Eric W. Biederman b2e0d98705 userns: Implement unshare of the user namespace
- Add CLONE_THREAD to the unshare flags if CLONE_NEWUSER is selected
  As changing user namespaces is only valid if all there is only
  a single thread.
- Restore the code to add CLONE_VM if CLONE_THREAD is selected and
  the code to addCLONE_SIGHAND if CLONE_VM is selected.
  Making the constraints in the code clear.

Daniel Lezcano a77aea9201 cgroup: remove the ns_cgroup
The ns_cgroup is an annoying cgroup at the namespace / cgroup frontier and
leads to some problems:

  * cgroup creation is out-of-control
  * cgroup name can conflict when pids are looping
  * it is not possible to have a single process handling a lot of
    namespaces without falling in a exponential creation time
  * we may want to create a namespace without creating a cgroup

  The ns_cgroup was replaced by a compatibility flag 'clone_children',
  where a newly created cgroup will copy the parent cgroup values.
  The userspace has to manually create a cgroup and add a task to
  the 'tasks' file.

This patch removes the ns_cgroup as suggested in the following thread:

https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/containers/2009-June/018616.html

The 'cgroup_clone' function is removed because it is no longer used.

This is a userspace-visible change.  Commit 45531757b4 ("cgroup: notify
ns_cgroup deprecated") (merged into 2.6.27) caused the kernel to emit a
printk warning users that the feature is planned for removal.  Since that
time we have heard from XXX users who were affected by this.

Serge Hallyn 18b6e0414e User namespaces: set of cleanups (v2)
The user_ns is moved from nsproxy to user_struct, so that a struct
cred by itself is sufficient to determine access (which it otherwise
would not be).  Corresponding ecryptfs fixes (by David Howells) are
here as well.

Fix refcounting.  The following rules now apply:
        1. The task pins the user struct.
        2. The user struct pins its user namespace.
        3. The user namespace pins the struct user which created it.

User namespaces are cloned during copy_creds().  Unsharing a new user_ns
is no longer possible.  (We could re-add that, but it'll cause code
duplication and doesn't seem useful if PAM doesn't need to clone user
namespaces).

When a user namespace is created, its first user (uid 0) gets empty
keyrings and a clean group_info.

This incorporates a previous patch by David Howells.  Here
is his original patch description:

>I suggest adding the attached incremental patch.  It makes the following
>changes:
>
> (1) Provides a current_user_ns() macro to wrap accesses to current's user
>     namespace.
>
> (2) Fixes eCryptFS.
>
> (3) Renames create_new_userns() to create_user_ns() to be more consistent
>     with the other associated functions and because the 'new' in the name is

>
> (4) Moves the argument and permission checks made for CLONE_NEWUSER to the
>     beginning of do_fork() so that they're done prior to making any attempts
>     at allocation.
>
> (5) Calls create_user_ns() after prepare_creds(), and gives it the new creds

Serge E. Hallyn e885dcde75 cgroup_clone: use pid of newly created task for new cgroup
cgroup_clone creates a new cgroup with the pid of the task.  This works
correctly for unshare, but for clone cgroup_clone is called from
copy_namespaces inside copy_process, which happens before the new pid is
created.  As a result, the new cgroup was created with current's pid.
This patch:

	1. Moves the call inside copy_process to after the new pid
	   is created
	2. Passes the struct pid into ns_cgroup_clone (as it is not
	   yet attached to the task)
	3. Passes a name from ns_cgroup_clone() into cgroup_clone()
	   so as to keep cgroup_clone() itself simpler
	4. Uses pid_vnr() to get the process id value, so that the
	   pid used to name the new cgroup is always the pid as it
	   would be known to the task which did the cloning or
	   unsharing.  I think that is the most intuitive thing to
	   do.  This way, task t1 does clone(CLONE_NEWPID) to get
	   t2, which does clone(CLONE_NEWPID) to get t3, then the
	   cgroup for t3 will be named for the pid by which t2 knows
	   t3.

(Thanks to Dan Smith for finding the main bug)

Changelog:
	June 11: Incorporate Paul Menage's feedback:  don't pass
	         NULL to ns_cgroup_clone from unshare, and reduce
		 patch size by using 'nodename' in cgroup_clone.

Pavel Emelyanov cf7b708c8d Make access to task's nsproxy lighter
When someone wants to deal with some other taks's namespaces it has to lock
the task and then to get the desired namespace if the one exists.  This is
slow on read-only paths and may be impossible in some cases.

E.g.  Oleg recently noticed a race between unshare() and the (sent for
review in cgroups) pid namespaces - when the task notifies the parent it
has to know the parent's namespace, but taking the task_lock() is
impossible there - the code is under write locked tasklist lock.

On the other hand switching the namespace on task (daemonize) and releasing
the namespace (after the last task exit) is rather rare operation and we
can sacrifice its speed to solve the issues above.

The access to other task namespaces is proposed to be performed
like this:

     rcu_read_lock();
     nsproxy = task_nsproxy(tsk);
     if (nsproxy != NULL) {
             / *
               * work with the namespaces here
               * e.g. get the reference on one of them
               * /
     } / *
         * NULL task_nsproxy() means that this task is
         * almost dead (zombie)
         * /
     rcu_read_unlock();

This patch has passed the review by Eric and Oleg :) and,
of course, tested.

Serge E. Hallyn 858d72ead4 cgroups: implement namespace tracking subsystem
When a task enters a new namespace via a clone() or unshare(), a new cgroup
is created and the task moves into it.

This version names cgroups which are automatically created using
cgroup_clone() as "node_<pid>" where pid is the pid of the unsharing or
cloned process.  (Thanks Pavel for the idea) This is safe because if the
process unshares again, it will create

	/cgroups/(...)/node_<pid>/node_<pid>

The only possibilities (AFAICT) for a -EEXIST on unshare are

	1. pid wraparound
	2. a process fails an unshare, then tries again.

Case 1 is unlikely enough that I ignore it (at least for now).  In case 2, the
node_<pid> will be empty and can be rmdir'ed to make the subsequent unshare()
succeed.

Changelog:
	Name cloned cgroups as "node_<pid>".

Eric W. Biederman 213dd266d4 namespace: ensure clone_flags are always stored in an unsigned long
While working on unshare support for the network namespace I noticed we
were putting clone flags in an int.  Which is weird because the syscall
uses unsigned long and we at least need an unsigned to properly hold all of
the unshare flags.

So to make the code consistent, this patch updates the code to use
unsigned long instead of int for the clone flags in those places
where we get it wrong today.

Cedric Le Goater acce292c82 user namespace: add the framework
Basically, it will allow a process to unshare its user_struct table,
resetting at the same time its own user_struct and all the associated
accounting.

A new root user (uid == 0) is added to the user namespace upon creation.
Such root users have full privileges and it seems that theses privileges
should be controlled through some means (process capabilities ?)

The unshare is not included in this patch.

Changes since [try #4]:
	- Updated get_user_ns and put_user_ns to accept NULL, and
	  get_user_ns to return the namespace.

Changes since [try #3]:
	- moved struct user_namespace to files user_namespace.{c,h}

Changes since [try #2]:
	- removed struct user_namespace* argument from find_user()

Changes since [try #1]:
	- removed struct user_namespace* argument from find_user()
	- added a root_user per user namespace

Badari Pulavarty e3222c4ecc Merge sys_clone()/sys_unshare() nsproxy and namespace handling
sys_clone() and sys_unshare() both makes copies of nsproxy and its associated
namespaces.  But they have different code paths.

This patch merges all the nsproxy and its associated namespace copy/clone
handling (as much as possible).  Posted on container list earlier for
feedback.

- Create a new nsproxy and its associated namespaces and pass it back to
  caller to attach it to right process.

- Changed all copy_*_ns() routines to return a new copy of namespace
  instead of attaching it to task->nsproxy.

- Moved the CAP_SYS_ADMIN checks out of copy_*_ns() routines.

- Removed unnessary !ns checks from copy_*_ns() and added BUG_ON()
  just incase.

- Get rid of all individual unshare_*_ns() routines and make use of
  copy_*_ns() instead.

Serge E. Hallyn 7a238fcba0 [PATCH] namespaces: fix exit race by splitting exit
Fix exit race by splitting the nsproxy putting into two pieces.  First
piece reduces the nsproxy refcount.  If we dropped the last reference, then
it puts the mnt_ns, and returns the nsproxy as a hint to the caller.  Else
it returns NULL.  The second piece of exiting task namespaces sets
tsk->nsproxy to NULL, and drops the references to other namespaces and
frees the nsproxy only if an nsproxy was passed in.

A little awkward and should probably be reworked, but hopefully it fixes
the NFS oops.

Eric W. Biederman 5f8442edfb [PATCH] Revert "[PATCH] identifier to nsproxy"
This reverts commit 373beb35cd.

No one is using this identifier yet.  The purpose of this identifier is to
export nsproxy to user space which is wrong.  nsproxy is an internal
implementation optimization, which should keep our fork times from getting
slower as we increase the number of global namespaces you don't have to
share.

Adding a global identifier like this is inappropriate because it makes
namespaces inherently non-recursive, greatly limiting what we can do with
them in the future.

Serge E. Hallyn 4865ecf131 [PATCH] namespaces: utsname: implement utsname namespaces
This patch defines the uts namespace and some manipulators.
Adds the uts namespace to task_struct, and initializes a
system-wide init namespace.

It leaves a #define for system_utsname so sysctl will compile.
This define will be removed in a separate patch.

Serge E. Hallyn 1651e14e28 [PATCH] namespaces: incorporate fs namespace into nsproxy
This moves the mount namespace into the nsproxy.  The mount namespace count
now refers to the number of nsproxies point to it, rather than the number of
tasks.  As a result, the unshare_namespace() function in kernel/fork.c no
longer checks whether it is being shared.

Serge E. Hallyn ab516013ad [PATCH] namespaces: add nsproxy
This patch adds a nsproxy structure to the task struct.  Later patches will
move the fs namespace pointer into this structure, and introduce a new utsname
namespace into the nsproxy.

The vserver and openvz functionality, then, would be implemented in large part
by virtualizing/isolating more and more resources into namespaces, each
contained in the nsproxy.
