[PATCH v3 11/13] digest_cache: Reset digest cache on file/directory change

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu@xxxxxxxxxx>

Register five new LSM hooks, file_open, path_truncate, file_release,
inode_unlink and inode_rename, to monitor digest lists/directory
modifications.

If an action affects a digest list or the parent directory, the new LSM
hook implementations call digest_cache_reset() to set the RESET bit on the
digest cache. This will cause next calls to digest_cache_get() and
digest_cache_create() to respectively put and clear dig_user and dig_owner,
and request a new digest cache.

That does not affect other users of the old digest cache, since that one
remains valid as long as the reference count is greater than zero. However,
they can explicitly call the new function digest_cache_was_reset(), to
check if the RESET bit was set on the digest cache reference they hold.

Recreating a file digest cache means reading the digest list again and
extracting the digests. Recreating a directory digest cache, instead, does
not mean recreating the digest cache for directory entries, since those
digest caches are likely already stored in the inode security blob. It
would happen however for new files.

File digest cache reset is done on file_open, when a digest list is opened
for write, path_truncate, when a digest list is truncated (there is no
inode_truncate, file_truncate does not catch operations through the
truncate() system call), inode_unlink, when a digest list is removed, and
inode_rename when a digest list is renamed.

Directory digest cache reset is done on file_release, when a digest list is
written in the digest list directory, on inode_unlink, when a digest list
is deleted from that directory, and finally on inode_rename, when a digest
list is moved to/from that directory.

With the exception of file_release, which will always be executed (cannot
be denied), the other LSM hooks are not optimal, since the digest_cache LSM
does not know whether or not the operation will be allowed also by other
LSMs. If the operation is denied, the digest_cache LSM would do an
unnecessary reset.
