Subject: [PATCH] fs/namespace: fix double hlist_del_init of mnt_mp_list in get_detached_copy()
Author: kartikey406@gmail.com

#syz test: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git master


get_detached_copy() builds a new anonymous mount namespace for
open_tree(OPEN_TREE_CLONE) by iterating all mounts in the cloned tree
and calling mnt_add_to_ns() for each. However, child mounts in the
cloned tree have their mnt_mp_list linked into the original mountpoint's
m_list via mnt_set_mountpoint(). mnt_add_to_ns() only updates the
namespace RB tree and never removes mnt_mp_list from that list.

When both the original and new anonymous namespaces are torn down on
process exit, put_mnt_ns() -> umount_tree() -> __umount_mnt() calls
hlist_del_init() on mnt_mp_list for each mount. Since the same mount
belongs to two namespaces, hlist_del_init() is called twice on the same
node, corrupting the list and causing a general protection fault.

Fix this by calling hlist_del_init() on mnt_mp_list and clearing mnt_mp
for each mount inside the loop in get_detached_copy(). This detaches
them from the original mountpoint's m_list. Clearing mnt_mp also
prevents __umount_mnt() from passing a stale pointer to
maybe_free_mountpoint() during teardown.

Subject: [PATCH] mount: always duplicate mount

In the OPEN_TREE_NAMESPACE path vfs_open_tree() resolves a path via
filename_lookup() without holding namespace_lock. Between the lookup
and create_new_namespace() acquiring namespace_lock via
LOCK_MOUNT_EXACT_COPY() another thread can unmount the mount, setting
mnt->mnt_ns to NULL.

When create_new_namespace() then checks !mnt->mnt_ns it incorrectly
takes the swap-and-mntget path that was designed for fsmount()'s
detached mounts. This reuses a mount whose mnt_mp_list is in an
inconsistent state from the concurrent unmount, causing a general
protection fault in __umount_mnt() -> hlist_del_init(&mnt->mnt_mp_list)
during namespace teardown.

Remove the !mnt->mnt_ns special case entirely. Instead, always
duplicate the mount:

 - For OPEN_TREE_NAMESPACE use __do_loopback() which will properly
   clone the mount or reject it via may_copy_tree() if it was
   unmounted in the race window.
 - For fsmount() use clone_mnt() directly (via the new MOUNT_COPY_NEW
   flag) since the mount is freshly created by vfs_create_mount() and
   not in any namespace so __do_loopback()'s IS_MNT_UNBINDABLE,
   may_copy_tree, and __has_locked_children checks don't apply.
