* test: Use paths in __STATEDIR__ instead of 'temp' and 'tempdir' directivesDavid Gibson2022-09-1315-82/+69
| | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of using the 'temp' and 'tempdir' DSL directives to create temporary files, use fixed paths relative to __STATEDIR__. This has two advantages: 1) The files are automatically cleaned up if the tests fail (and even if that doesn't work they're easier to clean up manuall) 2) When debugging tests it's easier to figure out which of the temporary files are relevant to whatever's going wrong Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

* test: Move context temporary files to state dirDavid Gibson2022-09-131-29/+32
| | | | | | | | | Currently the context command dispatch subsystem creates a bunch of temporary files in $LOGDIR, which is messy. Store them in $STATEDIR which is for precisely this purpose. The logs from each context still go into $LOGDIR. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

* test: Create common state directories for temporary filesDavid Gibson2022-09-134-1/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The test scripts create a bunch of temporary files to keep track of internal state. Some are made in /tmp with individual mktemp calls, some go in the passt source directory, and some go in $LOGDIR. This can sometimes make it messy to clean up after failed test runs. Start cleaning this up by creating a single "state" directory ($STATEBASE) in /tmp for all the state or temporary files used by a single test run. Clean it up automatically in cleanup() - except when DEBUG==1, because those files can be useful for debugging test script failures. We create subdirectories under $STATEBASE for each setup function, exposed as $STATESETUP. We also create subdirectories for each test script and expose those to the scripts as __STATEDIR__.

* test: Actually run cleanup functionDavid Gibson2022-09-131-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | We install a cleanup() function with 'trap' in order to clean up temporary files we generate during the tests. However, we deinstall it after run_term, which means it won't run in most of the cases where it would be useful. Even if "run from_term" exits with an error, that error will be hidden from the run_term wrapper because it's within a tmux session, so we will return from run_term normally, uninstall the trap and never clean up. In fact there's no reason to uninstall the trap at all, it works just as well on the success exit path as an error exit path. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

* test: Use context system for guest commandsDavid Gibson2022-09-1310-16/+90
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Extends the context system in the test scripts to allow executing commands within a guest. Do this without requiring an existing network in the guest by using socat to run ssh via a vsock connection. We do need some additional "sleep"s in the tests, because the new faster dispatch means that sometimes we attempt to connect before socat has managed to listen. For now, only use this for the plain "passt" tests. The "passt_in_ns" and other tests have additional complications we still need to deal with.

* test: Add nsholder utilityDavid Gibson2022-09-133-1/+147
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In our test scripts we need to do some ugly parsing of /proc and/or pstree output in order to get the PIDs of processes running in namespaces so that we can connect to those namespaces with nsenter or pasta. This is actually a pretty tricky problem with standard tools. To determine the PID from the outside of the namespace we need to know how the process of interest is related to the unshare or pasta process (child? one of several children? grandchild?) as well as then parsing /proc or ps output. This is slightly awkward now, and will get worse with future changes I'd like to make to have processes are dispatched. The obvious solution would be to have the process of interest (which we control) report its own PID, but that doesn't work easily, because it is in a PID namepace and sees only its local PID not the global PID we need to address it from outside. To handle this, add a small custom tool, "nsholder". This takes a path and a mode parameter. In "hold" mode it will create a unix domain socket bound to the path and listening. In "pid" mode it will get the "hold"ing process's pid via the unix socket using SO_PEERCRED, which translates between PID namespaces. In "stop" mode it will send a message to the socket causing the "hold"ing process to clean up and exit. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
* test: Use new-style contexts for passt pane in the pasta and passt testsDavid Gibson2022-09-133-19/+12
| | | | | | | | | | Convert the pasta and passt tests to use new-style context execution for the things that run in the "passt" frame. Don't touch the passt_in_ns or two_guests tests yet, because they run passt inside a namespace which introduces some additional complications we have yet to handle.

| | | | | | | | | Convert most of the tests to use the new-style system for issuing commands for all host commands.

* test: Integration of old-style pane execution and new context executionDavid Gibson2022-09-133-81/+121
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We're creating a system for tests to more reliably execute commands in various contexts (e.g. host, guest, namespace). That transition is going to happen over a number of steps though, so in the meantime we need to deal with both the old-style issuing of commands via typing into and screen scraping tmux panels, and the new-style system for executing commands in context. Introduce some transitional helpers which will issue a command via context if the requested context is initialized, but will otherwise fall back to the old style tmux panel based method. Re-implement the various test DSL commands in terms of these new helpers. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
* test: Allow a tmux pane to watch commands executed in contextsDavid Gibson2022-09-131-0/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We're moving to a new way of the tests dispatching commands to running in contexts (host, guest, namespace, etc.). As we make this transition, though, we still want the user to be able to watch the commands running in a context, as they previously could from the commands issued in the pane. Add a helper to set up a pane to watch a context's log to allow this. In some cases we currently issue commands from several different logical contexts in the same pane, so allow a pane to watch several contexts at once. Also use tail's --retry option to allow starting the watch before we've initialized the context which will be useful in some cases. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
* test: Context execution helpersDavid Gibson2022-09-131-0/+80
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For the tests, we need to run commands in various contexts: in the host, in a guest or in a namespace. Currently we do this by running each context in a tmux pane, and using tmux commands to type the commands into the relevant pane, then screen-scrape the output for the results if we need them. This is very fragile, because we have to make various assumptions to parse the output. Those can break if a shell doesn't have the prompt we expect, if the tmux pane is too small or in various other conditions. This starts some library functions for a new "context" system, that provides a common way to invoke commands in a given context, in a way that properly preserves stdout, stderr and the process return code.

* test: Correctly match "background" with "wait" commandsDavid Gibson2022-09-134-8/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | Our test DSL has a number of paired commands to run something in the background in a pane, then later to wait for it to complete. However, in some of the tests we have these mismatched - starting a command in one pane, then waiting for it in another. We appear to get away with this for some reason, but it's not correct and future changes make it cause more problems. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
* Allow --userns when pasta spawns a commandDavid Gibson2022-09-132-7/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | Currently --userns is only allowed when pasta is attaching to an existing netns or PID, and is prohibited when creating a new netns by spawning a command or shell. With the new handling of userns, this check isn't neccessary. I'm not sure if there's any use case for --userns with a spawned command, but it's strictly more flexible and requires zero extra code, so we might as well.

* Handle userns isolation and dropping root at the same timeDavid Gibson2022-09-138-83/+77
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | passt/pasta can interact with user namespaces in a number of ways: 1) With --netns-only we'll remain in our original user namespace 2) With --userns or a PID option to pasta we'll join either the given user namespace or that of the PID 3) When pasta spawns a shell or command we'll start a new user namespace for the command and then join it 4) With passt we'll create a new user namespace when we sandbox() ourself However (3) and (4) turn out to have essentially the same effect. In both cases we create one new user namespace. The spawned command starts there, and passt/pasta itself will live there from sandbox() onwards. Because of this, we can simplify user namespace handling by moving the userns handling earlier, to the same point we drop root in the original namespace. Extend the drop_user() function to isolate_user() which does both. After switching UID and GID in the original userns, isolate_user() will either join or create the userns we require. When we spawn a command with pasta_start_ns()/pasta_setup_ns() we no longer need to create a userns, because we're already made one. sandbox() likewise no longer needs to create (or join) an userns because we're already in the one we need. We no longer need c->pasta_userns_fd, since the fd is only used locally in isolate_user(). Likewise we can replace c->netns_only with a local in conf(), since it's not used outside there.

* Correctly handle --netns-only in pasta_start_ns()David Gibson2022-09-131-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | --netns-only is supposed to make pasta use only a network namespace, not a user namespace. However, pasta_start_ns() has this backwards, and if --netns-only is specified it creates a user namespace but *not* a network namespace. Correct this.

* Clean up and rename conf_ns_open()David Gibson2022-09-133-71/+68
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | conf_ns_open() opens file descriptors for the namespaces pasta needs, but it doesnt really have anything to do with configuration any more. For better clarity, move it to pasta.c and rename it pasta_open_ns(). This makes the symmetry between it and pasta_start_ns() more clear, since these represent the two basic ways that pasta can operate, either attaching to an existing namespace/process or spawning a new one. Since its no longer validating options, the errors it could return shouldn't cause a usage message. Just exit directly with an error instead. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
* Consolidate validation of pasta namespace optionsDavid Gibson2022-09-131-41/+42
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are a number of different ways to specify namespaces for pasta to use. Some combinations are valid and some are not. Currently validation for these is spread across several places: conf_ns_pid() validates PID options specifically. Near its callsite in conf() several other checks are made. Some additional checks are made in conf_ns_open() and finally theres a check just before the call to pasta_start_ns(). This is quite hard to follow. Make it easier by putting all the validation logic together in a new conf_pasta_ns() function, which subsumes conf_ns_pid(). This reveals that some of the checks were redundant with each other, so remove those. For good measure, rename conf_netns() to conf_netns_opt() to make it clearer its handling just the --netns option specifically, not overall configuration of the netns.

* Move self-isolation code into a separate fileDavid Gibson2022-09-138-169/+189

* Safer handling if we can't open /proc/self/uid_mapDavid Gibson2022-09-131-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | passt is allowed to run as "root" (UID 0) in a user namespace, but notas real root in the init namespace. We read /proc/self/uid_map to determine if we're in the init namespace or not. If we're unable to open /proc/self/uid_map we assume we're ok and continue running as UID 0. This seems unwise. The only instances I can think of where uid_map won't be available are if the host kernel doesn't support namespaces, or /proc is not mounted. In neither case is it safe to assume we're "not really" root and continue (although in practice we'd likely fail for other reasons pretty soon anyway). Therefore, fail with an error in this case, instead of carrying on. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
* Consolidate determination of UID/GID to run asDavid Gibson2022-09-133-59/+73
| | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the logic to work out what UID and GID we will run as is spread across conf(). If --runas is specified it's handled in conf_runas(), otherwise it's handled by check_root(), which depends on initialization of the uid and gid variables by either conf() itself or conf_runas(). Make this clearer by putting all the UID and GID logic into a single conf_ugid() function. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
* Split checking for root from dropping root privilegeDavid Gibson2022-09-134-7/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | check_root() both checks to see if we are root (in the init namespace), and if we are drops to an unprivileged user. To make future cleanups simpler, split the checking for root (now in check_root()) from the actual dropping of privilege (now in drop_root()). Note that this does slightly alter semantics. Previously we would only setuid() if we were originally root (in the init namespace). Now we will always setuid() and setgid(), though it won't actually change anything if we weren't privileged to begin with. This also means that we will now always attempt to switch to the user specified with --runas, even if we aren't (init namespace) root to begin with. Obviously this will fail with an error if we weren't privileged to start with. --help and the man page are updated accordingly. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

* test: Combine iperf3c and iperf3s into a single DSL commandDavid Gibson2022-09-075-197/+122
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These two commands in the DSL to run an iperf client and server are always used together, and some of the parameters must match between them. The iperf3s must also be run more or less immediately after iperf3c, since iperf3c will run a client in the background after a sleep and requires a server to be running before it will work. A bunch of things can be made cleaner if we make a single DSL command that runs both sides of the test. For now make the combined command work exactly like the two commands together did, warts and all. This does lose the ability for the DSL scripts to give additional options to the iperf3 server, but we weren't using that anyway. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

* More deterministic detection of whether argument is a PID, PATH or NAMEDavid Gibson2022-08-301-82/+90
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pasta takes as its only non-option argument either a PID to attach to the namespaces of, a PATH to a network namespace or a NAME of a network namespace (relative to /run/netns). Currently to determine which it is we try all 3 in that order, and if anything goes wrong we move onto the next. This has the potential to cause very confusing failure modes. e.g. if the argument is intended to be a network namespace name, but a (non-namespace) file of the same name exists in the current directory. Make behaviour more predictable by choosing how to treat the argument based only on the argument's contents, not anything else on the system: - If it's a decimal integer treat it as a PID - Otherwise, if it has no '/' characters, treat it as a netns name (ip-netns doesn't allow '/' in netns names) - Otherwise, treat it as a netns path If you want to open a persistent netns in the current directory, you can use './netns'. This also allows us to split the parsing of the PID|PATH|NAME option from the actual opening of the namespaces. In turn that allows us to put the opening of existing namespaces next to the opening of new namespaces in pasta_start_ns. That makes the logical flow easier to follow and will enable later cleanups. Caveats: - The separation of functions mean we will always generate the basename and dirname for the netns_quit system, even when using PID namespaces. This is pointless, since the netns_quit system doesn't work for non persistent namespaces, but is harmless. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

* Remove --nsrun-dir optionDavid Gibson2022-08-302-26/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | pasta can identify a netns as a "name", which is to say a path relative to (usually) /run/netns, which is the place that ip(8) creates persistent network namespaces. Alternatively a full path to a netns can be given. The --nsrun-dir option allows the user to change the standard path where netns names are resolved. However, there's no real point to this, if the user wants to override the location of the netns, they can just as easily use the full path to specify the netns.

* Correct manpage for --usernsDavid Gibson2022-08-301-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | The man page states that the --userns option can be given either as a path or as a name relative to --nsrun-dir. This is not correct: as the name suggests --nsrun-dir is (correctly) used only for *netns* resolution, not *userns* resolution. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
* conf: Use "-D none" and "-S none" instead of missing empty option argumentsDavid Gibson2022-08-302-27/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Both the -D (--dns) and -S (--search) options take an optional argument. If the argument is omitted the option is disabled entirely. However, handling the optional argument requires some ugly special case handling if it's the last option on the command line, and has potential ambiguity with non-option arguments used with pasta. It can also make it more confusing to read command lines. Simplify the logic here by replacing the non-argument versions with an explicit "-D none" or "-S none".

* conf: Make the argument to --pcap option mandatoryDavid Gibson2022-08-303-53/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | The --pcap or -p option can be used with or without an argument. If given, the argument gives the name of the file to save a packet trace to. If omitted, we generate a default name in /tmp. Generating the default name isn't particularly useful though, since making a suitable name can easily be done by the caller. Remove this feature.
