[REVIEW][PATCH 0/5] A couple of lingering namespace patches

[Eric W. Biederman]

There are a couple of long overdue namespace patches, simple cleanups
and permision grants that have been sitting in my development tree
for far too long.  If anyone objects to these please let me know.

Eric W. Biederman (4):
      namespaces: Simplify copy_namespaces so it is clear what is going on.
      userns: Allow PR_CAPBSET_DROP in a user namespace.
      pidns: Don't have unshare(CLONE_NEWPID) imply CLONE_THREAD
      userns:  Kill nsown_capable it makes the wrong thing easy

Serge Hallyn (1):
      capabilities: allow nice if we are privileged

[REVIEW][PATCH 1/5] namespaces: Simplify copy_namespaces so it is clear what is going on.

[Eric W. Biederman]

Remove the test for the impossible case where tsk->nsproxy == NULL.  Fork
will never be called with tsk->nsproxy == NULL.

Only call get_nsproxy when we don't need to generate a new_nsproxy,
and mark the case where we don't generate a new nsproxy as likely.

Remove the code to drop an unnecessarily acquired nsproxy value.

[REVIEW][PATCH 2/5] userns: Allow PR_CAPBSET_DROP in a user namespace.

[Eric W. Biederman]

As the capabilites and capability bounding set are per user namespace
properties it is safe to allow changing them with just CAP_SETPCAP
permission in the user namespace.

[REVIEW][PATCH 3/5] pidns: Don't have unshare(CLONE_NEWPID) imply CLONE_THREAD

[Eric W. Biederman]

I goofed when I made unshare(CLONE_NEWPID) only work in a
single-threaded process.  There is no need for that requirement and in
fact I analyzied things right for setns.  The hard requirement
is for tasks that share a VM to all be in the pid namespace and
we properly prevent that in do_fork.

Just to be certain I took a look through do_wait and
forget_original_parent and there are no cases that make it any harder
for children to be in the multiple pid namespaces than it is for
children to be in the same pid namespace.  I also performed a check to
see if there were in uses of task->nsproxy_pid_ns I was not familiar
with, but it is only used when allocating a new pid for a new task,
and in checks to prevent craziness from happening.

I don't understand though - copy_process does have the right test:

   1176          * If the new process will be in a different pid namespace
   1177          * don't allow the creation of threads.
   1178          */
   1179         if ((clone_flags & (CLONE_VM|CLONE_NEWPID)) &&
   1180             (task_active_pid_ns(current) != current->nsproxy->pid_ns))
   1181                 return ERR_PTR(-EINVAL);

but why is it ok for sys_unshare not to do that?  Note that
in order for check_unshare_flags() to bail on &current->mm->mm_users > 1
you do have to set CLONE_VM (for inverse interpretation).

So it seems to me this isn't safe as is, and we need to at least
set CLONE_VM if CLONE_PID is set.

Partly this is the difference in the meaning of the flags between
unshare and clone.

Basically in unshare all othat gets changed is
current->nsproxy->pid_ns_for_children (the rename is in the net tree).

So because unshare of the pid namespace does not actually effect the
current processes, just the pid namespace the children of the current
thread will be in this is safe.

And frankly having the checks be obviously different is a good thing
because it means that people will ask why in the world this is so and
realize the difference in meaning.

Yes, agreed, with the current meaning of ->pid_ns unshare(NEWPID)
looks safe even if the caller is multi-threaded... and this matches
pidns_install() which doesn't require single-threaded.

[REVIEW][PATCH 4/5] capabilities: allow nice if we are privileged

[Eric W. Biederman]

We allow task A to change B's nice level if it has a supserset of
B's privileges, or of it has CAP_SYS_NICE.  Also allow it if A has
CAP_SYS_NICE with respect to B - meaning it is root in the same
namespace, or it created B's namespace.

[REVIEW][PATCH 5/5] userns: Kill nsown_capable it makes the wrong thing easy

[Eric W. Biederman]

nsown_capable is a special case of ns_capable essentially for just CAP_SETUID and
CAP_SETGID.  For the existing users it doesn't noticably simplify things and
from the suggested patches I have seen it encourages people to do the wrong
thing.  So remove nsown_capable.
