2020-12-03fsnotify: generalize handle_inode_event()Amir Goldstein1-1/+1
The handle_inode_event() interface was added as (quoting comment): "a simple variant of handle_event() for groups that only have inode marks and don't have ignore mask". In other words, all backends except fanotify. The inotify backend also falls under this category, but because it required extra arguments it was left out of the initial pass of backends conversion to the simple interface. This results in code duplication between the generic helper fsnotify_handle_event() and the inotify_handle_event() callback which also happen to be buggy code. Generalize the handle_inode_event() arguments and add the check for FS_EXCL_UNLINK flag to the generic helper, so inotify backend could be converted to use the simple interface.

2020-07-28fsnotify: create method handle_inode_event() in fsnotify_operationsAmir Goldstein1-30/+8
The method handle_event() grew a lot of complexity due to the design of fanotify and merging of ignore masks. Most backends do not care about this complex functionality, so we can hide this complexity from them. Introduce a method handle_inode_event() that serves those backends and passes a single inode mark and less arguments. This change converts all backends except fanotify and inotify to use the simplified handle_inode_event() method. In pricipal, inotify could have also used the new method, but that would require passing more arguments on the simple helper (data, data_type, cookie), so we leave it with the handle_event() method.

2020-07-27fsnotify: pass dir argument to handle_event() callbackAmir Goldstein1-4/+4
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.

2019-08-13fanotify, inotify, dnotify, security: add security hook for fs notificationsAaron Goidel1-3/+12
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.

2018-08-18fs: fsnotify: account fsnotify metadata to kmemcgShakeel Butt1-2/+3
Patch series "Directed kmem charging", v8. The Linux kernel's memory cgroup allows limiting the memory usage of the jobs running on the system to provide isolation between the jobs. All the kernel memory allocated in the context of the job and marked with __GFP_ACCOUNT will also be included in the memory usage and be limited by the job's limit. The kernel memory can only be charged to the memcg of the process in whose context kernel memory was allocated. However there are cases where the allocated kernel memory should be charged to the memcg different from the current processes's memcg. This patch series contains two such concrete use-cases i.e. fsnotify and buffer_head. The fsnotify event objects can consume a lot of system memory for large or unlimited queues if there is either no or slow listener. The events are allocated in the context of the event producer. However they should be charged to the event consumer. Similarly the buffer_head objects can be allocated in a memcg different from the memcg of the page for which buffer_head objects are being allocated. To solve this issue, this patch series introduces mechanism to charge kernel memory to a given memcg. In case of fsnotify events, the memcg of the consumer can be used for charging and for buffer_head, the memcg of the page can be charged. For directed charging, the caller can use the scope API memalloc_[un]use_memcg() to specify the memcg to charge for all the __GFP_ACCOUNT allocations within the scope. This patch (of 2): A lot of memory can be consumed by the events generated for the huge or unlimited queues if there is either no or slow listener. This can cause system level memory pressure or OOMs. So, it's better to account the fsnotify kmem caches to the memcg of the listener. However the listener can be in a different memcg than the memcg of the producer and these allocations happen in the context of the event producer. This patch introduces remote memcg charging API which the producer can use to charge the allocations to the memcg of the listener. There are seven fsnotify kmem caches and among them allocations from dnotify_struct_cache, dnotify_mark_cache, fanotify_mark_cache and inotify_inode_mark_cachep happens in the context of syscall from the listener. So, SLAB_ACCOUNT is enough for these caches. The objects from fsnotify_mark_connector_cachep are not accounted as they are small compared to the notification mark or events and it is unclear whom to account connector to since it is shared by all events attached to the inode. The allocations from the event caches happen in the context of the event producer. For such caches we will need to remote charge the allocations to the listener's memcg. Thus we save the memcg reference in the fsnotify_group structure of the listener. This patch has also moved the members of fsnotify_group to keep the size same, at least for 64 bit build, even with additional member by filling the holes.

2018-07-21signal: Use PIDTYPE_TGID to clearly store where file signals will be sentEric W. Biederman1-1/+2
When f_setown is called a pid and a pid type are stored. Replace the use of PIDTYPE_PID with PIDTYPE_TGID as PIDTYPE_TGID goes to the entire thread group. Replace the use of PIDTYPE_MAX with PIDTYPE_PID as PIDTYPE_PID now is only for a thread. Update the users of __f_setown to use PIDTYPE_TGID instead of PIDTYPE_PID.

After removing event structure creation from the generic layer there is no reason for separate .should_send_event and .handle_event callbacks. So just remove the first one.

2014-01-22fsnotify: do not share events between notification groupsJan Kara1-6/+5
Currently fsnotify framework creates one event structure for each notification event and links this event into all interested notification groups. This is done so that we save memory when several notification groups are interested in the event. However the need for event structure shared between inotify & fanotify bloats the event structure so the result is often higher memory consumption. Another problem is that fsnotify framework keeps path references with outstanding events so that fanotify can return open file descriptors with its events. This has the undesirable effect that filesystem cannot be unmounted while there are outstanding events - a regression for inotify compared to a situation before it was converted to fsnotify framework. For fanotify this problem is hard to avoid and users of fanotify should kind of expect this behavior when they ask for file descriptors from notified files. This patch changes fsnotify and its users to create separate event structure for each group. This allows for much simpler code (~400 lines removed by this patch) and also smaller event structures. For example on 64-bit system original struct fsnotify_event consumes 120 bytes, plus additional space for file name, additional 24 bytes for second and each subsequent group linking the event, and additional 32 bytes for each inotify group for private data. After the conversion inotify event consumes 48 bytes plus space for file name which is considerably less memory unless file names are long and there are several groups interested in the events (both of which are uncommon). Fanotify event fits in 56 bytes after the conversion (fanotify doesn't care about file names so its events don't have to have it allocated). A win unless there are four or more fanotify groups interested in the event. The conversion also solves the problem with unmount when only inotify is used as we don't have to grab path references for inotify events.

2013-07-09dnotify: replace dnotify_mark_mutex with mark mutex of dnotify_groupLino Sanfilippo1-12/+13
There is no need to use a special mutex to protect against the fcntl/close race (see dnotify.c for a description of this race). Instead the dnotify_groups mark mutex can be used.

2010-07-28fanotify: use both marks when possibleEric Paris1-1/+1
fanotify currently, when given a vfsmount_mark will look up (if it exists) the corresponding inode mark. This patch drops that lookup and uses the mark provided. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
2010-07-28fsnotify: pass both the vfsmount mark and inode markEric Paris1-7/+11
should_send_event() and handle_event() will both need to look up the inode event if they get a vfsmount event. Lets just pass both at the same time since we have them both after walking the lists in lockstep. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
2010-07-28fsnotify: remove group->maskEric Paris1-4/+0
group->mask is now useless. It was originally a shortcut for fsnotify to save on performance. These checks are now redundant, so we remove them. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
2010-07-28fsnotify: cleanup should_send_eventEric Paris1-10/+1
The change to use srcu and walk the object list rather than the global fsnotify_group list means that should_send_event is no longer needed for a number of groups and can be simplified for others. Do that. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
2010-07-28dnotify: use the mark in handler functionsEric Paris1-17/+5
dnotify now gets a mark in the should_send_event and handle_event functions. Rather than look up the mark themselves dnotify should just use the mark it was handed. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
2010-07-28fsnotify: send fsnotify_mark to groups in event handling functionsEric Paris1-1/+3
With the change of fsnotify to use srcu walking the marks list instead of walking the global groups list we now know the mark in question. The code can send the mark to the group's handling functions and the groups won't have to find those marks themselves. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
2010-07-28fsnotify: allow marks to not pin inodes in coreEric Paris1-1/+1
inotify marks must pin inodes in core. dnotify doesn't technically need to since they are closed when the directory is closed. fanotify also need to pin inodes in core as it works today. But the next step is to introduce the concept of 'ignored masks' which is actually a mask of events for an inode of no interest. I claim that these should be liberally sent to the kernel and should not pin the inode in core. If the inode is brought back in the listener will get an event it may have thought excluded, but this is not a serious situation and one any listener should deal with. This patch lays the ground work for non-pinning inode marks by using lazy inode pinning. We do not pin a mark until it has a non-zero mask entry. If a listener new sets a mask we never pin the inode.

2010-07-28fsnotify: split generic and inode specific mark codeEric Paris1-6/+6

2010-07-28fsnotify: put inode specific fields in an fsnotify_mark in a unionEric Paris1-2/+2

2010-07-28fsnotify: include vfsmount in should_send_event when appropriateEric Paris1-2/+2
To ensure that a group will not duplicate events when it receives it based on the vfsmount and the inode should_send_event test we should distinguish those two cases. We pass a vfsmount to this function so groups can make their own determinations. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
