapping helpers to perform the full translation
algorithm explained in [3]. The low-level helpers can be written in a way
that they only perform the additional translation step when the filesystem
is indeed mounted with an idmapping.
Since we don't yet support such a filesystem yet a kernel was compiled
carrying a trivial patch making ext4 mountable with an idmapping:
# We're located on the host with the initial idmapping.
ubuntu@f2-vm:~$ cat /proc/self/uid_map
0 0 4294967295
# Mount an ext4 filesystem with the initial idmapping.
ubuntu@f2-vm:~$ sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/loop0 /mnt
# The filesystem contains two files. One owned by id 0 and another one owned by
# id 1000 in the initial idmapping.
