2013-03-29SUNRPC: Consider qop when looking up pseudoflavorsChuck Lever
The NFSv4 SECINFO operation returns a list of security flavors that the server supports for a particular share. An NFSv4 client is supposed to pick a pseudoflavor it supports that corresponds to one of the flavors returned by the server. GSS flavors in this list have a GSS tuple that identify a specific GSS pseudoflavor. Currently our client ignores the GSS tuple's "qop" value. A matching pseudoflavor is chosen based only on the OID and service value. So far this omission has not had much effect on Linux. The NFSv4 protocol currently supports only one qop value: GSS_C_QOP_DEFAULT, also known as zero. However, if an NFSv4 server happens to return something other than zero in the qop field, our client won't notice. This could cause the client to behave in incorrect ways that could have security implications.

2013-03-29SUNRPC: Load GSS kernel module by OIDChuck Lever
The current GSS mech switch can find and load GSS pseudoflavor modules by name ("krb5") or pseudoflavor number ("390003"), but cannot find GSS modules by GSS tuple: [ "1.2.840.113554.1.2.2", GSS_C_QOP_DEFAULT, RPC_GSS_SVC_NONE ] This is important when dealing with a SECINFO request. A SECINFO reply contains a list of flavors the server supports for the requested export, but GSS flavors also have a GSS tuple that maps to a pseudoflavor (like 390003 for krb5). If the GSS module that supports the OID in the tuple is not loaded, our client is not able to load that module dynamically to support that pseudoflavor. Add a way for the GSS mech switch to load GSS pseudoflavor support by OID before searching for the pseudoflavor that matches the OID and service.

2013-03-29SUNRPC: Introduce rpcauth_get_pseudoflavor()Chuck Lever
A SECINFO reply may contain flavors whose kernel module is not yet loaded by the client's kernel. A new RPC client API, called rpcauth_get_pseudoflavor(), is introduced to do proper checking for support of a security flavor. When this API is invoked, the RPC client now tries to load the module for each flavor first before performing the "is this supported?" check. This means if a module is available on the client, but has not been loaded yet, it will be loaded and registered automatically when the SECINFO reply is processed. The new API can take a full GSS tuple (OID, QoP, and service). Previously only the OID and service were considered. nfs_find_best_sec() is updated to verify all flavors requested in a SECINFO reply, including AUTH_NULL and AUTH_UNIX. Previously these two flavors were simply assumed to be supported without consulting the RPC client. Note that the replaced version of nfs_find_best_sec() can return RPC_AUTH_MAXFLAVOR if the server returns a recognized OID but an unsupported "service" value. nfs_find_best_sec() now returns RPC_AUTH_UNIX in this case.

2013-03-29SUNRPC: Define rpcsec_gss_info structureChuck Lever
The NFSv4 SECINFO procedure returns a list of security flavors. Any GSS flavor also has a GSS tuple containing an OID, a quality-of- protection value, and a service value, which specifies a particular GSS pseudoflavor. For simplicity and efficiency, I'd like to return each GSS tuple from the NFSv4 SECINFO XDR decoder and pass it straight into the RPC client. Define a data structure that is visible to both the NFS client and the RPC client. Take structure and field names from the relevant standards to avoid confusion.

2013-03-29SUNRPC: Missing module alias for auth_rpcgss.koChuck Lever
Commit f344f6df "SUNRPC: Auto-load RPC authentication kernel modules", Mon Mar 20 13:44:08 2006, adds a request_module() call in rpcauth_create() to auto-load RPC security modules when a ULP tries to create a credential of that flavor. In rpcauth_create(), the name of the module to load is built like this: request_module("rpc-auth-%u", flavor); This means that for, say, RPC_AUTH_GSS, request_module() is looking for a module or alias called "rpc-auth-6". The GSS module is named "auth_rpcgss", and commit f344f6df does not add any new module aliases. There is also no such alias provided in /etc/modprobe.d on my system (Fedora 16). Without this alias, the GSS module is not loaded on demand. This is used by rpcauth_create(). The pseudoflavor_to_flavor() call can return RPC_AUTH_GSS, which is passed to request_module().

2013-03-06nfsd: fix krb5 handling of anonymous principalsJ. Bruce Fields
krb5 mounts started failing as of 683428fae8c73d7d7da0fa2e0b6beb4d8df4e808 "sunrpc: Update svcgss xdr handle to rpsec_contect cache". The problem is that mounts are usually done with some host principal which isn't normally mapped to any user, in which case svcgssd passes down uid -1, which the kernel is then expected to map to the export-specific anonymous uid or gid. The new uid_valid/gid_valid checks were therefore causing that downcall to fail. (Note the regression may not have been seen with older userspace that tended to map unknown principals to an anonymous id on their own rather than leaving it to the kernel.) Reviewed-by: "Eric W.

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.

I do my best to document that if you care about limiting your unprivileged users that when you have the user namespace support enabled you will need to enable memory control groups. There is a minor bug fix to prevent overflowing the stack if someone creates way too many user namespaces. The bulk of the changes are a continuation of the kuid/kgid push down work through the filesystems. These changes make using uids and gids typesafe which ensures that these filesystems are safe to use when multiple user namespaces are in use. The filesystems converted for 3.9 are ceph, 9p, afs, ocfs2, gfs2, ncpfs, nfs, nfsd, and cifs. The changes for these filesystems were a little more involved so I split the changes into smaller hopefully obviously correct changes. XFS is the only filesystem that remains.

If the socket is full, we're better off just waiting until it empties, or until the connection is broken. The reason why we generally don't want to time out is that the call to xprt->ops->release_xprt() will trigger a connection reset, which isn't helpful...

2013-02-21IB/core: Add "type 2" memory windows supportShani Michaeli
This patch enhances the IB core support for Memory Windows (MWs). MWs allow an application to have better/flexible control over remote access to memory. Two types of MWs are supported, with the second type having two flavors: Type 1 - associated with PD only Type 2A - associated with QPN only Type 2B - associated with PD and QPN Applications can allocate a MW once, and then repeatedly bind the MW to different ranges in MRs that are associated to the same PD. Type 1 windows are bound through a verb, while type 2 windows are bound by posting a work request. The 32-bit memory key is composed of a 24-bit index and an 8-bit key. The key is changed with each bind, thus allowing more control over the peer's use of the memory key. The changes introduced are the following: * add memory window type enum and a corresponding parameter to ib_alloc_mw. * type 2 memory window bind work request support. * create a struct that contains the common part of the bind verb struct ibv_mw_bind and the bind work request into a single struct. * add the ib_inc_rkey helper function to advance the tag part of an rkey. Consumer interface details: * new device capability flags IB_DEVICE_MEM_WINDOW_TYPE_2A and IB_DEVICE_MEM_WINDOW_TYPE_2B are added to indicate device support for these features. Devices can set either IB_DEVICE_MEM_WINDOW_TYPE_2A or IB_DEVICE_MEM_WINDOW_TYPE_2B if it supports type 2A or type 2B memory windows. It can set neither to indicate it doesn't support type 2 windows at all. * modify existing provides and consumers code to the new param of ib_alloc_mw and the ib_mw_bind_info structure Signed-off-by: Haggai Eran <haggaie@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Shani Michaeli <shanim@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <roland@purestorage.com>

Rewrite server shutdown to remove the assumption that there are no longer any threads running (no longer true, for example, when shutting down the service in one network namespace while it's still running in others). Do that by doing what we'd do in normal circumstances: just CLOSE each socket, then enqueue it. Since there may not be threads to handle the resulting queued xprts, also run a simplified version of the svc_recv() loop run by a server to clean up any closed xprts afterwards.

svc_age_temp_xprts expires xprts in a two-step process: first it takes the sv_lock and moves the xprts to expire off their server-wide list (sv_tempsocks or sv_permsocks) to a local list. Then it drops the sv_lock and enqueues and puts each one. I see no reason for this: svc_xprt_enqueue() will take sp_lock, but the sv_lock and sp_lock are not otherwise nested anywhere (and documentation at the top of this file claims it's correct to nest these with sp_lock inside.)

The reason to move cache_request() callback call from sunrpc_cache_pipe_upcall() to cache_read() is that this garantees, that cache access will be done userspace process context (only userspace process have proper root context). This is required for NFSd support in container: svc_export_request() (which is cache_request callback) calls d_path(), which, in turn, traverse dentry up to current->fs->root.
