fsnotify: create method handle_inode_event() in fsnotify_operations

2020-07-27T21:25:50+00:00

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.

audit: do not set FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD in audit marks mask

2020-07-27T21:16:33+00:00

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.

fsnotify: pass dir argument to handle_event() callback

2020-07-27T16:32:47+00:00

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.

audit: add syscall information to CONFIG_CHANGE records

2019-01-18T22:53:29+00:00

Tie syscall information to all CONFIG_CHANGE calls since they are all a
result of user actions.

Exclude user records from syscall context:
Since the function audit_log_common_recv_msg() is shared by a number of
AUDIT_CONFIG_CHANGE and the entire range of AUDIT_USER_* record types,
and since the AUDIT_CONFIG_CHANGE message type has been converted to a
syscall accompanied record type, special-case the AUDIT_USER_* range of
messages so they remain standalone records.

audit: minimize our use of audit_log_format()

2018-11-26T23:40:00+00:00

There are some cases where we are making multiple audit_log_format()
calls in a row, for no apparent reason.  Squash these down to a
single audit_log_format() call whenever possible.

audit: use session_info helper

2018-11-19T17:31:42+00:00

There are still a couple of places (mark and watch config changes) that
open code auid and ses fields in sequence in records instead of using
the audit_log_session_info() helper.  Use the helper.  Adjust the helper
to accommodate being the first fields.  Passes audit-testsuite.
