This cycle we added support for mounting overlayfs on top of idmapped
mounts. Recently I've started looking into potential corner cases when
trying to add additional tests and I noticed that reporting for POSIX ACLs
is currently wrong when using idmapped layers with overlayfs mounted on top
of it.
I have sent out an patch that fixes this and makes POSIX ACLs work
correctly but the patch is a bit bigger and we're already at -rc5 so I
recommend we simply don't raise SB_POSIXACL when idmapped layers are
used. Then we can fix the VFS part described below for the next merge
window so we can have good exposure in -next.
I'm going to give a rather detailed explanation to both the origin of the
problem and mention the solution so people know what's going on.
Let's assume the user creates the following directory layout and they have
a rootfs /var/lib/lxc/c1/rootfs. The files in this rootfs are owned as you
would expect files on your host system to be owned. For example, ~/.bashrc
for your regular user would be owned by 1000:1000 and /root/.bashrc would
be owned by 0:0. IOW, this is just regular boring filesystem tree on an
ext4 or xfs filesystem.
The user chooses to set POSIX ACLs using the setfacl binary granting the
user with uid 4 read, write, and execute permissions for their .bashrc
file:
setfacl -m u:4:rwx /var/lib/lxc/c2/rootfs/home/ubuntu/.bashrc
Now they to expose the whole rootfs to a container using an idmapped
mount. So they first create:
mkdir -pv /vol/contpool/{ctrover,merge,lowermap,overmap}
mkdir -pv /vol/contpool/ctrover/{over,work}
chown 10000000:10000000 /vol/contpool/ctrover/{over,work}
The user now creates an idmapped mount for the rootfs:
mount-idmapped/mount-idmapped --map-mount=b:0:10000000:65536 \
/var/lib/lxc/c2/rootfs \
/vol/contpool/lowermap
This for example makes it so that
/var/lib/lxc/c2/rootfs/home/ubuntu/.bashrc which is owned by uid and gid
1000 as being owned by uid and gid 10001000 at
/vol/contpool/lowermap/home/ubuntu/.bashrc.
Assume the user wants to expose these idmapped mounts through an overlayfs
mount to a container.
mount -t overlay overlay \
-o lowerdir=/vol/contpool/lowermap, \
upperdir=/vol/contpool/overmap/over, \
workdir=/vol/contpool/overmap/work \
/vol/contpool/merge
The user can do this in two ways:
(1) Mount overlayfs in the initial user namespace and expose it to the
container.
(2) Mount overlayfs on top of the idmapped mounts inside of the container's
user namespace.
Let's assume the user chooses the (1) option and mounts overlayfs on the
host and then changes into a container which uses the idmapping
0:10000000:65536 which is the same used for the two idmapped mounts.
Now the user tries to retrieve the POSIX ACLs using the getfacl command
getfacl -n /vol/contpool/lowermap/home/ubuntu/.bashrc
and to their surprise they see:
# file: vol/contpool/merge/home/ubuntu/.bashrc
# owner: 1000
# group: 1000
user::rw-
user:4294967295:rwx
group::r--
mask::rwx
other::r--
indicating the uid wasn't correctly translated according to the idmapped
mount. The problem is how we currently translate POSIX ACLs. Let's inspect
the callchain in this example:
idmapped mount /vol/contpool/merge: 0:10000000:65536
caller's idmapping: 0:10000000:65536
overlayfs idmapping (ofs->creator_cred): 0:0:4k /* initial idmapping */

-> path_getxattr()
-> getxattr()
-> do_getxattr()
|> vfs_getxattr()
| -> __vfs_getxattr()
| -> handler->get == ovl_posix_acl_xattr_get()
| -> ovl_xattr_get()
| -> vfs_getxattr()
| -> __vfs_getxattr()
| -> handler->get() /* lower filesystem callback */
|> posix_acl_fix_xattr_to_user()
{
4 = make_kuid(&init_user_ns, 4);
4 = mapped_kuid_fs(&init_user_ns /* no idmapped mount */, 4);
/* FAILURE */
-1 = from_kuid(0:10000000:65536 /* caller's idmapping */, 4);
}
If the user chooses to use option (2) and mounts overlayfs on top of
idmapped mounts inside the container things don't look that much better:
idmapped mount /vol/contpool/merge: 0:10000000:65536
caller's idmapping: 0:10000000:65536
overlayfs idmapping (ofs->creator_cred): 0:10000000:65536
sys_getxattr()
-> path_getxattr()
-> getxattr()
-> do_getxattr()
|> vfs_getxattr()
| -> __vfs_getxattr()
| -> handler->get == ovl_posix_acl_xattr_get()
| -> ovl_xattr_get()
| -> vfs_getxattr()
| -> __vfs_getxattr()
| -> handler->get() /* lower filesystem callback */
|> posix_acl_fix_xattr_to_user()
{
4 = make_kuid(&init_user_ns, 4);
4 = mapped_kuid_fs(&init_user_ns, 4);
/* FAILURE */
-1 = from_kuid(0:10000000:65536 /* caller's idmapping */, 4);
}
As is easily seen the problem arises because the idmapping of the lower
mount isn't taken into account as all of this happens in do_gexattr(). But
do_getxattr() is always called on an overlayfs mount and inode and thus
cannot possible take the idmapping of the lower layers into account.
This problem is similar for fscaps but there the translation happens as
part of vfs_getxattr() already. Let's walk through an fscaps overlayfs
callchain:
setcap 'cap_net_raw+ep' /var/lib/lxc/c2/rootfs/home/ubuntu/.bashrc
The expected outcome here is that we'll receive the cap_net_raw capability
as we are able to map the uid associated with the fscap to 0 within our
container. IOW, we want to see 0 as the result of the idmapping
translations.
If the user chooses option (1) we get the following callchain for fscaps:
idmapped mount /vol/contpool/merge: 0:10000000:65536
caller's idmapping: 0:10000000:65536
overlayfs idmapping (ofs->creator_cred): 0:0:4k /* initial idmapping */

}
-> vfs_getxattr_alloc()
-> handler->get == /* lower filesystem callback */
We can see how the translation happens correctly in those cases as the
conversion happens within the vfs_getxattr() helper.
For POSIX ACLs we need to do something similar. However, in contrast to
fscaps we cannot apply the fix directly to the kernel internal posix acl
data structure as this would alter the cached values and would also require
a rework of how we currently deal with POSIX ACLs in general which almost
never take the filesystem idmapping into account (the noteable exception
being FUSE but even there the implementation is special) and instead
retrieve the raw values based on the initial idmapping.
The correct values are then generated right before returning to
userspace. The fix for this is to move taking the mount's idmapping into
account directly in vfs_getxattr() instead of having it be part of
posix_acl_fix_xattr_to_user().
To this end we simply move the idmapped mount translation into a separate
step performed in vfs_{g,s}etxattr() instead of in
posix_acl_fix_xattr_{from,to}_user().
To see how this fixes things let's go back to the original example. Assume
the user chose option (1) and mounted overlayfs on top of idmapped mounts
on the host:
idmapped mount /vol/contpool/merge: 0:10000000:65536
caller's idmapping: 0:10000000:65536
overlayfs idmapping (ofs->creator_cred): 0:0:4k /* initial idmapping */

| | 10000004 = mapped_kuid_fs(0:10000000:65536 /* lower idmapped mount */, 4);
| | 10000004 = from_kuid(&init_user_ns, 10000004);

| | |
| |> posix_acl_getxattr_idmapped_mnt() |
| { |
| V
| 10000004 = make_kuid(&init_user_ns, 10000004);
| 10000004 = mapped_kuid_fs(&init_user_ns /* no idmapped mount */, 10000004);
| 10000004 = from_kuid(&init_user_ns, 10000004);
| } |_________________________________________________

/* SUCCESS */
4 = from_kuid(0:10000000:65536 /* caller's idmapping */, 10000004);
}
And similarly if the user chooses option (1) and mounted overayfs on top of
idmapped mounts inside the container:
idmapped mount /vol/contpool/merge: 0:10000000:65536
caller's idmapping: 0:10000000:65536

/* SUCCESS */
4 = from_kuid(0:10000000:65536 /* caller's idmappings */, 10000004);
}
The last remaining problem we need to fix here is ovl_get_acl(). During
ovl_permission() overlayfs will call:
ovl_permission()
-> generic_permission()
-> acl_permission_check()
-> check_acl()
-> get_acl()
-> inode->i_op->get_acl() == ovl_get_acl()
> get_acl() /* on the underlying filesystem)
->inode->i_op->get_acl() == /*lower filesystem callback */
-> posix_acl_permission()
passing through the get_acl request to the underlying filesystem. This will
retrieve the acls stored in the lower filesystem without taking the
idmapping of the underlying mount into account as this would mean altering
the cached values for the lower filesystem. The simple solution is to have
ovl_get_acl() simply duplicate the ACLs, update the values according to the
idmapped mount and return it to acl_permission_check() so it can be used in
posix_acl_permission(). Since overlayfs doesn't cache ACLs they'll be
released right after.
