Subject: [PATCH] devpts: Make each mount of devpts an independent filesystem.


The /dev/ptmx device node is changed to lookup the directory entry
"pts" in the same directory as the /dev/ptmx device node was opened
in.  If there is a "pts" entry and that entry is a devpts filesystem
/dev/ptmx uses that filesystem.  Otherwise the open of /dev/ptmx
fails.

The DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES configuration option is removed,
so that userspace can now safely depend on each mount of devpts
creating a new instance of the filesystem.

Each mount of devpts is now a separate and equal filesystem.

The kernel.pty.reserve sysctl is neutered with no way currently
implemented to be able to use the reserved ptys.

A new vfs helper path_pts is introduced that finds a directory entry
named "pts" in the directory of the passed in path, and changes the
passed in path to point to it.  The helper path_pts uses a function
path_parent_directory that was factored out of follow_dotdot.

In the implementation of devpts:
- devpts_mnt is killed as it is no longer meaningful if all
  mounts of devpts are equal.
- pts_sb_from_inode is replaced by just inode->i_sb as all
  cached inodes in the tty layer are now from the devpts
  filesystem.
- devpts_add_ref is rolled into the new function devpts_ptmx.
  And the unnecessary inode hold is removed.
- devpts_del_ref is renamed devpts_release and reduced
  to just a deacrivate_super.
- The newinstance mount option continues to be accepted but is now ignored.

In devpts_fs.h definitions for when !CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS are removed
as they are never used.

Documentation/filesystems/devices.txt is updated to describe
the current situation.

This has been verified to work properly on openwrt-15.05, centos5,
centos6, centos7, debian-6.0.2, debian-7.9, debian-8.2,
ubuntu-14.04.3, ubuntu-15.10, fedora23, magia-5, mint-17.3,
opensuse-42.1, slackware-14.1, gentoo-20151225 (13.0?),
archlinux-2015-12-01.  With the caveat that on centos6 and on
slackware-14.1 that there wind up being two instances of the devpts
filesystem mounted on /dev/pts, the lower copy does not end up getting
used.

+Each mount of the devpts filesystem is now distinct such that ptys
+and their indicies allocated in one mount are independent from ptys
+and their indicies in all other mounts.
 
-To support containers, we now allow multiple instances of devpts filesystem,
-such that indices of ptys allocated in one instance are independent of indices
-allocated in other instances of devpts.
+All mounts of the devpts filesystem now create a /dev/pts/ptmx node
+with permissions 0000.
 
-To preserve backward compatibility, this support for multiple instances is
-enabled only if:
+To retain backwards compatibility the a ptmx device node (aka any node
+created with "mknod name c 5 2") when opened will look for an instance
+of devpts under the name "pts" in the same directory as the ptmx device
+node.
 
-	- CONFIG_DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES=y, and
-	- '-o newinstance' mount option is specified while mounting devpts
-
-IOW, devpts now supports both single-instance and multi-instance semantics.
-
-If CONFIG_DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES=n, there is no change in behavior and
-this referred to as the "legacy" mode. In this mode, the new mount options
-(-o newinstance and -o ptmxmode) will be ignored with a 'bogus option' message
-on console.
-
-If CONFIG_DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES=y and devpts is mounted without the
-'newinstance' option (as in current start-up scripts) the new mount binds
-to the initial kernel mount of devpts. This mode is referred to as the
-'single-instance' mode and the current, single-instance semantics are
-preserved, i.e PTYs are common across the system.
-
-The only difference between this single-instance mode and the legacy mode
-is the presence of new, '/dev/pts/ptmx' node with permissions 0000, which
-can safely be ignored.
-
-If CONFIG_DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES=y and 'newinstance' option is specified,
-the mount is considered to be in the multi-instance mode and a new instance
-of the devpts fs is created. Any ptys created in this instance are independent
-of ptys in other instances of devpts. Like in the single-instance mode, the
-/dev/pts/ptmx node is present. To effectively use the multi-instance mode,
-open of /dev/ptmx must be a redirected to '/dev/pts/ptmx' using a symlink or
-bind-mount.
-
-Eg: A container startup script could do the following:
-
-	$ chmod 0666 /dev/pts/ptmx
-	$ rm /dev/ptmx
-	$ ln -s pts/ptmx /dev/ptmx
-	$ ns_exec -cm /bin/bash
-
-	# We are now in new container
-
-	$ umount /dev/pts
-	$ mount -t devpts -o newinstance lxcpts /dev/pts
-	$ sshd -p 1234
-
-where 'ns_exec -cm /bin/bash' calls clone() with CLONE_NEWNS flag and execs
-/bin/bash in the child process.  A pty created by the sshd is not visible in
-the original mount of /dev/pts.
+An an option instead of placing a /dev/ptmx device node at /dev/ptmx
+it is possible to place a symlink to /dev/pts/ptmx at /dev/ptmx or
+to bind mount /dev/ptx/ptmx to /dev/ptmx.  If you opt for using
+the devpts filesystem in this manner devpts should be mounted with
+the ptmxmode=0666, or chmod 0666 /dev/pts/ptmx should be called.
 
 Total count of pty pairs in all instances is limited by sysctls:
 kernel.pty.max = 4096		- global limit
-kernel.pty.reserve = 1024	- reserve for initial instance
+kernel.pty.reserve = 1024	- reserved and not currently available for use
 kernel.pty.nr			- current count of ptys
 
 Per-instance limit could be set by adding mount option "max=<count>".
 This feature was added in kernel 3.4 together with sysctl kernel.pty.reserve.
 In kernels older than 3.4 sysctl kernel.pty.max works as per-instance limit.
-
-User-space changes
-------------------
-
-In multi-instance mode (i.e '-o newinstance' mount option is specified at least
-once), following user-space issues should be noted.
-
-1. If -o newinstance mount option is never used, /dev/pts/ptmx can be ignored
-   and no change is needed to system-startup scripts.
-
-2. To effectively use multi-instance mode (i.e -o newinstance is specified)
-   administrators or startup scripts should "redirect" open of /dev/ptmx to
-   /dev/pts/ptmx using either a bind mount or symlink.
-
-	$ mount -t devpts -o newinstance devpts /dev/pts
-
-   followed by either
-
-	$ rm /dev/ptmx
-	$ ln -s pts/ptmx /dev/ptmx
-	$ chmod 666 /dev/pts/ptmx
-   or
-	$ mount -o bind /dev/pts/ptmx /dev/ptmx
-
-3. The '/dev/ptmx -> pts/ptmx' symlink is the preferred method since it
-   enables better error-reporting and treats both single-instance and
-   multi-instance mounts similarly.
-
-   But this method requires that system-startup scripts set the mode of
-   /dev/pts/ptmx correctly (default mode is 0000). The scripts can set the
-   mode by, either
-
-   	- adding ptmxmode mount option to devpts entry in /etc/fstab, or
-	- using 'chmod 0666 /dev/pts/ptmx'
-
-4. If multi-instance mode mount is needed for containers, but the system
-   startup scripts have not yet been updated, container-startup scripts
-   should bind mount /dev/ptmx to /dev/pts/ptmx to avoid breaking single-
-   instance mounts.
-
-   Or, in general, container-startup scripts should use:
-
-	mount -t devpts -o newinstance -o ptmxmode=0666 devpts /dev/pts
-	if [ ! -L /dev/ptmx ]; then
-		mount -o bind /dev/pts/ptmx /dev/ptmx
-	fi
-
-   When all devpts mounts are multi-instance, /dev/ptmx can permanently be
-   a symlink to pts/ptmx and the bind mount can be ignored.
-
-5. A multi-instance mount that is not accompanied by the /dev/ptmx to
-   /dev/pts/ptmx redirection would result in an unusable/unreachable pty.
-
-	mount -t devpts -o newinstance lxcpts /dev/pts
-
-   immediately followed by:
-
-	open("/dev/ptmx")
-
-    would create a pty, say /dev/pts/7, in the initial kernel mount.
-    But /dev/pts/7 would be invisible in the new mount.
-
-6. The permissions for /dev/pts/ptmx node should be specified when mounting
-   /dev/pts, using the '-o ptmxmode=%o' mount option (default is 0000).
-
-	mount -t devpts -o newinstance -o ptmxmode=0644 devpts /dev/pts
-
-   The permissions can be later be changed as usual with 'chmod'.
-
-	chmod 666 /dev/pts/ptmx
-
-7. A mount of devpts without the 'newinstance' option results in binding to
-   initial kernel mount.  This behavior while preserving legacy semantics,
-   does not provide strict isolation in a container environment. i.e by
-   mounting devpts without the 'newinstance' option, a container could
-   get visibility into the 'host' or root container's devpts.
-   
-   To workaround this and have strict isolation, all mounts of devpts,
-   including the mount in the root container, should use the newinstance
-   option.

  *
- *     If the '-o newinstance' mount option was specified, mount a new
- *     (private) instance of devpts.  PTYs created in this instance are
- *     independent of the PTYs in other devpts instances.
- *
- *     If the '-o newinstance' option was not specified, mount/remount the
- *     initial kernel mount of devpts.  This type of mount gives the
- *     legacy, single-instance semantics.
- *
- *     The 'newinstance' option is needed to support multiple namespace
- *     semantics in devpts while preserving backward compatibility of the
- *     current 'single-namespace' semantics. i.e all mounts of devpts
- *     without the 'newinstance' mount option should bind to the initial
- *     kernel mount, like mount_single().
- *
- *     Mounts with 'newinstance' option create a new, private namespace.
- *
- *     NOTE:
- *
- *     For single-mount semantics, devpts cannot use mount_single(),
- *     because mount_single()/sget() find and use the super-block from
- *     the most recent mount of devpts. But that recent mount may be a
- *     'newinstance' mount and mount_single() would pick the newinstance
- *     super-block instead of the initial super-block.
+ *     Mount a new (private) instance of devpts.  PTYs created in this
+ *     instance are independent of the PTYs in other devpts instances.
