keys: Namespace keyring names
Keyring names are held in a single global list that any process can pick from by means of keyctl_join_session_keyring (provided the keyring grants Search permission). This isn't very container friendly, however. Make the following changes: (1) Make default session, process and thread keyring names begin with a '.' instead of '_'. (2) Keyrings whose names begin with a '.' aren't added to the list. Such keyrings are system specials. (3) Replace the global list with per-user_namespace lists. A keyring adds its name to the list for the user_namespace that it is currently in. (4) When a user_namespace is deleted, it just removes itself from the keyring name list. The global keyring_name_lock is retained for accessing the name lists. This allows (4) to work. This can be tested by: # keyctl newring foo @s 995906392 # unshare -U $ keyctl show ... 995906392 --alswrv 65534 65534 \_ keyring: foo ... $ keyctl session foo Joined session keyring: 935622349 As can be seen, a new session keyring was created. The capability bit KEYCTL_CAPS1_NS_KEYRING_NAME is set if the kernel is employing this feature. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> cc: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>
