48399c0b0e eCryptfs: Replace miscdev read/write magic numbers
ecryptfs_miscdev_read() and ecryptfs_miscdev_write() contained many
magic numbers for specifying packet header field sizes and offsets. This
patch defines those values and replaces the magic values.

b59db43ad4 eCryptfs: Prevent file create race condition
The file creation path prematurely called d_instantiate() and
unlock_new_inode() before the eCryptfs inode info was fully
allocated and initialized and before the eCryptfs metadata was written
to the lower file.

This could result in race conditions in subsequent file and inode
operations leading to unexpected error conditions or a null pointer
dereference while attempting to use the unallocated memory.

778aeb42a7 eCryptfs: Cleanup and optimize ecryptfs_lookup_interpose()
ecryptfs_lookup_interpose() has turned into spaghetti code over the
years. This is an effort to clean it up.

 - Shorten overly descriptive variable names such as ecryptfs_dentry
 - Simplify gotos and error paths
 - Create helper function for reading plaintext i_size from metadata

It also includes an optimization when reading i_size from the metadata.
A complete page-sized kmem_cache_alloc() was being done to read in 16
bytes of metadata. The buffer for that is now statically declared.

5ccf92037c eCryptfs: Cleanup inode initialization code
The eCryptfs inode get, initialization, and dentry interposition code
has two separate paths. One is for when dentry interposition is needed
after doing things like a mkdir in the lower filesystem and the other
is needed after a lookup. Unlocking new inodes and doing a d_add() needs
to happen at different times, depending on which type of dentry
interposing is being done.

This patch cleans up the inode get and initialization code paths and
splits them up so that the locking and d_add() differences mentioned
above can be handled appropriately in a later patch.

3aeb86ea4c eCryptfs: Handle failed metadata read in lookup
When failing to read the lower file's crypto metadata during a lookup,
eCryptfs must continue on without throwing an error. For example, there
may be a plaintext file in the lower mount point that the user wants to
delete through the eCryptfs mount.

If an error is encountered while reading the metadata in lookup(), the
eCryptfs inode's size could be incorrect. We must be sure to reread the
plaintext inode size from the metadata when performing an open() or
setattr(). The metadata is already being read in those paths, so this
adds minimal performance overhead.

This patch introduces a flag which will track whether or not the
plaintext inode size has been read so that an incorrect i_size can be
fixed in the open() or setattr() paths.

332ab16f83 eCryptfs: Add reference counting to lower files
For any given lower inode, eCryptfs keeps only one lower file open and
multiplexes all eCryptfs file operations through that lower file. The
lower file was considered "persistent" and stayed open from the first
lookup through the lifetime of the inode.

This patch keeps the notion of a single, per-inode lower file, but adds
reference counting around the lower file so that it is closed when not
currently in use. If the reference count is at 0 when an operation (such
as open, create, etc.) needs to use the lower file, a new lower file is
opened. Since the file is no longer persistent, all references to the
term persistent file are changed to lower file.

Locking is added around the sections of code that opens the lower file
and assign the pointer in the inode info, as well as the code the fputs
the lower file when all eCryptfs users are done with it.

This patch is needed to fix issues, when mounted on top of the NFSv3
client, where the lower file is left silly renamed until the eCryptfs
inode is destroyed.

f4e60e6b30 eCryptfs: Strip metadata in xattr flag in encrypted view
The ecryptfs_encrypted_view mount option provides a unified way of
viewing encrypted eCryptfs files.  If the metadata is stored in a xattr,
the metadata is moved to the file header when the file is read inside

allows eCryptfs to treat the file as an eCryptfs file with a header
at the front.

157f107135 eCryptfs: Fix metadata in xattr feature regression
Fixes regression in 8faece5f90

When using the ecryptfs_xattr_metadata mount option, eCryptfs stores the
metadata (normally stored at the front of the file) in the user.ecryptfs
xattr.  This causes ecryptfs_crypt_stat.num_header_bytes_at_front to be
0, since there is no header data at the front of the file.  This results
in too much memory being requested and ENOMEM being returned from
ecryptfs_write_metadata().

This patch fixes the problem by using the num_header_bytes_at_front
variable for specifying the max size of the metadata, despite whether it
is stored in the header or xattr.

84814d642a eCryptfs: don't encrypt file key with filename key
eCryptfs has file encryption keys (FEK), file encryption key encryption
keys (FEKEK), and filename encryption keys (FNEK).  The per-file FEK is
encrypted with one or more FEKEKs and stored in the header of the
encrypted file.  I noticed that the FEK is also being encrypted by the
FNEK.  This is a problem if a user wants to use a different FNEK than
their FEKEK, as their file contents will still be accessible with the
FNEK.

This is a minimalistic patch which prevents the FNEKs signatures from
being copied to the inode signatures list.  Ultimately, it keeps the FEK
from being encrypted with a FNEK.

9c79f34f7e eCryptfs: Filename Encryption: Tag 70 packets
This patchset implements filename encryption via a passphrase-derived
mount-wide Filename Encryption Key (FNEK) specified as a mount parameter.
Each encrypted filename has a fixed prefix indicating that eCryptfs should
try to decrypt the filename.  When eCryptfs encounters this prefix, it
decodes the filename into a tag 70 packet and then decrypts the packet
contents using the FNEK, setting the filename to the decrypted filename.
Both unencrypted and encrypted filenames can reside in the same lower
filesystem.

Because filename encryption expands the length of the filename during the
encoding stage, eCryptfs will not properly handle filenames that are
already near the maximum filename length.

In the present implementation, eCryptfs must be able to produce a match
against the lower encrypted and encoded filename representation when given
a plaintext filename.  Therefore, two files having the same plaintext name
will encrypt and encode into the same lower filename if they are both
encrypted using the same FNEK.  This can be changed by finding a way to
replace the prepended bytes in the blocked-aligned filename with random
characters; they are hashes of the FNEK right now, so that it is possible
to deterministically map from a plaintext filename to an encrypted and
encoded filename in the lower filesystem.  An implementation using random
characters will have to decode and decrypt every single directory entry in
any given directory any time an event occurs wherein the VFS needs to
determine whether a particular file exists in the lower directory and the
decrypted and decoded filenames have not yet been extracted for that
directory.

Thanks to Tyler Hicks and David Kleikamp for assistance in the development
of this patchset.

This patch:

A tag 70 packet contains a filename encrypted with a Filename Encryption
Key (FNEK).  This patch implements functions for writing and parsing tag
70 packets.  This patch also adds definitions and extends structures to
support filename encryption.

746f1e558b eCryptfs: Privileged kthread for lower file opens
eCryptfs would really like to have read-write access to all files in the
lower filesystem.  Right now, the persistent lower file may be opened
read-only if the attempt to open it read-write fails.  One way to keep
from having to do that is to have a privileged kthread that can open the
lower persistent file on behalf of the user opening the eCryptfs file;
this patch implements this functionality.

This patch will properly allow a less-privileged user to open the eCryptfs
file, followed by a more-privileged user opening the eCryptfs file, with
the first user only being able to read and the second user being able to
both read and write.  eCryptfs currently does this wrong; it will wind up
calling vfs_write() on a file that was opened read-only.  This is fixed in
this patch.

d3e49afbb6 eCryptfs: remove unnecessary page decrypt call
The page decrypt calls in ecryptfs_write() are both pointless and buggy.
Pointless because ecryptfs_get_locked_page() has already brought the page
up to date, and buggy because prior mmap writes will just be blown away by
the decrypt call.

This patch also removes the declaration of a now-nonexistent function
ecryptfs_write_zeros().

Thanks to Eric Sandeen and David Kleikamp for helping to track this
down.

   fsx w/ mmap dies quickly ( < 100 ops) without this, and survives
   nicely (to millions of ops+) with it in place.

6a3fd92e73 eCryptfs: make key module subsystem respect namespaces
Make eCryptfs key module subsystem respect namespaces.

Since I will be removing the netlink interface in a future patch, I just made
changes to the netlink.c code so that it will not break the build.  With my
recent patches, the kernel module currently defaults to the device handle
interface rather than the netlink interface.

f66e883eb6 eCryptfs: integrate eCryptfs device handle into the module.
Update the versioning information.  Make the message types generic.  Add an
outgoing message queue to the daemon struct.  Make the functions to parse
and write the packet lengths available to the rest of the module.  Add
functions to create and destroy the daemon structs.  Clean up some of the
comments and make the code a little more consistent with itself.

af440f5292 ecryptfs: check for existing key_tfm at mount time
Jeff Moyer pointed out that a mount; umount loop of ecryptfs, with the same
cipher & other mount options, created a new ecryptfs_key_tfm_cache item
each time, and the cache could grow quite large this way.

Looking at this with mhalcrow, we saw that ecryptfs_parse_options()
unconditionally called ecryptfs_add_new_key_tfm(), which is what was adding
these items.

Refactor ecryptfs_get_tfm_and_mutex_for_cipher_name() to create a new
helper function, ecryptfs_tfm_exists(), which checks for the cipher on the
cached key_tfm_list, and sets a pointer to it if it exists.  This can then
be called from ecryptfs_parse_options(), and new key_tfm's can be added
only when a cached one is not found.

With list locking changes suggested by akpm.
