Introduce a new mount bind mount property to allow idmapping mounts. The MOUNT_ATTR_IDMAP flag can be set via the new mount_setattr() syscall together with a file descriptor referring to a user namespace. The user namespace referenced by the namespace file descriptor will be attached to the bind mount. All interactions with the filesystem going through that mount will be mapped according to the mapping specified in the user namespace attached to it. Using user namespaces to mark mounts means we can reuse all the existing infrastructure in the kernel that already exists to handle idmappings and can also use this for permission checking to allow unprivileged user to create idmapped mounts in the future. Idmapping a mount is decoupled from the caller's user and mount namespace. This means idmapped mounts can be created in the initial user namespace which is an important use-case for systemd-homed, portable usb-sticks between systems, sharing data between the initial user nam...

This implements the missing mount_setattr() syscall. While the new mount api allows to change the properties of a superblock there is currently no way to change the properties of a mount or a mount tree using file descriptors which the new mount api is based on. In addition the old mount api has the restriction that mount options cannot be applied recursively. This hasn't changed since changing mount options on a per-mount basis was implemented in [1] and has been a frequent request not just for convenience but also for security reasons. The legacy mount syscall is unable to accommodate this behavior without introducing a whole new set of flags because MS_REC | MS_REMOUNT | MS_BIND | MS_RDONLY | MS_NOEXEC | [...] only apply the mount option to the topmost mount. Changing MS_REC to apply to the whole mount tree would mean introducing a significant uapi change and would likely cause significant regressions. The new mount_setattr() syscall allows to recursively clear and set mount op...

do_reconfigure_mnt() used to take the down_write(&sb->s_umount) lock which seems unnecessary since we're not changing the superblock. We're only checking whether it is already read-only. Setting other mount attributes is protected by lock_mount_hash() afaict and not by s_umount. The history of down_write(&sb->s_umount) lock being taken when setting mount attributes dates back to the introduction of MNT_READONLY in [2]. This introduced the concept of having read-only mounts in contrast to just having a read-only superblock. When it got introduced it was simply plumbed into do_remount() which already took down_write(&sb->s_umount) because it was only used to actually change the superblock before [2]. Afaict, it would've already been possible back then to only use down_read(&sb->s_umount) for MS_BIND | MS_REMOUNT since actual mount options were protected by the vfsmount lock already. But that would've meant special casing the locking for MS_BIND | MS_REMOUNT in do_remount() which people might not have considered worth it. Then in [1] MS_BIND | MS_REMOUNT mount option changes were split out of do_remount() into do_reconfigure_mnt() but the down_write(&sb->s_umount) lock was simply copied over. Now that we have this be a separate helper only take the down_read(&sb->s_umount) lock since we're only interested in checking whether the super block is currently read-only and blocking any writers from changing it. Essentially, checking that the super block is read-only has the advantage that we can avoid having to go into the slowpath and through MNT_WRITE_HOLD and can simply set the read-only flag on the mount in set_mount_attributes().

Changing mount options always ends up taking lock_mount_hash() but when MNT_READONLY is requested and neither the mount nor the superblock are MNT_READONLY we end up taking the lock, dropping it, and retaking it to change the other mount attributes. Instead, let's acquire the lock once when changing the mount attributes. This simplifies the locking in these codepath, makes them easier to reason about and avoids having to reacquire the lock right after dropping it.

When interacting with user namespace and non-user namespace aware filesystem capabilities the vfs will perform various security checks to determine whether or not the filesystem capabilities can be used by the caller, whether they need to be removed and so on. The main infrastructure for this resides in the capability codepaths but they are called through the LSM security infrastructure even though they are not technically an LSM or optional. This extends the existing security hooks security_inode_removexattr(), security_inode_killpriv(), security_inode_getsecurity() to pass down the mount's user namespace and makes them aware of idmapped mounts. In order to actually get filesystem capabilities from disk the capability infrastructure exposes the get_vfs_caps_from_disk() helper. For user namespace aware filesystem capabilities a root uid is stored alongside the capabilities. In order to determine whether the caller can make use of the filesystem capability or whether it needs to be ignored it is translated according to the superblock's user namespace. If it can be translated to uid 0 according to that id mapping the caller can use the filesystem capabilities stored on disk. If we are accessing the inode that holds the filesystem capabilities through an idmapped mount we map the root uid according to the mount's user namespace. Afterwards the checks are identical to non-idmapped mounts: reading filesystem caps from disk enforces that the root uid associated with the filesystem capability must have a mapping in the superblock's user namespace and that the caller is either in the same user namespace or is a descendant of the superblock's user namespace. For filesystems that are mountable inside user namespace the caller can just mount the filesystem and won't usually need to idmap it. If they do want to idmap it they can create an idmapped mount and mark it with a user namespace they created and which is thus a descendant of s_user_ns. For filesystems that are not mountable inside user namespaces the descendant rule is trivially true because the s_user_ns will be the initial user namespace. If the initial user namespace is passed nothing changes so non-idmapped mounts will see identical behavior as before.

If the fsids are used to initialize inodes they are unmapped according to the mount's user namespace.

In order to support per-mount idmappings vfsmounts are marked with user namespaces. The idmapping of the user namespace will be used to map the ids of vfs objects when they are accessed through that mount. By default all vfsmounts are marked with the initial user namespace. The initial user namespace is used to indicate that a mount is not idmapped. All operations behave as before. Based on prior discussions we want to attach the whole user namespace and not just a dedicated idmapping struct. This allows us to reuse all the helpers that already exist for dealing with idmappings instead of introducing a whole new range of helpers. In addition, if we decide in the future that we are confident enough to enable unprivileged users to setup idmapped mounts the permission checking can take into account whether the caller is privileged in the user namespace the mount is currently marked with. Later patches enforce that once a mount has been idmapped it can't be remapped. This keeps permission checking and life-cycle management simple. Users wanting to change the idmapped can always create a new detached mount with a different idmapping. Add a new mnt_userns member to vfsmount and two simple helpers to retrieve the mnt_userns from vfsmounts and files. The idea to attach user namespaces to vfsmounts has been floated around in various forms at Linux Plumbers in ~2018 with the original idea tracing back to a discussion in 2017 at a conference in St. Petersburg between Christoph, Tycho, and myself.
