[PATCH v3 1/4] fs, net: Standardize on file_receive helper to move fds across processes

[PATCH v3 1/4] fs, net: Standardize on file_receive helper to move fds across processes

[Sargun Dhillon]

Previously there were two chunks of code where the logic to receive file
descriptors was duplicated in net. The compat version of copying
file descriptors via SCM_RIGHTS did not have logic to update cgroups.
Logic to change the cgroup data was added in:
commit 48a87cc26c13 ("net: netprio: fd passed in SCM_RIGHTS datagram not set correctly")
commit d84295067fc7 ("net: net_cls: fd passed in SCM_RIGHTS datagram not set correctly")

This was not copied to the compat path. This commit fixes that, and thus
should be cherry-picked into stable.

This introduces a helper (file_receive) which encapsulates the logic for
handling calling security hooks as well as manipulating cgroup information.
This helper can then be used other places in the kernel where file
descriptors are copied between processes

I tested cgroup classid setting on both the compat (x32) path, and the
native path to ensure that when moving the file descriptor the classid
is set.

This is all just a remote version of fd_install(), yet it deviates from
fd_install()'s semantics and naming. That's not great imho. What about
naming this something like:

fd_install_received()

and move the get_file() out of there so it has the same semantics as
fd_install(). It seems rather dangerous to have a function like
fd_install() that consumes a reference once it returned and another
version of this that is basically the same thing but doesn't consume a
reference because it takes its own. Seems an invitation for confusion.
Does that make sense?

We have some competing opinions on this, I guess. What I really don't
like is the copy/pasting of the get_unused_fd_flags() and
put_unused_fd() needed by (nearly) all the callers. If it's a helper, it
should help. Specifically, I'd like to see this:

int file_receive(int fd, unsigned long flags, struct file *file,
		 int __user *fdptr)
{
	struct socket *sock;
	int err;

	err = security_file_receive(file);
	if (err)
		return err;

	if (fd < 0) {
		/* Install new fd. */
		int new_fd;

		err = get_unused_fd_flags(flags);
		if (err < 0)
			return err;
		new_fd = err;

		/* Copy fd to any waiting user memory. */
		if (fdptr) {
			err = put_user(new_fd, fdptr);
			if (err < 0) {
				put_unused_fd(new_fd);
				return err;
			}
		}
		fd_install(new_fd, get_file(file));
		fd = new_fd;
	} else {
		/* Replace existing fd. */
		err = replace_fd(fd, file, flags);
		if (err)
			return err;
	}

	/* Bump the cgroup usage counts. */
	sock = sock_from_file(fd, &err);
	if (sock) {
		sock_update_netprioidx(&sock->sk->sk_cgrp_data);
		sock_update_classid(&sock->sk->sk_cgrp_data);
	}

	return fd;
}

If everyone else *really* prefers keeping the get_unused_fd_flags() /
put_unused_fd() stuff outside the helper, then I guess I'll give up,
but I think it is MUCH cleaner this way -- all 4 users trim down lots
of code duplication.

This seems weird that the function has two different return mechanisms
depending on the value of fdptr, especially given that behaviour is
only invoked by SCM, whereas the other callers (addfd, and pidfd_getfd)
just want the FD value returned.

Won't this produce a "bad" result, if the user does:

struct msghdr msg = {};
struct cmsghdr *cmsg;
struct iovec io = {
	.iov_base = &c,
	.iov_len = 1,
};

msg.msg_iov = &io;
msg.msg_iovlen = 1;
msg.msg_control = NULL;
msg.msg_controllen = sizeof(buf);

recvmsg(sock, &msg, 0);
----

This will end up installing the FD, but it will efault, when
scm_detach_fds tries to fill out the rest of the info. 

I mean, we can easily solve this with a null pointer check
in scm_detach_fds, but my fear is that user n will forget
to do this, and make a mistake.

Maybe it would be nice to have:

/* Receives file descriptor and installs it in userspace at uptr. */
static inline intfile_receive_user(struct file *file, unsigned long flags,
				   int __user *fdptr)
{
	if (fdptr == NULL)
		return -EFAULT;

	return __file_receive(-1, flags, file, uptr);
}

And then just let pidfd_getfd, and seccomp_addfd call __file_receive
directly, or offer a different helper like:

static inline file_receive(long fd, struct *file, unsigned long flags)
{
	return __file_receive(fd, flags, file, NULL);
}

I still fail to see what this whole put_user() handling buys us at all
and why this function needs to be anymore complicated then simply:

fd_install_received(int fd, struct file *file)
{
	security_file_receive(file);
 
 	sock = sock_from_file(fd, &err);
 	if (sock) {
 		sock_update_netprioidx(&sock->sk->sk_cgrp_data);
 		sock_update_classid(&sock->sk->sk_cgrp_data);
 	}

	fd_install();
	return;
}

exactly like fd_install() but for received files.

For scm you can fail somewhere in the middle of putting any number of
file descriptors so you're left in a state with only a subset of
requested file descriptors installed so it's not really useful there.
And if you manage to install an fd but then fail to put_user() it
userspace can simply check it's fds via proc and has to anyway on any
scm message error. If you fail an scm message userspace better check
their fds.
For seccomp maybe but even there I doubt it and I still maintain that
userspace screwing this up is on them which is how we do this most of
the time. And for pidfd_getfd() this whole put_user() thing doesn't
matter at all.

It's much easier and clearer if we simply have a fd_install() -
fd_install_received() parallelism where we follow an established
convention. _But_ if that blocks you from making this generic enough
then at least the replace_fd() vs fd_install() logic seems it shouldn't
be in there. 

And the function name really needs to drive home the point that it
installs an fd into the tasks fdtable no matter what version you go
with. file_receive() is really not accurate enough for this at all.

There is a similar error path in the sctp 'peeloff' code.
If the put_user() fails it currently closes the fd before
returning -EFAULT.

I'm not at all sure this is helpful.
The application can't tell whether the SIGSEGV happened on the
copyin of the parameters or the copyout of the result.

ISTM that if the application passes an address that cannot
be written to it deserves what it gets - typically an fd it
doesn't know the number of.

What is important is that the kernel data is consistent.
So when the process exits the fd is closed and all the resources
are released.

	}

	sock = sock_from_file(file, &err);
	if (sock) {
		sock_update_netprioidx(&sock->sk->sk_cgrp_data);
		sock_update_classid(&sock->sk->sk_cgrp_data);
	}

	return fd;

out_unlock:
	spin_unlock(&files->file_lock);
	return err;
}

---

then the code in scm.c:
err = file_receive(-1, flags, fp[i]);
if (err < 0)
	break;

new_fd = err;
err = put_user(new_fd, cmfptr);
if (err) {
	put_unused_fd(new_fd);
	break;
}

/* Bump the usage count and install the file. */
fd_install(new_fd, get_file(fp[i]));

And addfd:
ret = file_receive(addfd->fd, addfd->flags, addfd->file);
if (ret >= 0)
	fd_install(ret, get_file(addfd->file));
addfd->ret = ret;

----

This way there is:
1. No "put_user" logic in file_receive
2. Minimal (single) branching logic, unless there's something in between
   the file_receive and installing the FD, such as put_user.
3. Doesn't implement fd_install, so there's no ambiguity about it being
   file_install_received vs. just the receive logic.

IIUC, this means we can get the fdt into a state of an open fd with a
NULL file... is that okay? That feels like something Al might rebel at.

This seems like we're duplicating some checks and missing others -- I
really think we need to do this using the existing primitives. But I'd
really like some review or commentary from Al. We can do this a bunch of
ways, and I'd like to know which way looks best to him. :(

I still wonder if we should refactor SCM_RIGHTS to just delay put_user
failures, which would simplify a bunch. It's a behavior change, but it
seems from Al and Jann that it just shouldn't matter. (And if it does,
we'll hear about it.)

I'm looking at __scm_install_fd() and I wonder what specifically you
mean by that? The put_user() seems to be placed such that the install
occurrs only if it succeeded. Sure, it only handles a single fd but
whatever. Userspace knows that already. Just look at systemd when a msg
fails:

I see 4 cases of the same code pattern (get_unused_fd_flags(),
sock_update_*(), fd_install()), one of them has this difficult put_user()
in the middle, and one of them has a potential replace_fd() instead of
the get_used/fd_install. So, to me, it makes sense to have a helper that
encapsulates the common work that each of those call sites has to do,
which I keep cringing at all these suggestions that leave portions of it
outside the helper.

If it's too ugly to keep the put_user() in the helper, then we can try
what was suggested earlier, and just totally rework the failure path for
SCM_RIGHTS.

LOL. And while we were debating this, hch just went and cleaned stuff
up:

2618d530dd8b ("net/scm: cleanup scm_detach_fds")

So, um, yeah, now my proposal is actually even closer to what we already
have there. We just add the replace_fd() logic to __scm_install_fd() and
we're done with it.

I'm fairly sure this introduces a bug[1] if the user does:

struct msghdr msg = {};
struct cmsghdr *cmsg;
struct iovec io = {
	.iov_base = &c,
	.iov_len = 1,
};

msg.msg_iov = &io;
msg.msg_iovlen = 1;
msg.msg_control = NULL;
msg.msg_controllen = sizeof(buf);

recvmsg(sock, &msg, 0);

They will have the FD installed, no error message, but FD number wont be written 
to memory AFAICT. If two FDs are passed, you will get an efault. They will both
be installed, but memory wont be written to. Maybe instead of 0, make it a
poison pointer, or -1 instead?

-----
As an aside, all of this junk should be dropped:
+	ret = get_user(size, &uaddfd->size);
+	if (ret)
+		return ret;
+
+	ret = copy_struct_from_user(&addfd, sizeof(addfd), uaddfd, size);
+	if (ret)
+		return ret;

and the size member of the seccomp_notif_addfd struct. I brought this up 
off-list with Tycho that ioctls have the size of the struct embedded in them. We 
should just use that. The ioctl definition is based on this[2]:
#define _IOC(dir,type,nr,size) \
	(((dir)  << _IOC_DIRSHIFT) | \
	 ((type) << _IOC_TYPESHIFT) | \
	 ((nr)   << _IOC_NRSHIFT) | \
	 ((size) << _IOC_SIZESHIFT))


We should just use copy_from_user for now. In the future, we can either 
introduce new ioctl names for new structs, or extract the size dynamically from 
the ioctl (and mask it out on the switch statement in seccomp_notify_ioctl.

----
+#define SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ADDFD	SECCOMP_IOR(3,	\
+						struct seccomp_notif_addfd)

Lastly, what I believe to be a small mistake, it should be SECCOMP_IOW, based on 
the documentation in ioctl.h -- "_IOW means userland is writing and kernel is 
reading."

IMHO if the buffer isn't big enough the nothing should happen.
(or maybe a few of the fds be returned and the others left for later.)

OTOH if the user passed an invalid address then installing the fd
and returning EFAULT (and hence SIGSEGV) seems reasonable.
Properly written apps just don't do that.

In essence the 'copy_to_user' is done by the wrapper code.
The code filling in the CMSG buffer can be considered to be
writing a kernel buffer.

IIRC other kernels (eg NetBSD) do the copies for ioctl() requests
in the ioctl syscall wrapper.
The IOW/IOR/IOWR flags have to be right.

Yeah, this seems like it'd make a lot more sense (and would have easily
caught the IOR/IOW issue pointed out later in the thread). I wonder how
insane it would be to try to fix that globally in the kernel...

Seems like a good idea to me.
(Even though I'll need to fix our 'out of tree' modules.)

Unlike [sg]etsockopt() at least the buffer is bounded to 1k.

But you'd really need to add new kernel_ioctl() entry points
before deprecating the existing ones a release or two later.

With a bit of luck there aren't any drivers ported from SYSV that
just treat the ioctl command as a 32bit transparent value and
the argument as an integer.

I actually suspect that BSD added IOW (etc) in the 16bit to 32bit port.
The kernel copies being moved to the syscall stub at the same time.
Since Linux has only ever been 32bit and uses IOW is it actually odd
that Linus didn't do the copies in the stub.

Hmmm. I see what you mean -- SCM_RIGHTS effectively _requires_ a valid
__user pointer, so we can't use NULL to indicate "we don't want this".
I'm not sure I can pass this through directly at all, though.

Oooooh. Yeah; good catch. Uhm, that means SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ID_VALID
is wrong too, yes? Tycho, Christian, how disruptive would this be to
fix? (Perhaps support both and deprecate the IOR version at some point
in the future?)

Looks good to me. If we ever change the size of this struct, we can do the work 
then to copy_struct_from_user.

I think at a minimum we should change the uapi, and accept both (for now). Maybe 
a pr_warn_once telling people not to use the old one.

I can do the patch, if you want.

We have custom defines in our source code, i.e.
#define SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ID_VALID  SECCOMP_IOR(2, __u64)
so ideally we'd have a SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ID_VALID_V2

Does that sound ok?

Why not change the public API in seccomp.h to:
#define SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ID_VALID	SECCOMP_IOW(2, __u64)

And then in seccomp.c:
#define SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ID_VALID_OLD	SECCOMP_IOR(2, __u64)
static long seccomp_notify_ioctl(struct file *file, unsigned int cmd,
				 unsigned long arg)
{
	struct seccomp_filter *filter = file->private_data;
	void __user *buf = (void __user *)arg;

	switch (cmd) {
	case SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_RECV:
		return seccomp_notify_recv(filter, buf);
	case SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_SEND:
		return seccomp_notify_send(filter, buf);
	case SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ID_VALID_OLD:
		pr_warn_once("Detected usage of legacy (incorrect) version of seccomp notifier notif_id_valid ioctl\n");
	case SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ID_VALID:
		return seccomp_notify_id_valid(filter, buf);
	default:
		return -EINVAL;
	}
}
---- 

So, both will work fine, and whenevery anyone recompiles, or picks up new 
headers, they will start calling the "right" one without a code change, and
we wont break any userspace.

Why does it matter that the ioctl() has the size of the struct embedded
within? Afaik, the kernel itself doesn't do anything with that size. It
merely checks that the size is not pathological and it does so at
compile time.

#ifdef __CHECKER__
#define _IOC_TYPECHECK(t) (sizeof(t))
#else
/* provoke compile error for invalid uses of size argument */
extern unsigned int __invalid_size_argument_for_IOC;
#define _IOC_TYPECHECK(t) \
	((sizeof(t) == sizeof(t[1]) && \
	  sizeof(t) < (1 << _IOC_SIZEBITS)) ? \
	  sizeof(t) : __invalid_size_argument_for_IOC)
#endif

The size itself is not verified at runtime. copy_struct_from_user()
still makes sense at least if we're going to allow expanding the struct
in the future.

Leaving that aside, the proposed direction here seems to mean that any
change to the struct itself will immediately mean a new ioctl() but
afaict, that also means a new struct. Since when you simply extend the
struct for the sake of the new ioctl you also change the size for the
ioctl.

Sure, you can simply treat the struct coming through the old ioctl as
being "capped" by e.g. hiding the size as suggested but then the gain
by having two separate ioctls is 0 compared to simply versioning the
struct with an explicit size member since the size encoded in the ioctl
and the actual size of the struct don't line up anymore which is the
only plus I can see for relying on _IOC_SIZE(). All this manages to do
then is to make it more annoying for userspace since they now need to
maintain multiple ioctls(). And if you have - however unlikely - say
three different ioctls all to be used with a different struct size of
the same struct I now need to know which ioctl() goes with which size of
the struct (I guess you could append the size to the ioctl name?
*shudder*). If you have the size in the struct itself you don't need to
care about any of that.
Maybe I'm not making sense or I misunderstand what's going on though.

Right, but if we simply change our headers and extend the struct, it will break 
all existing programs compiled against those headers. In order to avoid that, if 
we intend on extending this struct by appending to it, we need to have a 
backwards compatibility mechanism. Just having copy_struct_from_user isn't 
enough. The data structure either must be fixed size, or we need a way to handle 
multiple ioctl numbers derived from headers with different sized struct arguments

The two approaches I see are:
1. use more indirection. This has previous art in drm[1]. That's look
something like this:

struct seccomp_notif_addfd_ptr {
	__u64 size;
	__u64 addr;
}

... And then it'd be up to us to dereference the addr and copy struct from user.

2. Expose one ioctl to the user, many internally

e.g., public api:

struct seccomp_notif {
	__u64 id;
	__u64 pid;
	struct seccomp_data;
	__u64 fancy_new_field;
}

#define SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_RECV	SECCOMP_IOWR(0, struct seccomp_notif)

internally:
struct seccomp_notif_v1 {
	__u64 id;
	__u64 pid;
	struct seccomp_data;
}

struct seccomp_notif_v2 {
	__u64 id;
	__u64 pid;
	struct seccomp_data;
	__u64 fancy_new_field;
}

and we can switch like this:
	switch (cmd) {
	/* for example. We actually have to do this for any struct we intend to 
	 * extend to get proper backwards compatibility
	 */
	case SECCOMP_IOWR(0, struct seccomp_notif_v1)
		return seccomp_notify_recv(filter, buf, sizeof(struct seccomp_notif_v1));
	case SECCOMP_IOWR(0, struct seccomp_notif_v2)
		return seccomp_notify_recv(filter, buf, sizeof(struct seccomp_notif_v3));
...
	case SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_SEND:
		return seccomp_notify_send(filter, buf);
	case SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ID_VALID:
		return seccomp_notify_id_valid(filter, buf);
	default:
		return -EINVAL;
	}

This has the downside that programs compiled against more modern kernel headers 
will break on older kernels.

3. We can take the approach you suggested.

#define UNSIZED(cmd)	(cmd & ~(_IOC_SIZEMASK << _IOC_SIZESHIFT)
static long seccomp_notify_ioctl(struct file *file, unsigned int cmd,
				 unsigned long arg)
{
	struct seccomp_filter *filter = file->private_data;
	void __user *buf = (void __user *)arg;
	int size = _IOC_SIZE(cmd);
	cmd = UNSIZED(cmd);

	switch (cmd) {
	/* for example. We actually have to do this for any struct we intend to 
	 * extend to get proper backwards compatibility
	 */
	case UNSIZED(SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_RECV):
		return seccomp_notify_recv(filter, buf, size);
...
	case SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_SEND:
		return seccomp_notify_send(filter, buf);
	case SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ID_VALID:
		return seccomp_notify_id_valid(filter, buf);
	default:
		return -EINVAL;
	}
}

I don't understand why userspace has to have any knowledge of this. As soon as 
we add the code above, and we use copy_struct_from_user based on _that_ size,
userspace will get free upgrades. If they are compiling against an older header
than the kernel, size will return a smaller number, and thus we will zero
out our trailing bits, and if their number is bigger, we just check their
bits are appropriately zeroed.

This approach would be forwards-and-backwards compatible.

There's a little bit of prior art here as well [2]. The approach is that
we effectively do the thing we had earlier with passing a size with
copy_struct_from_user, but instead of the size being embedded in the struct,
it's embedded in the ioctl command itself.

Which isn't great but could do.

Hm, which code exactly?

In the previous mail the only thing proposed was to switch to a simple
copy_from_user() which effectively bars us from extending the
seccomp_addfd struct which this is about, right? At that point, the only
option then becomes to either introduce a new ioctl() and a new struct
or to go for the hack in e.g. 3. (Afaiu, 2. is not working anymore
because we break userspace as soon as we append "fancy_new_field" to the
struct because it changes the ioctl() unless I'm missing something.)

Let me maybe rephrase: I'd prefer we merge something for addfd that is
extensible with minimal burden on userspace. 
But if we are fine with saying "we don't care, let's just use
copy_from_user() for addfd and if we extend we add a new struct + ioctl"
then ok, sure. But I would prefer to keep dealing with new structs +
ioctls (Look at the end of btrfs.h [1] unlikely to be a problem for us,
but still.) as little as possible because that will be more churn in
userspace code than I'd prefer.

So either [1] or - since none of the generic extensibility seems to be
particularly nice - we bite the bullet and just add a:

__u64 reserved[4]

field and hope that this will carry us for a long time (probably will
for quite a long time) and defer the new ioctl() problem.

That looks super sketchy. :D

Do not go down that route. It isn't worth the pain.

You should also assume that userspace might have a compile-time check
on the buffer length (I've written one - not hard) and that the kernel
might (in the future - or on a BSD kernel) be doing the user copies
for you.

Also, if you change the structure you almost certainly need to
change the name of the ioctl cmd as well as its value.
Otherwise a recompiled program will pass the new cmd value (and
hopefully the right sized buffer) but it won't have initialised
the buffer properly.
This is likely to lead to unexpected behaviour.

Hmmm.

So, while initially I thought Sargun's observation about ioctl's fixed
struct size was right, I think I've been swayed to Christian's view
(which is supported by the long tail of struct size pain we've seen in
other APIs).

Doing a separate ioctl for each structure version seems like the "old
solution" now that we've got EA syscalls. So, I'd like to keep the size
and copy_struct_from_user().

Which leaves us with the question of how to deal with the ioctl
numbering. As we've seen, there is no actual enforcement of direction
nor size, so to that end, while we could provide the hints about both, I
guess we just don't need to. To that end, perhaps _IO() is best:

#define SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ADDFD       SECCOMP_IO(3)

Alternatively, we could use a size of either 0, 8(u64), or -1, and then
use IORW() so we _also_ won't paint ourselves into a corner if we ever
want to write something back to userspace in the structure:

#define SECCOMP_IOCTL_EA(nr) _IOC(_IOC_READ|_IOC_WRITE,SECCOMP_IOC_MAGIC,(nr),0)
#define SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ADDFD       SECCOMP_IOCTL_EA(3)

or

#define SECCOMP_IOCTL_EA(nr) _IOC(_IOC_READ|_IOC_WRITE,SECCOMP_IOC_MAGIC,(nr),8)
#define SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ADDFD       SECCOMP_IOCTL_EA(3)

or

#define SECCOMP_IOCTL_EA(nr) _IOC(_IOC_READ|_IOC_WRITE,SECCOMP_IOC_MAGIC,(nr),_IOC_SIZEMASK)
#define SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ADDFD       SECCOMP_IOCTL_EA(3)

I think I prefer the last one.

Here's where I am with things:

If we can agree on the ioctl numbering solution, I can actually send the

If the size is variable then why not get the application to fill
in the size of the structure it is sending at the time of the ioctl.

So you'd have:
#define xxx_IOCTL_17(param) _IOCW('X', 17, sizeof *(param))

The application code would then do:
	ioctl(fd, xxx_IOCTL_17(arg), arg);

The kernel code can either choose to have specific 'case'
for each size, or mask off the length bits and do the
length check later.

Why do you say this? Assuming people are just pulling in <linux/seccomp.h>
they will get both the ioctl number, and the struct. The one case where
I can see things going wrong is languages which implement their own struct
packing / ioctls and wouldn't get the updated # because it's hard coded.

My suggest, written out (no idea if this code actually works), is as follows:

ioctl.h:
/* This needs to be added */
#define IOCDIR_MASK	(_IOC_DIRMASK << _IOC_DIRSHIFT)


seccomp.h:

struct struct seccomp_notif_addfd {
	__u64 fd;
	...
}

/* or IOW? */
#define SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ADDFD	SECCOMP_IOWR(3, struct seccomp_notif_addfd)

seccomp.c:
static long seccomp_notify_addfd(struct seccomp_filter *filter,
				 struct seccomp_notif_addfd __user *uaddfd int size)
{
	struct seccomp_notif_addfd addfd;
	int ret;

	if (size < 32)
		return -EINVAL;
	if (size > PAGE_SIZE)
		return -E2BIG;

	ret = copy_struct_from_user(&addfd, sizeof(addfd), uaddfd, size);
	if (ret)
		return ret;

	...
}

/* Mask out size */
#define SIZE_MASK(cmd)	(~IOCSIZE_MASK & cmd)

/* Mask out direction */
#define DIR_MASK(cmd)	(~IOCDIR_MASK & cmd)

static long seccomp_notify_ioctl(struct file *file, unsigned int cmd,
				 unsigned long arg)
{
	struct seccomp_filter *filter = file->private_data;
	void __user *buf = (void __user *)arg;

	/* Fixed size ioctls. Can be converted later on? */
	switch (cmd) {
	case SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_RECV:
		return seccomp_notify_recv(filter, buf);
	case SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_SEND:
		return seccomp_notify_send(filter, buf);
	case SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ID_VALID:
		return seccomp_notify_id_valid(filter, buf);
	}

	/* Probably should make some nicer macros here */
	switch (SIZE_MASK(DIR_MASK(cmd))) {
	case SIZE_MASK(DIR_MASK(SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ADDFD)):
		return seccomp_notify_addfd(filter, buf, _IOC_SIZE(cmd));
	default:
		return -EINVAL;
	}
}

--------

What boxes does this tick?
* Forwards (and backwards) compatibility
* Applies to existing commands
* Command can be extended without requiring new ioctl to be defined
* It well accomodates the future where we want to have a kernel
  helper copy the structures from userspace

The fact that the size of the argument struct, and the ioctl are defined in the 
same header gives us the ability to "cheat", and for the argument size to be 
included / embedded for free in the command passed to ioctl. In turn, this
gives us two benefits. First, it means we don't have to copy from user twice,
and can just do it all in one shot since the size is passed with the syscall
arguments. Second, it means that the user does not have to do the following:

seccomp_notif_addfd addfd = {};
addfd.size = sizeof(struct seccomp_notif_addfd)

Because sizeof(struct seccomp_notif_addfd) is embedded in 
SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ADDFD based on the same headers they plucked the struct out of.

(Tanget: what was the reason for copy_struct_from_user() not including
the min/max check? I have a memory of Al objecting to having an

Ah yeah, I like this because of what you mention below: it's forward
compat too. (I'd just use the ioctl masks directly...)

	switch (cmd & ~(_IOC_SIZEMASK | _IOC_DIRMASK))

I really like that this ends up having the same construction as a
standard EA syscall: the size is part of the syscall arguments.

Yeah, this is a good solution.

Cool. I will do more patch reworking! ;)

Since you need the same mask on the case labels I think
I'd define a helper just across the switch statement:

#define M(cmd) ((cmd & ~(_IOC_SIZEMASK | _IOC_DIRMASK))
	switch (M(cmd)) {
	case M(SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_RECV):
	...
	}
#undef M

It is probably wrong to mask off DIRMASK.
But you might need to add extra case labels for
the broken one(s).

Prior to worries about indirect jumps you could
get a dense set of case label and faster code.

Al didn't want the PAGE_SIZE limit in there because there's nothing
inherently wrong with copying insane amounts of memory.

(Another tangent. I've asked this on Twitter not too long ago: do we
have stats how long copy_from_user()/copy_struct_from_user() takes with
growing struct/memory size? I'd be really interested in this. I have a
feeling that clone3()'s and - having had a chat with David Howells -
openat2()'s structs will continue to grow for a while... and I'd really
like to have some numbers on when copy_struct_from_user() becomes
costly or how costly it becomes.)

How long it takes? It should be basically the same, the costs should be
mostly in switching memory protections, etc. I wouldn't imagine how many
bytes being copied would matter much here, given the sub-page sizes.

The problem is really allowing a user process to allocate
unbounded blocks of memory, not the copy itself.

The limit for IOW() etc is 16k - not a problem.
If a 32bit size is set to just under 4GB so you really want
to allocate 4GB of memory then find the request is garbage.
Seems like a nice DoS attack.
A 64bit size can be worse.

Potentially the limit should be in memdup_user() itself.
And possibly an extra parameter giving a per-call lower? limit.

For the record, as I didn't see this yesterday since I was already
looking at a kernel with Christoph's changes. His changes just move the
logic that was already there before into a separate helper.

So effectively nothing has changed semantically in the scm code at all.

This is why I was asking yesterday what you meant by reworking the scm
code's put_user() logic as it seems obviously correct as it is done now.

You're right. The reason for the difference in my mind is that fd_install
always succeeds, whereas file_receive can fail. It's easier to do something
like:
fd_install(fd, get_file(f))
vs.
if (file_receive(fd, get_file(f))
	fput(f);

Alternatively, if the reference was always consumed, it is somewhat
easier.

I'm fine either way, but just explaining my reasoning for the difference
in behaviour.

[PATCH v3 2/4] pid: Use file_receive helper to copy FDs

[Sargun Dhillon]

The code to copy file descriptors was duplicated in pidfd_getfd.
Rather than continue to duplicate it, this hoists the code out of
kernel/pid.c and uses the newly added file_receive helper.

Earlier, when this was implemented there was some back-and-forth
about how the semantics should work around copying around file
descriptors [1], and it was decided that the default behaviour
should be to not modify cgroup data. As a matter of least surprise,
this approach follows the default semantics as presented by SCM_RIGHTS.

In the future, a flag can be added to avoid manipulating the cgroup
data on copy.
