[PATCH v4 0/4] ceph: add support for snapshot names encryption

From: Luís Henriques
Date: Thu Apr 14 2022 - 11:21:21 EST


Hi!

Time for another iteration on the encrypted snapshots names, which is
mostly a rebase to the wip-fscrypt branch. To test this, I've used ceph
with the following PRs:

mds: add protection from clients without fscrypt support #45073
mds: use the whole string as the snapshot long name #45192
mds: support alternate names for snapshots #45224
mds: limit the snapshot names to 240 characters #45312

Changes since v3:

- Fixed WARN_ON() in ceph_encode_encrypted_dname()

- Updated documentation and copyright notice for the base64
encoding/decoding implementaiton which was taken from the fscrypt base.

Changes since v2:

- Use ceph_find_inode() instead of ceph_get_inode() for finding a snapshot
parent in function parse_longname(). I've also added a fallback to
ceph_get_inode() in case we fail to find the inode. This may happen if,
for example, the mount root doesn't include that inode. The iput() was
also complemented by a discard_new_inode() if the inode is in the I_NEW
state. (patch 0002)

- Move the check for '_' snapshots further up in the ceph_fname_to_usr()
and ceph_encode_encrypted_dname(). This fixes the case pointed out by
Xiubo in v2. (patch 0002)

- Use NAME_MAX for tmp arrays (patch 0002)

- Added an extra patch for replacing the base64url encoding by a different
encoding standard, the one used for IMAP mailboxes (which uses '+' and
',' instead of '-' and '_'). This should fix the issue with snapshot
names starting with '_'. (patch 0003)

Changes since v1:

- Dropped the dentry->d_flags change in ceph_mkdir(). Thanks to Xiubo
suggestion, patch 0001 now skips calling ceph_fscrypt_prepare_context()
if we're handling a snapshot.

- Added error handling to ceph_get_snapdir() in patch 0001 (Jeff had
already pointed that out but I forgot to include that change in previous
revision).

- Rebased patch 0002 to the latest wip-fscrypt branch.

- Added some documentation regarding snapshots naming restrictions.
