This cycle we added support for mounting overlayfs on top of idmapped mounts.
Recently I've started looking into potential corner cases when trying to add
additional tests and I noticed that reporting for POSIX ACLs is currently wrong
when using idmapped layers with overlayfs mounted on top of it.

I'm going to give a rather detailed explanation to both the origin of the
problem and the solution.

Let's assume the user creates the following directory layout and they have a
rootfs /var/lib/lxc/c1/rootfs. The files in this rootfs are owned as you would
expect files on your host system to be owned. For example, ~/.bashrc for your
regular user would be owned by 1000:1000 and /root/.bashrc would be owned by
0:0. IOW, this is just regular boring filesystem tree on an ext4 or xfs
filesystem.

The user chooses to set POSIX ACLs using the setfacl binary granting the user
with uid 4 read, write, and execute permissions for their .bashrc file:

        setfacl -m u:4:rwx /var/lib/lxc/c2/rootfs/home/ubuntu/.bashrc

Now they to expose the whole rootfs to a container using an idmapped mount. So
they first create:

        mkdir -pv /vol/contpool/{ctrover,merge,lowermap,overmap}
        mkdir -pv /vol/contpool/ctrover/{over,work}

The user now creates an idmapped mount for the rootfs:

        mount-idmapped/mount-idmapped --map-mount=b:0:10000000:65536 \
                                      /var/lib/lxc/c2/rootfs \
                                      /vol/contpool/lowermap

This for example makes it so that /var/lib/lxc/c2/rootfs/home/ubuntu/.bashrc
which is owned by uid and gid 1000 as being owned by uid and gid 10001000 at
/vol/contpool/lowermap/home/ubuntu/.bashrc.

Similarly, the user creates another idmapped mount using the same idmapping:

        mount-idmapped/mount-idmapped --map-mount=b:0:10000000:65536 \
                                      /vol/contpool/ctrover/ \
                                      /vol/contpool/overmap/

Assume the user wants to expose these idmapped mounts through an overlayfs
mount to a container.

       mount -t overlay overlay                      \
             -o lowerdir=/vol/contpool/lowermap,     \
                upperdir=/vol/contpool/overmap/over, \
                workdir=/vol/contpool/overmap/work   \
             /vol/contpool/merge

The user can do this in two ways:

(1) Mount overlayfs in the initial user namespace and expose it to the
    container.
(2) Mount overlayfs on top of the idmapped mounts inside of the container's
    user namespace.

Let's assume the user chooses the (1) option and mounts overlayfs on the host
and then changes into a container which uses the idmapping 0:10000000:65536
which is the same used for the two idmapped mounts.

Now the user tries to retrieve the POSIX ACLs using the getfacl command

        getfacl -n /vol/contpool/lowermap/home/ubuntu/.bashrc

and to their surprise they see:

        # file: vol/contpool/merge/home/ubuntu/.bashrc
        # owner: 1000
        # group: 1000
        user::rw-
        user:4294967295:rwx
        group::r--
        mask::rwx
        other::r--

indicating the the uid wasn't correctly translated according to the idmapped
mount. The problem is how we currently translate POSIX ACLs. Let's inspect the
callchain in this example:

        idmapped mount /vol/contpool/merge:      0:10000000:65536
        caller's idmapping:                      0:10000000:65536
        overlayfs idmapping (ofs->creator_cred): 0:0:4k /* initial idmapping */

        sys_getxattr()
        -> path_getxattr()
           -> getxattr()
              -> do_getxattr()
                  |> vfs_getxattr()
                  |  -> __vfs_getxattr()
                  |     -> handler->get == ovl_posix_acl_xattr_get()
                  |        -> ovl_xattr_get()
                  |           -> vfs_getxattr()
                  |              -> __vfs_getxattr()
                  |                 -> handler->get() /* lower filesystem callback */
                  |> posix_acl_fix_xattr_to_user()
                     {
                              4 = make_kuid(&init_user_ns, 4);
                              4 = mapped_kuid_fs(&init_user_ns /* no idmapped mount */, 4);
                              /* FAILURE */
                             -1 = from_kuid(0:10000000:65536 /* caller's idmapping */, 4);
                     }

If the user chooses to use option (2) and mounts overlayfs on top of idmapped
mounts inside the container things don't look that much better:

        idmapped mount /vol/contpool/merge:      0:10000000:65536
        caller's idmapping:                      0:10000000:65536
        overlayfs idmapping (ofs->creator_cred): 0:10000000:65536

        sys_getxattr()
        -> path_getxattr()
           -> getxattr()
              -> do_getxattr()
                  |> vfs_getxattr()
                  |  -> __vfs_getxattr()
                  |     -> handler->get == ovl_posix_acl_xattr_get()
                  |        -> ovl_xattr_get()
                  |           -> vfs_getxattr()
                  |              -> __vfs_getxattr()
                  |                 -> handler->get() /* lower filesystem callback */
                  |> posix_acl_fix_xattr_to_user()
                     {
                              4 = make_kuid(&init_user_ns, 4);
                              4 = mapped_kuid_fs(&init_user_ns, 4);
                              /* FAILURE */
                             -1 = from_kuid(0:10000000:65536 /* caller's idmapping */, 4);
                     }

As is easily seen the problem arises because the idmapping of the lower mount
isn't taken into account as all of this happens in do_gexattr(). But
do_getxattr() is always called on an overlayfs mount and inode and thus cannot
possible take the idmapping of the lower layers into account.

This problem is similar for fscaps but there the translation happens as part of
vfs_getxattr() already. Let's walk through an fscaps overlayfs callchain:

        setcap 'cap_net_raw+ep' /var/lib/lxc/c2/rootfs/home/ubuntu/.bashrc

The expected outcome here is that we'll receive the cap_net_raw capability as
we are able to map the uid associated with the fscap to 0 within our container.
IOW, we want to see 0 as the result of the idmapping translations.

If the user chooses option (1) we get the following callchain for fscaps:

        idmapped mount /vol/contpool/merge:      0:10000000:65536
        caller's idmapping:                      0:10000000:65536
        overlayfs idmapping (ofs->creator_cred): 0:0:4k /* initial idmapping */

                                                    -> handler->get == /* lower filesystem callback */

We can see how the translation happens correctly in those cases as the
conversion happens within the vfs_getxattr() helper.

For POSIX ACLs we need to do something similar. However, in contrast to fscaps
we cannot apply the fix directly to the kernel internal posix acl data
structure as this would alter the cached values and would also require a rework
of how we currently deal with POSIX ACLs in general which almost never take the
filesystem idmapping into account (the noteable exception being FUSE but even
there the implementation is special) and instead retrieve the raw values based
on the initial idmapping.

The correct values are then generated right before returning to userspace. The
fix for this is to move taking the mount's idmapping into account directly in
vfs_getxattr() instead of having it be part of posix_acl_fix_xattr_to_user().

To this end we split out two small and unexported helpers
posix_acl_getxattr_idmapped_mnt() and posix_acl_setxattr_idmapped_mnt(). The
former to be called in vfs_getxattr() and the latter to be called in
vfs_setxattr().

Let's go back to the original example. Assume the user chose option (1) and
mounted overlayfs on top of idmapped mounts on the host:

        idmapped mount /vol/contpool/merge:      0:10000000:65536
        caller's idmapping:                      0:10000000:65536
        overlayfs idmapping (ofs->creator_cred): 0:0:4k /* initial idmapping */

Hey,

This passes the following tests:

sudo ./check -g quick
sudo ./check -g idmapped # always running that even though it's part of -g quick
sudo ./check -overlay
sudo ./check -overlay # export IDMAPPED_MOUNTS=true
sudo ./check -overlay -g overlay/union
sudo ./runltp # running the full LTP testsuite

We don't need a fixes tag since this work is only going to be released with v5.19.

Thanks!
Christian

Hi Christian,

Trying to understand the problem and solution. I am wondering
why do we still have posix_acl_fix_xattr_to_user().

Shouldn't posix_acl_getxattr_idmapped_mnt() (Or whatever name is
appropriate), take care of doing all the translations. Something along
the lines of cap_inode_getsecurity(). 

IOW, I am viewing it as if posix_acl_getxattr_idmapped_mnt() takes
care of doing all the translations for each layer. And it is called
twice for stacked filesystem. So for the example when overaly is mounted
from outside the user_ns.

	idmapped mount lower:      		0:10000000:65536
	caller's idmapping:                      0:10000000:65536
	overlayfs idmapping (ofs->creator_cred): 0:0:4k /* initial idmapping */

Overlay layer translations
	10000004 = make_kuid(&init_user_ns, 10000004);
	/* Overlayfs mount has no idmapping */
	10000004 = mapped_kuid_fs(&init_user_ns, &init_user_ns, 10000004);
	/* Map into caller's idmapping. And caller in this case is process
	 * inside user namespace */
	4 = from_kuid(0:10000000:65536, 10000004);

Lower layer translations
	4 = make_kuid(&init_user_ns, 4);
	10000004 = mapped_kuid_fs(0:10000000:65536 /* lower idmapped mount */, &init_user_ns, 4);
	/* Map into caller's idmapping. And caller in this case is mounter
	 * of overlayfs which is init_user_ns */
	10000004 = from_kuid(&init_user_ns, 10000004);

Above kind of makes more sense to me based on your documentation here.

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/filesystems/idmappings.html

But there is a good chance that I am missing something.

And when overlayfs is mounted from inside user namepsace, then
translations could look as follows.

	idmapped mount lower:      		0:10000000:65536
	caller's idmapping:                      0:10000000:65536
	overlayfs idmapping (ofs->creator_cred): 0:10000000:65536

Overlay layer translations
	/* Overlayfs was mounted from inside user namespace */
	10000004 = make_kuid(0:10000000:65536, 4);
	/* Overlayfs mount has no idmapping */
	10000004 = mapped_kuid_fs(&init_user_ns, 0:10000000:65536, 10000004);
	/* Map into caller's idmapping. And caller in this case is process
	 * inside user namespace */
	4 = from_kuid(0:10000000:65536, 10000004);

Lower layer translations
	4 = make_kuid(&init_user_ns, 4);
	10000004 = mapped_kuid_fs(0:10000000:65536 /* lower idmapped mount */, &init_user_ns, 4);
	/* Map into caller's idmapping. And caller in this case is mounter
	 * of overlayfs which was inside user namespace */
	4 = from_kuid(0:10000000:65536, 10000004);



> And similarly if the user chooses option (1) and mounted overayfs on top of

You probably mean if "user chooses option (2)". And following example
also seems to be for option 1 and not option 2.

Thanks

In this example, overlayfs is mounted from inside the user namespace,
so overlay filesystem idmappings are not init_user_ns. Should this be
following instead.

                                10000004 = make_kuid(&init_user_ns, 10000004);

I initially had the same idea as you had. But I alluded to a problem
with this in the following section of the commit message:

        of how we currently deal with POSIX ACLs in general which almost never take the
        filesystem idmapping into account (the noteable exception being FUSE but even

First, let's consider a tmpfs mounted inside of a container with the
current translation routines:

As you can see in line getxattr-8, getxattr-15 as well as setxattr-12
and setxattr-21 it's always the initial_idmapping that is used, never
the idmapping of the filesystem. Iow, even for a tmpfs mounted in a
container we'd use the initial_idmapping to prepare the ACLs for the
filesystem. 

But now let's consider a tmpfs mounted inside of a container with your
proposed translation routines where this causes things to break:
======================================================================

29                                  }

16                         -1 = make_kuid(0:10000000:65536, 10000004);
17                         -1 = mapped_kuid_fs(&init_user_ns, &init_user_ns, 10000004);
18                         /* caller_idmapping */
19                         -1 = from_kuid(0:10000000:65536, 10000004);
20                 }

So if we start to take the fs_idmapping into account in getxattr-15 and
setxattr-13 we will fail to create or retrieve ACLs for tmpfs mounted in
containers.

Now, the reason for this is that posix_acl_{from,to}_xattr() in line
getxattr-8 and setxattr-19 don't operate on the fs_idmapping but always
on the initial_idmapping.

I considered switching posix_acl_{from,to}_xattr() to operate on the
fs_idmapping to make the translation routines work the way you
described:

21              }

Now your proposal works. But I thought two things spoke against it but
I'm happy to be convinced otherwise. First, the change is tree-wide and
subtle.

Second, this would mean that in both line getxattr-10 and line
setxattr-11 we'd have a raw uid and gid value - which is 4 in this
example - stored instead of the "mapped" 10000004 until the fs_idmapping
is reapplied in getxattr-15 and setxattr-21.

(Technically, this is currently a subtle type confusion but one that
we've tolerated for a long time. The 10000004 isn't really a {g,u}id
it's a k{g,u}id which is stored in the form of a {g,u}id in the posix
acl uapi struct which doesn't carre {g,u}ids. Otherwise we could just
carry the k{g,u}ids generated via caller_idmapping directly...)

All of this is probably not a huge deal and we could change it. And I'd
consider that in the future but for now the safer way to do this from my
vantage point was to keep the posix_acl_{from,to}_xattr() helpers as
they are and just move the idmapped mount translations into vfs_setxattr().

Iow, within vfs_setxattr() we'd continue to purely deal with non-caller
properties such as idmapped mounts. I'm happy to pursue other approaches
though including the one you proposed if you think it's worth it though.

(Sorry for the lenghty mail... Hopefully I didn't make any mnistakes in
my thinking.)
