2024-06-27ovl: fix encoding fid for lower only rootMiklos Szeredi1-1/+5
commit 004b8d1491b4bcbb7da1a3206d1e7e66822d47c6 upstream. ovl_check_encode_origin() should return a positive number if the lower dentry is to be encoded, zero otherwise. If there's no upper layer at all (read-only overlay), then it obviously needs to return positive. This was broken by commit 16aac5ad1fa9 ("ovl: support encoding non-decodable file handles"), which didn't take the lower-only configuration into account. Fix by checking the no-upper-layer case up-front.

2024-03-27ovl: Always reject mounting over case-insensitive directoriesGabriel Krisman Bertazi1-3/+11
[ Upstream commit 2824083db76cb9d4b7910607b367e93b02912865 ] overlayfs relies on the filesystem setting DCACHE_OP_HASH or DCACHE_OP_COMPARE to reject mounting over case-insensitive directories. Since commit bb9cd9106b22 ("fscrypt: Have filesystems handle their d_ops"), we set ->d_op through a hook in ->d_lookup, which means the root dentry won't have them, causing the mount to accidentally succeed. In v6.7-rc7, the following sequence will succeed to mount, but any dentry other than the root dentry will be a "weird" dentry to ovl and fail with EREMOTE. mkfs.ext4 -O casefold lower.img mount -O loop lower.img lower mount -t overlay -o lowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=work ovl /mnt Mounting on a subdirectory fails, as expected, because DCACHE_OP_HASH and DCACHE_OP_COMPARE are properly set by ->lookup. Fix by explicitly rejecting superblocks that allow case-insensitive dentries. Yes, this will be solved when we move d_op configuration back to ->s_d_op. Yet, we better have an explicit fix to avoid messing up again. While there, re-sort the entries to have more descriptive error messages first.

2024-03-27ovl: add support for appending lowerdirs one by oneAmir Goldstein1-2/+76
[ Upstream commit 24e16e385f2272b1a9df51337a5c32d28a29c7ad ] Add new mount options lowerdir+ and datadir+ that can be used to add layers to lower layers stack one by one. Unlike the legacy lowerdir mount option, special characters (i.e. colons and cammas) are not unescaped with these new mount options. The new mount options can be repeated to compose a large stack of lower layers, but they may not be mixed with the lagacy lowerdir mount option, because for displaying lower layers in mountinfo, we do not want to mix escaped with unescaped lower layers path syntax. Similar to data-only layer rules with the lowerdir mount option, the datadir+ option must follow at least one lowerdir+ option and the lowerdir+ option must not follow the datadir+ option. If the legacy lowerdir mount option follows lowerdir+ and datadir+ mount options, it overrides them. Sepcifically, calling: fsconfig(FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "lowerdir", "", 0); can be used to reset previously setup lower layers.

2023-12-03fs: Pass AT_GETATTR_NOSEC flag to getattr interface functionStefan Berger2-5/+13
[ Upstream commit 8a924db2d7b5eb69ba08b1a0af46e9f1359a9bdf ] When vfs_getattr_nosec() calls a filesystem's getattr interface function then the 'nosec' should propagate into this function so that vfs_getattr_nosec() can again be called from the filesystem's gettattr rather than vfs_getattr(). The latter would add unnecessary security checks that the initial vfs_getattr_nosec() call wanted to avoid. Therefore, introduce the getattr flag GETATTR_NOSEC and allow to pass with the new getattr_flags parameter to the getattr interface function. In overlayfs and ecryptfs use this flag to determine which one of the two functions to call. In a recent code change introduced to IMA vfs_getattr_nosec() ended up calling vfs_getattr() in overlayfs, which in turn called security_inode_getattr() on an exiting process that did not have current->fs set anymore, which then caused a kernel NULL pointer dereference. With this change the call to security_inode_getattr() can be avoided, thus avoiding the NULL pointer dereference.

2023-09-04ovl: fix failed copyup of fileattr on a symlinkAmir Goldstein1-1/+2
Some local filesystems support setting persistent fileattr flags (e.g. FS_NOATIME_FL) on directories and regular files via ioctl. Some of those persistent fileattr flags are reflected to vfs as in-memory inode flags (e.g. S_NOATIME). Overlayfs uses the in-memory inode flags (e.g. S_NOATIME) on a lower file as an indication that a the lower file may have persistent inode fileattr flags (e.g. FS_NOATIME_FL) that need to be copied to upper file. However, in some cases, the S_NOATIME in-memory flag could be a false indication for persistent FS_NOATIME_FL fileattr. For example, with NFS and FUSE lower fs, as was the case in the two bug reports, the S_NOATIME flag is set unconditionally for all inodes. Users cannot set persistent fileattr flags on symlinks and special files, but in some local fs, such as ext4/btrfs/tmpfs, the FS_NOATIME_FL fileattr flag are inheritted to symlinks and special files from parent directory. In both cases described above, when lower symlink has the S_NOATIME flag, overlayfs will try to copy the symlink's fileattrs and fail with error ENOXIO, because it could not open the symlink for the ioctl security hook. To solve this failure, do not attempt to copyup fileattrs for anything other than directories and regular files.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs Pull vfs timestamp updates from Christian Brauner: "This adds VFS support for multi-grain timestamps and converts tmpfs, xfs, ext4, and btrfs to use them. This carries acks from all relevant filesystems. The VFS always uses coarse-grained timestamps when updating the ctime and mtime after a change. This has the benefit of allowing filesystems to optimize away a lot of metadata updates, down to around 1 per jiffy, even when a file is under heavy writes. Unfortunately, this has always been an issue when we're exporting via NFSv3, which relies on timestamps to validate caches. A lot of changes can happen in a jiffy, so timestamps aren't sufficient to help the client decide to invalidate the cache. Even with NFSv4, a lot of exported filesystems don't properly support a change attribute and are subject to the same problems with timestamp granularity. Other applications have similar issues with timestamps (e.g., backup applications). If we were to always use fine-grained timestamps, that would improve the situation, but that becomes rather expensive, as the underlying filesystem would have to log a lot more metadata updates. This introduces fine-grained timestamps that are used when they are actively queried. This uses the 31st bit of the ctime tv_nsec field to indicate that something has queried the inode for the mtime or ctime. When this flag is set, on the next mtime or ctime update, the kernel will fetch a fine-grained timestamp instead of the usual coarse-grained one. As POSIX generally mandates that when the mtime changes, the ctime must also change the kernel always stores normalized ctime values, so only the first 30 bits of the tv_nsec field are ever used. Filesytems can opt into this behavior by setting the FS_MGTIME flag in the fstype. Filesystems that don't set this flag will continue to use coarse-grained timestamps. Various preparatory changes, fixes and cleanups are included: - Fixup all relevant places where POSIX requires updating ctime together with mtime. This is a wide-range of places and all maintainers provided necessary Acks. - Add new accessors for inode->i_ctime directly and change all callers to rely on them.

This is useful for reporting fanotify events with fid info from different instances of overlayfs over the same upper fs.

2023-08-12ovl: Validate verity xattr when resolving lowerdataAlexander Larsson6-8/+178
The new digest field in the metacopy xattr is used during lookup to record whether the header contained a digest in the OVL_HAS_DIGEST flags. When accessing file data the first time, if OVL_HAS_DIGEST is set, we reload the metadata and check that the source lowerdata inode matches the specified digest in it (according to the enabled verity options). If the verity check passes we store this info in the inode flags as OVL_VERIFIED_DIGEST, so that we can avoid doing it again if the inode remains in memory. The verification is done in ovl_maybe_validate_verity() which needs to be called in the same places as ovl_maybe_lookup_lowerdata(), so there is a new ovl_verify_lowerdata() helper that calls these in the right order, and all current callers of ovl_maybe_lookup_lowerdata() are changed to call it instead.

2023-08-12ovl: Add framework for verity supportAlexander Larsson3-3/+65
This adds the scaffolding (docs, config, mount options) for supporting the new digest field in the metacopy xattr. This contains a fs-verity digest that need to match the fs-verity digest of the lowerdata file. The mount option "verity" specifies how this xattr is handled. If you enable verity ("verity=on") all existing xattrs are validated before use, and during metacopy we generate verity xattr in the upper metacopy file (if the source file has verity enabled). This means later accesses can guarantee that the same data is used. Additionally you can use "verity=require". In this mode all metacopy files must have a valid verity xattr. For this to work metadata copy-up must be able to create a verity xattr (so that later accesses are validated). Therefore, in this mode, if the lower data file doesn't have fs-verity enabled we fall back to a full copy rather than a metacopy. Actual implementation follows in a separate commit.

2023-08-06vfs: get rid of old '->iterate' directory operationLinus Torvalds1-1/+2
All users now just use '->iterate_shared()', which only takes the directory inode lock for reading. Filesystems that never got convered to shared mode now instead use a wrapper that drops the lock, re-takes it in write mode, calls the old function, and then downgrades the lock back to read mode. This way the VFS layer and other callers no longer need to care about filesystems that never got converted to the modern era. The filesystems that use the new wrapper are ceph, coda, exfat, jfs, ntfs, ocfs2, overlayfs, and vboxsf. Honestly, several of them look like they really could just iterate their directories in shared mode and skip the wrapper entirely, but the point of this change is to not change semantics or fix filesystems that haven't been fixed in the last 7+ years, but to finally get rid of the dual iterators.

2023-06-20ovl: reserve ability to reconfigure mount options with new mount apiChristian Brauner1-7/+18
Using the old mount api to remount an overlayfs superblock via mount(MS_REMOUNT) all mount options will be silently ignored. For example, if you create an overlayfs mount: mount -t overlay overlay -o lowerdir=/mnt/a:/mnt/b,upperdir=/mnt/upper,workdir=/mnt/work /mnt/merged and then issue a remount via: # force mount(8) to use mount(2) export LIBMOUNT_FORCE_MOUNT2=always mount -t overlay overlay -o remount,WOOTWOOT,lowerdir=/DOESNT-EXIST /mnt/merged with completely nonsensical mount options whatsoever it will succeed nonetheless. This prevents us from every changing any mount options we might introduce in the future that could reasonably be changed during a remount. We don't need to carry this issue into the new mount api port. Similar to FUSE we can use the fs_context::oldapi member to figure out that this is a request coming through the legacy mount api. If we detect it we continue silently ignoring all mount options. But for the new mount api we simply report that mount options cannot currently be changed. This will allow us to potentially alter mount properties for new or even old properties. It any case, silently ignoring everything is not something new apis should do.

2023-06-20ovl: modify layer parameter parsingChristian Brauner5-258/+520
We ran into issues where mount(8) passed multiple lower layers as one big string through fsconfig(). But the fsconfig() FSCONFIG_SET_STRING option is limited to 256 bytes in strndup_user(). While this would be fixable by extending the fsconfig() buffer I'd rather encourage users to append layers via multiple fsconfig() calls as the interface allows nicely for this. This has also been requested as a feature before. With this port to the new mount api the following will be possible: fsconfig(fs_fd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "lowerdir", "/lower1", 0); /* set upper layer */ fsconfig(fs_fd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "upperdir", "/upper", 0); /* append "/lower2", "/lower3", and "/lower4" */ fsconfig(fs_fd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "lowerdir", ":/lower2:/lower3:/lower4", 0); /* turn index feature on */ fsconfig(fs_fd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "index", "on", 0); /* append "/lower5" */ fsconfig(fs_fd, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "lowerdir", ":/lower5", 0); Specifying ':' would have been rejected so this isn't a regression. And we can't simply use "lowerdir=/lower" to append on top of existing layers as "lowerdir=/lower,lowerdir=/other-lower" would make "/other-lower" the only lower layer so we'd break uapi if we changed this. So the ':' prefix seems a good compromise. Users can choose to specify multiple layers at once or individual layers. A layer is appended if it starts with ":". This requires that the user has already added at least one layer before. If lowerdir is specified again without a leading ":" then all previous layers are dropped and replaced with the new layers. If lowerdir is specified and empty than all layers are simply dropped. An additional change is that overlayfs will now parse and resolve layers right when they are specified in fsconfig() instead of deferring until super block creation. This allows users to receive early errors. It also allows users to actually use up to 500 layers something which was theoretically possible but ended up not working due to the mount option string passed via mount(2) being too large. This also allows a more privileged process to set config options for a lesser privileged process as the creds for fsconfig() and the creds for fsopen() can differ. We could restrict that they match by enforcing that the creds of fsopen() and fsconfig() match but I don't see why that needs to be the case and allows for a good delegation mechanism. Plus, in the future it means we're able to extend overlayfs mount options and allow users to specify layers via file descriptors instead of paths: fsconfig(FSCONFIG_SET_PATH{_EMPTY}, "lowerdir", "lower1", dirfd); /* append */ fsconfig(FSCONFIG_SET_PATH{_EMPTY}, "lowerdir", "lower2", dirfd); /* append */ fsconfig(FSCONFIG_SET_PATH{_EMPTY}, "lowerdir", "lower3", dirfd); /* clear all layers specified until now */ fsconfig(FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "lowerdir", NULL, 0); This would be especially nice if users create an overlayfs mount on top of idmapped layers or just in general private mounts created via open_tree(OPEN_TREE_CLONE). Those mounts would then never have to appear anywhere in the filesystem. But for now just do the minimal thing. We should probably aim to move more validation into ovl_fs_parse_param() so users get errors before fsconfig(FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE). But that can be done in additional patches later. This is now also rebased on top of the lazy lowerdata lookup which allows the specificatin of data only layers using the new "::" syntax. The rules are simple. A data only layers cannot be followed by any regular layers and data layers must be preceeded by at least one regular layer. Parsing the lowerdir mount option must change because of this. The original patchset used the old lowerdir parsing function to split a lowerdir mount option string such as: lowerdir=/lower1:/lower2::/lower3::/lower4 simply replacing each non-escaped ":" by "\0". So sequences of non-escaped ":" were counted as layers. For example, the previous lowerdir mount option above would've counted 6 layers instead of 4 and a lowerdir mount option such as: lowerdir="/lower1:/lower2::/lower3::/lower4:::::::::::::::::::::::::::" would be counted as 33 layers. Other than being ugly this didn't matter much because kern_path() would reject the first "\0" layer. However, this overcounting of layers becomes problematic when we base allocations on it where we very much only want to allocate space for 4 layers instead of 33. So the new parsing function rejects non-escaped sequences of colons other than ":" and "::" immediately instead of relying on kern_path().

2023-06-19ovl: enable fsnotify events on underlying real filesAmir Goldstein1-2/+2
Overlayfs creates the real underlying files with fake f_path, whose f_inode is on the underlying fs and f_path on overlayfs. Those real files were open with FMODE_NONOTIFY, because fsnotify code was not prapared to handle fsnotify hooks on files with fake path correctly and fanotify would report unexpected event->fd with fake overlayfs path, when the underlying fs was being watched. Teach fsnotify to handle events on the real files, and do not set real files to FMODE_NONOTIFY to allow operations on real file (e.g. open, access, modify, close) to generate async and permission events. Because fsnotify does not have notifications on address space operations, we do not need to worry about ->vm_file not reporting events to a watched overlayfs when users are accessing a mapped overlayfs file.
