2008-11-24User namespaces: set of cleanups (v2)Serge Hallyn
The user_ns is moved from nsproxy to user_struct, so that a struct cred by itself is sufficient to determine access (which it otherwise would not be). Corresponding ecryptfs fixes (by David Howells) are here as well. Fix refcounting. The following rules now apply: 1. The task pins the user struct. 2. The user struct pins its user namespace. 3. The user namespace pins the struct user which created it. User namespaces are cloned during copy_creds(). Unsharing a new user_ns is no longer possible. (We could re-add that, but it'll cause code duplication and doesn't seem useful if PAM doesn't need to clone user namespaces). When a user namespace is created, its first user (uid 0) gets empty keyrings and a clean group_info. This incorporates a previous patch by David Howells. Here is his original patch description: >I suggest adding the attached incremental patch.

2008-11-19eCryptfs: Allocate up to two scatterlists for crypto ops on keysMichael Halcrow
I have received some reports of out-of-memory errors on some older AMD architectures. These errors are what I would expect to see if crypt_stat->key were split between two separate pages. eCryptfs should not assume that any of the memory sent through virt_to_scatterlist() is all contained in a single page, and so this patch allocates two scatterlist structs instead of one when processing keys. I have received confirmation from one person affected by this bug that this patch resolves the issue for him, and so I am submitting it for inclusion in a future stable release. Note that virt_to_scatterlist() runs sg_init_table() on the scatterlist structs passed to it, so the calls to sg_init_table() in decrypt_passphrase_encrypted_session_key() are redundant.

2008-11-14CRED: Pass credentials through dentry_open()David Howells
Pass credentials through dentry_open() so that the COW creds patch can have SELinux's flush_unauthorized_files() pass the appropriate creds back to itself when it opens its null chardev.

2008-11-14CRED: Wrap task credential accesses in the eCryptFS filesystemDavid Howells
Wrap access to task credentials so that they can be separated more easily from the task_struct during the introduction of COW creds. Change most current->(|e|s|fs)[ug]id to current_(|e|s|fs)[ug]id(). Change some task->e?[ug]id to task_e?[ug]id(). In some places it makes more sense to use RCU directly rather than a convenient wrapper; these will be addressed by later patches.

2008-10-30ecryptfs: fix memory corruption when storing crypto info in xattrsEric Sandeen
When ecryptfs allocates space to write crypto headers into, before copying it out to file headers or to xattrs, it looks at the value of crypt_stat->num_header_bytes_at_front to determine how much space it needs. This is also used as the file offset to the actual encrypted data, so for xattr-stored crypto info, the value was zero. So, we kzalloc'd 0 bytes, and then ran off to write to that memory. (Which returned as ZERO_SIZE_PTR, so we explode quickly). The right answer is to always allocate a page to write into; the current code won't ever write more than that (this is enforced by the (PAGE_CACHE_SIZE - offset) length in the call to ecryptfs_generate_key_packet_set). To be explicit about this, we now send in a "max" parameter, rather than magically using PAGE_CACHE_SIZE there. Also, since the pointer we pass down the callchain eventually gets the virt_to_page() treatment, we should be using a alloc_page variant, not kzalloc (see also 7fcba054373d5dfc43d26e243a5c9b92069972ee) Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Acked-by: Michael Halcrow <mhalcrow@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2008-07-28eCryptfs: use page_alloc not kmalloc to get a page of memoryEric Sandeen
With SLUB debugging turned on in 2.6.26, I was getting memory corruption when testing eCryptfs. The root cause turned out to be that eCryptfs was doing kmalloc(PAGE_CACHE_SIZE); virt_to_page() and treating that as a nice page-aligned chunk of memory. But at least with SLUB debugging on, this is not always true, and the page we get from virt_to_page does not necessarily match the PAGE_CACHE_SIZE worth of memory we got from kmalloc. My simple testcase was 2 loops doing "rm -f fileX; cp /tmp/fileX ." for 2 different multi-megabyte files. With this change I no longer see the corruption.

There is no good reason to immediately open the lower file, and that can cause problems with files that the user does not intend to immediately open, such as device nodes. This patch removes the persistent file open from the interpose step and pushes that to the locations where eCryptfs really does need the lower persistent file, such as just before reading or writing the metadata stored in the lower file header. Two functions are jumping to out_dput when they should just be jumping to out on error paths. This patch also fixes these.

2008-07-24eCryptfs: Privileged kthread for lower file opensMichael Halcrow
eCryptfs would really like to have read-write access to all files in the lower filesystem. Right now, the persistent lower file may be opened read-only if the attempt to open it read-write fails. One way to keep from having to do that is to have a privileged kthread that can open the lower persistent file on behalf of the user opening the eCryptfs file; this patch implements this functionality. This patch will properly allow a less-privileged user to open the eCryptfs file, followed by a more-privileged user opening the eCryptfs file, with the first user only being able to read and the second user being able to both read and write. eCryptfs currently does this wrong; it will wind up calling vfs_write() on a file that was opened read-only. This is fixed in this patch.

2008-04-29eCryptfs: introduce device handle for userspace daemon communicationsMichael Halcrow
A regular device file was my real preference from the get-go, but I went with netlink at the time because I thought it would be less complex for managing send queues (i.e., just do a unicast and move on). It turns out that we do not really get that much complexity reduction with netlink, and netlink is more heavyweight than a device handle. In addition, the netlink interface to eCryptfs has been broken since 2.6.24. I am assuming this is a bug in how eCryptfs uses netlink, since the other in-kernel users of netlink do not seem to be having any problems. I have had one report of a user successfully using eCryptfs with netlink on 2.6.24, but for my own systems, when starting the userspace daemon, the initial helo message sent to the eCryptfs kernel module results in an oops right off the bat. I spent some time looking at it, but I have not yet found the cause. The netlink interface breaking gave me the motivation to just finish my patch to migrate to a regular device handle. If I cannot find out soon why the netlink interface in eCryptfs broke, I am likely to just send a patch to disable it in 2.6.24 and 2.6.25. I would like the device handle to be the preferred means of communicating with the userspace daemon from 2.6.26 on forward. This patch: Functions to facilitate reading and writing to the eCryptfs miscellaneous device handle. This will replace the netlink interface as the preferred mechanism for communicating with the userspace eCryptfs daemon. Each user has his own daemon, which registers itself by opening the eCryptfs device handle. Only one daemon per euid may be registered at any given time. The eCryptfs module sends a message to a daemon by adding its message to the daemon's outgoing message queue. The daemon reads the device handle to get the oldest message off the queue. Incoming messages from the userspace daemon are immediately handled. If the message is a response, then the corresponding process that is blocked waiting for the response is awakened.

2008-03-04eCryptfs: make ecryptfs_prepare_write decrypt the pageMichael Halcrow
When the page is not up to date, ecryptfs_prepare_write() should be acting much like ecryptfs_readpage(). This includes the painfully obvious step of actually decrypting the page contents read from the lower encrypted file. Note that this patch resolves a bug in eCryptfs in 2.6.24 that one can produce with these steps: # mount -t ecryptfs /secret /secret # echo "abc" > /secret/file.txt # umount /secret # mount -t ecryptfs /secret /secret # echo "def" >> /secret/file.txt # cat /secret/file.txt Without this patch, the resulting data returned from cat is likely to be something other than "abc\ndef\n".

2008-02-14Embed a struct path into struct nameidata instead of nd->{dentry,mnt}Jan Blunck
This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata. Together with the other patches of this series - it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on <dentry,vfsmount> pairs - it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed - it reduces the overall code size: without patch series: text data bss dec hex filename 5321639 858418 715768 6895825 6938d1 vmlinux with patch series: text data bss dec hex filename 5320026 858418 715768 6894212 693284 vmlinux This patch: Switch from nd->{dentry,mnt} to nd->path.{dentry,mnt} everywhere.

2008-02-06ecryptfs: check for existing key_tfm at mount timeEric Sandeen
Jeff Moyer pointed out that a mount; umount loop of ecryptfs, with the same cipher & other mount options, created a new ecryptfs_key_tfm_cache item each time, and the cache could grow quite large this way. Looking at this with mhalcrow, we saw that ecryptfs_parse_options() unconditionally called ecryptfs_add_new_key_tfm(), which is what was adding these items. Refactor ecryptfs_get_tfm_and_mutex_for_cipher_name() to create a new helper function, ecryptfs_tfm_exists(), which checks for the cipher on the cached key_tfm_list, and sets a pointer to it if it exists. This can then be called from ecryptfs_parse_options(), and new key_tfm's can be added only when a cached one is not found. With list locking changes suggested by akpm.

2008-02-06ecryptfs: remove debug as mount option, and warn if set via modprobeEric Sandeen
ecryptfs_debug really should not be a mount option; it is not per-mount, but rather sets a global "ecryptfs_verbosity" variable which affects all mounted filesysytems. It's already settable as a module load option, I think we can leave it at that. Also, if set, since secret values come out in debug messages, kick things off with a stern warning.

2008-02-06ecryptfs: make show_options reflect actual mount optionsEric Sandeen
Change ecryptfs_show_options to reflect the actual mount options in use. Note that this does away with the "dir=" output, which is not a valid mount option and appears to be unused. Mount options such as "ecryptfs_verbose" and "ecryptfs_xattr_metadata" are somewhat indeterminate for a given fs, but in any case the reported mount options can be used in a new mount command to get the same behavior.
