Subject: [PATCH v3 1/3] [security] Add new hook to compare new mount to an existing mount

From: Olga Kornievskaia <[email protected]>

Add a new hook that takes an existing super block and a new mount
with new options and determines if new options confict with an
existing mount or not.

A filesystem can use this new hook to determine if it can share
the an existing superblock with a new superblock for the new mount.

Full disclosure: I'm a big fan of good documentation, regardless of if
it lives in comments or a separate dedicated resource. Looking at the
comment above, and the SELinux implementation of this hook below, it
appears that the comment is a bit vague; specifically the use of
"compatible". Based on the SELinux implementation, "compatible" would
seem to equal, do you envision that to be the case for every
LSM/security-model? If the answer is yes, then let's say that (and
possibly rename the hook to "sb_mnt_opts_equal"). If the answer is
no, then I think we need to do a better job explaining what
compatibility really means; put yourself in the shoes of someone
writing a LSM, what would they need to know to write an implementation
for this hook?

That's is tough to do as it is vague. All I was doing was fixing a
bug. Selinux didn't allow a new mount because it had a different
security context. What that translates to for the new hook, is up to
the LSM module whether it would need the options to be exactly the
same or if they can be slightly different but yet compatible this is
really up to the LSM.

Do you care to suggest wording to use? It is hard to find words that
somebody else is looking for but one is unable to provide them.

The original implementation did use sb_mnt_opts_equal(). The
change to "compatible" was my suggestion. Smack has multiple
mount options, and while I haven't actually delved into how
you would have compatible but different mount options, I
think it's possible. That's why I think that "equal" isn't
a good name for the function.

I didn't have anything particular in mind, I just *really* don't like
the ambiguity around "compatible". Perhaps we can take away some of
the ambiguity by providing some more explanation, how about something
like this:

"Determine if the new mount options in @mnt_opts are allowed given the
existing mounted filesystem at @sb."

... it's a pretty minor change, I'll readily admit that, but it
exchanges "compatible" for "allowed" which I *think* makes it a bit
more concrete.

Do you have any other thoughts on this patch? I'm also wondering how
you want to handle sending it upstream. I'm happy to take it through
the NFS tree (with an acked-by) for a 5.12-rc with Olga's bugfix
patches, but if you have other thoughts or plans then let me know!

Thanks,
Anna

James Morris is the maintainer for the security sub-system,
so you'll want to send this through him. He will want you to
have an ACK from Paul Moore, who is the SELinux maintainer.

In the past I've pulled patches such as this (new LSM hook, with only
a SELinux implementation of the new hook) in via the selinux/next tree
after the other LSMs have ACK'd the new hook. This helps limit merge
problems with other SELinux changes and allows us (the SELinux folks)
to include it in the ongoing testing that we do during the -rcX
releases.

So Anna, if you or anyone else on the NFS side of the house want to
add your ACKs/REVIEWs/etc. please do so as I don't like merging
patches that cross subsystem boundaries without having all the
associated ACKs. Casey, James, and other LSM folks please do the
same.

Sure:
Acked-by: Anna Schumaker <[email protected]>

Are you also going to take patch 3/3 that uses the new hook, or should
that go through the NFS tree? Patch 2/3 is a cleanup that can go
through the NFS tree.

Generally when patches are posted as patchsets I would apply the whole
patchset assuming they patches were all good, however it does seem
like patch 2/3 is not strictly related to the other two? That said,
as long as your ACK applies to all three patches in the patchset I
have no problem applying all of them to the selinux/next tree once
some of the other LSM maintainers provide their ACKs (while there may
only a SELinux implementation of the hook at the moment, we need to
make sure the other LSMs are okay with the basic hook concept).

Also, did the v4 posting only include patch 1/3? I see v3 postings
for the other two patches, but the only v4 patch I see is 1/3 ... ?

Okay, so I'm guessing that means path 2/3 and 3/3 didn't change?

While I suppose there are cases where people do not do this, it has
been my experience that if someone posts a patchset and some portion
of the patchset changes, due to feedback or other factors, the entire
patchset is reposted under the new version number. If nothing else
this helps ensure people are always looking at the latest draft of a
particular patch instead of having to dig through the list to
determine which patch is the most recent.

Correct, patches 2&3 didn't change and selinux patch generated several
iterations. Would you like me to repost a series? I'm not sure what
I'm supposed to do at this point.

As long as we are clear that the latest draft of patch 1/3 is to be
taken from the v4 patch{set} and patches 2/3 and 3/3 are to be taken
from v3 of the patchset I don't think you need to do anything further.
The important bit is for the other LSM folks to ACK the new hook; if I
don't see anything from them, either positive or negative, I'll merge
it towards the end of this week or early next.

LSM folks, this is a reminder that if you want to object you've got
until Monday morning to do so :)

I'm unclear on whether a new v5 patchset was being posted -- I assume not?

v4 addressed all the existing concerns/comments that were made. no new
version is planned unless somebody else has any more comments.
