Subject: [PATCH v3 2/3] namei: implement AT_THIS_ROOT chroot-like path resolution
The primary motivation for the need for this flag is container runtimes
which have to interact with malicious root filesystems in the host
namespaces. One of the first requirements for a container runtime to be
secure against a malicious rootfs is that they correctly scope symlinks
(that is, they should be scoped as though they are chroot(2)ed into the
container's rootfs) and ".."-style paths[*]. The already-existing
AT_XDEV and AT_NO_PROCLINKS[**] help defend against other potential
attacks in a malicious rootfs scenario.
Currently most container runtimes try to do this resolution in
userspace[1], causing many potential race conditions. In addition, the
"obvious" alternative (actually performing a {ch,pivot_}root(2))
requires a fork+exec (for some runtimes) which is *very* costly if
necessary for every filesystem operation involving a container.
[*] At the moment, ".." and "proclink" jumping are disallowed for the
same reason it is disabled for AT_BENEATH -- currently it is not
safe to allow it. Future patches may enable it unconditionally once
we have resolved the possible races (for "..") and semantics (for
"proclink" jumping).
The most significant openat(2) semantic change with AT_THIS_ROOT is that
absolute pathnames no longer cause dirfd to be ignored completely. The
rationale is that AT_THIS_ROOT must necessarily chroot-scope symlinks
with absolute paths to dirfd, and so doing it for the base path seems to
be the most consistent behaviour (and also avoids foot-gunning users who
want to scope paths that are absolute).
Currently this is only enabled for openat(2) (which has its own flag
O_THISROOT with the same semantics). However the AT_* flags have been
reserved for future support in other *at(2) syscalls (because of
AT_EMPTY_PATH many *at(2) operations do not need to support these flags
directly).
