[PATCH RFC v2 2/6] fs: protected project id

From: Konstantin Khlebnikov
Date: Tue Mar 10 2015 - 13:24:44 EST


Historically XFS project id doesn't have any permission control: file owner
is able to set any project id. Later they was sealed with user-namespace:
XFS allows to change it only from init user-ns. That works fine for isolated
containers or if user doesn't have direct access to the filesystem (NFS/FTP).

This patch adds sysctl fs.protected_projects which makes changing project id
privileged operation which requires CAP_SYS_RESOURCE in current user-namespace.
Thus there are two levels of protection: project id mapping in user-ns defines
set of permitted projects and capability protects operations within this set.

==============================================================

+protected_projects:
+
+Project id allows to enforce disk quota for several subtrees or individual
+files on the filesystem. Historically changing project id was a unprivileged
+operation and file owner is able to set any project id.
+
+When set to "0", changing project id is unprivileged operation. File owner
+can set any project id mapped in current user namespace.
+
+When set to "1" changing project id requires capability CAP_SYS_RESOURCE
+in current user namespace. Also defining project id mapping for nested
+user namespace requires CAP_SYS_RESOURCE in the parent user namespace.
