This is already done in regular mode, but was missing when PlaintextNames mode
is enabled. As a result, symlinks created by non-root users were still owned
by root afterwards.
Fixes https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/issues/176
In PlaintextNames mode the "gocryptfs.longname." prefix does not have any
special meaning. We should not attempt to read the directory IV or to
create special .name files.
Partially fixes https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/issues/174
If the user manages to replace the directory with
a symlink at just the right time, we could be tricked
into chown'ing the wrong file.
This change fixes the race by using fchownat, which
unfortunately is not available on darwin, hence a compat
wrapper is added.
Scenario, as described by @slackner at
https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/issues/177 :
1. Create a forward mount point with `plaintextnames` enabled
2. Mount as root user with `allow_other`
3. For testing purposes create a file `/tmp/file_owned_by_root`
which is owned by the root user
4. As a regular user run inside of the GoCryptFS mount:
```
mkdir tempdir
mknod tempdir/file_owned_by_root p &
mv tempdir tempdir2
ln -s /tmp tempdir
```
When the steps are done fast enough and in the right order
(run in a loop!), the device file will be created in
`tempdir`, but the `lchown` will be executed by following
the symlink. As a result, the ownership of the file located
at `/tmp/file_owned_by_root` will be changed.
Fixes https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/issues/171
Steps to reproduce:
* Create a regular forward mount point
* Create a new directory in the mount point
* Manually delete the gocryptfs.diriv file from the corresponding ciphertext
directory
* Attempt to delete the directory with 'rmdir <dirname>'
Although the code explicitly checks for empty directories, it will still attempt
to move the non-existent gocryptfs.diriv file and fails with:
rmdir: failed to remove '<dirname>': No such file or directory
Fixes https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/issues/170
Steps to reproduce the problem:
* Create a regular forward mount point
* Create a file with a shortname and one with a long filename
* Try to run 'mv <shortname> <longname>'
This should actually work and replace the existing file, but instead it
fails with:
mv: cannot move '<shortname>' to '<longname>': File exists
The problem is the creation of the .name file. If the target already exists
we can safely ignore the EEXIST error and just keep the existing .name file.
Our byte cache pools are sized acc. to MAX_KERNEL_WRITE, but the
running kernel may have a higher limit set. Clamp to what we can
handle.

MacOS creates lots of these files, and if the directory is otherwise
empty, we would throw an IO error to the unsuspecting user.
With this patch, we log a warning, but otherwise pretend we did not
see it.

...and if Getdents is not available at all.
Due to this warning I now know that SSHFS always returns DT_UNKNOWN:
gocryptfs[8129]: Getdents: convertDType: received DT_UNKNOWN, falling back to Lstat
This behavoir is confirmed at http://ahefner.livejournal.com/16875.html:
"With sshfs, I finally found that obscure case. The dtype is always set to DT_UNKNOWN [...]"
Remove the "Masterkey" field from fusefrontend.Args because it
should not be stored longer than neccessary. Instead pass the
masterkey as a separate argument to the filesystem initializers.
Then overwrite it with zeros immediately so we don't have
to wait for garbage collection.
Note that the crypto implementation still stores at least a
masterkey-derived value, so this change makes it harder, but not
impossible, to extract the encryption keys from memory.

Due to RMW, we always need read permissions on the backing file. This is a
problem if the file permissions do not allow reading (i.e. 0200 permissions).
This patch works around that problem by chmod'ing the file, obtaining a fd,
and chmod'ing it back.
Test included.
Issue reported at: https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/issues/125
Previously we ran through the decryption steps even for an empty
ciphertext slice. The functions handle it correctly, but returning
early skips all the extra calls.
Speeds up the tar extract benchmark by about 4%.
We use two levels of buffers:
1) 4kiB+overhead for each ciphertext block
2) 128kiB+overhead for each FUSE write (32 ciphertext blocks)
This commit adds a sync.Pool for both levels.
The memory-efficiency for small writes could be improved,
as we now always use a 128kiB buffer.
This fixes a few issues I have found reviewing the code:
1) Limit the amount of data ReadLongName() will read. Previously,
you could send gocryptfs into out-of-memory by symlinking
gocryptfs.diriv to /dev/zero.
2) Handle the empty input case in unPad16() by returning an
error. Previously, it would panic with an out-of-bounds array
read. It is unclear to me if this could actually be triggered.
3) Reject empty names after base64-decoding in DecryptName().
An empty name crashes emeCipher.Decrypt().
It is unclear to me if B64.DecodeString() can actually return
a non-error empty result, but let's guard against it anyway.
We do not have to track the writeOnly status because the kernel
will not forward read requests on a write-only FD to us anyway.
I have verified this behavoir manually on a 4.10.8 kernel and also
added a testcase.
Force decode of encrypted files even if the integrity check fails, instead of
failing with an IO error. Warning messages are still printed to syslog if corrupted
files are encountered.
It can be useful to recover files from disks with bad sectors or other corrupted
media.
Closes https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/pull/102 .
go-fuse has added a new method to the nodefs.File interface that
caused this build error:
internal/fusefrontend/file.go:75: cannot use file literal (type *file) as type nodefs.File in return argument:
*file does not implement nodefs.File (missing Flock method)
Fixes https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/issues/104 and
prevents the problem from happening again.
The volatile inode numbers that we used before cause "find" to complain and error out.
Virtual inode numbers are derived from their parent file inode number by adding 10^19,
which is hopefully large enough no never cause problems in practice.
If the backing directory contains inode numbers higher than that, stat() on these files
will return EOVERFLOW.
Example directory lising after this change:
$ ls -i
926473 gocryptfs.conf
1000000000000926466 gocryptfs.diriv
944878 gocryptfs.longname.hmZojMqC6ns47eyVxLlH2ailKjN9bxfosi3C-FR8mjA

Due to kernel readahead, we usually get multiple read requests
at the same time. These get submitted to the backing storage in
random order, which is a problem if seeking is very expensive.
Details: https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/issues/92
...if doWrite() can do it for us. This avoids the situation
that the file only consists of a file header when calling
doWrite.
A later patch will check for this condition and warn about it,
as with this change it should no longer occour in normal operation.
...but keep it disabled by default for new filesystems.
We are still missing an example filesystem and CLI arguments
to explicitely enable and disable it.
There are two independent backends, one for name encryption,
the other one, AEAD, for file content.
"BackendTypeEnum" only applies to AEAD (file content), so make that
clear in the name.
Version 1.1 of the EME package (github.com/rfjakob/eme) added
a more convenient interface. Use it.
Note that you have to upgrade your EME package (go get -u)!
Preallocation is very slow on hdds that run btrfs. Give the
user the option to disable it. This greatly speeds up small file
operations but reduces the robustness against out-of-space errors.
Also add the option to the man page.

Stat() calls are expensive on NFS as they need a full network
round-trip. We detect when a write immediately follows the
last one and skip the Stat in this case because the write
cannot create a file hole.
On my (slow) NAS, this takes the write speed from 24MB/s to
41MB/s.
Test that we get the right timestamp when extracting a tarball.
Also simplify the workaround in doTestUtimesNano() and fix the
fact that it was running no test at all.
This can happen during normal operation when the directory has
been deleted concurrently. But it can also mean that the
gocryptfs.diriv is missing due to an error, so log the event
at "info" level.
Commit af5441dcd9 has caused a
regression ( https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/issues/35 )
that is fixed by this commit.
The go-fuse library by now has all the syscall wrappers in
place to correctly handle Utimens, also for symlinks.
Instead of duplicating the effort here just call into go-fuse.
Closes#35
This fixes a build problem on 32-bit hosts:
internal/fusefrontend/file.go:400: cannot use a.Unix() (type int64) as
type int32 in assignment
internal/fusefrontend/file.go:406: cannot use m.Unix() (type int64) as
type int32 in assignment
It also enables full nanosecond timestamps for dates
after 1970.
...and convert all calls to syscall.{Fallocate,Openat}
to syscallcompat .
Both syscalls are not available on OSX. We emulate Openat and just
return EOPNOTSUPP for Fallocate.
unPad16 returns detailed errors including the position of the
incorrect bytes. Kill a possible padding oracle by lumping
everything into a generic error.
The detailed error is only logged if debug is active.
We were growing the file block-by-block which was pretty
inefficient. We now coalesce all the grows into a single
Ftruncate. Also simplifies the code!
Simplistic benchmark: Before:
$ time truncate -s 1000M foo
real 0m0.568s
After:
$ time truncate -s 1000M foo
real 0m0.205s
