Zdenek reported seeing some AVC denials due to nfsd trying to set
delegations:
type=AVC msg=audit(09.11.2023 09:03:46.411:496) : avc: denied { lease } for pid=5127 comm=rpc.nfsd capability=lease scontext=system_u:system_r:nfsd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:nfsd_t:s0 tclass=capability permissive=0
When setting delegations on behalf of nfsd, we don't want to do all of
the normal capabilty and LSM checks. nfsd is a kernel thread and runs
with CAP_LEASE set, so the uid checks end up being a no-op in most cases
anyway.
Some nfsd functions can end up running in normal process context when
tearing down the server. At that point, the CAP_LEASE check can fail and
cause the client to not tear down delegations when expected.
Also, the way the per-fs ->setlease handlers work today is a little
convoluted. The non-trivial ones are wrappers around generic_setlease,
so when they fail due to permission problems they usually they end up
doing a little extra work only to determine that they can't set the
lease anyway. It would be more efficient to do those checks earlier.
Transplant the permission checking from generic_setlease to
vfs_setlease, which will make the permission checking happen earlier on
filesystems that have a ->setlease operation. Add a new kernel_setlease
function that bypasses these checks, and switch nfsd to use that instead
of vfs_setlease.
There is one behavioral change here: prior this patch the
setlease_notifier would fire even if the lease attempt was going to fail
the security checks later. With this change, it doesn't fire until the
caller has passed them. I think this is a desirable change overall. nfsd
is the only user of the setlease_notifier and it doesn't benefit from
being notified about failed attempts.
