[PATCH v2 37/39] fs: introduce MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP

Christian Brauner christian.brauner at ubuntu.com
Sun Nov 15 10:37:16 UTC 2020


Introduce a new mount bind mount property to allow idmapping mounts. The
MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP flag can be set via the new mount_setattr() syscall
together with a file descriptor referring to a user namespace.

The user namespace referenced by the namespace file descriptor will be
attached to the bind mount. All interactions with the filesystem going
through that mount will be idmapped according to the mapping specified in
the user namespace attached to it.

Using user namespaces to mark mounts means we can reuse all the existing
infrastructure in the kernel that already exists to handle idmappings and can
also use this for permission checking to allow unprivileged user to create
idmapped mounts in the future.

Idmapping a mount is decoupled from the caller's user and mount namespace.
This means idmapped mounts can be created in the initial user namespace
which is an important use-case for systemd-homed, portable usb-sticks
between systems, sharing data between the initial user namespace and
unprivileged containers, and other use-cases that have been brought up. For
example, assume a home directory where all files are owned by uid and gid
1000 and the home directory is brought to a new laptop where the user has
id 12345. The system administrator can simply create a mount of this home
directory with a mapping of 1000:12345:1 other mappings to indicate the ids
should be kept. (With this it is e.g. also possible to create idmapped
mounts on the host with an identity mapping 1:1:100000 where the root user
is not mapped. A user with root access that e.g. has been pivot rooted into
such a mount on the host will be not be able to execute, read, write, or
create files as root.)

Given that idmapping a mount is decoupled from the caller's user namespace
a sufficiently privileged process such as a container manager can set up a
shifted mount for the container and the container can simply pivot root to
it. There's no need for the container to do anything. The mount will appear
correctly mapped independent of the user namespace the container uses. This
means we don't need to mark a mount as idmappable.

In order to create an idmapped mount the caller must currently be privileged in
the user namespace of the superblock the mount belongs to. Currently, once a
mount has been idmapped we don't allow it to change its mapping. This can be
changed in the future if the use-cases arises.

/* v2 */
- Christoph Hellwig <hch at lst.de>:
  - Drop kconfig option to make vfs idmappings unconditional.
  - Move introduction of MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP to the end of the series after all
    internal changes have been done.
  - Move MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP handling from build_mount_kattr() to separate
    build_mount_idmapped() helper.
  - Move MNT_IDMAPPED handling from do_mount_setattr() into separate
    do_mount_idmap() helper.
  - Use more helpers instead of one big function for mount attribute changes.
- Mauricio Vásquez Bernal <mauricio at kinvolk.io>:
  - Recalculate flags before checking can_change_locked_flags().
