Add CLONE_MNTNS_SHIFT_UIDGID flag which is a mount namespace flag when
set mount points on filesystems that support UID/GID shifts will have
their UIDs and GIDs shifted by the VFS. The UID and GID mapping rules are per
mount namespace, they follow the rules of the user namespace of the containing
mount namespace. The UID/GID of inodes are supposed to always contain
the on-disk values, hence, the shift will be done inside VFS and it's a read
shift when we access the inodes.
This is a preparation patch.
Goal:
/* (1) */
clone4(CLONE_NEWNS|CLONE_MNTNS_SHIFT_UIDGID, ...)
/*
Setup container base mount namespace, rootfs and mount all
necessary mount points and filesystems that can't be mounted
in user namespaces. Filesystems that support uid/gid shifts
should set the mount parameters.
mount(..., mount_options=[vfs_shift_uids, vfs_shift_gids])
*/
/* (2) */
/*
Setup new mount and user namespaces and inherit the
CLONE_MNTNS_SHIFT_UIDGID flag from (1) into the new mount
namespace (2).
*/
clone4(CLONE_NEWUSER|CLONE_NEWNS|CLONE_MNTNS_SHIFT_UIDGID, ...)
/*
inodes of mount points here that support UID/GID shifts will have
automatically their UID/GID shifted according to the user
namespace rules of the current mount namespace (2).
*/
We create the new user and mount namespaces where:
1) The mount namespace allows mounts inside it that support UID and GID
shifting to perform the shifts if the CLONE_MNTNS_SHIFT_UIDGID is set
in the current mount namespace.
2) The UID and GID mapping is done according to the rules of the user
namespace of the containing mount namespace. The CLONE_MNTNS_SHIFT_UIDGID
follows the CLONE_NEWUSER|CLONE_NEWNS combination. This ensures that
only the creator of the mount namespace is able to adjust the user
namespace mapping rules.
The flag CLONE_MNTNS_SHIFT_UIDGID can be set on the mount namespace
only if:
1) The parent namespace has already CLONE_MNTNS_SHIFT_UIDGID set on
its mount namespace.
2) The caller has CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the init_user_ns namespace, since we
start from that namespace and we inherit some mount points we have to
protect files from privileged userns doing:
clone(CLONE_NEWUSER|CLONE_NEWNS|CLONE_MNTNS_SHIFT_UIDGID...)
This is blocked.
If a filesystem was mounted with "vfs_shift_uids" and "vfs_shift_gids"
and shows up in a mount namespace that does not include the
CLONE_MNTNS_SHIFT_UIDGID, then no shift is done. UIDs and GIDs will
not be changed at all, and things will continue to work as they are now.
