lo_setattr() invokes fchmod() in a rarely used code path, so it should
be whitelisted or virtiofsd will crash with EBADSYS.
Said code path can be triggered for example as follows:
On the host, in the shared directory, create a file with the sticky bit
set and a security.capability xattr:
(1) # touch foo
(2) # chmod u+s foo
(3) # setcap '' foo
Then in the guest let some process truncate that file after it has
dropped all of its capabilities (at least CAP_FSETID):
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
capng_setpid(getpid());
capng_clear(CAPNG_SELECT_BOTH);
capng_updatev(CAPNG_ADD, CAPNG_PERMITTED | CAPNG_EFFECTIVE, 0);
capng_apply(CAPNG_SELECT_BOTH);
ftruncate(open(argv[1], O_RDWR), 0);
}
This will cause the guest kernel to drop the sticky bit (i.e. perform a
mode change) as part of the truncate (where FATTR_FH is set), and that
will cause virtiofsd to invoke fchmod() instead of fchmodat().
(A similar configuration exists further below with futimens() vs.
utimensat(), but the former is not a syscall but just a wrapper for the
latter, so no further whitelisting is required.)

Current virtiofsd has problems about xattr operations and
they does not work properly for directory/symlink/special file.
The fundamental cause is that virtiofsd uses openat() + f...xattr()
systemcalls for xattr operation but we should not open symlink/special
file in the daemon. Therefore the function is restricted.
Fix this problem by:
1. during setup of each thread, call unshare(CLONE_FS)
2. in xattr operations (i.e. lo_getxattr), if inode is not a regular
file or directory, use fchdir(proc_loot_fd) + ...xattr() +
fchdir(root.fd) instead of openat() + f...xattr()
(Note: for a regular file/directory openat() + f...xattr()
is still used for performance reason)
With this patch, xfstests generic/062 passes on virtiofs.
This fix is suggested by Miklos Szeredi and Stefan Hajnoczi.

Sometimes collecting output from stderr is inconvenient or does not fit
within the overall logging architecture. Add syslog(3) support for
cases where stderr cannot be used.

Only allow system calls that are needed by virtiofsd. All other system
calls cause SIGSYS to be directed at the thread and the process will
coredump.
Restricting system calls reduces the kernel attack surface and limits
what the process can do when compromised.
