[Bridge] [PATCH v2 net-next 0/7] Make /sys/class/net per net namespace objects belong to container

This is a revival of an older patch set from Dmitry Torokhov:

 https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1471386795-32918-1-git-send-email-dmitry.torokhov
at gmail.com/

Here's Dmitry's description:

 There are objects in /sys hierarchy (/sys/class/net/) that logically
 belong to a namespace/container. Unfortunately all sysfs objects start
 their life belonging to global root, and while we could change
 ownership manually, keeping tracks of all objects that come and go is
 cumbersome. It would be better if kernel created them using correct
 uid/gid from the beginning. 

 This series changes kernfs to allow creating object's with arbitrary
 uid/gid, adds get_ownership() callback to ktype structure so subsystems
 could supply their own logic (likely tied to namespace support) for
 determining ownership of kobjects, and adjusts sysfs code to make use
 of this information. Lastly net-sysfs is adjusted to make sure that
 objects in net namespace are owned by the root user from the owning
 user namespace.

 Note that we do not adjust ownership of objects moved into a new
 namespace (as when moving a network device into a container) as
 userspace can easily do it.

I'm reviving this patch set because we would like this feature for
system containers. One specific use case that we have is that libvirt is
unable to configure its bridge device inside of a system container due
to the bridge files in /sys/class/net/ being owned by init root instead
of container root. The last two patches in this set are patches that
I've added to Dmitry's original set to allow such configuration of the
bridge device.

Eric had previously provided feedback that he didn't favor these changes
affecting all layers of the stack and that most of the changes could
remain local to drivers/base/core.c. That feedback is certainly sensible
but I wanted to send out v2 of the patch set without making that large
of a change since quite a bit of time has passed and the bridge changes
in the last patch of this set shows that not all of the changes will be
local to drivers/base/core.c. I'm happy to make the changes if the
original request still stands.

I've verified that all of the bridge related files affected by patch 7
have proper access control checks for CAP_NET_ADMIN inside of the
user namespace. I have *not* yet verified that all of the network
device related sysfs files affected by patch 5 have proper access
control checks. I was working under the assumption that those code paths
already were verified when the first iteration of the patches were sent
out.

* Changes since v1:
  - Patch 1 was forward ported to use idr instead of ida for the inode
    num
  - Patch 5 was forward ported around the ro_after_init changes
  - Patch 5 received a build failure fix for !CONFIG_SYSFS
  - Patch 6 and 7 are new

Thanks!

[Bridge] [PATCH net-next v2 1/7] kernfs: allow creating kernfs objects with arbitrary uid/gid

From: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov at gmail.com>

This change allows creating kernfs files and directories with arbitrary
uid/gid instead of always using GLOBAL_ROOT_UID/GID by extending
kernfs_create_dir_ns() and kernfs_create_file_ns() with uid/gid arguments.
The "simple" kernfs_create_file() and kernfs_create_dir() are left
alone
and always create objects belonging to the global root.

When creating symlinks ownership (uid/gid) is taken from the target kernfs
object.

[Bridge] [PATCH net-next v2 2/7] sysfs, kobject: allow creating kobject belonging to arbitrary users

From: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov at gmail.com>

Normally kobjects and their sysfs representation belong to global root,
however it is not necessarily the case for objects in separate namespaces.
For example, objects in separate network namespace logically belong to the
container's root and not global root.

This change lays groundwork for allowing network namespace objects
ownership to be transferred to container's root user by defining
get_ownership() callback in ktype structure and using it in sysfs code to
retrieve desired uid/gid when creating sysfs objects for given kobject.

[Bridge] [PATCH net-next v2 3/7] kobject: kset_create_and_add() - fetch ownership info from parent

From: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov at gmail.com>

This change implements get_ownership() for ksets created with
kset_create_and_add() call by fetching ownership data from parent kobject.
This is done mostly for benefit of "queues" attribute of net devices
so
that corresponding directory belongs to container's root instead of global
root for network devices in a container.

[Bridge] [PATCH net-next v2 4/7] driver core: set up ownership of class devices in sysfs

From: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov at gmail.com>

Plumb in get_ownership() callback for devices belonging to a class so that
they can be created with uid/gid different from global root. This will
allow network devices in a container to belong to container's root and not
global root.

[Bridge] [PATCH net-next v2 6/7] net: Create reusable function for getting ownership info of sysfs inodes

Make net_ns_get_ownership() reusable by networking code outside of core.
This is useful, for example, to allow bridge related sysfs files to be
owned by container root.

Add a function comment since this is a potentially dangerous function to
use given the way that kobject_get_ownership() works by initializing uid
and gid before calling .get_ownership().

I'd like to give Eric an opportunity to review this and give feedback
before applying.

Thanks.

Ok, I can't let this series rot forever, so I'll apply it to net-next.

Thank you.
