fix namespaced fscaps when !CONFIG_SECURITY
Namespaced file capabilities were introduced in 8db6c34f1dbc .
When userspace reads an xattr for a namespaced capability, a
virtualized representation of it is returned if the caller is
in a user namespace owned by the capability's owning rootid.
The function which performs this virtualization was not hooked
up if CONFIG_SECURITY=n. Therefore in that case the original
xattr was shown instead of the virtualized one.
To test this using libcap-bin (*1),
$ v=$(mktemp)
$ unshare -Ur setcap cap_sys_admin-eip $v
$ unshare -Ur setcap -v cap_sys_admin-eip $v
/tmp/tmp.lSiIFRvt8Y: OK
"setcap -v" verifies the values instead of setting them, and
will check whether the rootid value is set. Therefore, with
this bug un-fixed, and with CONFIG_SECURITY=n, setcap -v will
fail:
$ v=$(mktemp)
$ unshare -Ur setcap cap_sys_admin=eip $v
$ unshare -Ur setcap -v cap_sys_admin=eip $v
nsowner[got=1000, want=0],/tmp/tmp.HHDiOOl9fY differs in []
Fix this bug by calling cap_inode_getsecurity() in
security_inode_getsecurity() instead of returning
-EOPNOTSUPP, when CONFIG_SECURITY=n.
*1 - note, if libcap is too old for getcap to have the '-n'
option, then use verify-caps instead.
