2013-01-27userns: Allow the unprivileged users to mount mqueue fsGao feng1-0/+1
This patch allow the unprivileged user to mount mqueuefs in user ns. If two userns share the same ipcns,the files in mqueue fs should be seen in both these two userns. If the userns has its own ipcns,it has its own mqueue fs too. ipcns has already done this job well. Signed-off-by: Gao feng <gaofeng@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2013-01-26userns: Allow the userns root to mount tmpfs.Eric W. Biederman1-0/+2
There is no backing store to tmpfs and file creation rules are the same as for any other filesystem so it is semantically safe to allow unprivileged users to mount it. ramfs is safe for the same reasons so allow either flavor of tmpfs to be mounted by a user namespace root user. The memory control group successfully limits how much memory tmpfs can consume on any system that cares about a user namespace root using tmpfs to exhaust memory the memory control group can be deployed.

2013-01-26userns: Allow the userns root to mount of devptsEric W. Biederman1-0/+18
- The context in which devpts is mounted has no effect on the creation of ptys as the /dev/ptmx interface has been used by unprivileged users for many years. - Only support unprivileged mounts in combination with the newinstance option to ensure that mounting of /dev/pts in a user namespace will not allow the options of an existing mount of devpts to be modified. - Create /dev/pts/ptmx as the root user in the user namespace that mounts devpts so that it's permissions to be changed.

In the help text describing user namespaces recommend use of memory control groups.

2013-01-26userns: Allow any uid or gid mappings that don't overlap.Eric W. Biederman1-6/+39
When I initially wrote the code for /proc/<pid>/uid_map. I was lazy and avoided duplicate mappings by the simple expedient of ensuring the first number in a new extent was greater than any number in the previous extent. Unfortunately that precludes a number of valid mappings, and someone noticed and complained. So use a simple check to ensure that ranges in the mapping extents don't overlap.

2013-01-26userns: Avoid recursion in put_user_nsEric W. Biederman3-16/+15
When freeing a deeply nested user namespace free_user_ns calls put_user_ns on it's parent which may in turn call free_user_ns again. When -fno-optimize-sibling-calls is passed to gcc one stack frame per user namespace is left on the stack, potentially overflowing the kernel stack. CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER forces -fno-optimize-sibling-calls so we can't count on gcc to optimize this code. Remove struct kref and use a plain atomic_t. Making the code more flexible and easier to comprehend. Make the loop in free_user_ns explict to guarantee that the stack does not overflow with CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER enabled. I have tested this fix with a simple program that uses unshare to create a deeply nested user namespace structure and then calls exit. With 1000 nesteuser namespaces before this change running my test program causes the kernel to die a horrible death. With 10,000,000 nested user namespaces after this change my test program runs to completion and causes no harm.

2012-12-25pidns: Stop pid allocation when init diesEric W. Biederman4-4/+20
Oleg pointed out that in a pid namespace the sequence. - pid 1 becomes a zombie - setns(thepidns), fork,... - reaping pid 1. - The injected processes exiting. Can lead to processes attempting access their child reaper and instead following a stale pointer. That waitpid for init can return before all of the processes in the pid namespace have exited is also unfortunate. Avoid these problems by disabling the allocation of new pids in a pid namespace when init dies, instead of when the last process in a pid namespace is reaped.

The sequence: unshare(CLONE_NEWPID) clone(CLONE_THREAD|CLONE_SIGHAND|CLONE_VM) Creates a new process in the new pid namespace without setting pid_ns->child_reaper. After forking this results in a NULL pointer dereference. Avoid this and other nonsense scenarios that can show up after creating a new pid namespace with unshare by adding a new check in copy_prodcess.

Introduce a field per_bio_data_size in struct dm_target. Targets can set this field in the constructor.

These data can be used for any purpose by the target and help us improve performance by removing some per-target mempools. Per-bio data is accessed with dm_per_bio_data. The argument data_size must be the same as the value per_bio_data_size in dm_target. If the target has a pointer to per_bio_data, it can get a pointer to the bio with dm_bio_from_per_bio_data() function (data_size must be the same as the value passed to dm_per_bio_data).

Add WRITE SAME support to dm-io and make it accessible to dm_kcopyd_zero(). dm_kcopyd_zero() provides an asynchronous interface whereas the blkdev_issue_write_same() interface is synchronous. WRITE SAME is a SCSI command that can be leveraged for more efficient zeroing of a specified logical extent of a device which supports it. Only a single zeroed logical block is transfered to the target for each WRITE SAME and the target then writes that same block across the specified extent. The dm thin target uses this.

2012-12-21dm ioctl: use kmalloc if possibleMikulas Patocka1-13/+32
If the parameter buffer is small enough, try to allocate it with kmalloc() rather than vmalloc(). vmalloc is noticeably slower than kmalloc because it has to manipulate page tables. In my tests, on PA-RISC this patch speeds up activation 13 times. On Opteron this patch speeds up activation by 5%. This patch introduces a new function free_params() to free the parameters and this uses new flags that record whether or not vmalloc() was used and whether or not the input buffer must be wiped after use.

2012-12-21dm raid: round region_size to power of twoJonathan Brassow1-1/+3
If the user does not supply a bitmap region_size to the dm raid target, a reasonable size is computed automatically. If this is not a power of 2, the md code will report an error later. This patch catches the problem early and rounds the region_size to the next power of two. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Brassow <jbrassow@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
2012-12-21dm thin: cleanup dead codeJoe Thornber1-14/+5
Remove unused @data_block parameter from cell_defer. Change thin_bio_map to use many returns rather than setting a variable. Signed-off-by: Joe Thornber <ejt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
2012-12-21dm thin: rename cell_defer_except to cell_defer_no_holderJoe Thornber1-21/+21
Rename cell_defer_except() to cell_defer_no_holder() which describes its function more clearly. Signed-off-by: Joe Thornber <ejt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
2012-12-21dm snapshot: optimize track_chunkMikulas Patocka1-3/+2
track_chunk is always called with interrupts enabled. Consequently, we do not need to save and restore interrupt state in "flags" variable. This patch changes spin_lock_irqsave to spin_lock_irq and spin_unlock_irqrestore to spin_unlock_irq.

2012-12-21dm raid1: remove impossible mempool_alloc error testMikulas Patocka1-5/+3
mempool_alloc can't fail if __GFP_WAIT is specified, so the condition that tests if read_record is non-NULL is always true. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
2012-12-21dm thin: emit ignore_discard in status when discards disabledMike Snitzer1-2/+4
If "ignore_discard" is specified when creating the thin pool device then discard support is disabled for that device. The pool device's status should reflect this fact rather than stating "no_discard_passdown" (which implies discards are enabled but passdown is disabled).

2012-12-21dm persistent data: fix nested btree deletionJoe Thornber2-3/+8
When deleting nested btrees, the code forgets to delete the innermost btree. The thin-metadata code serendipitously compensates for this by claiming there is one extra layer in the tree. This patch corrects both problems. Signed-off-by: Joe Thornber <ejt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com>
