Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] vfs/security/NFS/btrfs: clean up and fix LSM option handling

This series fixes two bugs:
1. A bug with BTRFS where LSM options are ignored when BTRFS is mounted
via the new fsconfig(2) API. (fixed by patch 1)
2. A bug with NFS + SELinux where an attempt to do the same mount twice
might incidentally turn off LSM labeling, making any fresh inode
show up as unlabeled. (fixed by patch 2, with patch 1 as a prereq)

For bug (1.) I previously posted a different patch [1], which is no
longer needed if these patches are applied.

While these patches do add a new fs_type flag (which seems to be frowned
upon), they also reduce the semantics of FS_BINARY_MOUNT_DATA flag to
*only* the mount data being binary, while before it was also (ab)used
to skip mount option processing in SELinux for NFS and BTRFS. The result
is perhaps still not perfect, but it seems to be the only non-invasive
solution for these bugs in the short term. Once BTRFS is finally
converted to the new mount API, a lot of the ugliness can likely be
refactored to something nicer (and these patches do not really make that
any harder to do, IMHO).

I tested the patches by running the NFS part of the SELinux testsuite
[2] (which is now fully passing). I also ran the proposed BTRFS SELinux
test coverage for selinux-testsuite [3], which is now passing.

Changes since v1:
- in BTRFS, move the FS_HANDLES_LSM_OPTS flag to btrfs_root_fs_type, and
remove FS_BINARY_MOUNTDATA from both fs_types now

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/selinux/[email protected]/T/

^^ the original patch no longer applies - a rebased version is here:

Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] vfs,LSM: introduce the FS_HANDLES_LSM_OPTS flag

Add a new FS_HANDLES_LSM_OPTS filesystem flag to singal to VFS that the
filesystem does LSM option setting for the given mount on its own, so
the security_sb_set_mnt_opts() call in vfs_get_tree() can be skipped.

This allows the following simplifications:
1. Removal of explicit LSM option handling from BTRFS.

This exists only because of the double-layer mount that BTRFS is
doing for its subvolume support. Setting FS_HANDLES_LSM_OPTS on the
inner layer (btrfs_root_fs_type) and unsetting FS_BINARY_MOUNTDATA
from both layers allows us to leave the LSM option handling entirely
on VFS as part of the outer vfs_get_tree() call.

2. Removal of FS_BINARY_MOUNTDATA flags from BTRFS's fs_types.

After applying (1.), we can let VFS eat away LSM opts at the outer
mount layer and then do selinux_set_mnt_opts() with these opts, so
setting the flag is no longer needed neither for preserving the LSM
opts, nor for the SELinux double-set_mnt_opts exception.

3. Removal of the ugly FS_BINARY_MOUNTDATA special case from
selinux_set_mnt_opts().

Applying (1.) and also setting FS_HANDLES_LSM_OPTS on NFS fs_types
(which needs to unavoidably do the LSM options handling on its own
due to the SECURITY_LSM_NATIVE_LABELS flag usage) gets us to the
state where there is an exactly one security_sb_set_mnt_opts() or
security_sb_clone_mnt_opts() call for each superblock, so the rather
hacky FS_BINARY_MOUNTDATA special case can be finally removed from
security_sb_set_mnt_opts().

The only other filesystem that sets FS_BINARY_MOUNTDATA is coda, which
is also the only one that has binary mount data && doesn't do its own
LSM options handling. So for coda we leave FS_HANDLES_LSM_OPTS unset and
the behavior remains unchanged - with fsconfig(2) it (probably) won't
even mount and with mount(2) it still won't support LSM options (and the
security_sb_set_mnt_opts() will be always performed with empty LSM
options as before).

AFAICT, this shouldn't negatively affect the other LSMs. In fact, I
think AppArmor will now gain the ability to do its DFA matching on BTRFS
mount options, which was prevented before due to FS_BINARY_MOUNTDATA
being set on both its fs_types.
