Brian Gerst 2ca408d9c7 fanotify: Fix sys_fanotify_mark() on native x86-32
Commit

  121b32a58a ("x86/entry/32: Use IA32-specific wrappers for syscalls taking 64-bit arguments")

converted native x86-32 which take 64-bit arguments to use the
compat handlers to allow conversion to passing args via pt_regs.
sys_fanotify_mark() was however missed, as it has a general compat
handler. Add a config option that will use the syscall wrapper that
takes the split args for native 32-bit.

 [ bp: Fix typo in Kconfig help text. ]

Amir Goldstein fecc455978 fsnotify: fix events reported to watching parent and child
fsnotify_parent() used to send two separate events to backends when a
parent inode is watching children and the child inode is also watching.
In an attempt to avoid duplicate events in fanotify, we unified the two
backend callbacks to a single callback and handled the reporting of the
two separate events for the relevant backends (inotify and dnotify).
However the handling is buggy and can result in inotify and dnotify
listeners receiving events of the type they never asked for or spurious
events.

The problem is the unified event callback with two inode marks (parent and
child) is called when any of the parent and child inodes are watched and
interested in the event, but the parent inode's mark that is interested
in the event on the child is not necessarily the one we are currently
reporting to (it could belong to a different group).

So before reporting the parent or child event flavor to backend we need
to check that the mark is really interested in that event flavor.

The semantics of INODE and CHILD marks were hard to follow and made the
logic more complicated than it should have been.  Replace it with INODE
and PARENT marks semantics to hopefully make the logic more clear.

Thanks to Hugh Dickins for spotting a bug in the earlier version of this
patch.

Roman Gushchin b87d8cefe4 mm, memcg: rework remote charging API to support nesting
Currently the remote memcg charging API consists of two functions:
memalloc_use_memcg() and memalloc_unuse_memcg(), which set and clear the
memcg value, which overwrites the memcg of the current task.

  memalloc_use_memcg(target_memcg);
  <...>
  memalloc_unuse_memcg();

It works perfectly for allocations performed from a normal context,
however an attempt to call it from an interrupt context or just nest two
remote charging blocks will lead to an incorrect accounting.  On exit from
the inner block the active memcg will be cleared instead of being
restored.

  memalloc_use_memcg(target_memcg);

  memalloc_use_memcg(target_memcg_2);
    <...>
    memalloc_unuse_memcg();

    Error: allocation here are charged to the memcg of the current
    process instead of target_memcg.

  memalloc_unuse_memcg();

This patch extends the remote charging API by switching to a single
function: struct mem_cgroup *set_active_memcg(struct mem_cgroup *memcg),
which sets the new value and returns the old one.  So a remote charging
block will look like:

  old_memcg = set_active_memcg(target_memcg);
  <...>
  set_active_memcg(old_memcg);

This patch is heavily based on the patch by Johannes Weiner, which can be
found here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/5/28/806 .

Jan Kara 8aed8cebdd fanotify: compare fsid when merging name event
When merging name events, fsids of the two involved events have to
match. Otherwise we could merge events from two different filesystems
and thus effectively loose the second event.

Backporting note: Although the commit cacfb956d4 introducing this bug
was merged for 5.7, the relevant code didn't get used in the end until
7e8283af6e ("fanotify: report parent fid + name + child fid") which
will be merged with this patch. So there's no need for backporting this.

Add support for FAN_REPORT_FID | FAN_REPORT_DIR_FID.
Internally, it is implemented as a private case of reporting both
parent and child fids and name, the parent and child fids are recorded
in a variable length fanotify_name_event, but there is no name.

It should be noted that directory modification events are recorded
in fixed size fanotify_fid_event when not reporting name, just like
with group flags FAN_REPORT_FID.

Amir Goldstein 7e8283af6e fanotify: report parent fid + name + child fid
For a group with fanotify_init() flag FAN_REPORT_DFID_NAME, the parent
fid and name are reported for events on non-directory objects with an
info record of type FAN_EVENT_INFO_TYPE_DFID_NAME.

If the group also has the init flag FAN_REPORT_FID, the child fid
is also reported with another info record that follows the first info
record. The second info record is the same info record that would have
been reported to a group with only FAN_REPORT_FID flag.

When the child fid needs to be recorded, the variable size struct
fanotify_name_event is preallocated with enough space to store the
child fh between the dir fh and the name.

Amir Goldstein 929943b38d fanotify: add support for FAN_REPORT_NAME
Introduce a new fanotify_init() flag FAN_REPORT_NAME.  It requires the
flag FAN_REPORT_DIR_FID and there is a constant for setting both flags
named FAN_REPORT_DFID_NAME.

For a group with flag FAN_REPORT_NAME, the parent fid and name are
reported for directory entry modification events (create/detete/move)
and for events on non-directory objects.

Events on directories themselves are reported with their own fid and
"." as the name.

The parent fid and name are reported with an info record of type
FAN_EVENT_INFO_TYPE_DFID_NAME, similar to the way that parent fid is
reported with into type FAN_EVENT_INFO_TYPE_DFID, but with an appended
null terminated name string.

Amir Goldstein 5128063739 fanotify: report events with parent dir fid to sb/mount/non-dir marks
In a group with flag FAN_REPORT_DIR_FID, when adding an inode mark with
FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD, events on non-directory children are reported with
the fid of the parent.

When adding a filesystem or mount mark or mark on a non-dir inode, we
want to report events that are "possible on child" (e.g. open/close)
also with fid of the parent, as if the victim inode's parent is
interested in events "on child".

Some events, currently only FAN_MOVE_SELF, should be reported to a
sb/mount/non-dir mark with parent fid even though they are not
reported to a watching parent.

To get the desired behavior we set the flag FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD on
all the sb/mount/non-dir mark masks in a group with FAN_REPORT_DIR_FID.

For now, the flag is mutually exclusive with FAN_REPORT_FID.
Events include a single info record of type FAN_EVENT_INFO_TYPE_DFID

For now, events are only reported for:
- Directory modification events
- Events on children of a watching directory
- Events on directory objects

Soon, we will add support for reporting the parent directory fid
for events on non-directories with filesystem/mount mark and
support for reporting both parent directory fid and child fid.

Amir Goldstein 497b0c5a7c fsnotify: send event to parent and child with single callback
Instead of calling fsnotify() twice, once with parent inode and once
with child inode, if event should be sent to parent inode, send it
with both parent and child inodes marks in object type iterator and call
the backend handle_event() callback only once.

The parent inode is assigned to the standard "inode" iterator type and
the child inode is assigned to the special "child" iterator type.

In that case, the bit FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD will be set in the event mask,
the dir argument to handle_event will be the parent inode, the file_name
argument to handle_event is non NULL and refers to the name of the child
and the child inode can be accessed with fsnotify_data_inode().

This will allow fanotify to make decisions based on child or parent's
ignored mask.  For example, when a parent is interested in a specific
event on its children, but a specific child wishes to ignore this event,
the event will not be reported.  This is not what happens with current
code, but according to man page, it is the expected behavior.

Amir Goldstein f35c415678 fanotify: no external fh buffer in fanotify_name_event
The fanotify_fh struct has an inline buffer of size 12 which is enough
to store the most common local filesystem file handles (e.g. ext4, xfs).
For file handles that do not fit in the inline buffer (e.g. btrfs), an
external buffer is allocated to store the file handle.

When allocating a variable size fanotify_name_event, there is no point
in allocating also an external fh buffer when file handle does not fit
in the inline buffer.

Check required size for encoding fh, preallocate an event buffer
sufficient to contain both file handle and name and store the name after
the file handle.

At this time, when not reporting name in event, we still allocate
the fixed size fanotify_fid_event and an external buffer for large
file handles, but fanotify_alloc_name_event() has already been prepared
to accept a NULL file_name.

Amir Goldstein f454fa610a fanotify: use struct fanotify_info to parcel the variable size buffer
An fanotify event name is always recorded relative to a dir fh.
Encapsulate the name_len member of fanotify_name_event in a new struct
fanotify_info, which describes the parceling of the variable size
buffer of an fanotify_name_event.

The dir_fh member of fanotify_name_event is renamed to _dir_fh and is not
accessed directly, but via the fanotify_info_dir_fh() accessor.
Although the dir_fh len information is already available in struct
fanotify_fh, we store it also in dif_fh_totlen member of fanotify_info,
including the size of fanotify_fh header, so we know the offset of the
name in the buffer without looking inside the dir_fh.

We also add a file_fh_totlen member to allow packing another file handle
in the variable size buffer after the dir_fh and before the name.
We are going to use that space to store the child fid.

Amir Goldstein b54cecf5e2 fsnotify: pass dir argument to handle_event() callback
The 'inode' argument to handle_event(), sometimes referred to as
'to_tell' is somewhat obsolete.
It is a remnant from the times when a group could only have an inode mark
associated with an event.

We now pass an iter_info array to the callback, with all marks associated
with an event.

Most backends ignore this argument, with two exceptions:
1. dnotify uses it for sanity check that event is on directory
2. fanotify uses it to report fid of directory on directory entry
   modification events

Remove the 'inode' argument and add a 'dir' argument.
The callback function signature is deliberately changed, because
the meaning of the argument has changed and the arguments have
been documented.

The 'dir' argument is set to when 'file_name' is specified and it is
referring to the directory that the 'file_name' entry belongs to.

Jan Kara 47aaabdedf fanotify: Avoid softlockups when reading many events
When user provides large buffer for events and there are lots of events
available, we can try to copy them all to userspace without scheduling
which can softlockup the kernel (furthermore exacerbated by the
contention on notification_lock). Add a scheduling point after copying
each event.

Note that usually the real underlying problem is the cost of fanotify
event merging and the resulting contention on notification_lock but this
is a cheap way to somewhat reduce the problem until we can properly
address that.

Amir Goldstein f17936993a fanotify: turn off support for FAN_DIR_MODIFY
FAN_DIR_MODIFY has been enabled by commit 44d705b037 ("fanotify:
report name info for FAN_DIR_MODIFY event") in 5.7-rc1. Now we are
planning further extensions to the fanotify API and during that we
realized that FAN_DIR_MODIFY may behave slightly differently to be more
consistent with extensions we plan. So until we finalize these
extensions, let's not bind our hands with exposing FAN_DIR_MODIFY to
userland.

Amir Goldstein 2f02fd3fa1 fanotify: fix ignore mask logic for events on child and on dir
The comments in fanotify_group_event_mask() say:

  "If the event is on dir/child and this mark doesn't care about
   events on dir/child, don't send it!"

Specifically, mount and filesystem marks do not care about events
on child, but they can still specify an ignore mask for those events.
For example, a group that has:
- A mount mark with mask 0 and ignore_mask FAN_OPEN
- An inode mark on a directory with mask FAN_OPEN | FAN_OPEN_EXEC
  with flag FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD

A child file open for exec would be reported to group with the FAN_OPEN
event despite the fact that FAN_OPEN is in ignore mask of mount mark,
because the mark iteration loop skips over non-inode marks for events
on child when calculating the ignore mask.

Move ignore mask calculation to the top of the iteration loop block
before excluding marks for events on dir/child.

Gustavo A. R. Silva 374ad001f7 fanotify: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array
The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:

struct foo {
        int stuff;
        struct boo array[];
};

By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.

Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:

"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.

This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

Amir Goldstein 44d705b037 fanotify: report name info for FAN_DIR_MODIFY event
Report event FAN_DIR_MODIFY with name in a variable length record similar
to how fid's are reported.  With name info reporting implemented, setting
FAN_DIR_MODIFY in mark mask is now allowed.

When events are reported with name, the reported fid identifies the
directory and the name follows the fid. The info record type for this
event info is FAN_EVENT_INFO_TYPE_DFID_NAME.

For now, all reported events have at most one info record which is
either FAN_EVENT_INFO_TYPE_FID or FAN_EVENT_INFO_TYPE_DFID_NAME (for
FAN_DIR_MODIFY).  Later on, events "on child" will report both records.

There are several ways that an application can use this information:

1. When watching a single directory, the name is always relative to
the watched directory, so application need to fstatat(2) the name
relative to the watched directory.

2. When watching a set of directories, the application could keep a map
of dirfd for all watched directories and hash the map by fid obtained
with name_to_handle_at(2).  When getting a name event, the fid in the
event info could be used to lookup the base dirfd in the map and then
call fstatat(2) with that dirfd.

3. When watching a filesystem (FAN_MARK_FILESYSTEM) or a large set of
directories, the application could use open_by_handle_at(2) with the fid
in event info to obtain dirfd for the directory where event happened and
call fstatat(2) with this dirfd.

The last option scales better for a large number of watched directories.
The first two options may be available in the future also for non
privileged fanotify watchers, because open_by_handle_at(2) requires
the CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH capability.

Amir Goldstein 9e2ba2c34f fanotify: send FAN_DIR_MODIFY event flavor with dir inode and name
Dirent events are going to be supported in two flavors:

1. Directory fid info + mask that includes the specific event types
   (e.g. FAN_CREATE) and an optional FAN_ONDIR flag.
2. Directory fid info + name + mask that includes only FAN_DIR_MODIFY.

To request the second event flavor, user needs to set the event type
FAN_DIR_MODIFY in the mark mask.

The first flavor is supported since kernel v5.1 for groups initialized
with flag FAN_REPORT_FID.  It is intended to be used for watching
directories in "batch mode" - the watcher is notified when directory is
changed and re-scans the directory content in response.  This event
flavor is stored more compactly in the event queue, so it is optimal
for workloads with frequent directory changes.

The second event flavor is intended to be used for watching large
directories, where the cost of re-scan of the directory on every change
is considered too high.  The watcher getting the event with the directory
fid and entry name is expected to call fstatat(2) to query the content of
the entry after the change.

Legacy inotify events are reported with name and event mask (e.g. "foo",
FAN_CREATE | FAN_ONDIR).  That can lead users to the conclusion that
there is *currently* an entry "foo" that is a sub-directory, when in fact
"foo" may be negative or non-dir by the time user gets the event.

To make it clear that the current state of the named entry is unknown,
when reporting an event with name info, fanotify obfuscates the specific
event types (e.g. create,delete,rename) and uses a common event type -
FAN_DIR_MODIFY to describe the change.  This should make it harder for
users to make wrong assumptions and write buggy filesystem monitors.

At this point, name info reporting is not yet implemented, so trying to
set FAN_DIR_MODIFY in mark mask will return -EINVAL.

Amir Goldstein 55bf882c7f fanotify: fix merging marks masks with FAN_ONDIR
Change the logic of FAN_ONDIR in two ways that are similar to the logic
of FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD, that was fixed in commit 54a307ba8d ("fanotify:
fix logic of events on child"):

1. The flag is meaningless in ignore mask
2. The flag refers only to events in the mask of the mark where it is set

This is what the fanotify_mark.2 man page says about FAN_ONDIR:
"Without this flag, only events for files are created."  It doesn't
say anything about setting this flag in ignore mask to stop getting
events on directories nor can I think of any setup where this capability
would be useful.

Currently, when marks masks are merged, the FAN_ONDIR flag set in one
mark affects the events that are set in another mark's mask and this
behavior causes unexpected results.  For example, a user adds a mark on a
directory with mask FAN_ATTRIB | FAN_ONDIR and a mount mark with mask
FAN_OPEN (without FAN_ONDIR).  An opendir() of that directory (which is
inside that mount) generates a FAN_OPEN event even though neither of the
marks requested to get open events on directories.

Amir Goldstein f367a62a7c fanotify: merge duplicate events on parent and child
With inotify, when a watch is set on a directory and on its child, an
event on the child is reported twice, once with wd of the parent watch
and once with wd of the child watch without the filename.

With fanotify, when a watch is set on a directory and on its child, an
event on the child is reported twice, but it has the exact same
information - either an open file descriptor of the child or an encoded
fid of the child.

The reason that the two identical events are not merged is because the
object id used for merging events in the queue is the child inode in one
event and parent inode in the other.

For events with path or dentry data, use the victim inode instead of the
watched inode as the object id for event merging, so that the event
reported on parent will be merged with the event reported on the child.

The .ioctl and .compat_ioctl file operations have the same prototype so
they can both point to the same function, which works great almost all
the time when all the commands are compatible.

One exception is the s390 architecture, where a compat pointer is only
31 bit wide, and converting it into a 64-bit pointer requires calling
compat_ptr(). Most drivers here will never run in s390, but since we now
have a generic helper for it, it's easy enough to use it consistently.

I double-checked all these drivers to ensure that all ioctl arguments
are used as pointers or are ignored, but are not interpreted as integer
values.

Pull selinux updates from Paul Moore:

 - Add LSM hooks, and SELinux access control hooks, for dnotify,
   fanotify, and inotify watches. This has been discussed with both the
   LSM and fs/notify folks and everybody is good with these new hooks.

 - The LSM stacking changes missed a few calls to current_security() in
   the SELinux code; we fix those and remove current_security() for
   good.

 - Improve our network object labeling cache so that we always return
   the object's label, even when under memory pressure. Previously we
   would return an error if we couldn't allocate a new cache entry, now
   we always return the label even if we can't create a new cache entry
   for it.

 - Convert the sidtab atomic_t counter to a normal u32 with
   READ/WRITE_ONCE() and memory barrier protection.

 - A few patches to policydb.c to clean things up (remove forward
   declarations, long lines, bad variable names, etc)

Aaron Goidel ac5656d8a4 fanotify, inotify, dnotify, security: add security hook for fs notifications
As of now, setting watches on filesystem objects has, at most, applied a
check for read access to the inode, and in the case of fanotify, requires
CAP_SYS_ADMIN. No specific security hook or permission check has been
provided to control the setting of watches. Using any of inotify, dnotify,
or fanotify, it is possible to observe, not only write-like operations, but
even read access to a file. Modeling the watch as being merely a read from
the file is insufficient for the needs of SELinux. This is due to the fact
that read access should not necessarily imply access to information about
when another process reads from a file. Furthermore, fanotify watches grant
more power to an application in the form of permission events. While
notification events are solely, unidirectional (i.e. they only pass
information to the receiving application), permission events are blocking.
Permission events make a request to the receiving application which will
then reply with a decision as to whether or not that action may be
completed. This causes the issue of the watching application having the
ability to exercise control over the triggering process. Without drawing a
distinction within the permission check, the ability to read would imply
the greater ability to control an application. Additionally, mount and
superblock watches apply to all files within the same mount or superblock.
Read access to one file should not necessarily imply the ability to watch
all files accessed within a given mount or superblock.

In order to solve these issues, a new LSM hook is implemented and has been
placed within the system calls for marking filesystem objects with inotify,
fanotify, and dnotify watches. These calls to the hook are placed at the
point at which the target path has been resolved and are provided with the
path struct, the mask of requested notification events, and the type of
object on which the mark is being set (inode, superblock, or mount). The
mask and obj_type have already been translated into common FS_* values
shared by the entirety of the fs notification infrastructure. The path
struct is passed rather than just the inode so that the mount is available,
particularly for mount watches. This also allows for use of the hook by
pathname-based security modules. However, since the hook is intended for
use even by inode based security modules, it is not placed under the
CONFIG_SECURITY_PATH conditional. Otherwise, the inode-based security
modules would need to enable all of the path hooks, even though they do not
use any of them.

This only provides a hook at the point of setting a watch, and presumes
that permission to set a particular watch implies the ability to receive
all notification about that object which match the mask. This is all that
is required for SELinux. If other security modules require additional hooks
or infrastructure to control delivery of notification, these can be added
by them. It does not make sense for us to propose hooks for which we have
no implementation. The understanding that all notifications received by the
requesting application are all strictly of a type for which the application
has been granted permission shows that this implementation is sufficient in
its coverage.

Security modules wishing to provide complete control over fanotify must
also implement a security_file_open hook that validates that the access
requested by the watching application is authorized. Fanotify has the issue
that it returns a file descriptor with the file mode specified during
fanotify_init() to the watching process on event. This is already covered
by the LSM security_file_open hook if the security module implements
checking of the requested file mode there. Otherwise, a watching process
can obtain escalated access to a file for which it has not been authorized.

The selinux_path_notify hook implementation works by adding five new file
permissions: watch, watch_mount, watch_sb, watch_reads, and watch_with_perm
(descriptions about which will follow), and one new filesystem permission:
watch (which is applied to superblock checks). The hook then decides which
subset of these permissions must be held by the requesting application
based on the contents of the provided mask and the obj_type. The
selinux_file_open hook already checks the requested file mode and therefore
ensures that a watching process cannot escalate its access through
fanotify.

The watch, watch_mount, and watch_sb permissions are the baseline
permissions for setting a watch on an object and each are a requirement for
any watch to be set on a file, mount, or superblock respectively. It should
be noted that having either of the other two permissions (watch_reads and
watch_with_perm) does not imply the watch, watch_mount, or watch_sb
permission. Superblock watches further require the filesystem watch
permission to the superblock. As there is no labeled object in view for
mounts, there is no specific check for mount watches beyond watch_mount to
the inode. Such a check could be added in the future, if a suitable labeled
object existed representing the mount.

The watch_reads permission is required to receive notifications from
read-exclusive events on filesystem objects. These events include accessing
a file for the purpose of reading and closing a file which has been opened
read-only. This distinction has been drawn in order to provide a direct
indication in the policy for this otherwise not obvious capability. Read
access to a file should not necessarily imply the ability to observe read
events on a file.

Finally, watch_with_perm only applies to fanotify masks since it is the
only way to set a mask which allows for the blocking, permission event.
This permission is needed for any watch which is of this type. Though
fanotify requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN, this is insufficient as it gives implicit
trust to root, which we do not do, and does not support least privilege.
