License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

nsfs: add pid translation ioctls Add ioctl()s to translate pids between pid namespaces. LXCFS is a tiny fuse filesystem used to virtualize various aspects of procfs. LXCFS is run on the host. The files and directories it creates can be bind-mounted by e.g. a container at startup and mounted over the various procfs files the container wishes to have virtualized. When e.g. a read request for uptime is received, LXCFS will receive the pid of the reader. In order to virtualize the corresponding read, LXCFS needs to know the pid of the init process of the reader's pid namespace. In order to do this, LXCFS first needs to fork() two helper processes. The first helper process setns() to the readers pid namespace. The second helper process is needed to create a process that is a proper member of the pid namespace. The second helper process then creates a ucred message with ucred.pid set to 1 and sends it back to LXCFS. The kernel will translate the ucred.pid field to the corresponding pid number in LXCFS's pid namespace. This way LXCFS can learn the init pid number of the reader's pid namespace and can go on to virtualize. Since these two forks() are costly LXCFS maintains an init pid cache that caches a given pid for a fixed amount of time. The cache is pruned during new read requests. However, even with the cache the hit of the two forks() is singificant when a very large number of containers are running. With this simple patch we add an ns ioctl that let's a caller retrieve the init pid nr of a pid namespace through its pid namespace fd. This significantly improves performance with a very simple change. Support translation of pids and tgids. Other concepts can be added but there are no obvious users for this right now. To protect against races pidfds can be used to check whether the process is still valid. If needed, this can also be extended to work on pidfds directly.

nsfs: iterate through mount namespaces It is already possible to list mounts in other mount namespaces and to retrieve namespace file descriptors without having to go through procfs by deriving them from pidfds. Augment these abilities by adding the ability to retrieve information about a mount namespace via NS_MNT_GET_INFO. This will return the mount namespace id and the number of mounts currently in the mount namespace. The number of mounts can be used to size the buffer that needs to be used for listmount() and is in general useful without having to actually iterate through all the mounts. The structure is extensible. And add the ability to iterate through all mount namespaces over which the caller holds privilege returning the file descriptor for the next or previous mount namespace. To retrieve a mount namespace the caller must be privileged wrt to it's owning user namespace. This means that PID 1 on the host can list all mounts in all mount namespaces or that a container can list all mounts of its nested containers. Optionally pass a structure for NS_MNT_GET_INFO with NS_MNT_GET_{PREV,NEXT} to retrieve information about the mount namespace in one go. Both ioctls can be implemented for other namespace types easily. Together with recent api additions this means one can iterate through all mounts in all mount namespaces without ever touching procfs.

pidfs: remove config option As Linus suggested this enables pidfs unconditionally. A key property to retain is the ability to compare pidfds by inode number (cf. [1]). That's extremely helpful just as comparing namespace file descriptors by inode number is. They are used in a variety of scenarios where they need to be compared, e.g., when receiving a pidfd via SO_PEERPIDFD from a socket to trivially authenticate a the sender and various other use-cases. For 64bit systems this is pretty trivial to do. For 32bit it's slightly more annoying as we discussed but we simply add a dumb ida based allocator that gets used on 32bit. This gives the same guarantees about inode numbers on 64bit without any overflow risk. Practically, we'll never run into overflow issues because we're constrained by the number of processes that can exist on 32bit and by the number of open files that can exist on a 32bit system. On 64bit none of this matters and things are very simple. If 32bit also needs the uniqueness guarantee they can simply parse the contents of /proc/<pid>/fd/<nr>. The uniqueness guarantees have a variety of use-cases. One of the most obvious ones is that they will make pidfiles (or "pidfdfiles", I guess) reliable as the unique identifier can be placed into there that won't be reycled. Also a frequent request. Note, I took the chance and simplified path_from_stashed() even further. Instead of passing the inode number explicitly to path_from_stashed() we let the filesystem handle that internally. So path_from_stashed() ends up even simpler than it is now. This is also a good solution allowing the cleanup code to be clean and consistent between 32bit and 64bit. The cleanup path in prepare_anon_dentry() is also switched around so we put the inode before the dentry allocation. This means we only have to call the cleanup handler for the filesystem's inode data once and can rely ->evict_inode() otherwise. Aside from having to have a bit of extra code for 32bit it actually ends up a nice cleanup for path_from_stashed() imho. Tested on both 32 and 64bit including error injection.

nsfs: Add an ioctl() to return the namespace type Linux 4.9 added two ioctl() operations that can be used to discover: * the parental relationships for hierarchical namespaces (user and PID) [NS_GET_PARENT] * the user namespaces that owns a specified non-user-namespace [NS_GET_USERNS] For no good reason that I can glean, NS_GET_USERNS was made synonymous with NS_GET_PARENT for user namespaces. It might have been better if NS_GET_USERNS had returned an error if the supplied file descriptor referred to a user namespace, since it suggests that the caller may be confused. More particularly, if it had generated an error, then I wouldn't need the new ioctl() operation proposed here. (On the other hand, what I propose here may be more generally useful.) I would like to write code that discovers namespace relationships for the purpose of understanding the namespace setup on a running system. In particular, given a file descriptor (or pathname) for a namespace, N, I'd like to obtain the corresponding user namespace. Namespace N might be a user namespace (in which case my code would just use N) or a non-user namespace (in which case my code will use NS_GET_USERNS to get the user namespace associated with N). The problem is that there is no way to tell the difference by looking at the file descriptor (and if I try to use NS_GET_USERNS on an N that is a user namespace, I get the parent user namespace of N, which is not what I want). This patch therefore adds a new ioctl(), NS_GET_NSTYPE, which, given a file descriptor that refers to a user namespace, returns the namespace type (one of the CLONE_NEW* constants).

nsfs: add pid translation ioctls Add ioctl()s to translate pids between pid namespaces. LXCFS is a tiny fuse filesystem used to virtualize various aspects of procfs. LXCFS is run on the host. The files and directories it creates can be bind-mounted by e.g. a container at startup and mounted over the various procfs files the container wishes to have virtualized. When e.g. a read request for uptime is received, LXCFS will receive the pid of the reader. In order to virtualize the corresponding read, LXCFS needs to know the pid of the init process of the reader's pid namespace. In order to do this, LXCFS first needs to fork() two helper processes. The first helper process setns() to the readers pid namespace. The second helper process is needed to create a process that is a proper member of the pid namespace. The second helper process then creates a ucred message with ucred.pid set to 1 and sends it back to LXCFS. The kernel will translate the ucred.pid field to the corresponding pid number in LXCFS's pid namespace. This way LXCFS can learn the init pid number of the reader's pid namespace and can go on to virtualize. Since these two forks() are costly LXCFS maintains an init pid cache that caches a given pid for a fixed amount of time. The cache is pruned during new read requests. However, even with the cache the hit of the two forks() is singificant when a very large number of containers are running. With this simple patch we add an ns ioctl that let's a caller retrieve the init pid nr of a pid namespace through its pid namespace fd. This significantly improves performance with a very simple change. Support translation of pids and tgids. Other concepts can be added but there are no obvious users for this right now.

nsfs: iterate through mount namespaces It is already possible to list mounts in other mount namespaces and to retrieve namespace file descriptors without having to go through procfs by deriving them from pidfds. Augment these abilities by adding the ability to retrieve information about a mount namespace via NS_MNT_GET_INFO. This will return the mount namespace id and the number of mounts currently in the mount namespace. The number of mounts can be used to size the buffer that needs to be used for listmount() and is in general useful without having to actually iterate through all the mounts. The structure is extensible. And add the ability to iterate through all mount namespaces over which the caller holds privilege returning the file descriptor for the next or previous mount namespace. To retrieve a mount namespace the caller must be privileged wrt to it's owning user namespace. This means that PID 1 on the host can list all mounts in all mount namespaces or that a container can list all mounts of its nested containers. Optionally pass a structure for NS_MNT_GET_INFO with NS_MNT_GET_{PREV,NEXT} to retrieve information about the mount namespace in one go. Both ioctls can be implemented for other namespace types easily. Together with recent api additions this means one can iterate through all mounts in all mount namespaces without ever touching procfs.

nsproxy: attach to namespaces via pidfds For quite a while we have been thinking about using pidfds to attach to namespaces. This patchset has existed for about a year already but we've wanted to wait to see how the general api would be received and adopted. Now that more and more programs in userspace have started using pidfds for process management it's time to send this one out. This patch makes it possible to use pidfds to attach to the namespaces of another process, i.e. they can be passed as the first argument to the setns() syscall. When only a single namespace type is specified the semantics are equivalent to passing an nsfd. That means setns(nsfd, CLONE_NEWNET) equals setns(pidfd, CLONE_NEWNET). However, when a pidfd is passed, multiple namespace flags can be specified in the second setns() argument and setns() will attach the caller to all the specified namespaces all at once or to none of them. Specifying 0 is not valid together with a pidfd. Here are just two obvious examples: setns(pidfd, CLONE_NEWPID | CLONE_NEWNS | CLONE_NEWNET); setns(pidfd, CLONE_NEWUSER); Allowing to also attach subsets of namespaces supports various use-cases where callers setns to a subset of namespaces to retain privilege, perform an action and then re-attach another subset of namespaces. If the need arises, as Eric suggested, we can extend this patchset to assume even more context than just attaching all namespaces. His suggestion specifically was about assuming the process' root directory when setns(pidfd, 0) or setns(pidfd, SETNS_PIDFD) is specified. For now, just keep it flexible in terms of supporting subsets of namespaces but let's wait until we have users asking for even more context to be assumed. At that point we can add an extension. The obvious example where this is useful is a standard container manager interacting with a running container: pushing and pulling files or directories, injecting mounts, attaching/execing any kind of process, managing network devices all these operations require attaching to all or at least multiple namespaces at the same time. Given that nowadays most containers are spawned with all namespaces enabled we're currently looking at at least 14 syscalls, 7 to open the /proc/<pid>/ns/<ns> nsfds, another 7 to actually perform the namespace switch. With time namespaces we're looking at about 16 syscalls. (We could amortize the first 7 or 8 syscalls for opening the nsfds by stashing them in each container's monitor process but that would mean we need to send around those file descriptors through unix sockets everytime we want to interact with the container or keep on-disk state. Even in scenarios where a caller wants to join a particular namespace in a particular order callers still profit from batching other namespaces. That mostly applies to the user namespace but all container runtimes I found join the user namespace first no matter if it privileges or deprivileges the container similar to how unshare behaves.) With pidfds this becomes a single syscall no matter how many namespaces are supposed to be attached to. A decently designed, large-scale container manager usually isn't the parent of any of the containers it spawns so the containers don't die when it crashes or needs to update or reinitialize. This means that for the manager to interact with containers through pids is inherently racy especially on systems where the maximum pid number is not significicantly bumped. This is even more problematic since we often spawn and manage thousands or ten-thousands of containers. Interacting with a container through a pid thus can become risky quite quickly. Especially since we allow for an administrator to enable advanced features such as syscall interception where we're performing syscalls in lieu of the container. In all of those cases we use pidfds if they are available and we pass them around as stable references. Using them to setns() to the target process' namespaces is as reliable as using nsfds. Either the target process is already dead and we get ESRCH or we manage to attach to its namespaces but we can't accidently attach to another process' namespaces. So pidfds lend themselves to be used with this api. The other main advantage is that with this change the pidfd becomes the only relevant token for most container interactions and it's the only token we need to create and send around. Apart from significiantly reducing the number of syscalls from double digit to single digit which is a decent reason post-spectre/meltdown this also allows to switch to a set of namespaces atomically, i.e. either attaching to all the specified namespaces succeeds or we fail. If we fail we haven't changed a single namespace. There are currently three namespaces that can fail (other than for ENOMEM which really is not very interesting since we then have other problems anyway) for non-trivial reasons, user, mount, and pid namespaces. We can fail to attach to a pid namespace if it is not our current active pid namespace or a descendant of it. We can fail to attach to a user namespace because we are multi-threaded or because our current mount namespace shares filesystem state with other tasks, or because we're trying to setns() to the same user namespace, i.e. the target task has the same user namespace as we do. We can fail to attach to a mount namespace because it shares filesystem state with other tasks or because we fail to lookup the new root for the new mount namespace. In most non-pathological scenarios these issues can be somewhat mitigated. But there are cases where we're half-attached to some namespace and failing to attach to another one. I've talked about some of these problem during the hallway track (something only the pre-COVID-19 generation will remember) of Plumbers in Los Angeles in 2018(?). Even if all these issues could be avoided with super careful userspace coding it would be nicer to have this done in-kernel. Pidfds seem to lend themselves nicely for this. The other neat thing about this is that setns() becomes an actual counterpart to the namespace bits of unshare().

pidfs: remove config option As Linus suggested this enables pidfs unconditionally. A key property to retain is the ability to compare pidfds by inode number (cf. [1]). That's extremely helpful just as comparing namespace file descriptors by inode number is. They are used in a variety of scenarios where they need to be compared, e.g., when receiving a pidfd via SO_PEERPIDFD from a socket to trivially authenticate a the sender and various other use-cases. For 64bit systems this is pretty trivial to do. For 32bit it's slightly more annoying as we discussed but we simply add a dumb ida based allocator that gets used on 32bit. This gives the same guarantees about inode numbers on 64bit without any overflow risk. Practically, we'll never run into overflow issues because we're constrained by the number of processes that can exist on 32bit and by the number of open files that can exist on a 32bit system. On 64bit none of this matters and things are very simple. If 32bit also needs the uniqueness guarantee they can simply parse the contents of /proc/<pid>/fd/<nr>. The uniqueness guarantees have a variety of use-cases. One of the most obvious ones is that they will make pidfiles (or "pidfdfiles", I guess) reliable as the unique identifier can be placed into there that won't be reycled. Also a frequent request. Note, I took the chance and simplified path_from_stashed() even further. Instead of passing the inode number explicitly to path_from_stashed() we let the filesystem handle that internally. So path_from_stashed() ends up even simpler than it is now. This is also a good solution allowing the cleanup code to be clean and consistent between 32bit and 64bit. The cleanup path in prepare_anon_dentry() is also switched around so we put the inode before the dentry allocation. This means we only have to call the cleanup handler for the filesystem's inode data once and can rely ->evict_inode() otherwise. Aside from having to have a bit of extra code for 32bit it actually ends up a nice cleanup for path_from_stashed() imho. Tested on both 32 and 64bit including error injection.

For 64bit systems this is pretty trivial to do. For 32bit it's slightly more annoying as we discussed but we simply add a dumb ida based allocator that gets used on 32bit. This gives the same guarantees about inode numbers on 64bit without any overflow risk. Practically, we'll never run into overflow issues because we're constrained by the number of processes that can exist on 32bit and by the number of open files that can exist on a 32bit system. On 64bit none of this matters and things are very simple. If 32bit also needs the uniqueness guarantee they can simply parse the contents of /proc/<pid>/fd/<nr>. The uniqueness guarantees have a variety of use-cases. One of the most obvious ones is that they will make pidfiles (or "pidfdfiles", I guess) reliable as the unique identifier can be placed into there that won't be reycled. Also a frequent request. Note, I took the chance and simplified path_from_stashed() even further. Instead of passing the inode number explicitly to path_from_stashed() we let the filesystem handle that internally. So path_from_stashed() ends up even simpler than it is now. This is also a good solution allowing the cleanup code to be clean and consistent between 32bit and 64bit. The cleanup path in prepare_anon_dentry() is also switched around so we put the inode before the dentry allocation. This means we only have to call the cleanup handler for the filesystem's inode data once and can rely ->evict_inode() otherwise. Aside from having to have a bit of extra code for 32bit it actually ends up a nice cleanup for path_from_stashed() imho. Tested on both 32 and 64bit including error injection.

pidfs: remove config option As Linus suggested this enables pidfs unconditionally. A key property to retain is the ability to compare pidfds by inode number (cf. [1]). That's extremely helpful just as comparing namespace file descriptors by inode number is. They are used in a variety of scenarios where they need to be compared, e.g., when receiving a pidfd via SO_PEERPIDFD from a socket to trivially authenticate a the sender and various other use-cases.

Rename superblock flags (MS_xyz -> SB_xyz) This is a pure automated search-and-replace of the internal kernel superblock flags. The s_flags are now called SB_*, with the names and the values for the moment mirroring the MS_* flags that they're equivalent to. Note how the MS_xyz flags are the ones passed to the mount system call, while the SB_xyz flags are what we then use in sb->s_flags. The script to do this was: # places to look in; re security/*: it generally should *not* be # touched (that stuff parses mount(2) arguments directly), but # there are two places where we really deal with superblock flags.
