[PATCH v6 01/40] mount: attach mappings to mounts

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

 



In order to support per-mount idmappings vfsmounts are marked with user
namespaces. The idmapping of the user namespace will be used to map the
ids of vfs objects when they are accessed through that mount. By default
all vfsmounts are marked with the initial user namespace. The initial
user namespace is used to indicate that a mount is not idmapped. All
operations behave as before.

Based on prior discussions we want to attach the whole user namespace
and not just a dedicated idmapping struct. This allows us to reuse all
the helpers that already exist for dealing with idmappings instead of
introducing a whole new range of helpers. In addition, if we decide in
the future that we are confident enough to enable unprivileged users to
setup idmapped mounts the permission checking can take into account
whether the caller is privileged in the user namespace the mount is
currently marked with.
Later patches enforce that once a mount has been idmapped it can't be
remapped. This keeps permission checking and life-cycle management
simple. Users wanting to change the idmapped can always create a new
detached mount with a different idmapping.

Add a new mnt_userns member to vfsmount and two simple helpers to
retrieve the mnt_userns from vfsmounts and files.

The idea to attach user namespaces to vfsmounts has been floated around
in various forms at Linux Plumbers in ~2018 with the original idea
tracing back to a discussion in 2017 at a conference in St. Petersburg
between Christoph, Tycho, and myself.

/* v2 */
patch introduced
- Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx>:
  - Split internal implementation into separate patch and move syscall
    implementation later.

/* v3 */
- David Howells <dhowells@xxxxxxxxxx>:
  - Remove MNT_IDMAPPED flag. We can simply check the pointer and use
    smp_load_acquire() in later patches.

- Tycho Andersen <tycho@tycho.pizza>:
  - Use READ_ONCE() in mnt_user_ns().

/* v4 */
- Serge Hallyn <serge@xxxxxxxxxx>:
  - Use "mnt_userns" to refer to a vfsmount's userns everywhere to make
    terminology consistent.

- Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx>:
  - Drop the READ_ONCE() from this patch. At this point in the series we
    don't allowing changing the vfsmount's userns. The infra to do that
    is only introduced as almost the last patch in the series and there
    we immediately use smp_load_acquire() and smp_store_release().

/* v5 */
unchanged

/* v6 */
base-commit: 19c329f6808995b142b3966301f217c831e7cf31

- Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx>:
  - Move file_mnt_user_ns() helper into this patch.
