acl: add vfs_set_acl_prepare()

Browse Source 
Various filesystems store POSIX ACLs on the backing store in their uapi
format. Such filesystems need to translate from the uapi POSIX ACL
format into the VFS format during i_op->get_acl(). The VFS provides the
posix_acl_from_xattr() helper for this task.

But the usage of posix_acl_from_xattr() is currently ambiguous. It is
intended to transform from a uapi POSIX ACL  to the VFS represenation.
For example, when retrieving POSIX ACLs for permission checking during
lookup or when calling getxattr() to retrieve system.posix_acl_{access,default}.

Calling posix_acl_from_xattr() during i_op->get_acl() will map the raw
{g,u}id values stored as ACL_{GROUP,USER} entries in the uapi POSIX ACL
format into k{g,u}id_t in the filesystem's idmapping and return a struct
posix_acl ready to be returned to the VFS for caching and to perform
permission checks on.

However, posix_acl_from_xattr() is also called during setxattr() for all
filesystems that rely on VFS provides posix_acl_{access,default}_xattr_handler.
The posix_acl_xattr_set() handler which is used for the ->set() method
of posix_acl_{access,default}_xattr_handler uses posix_acl_from_xattr()
to translate from the uapi POSIX ACL format to the VFS format so that it
can be passed to the i_op->set_acl() handler of the filesystem or for
direct caching in case no i_op->set_acl() handler is defined.

During setxattr() the {g,u}id values stored as ACL_{GROUP,USER} entries
in the uapi POSIX ACL format aren't raw {g,u}id values that need to be
mapped according to the filesystem's idmapping. Instead they are {g,u}id
values in the caller's idmapping which have been generated during
posix_acl_fix_xattr_from_user(). In other words, they are k{g,u}id_t
which are passed as raw {g,u}id values abusing the uapi POSIX ACL format
(Please note that this type safety violation has existed since the
introduction of k{g,u}id_t. Please see [1] for more details.).

So when posix_acl_from_xattr() is called in posix_acl_xattr_set() the
filesystem idmapping is completely irrelevant. Instead, we abuse the
initial idmapping to recover the k{g,u}id_t base on the value stored in
raw {g,u}id as ACL_{GROUP,USER} in the uapi POSIX ACL format.

We need to clearly distinguish betweeen these two operations as it is
really easy to confuse for filesystems as can be seen in ntfs3.

In order to do this we factor out make_posix_acl() which takes callbacks
allowing callers to pass dedicated methods to generate the correct
k{g,u}id_t. This is just an internal static helper which is not exposed
to any filesystems but it neatly encapsulates the basic logic of walking
through a uapi POSIX ACL and returning an allocated VFS POSIX ACL with
the correct k{g,u}id_t values.

The posix_acl_from_xattr() helper can then be implemented as a simple
call to make_posix_acl() with callbacks that generate the correct
k{g,u}id_t from the raw {g,u}id values in ACL_{GROUP,USER} entries in
the uapi POSIX ACL format as read from the backing store.

For setxattr() we add a new helper vfs_set_acl_prepare() which has
callbacks to map the POSIX ACLs from the uapi format with the k{g,u}id_t
values stored in raw {g,u}id format in ACL_{GROUP,USER} entries into the
correct k{g,u}id_t values in the filesystem idmapping. In contrast to
posix_acl_from_xattr() the vfs_set_acl_prepare() helper needs to take
the mount idmapping into account. The differences are explained in more
detail in the kernel doc for the new functions.

In follow up patches we will remove all abuses of posix_acl_from_xattr()
for setxattr() operations and replace it with calls to vfs_set_acl_prepare().

The new vfs_set_acl_prepare() helper allows us to deal with the
ambiguity in how the POSI ACL uapi struct stores {g,u}id values
depending on whether this is a getxattr() or setxattr() operation.

This also allows us to remove the posix_acl_setxattr_idmapped_mnt()
helper reducing the abuse of the POSIX ACL uapi format to pass values
that should be distinct types in {g,u}id values stored as
ACL_{GROUP,USER} entries.

The removal of posix_acl_setxattr_idmapped_mnt() in turn allows us to
re-constify the value parameter of vfs_setxattr() which in turn allows
us to avoid the nasty cast from a const void pointer to a non-const void
pointer on ovl_do_setxattr().

Ultimately, the plan is to get rid of the type violations completely and
never pass the values from k{g,u}id_t as raw {g,u}id in ACL_{GROUP,USER}
entries in uapi POSIX ACL format. But that's a longer way to go and this
is a preparatory step.
