* 9p: Convert to using the netfs helper lib to do reads and cachingDavid Howells2021-11-031-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Convert the 9p filesystem to use the netfs helper lib to handle readpage, readahead and write_begin, converting those into a common issue_op for the filesystem itself to handle. The netfs helper lib also handles reading from fscache if a cache is available, and interleaving reads from both sources. This change also switches from the old fscache I/O API to the new one, meaning that fscache no longer keeps track of netfs pages and instead does async DIO between the backing files and the 9p file pagecache. As a part of this change, the handling of PG_fscache changes. It now just means that the cache has a write I/O operation in progress on a page (PG_locked is used for a read I/O op). Note that this is a cut-down version of the fscache rewrite and does not change any of the cookie and cache coherency handling. Changes ======= ver #4: - Rebase on top of folios. - Don't use wait_on_page_bit_killable(). ver #3: - v9fs_req_issue_op() needs to terminate the subrequest. - v9fs_write_end() needs to call SetPageUptodate() a bit more often. - It's not CONFIG_{AFS,V9FS}_FSCACHE[1] - v9fs_init_rreq() should take a ref on the p9_fid and the cleanup should drop it [from Dominique Martinet].

* fs: make helpers idmap mount awareChristian Brauner2021-01-241-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is trivial to do: - add flags argument to foo_rename() - check if flags is zero - assign foo_rename() to .rename2 instead of .rename This doesn't mean it's impossible to support RENAME_NOREPLACE for these filesystems, but it is not trivial, like for local filesystems. RENAME_NOREPLACE must guarantee atomicity (i.e. it shouldn't be possible for a file to be created on one host while it is overwritten by rename on another host). Filesystems converted: 9p, afs, ceph, coda, ecryptfs, kernfs, lustre, ncpfs, nfs, ocfs2, orangefs. After this, we can get rid of the duplicate interfaces for rename.

Also it is convenient in the future to add other types of acls like richacls. Ideally, the access mode 'client' should be just like V9FS_ACCESS_USER except it underscores the location of access check. Traditional 9P protocol lets the server perform access checks but with this mode, all the access checks will be performed on the client itself. Server just follows the client's directive.

The FS-Cache indexing tree is indexed at 3 levels: - session object associated with each mount. - inode/vcookie - actual data (pages) A cache tag is chosen randomly for each session. These tags can be read off /sys/fs/9p/caches and can be passed as a mount-time parameter to re-attach to the specified caching session.

* 9p: attach-per-userLatchesar Ionkov2007-10-171-3/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 9P2000 protocol requires the authentication and permission checks to be done in the file server. For that reason every user that accesses the file server tree has to authenticate and attach to the server separately. Multiple users can share the same connection to the server. Currently v9fs does a single attach and executes all I/O operations as a single user. This makes using v9fs in multiuser environment unsafe as it depends on the client doing the permission checking. This patch improves the 9P2000 support by allowing every user to attach separately. The patch defines three modes of access (new mount option 'access'): - attach-per-user (access=user) (default mode for 9P2000.u) If a user tries to access a file served by v9fs for the first time, v9fs sends an attach command to the server (Tattach) specifying the user. If the attach succeeds, the user can access the v9fs tree. As there is no uname->uid (string->integer) mapping yet, this mode works only with the 9P2000.u dialect. - allow only one user to access the tree (access=<uid>) Only the user with uid can access the v9fs tree. Other users that attempt to access it will get EPERM error. - do all operations as a single user (access=any) (default for 9P2000) V9fs does a single attach and all operations are done as a single user. If this mode is selected, the v9fs behavior is identical with the current one. Signed-off-by: Latchesar Ionkov <lucho@ionkov.net> Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While cacheing is generally frowned upon in the 9p world, it has its place -- particularly in situations where the remote file system is exclusive and/or read-only. The vacfs views of venti content addressable store are a real-world instance of such a situation. To facilitate higher performance for these workloads (and eventually use the fscache patches), we have enabled a "loose" cache mode which does not attempt to maintain any form of consistency on the page-cache or dcache. This results in over two orders of magnitude performance improvement for cacheable block reads in the Bonnie benchmark. The more aggressive use of the dcache also seems to improve metadata operational performance. Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
