* | sysfs: Functions for adding/removing symlinks to/from attribute groupsRafael J. Wysocki2013-01-253-13/+76
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The most convenient way to expose ACPI power resources lists of a device is to put symbolic links to sysfs directories representing those resources into special attribute groups in the device's sysfs directory. For this purpose, it is necessary to be able to add symbolic links to attribute groups. For this reason, add sysfs helper functions for adding/removing symbolic links to/from attribute groups, sysfs_add_link_to_group() and sysfs_remove_link_from_group(), respectively. This change set includes a build fix from David Rientjes. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com> Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

The user space interface is now complete. This set of changes adds support for unprivileged users to create user namespaces and as a user namespace root to create other namespaces. The tyranny of supporting suid root preventing unprivileged users from using cool new kernel features is broken. This set of changes completes the work on setns, adding support for the pid, user, mount namespaces. This set of changes includes a bunch of basic pid namespace cleanups/simplifications. Of particular significance is the rework of the pid namespace cleanup so it no longer requires sending out tendrils into all kinds of unexpected cleanup paths for operation. At least one case of broken error handling is fixed by this cleanup. The files under /proc/<pid>/ns/ have been converted from regular files to magic symlinks which prevents incorrect caching by the VFS, ensuring the files always refer to the namespace the process is currently using and ensuring that the ptrace_mayaccess permission checks are always applied. The files under /proc/<pid>/ns/ have been given stable inode numbers so it is now possible to see if different processes share the same namespaces. Through the David Miller's net tree are changes to relax many of the permission checks in the networking stack to allowing the user namespace root to usefully use the networking stack. Similar changes for the mount namespace and the pid namespace are coming through my tree. Two small changes to add user namespace support were commited here adn in David Miller's -net tree so that I could complete the work on the /proc/<pid>/ns/ files in this tree. Work remains to make it safe to build user namespaces and 9p, afs, ceph, cifs, coda, gfs2, ncpfs, nfs, nfsd, ocfs2, and xfs so the Kconfig guard remains in place preventing that user namespaces from being built when any of those filesystems are enabled. Future design work remains to allow root users outside of the initial user namespace to mount more than just /proc and /sys." * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: (38 commits) proc: Usable inode numbers for the namespace file descriptors. proc: Fix the namespace inode permission checks. proc: Generalize proc inode allocation userns: Allow unprivilged mounts of proc and sysfs userns: For /proc/self/{uid,gid}_map derive the lower userns from the struct file procfs: Print task uids and gids in the userns that opened the proc file userns: Implement unshare of the user namespace userns: Implent proc namespace operations userns: Kill task_user_ns userns: Make create_new_namespaces take a user_ns parameter userns: Allow unprivileged use of setns. userns: Allow unprivileged users to create new namespaces userns: Allow setting a userns mapping to your current uid. userns: Allow chown and setgid preservation userns: Allow unprivileged users to create user namespaces. userns: Ignore suid and sgid on binaries if the uid or gid can not be mapped userns: fix return value on mntns_install() failure vfs: Allow unprivileged manipulation of the mount namespace. vfs: Only support slave subtrees across different user namespaces vfs: Add a user namespace reference from struct mnt_namespace ...

| * sysfs: fail dentry revalidation after namespace changeGlauber Costa2012-07-171-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we change the namespace tag of a sysfs entry, the associated dentry is still kept around. readdir() will work correctly and not display the old entries, but open() will still succeed, so will reads and writes. This will no longer happen if sysfs is remounted, hinting that this is a cache-related problem. I am using the following sequence to demonstrate that: shell1: ip link add type veth unshare -nm shell2: ip link set veth1 <pid_of_shell_1> cat /sys/devices/virtual/net/veth1/ifindex Before that patch, this will succeed (fail to fail). After it, it will correctly return an error. Differently from a normal rename, which we handle fine, changing the object namespace will keep it's path intact. So this check seems necessary as well.

Highlights: - Config guards make it impossible to enable the user namespace and code that has not been converted to be user namespace safe. - Use of the new kuid_t type ensures the if you somehow get past the config guards the kernel will encounter type errors if you enable user namespaces and attempt to compile in code whose permission checks have not been updated to be user namespace safe. - All uids from child user namespaces are mapped into the initial user namespace before they are processed. Removing the need to add an additional check to see if the user namespace of the compared uids remains the same. - With the user namespaces compiled out the performance is as good or better than it is today. - For most operations absolutely nothing changes performance or operationally with the user namespace enabled. - The worst case performance I could come up with was timing 1 billion cache cold stat operations with the user namespace code enabled. This went from 156s to 164s on my laptop (or 156ns to 164ns per stat operation). - (uid_t)-1 and (gid_t)-1 are reserved as an internal error value. Most uid/gid setting system calls treat these value specially anyway so attempting to use -1 as a uid would likely cause entertaining failures in userspace. - If setuid is called with a uid that can not be mapped setuid fails. I have looked at sendmail, login, ssh and every other program I could think of that would call setuid and they all check for and handle the case where setuid fails. - If stat or a similar system call is called from a context in which we can not map a uid we lie and return overflowuid. The LFS experience suggests not lying and returning an error code might be better, but the historical precedent with uids is different and I can not think of anything that would break by lying about a uid we can't map. - Capabilities are localized to the current user namespace making it safe to give the initial user in a user namespace all capabilities. My git tree covers all of the modifications needed to convert the core kernel and enough changes to make a system bootable to runlevel 1."

* | | sysfs: get rid of some lockdep false positivesAlan Stern2012-05-141-5/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch (as1554) fixes a lockdep false-positive report. The problem arises because lockdep is unable to deal with the tree-structured locks created by the device core and sysfs. This particular problem involves a sysfs attribute method that unregisters itself, not from the device it was called for, but from a descendant device. Lockdep doesn't understand the distinction and reports a possible deadlock, even though the operation is safe. This is the sort of thing that would normally be handled by using a nested lock annotation; unfortunately it's not feasible to do that here. There's no sensible way to tell sysfs when attribute removal occurs in the context of a parent attribute method. As a workaround, the patch adds a new flag to struct attribute telling sysfs not to inform lockdep when it acquires a readlock on a sysfs_dirent instance for the attribute. The readlock is still acquired, but lockdep doesn't know about it and hence does not complain about impossible deadlock scenarios. Also added are macros for static initialization of attribute structures with the ignore_lockdep flag set. The three offending attributes in the USB subsystem are converted to use the new macros.

It checks sd->s_iattr is NULL or not. Then if it is NULL, it calls sysfs_init_inode_attrs() to allocate memory. That code is this. iattrs = sd->s_iattr; if (!iattrs) iattrs = sysfs_init_inode_attrs(sd); The iattrs recieves sysfs_init_inode_attrs()'s result, but sd->s_iattr doesn't know the address. so it needs to set correct address to sd->s_iattr to free memory in other function. unreferenced object 0xffff880250b73e60 (size 32): comm "systemd", pid 1, jiffies 4294683888 (age 94.553s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 73 79 73 74 65 6d 5f 75 3a 6f 62 6a 65 63 74 5f system_u:object_ 72 3a 73 79 73 66 73 5f 74 3a 73 30 00 00 00 00 r:sysfs_t:s0.... backtrace: [<ffffffff814cb1d0>] kmemleak_alloc+0x73/0x98 [<ffffffff811270ab>] __kmalloc+0x100/0x12c [<ffffffff8120775a>] context_struct_to_string+0x106/0x210 [<ffffffff81207cc1>] security_sid_to_context_core+0x10b/0x129 [<ffffffff812090ef>] security_sid_to_context+0x10/0x12 [<ffffffff811fb0da>] selinux_inode_getsecurity+0x7d/0xa8 [<ffffffff811fb127>] selinux_inode_getsecctx+0x22/0x2e [<ffffffff811f4d62>] security_inode_getsecctx+0x16/0x18 [<ffffffff81191dad>] sysfs_setxattr+0x96/0x117 [<ffffffff811542f0>] __vfs_setxattr_noperm+0x73/0xd9 [<ffffffff811543d9>] vfs_setxattr+0x83/0xa1 [<ffffffff811544c6>] setxattr+0xcf/0x101 [<ffffffff81154745>] sys_lsetxattr+0x6a/0x8f [<ffffffff814efda9>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b [<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff unreferenced object 0xffff88024163c5a0 (size 96): comm "systemd", pid 1, jiffies 4294683888 (age 94.553s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 00 00 00 00 ed 41 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 .....A.......... 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0c 64 42 4f 00 00 00 00 .........dBO.... backtrace: [<ffffffff814cb1d0>] kmemleak_alloc+0x73/0x98 [<ffffffff81127402>] kmem_cache_alloc_trace+0xc4/0xee [<ffffffff81191cbe>] sysfs_init_inode_attrs+0x2a/0x83 [<ffffffff81191dd6>] sysfs_setxattr+0xbf/0x117 [<ffffffff811542f0>] __vfs_setxattr_noperm+0x73/0xd9 [<ffffffff811543d9>] vfs_setxattr+0x83/0xa1 [<ffffffff811544c6>] setxattr+0xcf/0x101 [<ffffffff81154745>] sys_lsetxattr+0x6a/0x8f [<ffffffff814efda9>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b [<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff ` Signed-off-by: Masami Ichikawa <masami256@gmail.com> Cc: stable <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

Recently an OOPS was observed from the usb serial io_ti driver when it tried to remove sysfs directories. Upon investigation it turns out this driver was always buggy and that a recent sysfs change had stopped guarding itself against removing attributes from sysfs directories that had already been removed. :( Historically we have been silent about attempting to files from nonexistent sysfs directories and have politely returned error codes. That has resulted in people writing broken code that ignores the error codes. Issue a kernel WARNING and a stack backtrace to make it clear in no uncertain terms that abusing sysfs is not ok, and the callers need to fix their code. This change transforms the io_ti OOPS into a more comprehensible error message and stack backtrace. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

Because we now only use a single rbtree this reduces the size of sysfs_dirent by 2 pointers. Because we have fewer cases to deal with the code is now simpler. For now I use the simple hash that the dcache uses as that is easy to use and seems simple enough.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In sysfs_rename we need to remove the optimization of not calling sysfs_unlink_sibling and sysfs_link_sibling if the renamed parent directory is not changing. This optimization is no longer valid now that sysfs dirents are stored in an rbtree sorted by name. Move the assignment of s_ns before the call of sysfs_link_sibling. With no sysfs_dirent fields changing after the call of sysfs_link_sibling this allows sysfs_link_sibling to take any of the directory entries into account when it builds the rbtrees, and s_ns looks like a prime canidate to be used in the rbtree in the future.

* sysfs: Remove support for tagged directories with untagged members (again)Eric W. Biederman2011-10-251-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In commit 8a9ea3237e7e ("Merge git://.../davem/net-next") where my sysfs changes from the net tree merged with the sysfs rbtree changes from Mickulas Patocka the conflict resolution failed to preserve the simplified property that was the point of my changes. That is sysfs_find_dirent can now say something is a match if and only s_name and s_ns match what we are looking for, and sysfs_readdir can simply return all of the directory entries where s_ns matches the directory that we should be returning. Now that we are back to exact matches we can tweak sysfs_find_dirent and the name rb_tree to order sysfs_dirents by s_ns s_name and remove the second loop in sysfs_find_dirent.
