[PATCH] qemu_namespace: Deal with nested mounts when umount()-ing /dev
In one of recent commits (v9.0.0-rc1~106) I've made our QEMU
namespace code umount the original /dev. One of the reasons was
enhanced security, because previously we just mounted a tmpfs
over the original /dev. Thus a malicious QEMU could just
umount("/dev") and it would get to the original /dev with all
nodes.
Now, on some systems this introduced a regression:
failed to umount devfs on /dev: Device or resource busy
But how this could be? We've moved all file systems mounted under
/dev to a temporary location. Or have we? As it turns out, not
quite. If there are two file systems mounted on the same target,
e.g. like this:
mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /dev/shm/ && mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /dev/shm/
then only the top most (i.e. the last one) is moved. See
qemuDomainUnshareNamespace() for more info.
Now, we could enhance our code to deal with these "doubled" mount
points. Or, since it is the top most file system that is
accessible anyways (and this one is preserved), we can
umount("/dev") in a recursive fashion.
