ioctl: handle idmapped mounts

2021-01-24T13:27:19+00:00

Enable generic ioctls to handle idmapped mounts by passing down the
mount's user namespace. If the initial user namespace is passed nothing
changes so non-idmapped mounts will see identical behavior as before.

namei: make permission helpers idmapped mount aware

2021-01-24T13:27:16+00:00

The two helpers inode_permission() and generic_permission() are used by
the vfs to perform basic permission checking by verifying that the
caller is privileged over an inode. In order to handle idmapped mounts
we extend the two helpers with an additional user namespace argument.
On idmapped mounts the two helpers will make sure to map the inode
according to the mount's user namespace and then peform identical
permission checks to inode_permission() and generic_permission(). If the
initial user namespace is passed nothing changes so non-idmapped mounts
will see identical behavior as before.

vfs: verify source area in vfs_dedupe_file_range_one()

2020-12-14T14:26:13+00:00

Call remap_verify_area() on the source file as well as the destination.

When called from vfs_dedupe_file_range() the check as already been
performed, but not so if called from layered fs (overlayfs, etc...)

Could ommit the redundant check in vfs_dedupe_file_range(), but leave for
now to get error early (for fear of breaking backward compatibility).

This call shouldn't be performance sensitive.

vfs: move the remap range helpers to remap_range.c

2020-10-15T16:48:49+00:00

Complete the migration by moving the file remapping helper functions out
of read_write.c and into remap_range.c.  This reduces the clutter in the
first file and (eventually) will make it so that we can compile out the
second file if it isn't needed.

vfs: move generic_remap_checks out of mm

2020-10-14T23:47:08+00:00

I would like to move all the generic helpers for the vfs remap range
functionality (aka clonerange and dedupe) into a separate file so that
they won't be scattered across the vfs and the mm subsystems.  The
eventual goal is to be able to deselect remap_range.c if none of the
filesystems need that code, but the tricky part here is picking a
stable(ish) part of the merge window to rearrange code.
