Error out of ecryptfs_fsync() if filemap_write_and_wait() fails. Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@canonical.com> Cc: Paul Taysom <taysom@chromium.org> Cc: Olof Johansson <olofj@chromium.org> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v3.6+
2013-05-24ecryptfs: fixed msync to flush dataPaul Taysom
When msync is called on a memory mapped file, that data is not flushed to the disk. In Linux, msync calls fsync for the file. For ecryptfs, fsync just calls the lower level file system's fsync. Changed the ecryptfs fsync code to call filemap_write_and_wait before calling the lower level fsync.

2013-05-09eCryptfs: Use the ablkcipher crypto APITyler Hicks
Make the switch from the blkcipher kernel crypto interface to the ablkcipher interface. encrypt_scatterlist() and decrypt_scatterlist() now use the ablkcipher interface but, from the eCryptfs standpoint, still treat the crypto operation as a synchronous operation. They submit the async request and then wait until the operation is finished before they return. Most of the changes are contained inside those two functions. Despite waiting for the completion of the crypto operation, the ablkcipher interface provides performance increases in most cases when used on AES-NI capable hardware.

2013-03-03fs: Limit sys_mount to only request filesystem modules.Eric W. Biederman
Modify the request_module to prefix the file system type with "fs-" and add aliases to all of the filesystems that can be built as modules to match. A common practice is to build all of the kernel code and leave code that is not commonly needed as modules, with the result that many users are exposed to any bug anywhere in the kernel. Looking for filesystems with a fs- prefix limits the pool of possible modules that can be loaded by mount to just filesystems trivially making things safer with no real cost. Using aliases means user space can control the policy of which filesystem modules are auto-loaded by editing /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf with blacklist and alias directives. Allowing simple, safe, well understood work-arounds to known problematic software. This also addresses a rare but unfortunate problem where the filesystem name is not the same as it's module name and module auto-loading would not work. While writing this patch I saw a handful of such cases. The most significant being autofs that lives in the module autofs4. This is relevant to user namespaces because we can reach the request module in get_fs_type() without having any special permissions, and people get uncomfortable when a user specified string (in this case the filesystem type) goes all of the way to request_module. After having looked at this issue I don't think there is any particular reason to perform any filtering or permission checks beyond making it clear in the module request that we want a filesystem module. The common pattern in the kernel is to call request_module() without regards to the users permissions. In general all a filesystem module does once loaded is call register_filesystem() and go to sleep. Which means there is not much attack surface exposed by loading a filesytem module unless the filesystem is mounted. In a user namespace filesystems are not mounted unless .fs_flags = FS_USERNS_MOUNT, which most filesystems do not set today.

2013-02-27hlist: drop the node parameter from iteratorsSasha Levin
I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member) The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter: hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member) Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate. Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required: - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones. - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this was modified to use 'obj->member' instead. - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator properly, so those had to be fixed up manually. The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here: @@ iterator name hlist_for_each_entry, hlist_for_each_entry_continue, hlist_for_each_entry_from, hlist_for_each_entry_rcu, hlist_for_each_entry_rcu_bh, hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh, for_each_busy_worker, ax25_uid_for_each, ax25_for_each, inet_bind_bucket_for_each, sctp_for_each_hentry, sk_for_each, sk_for_each_rcu, sk_for_each_from, sk_for_each_safe, sk_for_each_bound, hlist_for_each_entry_safe, hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu, nr_neigh_for_each, nr_neigh_for_each_safe, nr_node_for_each, nr_node_for_each_safe, for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp, for_each_gfn_sp, for_each_host; type T; expression a,c,d,e; identifier b; statement S; @@ -T b; <+... when != b ( hlist_for_each_entry(a, - b, c, d) S | hlist_for_each_entry_continue(a, - b, c) S | hlist_for_each_entry_from(a, - b, c) S | hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(a, - b, c, d) S | hlist_for_each_entry_rcu_bh(a, - b, c, d) S | hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh(a, - b, c) S | for_each_busy_worker(a, c, - b, d) S | ax25_uid_for_each(a, - b, c) S | ax25_for_each(a, - b, c) S | inet_bind_bucket_for_each(a, - b, c) S | sctp_for_each_hentry(a, - b, c) S | sk_for_each(a, - b, c) S | sk_for_each_rcu(a, - b, c) S | sk_for_each_from -(a, b) +(a) S + sk_for_each_from(a) S | sk_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | sk_for_each_bound(a, - b, c) S | hlist_for_each_entry_safe(a, - b, c, d, e) S | hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu(a, - b, c) S | nr_neigh_for_each(a, - b, c) S | nr_neigh_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | nr_node_for_each(a, - b, c) S | nr_node_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | - for_each_gfn_sp(a, c, d, b) S + for_each_gfn_sp(a, c, d) S | - for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp(a, c, d, b) S + for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp(a, c, d) S | for_each_host(a, - b, c) S | for_each_host_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | for_each_mesh_entry(a, - b, c, d) S ) ...+> [akpm@linux-foundation.org: drop bogus change from net/ipv4/raw.c] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: drop bogus hunk from net/ipv6/raw.c] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: checkpatch fixes] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix warnings] [akpm@linux-foudnation.org: redo intrusive kvm changes] Tested-by: Peter Senna Tschudin <peter.senna@gmail.com> Acked-by: Paul E.

2012-11-07eCryptfs: Avoid unnecessary disk read and data decryption during writingLi Wang
ecryptfs_write_begin grabs a page from page cache for writing. If the page contains invalid data, or data older than the counterpart on the disk, eCryptfs will read out the corresponing data from the disk into the page, decrypt them, then perform writing. However, for this page, if the length of the data to be written into is equal to page size, that means the whole page of data will be overwritten, in which case, it does not matter whatever the data were before, it is beneficial to perform writing directly rather than bothering to read and decrypt first. With this optimization, according to our test on a machine with Intel Core 2 Duo processor, iozone 'write' operation on an existing file with write size being multiple of page size will enjoy a steady 3x speedup.

As it is, we have a situation when file_table.c is about handling of struct file and file.c is about handling of descriptor tables; the reasons are historical - file_table.c used to be about a static array of struct file we used to have way back). A lot of stray ends got cleaned up and converted to saner primitives, disgusting mess in android/binder.c is still disgusting, but at least doesn't poke so much in descriptor table guts anymore. A bunch of relatively minor races got fixed in process, plus an ext4 struct file leak. - related thing - fget_light() partially unuglified; see fdget() in there (and yes, it generates the code as good as we used to have). - also related - bits of Cyrill's procfs stuff that got entangled into that work; _not_ all of it, just the initial move to fs/proc/fd.c and switch of fdinfo to seq_file. - Alex's fs/coredump.c spiltoff - the same story, had been easier to take that commit than mess with conflicts.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace Pull user namespace changes from Eric Biederman: "This is a mostly modest set of changes to enable basic user namespace support. This allows the code to code to compile with user namespaces enabled and removes the assumption there is only the initial user namespace. Everything is converted except for the most complex of the filesystems: autofs4, 9p, afs, ceph, cifs, coda, fuse, gfs2, ncpfs, nfs, ocfs2 and xfs as those patches need a bit more review. The strategy is to push kuid_t and kgid_t values are far down into subsystems and filesystems as reasonable. Leaving the make_kuid and from_kuid operations to happen at the edge of userspace, as the values come off the disk, and as the values come in from the network. Letting compile type incompatible compile errors (present when user namespaces are enabled) guide me to find the issues. The most tricky areas have been the places where we had an implicit union of uid and gid values and were storing them in an unsigned int. Those places were converted into explicit unions. I made certain to handle those places with simple trivial patches. Out of that work I discovered we have generic interfaces for storing quota by projid. I had never heard of the project identifiers before. Adding full user namespace support for project identifiers accounts for most of the code size growth in my git tree. Ultimately there will be work to relax privlige checks from "capable(FOO)" to "ns_capable(user_ns, FOO)" where it is safe allowing root in a user names to do those things that today we only forbid to non-root users because it will confuse suid root applications. While I was pushing kuid_t and kgid_t changes deep into the audit code I made a few other cleanups. I capitalized on the fact we process netlink messages in the context of the message sender. I removed usage of NETLINK_CRED, and started directly using current->tty. Some of these patches have also made it into maintainer trees, with no problems from identical code from different trees showing up in linux-next.

After calling into the lower filesystem to do a rename, the lower target inode's attributes were not copied up to the eCryptfs target inode. This resulted in the eCryptfs target inode staying around, rather than being evicted, because i_nlink was not updated for the eCryptfs inode. This also meant that eCryptfs didn't do the final iput() on the lower target inode so it stayed around, as well. This would result in a failure to free up space occupied by the target file in the rename() operation. Both target inodes would eventually be evicted when the eCryptfs filesystem was unmounted. This patch calls fsstack_copy_attr_all() after the lower filesystem does its ->rename() so that important inode attributes, such as i_nlink, are updated at the eCryptfs layer. ecryptfs_evict_inode() is now called and eCryptfs can drop its final reference on the lower inode. http://launchpad.net/bugs/561129 Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@canonical.com> Tested-by: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> [2.6.39+]
2012-09-14eCryptfs: Call lower ->flush() from ecryptfs_flush()Tyler Hicks
Since eCryptfs only calls fput() on the lower file in ecryptfs_release(), eCryptfs should call the lower filesystem's ->flush() from ecryptfs_flush(). If the lower filesystem implements ->flush(), then eCryptfs should try to flush out any dirty pages prior to calling the lower ->flush(). If the lower filesystem does not implement ->flush(), then eCryptfs has no need to do anything in ecryptfs_flush() since dirty pages are now written out to the lower filesystem in ecryptfs_release().

Fixes a regression caused by: 821f749 eCryptfs: Revert to a writethrough cache model That patch reverted some code (specifically, 32001d6f) that was necessary to properly handle open() -> mmap() -> close() -> dirty pages -> munmap(), because the lower file could be closed before the dirty pages are written out. Rather than reapplying 32001d6f, this approach is a better way of ensuring that the lower file is still open in order to handle writing out the dirty pages. It is called from ecryptfs_release(), while we have a lock on the lower file pointer, just before the lower file gets the final fput() and we overwrite the pointer. https://launchpad.net/bugs/1047261 Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@canonical.com> Reported-by: Artemy Tregubenko <me@arty.name> Tested-by: Artemy Tregubenko <me@arty.name> Tested-by: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

The issue occurs when eCryptfs is mounted with a cipher supported by the crypto subsystem but not by eCryptfs. The mount succeeds and an error does not occur until a write. This change checks for eCryptfs cipher support at mount time.

2012-07-13eCryptfs: Revert to a writethrough cache modelTyler Hicks
A change was made about a year ago to get eCryptfs to better utilize its page cache during writes. The idea was to do the page encryption operations during page writeback, rather than doing them when initially writing into the page cache, to reduce the number of page encryption operations during sequential writes. This meant that the encrypted page would only be written to the lower filesystem during page writeback, which was a change from how eCryptfs had previously wrote to the lower filesystem in ecryptfs_write_end(). The change caused a few eCryptfs-internal bugs that were shook out. Unfortunately, more grave side effects have been identified that will force changes outside of eCryptfs. Because the lower filesystem isn't consulted until page writeback, eCryptfs has no way to pass lower write errors (ENOSPC, mainly) back to userspace. Additionaly, it was reported that quotas could be bypassed because of the way eCryptfs may sometimes open the lower filesystem using a privileged kthread. It would be nice to resolve the latest issues, but it is best if the eCryptfs commits be reverted to the old behavior in the meantime.

2012-07-08eCryptfs: Initialize empty lower files when opening themTyler Hicks
Historically, eCryptfs has only initialized lower files in the ecryptfs_create() path. Lower file initialization is the act of writing the cryptographic metadata from the inode's crypt_stat to the header of the file. The ecryptfs_open() path already expects that metadata to be in the header of the file. A number of users have reported empty lower files in beneath their eCryptfs mounts. Most of the causes for those empty files being left around have been addressed, but the presence of empty files causes problems due to the lack of proper cryptographic metadata. To transparently solve this problem, this patch initializes empty lower files in the ecryptfs_open() error path. If the metadata is unreadable due to the lower inode size being 0, plaintext passthrough support is not in use, and the metadata is stored in the header of the file (as opposed to the user.ecryptfs extended attribute), the lower file will be initialized. The number of nested conditionals in ecryptfs_open() was getting out of hand, so a helper function was created. To avoid the same nested conditional problem, the conditional logic was reversed inside of the helper function. https://launchpad.net/bugs/911507 Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@canonical.com> Cc: John Johansen <john.johansen@canonical.com> Cc: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>
2012-07-08eCryptfs: Unlink lower inode when ecryptfs_create() failsTyler Hicks
ecryptfs_create() creates a lower inode, allocates an eCryptfs inode, initializes the eCryptfs inode and cryptographic metadata attached to the inode, and then writes the metadata to the header of the file. If an error was to occur after the lower inode was created, an empty lower file would be left in the lower filesystem. This is a problem because ecryptfs_open() refuses to open any lower files which do not have the appropriate metadata in the file header. This patch properly unlinks the lower inode when an error occurs in the later stages of ecryptfs_create(), reducing the chance that an empty lower file will be left in the lower filesystem. https://launchpad.net/bugs/872905 Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@canonical.com> Cc: John Johansen <john.johansen@canonical.com> Cc: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>
