fuse: fix bad inode

2020-12-10T14:33:14Z

Jan Kara's analysis of the syzbot report (edited): The reproducer opens a directory on FUSE filesystem, it then attaches dnotify mark to the open directory. After that a fuse_do_getattr() call finds that attributes returned by the server are inconsistent, and calls make_bad_inode() which, among other things does: inode->i_mode = S_IFREG; This then confuses dnotify which doesn't tear down its structures properly and eventually crashes. Avoid calling make_bad_inode() on a live inode: switch to a private flag on the fuse inode. Also add the test to ops which the bad_inode_ops would have caught. This bug goes back to the initial merge of fuse in 2.6.14... Reported-by: syzbot+f427adf9324b92652ccc@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi Tested-by: Jan Kara Cc:

fuse: support SB_NOSEC flag to improve write performance

2020-11-11T16:22:33Z

Virtiofs can be slow with small writes if xattr are enabled and we are doing cached writes (No direct I/O). Ganesh Mahalingam noticed this. Some debugging showed that file_remove_privs() is called in cached write path on every write. And everytime it calls security_inode_need_killpriv() which results in call to __vfs_getxattr(XATTR_NAME_CAPS). And this goes to file server to fetch xattr. This extra round trip for every write slows down writes tremendously. Normally to avoid paying this penalty on every write, vfs has the notion of caching this information in inode (S_NOSEC). So vfs sets S_NOSEC, if filesystem opted for it using super block flag SB_NOSEC. And S_NOSEC is cleared when setuid/setgid bit is set or when security xattr is set on inode so that next time a write happens, we check inode again for clearing setuid/setgid bits as well clear any security.capability xattr. This seems to work well for local file systems but for remote file systems it is possible that VFS does not have full picture and a different client sets setuid/setgid bit or security.capability xattr on file and that means VFS information about S_NOSEC on another client will be stale. So for remote filesystems SB_NOSEC was disabled by default. Commit 9e1f1de02c22 ("more conservative S_NOSEC handling") mentioned that these filesystems can still make use of SB_NOSEC as long as they clear S_NOSEC when they are refreshing inode attriutes from server. So this patch tries to enable SB_NOSEC on fuse (regular fuse as well as virtiofs). And clear SB_NOSEC when we are refreshing inode attributes. This is enabled only if server supports FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV_V2. This says that server will clear setuid/setgid/security.capability on chown/truncate/write as apporpriate. This should provide tighter coherency because now suid/sgid/ security.capability will be cleared even if fuse client cache has not seen these attrs. Basic idea is that fuse client will trigger suid/sgid/security.capability clearing based on its attr cache. But even if cache has gone stale, it is fine because FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV_V2 will make sure WRITE clear suid/sgid/security.capability. We make this change only if server supports FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV_V2. This should make sure that existing filesystems which might be relying on seucurity.capability always being queried from server are not impacted. This tighter coherency relies on WRITE showing up on server (and not being cached in guest). So writeback_cache mode will not provide that tight coherency and it is not recommended to use two together. Having said that it might work reasonably well for lot of use cases. This change improves random write performance very significantly. Running virtiofsd with cache=auto and following fio command: fio --ioengine=libaio --direct=1 --name=test --filename=/mnt/virtiofs/random_read_write.fio --bs=4k --iodepth=64 --size=4G --readwrite=randwrite Bandwidth increases from around 50MB/s to around 250MB/s as a result of applying this patch. So improvement is very significant. Link: https://github.com/kata-containers/runtime/issues/2815 Reported-by: "Mahalingam, Ganesh" Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi

fuse: add a flag FUSE_OPEN_KILL_SUIDGID for open() request

2020-11-11T16:22:33Z

With FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV_V2 support, server will need to kill suid/sgid/ security.capability on open(O_TRUNC), if server supports FUSE_ATOMIC_O_TRUNC. But server needs to kill suid/sgid only if caller does not have CAP_FSETID. Given server does not have this information, client needs to send this info to server. So add a flag FUSE_OPEN_KILL_SUIDGID to fuse_open_in request which tells server to kill suid/sgid (only if group execute is set). This flag is added to the FUSE_OPEN request, as well as the FUSE_CREATE request if the create was non-exclusive, since that might result in an existing file being opened/truncated.

fuse: don't send ATTR_MODE to kill suid/sgid for handle_killpriv_v2

2020-11-11T16:22:33Z

If client does a write() on a suid/sgid file, VFS will first call fuse_setattr() with ATTR_KILL_S[UG]ID set. This requires sending setattr to file server with ATTR_MODE set to kill suid/sgid. But to do that client needs to know latest mode otherwise it is racy. To reduce the race window, current code first call fuse_do_getattr() to get latest ->i_mode and then resets suid/sgid bits and sends rest to server with setattr(ATTR_MODE). This does not reduce the race completely but narrows race window significantly. With fc->handle_killpriv_v2 enabled, it should be possible to remove this race completely. Do not kill suid/sgid with ATTR_MODE at all. It will be killed by server when WRITE request is sent to server soon. This is similar to fc->handle_killpriv logic. V2 is just more refined version of protocol. Hence this patch does not send ATTR_MODE to kill suid/sgid if fc->handle_killpriv_v2 is enabled. This creates an issue if fc->writeback_cache is enabled. In that case WRITE can be cached in guest and server might not see WRITE request and hence will not kill suid/sgid. Miklos suggested that in such cases, we should fallback to a writethrough WRITE instead and that will generate WRITE request and kill suid/sgid. This patch implements that too. But this relies on client seeing the suid/sgid set. If another client sets suid/sgid and this client does not see it immideately, then we will not fallback to writethrough WRITE. So this is one limitation with both fc->handle_killpriv_v2 and fc->writeback_cache enabled. Both the options are not fully compatible. But might be good enough for many use cases. Note: This patch is not checking whether security.capability is set or not when falling back to writethrough path. If suid/sgid is not set and only security.capability is set, that will be taken care of by file_remove_privs() call in ->writeback_cache path.

fuse: setattr should set FATTR_KILL_SUIDGID

2020-11-11T16:22:33Z

If fc->handle_killpriv_v2 is enabled, we expect file server to clear suid/sgid/security.capbility upon chown/truncate/write as appropriate. Upon truncate (ATTR_SIZE), suid/sgid are cleared only if caller does not have CAP_FSETID. File server does not know whether caller has CAP_FSETID or not. Hence set FATTR_KILL_SUIDGID upon truncate to let file server know that caller does not have CAP_FSETID and it should kill suid/sgid as appropriate. On chown (ATTR_UID/ATTR_GID) suid/sgid need to be cleared irrespective of capabilities of calling process, so set FATTR_KILL_SUIDGID unconditionally in that case.

fuse: set FUSE_WRITE_KILL_SUIDGID in cached write path

2020-11-11T16:22:33Z

With HANDLE_KILLPRIV_V2, server will need to kill suid/sgid if caller does not have CAP_FSETID. We already have a flag FUSE_WRITE_KILL_SUIDGID in WRITE request and we already set it in direct I/O path. To make it work in cached write path also, start setting FUSE_WRITE_KILL_SUIDGID in this path too. Set it only if fc->handle_killpriv_v2 is set. Otherwise client is responsible for kill suid/sgid. In case of direct I/O we set FUSE_WRITE_KILL_SUIDGID unconditionally because we don't call file_remove_privs() in that path (with cache=none option).

fuse: rename FUSE_WRITE_KILL_PRIV to FUSE_WRITE_KILL_SUIDGID

2020-11-11T16:22:32Z

Kernel has: ATTR_KILL_PRIV -> clear "security.capability" ATTR_KILL_SUID -> clear S_ISUID ATTR_KILL_SGID -> clear S_ISGID if executable Fuse has: FUSE_WRITE_KILL_PRIV -> clear S_ISUID and S_ISGID if executable So FUSE_WRITE_KILL_PRIV implies the complement of ATTR_KILL_PRIV, which is somewhat confusing. Also PRIV implies all privileges, including "security.capability". Change the name to FUSE_WRITE_KILL_SUIDGID and make FUSE_WRITE_KILL_PRIV an alias to perserve API compatibility Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi

fuse: introduce the notion of FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV_V2

2020-11-11T16:22:32Z

We already have FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV flag that says that file server will remove suid/sgid/caps on truncate/chown/write. But that's little different from what Linux VFS implements. To be consistent with Linux VFS behavior what we want is. - caps are always cleared on chown/write/truncate - suid is always cleared on chown, while for truncate/write it is cleared only if caller does not have CAP_FSETID. - sgid is always cleared on chown, while for truncate/write it is cleared only if caller does not have CAP_FSETID as well as file has group execute permission. As previous flag did not provide above semantics. Implement a V2 of the protocol with above said constraints. Server does not know if caller has CAP_FSETID or not. So for the case of write()/truncate(), client will send information in special flag to indicate whether to kill priviliges or not. These changes are in subsequent patches. FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV_V2 relies on WRITE being sent to server to clear suid/sgid/security.capability. But with ->writeback_cache, WRITES are cached in guest. So it is not recommended to use FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV_V2 and writeback_cache together. Though it probably might be good enough for lot of use cases.
