To mitigate some types of offline attacks, filesystem encryption is designed to enforce that all files in an encrypted directory tree use the same encryption policy (i.e. the same encryption context excluding the nonce). However, the fscrypt_has_permitted_context() function which enforces this relies on comparing struct fscrypt_info's, which are only available when we have the encryption keys. This can cause two incorrect behaviors: 1. If we have the parent directory's key but not the child's key, or vice versa, then fscrypt_has_permitted_context() returned false, causing applications to see EPERM or ENOKEY. This is incorrect if the encryption contexts are in fact consistent. Although we'd normally have either both keys or neither key in that case since the master_key_descriptors would be the same, this is not guaranteed because keys can be added or removed from keyrings at any time. 2. If we have neither the parent's key nor the child's key, then fscrypt_has_permitted_context() returned true, causing applications to see no error (or else an error for some other reason). This is incorrect if the encryption contexts are in fact inconsistent, since in that case we should deny access. To fix this, retrieve and compare the fscrypt_contexts if we are unable to set up both fscrypt_infos. While this slightly hurts performance when accessing an encrypted directory tree without the key, this isn't a case we really need to be optimizing for; access *with* the key is much more important. Furthermore, the performance hit is barely noticeable given that we are already retrieving the fscrypt_context and doing two keyring searches in fscrypt_get_encryption_info(). If we ever actually wanted to optimize this case we might start by caching the fscrypt_contexts.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
