new method: ->get_link(); replacement of ->follow_link(). The differences
are:
* inode and dentry are passed separately
* might be called both in RCU and non-RCU mode;
the former is indicated by passing it a NULL dentry.
* when called that way it isn't allowed to block
and should return ERR_PTR(-ECHILD) if it needs to be called
in non-RCU mode.
It's a flagday change - the old method is gone, all in-tree instances
converted. Conversion isn't hard; said that, so far very few instances
do not immediately bail out when called in RCU mode. That'll change
in the next commits.

it until 4.5.
The remaining change by Dirk Steinmetz wich fixes both Gentoo and
Ubuntu containers allows hardlinks if we have the appropriate

user and create the hardlink"
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace:
namei: permit linking with CAP_FOWNER in userns
Attempting to hardlink to an unsafe file (e.g. a setuid binary) from
within an unprivileged user namespace fails, even if CAP_FOWNER is held
within the namespace. This may cause various failures, such as a gentoo
installation within a lxc container failing to build and install specific
packages.
This change permits hardlinking of files owned by mapped uids, if
CAP_FOWNER is held for that namespace. Furthermore, it improves consistency
by using the existing inode_owner_or_capable(), which is aware of
namespaced capabilities as of 23adbe12ef ("fs,userns: Change
inode_capable to capable_wrt_inode_uidgid").

When upgrading a file dpkg creates a hard link to the old file to back

Unfortunately, we'd pulled the test too far up and ran afoul of

stable from the RCU point of view (and we might be on UP, etc), but
stale from the remote fs point of view. If ->d_revalidate() returns
"it's actually stale", dentry gets thrown away and the original code
wouldn't even have looked at its ->d_flags.
What we need is to check ->d_flags where 766c4cbfac does (prior to
->d_seq validation) but only use the result in cases where we do not
discard this dentry outright"

In rare cases a directory can be renamed out from under a bind mount.
In those cases without special handling it becomes possible to walk up
the directory tree to the root dentry of the filesystem and down
from the root dentry to every other file or directory on the filesystem.
Like division by zero .. from an unconnected path can not be given
a useful semantic as there is no predicting at which path component
the code will realize it is unconnected. We certainly can not match
the current behavior as the current behavior is a security hole.
Therefore when encounting .. when following an unconnected path
return -ENOENT.
- Add a function path_connected to verify path->dentry is reachable
from path->mnt.mnt_root. AKA to validate that rename did not do
something nasty to the bind mount.
To avoid races path_connected must be called after following a path
component to it's next path component.

In RCU mode we might end up with dentry evicted just we check
that it's a directory. In such case we should return ECHILD
rather than ENOTDIR, so that pathwalk would be retries in non-RCU
mode.
Breakage had been introduced in commit b18825a - prior to that
we were looking at nd->inode, which had been fetched before
verifying that ->d_seq was still valid. That form of check
would only be satisfied if at some point the pathname prefix
would indeed have resolved to a non-directory. The fix consists
of checking ->d_seq after we'd run into a non-directory dentry,
and failing with ECHILD in case of mismatch.

Otherwise we are risking a hard error where nonlazy restart would be the right
thing to do; it's a very narrow race with mount --move and most of the time it
ends up being completely harmless, but it's possible to construct a case when
we'll get a bogus hard error instead of falling back to non-lazy walk...
For one thing, when crossing _into_ overmount of parent we need to check for
mount_lock bumps when we get NULL from __lookup_mnt() as well.
For another, and less exotically, we need to make sure that the data fetched
in follow_up_rcu() had been consistent. ->mnt_mountpoint is pinned for as
long as it is a mountpoint, but we need to check mount_lock after fetching

inode_follow_link now takes an inode and rcu flag as well as the
dentry.
inode is used in preference to d_backing_inode(dentry), particularly
in RCU-walk mode.
selinux_inode_follow_link() gets dentry_has_perm() and
inode_has_perm() open-coded into it so that it can call
avc_has_perm_flags() in way that is safe if LOOKUP_RCU is set.
Calling avc_has_perm_flags() with rcu_read_lock() held means
that when avc_has_perm_noaudit calls avc_compute_av(), the attempt
to rcu_read_unlock() before calling security_compute_av() will not
actually drop the RCU read-lock.
However as security_compute_av() is completely in a read_lock()ed

task_struct currently contains two ad-hoc members for use by the VFS:
link_count and total_link_count. These are only interesting to fs/namei.c,
so exposing them explicitly is poor layering. Incidentally, link_count
isn't used anymore, so it can just die.
This patches replaces those with a single pointer to 'struct nameidata'.
This structure represents the current filename lookup of which
there can only be one per process, and is a natural place to
store total_link_count.
This will allow the current "nameidata" argument to all
follow_link operations to be removed as current->nameidata
can be used instead in the _very_ few instances that care about
it at all.
As there are occasional circumstances where pathname lookup can
recurse, such as through kern_path_locked, we always save and old
current->nameidata (if there is one) when setting a new value, and
make sure any active link_counts are preserved.
follow_mount and follow_automount now get a 'struct nameidata *'
rather than 'int flags' so that they can directly access
total_link_count, rather than going through 'current'.

Fetching ->d_inode, verifying ->d_seq and finding d_is_negative() to
be true does *not* mean that inode we'd fetched had been NULL - that
holds only while ->d_seq is still unchanged.
Shift d_is_negative() checks into lookup_fast() prior to ->d_seq
verification.

Calling unlazy_walk() in walk_component() and do_last() when we find
a symlink that needs to be followed doesn't acquire a reference to vfsmount.
That's fine when the symlink is on the same vfsmount as the parent directory
(which is almost always the case), but it's not always true - one _can_
manage to bind a symlink on top of something. And in such cases we end up
with excessive mntput().

Make pathwalk use d_is_reg() rather than S_ISREG() to determine whether to
honour O_TRUNC. Since this occurs after complete_walk(), the dentry type
field cannot change and the inode pointer cannot change as we hold a ref on
the dentry, so this should be safe.

Where we have:
if (!dentry->d_inode || d_is_negative(dentry)) {
type constructions in pathwalk we should be able to eliminate the check of
d_inode and rely solely on the result of d_is_negative() or d_is_positive().
What we do have to take care to do is to read d_inode after calling a
d_is_xxx() typecheck function to get the barriering right.

Convert the following where appropriate:
(1) S_ISLNK(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_symlink(dentry).
(2) S_ISREG(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_reg(dentry).
(3) S_ISDIR(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_dir(dentry). This is actually more
complicated than it appears as some calls should be converted to
d_can_lookup() instead. The difference is whether the directory in
question is a real dir with a ->lookup op or whether it's a fake dir with
a ->d_automount op.
In some circumstances, we can subsume checks for dentry->d_inode not being
NULL into this, provided we the code isn't in a filesystem that expects
d_inode to be NULL if the dirent really *is* negative (ie. if we're going to
use d_inode() rather than d_backing_inode() to get the inode pointer).
Note that the dentry type field may be set to something other than
DCACHE_MISS_TYPE when d_inode is NULL in the case of unionmount, where the VFS
manages the fall-through from a negative dentry to a lower layer. In such a
case, the dentry type of the negative union dentry is set to the same as the
type of the lower dentry.
However, if you know d_inode is not NULL at the call site, then you can use
the d_is_xxx() functions even in a filesystem.
There is one further complication: a 0,0 chardev dentry may be labelled
DCACHE_WHITEOUT_TYPE rather than DCACHE_SPECIAL_TYPE. Strictly, this was
intended for special directory entry types that don't have attached inodes.

In order to ensure that filenames are not released before the audit
subsystem is done with the strings there are a number of hacks built
into the fs and audit subsystems around getname() and putname(). To
say these hacks are "ugly" would be kind.
This patch removes the filename hackery in favor of a more
conventional reference count based approach. The diffstat below tells
most of the story; lots of audit/fs specific code is replaced with a
traditional reference count based approach that is easily understood,
even by those not familiar with the audit and/or fs subsystems.

There are several areas in the kernel that create temporary filename
objects using the following pattern:
int func(const char *name)
{
struct filename *file = { .name = name };
...
return 0;
}
... which for the most part works okay, but it causes havoc within the
audit subsystem as the filename object does not persist beyond the
lifetime of the function. This patch converts all of these temporary
filename objects into proper filename objects using getname_kernel()
and putname() which ensure that the filename object persists until the
audit subsystem is finished with it.

This patchset adds execveat(2) for x86, and is derived from Meredydd
Luff's patch from Sept 2012 (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/9/11/528).
The primary aim of adding an execveat syscall is to allow an
implementation of fexecve(3) that does not rely on the /proc filesystem,
at least for executables (rather than scripts). The current glibc version
of fexecve(3) is implemented via /proc, which causes problems in sandboxed
or otherwise restricted environments.
Given the desire for a /proc-free fexecve() implementation, HPA suggested
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/7/11/556) that an execveat(2) syscall would be
an appropriate generalization.
Also, having a new syscall means that it can take a flags argument without
back-compatibility concerns. The current implementation just defines the
AT_EMPTY_PATH and AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW flags, but other flags could be
added in future -- for example, flags for new namespaces (as suggested at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/7/11/474).
Related history:
- https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/12/27/123 is an example of someone
realizing that fexecve() is likely to fail in a chroot environment.
- http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=514043 covered
documenting the /proc requirement of fexecve(3) in its manpage, to
"prevent other people from wasting their time".
- https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=241609 described a
problem where a process that did setuid() could not fexecve()
because it no longer had access to /proc/self/fd; this has since
been fixed.
This patch (of 4):
Add a new execveat(2) system call. execveat() is to execve() as openat()
is to open(): it takes a file descriptor that refers to a directory, and
resolves the filename relative to that.
In addition, if the filename is empty and AT_EMPTY_PATH is specified,
execveat() executes the file to which the file descriptor refers. This
replicates the functionality of fexecve(), which is a system call in other
UNIXen, but in Linux glibc it depends on opening "/proc/self/fd/<fd>" (and
so relies on /proc being mounted).
The filename fed to the executed program as argv[0] (or the name of the
script fed to a script interpreter) will be of the form "/dev/fd/<fd>"
(for an empty filename) or "/dev/fd/<fd>/<filename>", effectively
reflecting how the executable was found. This does however mean that
execution of a script in a /proc-less environment won't work; also, script
execution via an O_CLOEXEC file descriptor fails (as the file will not be
accessible after exec).
