setns support for the mount namespace is a little tricky as an
arbitrary decision must be made about what to set fs->root and
fs->pwd to, as there is no expectation of a relationship between
the two mount namespaces.  Therefore I arbitrarily find the root
mount point, and follow every mount on top of it to find the top
of the mount stack.  Then I set fs->root and fs->pwd to that
location.  The topmost root of the mount stack seems like a
reasonable place to be.

Bind mount support for the mount namespace inodes has the
possibility of creating circular dependencies between mount
namespaces.  Circular dependencies can result in loops that
prevent mount namespaces from every being freed.  I avoid
creating those circular dependencies by adding a sequence number
to the mount namespace and require all bind mounts be of a
younger mount namespace into an older mount namespace.

Add a helper function proc_ns_inode so it is possible to
detect when we are attempting to bind mound a namespace inode.

Unsharing of the pid namespace unlike unsharing of other namespaces
does not take affect immediately.  Instead it affects the children
created with fork and clone.  The first of these children becomes the init
process of the new pid namespace, the rest become oddball children
of pid 0.  From the point of view of the new pid namespace the process
that created it is pid 0, as it's pid does not map.

A couple of different semantics were considered but this one was
settled on because it is easy to implement and it is usable from
pam modules.  The core reasons for the existence of unshare.

I took a survey of the callers of pam modules and the following
appears to be a representative sample of their logic.
{
	setup stuff include pam
	child = fork();
	if (!child) {
		setuid()
                exec /bin/bash
        }
        waitpid(child);

        pam and other cleanup
}

As you can see there is a fork to create the unprivileged user
space process.  Which means that the unprivileged user space
process will appear as pid 1 in the new pid namespace.  Further
most login processes do not cope with extraneous children which
means shifting the duty of reaping extraneous child process to
the creator of those extraneous children makes the system more
comprehensible.

The practical reason for this set of pid namespace semantics is
that it is simple to implement and verify they work correctly.
Whereas an implementation that requres changing the struct
pid on a process comes with a lot more races and pain.  Not
the least of which is that glibc caches getpid().

These semantics are implemented by having two notions
of the pid namespace of a proces.  There is task_active_pid_ns
which is the pid namspace the process was created with
and the pid namespace that all pids are presented to
that process in.  The task_active_pid_ns is stored
in the struct pid of the task.

Then there is the pid namespace that will be used for children
that pid namespace is stored in task->nsproxy->pid_ns.

Instead of setting child_reaper and SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE one way
for the system init process, and another way for pid namespace
init processes test pid->nr == 1 and use the same code for both.

For the global init this results in SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE being set
much earlier in the initialization process.

This is a small cleanup and it paves the way for allowing unshare and
enter of the pid namespace as that path like our global init also will
not set CLONE_NEWPID.

- Pid namespaces are designed to be inescapable so verify that the
  passed in pid namespace is a child of the currently active
  pid namespace or the currently active pid namespace itself.

  Allowing the currently active pid namespace is important so
  the effects of an earlier setns can be cancelled.

task_active_pid_ns(current) != current->ns_proxy->pid_ns will
soon be allowed to support unshare and setns.

The definition of creating a child pid namespace when
task_active_pid_ns(current) != current->ns_proxy->pid_ns could be that
we create a child pid namespace of current->ns_proxy->pid_ns.  However
that leads to strange cases like trying to have a single process be
init in multiple pid namespaces, which is racy and hard to think
about.

The definition of creating a child pid namespace when
task_active_pid_ns(current) != current->ns_proxy->pid_ns could be that
we create a child pid namespace of task_active_pid_ns(current).  While
that seems less racy it does not provide any utility.

Therefore define the semantics of creating a child pid namespace when
task_active_pid_ns(current) != current->ns_proxy->pid_ns to be that the
pid namespace creation fails.  That is easy to implement and easy
to think about.

Looking at pid_ns->nr_hashed is a bit simpler and it works for

Set nr_hashed to -1 just before we schedule the work to cleanup proc.
Test nr_hashed just before we hash a new pid and if nr_hashed is < 0
fail.

This guaranteees that processes never enter a pid namespaces after we
have cleaned up the state to support processes in a pid namespace.

Currently sending SIGKILL to all of the process in a pid namespace as
init exists gives us this guarantee but we need something a little
stronger to support unsharing and joining a pid namespace.

Track the number of pids in the proc hash table.  When the number of
pids goes to 0 schedule work to unmount the kernel mount of proc.

Move the mount of proc into alloc_pid when we allocate the pid for
init.

Remove the surprising calls of pid_ns_release proc in fork and
proc_flush_task.  Those code paths really shouldn't know about proc
namespace implementation details and people have demonstrated several
times that finding and understanding those code paths is difficult and
non-obvious.

Because of the call path detach pid is alwasy called with the
rtnl_lock held free_pid is not allowed to sleep, so the work to
unmounting proc is moved to a work queue.  This has the side benefit
of not blocking the entire world waiting for the unnecessary
rcu_barrier in deactivate_locked_super.

In the process of making the code clear and obvious this fixes a bug
reported by Gao feng <gaofeng@cn.fujitsu.com> where we would leak a
mount of proc during clone(CLONE_NEWPID|CLONE_NEWNET) if copy_pid_ns
succeeded and copy_net_ns failed.

The expressions tsk->nsproxy->pid_ns and task_active_pid_ns
aka ns_of_pid(task_pid(tsk)) should have the same number of
cache line misses with the practical difference that
ns_of_pid(task_pid(tsk)) is released later in a processes life.

Furthermore by using task_active_pid_ns it becomes trivial
to write an unshare implementation for the the pid namespace.

So I have used task_active_pid_ns everywhere I can.

In fork since the pid has not yet been attached to the
process I use ns_of_pid, to achieve the same effect.

I had visions at one point of splitting proc into two filesystems.  If
that had happened proc/self being the the part of proc that actually deals
with pids would have been a nice cleanup.  As it is proc/self requires
a lot of unnecessary infrastructure for a single file.

The only user visible change is that a mounted /proc for a pid namespace
that is dead now shows a broken proc symlink, instead of being completely
invisible.  I don't think anyone will notice or care.

The user namespace which creates a new network namespace owns that
namespace and all resources created in it.  This way we can target
capability checks for privileged operations against network resources to
the user_ns which created the network namespace in which the resource
lives.  Privilege to the user namespace which owns the network
namespace, or any parent user namespace thereof, provides the same
privilege to the network resource.

Use kuid_t and kgid_t in struct fuse_conn and struct fuse_mount_data.

The connection between between a fuse filesystem and a fuse daemon is
established when a fuse filesystem is mounted and provided with a file
descriptor the fuse daemon created by opening /dev/fuse.

For now restrict the communication of uids and gids between the fuse
filesystem and the fuse daemon to the initial user namespace.  Enforce
this by verifying the file descriptor passed to the mount of fuse was
opened in the initial user namespace.  Ensuring the mount happens in
the initial user namespace is not necessary as mounts from non-initial
user namespaces are not yet allowed.

In fuse_req_init_context convert the currrent fsuid and fsgid into the
initial user namespace for the request that will be sent to the fuse
daemon.

In fuse_fill_attr convert the uid and gid passed from the fuse daemon
from the initial user namespace into kuids and kgids.

In iattr_to_fattr called from fuse_setattr convert kuids and kgids
into the uids and gids in the initial user namespace before passing
them to the fuse filesystem.

In fuse_change_attributes_common called from fuse_dentry_revalidate,
fuse_permission, fuse_geattr, and fuse_setattr, and fuse_iget convert
the uid and gid from the fuse daemon into a kuid and a kgid to store
on the fuse inode.

By default fuse mounts are restricted to task whose uid, suid, and
euid matches the fuse user_id and whose gid, sgid, and egid matches
the fuse group id.  Convert the user_id and group_id mount options
into kuids and kgids at mount time, and use uid_eq and gid_eq to
compare the in fuse_allow_task.

Use kuid_t and kgid_t in struct autofs_info and struct autofs_wait_queue.

When creating directories and symlinks default the uid and gid of
the mount requester to the global root uid and gid.  autofs4_wait
will update these fields when a mount is requested.

When generating autofsv5 packets report the uid and gid of the mount
requestor in user namespace of the process that opened the pipe,
reporting unmapped uids and gids as overflowuid and overflowgid.

In autofs_dev_ioctl_requester return the uid and gid of the last mount
requester converted into the calling processes user namespace.  When the
uid or gid don't map return overflowuid and overflowgid as appropriate,
allowing failure to find a mount requester to be distinguished from
failure to map a mount requester.

The uid and gid mount options specifying the user and group of the
root autofs inode are converted into kuid and kgid as they are parsed
defaulting to the current uid and current gid of the process that
mounts autofs.

Mounting of autofs for the present remains confined to processes in
the initial user namespace.

This is an optimization. The RCU-protected region is very small, so
there will be no latency problems if we disable preempt in this region.

So we use rcu_read_lock_sched / rcu_read_unlock_sched that translates
to preempt_disable / preempt_disable. It is smaller (and supposedly

In commit 800179c9 ("This adds symlink and hardlink restrictions to
the Linux VFS"), the new link protections were enabled by default, in
the hope that no actual application would care, despite it being
technically against legacy UNIX (and documented POSIX) behavior.

However, it does turn out to break some applications.  It's rare, and
it's unfortunate, but it's unacceptable to break existing systems, so
we'll have to default to legacy behavior.

In particular, it has broken the way AFD distributes files, see

  http://www.dwd.de/AFD/

along with some legacy scripts.

Distributions can end up setting this at initrd time or in system
scripts: if you have security problems due to link attacks during your
early boot sequence, you have bigger problems than some kernel sysctl
setting. Do:

	echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/protected_symlinks
	echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/protected_hardlinks

to re-enable the link protections.

Alternatively, we may at some point introduce a kernel config option
that sets these kinds of "more secure but not traditional" behavioural
options automatically.
