Lennart Poettering 64e82c1976 mount-util: beef up bind_remount_recursive() to be able to toggle more than MS_RDONLY
The function is otherwise generic enough to toggle other bind mount
flags beyond MS_RDONLY (for example: MS_NOSUID or MS_NODEV), hence let's
beef it up slightly to support that too.

Lennart Poettering de40a3037a nspawn: add support for executing OCI runtime bundles with nspawn
This is a pretty large patch, and adds support for OCI runtime bundles
to nspawn. A new switch --oci-bundle= is added that takes a path to an
OCI bundle. The JSON file included therein is read similar to a .nspawn
settings files, however with a different feature set.

Implementation-wise this mostly extends the pre-existing Settings object
to carry additional properties for OCI. However, OCI supports some
concepts .nspawn files did not support yet, which this patch also adds:

1. Support for "masking" files and directories. This functionatly is now
   also available via the new --inaccesible= cmdline command, and
   Inaccessible= in .nspawn files.

2. Support for mounting arbitrary file systems. (not exposed through
   nspawn cmdline nor .nspawn files, because probably not a good idea)

3. Ability to configure the console settings for a container. This
   functionality is now also available on the nspawn cmdline in the new
   --console= switch (not added to .nspawn for now, as it is something
   specific to the invocation really, not a property of the container)

4. Console width/height configuration. Not exposed through
   .nspawn/cmdline, but this may be controlled through $COLUMNS and
   $LINES like in most other UNIX tools.

5. UID/GID configuration by raw numbers. (not exposed in .nspawn and on
   the cmdline, since containers likely have different user tables, and
   the existing --user= switch appears to be the better option)

6. OCI hook commands (no exposed in .nspawn/cmdline, as very specific to
   OCI)

7. Creation of additional devices nodes in /dev. Most likely not a good
   idea, hence not exposed in .nspawn/cmdline. There's already --bind=
   to achieve the same, which is the better alternative.

8. Explicit syscall filters. This is not a good idea, due to the skewed
   arch support, hence not exposed through .nspawn/cmdline.

9. Configuration of some sysctls on a whitelist. Questionnable, not
   supported in .nspawn/cmdline for now.

10. Configuration of all 5 types of capabilities. Not a useful concept,
    since the kernel will reduce the caps on execve() anyway. Not
    exposed through .nspawn/cmdline as this is not very useful hence.

Note that this only implements the OCI runtime logic itself. It does not
provide a runc-compatible command line tool. This is left for a later
PR. Only with that in place tools such as "buildah" can use the OCI
support in nspawn as drop-in replacement.

Currently still missing is OCI hook support, but it's already parsed and
everything, and should be easy to add. Other than that it's OCI is
implemented pretty comprehensively.

There's a list of incompatibilities in the nspawn-oci.c file. In a later
PR I'd like to convert this into proper markdown and add it to the
documentation directory.

Lennart Poettering e4de72876e util-lib: split out all temporary file related calls into tmpfiles-util.c
This splits out a bunch of functions from fileio.c that have to do with
temporary files. Simply to make the header files a bit shorter, and to
group things more nicely.

No code changes, just some rearranging of source files.

Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 049af8ad0c Split out part of mount-util.c into mountpoint-util.c
The idea is that anything which is related to actually manipulating mounts is
in mount-util.c, but functions for mountpoint introspection are moved to the
new file. Anything which requires libmount must be in mount-util.c.

This was supposed to be a preparation for further changes, with no functional
difference, but it results in a significant change in linkage:

Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek baaa35ad70 coccinelle: make use of SYNTHETIC_ERRNO
Ideally, coccinelle would strip unnecessary braces too. But I do not see any
option in coccinelle for this, so instead, I edited the patch text using
search&replace to remove the braces. Unfortunately this is not fully automatic,
in particular it didn't deal well with if-else-if-else blocks and ifdefs, so
there is an increased likelikehood be some bugs in such spots.

I also removed part of the patch that coccinelle generated for udev, where we
returns -1 for failure. This should be fixed independently.

Franck Bui 03d0f4b58e nspawn: always use mode 555 for /sys
When a network namespace is needed, /sys is mounted as tmpfs (see commit
d8fc6a000f for details).

But in this case mode 755 was used as initial permissions for /sys whereas the
default mode for sysfs is 555.

In practice using 755 doesn't have any impact because /sys is mounted read-only
too but for consistency, let's use the correct mode.

Fixes: #10050

Luke Shumaker 677a72cd3e nspawn: mount_sysfs(): Unconditionally mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup
Currently, mount_sysfs() only creates /sys/fs/cgroup if cg_ns_supported().
The comment explains that we need to "Create mountpoint for
cgroups. Otherwise we are not allowed since we remount /sys read-only.";
that is: that we need to do it now, rather than later.  However, the
comment doesn't do anything to explain why we only need to do this if
cg_ns_supported(); shouldn't we _always_ need to do it?

The answer is that if !use_cgns, then this was already done by the outer
child, so mount_sysfs() only needs to do it if use_cgns.  Now,
mount_sysfs() doesn't know whether use_cgns, but !cg_ns_supported() implies
!use_cgns, so we can optimize" the case where we _know_ !use_cgns, and deal
with a no-op mkdir_p() in the false-positive where cgns_supported() but
!use_cgns.

But is it really much of an optimization?  We're potentially spending an
access(2) (cg_ns_supported() could be cached from a previous call) to
potentially save an lstat(2) and mkdir(2); and all of them are on virtual
fileystems, so they should all be pretty cheap.

So, simplify and drop the conditional.  It's a dubious optimization that
requires more text to explain than it's worth.

Luke Shumaker 0402948206 nspawn: Move cgroup mount stuff from nspawn-mount.c to nspawn-cgroup.c 2018-07-20 12:12:02 -04:00
Luke Shumaker 2fa017f169 nspawn: Simplify tmpfs_patch_options() usage, and trickle that up
One of the things that tmpfs_patch_options does is take an (optional) UID,
and insert "uid=${UID},gid=${UID}" into the options string.  So we need a
uid_t argument, and a way of telling if we should use it.  Fortunately,
that is built in to the uid_t type by having UID_INVALID as a possible
value.

So this is really a feature that requires one argument.  Yet, it is somehow
taking 4!  That is absurd.  Simplify it to only take one argument, and have
that trickle all the way up to mount_all()'s usage.

Now, in may of the uses, the argument becomes

    uid_shift == 0 ? UID_INVALID : uid_shift

because it used to treat uid_shift=0 as invalid unless the patch_ids flag
was also set.  This keeps the behavior the same.  Note that in all cases
where it is invoked, if !use_userns (sometimes called !userns), then
uid_shift is 0; we don't have to add any checks for that.

That said, I'm pretty sure that "uid=0" and not setting "uid=" are the
same, but Christian Brauner seemed to not think so when implementing the
cgns support.  https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/3589

Luke Shumaker 9c0fad5fb5 nspawn: Simplify mkdir_userns() usage, and trickle that up
One of the things that mkdir_userns{,_p}() does is take an (optional) UID,
and chown the directory to that.  So we need a uid_t argument, and a way of
telling if we should use that uid_t argument.  Fortunately, that is built
in to the uid_t type by having UID_INVALID as a possible value.

However, currently mkdir_userns() also takes a MountSettingsMask and checks
a couple of bits in it to decide if it should perform the chown.

Drop the mask argument, and instead have the caller pass UID_INVALID if it
shouldn't chown.

Lennart Poettering 0c69794138 tree-wide: remove Lennart's copyright lines
These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary. With
SPDX and git repository much more accurate and fine grained information
about licensing and authorship is available, hence let's drop the
per-file copyright notice. Of course, removing copyright lines of others
is problematic, hence this commit only removes my own lines and leaves
all others untouched. It might be nicer if sooner or later those could
go away too, making git the only and accurate source of authorship
information.

Lennart Poettering 818bf54632 tree-wide: drop 'This file is part of systemd' blurb
This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:

https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html

The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.

hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.

Lennart Poettering d4b653c589 nspawn: lock down a few things in /proc by default
This tightens security on /proc: a couple of files exposed there are now
made inaccessible. These files might potentially leak kernel internals
or expose non-virtualized concepts, hence lock them down by default.
Moreover, a couple of dirs in /proc that expose stuff also exposed in
/sys are now marked read-only, similar to how we handle /sys.

The list is taken from what docker/runc based container managers
generally apply, but slightly extended.

Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf

identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.

I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.

Yu Watanabe 1cc6c93a95 tree-wide: use TAKE_PTR() and TAKE_FD() macros 2018-04-05 14:26:26 +09:00
Lennart Poettering ae2a15bc14 macro: introduce TAKE_PTR() macro
This macro will read a pointer of any type, return it, and set the
pointer to NULL. This is useful as an explicit concept of passing
ownership of a memory area between pointers.

This takes inspiration from Rust:

https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/option/enum.Option.html#method.take

and was suggested by Alan Jenkins (@sourcejedi).

It drops ~160 lines of code from our codebase, which makes me like it.
Also, I think it clarifies passing of ownership, and thus helps
readability a bit (at least for the initiated who know the new macro)

underline the difference to cg_kernel_controllers(). After all, one
returns the controllers available to the process, the other the
controllers enabled in the kernel at all).

Let's also update the code to use read_line() and set_put_strdup() to
shorten the code a bit, and make it more robust.

Lennart Poettering ea9053c5f8 nspawn: rework mount_systemd_cgroup_writable() a bit
We shouldn't call alloca() as part of function calls, that's not really
defined in C. Hence, let's first do our stack allocations, and then
invoke functions.

Also, some coding style fixes, and minor shuffling around.

No functional changes.

Lauri Tirkkonen 4f13e53428 nspawn: EROFS for chowning mount points is not fatal (#7122)
This fixes --read-only with --private-users. mkdir_userns_p may return
-EROFS if either mkdir or lchown fails; lchown failing is fine as the
mount point will just be overmounted, and if mkdir fails then the
following mount() will also fail (with ENOENT).

Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 349cc4a507 build-sys: use #if Y instead of #ifdef Y everywhere
The advantage is that is the name is mispellt, cpp will warn us.

$ git grep -Ee "conf.set\('(HAVE|ENABLE)_" -l|xargs sed -r -i "s/conf.set\('(HAVE|ENABLE)_/conf.set10('\1_/"
$ git grep -Ee '#ifn?def (HAVE|ENABLE)' -l|xargs sed -r -i 's/#ifdef (HAVE|ENABLE)/#if \1/; s/#ifndef (HAVE|ENABLE)/#if ! \1/;'
$ git grep -Ee 'if.*defined\(HAVE' -l|xargs sed -i -r 's/defined\((HAVE_[A-Z0-9_]*)\)/\1/g'
$ git grep -Ee 'if.*defined\(ENABLE' -l|xargs sed -i -r 's/defined\((ENABLE_[A-Z0-9_]*)\)/\1/g'
+ manual changes to meson.build

squash! build-sys: use #if Y instead of #ifdef Y everywhere

v2:
- fix incorrect setting of HAVE_LIBIDN2

tomty89 e8a94ce83e nspawn: add nosuid and nodev to /tmp mount (#6004)
When automatic /tmp mount was introduced to nspawn in v219, it was done without having the nosuid and nodev mount options, which was the same case as systemd's default tmp.mount unit back then.

nosuid and nodev was added to tmp.mount(.m4) in v231 for security reasons. matching the nspawn /tmp mount entry against that.

Lennart Poettering b4cccbc13a cgroup: change cg_unified() to possibly return errors again
We use our cgroup APIs in various contexts, including from our libraries
sd-login, sd-bus. As we don#t control those environments we can't rely
that the unified cgroup setup logic succeeds, and hence really shouldn't
assert on it.

This more or less reverts 415fc41cea.

Tejun Heo 2977724b09 core: make hybrid cgroup unified mode keep compat /sys/fs/cgroup/systemd hierarchy
Currently the hybrid mode mounts cgroup v2 on /sys/fs/cgroup instead of the v1
name=systemd hierarchy.  While this works fine for systemd itself, it breaks
tools which expect cgroup v1 hierarchy on /sys/fs/cgroup/systemd.

This patch updates the hybrid mode so that it mounts v2 hierarchy on
/sys/fs/cgroup/unified and keeps v1 "name=systemd" hierarchy on
/sys/fs/cgroup/systemd for compatibility.  systemd itself doesn't depend on the
"name=systemd" hierarchy at all.  All operations take place on the v2 hierarchy
as before but the v1 hierarchy is kept in sync so that any tools which expect
it to be there can keep doing so.  This allows systemd to take advantage of
cgroup v2 process management without requiring other tools to be aware of the
hybrid mode.

The hybrid mode is implemented by mapping the special systemd controller to
/sys/fs/cgroup/unified and making the basic cgroup utility operations -
cg_attach(), cg_create(), cg_rmdir() and cg_trim() - also operate on the
/sys/fs/cgroup/systemd hierarchy whenever the cgroup2 hierarchy is updated.

While a bit messy, this will allow dropping complications from using cgroup v1
for process management a lot sooner than otherwise possible which should make
it a net gain in terms of maintainability.

v2: Fixed !cgns breakage reported by @evverx and renamed the unified mount
    point to /sys/fs/cgroup/unified as suggested by @brauner.

v3: chown the compat hierarchy too on delegation.  Suggested by @evverx.

v4: [zj]
- drop the change to default, full "legacy" is still the default.
