list_entry is just a wrapper for container_of, but it is arguably wrong (and slightly confusing) to use it when the pointed-to struct member is not a struct list_head. Use container_of directly instead. Signed-off-by: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Currently XFS calls file_remove_privs() without holding i_mutex. This is wrong because that function can end up messing with file permissions and file capabilities stored in xattrs for which we need i_mutex held. Fix the problem by grabbing iolock exclusively when we will need to change anything in permissions / xattrs.

Comment in include/linux/security.h says that ->inode_killpriv() should be called when setuid bit is being removed and that similar security labels (in fact this applies only to file capabilities) should be removed at this time as well. However we don't call ->inode_killpriv() when we remove suid bit on truncate. We fix the problem by calling ->inode_need_killpriv() and subsequently ->inode_killpriv() on truncate the same way as we do it on file write. After this patch there's only one user of should_remove_suid() - ocfs2 - and indeed it's buggy because it doesn't call ->inode_killpriv() on write. However fixing it is difficult because of special locking constraints. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Provide function telling whether file_remove_privs() will do anything. Currently we only have should_remove_suid() and that does something slightly different. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

file_remove_suid() is a misnomer since it removes also file capabilities stored in xattrs and sets S_NOSEC flag. Also should_remove_suid() tells something else than whether file_remove_suid() call is necessary which leads to bugs.

file_remove_suid() could mistakenly set S_NOSEC inode bit when root was modifying the file. As a result following writes to the file by ordinary user would avoid clearing suid or sgid bits. Fix the bug by checking actual mode bits before setting S_NOSEC. CC: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

If posix_acl_create() returns an error code then "*acl" and "*default_acl" can be uninitialized or point to freed memory. This is a dangerous thing to do. For example, it causes a problem in ocfs2_reflink(): fs/ocfs2/refcounttree.c:4327 ocfs2_reflink() error: potentially using uninitialized 'default_acl'. I've re-written this so we set the pointers to NULL at the start. I've added a temporary "clone" variable to hold the value of "*acl" until end. Setting them to NULL means means we don't need the "no_acl" label. We may as well remove the "apply_umask" stuff forward and remove that label as well.

Make file->f_path always point to the overlay dentry so that the path in /proc/pid/fd is correct and to ensure that label-based LSMs have access to the overlay as well as the underlay (path-based LSMs probably don't need it). Using my union testsuite to set things up, before the patch I see: [root@andromeda union-testsuite]# bash 5</mnt/a/foo107 [root@andromeda union-testsuite]# ls -l /proc/$$/fd/ ... lr-x------. 1 root root 64 Jun 5 14:38 5 -> /a/foo107 [root@andromeda union-testsuite]# stat /mnt/a/foo107 ... Device: 23h/35d Inode: 13381 Links: 1 ... [root@andromeda union-testsuite]# stat -L /proc/$$/fd/5 ... Device: 23h/35d Inode: 13381 Links: 1 ... After the patch: [root@andromeda union-testsuite]# bash 5</mnt/a/foo107 [root@andromeda union-testsuite]# ls -l /proc/$$/fd/ ... lr-x------. 1 root root 64 Jun 5 14:22 5 -> /mnt/a/foo107 [root@andromeda union-testsuite]# stat /mnt/a/foo107 ... Device: 23h/35d Inode: 40346 Links: 1 ... [root@andromeda union-testsuite]# stat -L /proc/$$/fd/5 ... Device: 23h/35d Inode: 40346 Links: 1 ... Note the change in where /proc/$$/fd/5 points to in the ls command. It was pointing to /a/foo107 (which doesn't exist) and now points to /mnt/a/foo107 (which is correct). The inode accessed, however, is the lower layer. The union layer is on device 25h/37d and the upper layer on 24h/36d.

Commit e4502c63 (ufs: deal with nfsd/iget races) made ufs create inodes with I_NEW flag set. However ufs_mkdir() never cleared this flag. Thus if someone ever tried to lookup the directory by inode number, he would deadlock waiting for I_NEW to be cleared. Luckily this mostly happens only if the filesystem is exported over NFS since otherwise we have the inode attached to dentry and don't look it up by inode number. In rare cases dentry can get freed without inode being freed and then we'd hit the deadlock even without NFS export. Fix the problem by clearing I_NEW before instantiating new directory inode.

Commit e4502c63 (ufs: deal with nfsd/iget races) introduced unlock_new_inode() call into ufs_add_nondir(). However that function gets called also from ufs_link() which hands it already initialized inode and thus unlock_new_inode() complains. The problem is harmless but annoying.

when we find that a child has died while we'd been trying to ascend, we should go into the first live sibling itself, rather than its sibling. Off-by-one in question had been introduced in "deal with deadlock in d_walk()" and the fix needs to be backported to all branches this one has been backported to.

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 to verify that.
