QEMU's local 9pfs server passes through O_NOATIME from the client. If
the QEMU process doesn't have permissions to use O_NOATIME (namely, it
does not own the file nor have the CAP_FOWNER capability), the open will
fail. This causes issues when from the client's point of view, it
believes it has permissions to use O_NOATIME (e.g., a process running as
root in the virtual machine). Additionally, overlayfs on Linux opens
files on the lower layer using O_NOATIME, so in this case a 9pfs mount
can't be used as a lower layer for overlayfs (cf.
https://github.com/osandov/drgn/blob/dabfe1971951701da13863dbe6d8a1d172ad9650/vmtest/onoatimehack.c
and https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/54509).
Luckily, O_NOATIME is effectively a hint, and is often ignored by, e.g.,
network filesystems. open(2) notes that O_NOATIME "may not be effective
on all filesystems. One example is NFS, where the server maintains the
access time." This means that we can honor it when possible but fall
back to ignoring it.

These functions will need custom implementations on Darwin. Since the
implementation is very similar among all of them, and 9p-util already
has the _nofollow version of fgetxattrat, let's move them all there.

This function has to ensure it doesn't follow a symlink that could be used
to escape the virtfs directory. This could be easily achieved if fchmodat()
on linux honored the AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW flag as described in POSIX, but
it doesn't. There was a tentative to implement a new fchmodat2() syscall
with the correct semantics:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9596301/
but it didn't gain much momentum. Also it was suggested to look at an O_PATH
based solution in the first place.
The current implementation covers most use-cases, but it notably fails if:
- the target path has access rights equal to 0000 (openat() returns EPERM),
=> once you've done chmod(0000) on a file, you can never chmod() again
- the target path is UNIX domain socket (openat() returns ENXIO)
=> bind() of UNIX domain sockets fails if the file is on 9pfs
The solution is to use O_PATH: openat() now succeeds in both cases, and we
can ensure the path isn't a symlink with fstat(). The associated entry in
"/proc/self/fd" can hence be safely passed to the regular chmod() syscall.
The previous behavior is kept for older systems that don't have O_PATH.

The logic to open a path currently sits between local_open_nofollow() and
the relative_openat_nofollow() helper, which has no other user.
For the sake of clarity, this patch moves all the code of the helper into
its unique caller. While here we also:
- drop the code to skip leading "/" because the backend isn't supposed to
pass anything but relative paths without consecutive slashes. The assert()
is kept because we really don't want a buggy backend to pass an absolute
path to openat().
- use strchrnul() to get a simpler code. This is ok since virtfs is for
linux+glibc hosts only.
- don't dup() the initial directory and add an assert() to ensure we don't
return the global mountfd to the caller. BTW, this would mean that the
caller passed an empty path, which isn't supposed to happen either.

We should pass O_NOFOLLOW otherwise openat() will follow symlinks and make
QEMU vulnerable.
While here, we also fix local_unlinkat_common() to use openat_dir() for
the same reasons (it was a leftover in the original patchset actually).
This fixes CVE-2016-9602.

When O_PATH is used with O_DIRECTORY, it only acts as an optimization: the
openat() syscall simply finds the name in the VFS, and doesn't trigger the
underlying filesystem.
On systems that don't define O_PATH, because they have glibc version 2.13
or older for example, we can safely omit it. We don't want to deactivate
O_PATH globally though, in case it is used without O_DIRECTORY. The is done
with a dedicated macro.
Systems without O_PATH may thus fail to resolve names that involve
unreadable directories, compared to newer systems succeeding, but such
corner case failure is our only option on those older systems to avoid
the security hole of chasing symlinks inappropriately.

The local_lsetxattr() callback is vulnerable to symlink attacks because
it calls lsetxattr() which follows symbolic links in all path elements but
the rightmost one.
This patch introduces a helper to emulate the non-existing fsetxattrat()
function: it is implemented with /proc/self/fd which provides a trusted
path that can be safely passed to lsetxattr().
local_lsetxattr() is converted to use this helper and opendir_nofollow().
This partly fixes CVE-2016-9602.

When using the passthrough security mode, symbolic links created by the
guest are actual symbolic links on the host file system.
Since the resolution of symbolic links during path walk is supposed to
occur on the client side. The server should hence never receive any path
pointing to an actual symbolic link. This isn't guaranteed by the protocol
though, and malicious code in the guest can trick the server to issue
various syscalls on paths whose one or more elements are symbolic links.
In the case of the "local" backend using the "passthrough" or "none"
security modes, the guest can directly create symbolic links to arbitrary
locations on the host (as per spec). The "mapped-xattr" and "mapped-file"
security modes are also affected to a lesser extent as they require some
help from an external entity to create actual symbolic links on the host,
i.e. another guest using "passthrough" mode for example.
The current code hence relies on O_NOFOLLOW and "l*()" variants of system
calls. Unfortunately, this only applies to the rightmost path component.
A guest could maliciously replace any component in a trusted path with a
symbolic link. This could allow any guest to escape a virtfs shared folder.
This patch introduces a variant of the openat() syscall that successively
opens each path element with O_NOFOLLOW. When passing a file descriptor
pointing to a trusted directory, one is guaranteed to be returned a
file descriptor pointing to a path which is beneath the trusted directory.
This will be used by subsequent patches to implement symlink-safe path walk
for any access to the backend.
Symbolic links aren't the only threats actually: a malicious guest could
change a path element to point to other types of file with undesirable
effects:
- a named pipe or any other thing that would cause openat() to block
- a terminal device which would become QEMU's controlling terminal
These issues can be addressed with O_NONBLOCK and O_NOCTTY.
Two helpers are introduced: one to open intermediate path elements and one
to open the rightmost path element.
