2011-11-23eCryptfs: Prevent file create race conditionTyler Hicks
The file creation path prematurely called d_instantiate() and unlock_new_inode() before the eCryptfs inode info was fully allocated and initialized and before the eCryptfs metadata was written to the lower file. This could result in race conditions in subsequent file and inode operations leading to unexpected error conditions or a null pointer dereference while attempting to use the unallocated memory. https://launchpad.net/bugs/813146 Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@canonical.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org

2011-05-29eCryptfs: Cleanup and optimize ecryptfs_lookup_interpose()Tyler Hicks
ecryptfs_lookup_interpose() has turned into spaghetti code over the years. This is an effort to clean it up. - Shorten overly descriptive variable names such as ecryptfs_dentry - Simplify gotos and error paths - Create helper function for reading plaintext i_size from metadata It also includes an optimization when reading i_size from the metadata. A complete page-sized kmem_cache_alloc() was being done to read in 16 bytes of metadata. The buffer for that is now statically declared. Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

2011-05-29eCryptfs: Cleanup inode initialization codeTyler Hicks
The eCryptfs inode get, initialization, and dentry interposition code has two separate paths. One is for when dentry interposition is needed after doing things like a mkdir in the lower filesystem and the other is needed after a lookup. Unlocking new inodes and doing a d_add() needs to happen at different times, depending on which type of dentry interposing is being done. This patch cleans up the inode get and initialization code paths and splits them up so that the locking and d_add() differences mentioned above can be handled appropriately in a later patch.

After 57db4e8d73ef2b5e94a3f412108dff2576670a8a changed eCryptfs to write-back caching, eCryptfs page writeback updates the lower inode times due to the use of vfs_write() on the lower file. To preserve inode metadata changes, such as 'cp -p' does with utimensat(), we need to flush all dirty pages early in ecryptfs_setattr() so that the user-updated lower inode metadata isn't clobbered later in writeback. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33372 Reported-by: Rocko <rockorequin@hotmail.com> Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
2011-04-25eCryptfs: Handle failed metadata read in lookupTyler Hicks
When failing to read the lower file's crypto metadata during a lookup, eCryptfs must continue on without throwing an error. For example, there may be a plaintext file in the lower mount point that the user wants to delete through the eCryptfs mount. If an error is encountered while reading the metadata in lookup(), the eCryptfs inode's size could be incorrect. We must be sure to reread the plaintext inode size from the metadata when performing an open() or setattr(). The metadata is already being read in those paths, so this adds minimal performance overhead. This patch introduces a flag which will track whether or not the plaintext inode size has been read so that an incorrect i_size can be fixed in the open() or setattr() paths. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/509180 Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
2011-04-25eCryptfs: Add reference counting to lower filesTyler Hicks
For any given lower inode, eCryptfs keeps only one lower file open and multiplexes all eCryptfs file operations through that lower file. The lower file was considered "persistent" and stayed open from the first lookup through the lifetime of the inode. This patch keeps the notion of a single, per-inode lower file, but adds reference counting around the lower file so that it is closed when not currently in use. If the reference count is at 0 when an operation (such as open, create, etc.) needs to use the lower file, a new lower file is opened. Since the file is no longer persistent, all references to the term persistent file are changed to lower file. Locking is added around the sections of code that opens the lower file and assign the pointer in the inode info, as well as the code the fputs the lower file when all eCryptfs users are done with it. This patch is needed to fix issues, when mounted on top of the NFSv3 client, where the lower file is left silly renamed until the eCryptfs inode is destroyed.

2011-03-28eCryptfs: Remove unnecessary grow_file() functionTyler Hicks
When creating a new eCryptfs file, the crypto metadata is written out and then the lower file was being "grown" with 4 kB of encrypted zeroes.

However, the unencrypted file size is stored, in plaintext, in the metadata so growing the file is unnecessary. Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
2011-02-21eCryptfs: Copy up lower inode attrs in getattrTyler Hicks
The lower filesystem may do some type of inode revalidation during a getattr call. eCryptfs should take advantage of that by copying the lower inode attributes to the eCryptfs inode after a call to vfs_getattr() on the lower inode.

A valid filp for the lower filesystem could be returned in the nameidata if the lower file system's create() function supported LOOKUP_OPEN, possibly resulting in unencrypted writes to the lower file.

2010-10-29ecryptfs: call vfs_setxattr() in ecryptfs_setxattr()Roberto Sassu
Ecryptfs is a stackable filesystem which relies on lower filesystems the ability of setting/getting extended attributes. If there is a security module enabled on the system it updates the 'security' field of inodes according to the owned extended attribute set with the function vfs_setxattr(). When this function is performed on a ecryptfs filesystem the 'security' field is not updated for the lower filesystem since the call security_inode_post_setxattr() is missing for the lower inode. Further, the call security_inode_setxattr() is missing for the lower inode, leading to policy violations in the security module because specific checks for this hook are not performed (i. e. filesystem 'associate' permission on SELinux is not checked for the lower filesystem). This patch replaces the call of the setxattr() method of the lower inode in the function ecryptfs_setxattr() with vfs_setxattr().

2010-08-09check ATTR_SIZE contraints in inode_change_okChristoph Hellwig
Make sure we check the truncate constraints early on in ->setattr by adding those checks to inode_change_ok. Also clean up and document inode_change_ok to make this obvious. As a fallout we don't have to call inode_newsize_ok from simple_setsize and simplify it down to a truncate_setsize which doesn't return an error. This simplifies a lot of setattr implementations and means we use truncate_setsize almost everywhere. Get rid of fat_setsize now that it's trivial and mark ext2_setsize static to make the calling convention obvious. Keep the inode_newsize_ok in vmtruncate for now as all callers need an audit for its removal anyway. Note: setattr code in ecryptfs doesn't call inode_change_ok at all and needs a deeper audit, but that is left for later.

2010-08-09ecryptfs: dont call lookup_one_len to avoid NULL nameidataLino Sanfilippo
I have encountered the same problem that Eric Sandeen described in this post http://lkml.org/lkml/fancy/2010/4/23/467 while experimenting with stackable filesystems. The reason seems to be that ecryptfs calls lookup_one_len() to get the lower dentry, which in turn calls the lower parent dirs d_revalidate() with a NULL nameidata object. If ecryptfs is the underlaying filesystem, the NULL pointer dereference occurs, since ecryptfs is not prepared to handle a NULL nameidata. I know that this cant happen any more, since it is no longer allowed to mount ecryptfs upon itself. But maybe this patch it useful nevertheless, since the problem would still apply for an underlaying filesystem that implements d_revalidate() and is not prepared to handle a NULL nameidata (I dont know if there actually is such a fs). With this patch (against 2.6.35-rc5) ecryptfs uses the vfs_lookup_path() function instead of lookup_one_len() which ensures that the nameidata passed to the lower filesystems d_revalidate().

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2010-03-23eCryptfs: Clear buffer before reading in metadata xattrTyler Hicks
We initially read in the first PAGE_CACHE_SIZE of a file to if the eCryptfs header marker can be found. If it isn't found and ecryptfs_xattr_metadata was given as a mount option, then the user.ecryptfs xattr is read into the same buffer. Since the data from the first page of the file wasn't cleared, it is possible that we think we've found a second tag 3 or tag 1 packet and then error out after the packet contents aren't as expected. This patch clears the buffer before filling it with metadata from the user.ecryptfs xattr. Reviewed-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
2010-03-23eCryptfs: Rename ecryptfs_crypt_stat.num_header_bytes_at_frontTyler Hicks
This patch renames the num_header_bytes_at_front variable to metadata_size since it now contains the max size of the metadata. Reviewed-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
2010-03-23eCryptfs: Fix metadata in xattr feature regressionTyler Hicks
Fixes regression in 8faece5f906725c10e7a1f6caf84452abadbdc7b When using the ecryptfs_xattr_metadata mount option, eCryptfs stores the metadata (normally stored at the front of the file) in the user.ecryptfs xattr. This causes ecryptfs_crypt_stat.num_header_bytes_at_front to be 0, since there is no header data at the front of the file. This results in too much memory being requested and ENOMEM being returned from ecryptfs_write_metadata(). This patch fixes the problem by using the num_header_bytes_at_front variable for specifying the max size of the metadata, despite whether it is stored in the header or xattr.
