[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.11 42/87] fanotify: allow reporting errors on failure to open fd

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

 



From: Amir Goldstein <amir73il@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 522249f05c5551aec9ec0ba9b6438f1ec19c138d ]

When working in "fd mode", fanotify_read() needs to open an fd
from a dentry to report event->fd to userspace.

Opening an fd from dentry can fail for several reasons.
For example, when tasks are gone and we try to open their
/proc files or we try to open a WRONLY file like in sysfs
or when trying to open a file that was deleted on the
remote network server.

Add a new flag FAN_REPORT_FD_ERROR for fanotify_init().
For a group with FAN_REPORT_FD_ERROR, we will send the
event with the error instead of the open fd, otherwise
userspace may not get the error at all.

For an overflow event, we report -EBADF to avoid confusing FAN_NOFD
with -EPERM.  Similarly for pidfd open errors we report either -ESRCH
or the open error instead of FAN_NOPIDFD and FAN_EPIDFD.

In any case, userspace will not know which file failed to
open, so add a debug print for further investigation.
