vfs: define struct filename and have getname() return it

2012-10-13T00:14:55+00:00

getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to the string. For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled, we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not need to recopy it from userspace. This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it. Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes convenient. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton Signed-off-by: Al Viro

quota: Silence warning about PRJQUOTA not being handled in need_print_warning()

2012-10-09T21:37:38+00:00

PRJQUOTA value of quota type should never reach need_print_warning() since XFS (which is the only fs which uses that type) doesn't use generic functions calling this function. Anyway, add PRJQUOTA case to the switch to make gcc happy. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace

2012-10-02T18:11:09+00:00

Pull user namespace changes from Eric Biederman: "This is a mostly modest set of changes to enable basic user namespace support. This allows the code to code to compile with user namespaces enabled and removes the assumption there is only the initial user namespace. Everything is converted except for the most complex of the filesystems: autofs4, 9p, afs, ceph, cifs, coda, fuse, gfs2, ncpfs, nfs, ocfs2 and xfs as those patches need a bit more review. The strategy is to push kuid_t and kgid_t values are far down into subsystems and filesystems as reasonable. Leaving the make_kuid and from_kuid operations to happen at the edge of userspace, as the values come off the disk, and as the values come in from the network. Letting compile type incompatible compile errors (present when user namespaces are enabled) guide me to find the issues. The most tricky areas have been the places where we had an implicit union of uid and gid values and were storing them in an unsigned int. Those places were converted into explicit unions. I made certain to handle those places with simple trivial patches. Out of that work I discovered we have generic interfaces for storing quota by projid. I had never heard of the project identifiers before. Adding full user namespace support for project identifiers accounts for most of the code size growth in my git tree. Ultimately there will be work to relax privlige checks from "capable(FOO)" to "ns_capable(user_ns, FOO)" where it is safe allowing root in a user names to do those things that today we only forbid to non-root users because it will confuse suid root applications. While I was pushing kuid_t and kgid_t changes deep into the audit code I made a few other cleanups. I capitalized on the fact we process netlink messages in the context of the message sender. I removed usage of NETLINK_CRED, and started directly using current->tty. Some of these patches have also made it into maintainer trees, with no problems from identical code from different trees showing up in linux-next. After reading through all of this code I feel like I might be able to win a game of kernel trivial pursuit."

userns: Convert quota

2012-09-18T08:01:42+00:00

Now that the type changes are done, here is the final set of changes to make the quota code work when user namespaces are enabled. Small cleanups and fixes to make the code build when user namespaces are enabled. Cc: Jan Kara Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman"

userns: Convert struct dquot_warn

2012-09-18T08:01:42+00:00

Convert w_dq_id to be a struct kquid and remove the now unncessary w_dq_type. This is a simple conversion and enough other places have already been converted that this actually reduces the code complexity by a little bit, when removing now unnecessary type conversions. Cc: Jan Kara Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman"

userns: Convert struct dquot dq_id to be a struct kqid

2012-09-18T08:01:41+00:00

Change struct dquot dq_id to a struct kqid and remove the now unecessary dq_type. Make minimal changes to dquot, quota_tree, quota_v1, quota_v2, ext3, ext4, and ocfs2 to deal with the change in quota structures and signatures. The ocfs2 changes are larger than most because of the extensive tracing throughout the ocfs2 quota code that prints out dq_id. quota_tree.c:get_index is modified to take a struct kqid instead of a qid_t because all of it's callers pass in dquot->dq_id and it allows me to introduce only a single conversion. The rest of the changes are either just replacing dq_type with dq_id.type, adding conversions to deal with the change in type and occassionally adding qid_eq to allow quota id comparisons in a user namespace safe way.

userns: Modify dqget to take struct kqid

2012-09-18T08:01:40+00:00

Modify dqget to take struct kqid instead of a type and an identifier pair. Modify the callers of dqget in ocfs2 and dquot to take generate a struct kqid so they can continue to call dqget. The conversion to create struct kqid should all be the final conversions that are needed in those code paths. Cc: Jan Kara Cc: Mark Fasheh Cc: Joel Becker Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman"

userns: Convert quota netlink aka quota_send_warning

2012-09-18T08:01:40+00:00

Modify quota_send_warning to take struct kqid instead a type and identifier pair. When sending netlink broadcasts always convert uids and quota identifiers into the intial user namespace. There is as yet no way to send a netlink broadcast message with different contents to receivers in different namespaces, so for the time being just map all of the identifiers into the initial user namespace which preserves the current behavior. Change the callers of quota_send_warning in gfs2, xfs and dquot to generate a struct kqid to pass to quota send warning. When all of the user namespaces convesions are complete a struct kqid values will be availbe without need for conversion, but a conversion is needed now to avoid needing to convert everything at once.

userns: Convert qutoactl

2012-09-18T08:01:39+00:00

Update the quotactl user space interface to successfull compile with user namespaces support enabled and to hand off quota identifiers to lower layers of the kernel in struct kqid instead of type and qid pairs. The quota on function is not converted because while it takes a quota type and an id. The id is the on disk quota format to use, which is something completely different. The signature of two struct quotactl_ops methods were changed to take struct kqid argumetns get_dqblk and set_dqblk. The dquot, xfs, and ocfs2 implementations of get_dqblk and set_dqblk are minimally changed so that the code continues to work with the change in parameter type. This is the first in a series of changes to always store quota identifiers in the kernel in struct kqid and only use raw type and qid values when interacting with on disk structures or userspace. Always using struct kqid internally makes it hard to miss places that need conversion to or from the kernel internal values.
