tuntap: fix ambigious multiqueue API
The current multiqueue API is ambigious which may confuse both user and LSM to
do things correctly:
- Both TUNSETIFF and TUNSETQUEUE could be used to create the queues of a tuntap
device.
- TUNSETQUEUE were used to disable and enable a specific queue of the
device. But since the state of tuntap were completely removed from the queue,
it could be used to attach to another device (there's no such kind of
requirement currently, and it needs new kind of LSM policy.
- TUNSETQUEUE could be used to attach to a persistent device without any
queues. This kind of attching bypass the necessary checking during TUNSETIFF
and may lead unexpected result.
So this patch tries to make a cleaner and simpler API by:
- Only allow TUNSETIFF to create queues.
- TUNSETQUEUE could be only used to disable and enabled the queues of a device,
and the state of the tuntap device were not detachd from the queues when it
was disabled, so TUNSETQUEUE could be only used after TUNSETIFF and with the
same device.
This is done by introducing a list which keeps track of all queues which were
disabled. The queue would be moved between this list and tfiles[] array when it
was enabled/disabled. A pointer of the tun_struct were also introdued to track
the device it belongs to when it was disabled.
After the change, the isolation between management and application could be done
through: TUNSETIFF were only called by management software and TUNSETQUEUE were
only called by application.For LSM/SELinux, the things left is to do proper
check during tun_set_queue() if needed.
