Subject: [PATCH 1/2] autofs4: allow autofs to work outside the initial PID namespace

Gone over this issue once again, with a deeper understanding of what's
actually needed and updated the patches.

And I think these patches clearly fix the requirement of the customer:
autofs4 can be started in a "container" and it will be able to serve
mounts in that container.

If second patch makes sure that triggers from unrelated pid namespaces
are not honoured (because they can't be honoured properly).

Untested, for review only at this point.

Thanks,
Miklos

This patch enables autofs4 to work in a "container". oz_pgrp is converted from
pid_t to struct pid and this is stored at mount time based on the "pgrp=" option
or if the option is missing then the current pgrp.

The "pgrp=" option is interpreted in the PID namespace of the current process.
This option is flawed in that it doesn't carry the namespace information, so it
should be deprecated. AFAICS the autofs daemon always sends the current pgrp,
which is the default anyway.

The oz_pgrp is also set from the AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_SETPIPEFD_CMD ioctl. This
ioctl sets oz_pgrp to the current pgrp. It is not allowed to change the pid
namespace.

oz_pgrp is used mainly to determine whether the process traversing the autofs
mount tree is the autofs daemon itself or not. This function now compares the
pid pointers instead of the pid_t values.

One other use of oz_pgrp is in autofs4_show_options. There is shows the
virtual pid number (i.e. the one that is valid inside the PID namespace of the
calling process)

For debugging printk convert oz_pgrp to the value in the initial pid namespace.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] autofs4: translate pids to the right namespace for the daemon

From: Miklos Szeredi <[email protected]>

The PID and the TGID of the process tringgering the mount are sent to the
daemon. Currently the global pid values are sent (ones valid in the initial pid
namespace) but this is wrong if the autofs daemon itself is not running in the
initial pid namespace.

So send the pid values that are valid in the namespace of the autofs daemon.

The namespace to use is taken from the oz_pgrp pid pointer, which was set at
mount time to the mounting process' pid namespace.

If the pid translation fails (the triggering process is in an unrelated pid
namespace) then the automount fails with ENOENT.
