Subject: Re: [RFC -resend] Make Yama pid_ns aware
Date: Mon, 28 Nov 2011 20:00:23 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20111128200023.GA1818@hallyn.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20111128191658.GA6028@albatros>

Quoting Vasiliy Kulikov (segoon@openwall.com):
> As Yama's sysctls are about defining a security policy for the system,
> it is reasonable to define it per container in case of LXC containers
> (or out-of-tree alternatives like OpenVZ).  In my opinion they belong
> to pid namespace.  With per-pid_ns sysctls it is possible to create
> multiple containers with different ptrace, /tmp, etc. policies.
> 
> The patch is straightforward:
> 
> 1) all sysctl variables are moved from global vars to pid_namespace
> fields.
> 
> 2) each cloned pid ns gets the settings of the parent.
> 
> 3) the variables of current pid ns are visible through sysctl interface.
> 
> proc_pid_dointvec_minmax() is stolen from its ipc_ns equivalent in
> ipc/ipc_sysctl.c.
> 
> P.S.  As user namespaces are not merged yet and it's not clear when/whether
> they are merged, these changes belong to pid namespace for now.  When
> user namespaces are merged, per pid_ns variables should go to struct
> user_namespace.  It will not break ABI as userspace sees the same
> kernel.yama.* sysctls in both pid ns and user ns cases.
