* fs: port ->permission() to pass mnt_idmapChristian Brauner2023-01-191-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Convert to struct mnt_idmap. Last cycle we merged the necessary infrastructure in 256c8aed2b42 ("fs: introduce dedicated idmap type for mounts"). This is just the conversion to struct mnt_idmap. Currently we still pass around the plain namespace that was attached to a mount. This is in general pretty convenient but it makes it easy to conflate namespaces that are relevant on the filesystem with namespaces that are relevent on the mount level. Especially for non-vfs developers without detailed knowledge in this area this can be a potential source for bugs. Once the conversion to struct mnt_idmap is done all helpers down to the really low-level helpers will take a struct mnt_idmap argument instead of two namespace arguments. This way it becomes impossible to conflate the two eliminating the possibility of any bugs. All of the vfs and all filesystems only operate on struct mnt_idmap.

* autofs: use dentry info count instead of simple_empty()Ian Kent2022-07-171-10/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The dentry info. field count is used to check if a dentry is in use during expire. But, to be used for this the count field must account for the presence of child dentries in a directory dentry. Therefore it can also be used to check for an empty directory dentry which can be done without having to to take an additional lock or account for the presence of a readdir cursor dentry as is done by simple_empty().

* fs: make helpers idmap mount awareChristian Brauner2021-01-241-7/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Extend some inode methods with an additional user namespace argument. A filesystem that is aware of idmapped mounts will receive the user namespace the mount has been marked with. This can be used for additional permission checking and also to enable filesystems to translate between uids and gids if they need to. We have implemented all relevant helpers in earlier patches. As requested we simply extend the exisiting inode method instead of introducing new ones. This is a little more code churn but it's mostly mechanical and doesnt't leave us with additional inode methods.

* autofs: don't bother with atomics for ino->countAl Viro2019-09-171-10/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | All writers are serialized on inode->i_rwsem. So are the readers outside of expire.c. And the readers in expire.c are in the code that really doesn't care about narrow races - it's looking for expiry candidates and its callers have to cope with the possibility of a good candidate becoming busy right under them. No point bothering with atomic operations - just use int and mark the non-serialized readers with READ_ONCE(). Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

* autofs: add strictexpire mount optionIan Kent2019-01-041-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 092a53452bb7 ("autofs: take more care to not update last_used on path walk") helped to (partially) resolve a problem where automounts were not expiring due to aggressive accesses from user space. This patch was later reverted because, for very large environments, it meant more mount requests from clients and when there are a lot of clients this caused a fairly significant increase in server load. But there is a need for both types of expire check, depending on use case, so add a mount option to allow for strict update of last use of autofs dentrys (which just means not updating the last use on path walk access).

* autofs: fix directory and symlink accessIan Kent2018-08-221-3/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Depending on how it is configured the autofs user space daemon can leave in use mounts mounted at exit and re-connect to them at start up. But for this to work best the state of the autofs file system needs to be left intact over the restart. Also, at system shutdown, mounts in an autofs file system might be umounted exposing a mount point trigger for which subsequent access can lead to a hang. So recent versions of automount(8) now does its best to set autofs file system mounts catatonic at shutdown. When autofs file system mounts are catatonic it's currently possible to create and remove directories and symlinks which can be a problem at restart, as described above. So return EACCES in the directory, symlink and unlink methods if the autofs file system is catatonic.

* fs/: do not fallback to default_llseek() when readdir() uses BKLjan Blunck2010-05-271-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Do not use the fallback default_llseek() if the readdir operation of the filesystem still uses the big kernel lock. Since llseek() modifies file->f_pos of the directory directly it may need locking to not confuse readdir which usually uses file->f_pos directly as well Since the special characteristics of the BKL (unlocked on schedule) are not necessary in this case, the inode mutex can be used for locking as provided by generic_file_llseek(). This is only possible since all filesystems, except reiserfs, either use a directory as a flat file or with disk address offsets. Reiserfs on the other hand uses a 32bit hash off the filename as the offset so generic_file_llseek() can get used as well since the hash is always smaller than sb->s_maxbytes (= (512 << 32) - blocksize).

* include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo2010-03-301-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

| | | | | | | | | | | This is mostly included for parity with dec_nlink(), where we will have some more hooks. This one should stay pretty darn straightforward for now.

* [PATCH] r/o bind mounts: unlink: monitor i_nlinkDave Hansen2006-10-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a filesystem decrements i_nlink to zero, it means that a write must be performed in order to drop the inode from the filesystem. We're shortly going to have keep filesystems from being remounted r/o between the time that this i_nlink decrement and that write occurs. So, add a little helper function to do the decrements. We'll tie into it in a bit to note when i_nlink hits zero.

* [PATCH] Make most file operations structs in fs/ constArjan van de Ven2006-03-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a conversion to make the various file_operations structs in fs/ const. Basically a regexp job, with a few manual fixups The goal is both to increase correctness (harder to accidentally write to shared datastructures) and reducing the false sharing of cachelines with things that get dirty in .data (while .rodata is nicely read only and thus cache clean) Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch converts the inode semaphore to a mutex. I have tested it on XFS and compiled as much as one can consider on an ia64. Anyway your luck with it might be different.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
