[PATCH v10 3/9] open: O_EMPTYPATH: procfs-less file descriptor re-opening

From: Aleksa Sarai <hidden>
Date: 2019-07-19 16:44:05
Also in: linux-alpha, linux-arch, linux-arm-kernel, linux-fsdevel, linux-kselftest, linux-mips, linux-s390, linux-sh, linuxppc-dev, lkml, sparclinux
Subsystem: alpha port, file locking (flock() and fcntl()/lockf()), filesystems (vfs and infrastructure), generic include/asm header files, parisc architecture, sparc + ultrasparc (sparc/sparc64), the rest · Maintainers: Richard Henderson, Matt Turner, Magnus Lindholm, Jeff Layton, Chuck Lever, Alexander Viro, Christian Brauner, Arnd Bergmann, "James E.J. Bottomley", Helge Deller, "David S. Miller", Andreas Larsson, Linus Torvalds

Userspace has made use of /proc/self/fd very liberally to allow for
descriptors to be re-opened. There are a wide variety of uses for this
feature, but it has always required constructing a pathname and could
not be done without procfs mounted. The obvious solution for this is to
extend openat(2) to have an AT_EMPTY_PATH-equivalent -- O_EMPTYPATH.

Now that descriptor re-opening has been made safe through the new
magic-link resolution restrictions, we can replicate these restrictions
for O_EMPTYPATH. In particular, we only allow "upgrading" the file
descriptor if the corresponding FMODE_PATH_* bit is set (or the
FMODE_{READ,WRITE} cases for non-O_PATH file descriptors).

When doing openat(O_EMPTYPATH|O_PATH), O_PATH takes precedence and
O_EMPTYPATH is ignored. Very few users ever have a need to O_PATH
re-open an existing file descriptor, and so accommodating them at the
expense of further complicating O_PATH makes little sense. Ultimately,
if users ask for this we can always add RESOLVE_EMPTY_PATH to
resolveat(2) in the future.
