Track the number of pids in the proc hash table. When the number of
pids goes to 0 schedule work to unmount the kernel mount of proc.
Move the mount of proc into alloc_pid when we allocate the pid for
init.
Remove the surprising calls of pid_ns_release proc in fork and
proc_flush_task. Those code paths really shouldn't know about proc
namespace implementation details and people have demonstrated several
times that finding and understanding those code paths is difficult and
non-obvious.
Because of the call path detach pid is alwasy called with the
rtnl_lock held free_pid is not allowed to sleep, so the work to
unmounting proc is moved to a work queue. This has the side benefit
of not blocking the entire world waiting for the unnecessary
rcu_barrier in deactivate_locked_super.
In the process of making the code clear and obvious this fixes a bug
reported by Gao feng <gaofeng@cn.fujitsu.com> where we would leak a
mount of proc during clone(CLONE_NEWPID|CLONE_NEWNET) if copy_pid_ns
succeeded and copy_net_ns failed.

The expressions tsk->nsproxy->pid_ns and task_active_pid_ns
aka ns_of_pid(task_pid(tsk)) should have the same number of
cache line misses with the practical difference that
ns_of_pid(task_pid(tsk)) is released later in a processes life.
Furthermore by using task_active_pid_ns it becomes trivial
to write an unshare implementation for the the pid namespace.
So I have used task_active_pid_ns everywhere I can.
In fork since the pid has not yet been attached to the
process I use ns_of_pid, to achieve the same effect.

Now that we have s_fs_info pointing to our pid namespace
the original reason for the proc root inode having a struct
pid is gone.
Caching a pid in the root inode has led to some complicated
code. Now that we don't need the struct pid, just remove it.

I had visions at one point of splitting proc into two filesystems. If
that had happened proc/self being the the part of proc that actually deals
with pids would have been a nice cleanup. As it is proc/self requires
a lot of unnecessary infrastructure for a single file.
The only user visible change is that a mounted /proc for a pid namespace
that is dead now shows a broken proc symlink, instead of being completely
invisible. I don't think anyone will notice or care.

Use kuid_t and kgid_t in struct fuse_conn and struct fuse_mount_data.
The connection between between a fuse filesystem and a fuse daemon is
established when a fuse filesystem is mounted and provided with a file
descriptor the fuse daemon created by opening /dev/fuse.
For now restrict the communication of uids and gids between the fuse
filesystem and the fuse daemon to the initial user namespace. Enforce
this by verifying the file descriptor passed to the mount of fuse was
opened in the initial user namespace. Ensuring the mount happens in
the initial user namespace is not necessary as mounts from non-initial
user namespaces are not yet allowed.
In fuse_req_init_context convert the currrent fsuid and fsgid into the
initial user namespace for the request that will be sent to the fuse
daemon.
In fuse_fill_attr convert the uid and gid passed from the fuse daemon
from the initial user namespace into kuids and kgids.
In iattr_to_fattr called from fuse_setattr convert kuids and kgids
into the uids and gids in the initial user namespace before passing
them to the fuse filesystem.
In fuse_change_attributes_common called from fuse_dentry_revalidate,
fuse_permission, fuse_geattr, and fuse_setattr, and fuse_iget convert
the uid and gid from the fuse daemon into a kuid and a kgid to store
on the fuse inode.
By default fuse mounts are restricted to task whose uid, suid, and
euid matches the fuse user_id and whose gid, sgid, and egid matches
the fuse group id. Convert the user_id and group_id mount options
into kuids and kgids at mount time, and use uid_eq and gid_eq to
compare the in fuse_allow_task.

Use kuid_t and kgid_t in struct autofs_info and struct autofs_wait_queue.
When creating directories and symlinks default the uid and gid of
the mount requester to the global root uid and gid. autofs4_wait
will update these fields when a mount is requested.
When generating autofsv5 packets report the uid and gid of the mount
requestor in user namespace of the process that opened the pipe,
reporting unmapped uids and gids as overflowuid and overflowgid.
In autofs_dev_ioctl_requester return the uid and gid of the last mount
requester converted into the calling processes user namespace. When the
uid or gid don't map return overflowuid and overflowgid as appropriate,
allowing failure to find a mount requester to be distinguished from
failure to map a mount requester.
The uid and gid mount options specifying the user and group of the
root autofs inode are converted into kuid and kgid as they are parsed
defaulting to the current uid and current gid of the process that
mounts autofs.
Mounting of autofs for the present remains confined to processes in
the initial user namespace.

In commit 800179c9b8a1 ("This adds symlink and hardlink restrictions to
the Linux VFS"), the new link protections were enabled by default, in
the hope that no actual application would care, despite it being
technically against legacy UNIX (and documented POSIX) behavior.
However, it does turn out to break some applications. It's rare, and
it's unfortunate, but it's unacceptable to break existing systems, so
we'll have to default to legacy behavior.
In particular, it has broken the way AFD distributes files, see
http://www.dwd.de/AFD/
along with some legacy scripts.
Distributions can end up setting this at initrd time or in system
scripts: if you have security problems due to link attacks during your
early boot sequence, you have bigger problems than some kernel sysctl
setting. Do:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/protected_symlinks
echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/protected_hardlinks
to re-enable the link protections.
Alternatively, we may at some point introduce a kernel config option
that sets these kinds of "more secure but not traditional" behavioural
options automatically.

# mount -o remount,rw <mnt>
# dd if=/dev/zero of=<mnt>/tmpfile bs=1M count=1
Deadlock happened.
It is because of the nested chunk allocation. When we wrote the data
into the filesystem, we would allocate the data chunk because there was
no data chunk in the filesystem. At the end of the data chunk allocation,
we should insert the metadata of the data chunk into the extent tree, but
there was no raid1 chunk, so we tried to lock the chunk allocation mutex to
allocate the new chunk, but we had held the mutex, the deadlock happened.
By rights, we would allocate the raid1 chunk when we added the second device
because the profile of the seed filesystem is raid1 and we had two devices.
But we didn't do that in fact. It is because the last step of the first device
insertion didn't commit the transaction. So when we added the second device,
we didn't cow the tree, and just inserted the relative metadata into the leaves
which were generated by the first device insertion, and its profile was dup.
So, I fix this problem by commiting the transaction at the end of the first
device insertion.

To see the problem, create many hardlinks to the same file (120 should do it),
then look up paths by inode with:
ls -i
btrfs inspect inode-resolve -v $ino /mnt/btrfs
I noticed the memory layout of the fspath->val data had some irregularities
(some unnecessary gaps that stop appearing about halfway),
so I'm not sure there aren't any bugs left in it.

The warning check for duplicate sysfs entries can cause a buffer overflow
when printing the warning, as strcat() doesn't check buffer sizes.
Use strlcat() instead.
Since strlcat() doesn't return a pointer to the passed buffer, unlike
strcat(), I had to convert the nested concatenation in sysfs_add_one() to
an admittedly more obscure comma operator construct, to avoid emitting code
for the concatenation if CONFIG_BUG is disabled.

another object whose lifetime is controlled by a separate kobject) it is
beneficial to tie lifetime of another object to the lifetime of

To achieve this let's pin kobject's parent when doing cdev_add() and

Commit 38f38657444d ("xattr: extract simple_xattr code from tmpfs") moved
some code from tmpfs but introduced a subtle bug along the way.
If the name passed to simple_xattr_remove() does not exist in the list of
xattrs, then it is possible to call kfree(new_xattr) when new_xattr is
actually initialized to itself on the stack via uninitialized_var().
This causes a BUG() since the memory was not allocated via the slab
allocator and was not bypassed through to the page allocator because it
was too large.
Initialize the local variable to NULL so the kfree() never takes place.

When reading /proc/pid/numa_maps, it's possible to return the contents of
the stack where the mempolicy string should be printed if the policy gets
freed from beneath us.
This happens because mpol_to_str() may return an error the
stack-allocated buffer is then printed without ever being stored.
There are two possible error conditions in mpol_to_str():
- if the buffer allocated is insufficient for the string to be stored,
and
- if the mempolicy has an invalid mode.
The first error condition is not triggered in any of the callers to
mpol_to_str(): at least 50 bytes is always allocated on the stack and this
is sufficient for the string to be written. A future patch should convert
this into BUILD_BUG_ON() since we know the maximum strlen possible, but
that's not -rc material.
The second error condition is possible if a race occurs in dropping a
reference to a task's mempolicy causing it to be freed during the read().
The slab poison value is then used for the mode and mpol_to_str() returns
-EINVAL.
This race is only possible because get_vma_policy() believes that
mm->mmap_sem protects task->mempolicy, which isn't true. The exit path
does not hold mm->mmap_sem when dropping the reference or setting
task->mempolicy to NULL: it uses task_lock(task) instead.
Thus, it's required for the caller of a task mempolicy to hold
task_lock(task) while grabbing the mempolicy and reading it. Callers with
a vma policy store their mempolicy earlier and can simply increment the
reference count so it's guaranteed not to be freed.
