This work is about 3 cycles old and has been in -next for about that time. When the kernel boots init_task creates PID 1 and then kthreadd. From that point every kthread and PID 1 share the same fs_struct. That is why pivot_root() has to rewrite the fs_struct of all kthreads. The rewriting exists so that kthreads can use init's filesystem state when they want to. It also means userspace can move the ground out from under the kernel. PID 1 now gets a completely separate fs_struct. All kthreads are anchored in a private SB_KERNMOUNT instance of nullfs that cannot be mounted on and cannot be used to follow other mounts. Userspace init can no longer affect kthread filesystem state and kthreads can no longer affect userspace fs state without explicit opting in to that. Path lookup from a kthread now fails by default. It makes it deliberately hard to offload security sensitive operations into init's filesystem state from a kthread. Places that legitimately need to look something up there opt in through the new scoped_with_init_fs() which temporarily overrides the caller's fs_struct with init's. usermodehelpers remain the only kernel tasks that genuinely share init's filesystem state, since they execute random binaries in the root filesystem (excellent...). The visible result is that /proc/2/root is a nullfs with an empty mountinfo while /proc/1/root is the real root" * tag 'vfs-7.3-rc1.kthread' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs: (26 commits) initramfs_test: use test init/exit hooks to override init fs fs: stop rewriting paths for PF_EXITING | PF_DUMPCORE fs: stop rewriting kthread fs structs fs: start all kthreads in nullfs nullfs: make nullfs multi-instance devtmpfs: create private mount namespace fs: add umh argument to struct kernel_clone_args fs: stop sharing fs_struct between init_task and pid 1 af_unix: use scoped_with_init_fs() for coredump socket lookup initramfs: use scoped_with_init_fs() for rootfs unpacking pnfs/blocklayout: use scoped_with_init_fs() for SCSI device lookup ksmbd: use scoped_with_init_fs() for VFS path operations ksmbd: use scoped_with_init_fs() for filesystem info path lookup ksmbd: use scoped_with_init_fs() for share path resolution fs: use scoped_with_init_fs() for kernel_read_file_from_path_initns() coredump: use scoped_with_init_fs() for coredump path resolution btrfs: use scoped_with_init_fs() for update_dev_time() scsi: target: use scoped_with_init_fs() for APTPL metadata scsi: target: use scoped_with_init_fs() for ALUA metadata crypto: ccp: use scoped_with_init_fs() for SEV file access ... |
