[patch -mm 1/5] mqueue namespace : add struct mq_namespace

[Cedric Le Goater]

[-- Attachment #1: mq_namespace-add-mq_namespace.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 11181 bytes --]

From: Cedric Le Goater <clg-NmTC/0ZBporQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org>

This patch adds a struct mq_namespace holding the common attributes 
of the mqueue namespace. 

The current code is modified to use the default mqueue namespace 
object 'init_mq_ns' and to prepare the ground for futur dynamic 
objects.

Todo:
	- use CONFIG_NAMESPACE when next -mm is released

[patch -mm 2/5] mqueue namespace : add unshare support

[Cedric Le Goater]

[-- Attachment #1: mq_namespace-add-mq_namespace-to-nsproxy.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 6462 bytes --]

From: Cedric Le Goater <clg-NmTC/0ZBporQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org>

This patch includes the mqueue  namespace in the nsproxy object. It  
also adds the support of unshare() and clone() with a new clone flag 
CLONE_NEWMQ (1 bit left in the clone flags !)

CLONE_NEWMQ is required to be cloned or unshared along with CLONE_NEWNS.
This is to make sure that no user mounts of the internal mqueue fs
are left behind when the last task exits. 

It's totally harmless for the moment because the current code still 
uses the default mqueue namespace object 'init_mq_ns'

[patch -mm 3/5] mqueue namespace : add get_sb_single_per_data()

[Cedric Le Goater]

[-- Attachment #1: add-get_sb_single_per_data.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2611 bytes --]

From: Cedric Le Goater <clg-NmTC/0ZBporQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org>

This is a new helper routine very similar to get_sb_single() which 
uses the 'data' argument and the 's_fs_info' attribute of the 
super_block to create a single super_block per 'data' value.

if 'data' is a pointer to a namespace, it makes it easy to create
a single super_block per namespace. This is something we need for
the mqueue file system, and other single super_block internal
file systems.

Dave, can you review this one to make sure the helper routine 
belongs to fs/super.c ?

Thanks

[patch -mm 4/5] mqueue namespace : enable the namespace

[Cedric Le Goater]

[-- Attachment #1: mq_namespace-use-mq_namespace.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 3383 bytes --]

From: Cedric Le Goater <clg-NmTC/0ZBporQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org>

Move forward and start using the mqueue namespace.

The single super block mount of the file system is modified to allow 
one mount per namespace. This is achieved by storing the namespace 
in the super_block s_fs_info attribute.

[patch -mm 5/5] mqueue namespace : make sysctl work per namespace

[Cedric Le Goater]

[-- Attachment #1: mq_namespace-fix-sysctl.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2509 bytes --]

From: Cedric Le Goater <clg-NmTC/0ZBporQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org>

Largely inspired from ipc/ipc_sysctl.c

Todo: 
      - check CONFIG_* options
      - move code to ipc/mqueue_sysctl.c ?

Re: [patch -mm 1/5] mqueue namespace : add struct mq_namespace

[Kirill Korotaev]

Cedric,

how safe does it intersect with netlinks from network namespace?
I see mqueues can send netlink messages, have you checked how safe it is?

Thanks,
Kirill

a ref is taken on the 'struct sock' in the mq_notify() syscall and the
skbuff which will be send to notify the user is also allocated in the
mq_notify() syscall. So we should be in the same net namespace when we 
register the notification and when we notify. 

I hope the net guys can confirm or we will easily check in the next 
-lxc patchset which will merge this patchset with netns.
 
however, we have an issue with the signal notification in __do_notify()
we could kill a process in a different pid namespace.

So I took a quick look at the code as it is (before this patchset)
and the taking a reference to a socket and the taking a reference to
a struct pid should do the right thing when we intersect with other
namespaces.  It certainly does not look like a fundamental issue.

In practice the patchset as written  does conflict with the network
namespace work in the net-2.6.24 tree so some adjustments will need
to be made.

right. this should be covered when the pid namespace signal handling is 
complete. kill_pid_info() should fail to send a signal to a sibling or 
a parent pid namespace. 

I guess we should add a WARNING() to say that we're attempting to do so.

I think no more than fixing the CLONE flags in sched.h and the conflicts

Just want to clarify how a signal is sent to a parent ns.

	A process P1 sets itself up to be notified when a message arrives
	on a queue.

	P1 then clones P2 with CLONE_NEWPID.

	P2 writes to the message queue and thus signals P1

What should the semantics be here ?

I guess it makes less sense for two namespaces to be dependent on the same
message queue this way.  But, if P2 writes to the queue, technically, the
queue is not empty, so P1 should be notified, no ? 

This sounds similar to the SIGIO signal case (F_SETOWN). My understanding
was that we would notify whoever was set to receive the notification, even
if they were in a parent ns (again my reasoning was its based on the state
of a file).

IOW,  should we change kill_pid_info() ?  If the caller can 'see' the
'struct pid' they can signal it. The expectation was that callers would
call find_vpid() and thus only see processes in their namespace.

Ok.  Now I'm concerned.

I deliberately designed the initial pid namespace infrastructure to allow
mixing like this.  Because it is the right thing to do.

The expectation is that in general namespaces provide isolation simply
because you cannot see and thus cannot interact with other processes.
However isolation is not the purpose in life of namespaces and if you
use them in more creative ways mixing should work just fine.  But
you have to use all of the namespaces together, and you have
to carefully set things up to guarantee isolation.

The really challenging case to handle here  is what happens if we are
signaling to someone in a sibling pid namespace.  What do we set the
parent pid in the siginfo struct to.  I think we agreed that 0 (blame
the kernel) is the appropriate pid last time we talked about this.


I'm worried now that the concept of vpid has confused someone.  It
still doesn't feel right to me to call one pid value more or less
virtual then any other so the concept of a virtual pid doesn't make
sense to me.  The way I have always thought of it is:
- pid_nr(struct pid *) 
  The pid in the current pid namespace.
- __pid_nr(struct pid_namespace, struct pid *) 
  The pid in some specified pid namespace.

With struct pid being defined to be global and doing something
appropriate in all pid namespaces.

Thinking about this concern that Cedric raises is actually independent
of the mqueue namespace and seems to be totally a pid namespace thing.
Because the only way this happens if we happen to share the mqueue
namespace. (i.e. what we are doing now).

It's right for the mqueue namespace but wrong for the pid namespace because
we will possibly send a signal to a sibling pid namespace.

0 seems appropriate for signal coming from a parent namespace, yes. but

0 seems appropriate for a signal coming from a parent namespace, yes. but
here, we could be sending a signal from a child or sibling namespace.

Is there a way to catch this general issue (we have the same in sigio)
in the kill*(struct pid) routines ? spit a big warning when the
current->nsproxy->pid_ns is not a parent ?

Hmm.  I finally see the part of this that is problematic and
that we aren't currently handling.

The filling in of the signal info structure.  My gut feel says that
should be a struct pid reference.    We need to be very careful with
the siginfo cases, and si_pid.  Unless someone has built a mechanism
for dealing with this I haven't seen.

I still think the right approach here is that if the pid doesn't map
into the target processes pid namespace we should use 0.

I also strongly suspect that si_pid should be a struct pid and that we
should translate it in the receiving process if possible.

The SIGIO case is even trickier, although that may count as always
coming from the kernel so this doesn't come up.


In both cases what is really happening a process in a sibling
pid namespace is doing something and the kernel is telling us about
it.  So sending the signal is legitimate.

The difficulty is that the kernel can't express the process that did
something.  From my perspective that appears to be a fundamental
limitation, and our only real choice is to send 0.

We have a similar limitation with the uid namespace as well in this
case.

We can implement this easily by passing a struct pid.  And translating
just before we cross the kernel/user boundary.  And if it doesn't
translate use 0.  Basically this is just your check for seeing
if the destination pid namespace is the same or a parent of
the sending pid namespace.  That is what I always envisioned
being in __pid_nr().  As I don't think it makes any sense to map
pids from sibling pid namespaces.

The reason we want in general to do the translation at the
destination process is because we may be sending a signal
to a process group which could have processes in multiple
pid namespaces.

I think we have to decide on some limitations with signals and make sure 
that we cannot send a signal to a sibling pid namespace. This can occur
in some special namespaces unshare configuration which should never be used 
but to make sure, let's add a big WARNING when we detect such a pid namespace
violation.

If it is what you mean, I agree :)

I think you and Eric (and I) are disagreeing about those limitations.
You take it for granted that a sibling pidns is off limits for signals.
But the signal wasn't sent using a pid, but using a file (in SIGIO
case).  So since the fs was shared, the signal should be sent.  An
event happened, and the receiver wants to know about it.

seen that way I agree. 

si_code is set to SI_MESGQ, but what do we put in si_pid ? 0 ?

we could use the si_errno to pass extra info, like the sending process 
lives in a // world ...

Parallel world/universe :-)

I am assuming Cedric used that to refer to a sibling pid ns.

probably not. it would mean that the user is container aware. bad idea.

Remember we don't have to hide the fact that the user is in a
container.  Just enough to make it convenient, but not to the
point of going out of our way to try and hide the fact for no
other reason than to hide the fact.

Huh?

If we call sys_mq_notify and we become the owner then it should
not be a problem to send a signal to us.

I don't understand the problem that you are seeing.

Well the CLONE flag is a conflict with the network namespace.

I was hoping someone had managed to make message queues work
through the filesystem API and then this would just be a matter
of multiple mounts of a filesystem.

However given the syscalls and the rest I guess this really does
count as a separate namespace :(

Indeed. For the moment, this is for review because I'm waiting for a few 
namespace patches to go in -mm. When this time comes, I'll rebase.

I've added a small helper routine to handle the case of a single
super_block per namespace. I called it get_sb_single_per_data()

It could be used in pid namespace also and probably a few other fs.

And before I forget.

At least until someone has done an audit and we are certain we
have gotten all of the user space interfaces.

We need to Kconfig the whole thing so support creating one of these
things depends on CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL.

Once we have the code merged and have audited the merge result
we can remove the Kconfig and the CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL bit.

sure. I'm just waiting for pavel's new CONFIG_NAMESPACES* options 
to go in -mm.
