fs: Add user namesapace member to struct super_block
Initially this will be used to eliminate the implicit MNT_NODEV flag for mounts from user namespaces. In the future it will also be used for translating ids and checking capabilities for filesystems mounted from user namespaces. s_user_ns is initialized in alloc_super() and is generally set to current_user_ns(). To avoid security and corruption issues, two additional mount checks are also added: - do_new_mount() gains a check that the user has CAP_SYS_ADMIN in current_user_ns(). - sget() will fail with EBUSY when the filesystem it's looking for is already mounted from another user namespace. proc requires some special handling. The user namespace of current isn't appropriate when forking as a result of clone (2) with CLONE_NEWPID|CLONE_NEWUSER, as it will set s_user_ns to the namespace of the parent and make proc unmountable in the new user namespace. Instead, the user namespace which owns the new pid namespace is used. sget_userns() is allowed to allow passing in a namespace other than that of current, and sget becomes a wrapper around sget_userns() which passes current_user_ns(). Changes to original version of this patch * Documented @user_ns in sget_userns, alloc_super and fs.h * Kept an blank line in fs.h * Removed unncessary include of user_namespace.h from fs.h * Tweaked the location of get_user_ns and put_user_ns so the security modules can (if they wish) depend on it. -- EWB Signed-off-by: Seth Forshee <seth.forshee@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Eric W.
