* Invoke specific qemu-system-* binariesDavid Gibson2022-07-146-31/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A lot of tests and examples invoke qemu with the command "kvm". However, as far as I can tell, "kvm" being aliased to the appropriate qemu system binary is Debian specific. The binary names from qemu upstream - qemu-system-$ARCH - also aren't universal, but they are more common (they should be good for both Debian and Fedora at least). In order to still get KVM acceleration when available, we use the option "-M accel=kvm:tcg" to tell qemu to try using either KVM or TCG in that order A number of the places we invoked "kvm" are expecting specifically an x86 guest, and so it's also safer to explicitly invoke qemu-system-x86_64. Some others appear to be independent of the target arch (just wanting the same arch as the host to allow KVM acceleration). Although I suspect there may be more subtle x86 specific options in the qemu command lines, attempt to preserve arch independence by using $(uname -m).

* tests: qemu-system-ppc64le isn't a thingDavid Gibson2022-07-142-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | Several tests run pp64le guests using "qemu-system-ppc64le". But, at the system level there's no difference between ppc64 and ppc64le - it's the same hardware, just placed into different endian modes by OS early boot code. Reflecting that, qemu only supplies a single "qemu-system-ppc64". Some distros alias qemu-system-ppc64le to qemu-system-ppc64 (Debian does), but it's best not to count on this (Fedora doesn't, for example). Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
* test: Embed script for dhclient(8) in mbuto(1) profileStefano Brivio2022-07-144-10/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | David reports that dhclient-script(8) on Fedora needs a number of binaries that are not included in PROGS of the current mbuto profile, and we would also need to include hostnamectl(1) there, which will fail without a systemd init. Embed a minimal script for dhclient(8) in the profile itself, written to /sbin/dhclient-script at boot, to just check what we need to check out of DHCP and DHCPv6 functionality. While at it, drop busybox and logger from PROGS, as we don't need them, and add hostname(1). While DHCP option 12 isn't supported yet by the DHCP implementation in passt, we should probably add it soon. Note: owing to the simplicity of this script, we now need to bring up the interface before starting dhclient: add this in test scripts where it's not the case yet.

There are several more places that list all the manpage files, introduce a $(MANPAGES) variable to remove that repetition as well.

* tests: Use nmap-ncat instead of openbsd netcat for pasta testsDavid Gibson2022-06-184-47/+48
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A number of the testcases use options specific the OpenBSD version of netcat. That's available in Debian, but not easily available in Fedora. Switch the pasta tests to using the nmap version of netcat (a.k.a. ncat). This is easily available in both Debian and Fedora, and appears to be a bit more modern and maintained as well. ncat generally requires explicit listen addresses (which is good for clarity anywhere). Its default options appear to remove the need for the -N and -q options.

* Use dhclient instead of udhcpcDavid Gibson2022-06-153-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | For some reason, the passt/pasta tests and examples use dhclient for DHCPv6, but in most cases use udhcpc for DHCPv4. Change it to use dhclient for both DHCPv4 and DHCPv6. This means one less tool we need for testing, plus dhclient is easily available on Fedora whereas udhcpc is not. Note that the passt tests still rely on udhcpc indirectly because mbuto wants to put it into the guest images it generates. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
* Tweak dhclient arguments for readabilityDavid Gibson2022-06-159-15/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | A number of tests and examples use dhclient in both IPv4 and IPv6 modes. We use "dhclient -6" for IPv6, but usually just "dhclient" for IPv4. Add an explicit "-4" argument to make it more clear and explicit. In addition, when dhclient is run from within pasta it usually won't be "real" root, and so will not have access to write the default global pid file. This results in a mostly harmless but irritating error: Can't create /var/run/dhclient.pid: Permission denied We can avoid that by using the --no-pid flag to dhclient.

* Don't abbreviate ip(8) arguments in examples and testsDavid Gibson2022-06-1520-109/+109

* tests: Use more explicit netcat options for distro/fedora testsDavid Gibson2022-06-151-7/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | distro/fedora contains two versions of the basic tests, used for different Fedora versions. One uses explicit listening address for netcat in some extra places, the other does not. Apparently the older netcat versions didn't require the explicit addresses. Not supplying addresses doesn't test anything useful though, just a detail in netcat's behaviour. So, it's cleaner to just always supply explicit addresses. In addition, we're explicitly expecting the nmap version of ncat, also known as "ncat". So, it's more explicit what we're after if we invoke it via that name rather than "nc", which will go via an /etc/alternatives link.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we use pane_wait to wait for a command issued to a tmux pane to finish we have no idea whether the command succeeded or not. This means that the test scripts can keep running long after the point something vital has failed, making it difficult to work out what went wrong. Add a new pane_status command that checks for success of the issued command and use it in most places instead of pane_wait. We still need explicit pane_wait where we're gathering explicit output with pane_parse, because the way we check the status with 'echo $?' means we lose track of that output.

* tests: Don't ignore errors during scriptDavid Gibson2022-05-192-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Most commands issued during the testing scripts aren't explicitly checked for errors. Therefore, if they fail, the shell will just keep on executing. This makes it difficult to figure out where things started going wrong if things fall over. Run the whole script with the set -e mode so that it will exit in the case of any (unchecked) failing command. To make this work we do need to add explicit checks / fallbacks for some commands which we expect to fail.

* tests: Improve control character filtering in pane_parseDavid Gibson2022-05-191-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pane_parse() attempts to grab the output from the last command issued into a tmux pane. It strips out control characters using tr, which in particular includes the final \r\n. However, this won't fully strip out terminal escape sequences. In particular this breaks if the shell in the pane is bash, with enable-bracketed-paste enabled in readline. That issues terminal sequences to enable and disable bracketed paste mode around every shell prompt. We can work around this because these escapes are followed by a \r (CR). More generally, it seems reasonable to assume that any terminal shenanigans followed by a CR, but not an LF is supposed to be hidden. So, use sed to strip everything before the second last CR. We still need the tr to remove the final \r\n from the string (sed processes a line at a time, and doesn't consider the CRLF part of the buffer it's processing).

* tests: Don't globally set tmux default-shellDavid Gibson2022-05-191-6/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | run_term() uses tmux set-option -g to globally set the default shell. Unfortunately this hits a chicken-and-egg problem that's common with many of tmux's session options. If there isn't already a tmux server running, we can't connect to set the option. If we attempt this after starting our session (and therefore the server), then the session will already be started with the previous default shell. In any case it's not a good idea to set tmux global options, since that might interfere with whatever else the user is doing in tmux. So, instead set the default-shell option locally to the session after starting it. To make sure we get the right shell for our initial script, explicitly invoke /bin/sh to interpret it.

* tests: Don't use tmux update-environmentDavid Gibson2022-05-191-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The semantics of tmux's update-environment option are a bit confusing. It says it means the given variables are copied into the session environment from the source environment, but it's not entirely clear what the "source" environment means. From my experimentation it appeast to be the environment from which the tmux *server* is launched, not the one issuing the 'new-session' command. That makes it pretty much useles, certainly in our case where we have no way of knowing if the user has pre-existing tmux sessions. Instead use the new-session -e option to explicitly pass in the variables we want to propagate. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

* passt, pasta: Namespace-based sandboxing, defer seccomp policy applicationStefano Brivio2022-02-213-15/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To reach (at least) a conceptually equivalent security level as implemented by --enable-sandbox in slirp4netns, we need to create a new mount namespace and pivot_root() into a new (empty) mountpoint, so that passt and pasta can't access any filesystem resource after initialisation. While at it, also detach IPC, PID (only for passt, to prevent vulnerabilities based on the knowledge of a target PID), and UTS namespaces. With this approach, if we apply the seccomp filters right after the configuration step, the number of allowed syscalls grows further. To prevent this, defer the application of seccomp policies after the initialisation phase, before the main loop, that's where we expect bad things to happen, potentially. This way, we get back to 22 allowed syscalls for passt and 34 for pasta, on x86_64. While at it, move #syscalls notes to specific code paths wherever it conceptually makes sense. We have to open all the file handles we'll ever need before sandboxing: - the packet capture file can only be opened once, drop instance numbers from the default path and use the (pre-sandbox) PID instead - /proc/net/tcp{,v6} and /proc/net/udp{,v6}, for automatic detection of bound ports in pasta mode, are now opened only once, before sandboxing, and their handles are stored in the execution context - the UNIX domain socket for passt is also bound only once, before sandboxing: to reject clients after the first one, instead of closing the listening socket, keep it open, accept and immediately discard new connection if we already have a valid one Clarify the (unchanged) behaviour for --netns-only in the man page. To actually make passt and pasta processes run in a separate PID namespace, we need to unshare(CLONE_NEWPID) before forking to background (if configured to do so). Introduce a small daemon() implementation, __daemon(), that additionally saves the PID file before forking. While running in foreground, the process itself can't move to a new PID namespace (a process can't change the notion of its own PID): mention that in the man page. For some reason, fork() in a detached PID namespace causes SIGTERM and SIGQUIT to be ignored, even if the handler is still reported as SIG_DFL: add a signal handler that just exits. We can now drop most of the pasta_child_handler() implementation, that took care of terminating all processes running in the same namespace, if pasta started a shell: the shell itself is now the init process in that namespace, and all children will terminate once the init process exits. Issuing 'echo $$' in a detached PID namespace won't return the actual namespace PID as seen from the init namespace: adapt demo and test setup scripts to reflect that.
