seccomp_unotify allows more privileged processes do actions on behalf
of less privileged processes.
In many cases, the workflow is fully synchronous. It means a target
process triggers a system call and passes controls to a supervisor
process that handles the system call and returns controls to the target
process. In this context, "synchronous" means that only one process is
running and another one is waiting.
There is the WF_CURRENT_CPU flag that is used to advise the scheduler to
move the wakee to the current CPU. For such synchronous workflows, it
makes context switches a few times faster.
Right now, each interaction takes 12µs. With this patch, it takes about
3µs.
This change introduce the SECCOMP_USER_NOTIF_FD_SYNC_WAKE_UP flag that
it used to enable the sync mode.

This introduces a per-filter flag (SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_WAIT_KILLABLE_RECV)
that makes it so that when notifications are received by the supervisor the
notifying process will transition to wait killable semantics. Although wait
killable isn't a set of semantics formally exposed to userspace, the
concept is searchable. If the notifying process is signaled prior to the
notification being received by the userspace agent, it will be handled as
normal.
One quirk about how this is handled is that the notifying process
only switches to TASK_KILLABLE if it receives a wakeup from either
an addfd or a signal. This is to avoid an unnecessary wakeup of
the notifying task.
The reasons behind switching into wait_killable only after userspace
receives the notification are:
* Avoiding unncessary work - Often, workloads will perform work that they
may abort (request racing comes to mind). This allows for syscalls to be
aborted safely prior to the notification being received by the
supervisor. In this, the supervisor doesn't end up doing work that the
workload does not want to complete anyways.
* Avoiding side effects - We don't want the syscall to be interruptible
once the supervisor starts doing work because it may not be trivial
to reverse the operation. For example, unmounting a file system may
take a long time, and it's hard to rollback, or treat that as
reentrant.
* Avoid breaking runtimes - Various runtimes do not GC when they are
during a syscall (or while running native code that subsequently
calls a syscall). If many notifications are blocked, and not picked
up by the supervisor, this can get the application into a bad state.

Alban Crequy reported a race condition userspace faces when we want to
add some fds and make the syscall return them[1] using seccomp notify.
The problem is that currently two different ioctl() calls are needed by
the process handling the syscalls (agent) for another userspace process
(target): SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ADDFD to allocate the fd and
SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_SEND to return that value. Therefore, it is possible
for the agent to do the first ioctl to add a file descriptor but the
target is interrupted (EINTR) before the agent does the second ioctl()
call.
This patch adds a flag to the ADDFD ioctl() so it adds the fd and
returns that value atomically to the target program, as suggested by
Kees Cook[2]. This is done by simply allowing
seccomp_do_user_notification() to add the fd and return it in this case.
Therefore, in this case the target wakes up from the wait in
seccomp_do_user_notification() either to interrupt the syscall or to add
the fd and return it.
This "allocate an fd and return" functionality is useful for syscalls
that return a file descriptor only, like connect(2). Other syscalls that
return a file descriptor but not as return value (or return more than
one fd), like socketpair(), pipe(), recvmsg with SCM_RIGHTs, will not
work with this flag.
This effectively combines SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ADDFD and
SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_SEND into an atomic opteration. The notification's
return value, nor error can be set by the user. Upon successful invocation
of the SECCOMP_IOCTL_NOTIF_ADDFD ioctl with the SECCOMP_ADDFD_FLAG_SEND
flag, the notifying process's errno will be 0, and the return value will
be the file descriptor number that was installed.

The current SECCOMP_RET_USER_NOTIF API allows for syscall supervision over
an fd. It is often used in settings where a supervising task emulates
syscalls on behalf of a supervised task in userspace, either to further
restrict the supervisee's syscall abilities or to circumvent kernel
enforced restrictions the supervisor deems safe to lift (e.g. actually
performing a mount(2) for an unprivileged container).
While SECCOMP_RET_USER_NOTIF allows for the interception of any syscall,
only a certain subset of syscalls could be correctly emulated. Over the
last few development cycles, the set of syscalls which can't be emulated
has been reduced due to the addition of pidfd_getfd(2). With this we are
now able to, for example, intercept syscalls that require the supervisor
to operate on file descriptors of the supervisee such as connect(2).
However, syscalls that cause new file descriptors to be installed can not
currently be correctly emulated since there is no way for the supervisor
to inject file descriptors into the supervisee. This patch adds a
new addfd ioctl to remove this restriction by allowing the supervisor to
install file descriptors into the intercepted task. By implementing this
feature via seccomp the supervisor effectively instructs the supervisee
to install a set of file descriptors into its own file descriptor table
during the intercepted syscall. This way it is possible to intercept
syscalls such as open() or accept(), and install (or replace, like
dup2(2)) the supervisor's resulting fd into the supervisee. One
replacement use-case would be to redirect the stdout and stderr of a
supervisee into log file descriptors opened by the supervisor.
The ioctl handling is based on the discussions[1] of how Extensible
Arguments should interact with ioctls. Instead of building size into
the addfd structure, make it a function of the ioctl command (which
is how sizes are normally passed to ioctls). To support forward and
backward compatibility, just mask out the direction and size, and match
everything. The size (and any future direction) checks are done along
with copy_struct_from_user() logic.
As a note, the seccomp_notif_addfd structure is laid out based on 8-byte
alignment without requiring packing as there have been packing issues
with uapi highlighted before[2][3]. Although we could overload the
newfd field and use -1 to indicate that it is not to be used, doing
so requires changing the size of the fd field, and introduces struct
packing complexity.

The restriction introduced in 7a0df7fbc145 ("seccomp: Make NEW_LISTENER and
TSYNC flags exclusive") is mostly artificial: there is enough information
in a seccomp user notification to tell which thread triggered a
notification. The reason it was introduced is because TSYNC makes the
syscall return a thread-id on failure, and NEW_LISTENER returns an fd, and
there's no way to distinguish between these two cases (well, I suppose the
caller could check all fds it has, then do the syscall, and if the return
value was an fd that already existed, then it must be a thread id, but
bleh).
Matthew would like to use these two flags together in the Chrome sandbox
which wants to use TSYNC for video drivers and NEW_LISTENER to proxy
syscalls.
So, let's fix this ugliness by adding another flag, TSYNC_ESRCH, which
tells the kernel to just return -ESRCH on a TSYNC error. This way,
NEW_LISTENER (and any subsequent seccomp() commands that want to return
positive values) don't conflict with each other.

Switch from BIT(0) to (1UL << 0).
First, there are already two different forms used in the header, so there's
no need to add a third. Second, the BIT() macros is kernel internal and
afaict not actually exposed to userspace. Maybe there's some magic there
I'm missing but it definitely causes issues when compiling a program that
tries to use SECCOMP_USER_NOTIF_FLAG_CONTINUE. It currently fails in the
following way:
# github.com/lxc/lxd/lxd
/usr/bin/ld: $WORK/b001/_x003.o: in function
`__do_user_notification_continue':
lxd/main_checkfeature.go:240: undefined reference to `BIT'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Switching to (1UL << 0) should prevent that and is more in line what is
already done in the rest of the header.

This allows the seccomp notifier to continue a syscall. A positive
discussion about this feature was triggered by a post to the
ksummit-discuss mailing list (cf. [3]) and took place during KSummit
(cf. [1]) and again at the containers/checkpoint-restore
micro-conference at Linux Plumbers.
Recently we landed seccomp support for SECCOMP_RET_USER_NOTIF (cf. [4])
which enables a process (watchee) to retrieve an fd for its seccomp
filter. This fd can then be handed to another (usually more privileged)
process (watcher). The watcher will then be able to receive seccomp
messages about the syscalls having been performed by the watchee.
This feature is heavily used in some userspace workloads. For example,
it is currently used to intercept mknod() syscalls in user namespaces
aka in containers.
The mknod() syscall can be easily filtered based on dev_t. This allows
us to only intercept a very specific subset of mknod() syscalls.
Furthermore, mknod() is not possible in user namespaces toto coelo and
so intercepting and denying syscalls that are not in the whitelist on
accident is not a big deal. The watchee won't notice a difference.
In contrast to mknod(), a lot of other syscall we intercept (e.g.
setxattr()) cannot be easily filtered like mknod() because they have
pointer arguments. Additionally, some of them might actually succeed in
user namespaces (e.g. setxattr() for all "user.*" xattrs). Since we
currently cannot tell seccomp to continue from a user notifier we are
stuck with performing all of the syscalls in lieu of the container. This
is a huge security liability since it is extremely difficult to
correctly assume all of the necessary privileges of the calling task
such that the syscall can be successfully emulated without escaping
other additional security restrictions (think missing CAP_MKNOD for
mknod(), or MS_NODEV on a filesystem etc.). This can be solved by
telling seccomp to resume the syscall.
One thing that came up in the discussion was the problem that another
thread could change the memory after userspace has decided to let the
syscall continue which is a well known TOCTOU with seccomp which is
present in other ways already.
The discussion showed that this feature is already very useful for any
syscall without pointer arguments. For any accidentally intercepted
non-pointer syscall it is safe to continue.
For syscalls with pointer arguments there is a race but for any cautious
userspace and the main usec cases the race doesn't matter. The notifier
is intended to be used in a scenario where a more privileged watcher
supervises the syscalls of lesser privileged watchee to allow it to get
around kernel-enforced limitations by performing the syscall for it
whenever deemed save by the watcher. Hence, if a user tricks the watcher
into allowing a syscall they will either get a deny based on
kernel-enforced restrictions later or they will have changed the
arguments in such a way that they manage to perform a syscall with
arguments that they would've been allowed to do anyway.
In general, it is good to point out again, that the notifier fd was not
intended to allow userspace to implement a security policy but rather to
work around kernel security mechanisms in cases where the watcher knows
that a given action is safe to perform.

This patch introduces a means for syscalls matched in seccomp to notify
some other task that a particular filter has been triggered.
The motivation for this is primarily for use with containers. For example,
if a container does an init_module(), we obviously don't want to load this
untrusted code, which may be compiled for the wrong version of the kernel
anyway. Instead, we could parse the module image, figure out which module
the container is trying to load and load it on the host.
As another example, containers cannot mount() in general since various
filesystems assume a trusted image. However, if an orchestrator knows that
e.g. a particular block device has not been exposed to a container for
writing, it want to allow the container to mount that block device (that
is, handle the mount for it).
This patch adds functionality that is already possible via at least two
other means that I know about, both of which involve ptrace(): first, one
could ptrace attach, and then iterate through syscalls via PTRACE_SYSCALL.
Unfortunately this is slow, so a faster version would be to install a
filter that does SECCOMP_RET_TRACE, which triggers a PTRACE_EVENT_SECCOMP.
Since ptrace allows only one tracer, if the container runtime is that
tracer, users inside the container (or outside) trying to debug it will not
be able to use ptrace, which is annoying. It also means that older
distributions based on Upstart cannot boot inside containers using ptrace,
since upstart itself uses ptrace to monitor services while starting.
The actual implementation of this is fairly small, although getting the
synchronization right was/is slightly complex.
Finally, it's worth noting that the classic seccomp TOCTOU of reading
memory data from the task still applies here, but can be avoided with
careful design of the userspace handler: if the userspace handler reads all
of the task memory that is necessary before applying its security policy,
the tracee's subsequent memory edits will not be read by the tracer.

license
Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:
NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.
Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

Right now, SECCOMP_RET_KILL_THREAD (neé SECCOMP_RET_KILL) kills the
current thread. There have been a few requests for this to kill the entire
process (the thread group). This cannot be just changed (discovered when
adding coredump support since coredumping kills the entire process)
because there are userspace programs depending on the thread-kill
behavior.
Instead, implement SECCOMP_RET_KILL_PROCESS, which is 0x80000000, and can
be processed as "-1" by the kernel, below the existing RET_KILL that is
ABI-set to "0". For userspace, SECCOMP_RET_ACTION_FULL is added to expand
the mask to the signed bit. Old userspace using the SECCOMP_RET_ACTION
mask will see SECCOMP_RET_KILL_PROCESS as 0 still, but this would only
be visible when examining the siginfo in a core dump from a RET_KILL_*,
where it will think it was thread-killed instead of process-killed.
Attempts to introduce this behavior via other ways (filter flags,
seccomp struct flags, masked RET_DATA bits) all come with weird
side-effects and baggage. This change preserves the central behavioral
expectations of the seccomp filter engine without putting too great
a burden on changes needed in userspace to use the new action.
The new action is discoverable by userspace through either the new
actions_avail sysctl or through the SECCOMP_GET_ACTION_AVAIL seccomp
operation. If used without checking for availability, old kernels
will treat RET_KILL_PROCESS as RET_KILL_THREAD (since the old mask
will produce RET_KILL_THREAD).

Add a new action, SECCOMP_RET_LOG, that logs a syscall before allowing
the syscall. At the implementation level, this action is identical to
the existing SECCOMP_RET_ALLOW action. However, it can be very useful when
initially developing a seccomp filter for an application. The developer
can set the default action to be SECCOMP_RET_LOG, maybe mark any
obviously needed syscalls with SECCOMP_RET_ALLOW, and then put the
application through its paces. A list of syscalls that triggered the
default action (SECCOMP_RET_LOG) can be easily gleaned from the logs and
that list can be used to build the syscall whitelist. Finally, the
developer can change the default action to the desired value.
This provides a more friendly experience than seeing the application get
killed, then updating the filter and rebuilding the app, seeing the
application get killed due to a different syscall, then updating the
filter and rebuilding the app, etc.
The functionality is similar to what's supported by the various LSMs.
SELinux has permissive mode, AppArmor has complain mode, SMACK has
bring-up mode, etc.
SECCOMP_RET_LOG is given a lower value than SECCOMP_RET_ALLOW as allow
while logging is slightly more restrictive than quietly allowing.
Unfortunately, the tests added for SECCOMP_RET_LOG are not capable of
inspecting the audit log to verify that the syscall was logged.
With this patch, the logic for deciding if an action will be logged is:
if action == RET_ALLOW:
do not log
else if action == RET_KILL && RET_KILL in actions_logged:
log
else if action == RET_LOG && RET_LOG in actions_logged:

Add a new filter flag, SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_LOG, that enables logging for
all actions except for SECCOMP_RET_ALLOW for the given filter.
SECCOMP_RET_KILL actions are always logged, when "kill" is in the
actions_logged sysctl, and SECCOMP_RET_ALLOW actions are never logged,
regardless of this flag.
This flag can be used to create noisy filters that result in all
non-allowed actions to be logged. A process may have one noisy filter,
which is loaded with this flag, as well as a quiet filter that's not
loaded with this flag. This allows for the actions in a set of filters
to be selectively conveyed to the admin.
Since a system could have a large number of allocated seccomp_filter
structs, struct packing was taken in consideration. On 64 bit x86, the
new log member takes up one byte of an existing four byte hole in the
struct. On 32 bit x86, the new log member creates a new four byte hole
(unavoidable) and consumes one of those bytes.
Unfortunately, the tests added for SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_LOG are not
capable of inspecting the audit log to verify that the actions taken in
the filter were logged.
With this patch, the logic for deciding if an action will be logged is:
if action == RET_ALLOW:

Userspace code that needs to check if the kernel supports a given action
may not be able to use the /proc/sys/kernel/seccomp/actions_avail
sysctl. The process may be running in a sandbox and, therefore,
sufficient filesystem access may not be available. This patch adds an
operation to the seccomp(2) syscall that allows userspace code to ask
the kernel if a given action is available.
If the action is supported by the kernel, 0 is returned. If the action
is not supported by the kernel, -1 is returned with errno set to
-EOPNOTSUPP. If this check is attempted on a kernel that doesn't support
this new operation, -1 is returned with errno set to -EINVAL meaning
that userspace code will have the ability to differentiate between the
two error cases.

Applying restrictive seccomp filter programs to large or diverse
codebases often requires handling threads which may be started early in
the process lifetime (e.g., by code that is linked in). While it is
possible to apply permissive programs prior to process start up, it is
difficult to further restrict the kernel ABI to those threads after that
point.
This change adds a new seccomp syscall flag to SECCOMP_SET_MODE_FILTER for
synchronizing thread group seccomp filters at filter installation time.
When calling seccomp(SECCOMP_SET_MODE_FILTER, SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_TSYNC,
filter) an attempt will be made to synchronize all threads in current's
threadgroup to its new seccomp filter program. This is possible iff all
threads are using a filter that is an ancestor to the filter current is
attempting to synchronize to. NULL filters (where the task is running as
SECCOMP_MODE_NONE) are also treated as ancestors allowing threads to be
transitioned into SECCOMP_MODE_FILTER. If prctrl(PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS,
...) has been set on the calling thread, no_new_privs will be set for
all synchronized threads too. On success, 0 is returned. On failure,
the pid of one of the failing threads will be returned and no filters
will have been applied.
The race conditions against another thread are:
- requesting TSYNC (already handled by sighand lock)
- performing a clone (already handled by sighand lock)
- changing its filter (already handled by sighand lock)
- calling exec (handled by cred_guard_mutex)
The clone case is assisted by the fact that new threads will have their
seccomp state duplicated from their parent before appearing on the tasklist.
Holding cred_guard_mutex means that seccomp filters cannot be assigned
while in the middle of another thread's exec (potentially bypassing
no_new_privs or similar). The call to de_thread() may kill threads waiting
for the mutex.
Changes across threads to the filter pointer includes a barrier.

This adds the new "seccomp" syscall with both an "operation" and "flags"
parameter for future expansion. The third argument is a pointer value,
used with the SECCOMP_SET_MODE_FILTER operation. Currently, flags must
be 0. This is functionally equivalent to prctl(PR_SET_SECCOMP, ...).
In addition to the TSYNC flag later in this patch series, there is a
non-zero chance that this syscall could be used for configuring a fixed
argument area for seccomp-tracer-aware processes to pass syscall arguments
in the future. Hence, the use of "seccomp" not simply "seccomp_add_filter"
for this syscall. Additionally, this syscall uses operation, flags,
and user pointer for arguments because strictly passing arguments via
a user pointer would mean seccomp itself would be unable to trivially
filter the seccomp syscall itself.
