nfsd: set security label during create operations

When security labeling is enabled, the client can pass a file security
label as part of a create operation for the new file, similar to mode
and other attributes. At present, the security label is received by nfsd
and passed down to nfsd_create_setattr(), but nfsd_setattr() is never
called and therefore the label is never set on the new file. This bug
may have been introduced on or around commit d6a97d3f589a ("NFSD:
add security label to struct nfsd_attrs"). Looking at nfsd_setattr()
I am uncertain as to whether the same issue presents for
file ACLs and therefore requires a similar fix for those.

An alternative approach would be to introduce a new LSM hook to set the
"create SID" of the current task prior to the actual file creation, which
would atomically label the new inode at creation time. This would be better
for SELinux and a similar approach has been used previously
(see security_dentry_create_files_as) but perhaps not usable by other LSMs.

Reproducer:
1. Install a Linux distro with SELinux - Fedora is easiest
2. git clone https://github.com/SELinuxProject/selinux-testsuite
3. Install the requisite dependencies per selinux-testsuite/README.md
4. Run something like the following script:
MOUNT=$HOME/selinux-testsuite
sudo systemctl start nfs-server
sudo exportfs -o rw,no_root_squash,security_label localhost:$MOUNT
sudo mkdir -p /mnt/selinux-testsuite
sudo mount -t nfs -o vers=4.2 localhost:$MOUNT /mnt/selinux-testsuite
pushd /mnt/selinux-testsuite/
sudo make -C policy load
pushd tests/filesystem
sudo runcon -t test_filesystem_t ./create_file -f trans_test_file \
-e test_filesystem_filetranscon_t -v
sudo rm -f trans_test_file
popd
sudo make -C policy unload
popd
sudo umount /mnt/selinux-testsuite
sudo exportfs -u localhost:$MOUNT
sudo rmdir /mnt/selinux-testsuite
sudo systemctl stop nfs-server

Expected output:
<eliding noise from commands run prior to or after the test itself>
Process context:
unconfined_u:unconfined_r:test_filesystem_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023
Created file: trans_test_file

nfsd: use __fput_sync() to avoid delayed closing of files.

Calling fput() directly or though filp_close() from a kernel thread like
nfsd causes the final __fput() (if necessary) to be called from a
workqueue. This means that nfsd is not forced to wait for any work to
complete. If the ->release or ->destroy_inode function is slow for any
reason, this can result in nfsd closing files more quickly than the
workqueue can complete the close and the queue of pending closes can
grow without bounces (30 million has been seen at one customer site,
though this was in part due to a slowness in xfs which has since been
fixed).

nfsd does not need this. It is quite appropriate and safe for nfsd to
do its own close work. There is no reason that close should ever wait
for nfsd, so no deadlock can occur.

It should be safe and sensible to change all fput() calls to
__fput_sync(). However in the interests of caution this patch only
changes two - the two that can be most directly affected by client
behaviour and could occur at high frequency.

- the fput() implicitly in flip_close() is changed to __fput_sync()
by calling get_file() first to ensure filp_close() doesn't do
the final fput() itself. If is where files opened for IO are closed.

- the fput() in nfsd_read() is also changed. This is where directories
opened for readdir are closed.

This ensure that minimal fput work is queued to the workqueue.

This removes the need for the flush_delayed_fput() call in
nfsd_file_close_inode_sync()

ima: Move to LSM infrastructure

Move hardcoded IMA function calls (not appraisal-specific functions) from
various places in the kernel to the LSM infrastructure, by introducing a
new LSM named 'ima' (at the end of the LSM list and always enabled like
'integrity').

Having IMA before EVM in the Makefile is sufficient to preserve the
relative order of the new 'ima' LSM in respect to the upcoming 'evm' LSM,
and thus the order of IMA and EVM function calls as when they were
hardcoded.

Make moved functions as static (except ima_post_key_create_or_update(),
which is not in ima_main.c), and register them as implementation of the
respective hooks in the new function init_ima_lsm().

Select CONFIG_SECURITY_PATH, to ensure that the path-based LSM hook
path_post_mknod is always available and ima_post_path_mknod() is always
executed to mark files as new, as before the move.

A slight difference is that IMA and EVM functions registered for the
inode_post_setattr, inode_post_removexattr, path_post_mknod,
inode_post_create_tmpfile, inode_post_set_acl and inode_post_remove_acl
won't be executed for private inodes. Since those inodes are supposed to be
fs-internal, they should not be of interest to IMA or EVM. The S_PRIVATE
flag is used for anonymous inodes, hugetlbfs, reiserfs xattrs, XFS scrub
and kernel-internal tmpfs files.

Conditionally register ima_post_key_create_or_update() if
CONFIG_IMA_MEASURE_ASYMMETRIC_KEYS is enabled. Also, conditionally register
ima_kernel_module_request() if CONFIG_INTEGRITY_ASYMMETRIC_KEYS is enabled.

Finally, add the LSM_ID_IMA case in lsm_list_modules_test.c.

change has a global effect, causing retransmission by all clients of

nfsd: Fix reading via splice

nfsd_splice_actor() has a clause in its loop that chops up a compound page
into individual pages such that if the same page is seen twice in a row, it
is discarded the second time. This is a problem with the advent of
shmem_splice_read() as that inserts zero_pages into the pipe in lieu of
pages that aren't present in the pagecache.

Fix this by assuming that the last page is being extended only if the
currently stored length + starting offset is not currently on a page
boundary.

This can be tested by NFS-exporting a tmpfs filesystem on the test machine
and truncating it to more than a page in size (eg. truncate -s 8192) and
then reading it by NFS. The first page will be all zeros, but thereafter
garbage will be read.

Note: I wonder if we can ever get a situation now where we get a splice
that gives us contiguous parts of a page in separate actor calls. As NFSD
can only be splicing from a file (I think), there are only three sources of
the page: copy_splice_read(), shmem_splice_read() and file_splice_read().
The first allocates pages for the data it reads, so the problem cannot
occur; the second should never see a partial page; and the third waits for
each page to become available before we're allowed to read from it.

nfsd4_encode_read() calls nfsd_splice_read() directly. As far as I

unnecessary because rq_next_page is already set correctly.

Moreover, resetting it might even be incorrect if previous
operations in the COMPOUND have already consumed at least a page of
the send buffer. I would expect that the result would be encoding
the READ payload over previously-encoded results.
