Biederman" <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 15 May 2017 14:42:07 -0500 Subject: mnt: In umount propagation reparent in a separate pass From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 570487d3faf2a1d8a220e6ee10f472163123d7da upstream. It was observed that in some pathlogical cases that the current code does not unmount everything it should. After investigation it was determined that the issue is that mnt_change_mntpoint can can change which mounts are available to be unmounted during mount propagation which is wrong. The trivial reproducer is: $ cat ./pathological.sh mount -t tmpfs test-base /mnt cd /mnt mkdir 1 2 1/1 mount --bind 1 1 mount --make-shared 1 mount --bind 1 2 mount --bind 1/1 1/1 mount --bind 1/1 1/1 echo grep test-base /proc/self/mountinfo umount 1/1 echo grep test-base /proc/self/mountinfo $ unshare -Urm ./pathological.sh The expected output looks like: 46 31 0:25 / /mnt rw,relatime - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 47 46 0:25 /1 /mnt/1 rw,relatime shared:1 - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 48 46 0:25 /1 /mnt/2 rw,relatime shared:1 - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 49 54 0:25 /1/1 /mnt/1/1 rw,relatime shared:1 - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 50 53 0:25 /1/1 /mnt/2/1 rw,relatime shared:1 - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 51 49 0:25 /1/1 /mnt/1/1 rw,relatime shared:1 - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 54 47 0:25 /1/1 /mnt/1/1 rw,relatime shared:1 - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 53 48 0:25 /1/1 /mnt/2/1 rw,relatime shared:1 - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 52 50 0:25 /1/1 /mnt/2/1 rw,relatime shared:1 - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 46 31 0:25 / /mnt rw,relatime - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 47 46 0:25 /1 /mnt/1 rw,relatime shared:1 - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 48 46 0:25 /1 /mnt/2 rw,relatime shared:1 - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 The output without the fix looks like: 46 31 0:25 / /mnt rw,relatime - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 47 46 0:25 /1 /mnt/1 rw,relatime shared:1 - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 48 46 0:25 /1 /mnt/2 rw,relatime shared:1 - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 49 54 0:25 /1/1 /mnt/1/1 rw,relatime shared:1 - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 50 53 0:25 /1/1 /mnt/2/1 rw,relatime shared:1 - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 51 49 0:25 /1/1 /mnt/1/1 rw,relatime shared:1 - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 54 47 0:25 /1/1 /mnt/1/1 rw,relatime shared:1 - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 53 48 0:25 /1/1 /mnt/2/1 rw,relatime shared:1 - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 52 50 0:25 /1/1 /mnt/2/1 rw,relatime shared:1 - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 46 31 0:25 / /mnt rw,relatime - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 47 46 0:25 /1 /mnt/1 rw,relatime shared:1 - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 48 46 0:25 /1 /mnt/2 rw,relatime shared:1 - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 52 48 0:25 /1/1 /mnt/2/1 rw,relatime shared:1 - tmpfs test-base rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 That last mount in the output was in the propgation tree to be unmounted but was missed because the mnt_change_mountpoint changed it's parent before the walk through the mount propagation tree observed it.
