This patch adds basic support for FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV_V2. virtiofsd
can enable/disable this by specifying option "-o killpriv_v2/no_killpriv_v2".
By default this is enabled as long as client supports it
Enabling this option helps with performance in write path. Without this
option, currently every write is first preceeded with a getxattr() operation
to find out if security.capability is set. (Write is supposed to clear
security.capability). With this option enabled, server is signing up for
clearing security.capability on every WRITE and also clearing suid/sgid
subject to certain rules. This gets rid of extra getxattr() call for every
WRITE and improves performance. This is true when virtiofsd is run with
option -o xattr.
What does enabling FUSE_HANDLE_KILLPRIV_V2 mean for file server implementation.
It needs to adhere to following rules. Thanks to Miklos for this summary.
- clear "security.capability" on write, truncate and chown unconditionally
- clear suid/sgid in case of following. Note, sgid is cleared only if
group executable bit is set.
o setattr has FATTR_SIZE and FATTR_KILL_SUIDGID set.
o setattr has FATTR_UID or FATTR_GID
o open has O_TRUNC and FUSE_OPEN_KILL_SUIDGID
o create has O_TRUNC and FUSE_OPEN_KILL_SUIDGID flag set.
o write has FUSE_WRITE_KILL_SUIDGID
>From Linux VFS client perspective, here are the requirements.
- caps are always cleared on chown/write/truncate
- suid is always cleared on chown, while for truncate/write it is cleared
only if caller does not have CAP_FSETID.
- sgid is always cleared on chown, while for truncate/write it is cleared
only if caller does not have CAP_FSETID as well as file has group execute
permission.
virtiofsd implementation has not changed much to adhere to above ruls. And
reason being that current assumption is that we are running on Linux
and on top of filesystems like ext4/xfs which already follow above rules.
On write, truncate, chown, seucurity.capability is cleared. And virtiofsd
drops CAP_FSETID if need be and that will lead to clearing of suid/sgid.
But if virtiofsd is running on top a filesystem which breaks above assumptions,
then it will have to take extra actions to emulate above. That's a TODO
for later when need arises.
Note: create normally is supposed to be called only when file does not
exist. So generally there should not be any question of clearing
setuid/setgid. But it is possible that after client checks that
file is not present, some other client creates file on server
and this race can trigger sending FUSE_CREATE. In that case, if
O_TRUNC is set, we should clear suid/sgid if FUSE_OPEN_KILL_SUIDGID
is also set.
v3:
- Resolved conflicts due to lo_inode_open() changes.
- Moved capability code in lo_do_open() so that both lo_open() and
lo_create() can benefit from common code.
- Dropped changes to kernel headers as these are part of qemu already.

=========== QEMU README =========== QEMU is a generic and open source machine & userspace emulator and virtualizer. QEMU is capable of emulating a complete machine in software without any need for hardware virtualization support. By using dynamic translation, it achieves very good performance. QEMU can also integrate with the Xen and KVM hypervisors to provide emulated hardware while allowing the hypervisor to manage the CPU. With hypervisor support, QEMU can achieve near native performance for CPUs. When QEMU emulates CPUs directly it is capable of running operating systems made for one machine (e.g. an ARMv7 board) on a different machine (e.g. an x86_64 PC board). QEMU is also capable of providing userspace API virtualization for Linux and BSD kernel interfaces. This allows binaries compiled against one architecture ABI (e.g. the Linux PPC64 ABI) to be run on a host using a different architecture ABI (e.g. the Linux x86_64 ABI). This does not involve any hardware emulation, simply CPU and syscall emulation. QEMU aims to fit into a variety of use cases. It can be invoked directly by users wishing to have full control over its behaviour and settings. It also aims to facilitate integration into higher level management layers, by providing a stable command line interface and monitor API. It is commonly invoked indirectly via the libvirt library when using open source applications such as oVirt, OpenStack and virt-manager. QEMU as a whole is released under the GNU General Public License, version 2. For full licensing details, consult the LICENSE file. Building ======== QEMU is multi-platform software intended to be buildable on all modern Linux platforms, OS-X, Win32 (via the Mingw64 toolchain) and a variety of other UNIX targets. The simple steps to build QEMU are: .. code-block:: shell mkdir build cd build ../configure make Additional information can also be found online via the QEMU website: * `<https://qemu.org/Hosts/Linux>`_ * `<https://qemu.org/Hosts/Mac>`_ * `<https://qemu.org/Hosts/W32>`_ Submitting patches ================== The QEMU source code is maintained under the GIT version control system. .. code-block:: shell git clone https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu.git When submitting patches, one common approach is to use 'git format-patch' and/or 'git send-email' to format & send the mail to the qemu-devel@nongnu.org mailing list. All patches submitted must contain a 'Signed-off-by' line from the author. Patches should follow the guidelines set out in the CODING_STYLE.rst file. Additional information on submitting patches can be found online via the QEMU website * `<https://qemu.org/Contribute/SubmitAPatch>`_ * `<https://qemu.org/Contribute/TrivialPatches>`_ The QEMU website is also maintained under source control. .. code-block:: shell git clone https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu-web.git * `<https://www.qemu.org/2017/02/04/the-new-qemu-website-is-up/>`_ A 'git-publish' utility was created to make above process less cumbersome, and is highly recommended for making regular contributions, or even just for sending consecutive patch series revisions. It also requires a working 'git send-email' setup, and by default doesn't automate everything, so you may want to go through the above steps manually for once. For installation instructions, please go to * `<https://github.com/stefanha/git-publish>`_ The workflow with 'git-publish' is: .. code-block:: shell $ git checkout master -b my-feature $ # work on new commits, add your 'Signed-off-by' lines to each $ git publish Your patch series will be sent and tagged as my-feature-v1 if you need to refer back to it in the future. Sending v2: .. code-block:: shell $ git checkout my-feature # same topic branch $ # making changes to the commits (using 'git rebase', for example) $ git publish Your patch series will be sent with 'v2' tag in the subject and the git tip will be tagged as my-feature-v2. Bug reporting ============= The QEMU project uses Launchpad as its primary upstream bug tracker. Bugs found when running code built from QEMU git or upstream released sources should be reported via: * `<https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/>`_ If using QEMU via an operating system vendor pre-built binary package, it is preferable to report bugs to the vendor's own bug tracker first. If the bug is also known to affect latest upstream code, it can also be reported via launchpad. For additional information on bug reporting consult: * `<https://qemu.org/Contribute/ReportABug>`_ ChangeLog ========= For version history and release notes, please visit `<https://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/>`_ or look at the git history for more detailed information. Contact ======= The QEMU community can be contacted in a number of ways, with the two main methods being email and IRC * `<mailto:qemu-devel@nongnu.org>`_ * `<https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel>`_ * #qemu on irc.oftc.net Information on additional methods of contacting the community can be found online via the QEMU website: * `<https://qemu.org/Contribute/StartHere>`_
