2022-01-26filesystem: fall back to path-only links if UUID cannot be determinedEric Biggers
This is needed to allow creating protector links to btrfs filesystems. Update https://github.com/google/fscrypt/issues/339

This is needed to make FindMount() work on btrfs filesystems. Update https://github.com/google/fscrypt/issues/339
2022-01-19filesystem: add back canonicalizePath()Eric Biggers
Restore the canonicalizePath() function from before commit f2eb79fb5fb10275c014b55c13e28ff02d3b70a8, since it's needed again. Update https://github.com/google/fscrypt/issues/339
2022-01-19filesystem: add back the mountsByPath mapEric Biggers
Add back the mountsByPath map, which indexes all Mounts by mountpoint. This is needed again. To avoid confusion, also rename two local variables named mountsByPath. mountsByPath won't contain nil entries, so also make AllFilesystems() use it instead of mountsByDevice. This shouldn't change its behavior. Update https://github.com/google/fscrypt/issues/339

2021-12-23cli-tests: add helper functions to get protector descriptorsEric Biggers
2021-12-22filesystem: store mountpoint in link files as a fallbackEric Biggers
Currently, linked protectors use filesystem link files of the form "UUID=<uuid>". These links get broken if the filesystem's UUID changes, e.g. due to the filesystem being re-created even if the ".fscrypt" directory is backed up and restored. To prevent links from being broken (in most cases), start storing the mountpoint path in the link files too, in the form "UUID=<uuid>\nPATH=<path>\n". When following a link, try the UUID first, and if it doesn't work try the PATH. While it's possible that the path changed too, for login protectors (the usual use case of linked protectors) this won't be an issue as the path will always be "/". An alternative solution would be to fall back to scanning all filesystems for the needed protector descriptor. I decided not to do that, since relying on a global scan doesn't seem to be a good design. It wouldn't scale to large numbers of filesystems, it could cross security boundaries, and it would make it possible for adding a new filesystem to break fscrypt on existing filesystems. And if a global scan was an acceptable way to find protectors during normal use, then there would be no need for link files in the first place. Note: this change is backwards compatible (i.e., fscrypt will continue to recognize old link files) but not forwards-compatible (i.e., previous versions of fscrypt won't recognize new link files). Fixes https://github.com/google/fscrypt/issues/311

filesystem: avoid accessing irrelevant filesystems
2021-12-20filesystem: avoid accessing irrelevant filesystemsEric Biggers
Forbid 'fscrypt setup' on filesystems that aren't expected to support encryption (other than the root filesystem), and skip looking for fscrypt metadata directories on such filesystems. This has two benefits. First, it avoids the printing of annoying warnings like: pam_fscrypt[75038]: stat /run/user/0/.fscrypt: permission denied pam_fscrypt[75038]: stat /run/user/0/.fscrypt/policies: permission denied pam_fscrypt[75038]: stat /run/user/0/.fscrypt/protectors: permission denied pam_fscrypt[75038]: stat /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/.fscrypt: invalid argument pam_fscrypt[75038]: stat /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/.fscrypt/policies: invalid argument pam_fscrypt[75038]: stat /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/.fscrypt/protectors: invalid argument pam_fscrypt[75038]: stat /sys/fs/pstore/.fscrypt: permission denied pam_fscrypt[75038]: stat /sys/fs/pstore/.fscrypt/policies: permission denied pam_fscrypt[75038]: stat /sys/fs/pstore/.fscrypt/protectors: permission denied Second, it avoids long delays or side effects on some filesystems. To do this, introduce an allowlist of filesystem types that fscrypt will recognize. I wanted to avoid doing this, since this list will need to be updated in the future, but I don't see a better solution.

pam: avoid compiler warning in copyIntoSecret()
2021-12-19Set owner of login protectors to correct userEric Biggers
When the root user creates a login protector for a non-root user, make sure to chown() the protector file to make it owned by the user. Without this, the protector cannot be updated by the user, which causes it to get out of sync if the user changes their login passphrase. Fixes https://github.com/google/fscrypt/issues/319
2021-12-19pam: avoid compiler warning in copyIntoSecret()Eric Biggers
gcc 11 enabled -Wmaybe-uninitialized by default. It causes a false-positive warning in copyIntoSecret() because gcc doesn't understand that mlock() is special and doesn't read from the memory. Just initialize the memory to avoid this warning.

2021-10-05Adjust recovery passphrase generationEric Biggers
As per the feedback at https://github.com/google/fscrypt/issues/115 where users didn't understand that the recovery passphrase is important, restore the original behavior where recovery passphrase generation happens automatically without a prompt. This applies to the case where 'fscrypt encrypt' is using a login protector on a non-root filesystem. However, leave the --no-recovery option so that the recovery passphrase can still be disabled if the user really wants to. Also, clarify the information provided about the recovery passphrase.

2021-09-14cmd/fscrypt: recognize no-key names containing hyphenEric Biggers
In Linux 5.15, the no-key name format is changing again; see https://git.kernel.org/linus/ba47b515f5940603. isPossibleNoKeyName() sometimes doesn't recognize the new no-key names. Update it accordingly to recognize all possible no-key names. Note: isPossibleNoKeyName() is only used as a heuristic to check whether a v1-encrypted directory is incompletely locked or not. Therefore, it's not too important whether it works. However, this change is needed for cli-tests/t_v1_policy to pass.
2021-09-14cli-tests/common.sh: remove argument count checksEric Biggers
These confuse the latest version of shellcheck into thinking that functions which take no arguments actually take arguments, which triggers a bunch of warnings like "Use func "$@" if function's $1 should mean script's $1", which causes 'make lint' to fail. These checks aren't too useful, so just remove them.

A lot of people are already using fscrypt, so in practice we haven't been breaking backwards compatibility and aren't going to. Just remove the scary-sounding "Note about stability".
2021-09-13README: remove note about planned commandsEric Biggers
These would still be nice to add. However, the mention of them in the README is misleading because people reading it might come away with the impression that there is currently no way to back up fscrypt metadata or to recover directories -- which isn't true. (The fscrypt metadata is just a directory which can be backed up like any other directory. And 'fscrypt encrypt' already offers to generate a recovery passphrase when the directory and protector are on different filesystems.) Just remove this note; it doesn't really add any value.
