2009-06-11fsnotify: allow groups to set freeing_mark to nullEric Paris
Most fsnotify listeners (all but inotify) do not care about marks being freed. Allow groups to set freeing_mark to null and do not call any function if it is set that way. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
2009-06-11inotify/dnotify: should_send_event shouldn't match on FS_EVENT_ON_CHILDEric Paris
inotify and dnotify will both indicate that they want any event which came from a child inode. The fix is to mask off FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD when deciding if inotify or dnotify is interested in a given event. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
2009-06-11dnotify: do not bother to lock entry->lock when reading maskEric Paris
entry->lock is needed to make sure entry->mask does not change while manipulating it. In dnotify_should_send_event() we don't care if we get an old or a new mask value out of this entry so there is no point it taking the lock. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
2009-06-11dnotify: do not use ?true:false when assigning to a boolEric Paris
dnotify_should send event assigned a bool using ?true:false when computing a bit operation. This is poitless and the bool type does this for us. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
2009-06-11inotify: reimplement inotify using fsnotifyEric Paris
Reimplement inotify_user using fsnotify. This should be feature for feature exactly the same as the original inotify_user. This does not make any changes to the in kernel inotify feature used by audit. Those patches (and the eventual removal of in kernel inotify) will come after the new inotify_user proves to be working correctly.

2009-06-11fsnotify: handle filesystem unmounts with fsnotify marksEric Paris
When an fs is unmounted with an fsnotify mark entry attached to one of its inodes we need to destroy that mark entry and we also (like inotify) send an unmount event. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Acked-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
2009-06-11fsnotify: fsnotify marks on inodes pin them in coreEric Paris
This patch pins any inodes with an fsnotify mark in core. The idea is that as soon as the mark is removed from the inode->fsnotify_mark_entries list the inode will be iput. In reality is doesn't quite work exactly this way. The igrab will happen when the mark is added to an inode, but the iput will happen when the inode pointer is NULL'd inside the mark. It's possible that 2 racing things will try to remove the mark from different directions. One may try to remove the mark because of an explicit request and one might try to remove it because the inode was deleted. It's possible that the removal because of inode deletion will remove the mark from the inode's list, but the removal by explicit request will actually set entry->inode == NULL; and call the iput. This is safe. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Acked-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
2009-06-11fsnotify: allow groups to add private data to eventsEric Paris

2009-06-11fsnotify: add correlations between eventsEric Paris
As part of the standard inotify events it includes a correlation cookie between two dentry move operations. This patch includes the same behaviour in fsnotify events. It is needed so that inotify userspace can be implemented on top of fsnotify.

2009-06-11fsnotify: include pathnames with entries when possibleEric Paris

2009-06-11fsnotify: generic notification queue and waitqEric Paris
inotify needs to do asyc notification in which event information is stored on a queue until the listener is ready to receive it.

2009-06-11fsnotify: parent event notificationEric Paris
inotify and dnotify both use a similar parent notification mechanism. We add a generic parent notification mechanism to fsnotify for both of these to use. This new machanism also adds the dentry flag optimization which exists for inotify to dnotify.

2009-06-11fsnotify: add marks to inodes so groups can interpret how to handle those inodesEric Paris
This patch creates a way for fsnotify groups to attach marks to inodes. These marks have little meaning to the generic fsnotify infrastructure and thus their meaning should be interpreted by the group that attached them to the inode's list. dnotify and inotify will make use of these markings to indicate which inodes are of interest to their respective groups. But this implementation has the useful property that in the future other listeners could actually use the marks for the exact opposite reason, aka to indicate which inodes it had NO interest in.

2009-06-11fsnotify: unified filesystem notification backendEric Paris
fsnotify is a backend for filesystem notification. fsnotify does not provide any userspace interface but does provide the basis needed for other notification schemes such as dnotify. fsnotify can be extended to be the backend for inotify or the upcoming fanotify. fsnotify provides a mechanism for "groups" to register for some set of filesystem events and to then deliver those events to those groups for processing. fsnotify has a number of benefits, the first being actually shrinking the size of an inode. Before fsnotify to support both dnotify and inotify an inode had unsigned long i_dnotify_mask; /* Directory notify events */ struct dnotify_struct *i_dnotify; /* for directory notifications */ struct list_head inotify_watches; /* watches on this inode */ struct mutex inotify_mutex; /* protects the watches list But with fsnotify this same functionallity (and more) is done with just __u32 i_fsnotify_mask; /* all events for this inode */ struct hlist_head i_fsnotify_mark_entries; /* marks on this inode */ That's right, inotify, dnotify, and fanotify all in 64 bits. We used that much space just in inotify_watches alone, before this patch set. fsnotify object lifetime and locking is MUCH better than what we have today. inotify locking is incredibly complex. See 8f7b0ba1c8539 as an example of what's been busted since inception. inotify needs to know internal semantics of superblock destruction and unmounting to function. The inode pinning and vfs contortions are horrible. no fsnotify implementers do allocation under locks. This means things like f04b30de3 which (due to an overabundance of caution) changes GFP_KERNEL to GFP_NOFS can be reverted. There are no longer any allocation rules when using or implementing your own fsnotify listener. fsnotify paves the way for fanotify. In brief fanotify is a notification mechanism that delivers the lisener both an 'event' and an open file descriptor to the object in question. This means that fanotify is pathname agnostic. Some on lkml may not care for the original companies or users that pushed for TALPA, but fanotify was designed with flexibility and input for other users in mind. The readahead group expressed interest in fanotify as it could be used to profile disk access on boot without breaking the audit system. The desktop search groups have also expressed interest in fanotify as it solves a number of the race conditions and problems present with managing inotify when more than a limited number of specific files are of interest. fanotify can provide for a userspace access control system which makes it a clean interface for AV vendors to hook without trying to do binary patching on the syscall table, LSM, and everywhere else they do their things today. With this patch series fanotify can be implemented in less than 1200 lines of easy to review code. Almost all of which is the socket based user interface. This patch series builds fsnotify to the point that it can implement dnotify and inotify_user. Patches exist and will be sent soon after acceptance to finish the in kernel inotify conversion (audit) and implement fanotify.

2009-06-09jbd: fix race in buffer processing in commit codeJan Kara
In commit code, we scan buffers attached to a transaction. During this scan, we sometimes have to drop j_list_lock and then we recheck whether the journal buffer head didn't get freed by journal_try_to_free_buffers(). But checking for buffer_jbd(bh) isn't enough because a new journal head could get attached to our buffer head. So add a check whether the journal head remained the same and whether it's still at the same transaction and list. This is a nasty bug and can cause problems like memory corruption (use after free) or trigger various assertions in JBD code (observed).

2009-06-09autofs4: remove hashed check in validate_wait()Ian Kent
The recent ->lookup() deadlock correction required the directory inode mutex to be dropped while waiting for expire completion. We were concerned about side effects from this change and one has been identified. I saw several error messages. They cause autofs to become quite confused and don't really point to the actual problem. Things like: handle_packet_missing_direct:1376: can't find map entry for (43,1827932) which is usually totally fatal (although in this case it wouldn't be except that I treat is as such because it normally is). do_mount_direct: direct trigger not valid or already mounted /test/nested/g3c/s1/ss1 which is recoverable, however if this problem is at play it can cause autofs to become quite confused as to the dependencies in the mount tree because mount triggers end up mounted multiple times. It's hard to accurately check for this over mounting case and automount shouldn't need to if the kernel module is doing its job. There was one other message, similar in consequence of this last one but I can't locate a log example just now. When checking if a mount has already completed prior to adding a new mount request to the wait queue we check if the dentry is hashed and, if so, if it is a mount point. But, if a mount successfully completed while we slept on the wait queue mutex the dentry must exist for the mount to have completed so the test is not really needed. Mounts can also be done on top of a global root dentry, so for the above case, where a mount request completes and the wait queue entry has already been removed, the hashed test returning false can cause an incorrect callback to the daemon. Also, d_mountpoint() is not sufficient to check if a mount has completed for the multi-mount case when we don't have a real mount at the base of the tree.

Doing so adds these new capabilities to this tracepoint: - zero-copy and per-cpu splice() tracing - binary tracing without printf overhead - structured logging records exposed under /debug/tracing/events - trace events embedded in function tracer output and other plugins - user-defined, per tracepoint filter expressions ... Cons: - no dev_t info for the output of plug, unplug_timer and unplug_io events. no dev_t info for getrq and sleeprq events if bio == NULL. no dev_t info for rq_abort,...,rq_requeue events if rq->rq_disk == NULL. This is mainly because we can't get the deivce from a request queue. But this may change in the future. - A packet command is converted to a string in TP_assign, not TP_print. While blktrace do the convertion just before output. Since pc requests should be rather rare, this is not a big issue. - In blktrace, an event can have 2 different print formats, but a TRACE_EVENT has a unique format, which means we have some unused data in a trace entry. The overhead is minimized by using __dynamic_array() instead of __array(). I've benchmarked the ioctl blktrace vs the splice based TRACE_EVENT tracing: dd dd + ioctl blktrace dd + TRACE_EVENT (splice) 1 7.36s, 42.7 MB/s 7.50s, 42.0 MB/s 7.41s, 42.5 MB/s 2 7.43s, 42.3 MB/s 7.48s, 42.1 MB/s 7.43s, 42.4 MB/s 3 7.38s, 42.6 MB/s 7.45s, 42.2 MB/s 7.41s, 42.5 MB/s So the overhead of tracing is very small, and no regression when using those trace events vs blktrace. And the binary output of TRACE_EVENT is much smaller than blktrace: # ls -l -h -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8.8M 06-09 13:24 sda.blktrace.0 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 195K 06-09 13:24 sda.blktrace.1 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2.7M 06-09 13:25 trace_splice.out Following are some comparisons between TRACE_EVENT and blktrace: plug: kjournald-480 [000] 303.084981: block_plug: [kjournald] kjournald-480 [000] 303.084981: 8,0 P N [kjournald] unplug_io: kblockd/0-118 [000] 300.052973: block_unplug_io: [kblockd/0] 1 kblockd/0-118 [000] 300.052974: 8,0 U N [kblockd/0] 1 remap: kjournald-480 [000] 303.085042: block_remap: 8,0 W 102736992 + 8 <- (8,8) 33384 kjournald-480 [000] 303.085043: 8,0 A W 102736992 + 8 <- (8,8) 33384 bio_backmerge: kjournald-480 [000] 303.085086: block_bio_backmerge: 8,0 W 102737032 + 8 [kjournald] kjournald-480 [000] 303.085086: 8,0 M W 102737032 + 8 [kjournald] getrq: kjournald-480 [000] 303.084974: block_getrq: 8,0 W 102736984 + 8 [kjournald] kjournald-480 [000] 303.084975: 8,0 G W 102736984 + 8 [kjournald] bash-2066 [001] 1072.953770: 8,0 G N [bash] bash-2066 [001] 1072.953773: block_getrq: 0,0 N 0 + 0 [bash] rq_complete: konsole-2065 [001] 300.053184: block_rq_complete: 8,0 W () 103669040 + 16 [0] konsole-2065 [001] 300.053191: 8,0 C W 103669040 + 16 [0] ksoftirqd/1-7 [001] 1072.953811: 8,0 C N (5a 00 08 00 00 00 00 00 24 00) [0] ksoftirqd/1-7 [001] 1072.953813: block_rq_complete: 0,0 N (5a 00 08 00 00 00 00 00 24 00) 0 + 0 [0] rq_insert: kjournald-480 [000] 303.084985: block_rq_insert: 8,0 W 0 () 102736984 + 8 [kjournald] kjournald-480 [000] 303.084986: 8,0 I W 102736984 + 8 [kjournald] Changelog from v2 -> v3: - use the newly introduced __dynamic_array().

2009-06-08ext4: fix dx_map_entry to support 256k directory blocksToshiyuki Okajima
The dx_map_entry structure doesn't support over 64KB block size by current usage of its member("offs"). Because "offs" treats an offset of copies of the ext4_dir_entry_2 structure as is. This member size is 16 bits. But real offset for over 64KB(256KB) block size needs 18 bits. However, real offset keeps 4 byte boundary, so lower 2 bits is not used. Therefore, we do the following to fix this limitation: For "store": we divide the real offset by 4 and then store this result to "offs" member. For "use": we multiply "offs" member by 4 and then use this result as real offset. Signed-off-by: Toshiyuki Okajima <toshi.okajima@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

2009-06-06cifs: make overriding of ownership conditional on new mount optionsJeff Layton
We have a bit of a problem with the uid= option. The basic issue is that it means too many things and has too many side-effects. It's possible to allow an unprivileged user to mount a filesystem if the user owns the mountpoint, /bin/mount is setuid root, and the mount is set up in /etc/fstab with the "user" option. When doing this though, /bin/mount automatically adds the "uid=" and "gid=" options to the share. This is fortunate since the correct uid= option is needed in order to tell the upcall what user's credcache to use when generating the SPNEGO blob. On a mount without unix extensions this is fine -- you generally will want the files to be owned by the "owner" of the mount. The problem comes in on a mount with unix extensions. With those enabled, the uid/gid options cause the ownership of files to be overriden even though the server is sending along the ownership info. This means that it's not possible to have a mount by an unprivileged user that shows the server's file ownership info. The result is also inode permissions that have no reflection at all on the server. You simply cannot separate ownership from the mode in this fashion. This behavior also makes MultiuserMount option less usable. Once you pass in the uid= option for a mount, then you can't use unix ownership info and allow someone to share the mount. While I'm not thrilled with it, the only solution I can see is to stop making uid=/gid= force the overriding of ownership on mounts, and to add new mount options that turn this behavior on.

2009-06-06ext3/4 with synchronous writes gets wedged by PostfixAl Viro
OK, that's probably the easiest way to do that, as much as I don't like it... Since iget() et.al. will not accept I_FREEING (will wait to go away and restart), and since we'd better have serialization between new/free on fs data structures anyway, we can afford simply skipping I_FREEING et.al. in insert_inode_locked(). We do that from new_inode, so it won't race with free_inode in any interesting ways and it won't race with iget (of any origin; nfsd or in case of fs corruption a lookup) since both still will wait for I_LOCK.

2009-06-06Fix nobh_truncate_page() to not pass stack garbage to get_block()Theodore Ts'o
The nobh_truncate_page() function is used by ext2, exofs, and jfs. Of these three, only ext2 and jfs's get_block() function pays attention to bh->b_size --- which is normally always the filesystem blocksize except when the get_block() function is called by either mpage_readpage(), mpage_readpages(), or the direct I/O routines in fs/direct_io.c. Unfortunately, nobh_truncate_page() does not initialize map_bh before calling the filesystem-supplied get_block() function. So ext2 and jfs will try to calculate the number of blocks to map by taking stack garbage and shifting it left by inode->i_blkbits. This should be *mostly* harmless (except the filesystem will do some unnneeded work) unless the stack garbage is less than filesystem's blocksize, in which case maxblocks will be zero, and the attempt to find out whether or not the filesystem has a hole at a given logical block will fail, and the page cache entry might not get zero'ed out. Also if the stack garbage in in map_bh->state happens to have the BH_Mapped bit set, there could be an attempt to call readpage() on a non-existent page, which could cause nobh_truncate_page() to return an error when it should not. Fix this by initializing map_bh->state and map_bh->size. Fortunately, it's probably fairly unlikely that ext2 and jfs users mount with nobh these days.
