FAN_DIR_MODIFY has been enabled by commit 44d705b037 ("fanotify:
report name info for FAN_DIR_MODIFY event") in 5.7-rc1. Now we are
planning further extensions to the fanotify API and during that we
realized that FAN_DIR_MODIFY may behave slightly differently to be more
consistent with extensions we plan. So until we finalize these
extensions, let's not bind our hands with exposing FAN_DIR_MODIFY to
userland.

The comments in fanotify_group_event_mask() say:
"If the event is on dir/child and this mark doesn't care about
events on dir/child, don't send it!"
Specifically, mount and filesystem marks do not care about events
on child, but they can still specify an ignore mask for those events.
For example, a group that has:
- A mount mark with mask 0 and ignore_mask FAN_OPEN
- An inode mark on a directory with mask FAN_OPEN | FAN_OPEN_EXEC
with flag FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD
A child file open for exec would be reported to group with the FAN_OPEN
event despite the fact that FAN_OPEN is in ignore mask of mount mark,
because the mark iteration loop skips over non-inode marks for events
on child when calculating the ignore mask.
Move ignore mask calculation to the top of the iteration loop block
before excluding marks for events on dir/child.

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.
This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

Report event FAN_DIR_MODIFY with name in a variable length record similar
to how fid's are reported. With name info reporting implemented, setting
FAN_DIR_MODIFY in mark mask is now allowed.
When events are reported with name, the reported fid identifies the
directory and the name follows the fid. The info record type for this
event info is FAN_EVENT_INFO_TYPE_DFID_NAME.
For now, all reported events have at most one info record which is
either FAN_EVENT_INFO_TYPE_FID or FAN_EVENT_INFO_TYPE_DFID_NAME (for
FAN_DIR_MODIFY). Later on, events "on child" will report both records.
There are several ways that an application can use this information:
1. When watching a single directory, the name is always relative to
the watched directory, so application need to fstatat(2) the name
relative to the watched directory.
2. When watching a set of directories, the application could keep a map
of dirfd for all watched directories and hash the map by fid obtained
with name_to_handle_at(2). When getting a name event, the fid in the
event info could be used to lookup the base dirfd in the map and then
call fstatat(2) with that dirfd.
3. When watching a filesystem (FAN_MARK_FILESYSTEM) or a large set of
directories, the application could use open_by_handle_at(2) with the fid
in event info to obtain dirfd for the directory where event happened and
call fstatat(2) with this dirfd.
The last option scales better for a large number of watched directories.
The first two options may be available in the future also for non
privileged fanotify watchers, because open_by_handle_at(2) requires
the CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH capability.

Dirent events are going to be supported in two flavors:
1. Directory fid info + mask that includes the specific event types
(e.g. FAN_CREATE) and an optional FAN_ONDIR flag.
2. Directory fid info + name + mask that includes only FAN_DIR_MODIFY.
To request the second event flavor, user needs to set the event type
FAN_DIR_MODIFY in the mark mask.
The first flavor is supported since kernel v5.1 for groups initialized
with flag FAN_REPORT_FID. It is intended to be used for watching
directories in "batch mode" - the watcher is notified when directory is
changed and re-scans the directory content in response. This event
flavor is stored more compactly in the event queue, so it is optimal
for workloads with frequent directory changes.
The second event flavor is intended to be used for watching large
directories, where the cost of re-scan of the directory on every change
is considered too high. The watcher getting the event with the directory
fid and entry name is expected to call fstatat(2) to query the content of
the entry after the change.
Legacy inotify events are reported with name and event mask (e.g. "foo",
FAN_CREATE | FAN_ONDIR). That can lead users to the conclusion that
there is *currently* an entry "foo" that is a sub-directory, when in fact
"foo" may be negative or non-dir by the time user gets the event.
To make it clear that the current state of the named entry is unknown,
when reporting an event with name info, fanotify obfuscates the specific
event types (e.g. create,delete,rename) and uses a common event type -
FAN_DIR_MODIFY to describe the change. This should make it harder for
users to make wrong assumptions and write buggy filesystem monitors.
At this point, name info reporting is not yet implemented, so trying to
set FAN_DIR_MODIFY in mark mask will return -EINVAL.

Currently, struct fanotify_fid groups fsid and file handle and is
unioned together with struct path to save space. Also there is fh_type
and fh_len directly in struct fanotify_event to avoid padding overhead.
In the follwing patches, we will be adding more event types and this
packing makes code difficult to follow. So unpack everything and create
struct fanotify_fh which groups members logically related to file handle
to make code easier to follow. In the following patch we will pack
things again differently to make events smaller.

Change the logic of FAN_ONDIR in two ways that are similar to the logic
of FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD, that was fixed in commit 54a307ba8d ("fanotify:
fix logic of events on child"):
1. The flag is meaningless in ignore mask
2. The flag refers only to events in the mask of the mark where it is set
This is what the fanotify_mark.2 man page says about FAN_ONDIR:
"Without this flag, only events for files are created." It doesn't
say anything about setting this flag in ignore mask to stop getting
events on directories nor can I think of any setup where this capability
would be useful.
Currently, when marks masks are merged, the FAN_ONDIR flag set in one
mark affects the events that are set in another mark's mask and this
behavior causes unexpected results. For example, a user adds a mark on a
directory with mask FAN_ATTRIB | FAN_ONDIR and a mount mark with mask
FAN_OPEN (without FAN_ONDIR). An opendir() of that directory (which is
inside that mount) generates a FAN_OPEN event even though neither of the
marks requested to get open events on directories.

With inotify, when a watch is set on a directory and on its child, an
event on the child is reported twice, once with wd of the parent watch
and once with wd of the child watch without the filename.
With fanotify, when a watch is set on a directory and on its child, an
event on the child is reported twice, but it has the exact same
information - either an open file descriptor of the child or an encoded
fid of the child.
The reason that the two identical events are not merged is because the
object id used for merging events in the queue is the child inode in one
event and parent inode in the other.
For events with path or dentry data, use the victim inode instead of the
watched inode as the object id for event merging, so that the event
reported on parent will be merged with the event reported on the child.

When a filesystem is unmounted, we currently call fsnotify_sb_delete()
before evict_inodes(), which means that fsnotify_unmount_inodes()
must iterate over all inodes on the superblock looking for any inodes
with watches. This is inefficient and can lead to livelocks as it
iterates over many unwatched inodes.
At this point, SB_ACTIVE is gone and dropping refcount to zero kicks
the inode out out immediately, so anything processed by
fsnotify_sb_delete / fsnotify_unmount_inodes gets evicted in that loop.
After that, the call to evict_inodes will evict everything else with a
zero refcount.
This should speed things up overall, and avoid livelocks in
fsnotify_unmount_inodes().

The .ioctl and .compat_ioctl file operations have the same prototype so
they can both point to the same function, which works great almost all
the time when all the commands are compatible.
One exception is the s390 architecture, where a compat pointer is only
31 bit wide, and converting it into a 64-bit pointer requires calling
compat_ptr(). Most drivers here will never run in s390, but since we now
have a generic helper for it, it's easy enough to use it consistently.
I double-checked all these drivers to ensure that all ioctl arguments
are used as pointers or are ignored, but are not interpreted as integer
values.

the SELinux code; we fix those and remove current_security() for
good.
- Improve our network object labeling cache so that we always return
the object's label, even when under memory pressure. Previously we
would return an error if we couldn't allocate a new cache entry, now
we always return the label even if we can't create a new cache entry
for it.

As of now, setting watches on filesystem objects has, at most, applied a
check for read access to the inode, and in the case of fanotify, requires
CAP_SYS_ADMIN. No specific security hook or permission check has been
provided to control the setting of watches. Using any of inotify, dnotify,
or fanotify, it is possible to observe, not only write-like operations, but
even read access to a file. Modeling the watch as being merely a read from
the file is insufficient for the needs of SELinux. This is due to the fact
that read access should not necessarily imply access to information about
when another process reads from a file. Furthermore, fanotify watches grant
more power to an application in the form of permission events. While
notification events are solely, unidirectional (i.e. they only pass
information to the receiving application), permission events are blocking.
Permission events make a request to the receiving application which will
then reply with a decision as to whether or not that action may be
completed. This causes the issue of the watching application having the
ability to exercise control over the triggering process. Without drawing a
distinction within the permission check, the ability to read would imply
the greater ability to control an application. Additionally, mount and
superblock watches apply to all files within the same mount or superblock.
Read access to one file should not necessarily imply the ability to watch
all files accessed within a given mount or superblock.
In order to solve these issues, a new LSM hook is implemented and has been
placed within the system calls for marking filesystem objects with inotify,
fanotify, and dnotify watches. These calls to the hook are placed at the
point at which the target path has been resolved and are provided with the
path struct, the mask of requested notification events, and the type of
object on which the mark is being set (inode, superblock, or mount). The
mask and obj_type have already been translated into common FS_* values
shared by the entirety of the fs notification infrastructure. The path
struct is passed rather than just the inode so that the mount is available,
particularly for mount watches. This also allows for use of the hook by
pathname-based security modules. However, since the hook is intended for
use even by inode based security modules, it is not placed under the
CONFIG_SECURITY_PATH conditional. Otherwise, the inode-based security
modules would need to enable all of the path hooks, even though they do not
use any of them.
This only provides a hook at the point of setting a watch, and presumes
that permission to set a particular watch implies the ability to receive
all notification about that object which match the mask. This is all that
is required for SELinux. If other security modules require additional hooks
or infrastructure to control delivery of notification, these can be added
by them. It does not make sense for us to propose hooks for which we have
no implementation. The understanding that all notifications received by the
requesting application are all strictly of a type for which the application
has been granted permission shows that this implementation is sufficient in
its coverage.
Security modules wishing to provide complete control over fanotify must
also implement a security_file_open hook that validates that the access
requested by the watching application is authorized. Fanotify has the issue
that it returns a file descriptor with the file mode specified during
fanotify_init() to the watching process on event. This is already covered
by the LSM security_file_open hook if the security module implements
checking of the requested file mode there. Otherwise, a watching process
can obtain escalated access to a file for which it has not been authorized.
The selinux_path_notify hook implementation works by adding five new file
permissions: watch, watch_mount, watch_sb, watch_reads, and watch_with_perm
(descriptions about which will follow), and one new filesystem permission:
watch (which is applied to superblock checks). The hook then decides which
subset of these permissions must be held by the requesting application
based on the contents of the provided mask and the obj_type. The
selinux_file_open hook already checks the requested file mode and therefore
ensures that a watching process cannot escalate its access through
fanotify.
The watch, watch_mount, and watch_sb permissions are the baseline
permissions for setting a watch on an object and each are a requirement for
any watch to be set on a file, mount, or superblock respectively. It should
be noted that having either of the other two permissions (watch_reads and
watch_with_perm) does not imply the watch, watch_mount, or watch_sb
permission. Superblock watches further require the filesystem watch
permission to the superblock. As there is no labeled object in view for
mounts, there is no specific check for mount watches beyond watch_mount to
the inode. Such a check could be added in the future, if a suitable labeled
object existed representing the mount.
The watch_reads permission is required to receive notifications from
read-exclusive events on filesystem objects. These events include accessing
a file for the purpose of reading and closing a file which has been opened
read-only. This distinction has been drawn in order to provide a direct
indication in the policy for this otherwise not obvious capability. Read
access to a file should not necessarily imply the ability to observe read
events on a file.
Finally, watch_with_perm only applies to fanotify masks since it is the
only way to set a mask which allows for the blocking, permission event.
This permission is needed for any watch which is of this type. Though
fanotify requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN, this is insufficient as it gives implicit
trust to root, which we do not do, and does not support least privilege.

In the sysctl code the proc_dointvec_minmax() function is often used to
validate the user supplied value between an allowed range. This
function uses the extra1 and extra2 members from struct ctl_table as
minimum and maximum allowed value.
On sysctl handler declaration, in every source file there are some
readonly variables containing just an integer which address is assigned
to the extra1 and extra2 members, so the sysctl range is enforced.
The special values 0, 1 and INT_MAX are very often used as range
boundary, leading duplication of variables like zero=0, one=1,
int_max=INT_MAX in different source files:
$ git grep -E '\.extra[12].*&(zero|one|int_max)' |wc -l
248
Add a const int array containing the most commonly used values, some
macros to refer more easily to the correct array member, and use them
instead of creating a local one for every object file.

Commit d46eb14b73 ("fs: fsnotify: account fsnotify metadata to

objects. The aim was to charge the memory to the listener who is
interested in the events but without triggering the OOM killer.
Otherwise there would be security concerns for the listener.
At the time, oom-kill trigger was not in the charging path. A parallel
work added the oom-kill back to charging path i.e. commit 29ef680ae7
("memcg, oom: move out_of_memory back to the charge path"). So to not
trigger oom-killer in the remote memcg, explicitly add
__GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL to the fanotigy and inotify event allocations.

just disallow them.

parent_tidptr argument. This means we can give back the associated pid
and the pidfd at the same time. Access to process metadata information
thus becomes rather trivial.
As has been agreed, CLONE_PIDFD creates file descriptors based on
anonymous inodes similar to the new mount api. They are made
unconditional by this patchset as they are now needed by core kernel
code (vfs, pidfd) even more than they already were before (timerfd,
signalfd, io_uring, epoll etc.). The core patchset is rather small.
The bulky looking changelist is caused by David's very simple changes
to Kconfig to make anon inodes unconditional.
A pidfd comes with additional information in fdinfo if the kernel
supports procfs. The fdinfo file contains the pid of the process in
the callers pid namespace in the same format as the procfs status
file, i.e. "Pid:\t%d".
To remove worries about missing metadata access this patchset comes
with a sample/test program that illustrates how a combination of
CLONE_PIDFD and pidfd_send_signal() can be used to gain race-free
access to process metadata through /proc/<pid>.
Further work based on this patchset has been done by Joel. His work
makes pidfds pollable. It finished too late for this merge window. I
would prefer to have it sitting in linux-next for a while and send it
for inclusion during the 5.3 merge window"
