Jeff LaytonandChristian Brauner 125dfa2181 audit: widen ino fields to u64
inode->i_ino is being widened from unsigned long to u64. The audit
subsystem uses unsigned long ino in struct fields, function parameters,
and local variables that store inode numbers from arbitrary filesystems.
On 32-bit platforms this truncates inode numbers that exceed 32 bits,
which will cause incorrect audit log entries and broken watch/mark
comparisons.

Widen all audit ino fields, parameters, and locals to u64, and update
the inode format string from %lu to %llu to match.

Linus Torvalds bf4afc53b7 Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

Kees Cook 69050f8d6d treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

NeilBrownandChristian Brauner 76a53de6f7 VFS/audit: introduce kern_path_parent() for audit
audit_alloc_mark() and audit_get_nd() both need to perform a path
lookup getting the parent dentry (which must exist) and the final
target (following a LAST_NORM name) which sometimes doesn't need to
exist.

They don't need the parent to be locked, but use kern_path_locked() or
kern_path_locked_negative() anyway.  This is somewhat misleading to the
casual reader.

This patch introduces a more targeted function, kern_path_parent(),
which returns not holding locks.  On success the "path" will
be set to the parent, which must be found, and the return value is the
dentry of the target, which might be negative.

This will clear the way to rename kern_path_locked() which is
otherwise only used to prepare for removing something.

It also allows us to remove kern_path_locked_negative(), which is
transformed into the new kern_path_parent().

Christian Brauner c86b300b1e fs: add kern_path_locked_negative()
The audit code relies on the fact that kern_path_locked() returned a
path even for a negative dentry. If it doesn't find a valid dentry it
immediately calls:

    audit_find_parent(d_backing_inode(parent_path.dentry));

which assumes that parent_path.dentry is still valid. But it isn't since
kern_path_locked() has been changed to path_put() also for a negative
dentry.

Fix this by adding a helper that implements the required audit semantics
and allows us to fix the immediate bleeding. We can find a unified
solution for this afterwards.

NeilBrownandChristian Brauner 1c3cb50b58 VFS: change kern_path_locked() and user_path_locked_at() to never return negative dentry
No callers of kern_path_locked() or user_path_locked_at() want a
negative dentry.  So change them to return -ENOENT instead.  This
simplifies callers.

This results in a subtle change to bcachefs in that an ioctl will now
return -ENOENT in preference to -EXDEV.  I believe this restores the
behaviour to what it was prior to

Paul Moore 969d90ec21 audit: don't WARN_ON_ONCE(!current->mm) in audit_exe_compare()
eBPF can end up calling into the audit code from some odd places, and
some of these places don't have @current set properly so we end up
tripping the `WARN_ON_ONCE(!current->mm)` near the top of
`audit_exe_compare()`.  While the basic `!current->mm` check is good,
the `WARN_ON_ONCE()` results in some scary console messages so let's
drop that and just do the regular `!current->mm` check to avoid
problems.

Paul Moore 47846d5134 audit: don't take task_lock() in audit_exe_compare() code path
The get_task_exe_file() function locks the given task with task_lock()
which when used inside audit_exe_compare() can cause deadlocks on
systems that generate audit records when the task_lock() is held. We
resolve this problem with two changes: ignoring those cases where the
task being audited is not the current task, and changing our approach
to obtaining the executable file struct to not require task_lock().

With the intent of the audit exe filter being to filter on audit events
generated by processes started by the specified executable, it makes
sense that we would only want to use the exe filter on audit records
associated with the currently executing process, e.g. @current.  If
we are asked to filter records using a non-@current task_struct we can
safely ignore the exe filter without negatively impacting the admin's
expectations for the exe filter.

Knowing that we only have to worry about filtering the currently
executing task in audit_exe_compare() we can do away with the
task_lock() and call get_mm_exe_file() with @current->mm directly.

existing audit filtering infrastructure as possible.  In order to do
this we reuse the audit filter rule's syscall mask for the io_uring

AUDIT_FILTER_URING_EXIT/audit_filter_list[7].

Amir GoldsteinandJan Kara 950cc0d2be fsnotify: generalize handle_inode_event()
The handle_inode_event() interface was added as (quoting comment):
"a simple variant of handle_event() for groups that only have inode
marks and don't have ignore mask".

In other words, all backends except fanotify.  The inotify backend
also falls under this category, but because it required extra arguments
it was left out of the initial pass of backends conversion to the
simple interface.

This results in code duplication between the generic helper
fsnotify_handle_event() and the inotify_handle_event() callback
which also happen to be buggy code.

Generalize the handle_inode_event() arguments and add the check for
FS_EXCL_UNLINK flag to the generic helper, so inotify backend could
be converted to use the simple interface.

Amir GoldsteinandJan Kara b9a1b97725 fsnotify: create method handle_inode_event() in fsnotify_operations
The method handle_event() grew a lot of complexity due to the design of
fanotify and merging of ignore masks.

Most backends do not care about this complex functionality, so we can hide
this complexity from them.

Introduce a method handle_inode_event() that serves those backends and
passes a single inode mark and less arguments.

This change converts all backends except fanotify and inotify to use the
simplified handle_inode_event() method.  In pricipal, inotify could have
also used the new method, but that would require passing more arguments
on the simple helper (data, data_type, cookie), so we leave it with the
handle_event() method.

Amir GoldsteinandJan Kara 7dbe608016 audit: do not set FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD in audit marks mask
The audit group marks mask does not contain any events possible on
a child so setting the flag FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD in the mask is counter
productive.

It may lead to the undesired outcome of setting the dentry flag
DCACHE_FSNOTIFY_PARENT_WATCHED on a directory inode even though it is
not watching children, because the audit mark contribute the flag
FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD to the inode's fsnotify_mask and another mark could
be contributing an event that is possible on child to the inode's mask.

Furthermore in the following patches we want to use FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD
for non-dir inodes for other purposes so stop using the flag.

Amir GoldsteinandJan Kara b54cecf5e2 fsnotify: pass dir argument to handle_event() callback
The 'inode' argument to handle_event(), sometimes referred to as
'to_tell' is somewhat obsolete.
It is a remnant from the times when a group could only have an inode mark
associated with an event.

We now pass an iter_info array to the callback, with all marks associated
with an event.

Most backends ignore this argument, with two exceptions:
1. dnotify uses it for sanity check that event is on directory
2. fanotify uses it to report fid of directory on directory entry
   modification events

Remove the 'inode' argument and add a 'dir' argument.
The callback function signature is deliberately changed, because
the meaning of the argument has changed and the arguments have
been documented.

The 'dir' argument is set to when 'file_name' is specified and it is
referring to the directory that the 'file_name' entry belongs to.

Steve GrubbandPaul Moore 70b3eeed49 audit: CONFIG_CHANGE don't log internal bookkeeping as an event
Common Criteria calls out for any action that modifies the audit trail to
be recorded. That usually is interpreted to mean insertion or removal of
rules. It is not required to log modification of the inode information
since the watch is still in effect. Additionally, if the rule is a never
rule and the underlying file is one they do not want events for, they
get an event for this bookkeeping update against their wishes.

Since no device/inode info is logged at insertion and no device/inode
information is logged on update, there is nothing meaningful being
communicated to the admin by the CONFIG_CHANGE updated_rules event. One
can assume that the rule was not "modified" because it is still watching
the intended target. If the device or inode cannot be resolved, then
audit_panic is called which is sufficient.

The correct resolution is to drop logging config_update events since
the watch is still in effect but just on another unknown inode.
