Previously, if ReadWritePaths= was nested inside a ReadOnlyPaths=
specification, then we'd first recursively apply the ReadOnlyPaths= paths, and
make everything below read-only, only in order to then flip the read-only bit
again for the subdirs listed in ReadWritePaths= below it.
This is not only ugly (as for the dirs in question we first turn on the RO bit,
only to turn it off again immediately after), but also problematic in
containers, where a container manager might have marked a set of dirs read-only
and this code will undo this is ReadWritePaths= is set for any.
With this patch behaviour in this regard is altered: ReadOnlyPaths= will not be
applied to the children listed in ReadWritePaths= in the first place, so that
we do not need to turn off the RO bit for those after all.
This means that ReadWritePaths=/ReadOnlyPaths= may only be used to turn on the
RO bit, but never to turn it off again. Or to say this differently: if some
dirs are marked read-only via some external tool, then ReadWritePaths= will not
undo it.
This is not only the safer option, but also more in-line with what the man page
currently claims:
"Entries (files or directories) listed in ReadWritePaths= are
accessible from within the namespace with the same access rights as
from outside."
To implement this change bind_remount_recursive() gained a new "blacklist"
string list parameter, which when passed may contain subdirs that shall be
excluded from the read-only mounting.
A number of functions are updated to add more debug logging to make this more
digestable.

Currently, systemd uses either the legacy hierarchies or the unified hierarchy.
When the legacy hierarchies are used, systemd uses a named legacy hierarchy
mounted on /sys/fs/cgroup/systemd without any kernel controllers for process
management. Due to the shortcomings in the legacy hierarchy, this involves a
lot of workarounds and complexities.
Because the unified hierarchy can be mounted and used in parallel to legacy
hierarchies, there's no reason for systemd to use a legacy hierarchy for
management even if the kernel resource controllers need to be mounted on legacy
hierarchies. It can simply mount the unified hierarchy under
/sys/fs/cgroup/systemd and use it without affecting other legacy hierarchies.
This disables a significant amount of fragile workaround logics and would allow
using features which depend on the unified hierarchy membership such bpf cgroup
v2 membership test. In time, this would also allow deleting the said
complexities.
This patch updates systemd so that it prefers the unified hierarchy for the
systemd cgroup controller hierarchy when legacy hierarchies are used for kernel
resource controllers.
* cg_unified(@controller) is introduced which tests whether the specific
controller in on unified hierarchy and used to choose the unified hierarchy
code path for process and service management when available. Kernel
controller specific operations remain gated by cg_all_unified().
* "systemd.legacy_systemd_cgroup_controller" kernel argument can be used to
force the use of legacy hierarchy for systemd cgroup controller.
* nspawn: By default nspawn uses the same hierarchies as the host. If
UNIFIED_CGROUP_HIERARCHY is set to 1, unified hierarchy is used for all. If
0, legacy for all.
* nspawn: arg_unified_cgroup_hierarchy is made an enum and now encodes one of
three options - legacy, only systemd controller on unified, and unified. The
value is passed into mount setup functions and controls cgroup configuration.
* nspawn: Interpretation of SYSTEMD_CGROUP_CONTROLLER to the actual mount
option is moved to mount_legacy_cgroup_hierarchy() so that it can take an
appropriate action depending on the configuration of the host.
v2: - CGroupUnified enum replaces open coded integer values to indicate the
cgroup operation mode.
- Various style updates.
v3: Fixed a bug in detect_unified_cgroup_hierarchy() introduced during v2.
v4: Restored legacy container on unified host support and fixed another bug in
detect_unified_cgroup_hierarchy().

A following patch will update cgroup handling so that the systemd controller
(/sys/fs/cgroup/systemd) can use the unified hierarchy even if the kernel
resource controllers are on the legacy hierarchies. This would require
distinguishing whether all controllers are on cgroup v2 or only the systemd
controller is. In preparation, this patch renames cg_unified() to
cg_all_unified().
This patch doesn't cause any functional changes.

SYSTEMD_NSPAWN_USE_CGNS allows to disable the use of cgroup namespaces.

Cgroup namespace

Normally we make all of /proc/sys read-only in a container, but if we do have
netns enabled we can make /proc/sys/net writable, as things are virtualized
then.
|
|
Such mkdir errors happen for example when trying to mkdir /sys/fs/selinux.
/sys is documented to be readonly in the container, so mkdir errors below /sys
can be expected.
They shouldn't be logged as warnings since they lead users to think that
there is something wrong.

(NOTE: Cgroup namespaces work with legacy and unified hierarchies: "This is
completely backward compatible and will be completely invisible to any existing
cgroup users (except for those running inside a cgroup namespace and looking at
/proc/pid/cgroup of tasks outside their namespace.)"
(https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/containers/2016-January/036582.html)
So there is no need to special case unified.)
If cgroup namespaces are supported we skip mount_cgroups() in the
outer_child(). Instead, we unshare(CLONE_NEWCGROUP) in the inner_child() and
only then do we call mount_cgroups().
The clean way to handle cgroup namespaces would be to delegate mounting of
cgroups completely to the init system in the container. However, this would
likely break backward compatibility with the UNIFIED_CGROUP_HIERARCHY flag of
systemd-nspawn. Also no cgroupfs would be mounted whenever the user simply
requests a shell and no init is available to mount cgroups. Hence, we introduce
mount_legacy_cgns_supported(). After calling unshare(CLONE_NEWCGROUP) it parses
/proc/self/cgroup to find the mounted controllers and mounts them inside the
new cgroup namespace. This should preserve backward compatibility with the
UNIFIED_CGROUP_HIERARCHY flag and mount a cgroupfs when no init in the
container is running.

for bind-mounts when they already exist. This allows
bind-mounting over read-only files.

Since Linux v4.4-rc1, __DEVEL__sane_behavior does not exist anymore and
is replaced by a new fstype "cgroup2".
With this patch, systemd no longer supports the old (unstable) way of
doing unified hierarchy with __DEVEL__sane_behavior and systemd now
requires Linux v4.4 for unified hierarchy.
Non-unified hierarchy is still the default and is unchanged by this
patch.

This should be handled fine now by .dir-locals.el, so need to carry that
stuff in every file.

string-util.[ch]
There are more than enough calls doing string manipulations to deserve
its own files, hence do something about it.
This patch also sorts the #include blocks of all files that needed to be
updated, according to the sorting suggestions from CODING_STYLE. Since
pretty much every file needs our string manipulation functions this
effectively means that most files have sorted #include blocks now.
Also touches a few unrelated include files.

This really deserves its own file, given how much code this is now.

Since v3.11/7dc5dbc ("sysfs: Restrict mounting sysfs"), the kernel
doesn't allow mounting sysfs if you don't have CAP_SYS_ADMIN rights over
the network namespace.
So the mounting /sys as a tmpfs code introduced in
d8fc6a000fe21b0c1ba27fbfed8b42d00b349a4b doesn't work with user
namespaces if we don't use private-net. The reason is that we mount
sysfs inside the container and we're in the network namespace of the host
but we don't have CAP_SYS_ADMIN over that namespace.
To fix that, we mount /sys as a sysfs (instead of tmpfs) if we don't use
private network and ignore the /sys-as-a-tmpfs code if we find that /sys
is already mounted as sysfs.
Fixes #1555

sysfs below it
This way we can hide things like /sys/firmware or /sys/hypervisor from
the container, while keeping the device tree around.
While this is a security benefit in itself it also allows us to fix
issue #1277.
Previously we'd mount /sys before creating the user namespace, in order
to be able to mount /sys/fs/cgroup/* beneath it (which resides in it),
which we can only mount outside of the user namespace. To ensure that
the user namespace owns the network namespace we'd set up the network
namespace at the same time as the user namespace. Thus, we'd still see
the /sys/class/net/ from the originating network namespace, even though
we are in our own network namespace now. With this patch, /sys is
mounted before transitioning into the user namespace as tmpfs, so that
we can also mount /sys/fs/cgroup/* into it this early. The directories
such as /sys/class/ are then later added in from the real sysfs from
inside the network and user namespace so that they actually show whatis
available in it.
Fixes #1277

We didn#t actually pass ownership of /run to the UID in the container
since some releases, let's fix that.
