[PATCH] inotify
inotify is intended to correct the deficiencies of dnotify, particularly
its inability to scale and its terrible user interface:
* dnotify requires the opening of one fd per each directory
that you intend to watch. This quickly results in too many
open files and pins removable media, preventing unmount.
* dnotify is directory-based. You only learn about changes to
directories. Sure, a change to a file in a directory affects
the directory, but you are then forced to keep a cache of
stat structures.
* dnotify's interface to user-space is awful. Signals?
inotify provides a more usable, simple, powerful solution to file change
notification:
* inotify's interface is a system call that returns a fd, not SIGIO.
You get a single fd, which is select()-able.
* inotify has an event that says "the filesystem that the item
you were watching is on was unmounted."
* inotify can watch directories or files.
Inotify is currently used by Beagle (a desktop search infrastructure),
Gamin (a FAM replacement), and other projects.

/* [Feb-1997 T. Schoebel-Theuer]
|
|
|
|
* Fundamental changes in the pathname lookup mechanisms (namei)
|
|
|
|
* were necessary because of omirr. The reason is that omirr needs
|
|
|
|
* to know the _real_ pathname, not the user-supplied one, in case
|
|
|
|
* of symlinks (and also when transname replacements occur).
|
|
|
|
*
|
|
|
|
* The new code replaces the old recursive symlink resolution with
|
|
|
|
* an iterative one (in case of non-nested symlink chains). It does
|
|
|
|
* this with calls to <fs>_follow_link().
|
|
|
|
* As a side effect, dir_namei(), _namei() and follow_link() are now
|
|
|
|
* replaced with a single function lookup_dentry() that can handle all
|
|
|
|
* the special cases of the former code.
|
|
|
|
*
|
|
|
|
* With the new dcache, the pathname is stored at each inode, at least as
|
|
|
|
* long as the refcount of the inode is positive. As a side effect, the
|
|
|
|
* size of the dcache depends on the inode cache and thus is dynamic.
|
|
|
|
*
|
|
|
|
* [29-Apr-1998 C. Scott Ananian] Updated above description of symlink
|
|
|
|
* resolution to correspond with current state of the code.
|
|
|
|
*
|
|
|
|
* Note that the symlink resolution is not *completely* iterative.
|
|
|
|
* There is still a significant amount of tail- and mid- recursion in
|
|
|
|
* the algorithm. Also, note that <fs>_readlink() is not used in
|
|
|
|
* lookup_dentry(): lookup_dentry() on the result of <fs>_readlink()
|
|
|
|
* may return different results than <fs>_follow_link(). Many virtual
|
|
|
|
* filesystems (including /proc) exhibit this behavior.

/* [24-Feb-97 T. Schoebel-Theuer] Side effects caused by new implementation:
|
|
|
|
* New symlink semantics: when open() is called with flags O_CREAT | O_EXCL
|
|
|
|
* and the name already exists in form of a symlink, try to create the new
|
|
|
|
* name indicated by the symlink. The old code always complained that the
|
|
|
|
* name already exists, due to not following the symlink even if its target
|
|
|
|
* is nonexistent. The new semantics affects also mknod() and link() when
|
2011-03-31 03:57:33 +02:00

|
|
|
|
* to standards. But I found by trial that HP-UX 9.0 has the full "new"
|
|
|
|
* semantics implemented, while SunOS 4.1.1 and Solaris (SunOS 5.4) have the
|
|
|
|
* "old" one. Personally, I think the new semantics is much more logical.
|
|
|
|
* Note that "ln old new" where "new" is a symlink pointing to a non-existing
|
|
|
|
* file does succeed in both HP-UX and SunOs, but not in Solaris
|
|
|
|

fs: rcu-walk for path lookup
Perform common cases of path lookups without any stores or locking in the
ancestor dentry elements. This is called rcu-walk, as opposed to the current
algorithm which is a refcount based walk, or ref-walk.
This results in far fewer atomic operations on every path element,
significantly improving path lookup performance. It also avoids cacheline
bouncing on common dentries, significantly improving scalability.
The overall design is like this:
* LOOKUP_RCU is set in nd->flags, which distinguishes rcu-walk from ref-walk.
* Take the RCU lock for the entire path walk, starting with the acquiring
of the starting path (eg. root/cwd/fd-path). So now dentry refcounts are
not required for dentry persistence.
* synchronize_rcu is called when unregistering a filesystem, so we can
access d_ops and i_ops during rcu-walk.
* Similarly take the vfsmount lock for the entire path walk. So now mnt
refcounts are not required for persistence. Also we are free to perform mount
lookups, and to assume dentry mount points and mount roots are stable up and
down the path.
* Have a per-dentry seqlock to protect the dentry name, parent, and inode,
so we can load this tuple atomically, and also check whether any of its
members have changed.
* Dentry lookups (based on parent, candidate string tuple) recheck the parent
sequence after the child is found in case anything changed in the parent
during the path walk.
* inode is also RCU protected so we can load d_inode and use the inode for
limited things.
* i_mode, i_uid, i_gid can be tested for exec permissions during path walk.
* i_op can be loaded.
When we reach the destination dentry, we lock it, recheck lookup sequence,
and increment its refcount and mountpoint refcount. RCU and vfsmount locks
are dropped. This is termed "dropping rcu-walk". If the dentry refcount does
not match, we can not drop rcu-walk gracefully at the current point in the
lokup, so instead return -ECHILD (for want of a better errno). This signals the
path walking code to re-do the entire lookup with a ref-walk.
Aside from the final dentry, there are other situations that may be encounted
where we cannot continue rcu-walk. In that case, we drop rcu-walk (ie. take
a reference on the last good dentry) and continue with a ref-walk. Again, if
we can drop rcu-walk gracefully, we return -ECHILD and do the whole lookup
using ref-walk. But it is very important that we can continue with ref-walk
for most cases, particularly to avoid the overhead of double lookups, and to
gain the scalability advantages on common path elements (like cwd and root).
The cases where rcu-walk cannot continue are:
* NULL dentry (ie. any uncached path element)
* parent with d_inode->i_op->permission or ACLs
* dentries with d_revalidate
* Following links
In future patches, permission checks and d_revalidate become rcu-walk aware. It
may be possible eventually to make following links rcu-walk aware.
Uncached path elements will always require dropping to ref-walk mode, at the
very least because i_mutex needs to be grabbed, and objects allocated.

* Path walking has 2 modes, rcu-walk and ref-walk (see
|
2011-03-25 15:32:48 +01:00
|
|
|
* Documentation/filesystems/path-lookup.txt). In situations when we can't
|
|
|
|
* continue in RCU mode, we attempt to drop out of rcu-walk mode and grab
|
|
|
|
* normal reference counts on dentries and vfsmounts to transition to rcu-walk
|
|
|
|
* mode. Refcounts are grabbed at the last known good point before rcu-walk
|
|
|
|
* got stuck, so ref-walk may continue from there. If this is not successful
|
|
|
|
* (eg. a seqcount has changed), then failure is returned and it's up to caller
|
|
|
|
* to restart the path walk from the beginning in ref-walk mode.

fs: rcu-walk for path lookup
Perform common cases of path lookups without any stores or locking in the
ancestor dentry elements. This is called rcu-walk, as opposed to the current
algorithm which is a refcount based walk, or ref-walk.
This results in far fewer atomic operations on every path element,
significantly improving path lookup performance. It also avoids cacheline
bouncing on common dentries, significantly improving scalability.
The overall design is like this:
* LOOKUP_RCU is set in nd->flags, which distinguishes rcu-walk from ref-walk.
* Take the RCU lock for the entire path walk, starting with the acquiring
of the starting path (eg. root/cwd/fd-path). So now dentry refcounts are
not required for dentry persistence.
* synchronize_rcu is called when unregistering a filesystem, so we can
access d_ops and i_ops during rcu-walk.
* Similarly take the vfsmount lock for the entire path walk. So now mnt
refcounts are not required for persistence. Also we are free to perform mount
lookups, and to assume dentry mount points and mount roots are stable up and
down the path.
* Have a per-dentry seqlock to protect the dentry name, parent, and inode,
so we can load this tuple atomically, and also check whether any of its
members have changed.
* Dentry lookups (based on parent, candidate string tuple) recheck the parent
sequence after the child is found in case anything changed in the parent
during the path walk.
* inode is also RCU protected so we can load d_inode and use the inode for
limited things.
* i_mode, i_uid, i_gid can be tested for exec permissions during path walk.
* i_op can be loaded.
When we reach the destination dentry, we lock it, recheck lookup sequence,
and increment its refcount and mountpoint refcount. RCU and vfsmount locks
are dropped. This is termed "dropping rcu-walk". If the dentry refcount does
not match, we can not drop rcu-walk gracefully at the current point in the
lokup, so instead return -ECHILD (for want of a better errno). This signals the
path walking code to re-do the entire lookup with a ref-walk.
Aside from the final dentry, there are other situations that may be encounted
where we cannot continue rcu-walk. In that case, we drop rcu-walk (ie. take
a reference on the last good dentry) and continue with a ref-walk. Again, if
we can drop rcu-walk gracefully, we return -ECHILD and do the whole lookup

lookups, and to assume dentry mount points and mount roots are stable up and
down the path.
* Have a per-dentry seqlock to protect the dentry name, parent, and inode,
so we can load this tuple atomically, and also check whether any of its
members have changed.
* Dentry lookups (based on parent, candidate string tuple) recheck the parent
sequence after the child is found in case anything changed in the parent
during the path walk.
* inode is also RCU protected so we can load d_inode and use the inode for
limited things.
* i_mode, i_uid, i_gid can be tested for exec permissions during path walk.
* i_op can be loaded.
When we reach the destination dentry, we lock it, recheck lookup sequence,
and increment its refcount and mountpoint refcount. RCU and vfsmount locks
are dropped. This is termed "dropping rcu-walk". If the dentry refcount does
not match, we can not drop rcu-walk gracefully at the current point in the
lokup, so instead return -ECHILD (for want of a better errno). This signals the
path walking code to re-do the entire lookup with a ref-walk.
Aside from the final dentry, there are other situations that may be encounted
where we cannot continue rcu-walk. In that case, we drop rcu-walk (ie. take
a reference on the last good dentry) and continue with a ref-walk. Again, if
we can drop rcu-walk gracefully, we return -ECHILD and do the whole lookup
using ref-walk. But it is very important that we can continue with ref-walk
for most cases, particularly to avoid the overhead of double lookups, and to
gain the scalability advantages on common path elements (like cwd and root).
The cases where rcu-walk cannot continue are:
* NULL dentry (ie. any uncached path element)
* parent with d_inode->i_op->permission or ACLs
* dentries with d_revalidate
* Following links
In future patches, permission checks and d_revalidate become rcu-walk aware. It
may be possible eventually to make following links rcu-walk aware.
Uncached path elements will always require dropping to ref-walk mode, at the
very least because i_mutex needs to be grabbed, and objects allocated.

fs: rcu-walk for path lookup
Perform common cases of path lookups without any stores or locking in the
ancestor dentry elements. This is called rcu-walk, as opposed to the current
algorithm which is a refcount based walk, or ref-walk.
This results in far fewer atomic operations on every path element,
significantly improving path lookup performance. It also avoids cacheline
bouncing on common dentries, significantly improving scalability.
The overall design is like this:
* LOOKUP_RCU is set in nd->flags, which distinguishes rcu-walk from ref-walk.
* Take the RCU lock for the entire path walk, starting with the acquiring
of the starting path (eg. root/cwd/fd-path). So now dentry refcounts are
not required for dentry persistence.
* synchronize_rcu is called when unregistering a filesystem, so we can
access d_ops and i_ops during rcu-walk.
* Similarly take the vfsmount lock for the entire path walk. So now mnt
refcounts are not required for persistence. Also we are free to perform mount
lookups, and to assume dentry mount points and mount roots are stable up and
down the path.
* Have a per-dentry seqlock to protect the dentry name, parent, and inode,
so we can load this tuple atomically, and also check whether any of its
members have changed.
* Dentry lookups (based on parent, candidate string tuple) recheck the parent
sequence after the child is found in case anything changed in the parent
during the path walk.
* inode is also RCU protected so we can load d_inode and use the inode for
limited things.
* i_mode, i_uid, i_gid can be tested for exec permissions during path walk.
* i_op can be loaded.
When we reach the destination dentry, we lock it, recheck lookup sequence,
and increment its refcount and mountpoint refcount. RCU and vfsmount locks
are dropped. This is termed "dropping rcu-walk". If the dentry refcount does
not match, we can not drop rcu-walk gracefully at the current point in the
lokup, so instead return -ECHILD (for want of a better errno). This signals the
path walking code to re-do the entire lookup with a ref-walk.
Aside from the final dentry, there are other situations that may be encounted
where we cannot continue rcu-walk. In that case, we drop rcu-walk (ie. take
a reference on the last good dentry) and continue with a ref-walk. Again, if
we can drop rcu-walk gracefully, we return -ECHILD and do the whole lookup
using ref-walk. But it is very important that we can continue with ref-walk
for most cases, particularly to avoid the overhead of double lookups, and to
gain the scalability advantages on common path elements (like cwd and root).
The cases where rcu-walk cannot continue are:
* NULL dentry (ie. any uncached path element)
* parent with d_inode->i_op->permission or ACLs
* dentries with d_revalidate
* Following links
In future patches, permission checks and d_revalidate become rcu-walk aware. It
may be possible eventually to make following links rcu-walk aware.
Uncached path elements will always require dropping to ref-walk mode, at the
very least because i_mutex needs to be grabbed, and objects allocated.

When we reach the destination dentry, we lock it, recheck lookup sequence,
and increment its refcount and mountpoint refcount. RCU and vfsmount locks
are dropped. This is termed "dropping rcu-walk". If the dentry refcount does
not match, we can not drop rcu-walk gracefully at the current point in the
lokup, so instead return -ECHILD (for want of a better errno). This signals the
path walking code to re-do the entire lookup with a ref-walk.
Aside from the final dentry, there are other situations that may be encounted
where we cannot continue rcu-walk. In that case, we drop rcu-walk (ie. take
a reference on the last good dentry) and continue with a ref-walk. Again, if
we can drop rcu-walk gracefully, we return -ECHILD and do the whole lookup
using ref-walk. But it is very important that we can continue with ref-walk
for most cases, particularly to avoid the overhead of double lookups, and to
gain the scalability advantages on common path elements (like cwd and root).
The cases where rcu-walk cannot continue are:
* NULL dentry (ie. any uncached path element)
* parent with d_inode->i_op->permission or ACLs
* dentries with d_revalidate
* Following links
In future patches, permission checks and d_revalidate become rcu-walk aware. It
may be possible eventually to make following links rcu-walk aware.
Uncached path elements will always require dropping to ref-walk mode, at the
very least because i_mutex needs to be grabbed, and objects allocated.

fs: rcu-walk for path lookup
Perform common cases of path lookups without any stores or locking in the
ancestor dentry elements. This is called rcu-walk, as opposed to the current
algorithm which is a refcount based walk, or ref-walk.
This results in far fewer atomic operations on every path element,
significantly improving path lookup performance. It also avoids cacheline
bouncing on common dentries, significantly improving scalability.
The overall design is like this:
* LOOKUP_RCU is set in nd->flags, which distinguishes rcu-walk from ref-walk.
* Take the RCU lock for the entire path walk, starting with the acquiring
of the starting path (eg. root/cwd/fd-path). So now dentry refcounts are
not required for dentry persistence.
* synchronize_rcu is called when unregistering a filesystem, so we can
access d_ops and i_ops during rcu-walk.
* Similarly take the vfsmount lock for the entire path walk. So now mnt
refcounts are not required for persistence. Also we are free to perform mount
lookups, and to assume dentry mount points and mount roots are stable up and
down the path.
* Have a per-dentry seqlock to protect the dentry name, parent, and inode,
so we can load this tuple atomically, and also check whether any of its
members have changed.
* Dentry lookups (based on parent, candidate string tuple) recheck the parent
sequence after the child is found in case anything changed in the parent
during the path walk.
* inode is also RCU protected so we can load d_inode and use the inode for
limited things.
* i_mode, i_uid, i_gid can be tested for exec permissions during path walk.
* i_op can be loaded.
When we reach the destination dentry, we lock it, recheck lookup sequence,
and increment its refcount and mountpoint refcount. RCU and vfsmount locks
are dropped. This is termed "dropping rcu-walk". If the dentry refcount does
not match, we can not drop rcu-walk gracefully at the current point in the

we can drop rcu-walk gracefully, we return -ECHILD and do the whole lookup
using ref-walk. But it is very important that we can continue with ref-walk
for most cases, particularly to avoid the overhead of double lookups, and to
gain the scalability advantages on common path elements (like cwd and root).
The cases where rcu-walk cannot continue are:
* NULL dentry (ie. any uncached path element)
* parent with d_inode->i_op->permission or ACLs
* dentries with d_revalidate
* Following links
In future patches, permission checks and d_revalidate become rcu-walk aware. It
may be possible eventually to make following links rcu-walk aware.
Uncached path elements will always require dropping to ref-walk mode, at the
very least because i_mutex needs to be grabbed, and objects allocated.

fs: rcu-walk for path lookup
Perform common cases of path lookups without any stores or locking in the
ancestor dentry elements. This is called rcu-walk, as opposed to the current
algorithm which is a refcount based walk, or ref-walk.
This results in far fewer atomic operations on every path element,
significantly improving path lookup performance. It also avoids cacheline
bouncing on common dentries, significantly improving scalability.
The overall design is like this:
* LOOKUP_RCU is set in nd->flags, which distinguishes rcu-walk from ref-walk.
* Take the RCU lock for the entire path walk, starting with the acquiring
of the starting path (eg. root/cwd/fd-path). So now dentry refcounts are
not required for dentry persistence.
* synchronize_rcu is called when unregistering a filesystem, so we can
access d_ops and i_ops during rcu-walk.
* Similarly take the vfsmount lock for the entire path walk. So now mnt
refcounts are not required for persistence. Also we are free to perform mount
lookups, and to assume dentry mount points and mount roots are stable up and
down the path.
* Have a per-dentry seqlock to protect the dentry name, parent, and inode,
so we can load this tuple atomically, and also check whether any of its
members have changed.
* Dentry lookups (based on parent, candidate string tuple) recheck the parent
sequence after the child is found in case anything changed in the parent
during the path walk.
* inode is also RCU protected so we can load d_inode and use the inode for
limited things.
* i_mode, i_uid, i_gid can be tested for exec permissions during path walk.
* i_op can be loaded.
When we reach the destination dentry, we lock it, recheck lookup sequence,
and increment its refcount and mountpoint refcount. RCU and vfsmount locks
are dropped. This is termed "dropping rcu-walk". If the dentry refcount does

Add a dentry op to handle automounting rather than abusing follow_link()
Add a dentry op (d_automount) to handle automounting directories rather than
abusing the follow_link() inode operation. The operation is keyed off a new
dentry flag (DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT).
This also makes it easier to add an AT_ flag to suppress terminal segment
automount during pathwalk and removes the need for the kludge code in the
pathwalk algorithm to handle directories with follow_link() semantics.
The ->d_automount() dentry operation:
struct vfsmount *(*d_automount)(struct path *mountpoint);
takes a pointer to the directory to be mounted upon, which is expected to
provide sufficient data to determine what should be mounted. If successful, it
should return the vfsmount struct it creates (which it should also have added
to the namespace using do_add_mount() or similar). If there's a collision with
another automount attempt, NULL should be returned. If the directory specified
by the parameter should be used directly rather than being mounted upon,
-EISDIR should be returned. In any other case, an error code should be
returned.
The ->d_automount() operation is called with no locks held and may sleep. At
this point the pathwalk algorithm will be in ref-walk mode.
Within fs/namei.c itself, a new pathwalk subroutine (follow_automount()) is
added to handle mountpoints. It will return -EREMOTE if the automount flag was
set, but no d_automount() op was supplied, -ELOOP if we've encountered too many
symlinks or mountpoints, -EISDIR if the walk point should be used without
mounting and 0 if successful. The path will be updated to point to the mounted
filesystem if a successful automount took place.
__follow_mount() is replaced by follow_managed() which is more generic
(especially with the patch that adds ->d_manage()). This handles transits from
directories during pathwalk, including automounting and skipping over
mountpoints (and holding processes with the next patch).
__follow_mount_rcu() will jump out of RCU-walk mode if it encounters an
automount point with nothing mounted on it.
follow_dotdot*() does not handle automounts as you don't want to trigger them
whilst following "..".
I've also extracted the mount/don't-mount logic from autofs4 and included it
here. It makes the mount go ahead anyway if someone calls open() or creat(),
tries to traverse the directory, tries to chdir/chroot/etc. into the directory,
or sticks a '/' on the end of the pathname. If they do a stat(), however,
they'll only trigger the automount if they didn't also say O_NOFOLLOW.
I've also added an inode flag (S_AUTOMOUNT) so that filesystems can mark their
inodes as automount points. This flag is automatically propagated to the
dentry as DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT by __d_instantiate(). This saves NFS and could
save AFS a private flag bit apiece, but is not strictly necessary. It would be
preferable to do the propagation in d_set_d_op(), but that doesn't normally
have access to the inode.
[AV: fixed breakage in case if __follow_mount_rcu() fails and nameidata_drop_rcu()
succeeds in RCU case of do_lookup(); we need to fall through to non-RCU case after
that, rather than just returning with ungrabbed *path]

[AV: fixed breakage in case if __follow_mount_rcu() fails and nameidata_drop_rcu()
succeeds in RCU case of do_lookup(); we need to fall through to non-RCU case after
that, rather than just returning with ungrabbed *path]

Add a dentry op to handle automounting rather than abusing follow_link()
Add a dentry op (d_automount) to handle automounting directories rather than
abusing the follow_link() inode operation. The operation is keyed off a new
dentry flag (DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT).
This also makes it easier to add an AT_ flag to suppress terminal segment
automount during pathwalk and removes the need for the kludge code in the
pathwalk algorithm to handle directories with follow_link() semantics.
The ->d_automount() dentry operation:
struct vfsmount *(*d_automount)(struct path *mountpoint);
takes a pointer to the directory to be mounted upon, which is expected to
provide sufficient data to determine what should be mounted. If successful, it
should return the vfsmount struct it creates (which it should also have added
to the namespace using do_add_mount() or similar). If there's a collision with
another automount attempt, NULL should be returned. If the directory specified
by the parameter should be used directly rather than being mounted upon,
-EISDIR should be returned. In any other case, an error code should be
returned.
The ->d_automount() operation is called with no locks held and may sleep. At
this point the pathwalk algorithm will be in ref-walk mode.
Within fs/namei.c itself, a new pathwalk subroutine (follow_automount()) is
added to handle mountpoints. It will return -EREMOTE if the automount flag was
set, but no d_automount() op was supplied, -ELOOP if we've encountered too many
symlinks or mountpoints, -EISDIR if the walk point should be used without
mounting and 0 if successful. The path will be updated to point to the mounted
filesystem if a successful automount took place.
__follow_mount() is replaced by follow_managed() which is more generic
(especially with the patch that adds ->d_manage()). This handles transits from
directories during pathwalk, including automounting and skipping over
mountpoints (and holding processes with the next patch).
__follow_mount_rcu() will jump out of RCU-walk mode if it encounters an
automount point with nothing mounted on it.
follow_dotdot*() does not handle automounts as you don't want to trigger them
whilst following "..".
I've also extracted the mount/don't-mount logic from autofs4 and included it
here. It makes the mount go ahead anyway if someone calls open() or creat(),
tries to traverse the directory, tries to chdir/chroot/etc. into the directory,
or sticks a '/' on the end of the pathname. If they do a stat(), however,
they'll only trigger the automount if they didn't also say O_NOFOLLOW.
I've also added an inode flag (S_AUTOMOUNT) so that filesystems can mark their

vfs pathname lookup: Add LOOKUP_AUTOMOUNT flag
Since we've now turned around and made LOOKUP_FOLLOW *not* force an
automount, we want to add the ability to force an automount event on
lookup even if we don't happen to have one of the other flags that force
it implicitly (LOOKUP_OPEN, LOOKUP_DIRECTORY, LOOKUP_PARENT..)
Most cases will never want to use this, since you'd normally want to
delay automounting as long as possible, which usually implies
LOOKUP_OPEN (when we open a file or directory, we really cannot avoid
the automount any more).
But Trond argued sufficiently forcefully that at a minimum bind mounting
a file and quotactl will want to force the automount lookup. Some other
cases (like nfs_follow_remote_path()) could use it too, although
LOOKUP_DIRECTORY would work there as well.
This commit just adds the flag and logic, no users yet, though. It also
doesn't actually touch the LOOKUP_NO_AUTOMOUNT flag that is related, and
was made irrelevant by the same change that made us not follow on
LOOKUP_FOLLOW.

fs: rcu-walk for path lookup
Perform common cases of path lookups without any stores or locking in the
ancestor dentry elements. This is called rcu-walk, as opposed to the current
algorithm which is a refcount based walk, or ref-walk.
This results in far fewer atomic operations on every path element,
significantly improving path lookup performance. It also avoids cacheline
bouncing on common dentries, significantly improving scalability.
The overall design is like this:
* LOOKUP_RCU is set in nd->flags, which distinguishes rcu-walk from ref-walk.
* Take the RCU lock for the entire path walk, starting with the acquiring
of the starting path (eg. root/cwd/fd-path). So now dentry refcounts are
not required for dentry persistence.
* synchronize_rcu is called when unregistering a filesystem, so we can
access d_ops and i_ops during rcu-walk.
* Similarly take the vfsmount lock for the entire path walk. So now mnt
refcounts are not required for persistence. Also we are free to perform mount
lookups, and to assume dentry mount points and mount roots are stable up and
down the path.
* Have a per-dentry seqlock to protect the dentry name, parent, and inode,
so we can load this tuple atomically, and also check whether any of its
members have changed.
* Dentry lookups (based on parent, candidate string tuple) recheck the parent
sequence after the child is found in case anything changed in the parent
during the path walk.
* inode is also RCU protected so we can load d_inode and use the inode for
limited things.
* i_mode, i_uid, i_gid can be tested for exec permissions during path walk.
* i_op can be loaded.
When we reach the destination dentry, we lock it, recheck lookup sequence,
and increment its refcount and mountpoint refcount. RCU and vfsmount locks
are dropped. This is termed "dropping rcu-walk". If the dentry refcount does
not match, we can not drop rcu-walk gracefully at the current point in the
lokup, so instead return -ECHILD (for want of a better errno). This signals the
path walking code to re-do the entire lookup with a ref-walk.
Aside from the final dentry, there are other situations that may be encounted
where we cannot continue rcu-walk. In that case, we drop rcu-walk (ie. take
a reference on the last good dentry) and continue with a ref-walk. Again, if
we can drop rcu-walk gracefully, we return -ECHILD and do the whole lookup
using ref-walk. But it is very important that we can continue with ref-walk
for most cases, particularly to avoid the overhead of double lookups, and to
gain the scalability advantages on common path elements (like cwd and root).
The cases where rcu-walk cannot continue are:
* NULL dentry (ie. any uncached path element)
* parent with d_inode->i_op->permission or ACLs
* dentries with d_revalidate
* Following links
In future patches, permission checks and d_revalidate become rcu-walk aware. It
may be possible eventually to make following links rcu-walk aware.
Uncached path elements will always require dropping to ref-walk mode, at the
very least because i_mutex needs to be grabbed, and objects allocated.

VFS: Fix vfsmount overput on simultaneous automount
[Kudos to dhowells for tracking that crap down]
If two processes attempt to cause automounting on the same mountpoint at the
same time, the vfsmount holding the mountpoint will be left with one too few
references on it, causing a BUG when the kernel tries to clean up.
The problem is that lock_mount() drops the caller's reference to the
mountpoint's vfsmount in the case where it finds something already mounted on
the mountpoint as it transits to the mounted filesystem and replaces path->mnt
with the new mountpoint vfsmount.
During a pathwalk, however, we don't take a reference on the vfsmount if it is
the same as the one in the nameidata struct, but do_add_mount() doesn't know
this.
The fix is to make sure we have a ref on the vfsmount of the mountpoint before
calling do_add_mount(). However, if lock_mount() doesn't transit, we're then
left with an extra ref on the mountpoint vfsmount which needs releasing.
We can handle that in follow_managed() by not making assumptions about what
we can and what we cannot get from lookup_mnt() as the current code does.
The callers of follow_managed() expect that reference to path->mnt will be
grabbed iff path->mnt has been changed. follow_managed() and follow_automount()
keep track of whether such reference has been grabbed and assume that it'll
happen in those and only those cases that'll have us return with changed
path->mnt. That assumption is almost correct - it breaks in case of
racing automounts and in even harder to hit race between following a mountpoint
and a couple of mount --move. The thing is, we don't need to make that
assumption at all - after the end of loop in follow_manage() we can check
if path->mnt has ended up unchanged and do mntput() if needed.
The BUG can be reproduced with the following test program:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int pid, ws;
struct stat buf;
pid = fork();
stat(argv[1], &buf);
if (pid > 0) wait(&ws);
return 0;
}
and the following procedure:
(1) Mount an NFS volume that on the server has something else mounted on a
subdirectory. For instance, I can mount / from my server:
mount warthog:/ /mnt -t nfs4 -r
On the server /data has another filesystem mounted on it, so NFS will see
a change in FSID as it walks down the path, and will mark /mnt/data as
being a mountpoint. This will cause the automount code to be triggered.
!!! Do not look inside the mounted fs at this point !!!
(2) Run the above program on a file within the submount to generate two
simultaneous automount requests:
/tmp/forkstat /mnt/data/testfile
(3) Unmount the automounted submount:
umount /mnt/data
(4) Unmount the original mount:
umount /mnt

Add a dentry op to handle automounting rather than abusing follow_link()
Add a dentry op (d_automount) to handle automounting directories rather than
abusing the follow_link() inode operation. The operation is keyed off a new
dentry flag (DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT).
This also makes it easier to add an AT_ flag to suppress terminal segment
automount during pathwalk and removes the need for the kludge code in the
pathwalk algorithm to handle directories with follow_link() semantics.
The ->d_automount() dentry operation:
struct vfsmount *(*d_automount)(struct path *mountpoint);
takes a pointer to the directory to be mounted upon, which is expected to
provide sufficient data to determine what should be mounted. If successful, it
should return the vfsmount struct it creates (which it should also have added
to the namespace using do_add_mount() or similar). If there's a collision with
another automount attempt, NULL should be returned. If the directory specified
by the parameter should be used directly rather than being mounted upon,
-EISDIR should be returned. In any other case, an error code should be
returned.
The ->d_automount() operation is called with no locks held and may sleep. At
this point the pathwalk algorithm will be in ref-walk mode.
Within fs/namei.c itself, a new pathwalk subroutine (follow_automount()) is
added to handle mountpoints. It will return -EREMOTE if the automount flag was
set, but no d_automount() op was supplied, -ELOOP if we've encountered too many
symlinks or mountpoints, -EISDIR if the walk point should be used without
mounting and 0 if successful. The path will be updated to point to the mounted
filesystem if a successful automount took place.
__follow_mount() is replaced by follow_managed() which is more generic
(especially with the patch that adds ->d_manage()). This handles transits from
directories during pathwalk, including automounting and skipping over
mountpoints (and holding processes with the next patch).
__follow_mount_rcu() will jump out of RCU-walk mode if it encounters an
automount point with nothing mounted on it.
follow_dotdot*() does not handle automounts as you don't want to trigger them
whilst following "..".
I've also extracted the mount/don't-mount logic from autofs4 and included it
here. It makes the mount go ahead anyway if someone calls open() or creat(),
tries to traverse the directory, tries to chdir/chroot/etc. into the directory,
or sticks a '/' on the end of the pathname. If they do a stat(), however,
they'll only trigger the automount if they didn't also say O_NOFOLLOW.
I've also added an inode flag (S_AUTOMOUNT) so that filesystems can mark their
inodes as automount points. This flag is automatically propagated to the
dentry as DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT by __d_instantiate(). This saves NFS and could
save AFS a private flag bit apiece, but is not strictly necessary. It would be
preferable to do the propagation in d_set_d_op(), but that doesn't normally
have access to the inode.
[AV: fixed breakage in case if __follow_mount_rcu() fails and nameidata_drop_rcu()
succeeds in RCU case of do_lookup(); we need to fall through to non-RCU case after
that, rather than just returning with ungrabbed *path]

VFS: Fix vfsmount overput on simultaneous automount
[Kudos to dhowells for tracking that crap down]
If two processes attempt to cause automounting on the same mountpoint at the
same time, the vfsmount holding the mountpoint will be left with one too few
references on it, causing a BUG when the kernel tries to clean up.
The problem is that lock_mount() drops the caller's reference to the
mountpoint's vfsmount in the case where it finds something already mounted on
the mountpoint as it transits to the mounted filesystem and replaces path->mnt
with the new mountpoint vfsmount.
During a pathwalk, however, we don't take a reference on the vfsmount if it is
the same as the one in the nameidata struct, but do_add_mount() doesn't know
this.
The fix is to make sure we have a ref on the vfsmount of the mountpoint before
calling do_add_mount(). However, if lock_mount() doesn't transit, we're then
left with an extra ref on the mountpoint vfsmount which needs releasing.
We can handle that in follow_managed() by not making assumptions about what
we can and what we cannot get from lookup_mnt() as the current code does.
The callers of follow_managed() expect that reference to path->mnt will be
grabbed iff path->mnt has been changed. follow_managed() and follow_automount()
keep track of whether such reference has been grabbed and assume that it'll
happen in those and only those cases that'll have us return with changed
path->mnt. That assumption is almost correct - it breaks in case of
racing automounts and in even harder to hit race between following a mountpoint
and a couple of mount --move. The thing is, we don't need to make that
assumption at all - after the end of loop in follow_manage() we can check
if path->mnt has ended up unchanged and do mntput() if needed.
The BUG can be reproduced with the following test program:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int pid, ws;
struct stat buf;
pid = fork();
stat(argv[1], &buf);
if (pid > 0) wait(&ws);
return 0;
}
and the following procedure:
(1) Mount an NFS volume that on the server has something else mounted on a
subdirectory. For instance, I can mount / from my server:
mount warthog:/ /mnt -t nfs4 -r
On the server /data has another filesystem mounted on it, so NFS will see
a change in FSID as it walks down the path, and will mark /mnt/data as
being a mountpoint. This will cause the automount code to be triggered.
!!! Do not look inside the mounted fs at this point !!!
(2) Run the above program on a file within the submount to generate two
simultaneous automount requests:
/tmp/forkstat /mnt/data/testfile
(3) Unmount the automounted submount:
umount /mnt/data
(4) Unmount the original mount:
umount /mnt
At this point the kernel should throw a BUG with something like the
following:
BUG: Dentry ffff880032e3c5c0{i=2,n=} still in use (1) [unmount of nfs4 0:12]

Add a dentry op to allow processes to be held during pathwalk transit
Add a dentry op (d_manage) to permit a filesystem to hold a process and make it
sleep when it tries to transit away from one of that filesystem's directories
during a pathwalk. The operation is keyed off a new dentry flag
(DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT).
The filesystem is allowed to be selective about which processes it holds and
which it permits to continue on or prohibits from transiting from each flagged
directory. This will allow autofs to hold up client processes whilst letting
its userspace daemon through to maintain the directory or the stuff behind it
or mounted upon it.
The ->d_manage() dentry operation:
int (*d_manage)(struct path *path, bool mounting_here);
takes a pointer to the directory about to be transited away from and a flag
indicating whether the transit is undertaken by do_add_mount() or
do_move_mount() skipping through a pile of filesystems mounted on a mountpoint.
It should return 0 if successful and to let the process continue on its way;
-EISDIR to prohibit the caller from skipping to overmounted filesystems or
automounting, and to use this directory; or some other error code to return to
the user.
->d_manage() is called with namespace_sem writelocked if mounting_here is true
and no other locks held, so it may sleep. However, if mounting_here is true,
it may not initiate or wait for a mount or unmount upon the parameter
directory, even if the act is actually performed by userspace.
Within fs/namei.c, follow_managed() is extended to check with d_manage() first
on each managed directory, before transiting away from it or attempting to
automount upon it.
follow_down() is renamed follow_down_one() and should only be used where the
filesystem deliberately intends to avoid management steps (e.g. autofs).
A new follow_down() is added that incorporates the loop done by all other
callers of follow_down() (do_add/move_mount(), autofs and NFSD; whilst AFS, NFS
and CIFS do use it, their use is removed by converting them to use
d_automount()). The new follow_down() calls d_manage() as appropriate. It
also takes an extra parameter to indicate if it is being called from mount code
(with namespace_sem writelocked) which it passes to d_manage(). follow_down()
ignores automount points so that it can be used to mount on them.
__follow_mount_rcu() is made to abort rcu-walk mode if it hits a directory with
DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT set on the basis that we're probably going to have to
sleep. It would be possible to enter d_manage() in rcu-walk mode too, and have
that determine whether to abort or not itself. That would allow the autofs
daemon to continue on in rcu-walk mode.
Note that DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT on a directory should be cleared when it isn't
required as every tranist from that directory will cause d_manage() to be
invoked. It can always be set again when necessary.
==========================
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR AUTOFS
==========================
Autofs currently uses the lookup() inode op and the d_revalidate() dentry op to
trigger the automounting of indirect mounts, and both of these can be called
with i_mutex held.
autofs knows that the i_mutex will be held by the caller in lookup(), and so
can drop it before invoking the daemon - but this isn't so for d_revalidate(),
since the lock is only held on _some_ of the code paths that call it. This
means that autofs can't risk dropping i_mutex from its d_revalidate() function
before it calls the daemon.
The bug could manifest itself as, for example, a process that's trying to
validate an automount dentry that gets made to wait because that dentry is
expired and needs cleaning up:
mkdir S ffffffff8014e05a 0 32580 24956
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff885371fd>] :autofs4:autofs4_wait+0x674/0x897

[<ffffffff80057a2f>] lookup_create+0x46/0x80
[<ffffffff800e6e31>] sys_mkdirat+0x56/0xe4
versus the automount daemon which wants to remove that dentry, but can't
because the normal process is holding the i_mutex lock:
automount D ffffffff8014e05a 0 32581 1 32561
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff80063c3f>] __mutex_lock_slowpath+0x60/0x9b

[<ffffffff8005d229>] tracesys+0x71/0xe0
[<ffffffff8005d28d>] tracesys+0xd5/0xe0
which means that the system is deadlocked.
This patch allows autofs to hold up normal processes whilst the daemon goes
ahead and does things to the dentry tree behind the automouter point without
risking a deadlock as almost no locks are held in d_manage() and none in
d_automount().

VFS: Fix vfsmount overput on simultaneous automount
[Kudos to dhowells for tracking that crap down]
If two processes attempt to cause automounting on the same mountpoint at the
same time, the vfsmount holding the mountpoint will be left with one too few
references on it, causing a BUG when the kernel tries to clean up.
The problem is that lock_mount() drops the caller's reference to the
mountpoint's vfsmount in the case where it finds something already mounted on
the mountpoint as it transits to the mounted filesystem and replaces path->mnt
with the new mountpoint vfsmount.
During a pathwalk, however, we don't take a reference on the vfsmount if it is
the same as the one in the nameidata struct, but do_add_mount() doesn't know
this.
The fix is to make sure we have a ref on the vfsmount of the mountpoint before
calling do_add_mount(). However, if lock_mount() doesn't transit, we're then
left with an extra ref on the mountpoint vfsmount which needs releasing.
We can handle that in follow_managed() by not making assumptions about what
we can and what we cannot get from lookup_mnt() as the current code does.
The callers of follow_managed() expect that reference to path->mnt will be
grabbed iff path->mnt has been changed. follow_managed() and follow_automount()
keep track of whether such reference has been grabbed and assume that it'll
happen in those and only those cases that'll have us return with changed
path->mnt. That assumption is almost correct - it breaks in case of
racing automounts and in even harder to hit race between following a mountpoint
and a couple of mount --move. The thing is, we don't need to make that
assumption at all - after the end of loop in follow_manage() we can check
if path->mnt has ended up unchanged and do mntput() if needed.
The BUG can be reproduced with the following test program:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)

struct stat buf;
pid = fork();
stat(argv[1], &buf);

}

(1) Mount an NFS volume that on the server has something else mounted on a
subdirectory. For instance, I can mount / from my server:
mount warthog:/ /mnt -t nfs4 -r
On the server /data has another filesystem mounted on it, so NFS will see
a change in FSID as it walks down the path, and will mark /mnt/data as
being a mountpoint. This will cause the automount code to be triggered.
!!! Do not look inside the mounted fs at this point !!!
(2) Run the above program on a file within the submount to generate two
simultaneous automount requests:
/tmp/forkstat /mnt/data/testfile
(3) Unmount the automounted submount:
umount /mnt/data
(4) Unmount the original mount:
umount /mnt
At this point the kernel should throw a BUG with something like the
following:
BUG: Dentry ffff880032e3c5c0{i=2,n=} still in use (1) [unmount of nfs4 0:12]
Note that the bug appears on the root dentry of the original mount, not the
mountpoint and not the submount because sys_umount() hasn't got to its final
mntput_no_expire() yet, but this isn't so obvious from the call trace:

Add a dentry op to handle automounting rather than abusing follow_link()
Add a dentry op (d_automount) to handle automounting directories rather than
abusing the follow_link() inode operation. The operation is keyed off a new
dentry flag (DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT).
This also makes it easier to add an AT_ flag to suppress terminal segment
automount during pathwalk and removes the need for the kludge code in the
pathwalk algorithm to handle directories with follow_link() semantics.
The ->d_automount() dentry operation:
struct vfsmount *(*d_automount)(struct path *mountpoint);
takes a pointer to the directory to be mounted upon, which is expected to
provide sufficient data to determine what should be mounted. If successful, it
should return the vfsmount struct it creates (which it should also have added
to the namespace using do_add_mount() or similar). If there's a collision with
another automount attempt, NULL should be returned. If the directory specified
by the parameter should be used directly rather than being mounted upon,
-EISDIR should be returned. In any other case, an error code should be
returned.
The ->d_automount() operation is called with no locks held and may sleep. At
this point the pathwalk algorithm will be in ref-walk mode.
Within fs/namei.c itself, a new pathwalk subroutine (follow_automount()) is
added to handle mountpoints. It will return -EREMOTE if the automount flag was
set, but no d_automount() op was supplied, -ELOOP if we've encountered too many
symlinks or mountpoints, -EISDIR if the walk point should be used without
mounting and 0 if successful. The path will be updated to point to the mounted
filesystem if a successful automount took place.
__follow_mount() is replaced by follow_managed() which is more generic
(especially with the patch that adds ->d_manage()). This handles transits from
directories during pathwalk, including automounting and skipping over
mountpoints (and holding processes with the next patch).
__follow_mount_rcu() will jump out of RCU-walk mode if it encounters an
automount point with nothing mounted on it.
follow_dotdot*() does not handle automounts as you don't want to trigger them
whilst following "..".
I've also extracted the mount/don't-mount logic from autofs4 and included it
here. It makes the mount go ahead anyway if someone calls open() or creat(),
tries to traverse the directory, tries to chdir/chroot/etc. into the directory,
or sticks a '/' on the end of the pathname. If they do a stat(), however,
they'll only trigger the automount if they didn't also say O_NOFOLLOW.
I've also added an inode flag (S_AUTOMOUNT) so that filesystems can mark their
inodes as automount points. This flag is automatically propagated to the
dentry as DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT by __d_instantiate(). This saves NFS and could
save AFS a private flag bit apiece, but is not strictly necessary. It would be
preferable to do the propagation in d_set_d_op(), but that doesn't normally
have access to the inode.
[AV: fixed breakage in case if __follow_mount_rcu() fails and nameidata_drop_rcu()
succeeds in RCU case of do_lookup(); we need to fall through to non-RCU case after
that, rather than just returning with ungrabbed *path]

VFS: Fix vfsmount overput on simultaneous automount
[Kudos to dhowells for tracking that crap down]
If two processes attempt to cause automounting on the same mountpoint at the
same time, the vfsmount holding the mountpoint will be left with one too few
references on it, causing a BUG when the kernel tries to clean up.
The problem is that lock_mount() drops the caller's reference to the
mountpoint's vfsmount in the case where it finds something already mounted on
the mountpoint as it transits to the mounted filesystem and replaces path->mnt
with the new mountpoint vfsmount.
During a pathwalk, however, we don't take a reference on the vfsmount if it is
the same as the one in the nameidata struct, but do_add_mount() doesn't know
this.
The fix is to make sure we have a ref on the vfsmount of the mountpoint before
calling do_add_mount(). However, if lock_mount() doesn't transit, we're then
left with an extra ref on the mountpoint vfsmount which needs releasing.
We can handle that in follow_managed() by not making assumptions about what
we can and what we cannot get from lookup_mnt() as the current code does.
The callers of follow_managed() expect that reference to path->mnt will be
grabbed iff path->mnt has been changed. follow_managed() and follow_automount()
keep track of whether such reference has been grabbed and assume that it'll
happen in those and only those cases that'll have us return with changed
path->mnt. That assumption is almost correct - it breaks in case of
racing automounts and in even harder to hit race between following a mountpoint
and a couple of mount --move. The thing is, we don't need to make that
assumption at all - after the end of loop in follow_manage() we can check
if path->mnt has ended up unchanged and do mntput() if needed.
The BUG can be reproduced with the following test program:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int pid, ws;
struct stat buf;
pid = fork();
stat(argv[1], &buf);
if (pid > 0) wait(&ws);
return 0;
}
and the following procedure:
(1) Mount an NFS volume that on the server has something else mounted on a
subdirectory. For instance, I can mount / from my server:
mount warthog:/ /mnt -t nfs4 -r
On the server /data has another filesystem mounted on it, so NFS will see
a change in FSID as it walks down the path, and will mark /mnt/data as
being a mountpoint. This will cause the automount code to be triggered.
!!! Do not look inside the mounted fs at this point !!!
(2) Run the above program on a file within the submount to generate two
simultaneous automount requests:
/tmp/forkstat /mnt/data/testfile

umount /mnt/data

umount /mnt

Add a dentry op to allow processes to be held during pathwalk transit
Add a dentry op (d_manage) to permit a filesystem to hold a process and make it
sleep when it tries to transit away from one of that filesystem's directories
during a pathwalk. The operation is keyed off a new dentry flag
(DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT).
The filesystem is allowed to be selective about which processes it holds and
which it permits to continue on or prohibits from transiting from each flagged
directory. This will allow autofs to hold up client processes whilst letting
its userspace daemon through to maintain the directory or the stuff behind it
or mounted upon it.
The ->d_manage() dentry operation:
int (*d_manage)(struct path *path, bool mounting_here);
takes a pointer to the directory about to be transited away from and a flag
indicating whether the transit is undertaken by do_add_mount() or
do_move_mount() skipping through a pile of filesystems mounted on a mountpoint.
It should return 0 if successful and to let the process continue on its way;
-EISDIR to prohibit the caller from skipping to overmounted filesystems or
automounting, and to use this directory; or some other error code to return to
the user.
->d_manage() is called with namespace_sem writelocked if mounting_here is true
and no other locks held, so it may sleep. However, if mounting_here is true,
it may not initiate or wait for a mount or unmount upon the parameter
directory, even if the act is actually performed by userspace.
Within fs/namei.c, follow_managed() is extended to check with d_manage() first
on each managed directory, before transiting away from it or attempting to
automount upon it.
follow_down() is renamed follow_down_one() and should only be used where the
filesystem deliberately intends to avoid management steps (e.g. autofs).
A new follow_down() is added that incorporates the loop done by all other
callers of follow_down() (do_add/move_mount(), autofs and NFSD; whilst AFS, NFS
and CIFS do use it, their use is removed by converting them to use
d_automount()). The new follow_down() calls d_manage() as appropriate. It
also takes an extra parameter to indicate if it is being called from mount code
(with namespace_sem writelocked) which it passes to d_manage(). follow_down()
ignores automount points so that it can be used to mount on them.
__follow_mount_rcu() is made to abort rcu-walk mode if it hits a directory with
DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT set on the basis that we're probably going to have to
sleep. It would be possible to enter d_manage() in rcu-walk mode too, and have
that determine whether to abort or not itself. That would allow the autofs
daemon to continue on in rcu-walk mode.
Note that DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT on a directory should be cleared when it isn't
required as every tranist from that directory will cause d_manage() to be
invoked. It can always be set again when necessary.
==========================
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR AUTOFS
==========================
Autofs currently uses the lookup() inode op and the d_revalidate() dentry op to
trigger the automounting of indirect mounts, and both of these can be called
with i_mutex held.
autofs knows that the i_mutex will be held by the caller in lookup(), and so
can drop it before invoking the daemon - but this isn't so for d_revalidate(),
since the lock is only held on _some_ of the code paths that call it. This
means that autofs can't risk dropping i_mutex from its d_revalidate() function
before it calls the daemon.
The bug could manifest itself as, for example, a process that's trying to
validate an automount dentry that gets made to wait because that dentry is
expired and needs cleaning up:
mkdir S ffffffff8014e05a 0 32580 24956

[<ffffffff80057a2f>] lookup_create+0x46/0x80
[<ffffffff800e6e31>] sys_mkdirat+0x56/0xe4
versus the automount daemon which wants to remove that dentry, but can't
because the normal process is holding the i_mutex lock:
automount D ffffffff8014e05a 0 32581 1 32561
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff80063c3f>] __mutex_lock_slowpath+0x60/0x9b

[<ffffffff8005d229>] tracesys+0x71/0xe0
[<ffffffff8005d28d>] tracesys+0xd5/0xe0
which means that the system is deadlocked.
This patch allows autofs to hold up normal processes whilst the daemon goes
ahead and does things to the dentry tree behind the automouter point without
risking a deadlock as almost no locks are held in d_manage() and none in
d_automount().

VFS: Fix vfsmount overput on simultaneous automount

The fix is to make sure we have a ref on the vfsmount of the mountpoint before
calling do_add_mount(). However, if lock_mount() doesn't transit, we're then
left with an extra ref on the mountpoint vfsmount which needs releasing.
We can handle that in follow_managed() by not making assumptions about what
we can and what we cannot get from lookup_mnt() as the current code does.
The callers of follow_managed() expect that reference to path->mnt will be
grabbed iff path->mnt has been changed. follow_managed() and follow_automount()
keep track of whether such reference has been grabbed and assume that it'll
happen in those and only those cases that'll have us return with changed
path->mnt. That assumption is almost correct - it breaks in case of
racing automounts and in even harder to hit race between following a mountpoint
and a couple of mount --move. The thing is, we don't need to make that
assumption at all - after the end of loop in follow_manage() we can check
if path->mnt has ended up unchanged and do mntput() if needed.
The BUG can be reproduced with the following test program:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int pid, ws;
struct stat buf;
pid = fork();
stat(argv[1], &buf);
if (pid > 0) wait(&ws);
return 0;
}
and the following procedure:
(1) Mount an NFS volume that on the server has something else mounted on a
subdirectory. For instance, I can mount / from my server:
mount warthog:/ /mnt -t nfs4 -r
On the server /data has another filesystem mounted on it, so NFS will see
a change in FSID as it walks down the path, and will mark /mnt/data as
being a mountpoint. This will cause the automount code to be triggered.
!!! Do not look inside the mounted fs at this point !!!
(2) Run the above program on a file within the submount to generate two
simultaneous automount requests:
/tmp/forkstat /mnt/data/testfile
(3) Unmount the automounted submount:
umount /mnt/data
(4) Unmount the original mount:
umount /mnt
At this point the kernel should throw a BUG with something like the
following:
BUG: Dentry ffff880032e3c5c0{i=2,n=} still in use (1) [unmount of nfs4 0:12]
Note that the bug appears on the root dentry of the original mount, not the
mountpoint and not the submount because sys_umount() hasn't got to its final
mntput_no_expire() yet, but this isn't so obvious from the call trace:

Add a dentry op to allow processes to be held during pathwalk transit
Add a dentry op (d_manage) to permit a filesystem to hold a process and make it
sleep when it tries to transit away from one of that filesystem's directories
during a pathwalk. The operation is keyed off a new dentry flag
(DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT).
The filesystem is allowed to be selective about which processes it holds and
which it permits to continue on or prohibits from transiting from each flagged
directory. This will allow autofs to hold up client processes whilst letting
its userspace daemon through to maintain the directory or the stuff behind it
or mounted upon it.
The ->d_manage() dentry operation:
int (*d_manage)(struct path *path, bool mounting_here);
takes a pointer to the directory about to be transited away from and a flag
indicating whether the transit is undertaken by do_add_mount() or
do_move_mount() skipping through a pile of filesystems mounted on a mountpoint.
It should return 0 if successful and to let the process continue on its way;
-EISDIR to prohibit the caller from skipping to overmounted filesystems or
automounting, and to use this directory; or some other error code to return to
the user.
->d_manage() is called with namespace_sem writelocked if mounting_here is true
and no other locks held, so it may sleep. However, if mounting_here is true,
it may not initiate or wait for a mount or unmount upon the parameter
directory, even if the act is actually performed by userspace.
Within fs/namei.c, follow_managed() is extended to check with d_manage() first
on each managed directory, before transiting away from it or attempting to
automount upon it.
follow_down() is renamed follow_down_one() and should only be used where the
filesystem deliberately intends to avoid management steps (e.g. autofs).
A new follow_down() is added that incorporates the loop done by all other
callers of follow_down() (do_add/move_mount(), autofs and NFSD; whilst AFS, NFS
and CIFS do use it, their use is removed by converting them to use
d_automount()). The new follow_down() calls d_manage() as appropriate. It
also takes an extra parameter to indicate if it is being called from mount code
(with namespace_sem writelocked) which it passes to d_manage(). follow_down()
ignores automount points so that it can be used to mount on them.
__follow_mount_rcu() is made to abort rcu-walk mode if it hits a directory with
DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT set on the basis that we're probably going to have to
sleep. It would be possible to enter d_manage() in rcu-walk mode too, and have
that determine whether to abort or not itself. That would allow the autofs
daemon to continue on in rcu-walk mode.
Note that DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT on a directory should be cleared when it isn't
required as every tranist from that directory will cause d_manage() to be
invoked. It can always be set again when necessary.
==========================
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR AUTOFS
==========================
Autofs currently uses the lookup() inode op and the d_revalidate() dentry op to
trigger the automounting of indirect mounts, and both of these can be called
with i_mutex held.
autofs knows that the i_mutex will be held by the caller in lookup(), and so
can drop it before invoking the daemon - but this isn't so for d_revalidate(),
since the lock is only held on _some_ of the code paths that call it. This
means that autofs can't risk dropping i_mutex from its d_revalidate() function
before it calls the daemon.
The bug could manifest itself as, for example, a process that's trying to
validate an automount dentry that gets made to wait because that dentry is
expired and needs cleaning up:
mkdir S ffffffff8014e05a 0 32580 24956
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff885371fd>] :autofs4:autofs4_wait+0x674/0x897
[<ffffffff80127f7d>] avc_has_perm+0x46/0x58
[<ffffffff8009fdcf>] autoremove_wake_function+0x0/0x2e
[<ffffffff88537be6>] :autofs4:autofs4_expire_wait+0x41/0x6b

[<ffffffff80057a2f>] lookup_create+0x46/0x80
[<ffffffff800e6e31>] sys_mkdirat+0x56/0xe4
versus the automount daemon which wants to remove that dentry, but can't
because the normal process is holding the i_mutex lock:
automount D ffffffff8014e05a 0 32581 1 32561
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff80063c3f>] __mutex_lock_slowpath+0x60/0x9b
[<ffffffff8000ccf1>] do_path_lookup+0x2ca/0x2f1
[<ffffffff80063c89>] .text.lock.mutex+0xf/0x14

[<ffffffff8005d229>] tracesys+0x71/0xe0
[<ffffffff8005d28d>] tracesys+0xd5/0xe0
which means that the system is deadlocked.
This patch allows autofs to hold up normal processes whilst the daemon goes
ahead and does things to the dentry tree behind the automouter point without
risking a deadlock as almost no locks are held in d_manage() and none in
d_automount().

Add a dentry op to handle automounting rather than abusing follow_link()
Add a dentry op (d_automount) to handle automounting directories rather than
abusing the follow_link() inode operation. The operation is keyed off a new
dentry flag (DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT).
This also makes it easier to add an AT_ flag to suppress terminal segment
automount during pathwalk and removes the need for the kludge code in the
pathwalk algorithm to handle directories with follow_link() semantics.
The ->d_automount() dentry operation:
struct vfsmount *(*d_automount)(struct path *mountpoint);
takes a pointer to the directory to be mounted upon, which is expected to
provide sufficient data to determine what should be mounted. If successful, it
should return the vfsmount struct it creates (which it should also have added
to the namespace using do_add_mount() or similar). If there's a collision with
another automount attempt, NULL should be returned. If the directory specified
by the parameter should be used directly rather than being mounted upon,
-EISDIR should be returned. In any other case, an error code should be
returned.
The ->d_automount() operation is called with no locks held and may sleep. At
this point the pathwalk algorithm will be in ref-walk mode.
Within fs/namei.c itself, a new pathwalk subroutine (follow_automount()) is
added to handle mountpoints. It will return -EREMOTE if the automount flag was
set, but no d_automount() op was supplied, -ELOOP if we've encountered too many
symlinks or mountpoints, -EISDIR if the walk point should be used without
mounting and 0 if successful. The path will be updated to point to the mounted
filesystem if a successful automount took place.
__follow_mount() is replaced by follow_managed() which is more generic
(especially with the patch that adds ->d_manage()). This handles transits from
directories during pathwalk, including automounting and skipping over
mountpoints (and holding processes with the next patch).
__follow_mount_rcu() will jump out of RCU-walk mode if it encounters an
automount point with nothing mounted on it.
follow_dotdot*() does not handle automounts as you don't want to trigger them
whilst following "..".
I've also extracted the mount/don't-mount logic from autofs4 and included it
here. It makes the mount go ahead anyway if someone calls open() or creat(),
tries to traverse the directory, tries to chdir/chroot/etc. into the directory,
or sticks a '/' on the end of the pathname. If they do a stat(), however,
they'll only trigger the automount if they didn't also say O_NOFOLLOW.
I've also added an inode flag (S_AUTOMOUNT) so that filesystems can mark their
inodes as automount points. This flag is automatically propagated to the
dentry as DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT by __d_instantiate(). This saves NFS and could
save AFS a private flag bit apiece, but is not strictly necessary. It would be
preferable to do the propagation in d_set_d_op(), but that doesn't normally
have access to the inode.
[AV: fixed breakage in case if __follow_mount_rcu() fails and nameidata_drop_rcu()
succeeds in RCU case of do_lookup(); we need to fall through to non-RCU case after
that, rather than just returning with ungrabbed *path]

VFS: Fix vfsmount overput on simultaneous automount
[Kudos to dhowells for tracking that crap down]
If two processes attempt to cause automounting on the same mountpoint at the
same time, the vfsmount holding the mountpoint will be left with one too few
references on it, causing a BUG when the kernel tries to clean up.
The problem is that lock_mount() drops the caller's reference to the
mountpoint's vfsmount in the case where it finds something already mounted on
the mountpoint as it transits to the mounted filesystem and replaces path->mnt
with the new mountpoint vfsmount.
During a pathwalk, however, we don't take a reference on the vfsmount if it is
the same as the one in the nameidata struct, but do_add_mount() doesn't know
this.
The fix is to make sure we have a ref on the vfsmount of the mountpoint before
calling do_add_mount(). However, if lock_mount() doesn't transit, we're then
left with an extra ref on the mountpoint vfsmount which needs releasing.
We can handle that in follow_managed() by not making assumptions about what
we can and what we cannot get from lookup_mnt() as the current code does.
The callers of follow_managed() expect that reference to path->mnt will be
grabbed iff path->mnt has been changed. follow_managed() and follow_automount()
keep track of whether such reference has been grabbed and assume that it'll
happen in those and only those cases that'll have us return with changed

Add a dentry op to allow processes to be held during pathwalk transit
Add a dentry op (d_manage) to permit a filesystem to hold a process and make it
sleep when it tries to transit away from one of that filesystem's directories
during a pathwalk. The operation is keyed off a new dentry flag
(DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT).
The filesystem is allowed to be selective about which processes it holds and
which it permits to continue on or prohibits from transiting from each flagged
directory. This will allow autofs to hold up client processes whilst letting
its userspace daemon through to maintain the directory or the stuff behind it
or mounted upon it.
The ->d_manage() dentry operation:
int (*d_manage)(struct path *path, bool mounting_here);
takes a pointer to the directory about to be transited away from and a flag
indicating whether the transit is undertaken by do_add_mount() or
do_move_mount() skipping through a pile of filesystems mounted on a mountpoint.
It should return 0 if successful and to let the process continue on its way;
-EISDIR to prohibit the caller from skipping to overmounted filesystems or
automounting, and to use this directory; or some other error code to return to
the user.
->d_manage() is called with namespace_sem writelocked if mounting_here is true
and no other locks held, so it may sleep. However, if mounting_here is true,
it may not initiate or wait for a mount or unmount upon the parameter
directory, even if the act is actually performed by userspace.
Within fs/namei.c, follow_managed() is extended to check with d_manage() first
on each managed directory, before transiting away from it or attempting to
automount upon it.
follow_down() is renamed follow_down_one() and should only be used where the
filesystem deliberately intends to avoid management steps (e.g. autofs).
A new follow_down() is added that incorporates the loop done by all other
callers of follow_down() (do_add/move_mount(), autofs and NFSD; whilst AFS, NFS
and CIFS do use it, their use is removed by converting them to use
d_automount()). The new follow_down() calls d_manage() as appropriate. It
also takes an extra parameter to indicate if it is being called from mount code
(with namespace_sem writelocked) which it passes to d_manage(). follow_down()
ignores automount points so that it can be used to mount on them.
__follow_mount_rcu() is made to abort rcu-walk mode if it hits a directory with
DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT set on the basis that we're probably going to have to
sleep. It would be possible to enter d_manage() in rcu-walk mode too, and have
that determine whether to abort or not itself. That would allow the autofs
daemon to continue on in rcu-walk mode.
Note that DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT on a directory should be cleared when it isn't
required as every tranist from that directory will cause d_manage() to be
invoked. It can always be set again when necessary.
==========================
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR AUTOFS
==========================
Autofs currently uses the lookup() inode op and the d_revalidate() dentry op to
trigger the automounting of indirect mounts, and both of these can be called
with i_mutex held.
autofs knows that the i_mutex will be held by the caller in lookup(), and so
can drop it before invoking the daemon - but this isn't so for d_revalidate(),
since the lock is only held on _some_ of the code paths that call it. This
means that autofs can't risk dropping i_mutex from its d_revalidate() function
before it calls the daemon.
The bug could manifest itself as, for example, a process that's trying to
validate an automount dentry that gets made to wait because that dentry is
expired and needs cleaning up:
mkdir S ffffffff8014e05a 0 32580 24956
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff885371fd>] :autofs4:autofs4_wait+0x674/0x897

[<ffffffff80057a2f>] lookup_create+0x46/0x80
[<ffffffff800e6e31>] sys_mkdirat+0x56/0xe4
versus the automount daemon which wants to remove that dentry, but can't
because the normal process is holding the i_mutex lock:
automount D ffffffff8014e05a 0 32581 1 32561
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff80063c3f>] __mutex_lock_slowpath+0x60/0x9b

[<ffffffff8005d229>] tracesys+0x71/0xe0
[<ffffffff8005d28d>] tracesys+0xd5/0xe0
which means that the system is deadlocked.
This patch allows autofs to hold up normal processes whilst the daemon goes
ahead and does things to the dentry tree behind the automouter point without
risking a deadlock as almost no locks are held in d_manage() and none in
d_automount().

Add a dentry op to handle automounting rather than abusing follow_link()
Add a dentry op (d_automount) to handle automounting directories rather than
abusing the follow_link() inode operation. The operation is keyed off a new
dentry flag (DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT).
This also makes it easier to add an AT_ flag to suppress terminal segment
automount during pathwalk and removes the need for the kludge code in the
pathwalk algorithm to handle directories with follow_link() semantics.
The ->d_automount() dentry operation:
struct vfsmount *(*d_automount)(struct path *mountpoint);
takes a pointer to the directory to be mounted upon, which is expected to
provide sufficient data to determine what should be mounted. If successful, it
should return the vfsmount struct it creates (which it should also have added
to the namespace using do_add_mount() or similar). If there's a collision with
another automount attempt, NULL should be returned. If the directory specified
by the parameter should be used directly rather than being mounted upon,
-EISDIR should be returned. In any other case, an error code should be
returned.
The ->d_automount() operation is called with no locks held and may sleep. At
this point the pathwalk algorithm will be in ref-walk mode.
Within fs/namei.c itself, a new pathwalk subroutine (follow_automount()) is
added to handle mountpoints. It will return -EREMOTE if the automount flag was
set, but no d_automount() op was supplied, -ELOOP if we've encountered too many
symlinks or mountpoints, -EISDIR if the walk point should be used without
mounting and 0 if successful. The path will be updated to point to the mounted
filesystem if a successful automount took place.
__follow_mount() is replaced by follow_managed() which is more generic
(especially with the patch that adds ->d_manage()). This handles transits from
directories during pathwalk, including automounting and skipping over
mountpoints (and holding processes with the next patch).
__follow_mount_rcu() will jump out of RCU-walk mode if it encounters an
automount point with nothing mounted on it.
follow_dotdot*() does not handle automounts as you don't want to trigger them
whilst following "..".
I've also extracted the mount/don't-mount logic from autofs4 and included it
here. It makes the mount go ahead anyway if someone calls open() or creat(),
tries to traverse the directory, tries to chdir/chroot/etc. into the directory,
or sticks a '/' on the end of the pathname. If they do a stat(), however,
they'll only trigger the automount if they didn't also say O_NOFOLLOW.
I've also added an inode flag (S_AUTOMOUNT) so that filesystems can mark their
inodes as automount points. This flag is automatically propagated to the
dentry as DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT by __d_instantiate(). This saves NFS and could
save AFS a private flag bit apiece, but is not strictly necessary. It would be
preferable to do the propagation in d_set_d_op(), but that doesn't normally
have access to the inode.
[AV: fixed breakage in case if __follow_mount_rcu() fails and nameidata_drop_rcu()
succeeds in RCU case of do_lookup(); we need to fall through to non-RCU case after
that, rather than just returning with ungrabbed *path]

Add a dentry op to handle automounting rather than abusing follow_link()
Add a dentry op (d_automount) to handle automounting directories rather than
abusing the follow_link() inode operation. The operation is keyed off a new
dentry flag (DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT).
This also makes it easier to add an AT_ flag to suppress terminal segment
automount during pathwalk and removes the need for the kludge code in the
pathwalk algorithm to handle directories with follow_link() semantics.
The ->d_automount() dentry operation:
struct vfsmount *(*d_automount)(struct path *mountpoint);
takes a pointer to the directory to be mounted upon, which is expected to
provide sufficient data to determine what should be mounted. If successful, it
should return the vfsmount struct it creates (which it should also have added
to the namespace using do_add_mount() or similar). If there's a collision with
another automount attempt, NULL should be returned. If the directory specified
by the parameter should be used directly rather than being mounted upon,
-EISDIR should be returned. In any other case, an error code should be
returned.
The ->d_automount() operation is called with no locks held and may sleep. At
this point the pathwalk algorithm will be in ref-walk mode.
Within fs/namei.c itself, a new pathwalk subroutine (follow_automount()) is
added to handle mountpoints. It will return -EREMOTE if the automount flag was
set, but no d_automount() op was supplied, -ELOOP if we've encountered too many
symlinks or mountpoints, -EISDIR if the walk point should be used without
mounting and 0 if successful. The path will be updated to point to the mounted
filesystem if a successful automount took place.
__follow_mount() is replaced by follow_managed() which is more generic
(especially with the patch that adds ->d_manage()). This handles transits from
directories during pathwalk, including automounting and skipping over
mountpoints (and holding processes with the next patch).
__follow_mount_rcu() will jump out of RCU-walk mode if it encounters an
automount point with nothing mounted on it.
follow_dotdot*() does not handle automounts as you don't want to trigger them
whilst following "..".
I've also extracted the mount/don't-mount logic from autofs4 and included it
here. It makes the mount go ahead anyway if someone calls open() or creat(),
tries to traverse the directory, tries to chdir/chroot/etc. into the directory,
or sticks a '/' on the end of the pathname. If they do a stat(), however,
they'll only trigger the automount if they didn't also say O_NOFOLLOW.
I've also added an inode flag (S_AUTOMOUNT) so that filesystems can mark their
inodes as automount points. This flag is automatically propagated to the
dentry as DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT by __d_instantiate(). This saves NFS and could
save AFS a private flag bit apiece, but is not strictly necessary. It would be
preferable to do the propagation in d_set_d_op(), but that doesn't normally
have access to the inode.
[AV: fixed breakage in case if __follow_mount_rcu() fails and nameidata_drop_rcu()
succeeds in RCU case of do_lookup(); we need to fall through to non-RCU case after
that, rather than just returning with ungrabbed *path]

fs: rcu-walk for path lookup
Perform common cases of path lookups without any stores or locking in the
ancestor dentry elements. This is called rcu-walk, as opposed to the current
algorithm which is a refcount based walk, or ref-walk.
This results in far fewer atomic operations on every path element,
significantly improving path lookup performance. It also avoids cacheline
bouncing on common dentries, significantly improving scalability.
The overall design is like this:
* LOOKUP_RCU is set in nd->flags, which distinguishes rcu-walk from ref-walk.
* Take the RCU lock for the entire path walk, starting with the acquiring
of the starting path (eg. root/cwd/fd-path). So now dentry refcounts are
not required for dentry persistence.
* synchronize_rcu is called when unregistering a filesystem, so we can
access d_ops and i_ops during rcu-walk.
* Similarly take the vfsmount lock for the entire path walk. So now mnt
refcounts are not required for persistence. Also we are free to perform mount
lookups, and to assume dentry mount points and mount roots are stable up and
down the path.
* Have a per-dentry seqlock to protect the dentry name, parent, and inode,
so we can load this tuple atomically, and also check whether any of its
members have changed.
* Dentry lookups (based on parent, candidate string tuple) recheck the parent
sequence after the child is found in case anything changed in the parent
during the path walk.
* inode is also RCU protected so we can load d_inode and use the inode for
limited things.
* i_mode, i_uid, i_gid can be tested for exec permissions during path walk.
* i_op can be loaded.
When we reach the destination dentry, we lock it, recheck lookup sequence,
and increment its refcount and mountpoint refcount. RCU and vfsmount locks
are dropped. This is termed "dropping rcu-walk". If the dentry refcount does
not match, we can not drop rcu-walk gracefully at the current point in the
lokup, so instead return -ECHILD (for want of a better errno). This signals the
path walking code to re-do the entire lookup with a ref-walk.
Aside from the final dentry, there are other situations that may be encounted
where we cannot continue rcu-walk. In that case, we drop rcu-walk (ie. take
a reference on the last good dentry) and continue with a ref-walk. Again, if
we can drop rcu-walk gracefully, we return -ECHILD and do the whole lookup
using ref-walk. But it is very important that we can continue with ref-walk
for most cases, particularly to avoid the overhead of double lookups, and to
gain the scalability advantages on common path elements (like cwd and root).
The cases where rcu-walk cannot continue are:
* NULL dentry (ie. any uncached path element)
* parent with d_inode->i_op->permission or ACLs
* dentries with d_revalidate
* Following links
In future patches, permission checks and d_revalidate become rcu-walk aware. It
may be possible eventually to make following links rcu-walk aware.
Uncached path elements will always require dropping to ref-walk mode, at the
very least because i_mutex needs to be grabbed, and objects allocated.

during a pathwalk. The operation is keyed off a new dentry flag
(DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT).
The filesystem is allowed to be selective about which processes it holds and
which it permits to continue on or prohibits from transiting from each flagged
directory. This will allow autofs to hold up client processes whilst letting
its userspace daemon through to maintain the directory or the stuff behind it
or mounted upon it.
The ->d_manage() dentry operation:
int (*d_manage)(struct path *path, bool mounting_here);
takes a pointer to the directory about to be transited away from and a flag
indicating whether the transit is undertaken by do_add_mount() or
do_move_mount() skipping through a pile of filesystems mounted on a mountpoint.
It should return 0 if successful and to let the process continue on its way;
-EISDIR to prohibit the caller from skipping to overmounted filesystems or
automounting, and to use this directory; or some other error code to return to
the user.
->d_manage() is called with namespace_sem writelocked if mounting_here is true
and no other locks held, so it may sleep. However, if mounting_here is true,
it may not initiate or wait for a mount or unmount upon the parameter
directory, even if the act is actually performed by userspace.
Within fs/namei.c, follow_managed() is extended to check with d_manage() first
on each managed directory, before transiting away from it or attempting to
automount upon it.
follow_down() is renamed follow_down_one() and should only be used where the
filesystem deliberately intends to avoid management steps (e.g. autofs).
A new follow_down() is added that incorporates the loop done by all other
callers of follow_down() (do_add/move_mount(), autofs and NFSD; whilst AFS, NFS
and CIFS do use it, their use is removed by converting them to use
d_automount()). The new follow_down() calls d_manage() as appropriate. It
also takes an extra parameter to indicate if it is being called from mount code
(with namespace_sem writelocked) which it passes to d_manage(). follow_down()
ignores automount points so that it can be used to mount on them.
__follow_mount_rcu() is made to abort rcu-walk mode if it hits a directory with
DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT set on the basis that we're probably going to have to
sleep. It would be possible to enter d_manage() in rcu-walk mode too, and have
that determine whether to abort or not itself. That would allow the autofs
daemon to continue on in rcu-walk mode.
Note that DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT on a directory should be cleared when it isn't
required as every tranist from that directory will cause d_manage() to be
invoked. It can always be set again when necessary.
==========================
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR AUTOFS
==========================
Autofs currently uses the lookup() inode op and the d_revalidate() dentry op to
trigger the automounting of indirect mounts, and both of these can be called
with i_mutex held.
autofs knows that the i_mutex will be held by the caller in lookup(), and so
can drop it before invoking the daemon - but this isn't so for d_revalidate(),
since the lock is only held on _some_ of the code paths that call it. This
means that autofs can't risk dropping i_mutex from its d_revalidate() function
before it calls the daemon.
The bug could manifest itself as, for example, a process that's trying to
validate an automount dentry that gets made to wait because that dentry is
expired and needs cleaning up:
mkdir S ffffffff8014e05a 0 32580 24956

versus the automount daemon which wants to remove that dentry, but can't
because the normal process is holding the i_mutex lock:
automount D ffffffff8014e05a 0 32581 1 32561
Call Trace:

which means that the system is deadlocked.
This patch allows autofs to hold up normal processes whilst the daemon goes
ahead and does things to the dentry tree behind the automouter point without
risking a deadlock as almost no locks are held in d_manage() and none in
d_automount().

Add a dentry op to handle automounting rather than abusing follow_link()
Add a dentry op (d_automount) to handle automounting directories rather than
abusing the follow_link() inode operation. The operation is keyed off a new
dentry flag (DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT).
This also makes it easier to add an AT_ flag to suppress terminal segment
automount during pathwalk and removes the need for the kludge code in the
pathwalk algorithm to handle directories with follow_link() semantics.
The ->d_automount() dentry operation:
struct vfsmount *(*d_automount)(struct path *mountpoint);
takes a pointer to the directory to be mounted upon, which is expected to
provide sufficient data to determine what should be mounted. If successful, it
should return the vfsmount struct it creates (which it should also have added
to the namespace using do_add_mount() or similar). If there's a collision with
another automount attempt, NULL should be returned. If the directory specified
by the parameter should be used directly rather than being mounted upon,
-EISDIR should be returned. In any other case, an error code should be
returned.
The ->d_automount() operation is called with no locks held and may sleep. At
this point the pathwalk algorithm will be in ref-walk mode.
Within fs/namei.c itself, a new pathwalk subroutine (follow_automount()) is
added to handle mountpoints. It will return -EREMOTE if the automount flag was
set, but no d_automount() op was supplied, -ELOOP if we've encountered too many
symlinks or mountpoints, -EISDIR if the walk point should be used without
mounting and 0 if successful. The path will be updated to point to the mounted
filesystem if a successful automount took place.
__follow_mount() is replaced by follow_managed() which is more generic
(especially with the patch that adds ->d_manage()). This handles transits from
directories during pathwalk, including automounting and skipping over
mountpoints (and holding processes with the next patch).
__follow_mount_rcu() will jump out of RCU-walk mode if it encounters an
automount point with nothing mounted on it.
follow_dotdot*() does not handle automounts as you don't want to trigger them
whilst following "..".
I've also extracted the mount/don't-mount logic from autofs4 and included it
here. It makes the mount go ahead anyway if someone calls open() or creat(),
tries to traverse the directory, tries to chdir/chroot/etc. into the directory,
or sticks a '/' on the end of the pathname. If they do a stat(), however,
they'll only trigger the automount if they didn't also say O_NOFOLLOW.
I've also added an inode flag (S_AUTOMOUNT) so that filesystems can mark their
inodes as automount points. This flag is automatically propagated to the
dentry as DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT by __d_instantiate(). This saves NFS and could
save AFS a private flag bit apiece, but is not strictly necessary. It would be
preferable to do the propagation in d_set_d_op(), but that doesn't normally
have access to the inode.
[AV: fixed breakage in case if __follow_mount_rcu() fails and nameidata_drop_rcu()
succeeds in RCU case of do_lookup(); we need to fall through to non-RCU case after
that, rather than just returning with ungrabbed *path]

fs: rcu-walk for path lookup
Perform common cases of path lookups without any stores or locking in the
ancestor dentry elements. This is called rcu-walk, as opposed to the current
algorithm which is a refcount based walk, or ref-walk.
This results in far fewer atomic operations on every path element,
significantly improving path lookup performance. It also avoids cacheline
bouncing on common dentries, significantly improving scalability.
The overall design is like this:
* LOOKUP_RCU is set in nd->flags, which distinguishes rcu-walk from ref-walk.
* Take the RCU lock for the entire path walk, starting with the acquiring
of the starting path (eg. root/cwd/fd-path). So now dentry refcounts are
not required for dentry persistence.
* synchronize_rcu is called when unregistering a filesystem, so we can
access d_ops and i_ops during rcu-walk.
* Similarly take the vfsmount lock for the entire path walk. So now mnt
refcounts are not required for persistence. Also we are free to perform mount
lookups, and to assume dentry mount points and mount roots are stable up and
down the path.
* Have a per-dentry seqlock to protect the dentry name, parent, and inode,
so we can load this tuple atomically, and also check whether any of its
members have changed.
* Dentry lookups (based on parent, candidate string tuple) recheck the parent
sequence after the child is found in case anything changed in the parent
during the path walk.
* inode is also RCU protected so we can load d_inode and use the inode for
limited things.
* i_mode, i_uid, i_gid can be tested for exec permissions during path walk.
* i_op can be loaded.
When we reach the destination dentry, we lock it, recheck lookup sequence,
and increment its refcount and mountpoint refcount. RCU and vfsmount locks
are dropped. This is termed "dropping rcu-walk". If the dentry refcount does
not match, we can not drop rcu-walk gracefully at the current point in the
lokup, so instead return -ECHILD (for want of a better errno). This signals the
path walking code to re-do the entire lookup with a ref-walk.
Aside from the final dentry, there are other situations that may be encounted
where we cannot continue rcu-walk. In that case, we drop rcu-walk (ie. take
a reference on the last good dentry) and continue with a ref-walk. Again, if
we can drop rcu-walk gracefully, we return -ECHILD and do the whole lookup
using ref-walk. But it is very important that we can continue with ref-walk
for most cases, particularly to avoid the overhead of double lookups, and to
gain the scalability advantages on common path elements (like cwd and root).
The cases where rcu-walk cannot continue are:
* NULL dentry (ie. any uncached path element)
* parent with d_inode->i_op->permission or ACLs
* dentries with d_revalidate
* Following links
In future patches, permission checks and d_revalidate become rcu-walk aware. It
may be possible eventually to make following links rcu-walk aware.
Uncached path elements will always require dropping to ref-walk mode, at the
very least because i_mutex needs to be grabbed, and objects allocated.

fs: rcu-walk for path lookup
Perform common cases of path lookups without any stores or locking in the
ancestor dentry elements. This is called rcu-walk, as opposed to the current
algorithm which is a refcount based walk, or ref-walk.
This results in far fewer atomic operations on every path element,
significantly improving path lookup performance. It also avoids cacheline
bouncing on common dentries, significantly improving scalability.
The overall design is like this:
* LOOKUP_RCU is set in nd->flags, which distinguishes rcu-walk from ref-walk.
* Take the RCU lock for the entire path walk, starting with the acquiring
of the starting path (eg. root/cwd/fd-path). So now dentry refcounts are
not required for dentry persistence.
* synchronize_rcu is called when unregistering a filesystem, so we can
access d_ops and i_ops during rcu-walk.
* Similarly take the vfsmount lock for the entire path walk. So now mnt
refcounts are not required for persistence. Also we are free to perform mount
lookups, and to assume dentry mount points and mount roots are stable up and
down the path.
* Have a per-dentry seqlock to protect the dentry name, parent, and inode,
so we can load this tuple atomically, and also check whether any of its
members have changed.
* Dentry lookups (based on parent, candidate string tuple) recheck the parent
sequence after the child is found in case anything changed in the parent
during the path walk.
* inode is also RCU protected so we can load d_inode and use the inode for
limited things.
* i_mode, i_uid, i_gid can be tested for exec permissions during path walk.
* i_op can be loaded.
When we reach the destination dentry, we lock it, recheck lookup sequence,
and increment its refcount and mountpoint refcount. RCU and vfsmount locks
are dropped. This is termed "dropping rcu-walk". If the dentry refcount does
not match, we can not drop rcu-walk gracefully at the current point in the
lokup, so instead return -ECHILD (for want of a better errno). This signals the
path walking code to re-do the entire lookup with a ref-walk.
Aside from the final dentry, there are other situations that may be encounted
where we cannot continue rcu-walk. In that case, we drop rcu-walk (ie. take
a reference on the last good dentry) and continue with a ref-walk. Again, if
we can drop rcu-walk gracefully, we return -ECHILD and do the whole lookup
using ref-walk. But it is very important that we can continue with ref-walk
for most cases, particularly to avoid the overhead of double lookups, and to
gain the scalability advantages on common path elements (like cwd and root).
The cases where rcu-walk cannot continue are:
* NULL dentry (ie. any uncached path element)
* parent with d_inode->i_op->permission or ACLs
* dentries with d_revalidate
* Following links
In future patches, permission checks and d_revalidate become rcu-walk aware. It
may be possible eventually to make following links rcu-walk aware.
Uncached path elements will always require dropping to ref-walk mode, at the
very least because i_mutex needs to be grabbed, and objects allocated.

Add a dentry op to handle automounting rather than abusing follow_link()
Add a dentry op (d_automount) to handle automounting directories rather than
abusing the follow_link() inode operation. The operation is keyed off a new
dentry flag (DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT).
This also makes it easier to add an AT_ flag to suppress terminal segment
automount during pathwalk and removes the need for the kludge code in the
pathwalk algorithm to handle directories with follow_link() semantics.
The ->d_automount() dentry operation:
struct vfsmount *(*d_automount)(struct path *mountpoint);
takes a pointer to the directory to be mounted upon, which is expected to
provide sufficient data to determine what should be mounted. If successful, it
should return the vfsmount struct it creates (which it should also have added
to the namespace using do_add_mount() or similar). If there's a collision with
another automount attempt, NULL should be returned. If the directory specified
by the parameter should be used directly rather than being mounted upon,
-EISDIR should be returned. In any other case, an error code should be
returned.
The ->d_automount() operation is called with no locks held and may sleep. At
this point the pathwalk algorithm will be in ref-walk mode.
Within fs/namei.c itself, a new pathwalk subroutine (follow_automount()) is
added to handle mountpoints. It will return -EREMOTE if the automount flag was
set, but no d_automount() op was supplied, -ELOOP if we've encountered too many
symlinks or mountpoints, -EISDIR if the walk point should be used without
mounting and 0 if successful. The path will be updated to point to the mounted
filesystem if a successful automount took place.
__follow_mount() is replaced by follow_managed() which is more generic
(especially with the patch that adds ->d_manage()). This handles transits from
directories during pathwalk, including automounting and skipping over
mountpoints (and holding processes with the next patch).
__follow_mount_rcu() will jump out of RCU-walk mode if it encounters an
automount point with nothing mounted on it.
follow_dotdot*() does not handle automounts as you don't want to trigger them
whilst following "..".
I've also extracted the mount/don't-mount logic from autofs4 and included it
here. It makes the mount go ahead anyway if someone calls open() or creat(),
tries to traverse the directory, tries to chdir/chroot/etc. into the directory,
or sticks a '/' on the end of the pathname. If they do a stat(), however,
they'll only trigger the automount if they didn't also say O_NOFOLLOW.
I've also added an inode flag (S_AUTOMOUNT) so that filesystems can mark their
inodes as automount points. This flag is automatically propagated to the
dentry as DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT by __d_instantiate(). This saves NFS and could
save AFS a private flag bit apiece, but is not strictly necessary. It would be
preferable to do the propagation in d_set_d_op(), but that doesn't normally
have access to the inode.
[AV: fixed breakage in case if __follow_mount_rcu() fails and nameidata_drop_rcu()
succeeds in RCU case of do_lookup(); we need to fall through to non-RCU case after
that, rather than just returning with ungrabbed *path]

fs: remove extra lookup in __lookup_hash
fs: remove extra lookup in __lookup_hash
Optimize lookup for create operations, where no dentry should often be
common-case. In cases where it is not, such as unlink, the added overhead
is much smaller than the removed.
Also, move comments about __d_lookup racyness to the __d_lookup call site.
d_lookup is intuitive; __d_lookup is what needs commenting. So in that same
vein, add kerneldoc comments to __d_lookup and clean up some of the comments:
- We are interested in how the RCU lookup works here, particularly with
renames. Make that explicit, and point to the document where it is explained
in more detail.
- RCU is pretty standard now, and macros make implementations pretty mindless.
If we want to know about RCU barrier details, we look in RCU code.
- Delete some boring legacy comments because we don't care much about how the
code used to work, more about the interesting parts of how it works now. So
comments about lazy LRU may be interesting, but would better be done in the
LRU or refcount management code.

fs: rcu-walk for path lookup
Perform common cases of path lookups without any stores or locking in the
ancestor dentry elements. This is called rcu-walk, as opposed to the current
algorithm which is a refcount based walk, or ref-walk.
This results in far fewer atomic operations on every path element,
significantly improving path lookup performance. It also avoids cacheline
bouncing on common dentries, significantly improving scalability.
The overall design is like this:
* LOOKUP_RCU is set in nd->flags, which distinguishes rcu-walk from ref-walk.
* Take the RCU lock for the entire path walk, starting with the acquiring
of the starting path (eg. root/cwd/fd-path). So now dentry refcounts are
not required for dentry persistence.
* synchronize_rcu is called when unregistering a filesystem, so we can
access d_ops and i_ops during rcu-walk.
* Similarly take the vfsmount lock for the entire path walk. So now mnt
refcounts are not required for persistence. Also we are free to perform mount
lookups, and to assume dentry mount points and mount roots are stable up and
down the path.
* Have a per-dentry seqlock to protect the dentry name, parent, and inode,
so we can load this tuple atomically, and also check whether any of its
members have changed.
* Dentry lookups (based on parent, candidate string tuple) recheck the parent
sequence after the child is found in case anything changed in the parent
during the path walk.
* inode is also RCU protected so we can load d_inode and use the inode for
limited things.
* i_mode, i_uid, i_gid can be tested for exec permissions during path walk.
* i_op can be loaded.
When we reach the destination dentry, we lock it, recheck lookup sequence,
and increment its refcount and mountpoint refcount. RCU and vfsmount locks
are dropped. This is termed "dropping rcu-walk". If the dentry refcount does
not match, we can not drop rcu-walk gracefully at the current point in the
lokup, so instead return -ECHILD (for want of a better errno). This signals the
path walking code to re-do the entire lookup with a ref-walk.
Aside from the final dentry, there are other situations that may be encounted
where we cannot continue rcu-walk. In that case, we drop rcu-walk (ie. take
a reference on the last good dentry) and continue with a ref-walk. Again, if
we can drop rcu-walk gracefully, we return -ECHILD and do the whole lookup
using ref-walk. But it is very important that we can continue with ref-walk
for most cases, particularly to avoid the overhead of double lookups, and to
gain the scalability advantages on common path elements (like cwd and root).
The cases where rcu-walk cannot continue are:
* NULL dentry (ie. any uncached path element)
* parent with d_inode->i_op->permission or ACLs
* dentries with d_revalidate
* Following links
In future patches, permission checks and d_revalidate become rcu-walk aware. It
may be possible eventually to make following links rcu-walk aware.
Uncached path elements will always require dropping to ref-walk mode, at the
very least because i_mutex needs to be grabbed, and objects allocated.

Add a dentry op to handle automounting rather than abusing follow_link()
Add a dentry op (d_automount) to handle automounting directories rather than
abusing the follow_link() inode operation. The operation is keyed off a new
dentry flag (DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT).
This also makes it easier to add an AT_ flag to suppress terminal segment
automount during pathwalk and removes the need for the kludge code in the
pathwalk algorithm to handle directories with follow_link() semantics.
The ->d_automount() dentry operation:
struct vfsmount *(*d_automount)(struct path *mountpoint);
takes a pointer to the directory to be mounted upon, which is expected to
provide sufficient data to determine what should be mounted. If successful, it
should return the vfsmount struct it creates (which it should also have added
to the namespace using do_add_mount() or similar). If there's a collision with
another automount attempt, NULL should be returned. If the directory specified
by the parameter should be used directly rather than being mounted upon,
-EISDIR should be returned. In any other case, an error code should be
returned.
The ->d_automount() operation is called with no locks held and may sleep. At
this point the pathwalk algorithm will be in ref-walk mode.
Within fs/namei.c itself, a new pathwalk subroutine (follow_automount()) is
added to handle mountpoints. It will return -EREMOTE if the automount flag was
set, but no d_automount() op was supplied, -ELOOP if we've encountered too many
symlinks or mountpoints, -EISDIR if the walk point should be used without
mounting and 0 if successful. The path will be updated to point to the mounted
filesystem if a successful automount took place.
__follow_mount() is replaced by follow_managed() which is more generic
(especially with the patch that adds ->d_manage()). This handles transits from
directories during pathwalk, including automounting and skipping over
mountpoints (and holding processes with the next patch).
__follow_mount_rcu() will jump out of RCU-walk mode if it encounters an
automount point with nothing mounted on it.
follow_dotdot*() does not handle automounts as you don't want to trigger them
whilst following "..".
I've also extracted the mount/don't-mount logic from autofs4 and included it
here. It makes the mount go ahead anyway if someone calls open() or creat(),
tries to traverse the directory, tries to chdir/chroot/etc. into the directory,
or sticks a '/' on the end of the pathname. If they do a stat(), however,
they'll only trigger the automount if they didn't also say O_NOFOLLOW.
I've also added an inode flag (S_AUTOMOUNT) so that filesystems can mark their
inodes as automount points. This flag is automatically propagated to the
dentry as DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT by __d_instantiate(). This saves NFS and could
save AFS a private flag bit apiece, but is not strictly necessary. It would be
preferable to do the propagation in d_set_d_op(), but that doesn't normally
have access to the inode.
[AV: fixed breakage in case if __follow_mount_rcu() fails and nameidata_drop_rcu()
succeeds in RCU case of do_lookup(); we need to fall through to non-RCU case after
that, rather than just returning with ungrabbed *path]

Add a dentry op to handle automounting rather than abusing follow_link()
Add a dentry op (d_automount) to handle automounting directories rather than
abusing the follow_link() inode operation. The operation is keyed off a new
dentry flag (DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT).
This also makes it easier to add an AT_ flag to suppress terminal segment
automount during pathwalk and removes the need for the kludge code in the
pathwalk algorithm to handle directories with follow_link() semantics.
The ->d_automount() dentry operation:
struct vfsmount *(*d_automount)(struct path *mountpoint);
takes a pointer to the directory to be mounted upon, which is expected to
provide sufficient data to determine what should be mounted. If successful, it
should return the vfsmount struct it creates (which it should also have added
to the namespace using do_add_mount() or similar). If there's a collision with
another automount attempt, NULL should be returned. If the directory specified
by the parameter should be used directly rather than being mounted upon,
-EISDIR should be returned. In any other case, an error code should be
returned.
The ->d_automount() operation is called with no locks held and may sleep. At
this point the pathwalk algorithm will be in ref-walk mode.
Within fs/namei.c itself, a new pathwalk subroutine (follow_automount()) is
added to handle mountpoints. It will return -EREMOTE if the automount flag was
set, but no d_automount() op was supplied, -ELOOP if we've encountered too many
symlinks or mountpoints, -EISDIR if the walk point should be used without
mounting and 0 if successful. The path will be updated to point to the mounted
filesystem if a successful automount took place.
__follow_mount() is replaced by follow_managed() which is more generic
(especially with the patch that adds ->d_manage()). This handles transits from
directories during pathwalk, including automounting and skipping over
mountpoints (and holding processes with the next patch).
__follow_mount_rcu() will jump out of RCU-walk mode if it encounters an
automount point with nothing mounted on it.
follow_dotdot*() does not handle automounts as you don't want to trigger them
whilst following "..".
I've also extracted the mount/don't-mount logic from autofs4 and included it
here. It makes the mount go ahead anyway if someone calls open() or creat(),
tries to traverse the directory, tries to chdir/chroot/etc. into the directory,
or sticks a '/' on the end of the pathname. If they do a stat(), however,
they'll only trigger the automount if they didn't also say O_NOFOLLOW.
I've also added an inode flag (S_AUTOMOUNT) so that filesystems can mark their
inodes as automount points. This flag is automatically propagated to the
dentry as DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT by __d_instantiate(). This saves NFS and could
save AFS a private flag bit apiece, but is not strictly necessary. It would be
preferable to do the propagation in d_set_d_op(), but that doesn't normally
have access to the inode.
[AV: fixed breakage in case if __follow_mount_rcu() fails and nameidata_drop_rcu()
succeeds in RCU case of do_lookup(); we need to fall through to non-RCU case after
that, rather than just returning with ungrabbed *path]

fs: rcu-walk for path lookup
Perform common cases of path lookups without any stores or locking in the
ancestor dentry elements. This is called rcu-walk, as opposed to the current
algorithm which is a refcount based walk, or ref-walk.
This results in far fewer atomic operations on every path element,
significantly improving path lookup performance. It also avoids cacheline
bouncing on common dentries, significantly improving scalability.
The overall design is like this:
* LOOKUP_RCU is set in nd->flags, which distinguishes rcu-walk from ref-walk.
* Take the RCU lock for the entire path walk, starting with the acquiring
of the starting path (eg. root/cwd/fd-path). So now dentry refcounts are
not required for dentry persistence.
* synchronize_rcu is called when unregistering a filesystem, so we can
access d_ops and i_ops during rcu-walk.
* Similarly take the vfsmount lock for the entire path walk. So now mnt
refcounts are not required for persistence. Also we are free to perform mount
lookups, and to assume dentry mount points and mount roots are stable up and
down the path.
* Have a per-dentry seqlock to protect the dentry name, parent, and inode,
so we can load this tuple atomically, and also check whether any of its
members have changed.
* Dentry lookups (based on parent, candidate string tuple) recheck the parent
sequence after the child is found in case anything changed in the parent
during the path walk.
* inode is also RCU protected so we can load d_inode and use the inode for
limited things.
* i_mode, i_uid, i_gid can be tested for exec permissions during path walk.
* i_op can be loaded.
When we reach the destination dentry, we lock it, recheck lookup sequence,
and increment its refcount and mountpoint refcount. RCU and vfsmount locks
are dropped. This is termed "dropping rcu-walk". If the dentry refcount does
not match, we can not drop rcu-walk gracefully at the current point in the
lokup, so instead return -ECHILD (for want of a better errno). This signals the
path walking code to re-do the entire lookup with a ref-walk.
Aside from the final dentry, there are other situations that may be encounted
where we cannot continue rcu-walk. In that case, we drop rcu-walk (ie. take
a reference on the last good dentry) and continue with a ref-walk. Again, if
we can drop rcu-walk gracefully, we return -ECHILD and do the whole lookup
using ref-walk. But it is very important that we can continue with ref-walk
for most cases, particularly to avoid the overhead of double lookups, and to
gain the scalability advantages on common path elements (like cwd and root).
The cases where rcu-walk cannot continue are:
* NULL dentry (ie. any uncached path element)
* parent with d_inode->i_op->permission or ACLs
* dentries with d_revalidate
* Following links
In future patches, permission checks and d_revalidate become rcu-walk aware. It
may be possible eventually to make following links rcu-walk aware.
Uncached path elements will always require dropping to ref-walk mode, at the
very least because i_mutex needs to be grabbed, and objects allocated.

members have changed.
* Dentry lookups (based on parent, candidate string tuple) recheck the parent
sequence after the child is found in case anything changed in the parent
during the path walk.
* inode is also RCU protected so we can load d_inode and use the inode for
limited things.
* i_mode, i_uid, i_gid can be tested for exec permissions during path walk.
* i_op can be loaded.
When we reach the destination dentry, we lock it, recheck lookup sequence,
and increment its refcount and mountpoint refcount. RCU and vfsmount locks
are dropped. This is termed "dropping rcu-walk". If the dentry refcount does
not match, we can not drop rcu-walk gracefully at the current point in the
lokup, so instead return -ECHILD (for want of a better errno). This signals the
path walking code to re-do the entire lookup with a ref-walk.
Aside from the final dentry, there are other situations that may be encounted
where we cannot continue rcu-walk. In that case, we drop rcu-walk (ie. take
a reference on the last good dentry) and continue with a ref-walk. Again, if
we can drop rcu-walk gracefully, we return -ECHILD and do the whole lookup
using ref-walk. But it is very important that we can continue with ref-walk
for most cases, particularly to avoid the overhead of double lookups, and to
gain the scalability advantages on common path elements (like cwd and root).
The cases where rcu-walk cannot continue are:
* NULL dentry (ie. any uncached path element)
* parent with d_inode->i_op->permission or ACLs
* dentries with d_revalidate
* Following links
In future patches, permission checks and d_revalidate become rcu-walk aware. It
may be possible eventually to make following links rcu-walk aware.
Uncached path elements will always require dropping to ref-walk mode, at the
very least because i_mutex needs to be grabbed, and objects allocated.

New kind of open files - "location only".
New flag for open(2) - O_PATH. Semantics:
* pathname is resolved, but the file itself is _NOT_ opened
as far as filesystem is concerned.
* almost all operations on the resulting descriptors shall
fail with -EBADF. Exceptions are:
1) operations on descriptors themselves (i.e.
close(), dup(), dup2(), dup3(), fcntl(fd, F_DUPFD),
fcntl(fd, F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC, ...), fcntl(fd, F_GETFD),
fcntl(fd, F_SETFD, ...))
2) fcntl(fd, F_GETFL), for a common non-destructive way to
check if descriptor is open
3) "dfd" arguments of ...at(2) syscalls, i.e. the starting
points of pathname resolution
* closing such descriptor does *NOT* affect dnotify or
posix locks.
* permissions are checked as usual along the way to file;
no permission checks are applied to the file itself. Of course,
giving such thing to syscall will result in permission checks (at
the moment it means checking that starting point of ....at() is
a directory and caller has exec permissions on it).
fget() and fget_light() return NULL on such descriptors; use of
fget_raw() and fget_raw_light() is needed to get them. That protects
existing code from dealing with those things.
There are two things still missing (they come in the next commits):
one is handling of symlinks (right now we refuse to open them that
way; see the next commit for semantics related to those) and another
is descriptor passing via SCM_RIGHTS datagrams.

fs: rcu-walk for path lookup
Perform common cases of path lookups without any stores or locking in the
ancestor dentry elements. This is called rcu-walk, as opposed to the current
algorithm which is a refcount based walk, or ref-walk.
This results in far fewer atomic operations on every path element,
significantly improving path lookup performance. It also avoids cacheline
bouncing on common dentries, significantly improving scalability.
The overall design is like this:
* LOOKUP_RCU is set in nd->flags, which distinguishes rcu-walk from ref-walk.
* Take the RCU lock for the entire path walk, starting with the acquiring
of the starting path (eg. root/cwd/fd-path). So now dentry refcounts are
not required for dentry persistence.
* synchronize_rcu is called when unregistering a filesystem, so we can
access d_ops and i_ops during rcu-walk.
* Similarly take the vfsmount lock for the entire path walk. So now mnt
refcounts are not required for persistence. Also we are free to perform mount
lookups, and to assume dentry mount points and mount roots are stable up and
down the path.
* Have a per-dentry seqlock to protect the dentry name, parent, and inode,
so we can load this tuple atomically, and also check whether any of its
members have changed.
* Dentry lookups (based on parent, candidate string tuple) recheck the parent
sequence after the child is found in case anything changed in the parent

fs: rcu-walk for path lookup
Perform common cases of path lookups without any stores or locking in the
ancestor dentry elements. This is called rcu-walk, as opposed to the current
algorithm which is a refcount based walk, or ref-walk.
This results in far fewer atomic operations on every path element,
significantly improving path lookup performance. It also avoids cacheline
bouncing on common dentries, significantly improving scalability.
The overall design is like this:
* LOOKUP_RCU is set in nd->flags, which distinguishes rcu-walk from ref-walk.
* Take the RCU lock for the entire path walk, starting with the acquiring
of the starting path (eg. root/cwd/fd-path). So now dentry refcounts are
not required for dentry persistence.
* synchronize_rcu is called when unregistering a filesystem, so we can
access d_ops and i_ops during rcu-walk.
* Similarly take the vfsmount lock for the entire path walk. So now mnt
refcounts are not required for persistence. Also we are free to perform mount
lookups, and to assume dentry mount points and mount roots are stable up and
down the path.
* Have a per-dentry seqlock to protect the dentry name, parent, and inode,
so we can load this tuple atomically, and also check whether any of its
members have changed.
* Dentry lookups (based on parent, candidate string tuple) recheck the parent
sequence after the child is found in case anything changed in the parent
during the path walk.
* inode is also RCU protected so we can load d_inode and use the inode for
limited things.
* i_mode, i_uid, i_gid can be tested for exec permissions during path walk.
* i_op can be loaded.
When we reach the destination dentry, we lock it, recheck lookup sequence,
and increment its refcount and mountpoint refcount. RCU and vfsmount locks
are dropped. This is termed "dropping rcu-walk". If the dentry refcount does
not match, we can not drop rcu-walk gracefully at the current point in the
lokup, so instead return -ECHILD (for want of a better errno). This signals the
path walking code to re-do the entire lookup with a ref-walk.
Aside from the final dentry, there are other situations that may be encounted
where we cannot continue rcu-walk. In that case, we drop rcu-walk (ie. take
a reference on the last good dentry) and continue with a ref-walk. Again, if
we can drop rcu-walk gracefully, we return -ECHILD and do the whole lookup
using ref-walk. But it is very important that we can continue with ref-walk
for most cases, particularly to avoid the overhead of double lookups, and to
gain the scalability advantages on common path elements (like cwd and root).
The cases where rcu-walk cannot continue are:
* NULL dentry (ie. any uncached path element)
* parent with d_inode->i_op->permission or ACLs
* dentries with d_revalidate
* Following links
In future patches, permission checks and d_revalidate become rcu-walk aware. It
may be possible eventually to make following links rcu-walk aware.
Uncached path elements will always require dropping to ref-walk mode, at the
very least because i_mutex needs to be grabbed, and objects allocated.

fs: introduce vfs_path_lookup
Stackable file systems, among others, frequently need to lookup paths or
path components starting from an arbitrary point in the namespace
(identified by a dentry and a vfsmount). Currently, such file systems use
lookup_one_len, which is frowned upon [1] as it does not pass the lookup
intent along; not passing a lookup intent, for example, can trigger BUG_ON's
when stacking on top of NFSv4.
The first patch introduces a new lookup function to allow lookup starting
from an arbitrary point in the namespace. This approach has been suggested
by Christoph Hellwig [2].
The second patch changes sunrpc to use vfs_path_lookup.
The third patch changes nfsctl.c to use vfs_path_lookup.
The fourth patch marks link_path_walk static.
The fifth, and last patch, unexports path_walk because it is no longer
unnecessary to call it directly, and using the new vfs_path_lookup is
cleaner.
For example, the following snippet of code, looks up "some/path/component"
in a directory pointed to by parent_{dentry,vfsmnt}:
err = vfs_path_lookup(parent_dentry, parent_vfsmnt,
"some/path/component", 0, &nd);
if (!err) {
/* exits */
...
/* once done, release the references */
path_release(&nd);
} else if (err == -ENOENT) {
/* doesn't exist */
} else {
/* other error */
}
VFS functions such as lookup_create can be used on the nameidata structure
to pass the create intent to the file system.

fs: remove extra lookup in __lookup_hash
Optimize lookup for create operations, where no dentry should often be
common-case. In cases where it is not, such as unlink, the added overhead
is much smaller than the removed.
Also, move comments about __d_lookup racyness to the __d_lookup call site.
d_lookup is intuitive; __d_lookup is what needs commenting. So in that same
vein, add kerneldoc comments to __d_lookup and clean up some of the comments:
- We are interested in how the RCU lookup works here, particularly with
renames. Make that explicit, and point to the document where it is explained
in more detail.
- RCU is pretty standard now, and macros make implementations pretty mindless.
If we want to know about RCU barrier details, we look in RCU code.
- Delete some boring legacy comments because we don't care much about how the
code used to work, more about the interesting parts of how it works now. So
comments about lazy LRU may be interesting, but would better be done in the
LRU or refcount management code.

fs: rcu-walk for path lookup
Perform common cases of path lookups without any stores or locking in the
ancestor dentry elements. This is called rcu-walk, as opposed to the current
algorithm which is a refcount based walk, or ref-walk.
This results in far fewer atomic operations on every path element,
significantly improving path lookup performance. It also avoids cacheline
bouncing on common dentries, significantly improving scalability.
The overall design is like this:
* LOOKUP_RCU is set in nd->flags, which distinguishes rcu-walk from ref-walk.
* Take the RCU lock for the entire path walk, starting with the acquiring
of the starting path (eg. root/cwd/fd-path). So now dentry refcounts are
not required for dentry persistence.
* synchronize_rcu is called when unregistering a filesystem, so we can
access d_ops and i_ops during rcu-walk.
* Similarly take the vfsmount lock for the entire path walk. So now mnt
refcounts are not required for persistence. Also we are free to perform mount
lookups, and to assume dentry mount points and mount roots are stable up and
down the path.
* Have a per-dentry seqlock to protect the dentry name, parent, and inode,
so we can load this tuple atomically, and also check whether any of its
members have changed.
* Dentry lookups (based on parent, candidate string tuple) recheck the parent
sequence after the child is found in case anything changed in the parent
during the path walk.
* inode is also RCU protected so we can load d_inode and use the inode for
limited things.
* i_mode, i_uid, i_gid can be tested for exec permissions during path walk.
* i_op can be loaded.
When we reach the destination dentry, we lock it, recheck lookup sequence,
and increment its refcount and mountpoint refcount. RCU and vfsmount locks
are dropped. This is termed "dropping rcu-walk". If the dentry refcount does
not match, we can not drop rcu-walk gracefully at the current point in the
lokup, so instead return -ECHILD (for want of a better errno). This signals the
path walking code to re-do the entire lookup with a ref-walk.
Aside from the final dentry, there are other situations that may be encounted
where we cannot continue rcu-walk. In that case, we drop rcu-walk (ie. take
a reference on the last good dentry) and continue with a ref-walk. Again, if
we can drop rcu-walk gracefully, we return -ECHILD and do the whole lookup
using ref-walk. But it is very important that we can continue with ref-walk
for most cases, particularly to avoid the overhead of double lookups, and to
gain the scalability advantages on common path elements (like cwd and root).
The cases where rcu-walk cannot continue are:
* NULL dentry (ie. any uncached path element)
* parent with d_inode->i_op->permission or ACLs
* dentries with d_revalidate
* Following links
In future patches, permission checks and d_revalidate become rcu-walk aware. It
may be possible eventually to make following links rcu-walk aware.
Uncached path elements will always require dropping to ref-walk mode, at the
very least because i_mutex needs to be grabbed, and objects allocated.

we can drop rcu-walk gracefully, we return -ECHILD and do the whole lookup
using ref-walk. But it is very important that we can continue with ref-walk
for most cases, particularly to avoid the overhead of double lookups, and to
gain the scalability advantages on common path elements (like cwd and root).
The cases where rcu-walk cannot continue are:
* NULL dentry (ie. any uncached path element)
* parent with d_inode->i_op->permission or ACLs
* dentries with d_revalidate
* Following links
In future patches, permission checks and d_revalidate become rcu-walk aware. It
may be possible eventually to make following links rcu-walk aware.
Uncached path elements will always require dropping to ref-walk mode, at the
very least because i_mutex needs to be grabbed, and objects allocated.

Add a dentry op to handle automounting rather than abusing follow_link()
Add a dentry op (d_automount) to handle automounting directories rather than
abusing the follow_link() inode operation. The operation is keyed off a new
dentry flag (DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT).
This also makes it easier to add an AT_ flag to suppress terminal segment
automount during pathwalk and removes the need for the kludge code in the
pathwalk algorithm to handle directories with follow_link() semantics.
The ->d_automount() dentry operation:
struct vfsmount *(*d_automount)(struct path *mountpoint);
takes a pointer to the directory to be mounted upon, which is expected to
provide sufficient data to determine what should be mounted. If successful, it
should return the vfsmount struct it creates (which it should also have added
to the namespace using do_add_mount() or similar). If there's a collision with
another automount attempt, NULL should be returned. If the directory specified
by the parameter should be used directly rather than being mounted upon,
-EISDIR should be returned. In any other case, an error code should be
returned.
The ->d_automount() operation is called with no locks held and may sleep. At
this point the pathwalk algorithm will be in ref-walk mode.
Within fs/namei.c itself, a new pathwalk subroutine (follow_automount()) is
added to handle mountpoints. It will return -EREMOTE if the automount flag was
set, but no d_automount() op was supplied, -ELOOP if we've encountered too many
symlinks or mountpoints, -EISDIR if the walk point should be used without
mounting and 0 if successful. The path will be updated to point to the mounted
filesystem if a successful automount took place.
__follow_mount() is replaced by follow_managed() which is more generic
(especially with the patch that adds ->d_manage()). This handles transits from
directories during pathwalk, including automounting and skipping over
mountpoints (and holding processes with the next patch).
__follow_mount_rcu() will jump out of RCU-walk mode if it encounters an
automount point with nothing mounted on it.
follow_dotdot*() does not handle automounts as you don't want to trigger them
whilst following "..".
I've also extracted the mount/don't-mount logic from autofs4 and included it
here. It makes the mount go ahead anyway if someone calls open() or creat(),
tries to traverse the directory, tries to chdir/chroot/etc. into the directory,
or sticks a '/' on the end of the pathname. If they do a stat(), however,
they'll only trigger the automount if they didn't also say O_NOFOLLOW.
I've also added an inode flag (S_AUTOMOUNT) so that filesystems can mark their
inodes as automount points. This flag is automatically propagated to the
dentry as DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT by __d_instantiate(). This saves NFS and could
save AFS a private flag bit apiece, but is not strictly necessary. It would be
preferable to do the propagation in d_set_d_op(), but that doesn't normally
have access to the inode.
[AV: fixed breakage in case if __follow_mount_rcu() fails and nameidata_drop_rcu()
succeeds in RCU case of do_lookup(); we need to fall through to non-RCU case after
that, rather than just returning with ungrabbed *path]

fs: rcu-walk for path lookup
Perform common cases of path lookups without any stores or locking in the
ancestor dentry elements. This is called rcu-walk, as opposed to the current
algorithm which is a refcount based walk, or ref-walk.
This results in far fewer atomic operations on every path element,
significantly improving path lookup performance. It also avoids cacheline
bouncing on common dentries, significantly improving scalability.
The overall design is like this:
* LOOKUP_RCU is set in nd->flags, which distinguishes rcu-walk from ref-walk.
* Take the RCU lock for the entire path walk, starting with the acquiring
of the starting path (eg. root/cwd/fd-path). So now dentry refcounts are
not required for dentry persistence.
* synchronize_rcu is called when unregistering a filesystem, so we can
access d_ops and i_ops during rcu-walk.
* Similarly take the vfsmount lock for the entire path walk. So now mnt
refcounts are not required for persistence. Also we are free to perform mount
lookups, and to assume dentry mount points and mount roots are stable up and
down the path.
* Have a per-dentry seqlock to protect the dentry name, parent, and inode,
so we can load this tuple atomically, and also check whether any of its
members have changed.
* Dentry lookups (based on parent, candidate string tuple) recheck the parent
sequence after the child is found in case anything changed in the parent
during the path walk.
* inode is also RCU protected so we can load d_inode and use the inode for
limited things.
* i_mode, i_uid, i_gid can be tested for exec permissions during path walk.
* i_op can be loaded.
When we reach the destination dentry, we lock it, recheck lookup sequence,
and increment its refcount and mountpoint refcount. RCU and vfsmount locks
are dropped. This is termed "dropping rcu-walk". If the dentry refcount does
not match, we can not drop rcu-walk gracefully at the current point in the
lokup, so instead return -ECHILD (for want of a better errno). This signals the
path walking code to re-do the entire lookup with a ref-walk.
Aside from the final dentry, there are other situations that may be encounted
where we cannot continue rcu-walk. In that case, we drop rcu-walk (ie. take
a reference on the last good dentry) and continue with a ref-walk. Again, if
we can drop rcu-walk gracefully, we return -ECHILD and do the whole lookup
using ref-walk. But it is very important that we can continue with ref-walk
for most cases, particularly to avoid the overhead of double lookups, and to
gain the scalability advantages on common path elements (like cwd and root).

* parent with d_inode->i_op->permission or ACLs
* dentries with d_revalidate
* Following links
In future patches, permission checks and d_revalidate become rcu-walk aware. It
may be possible eventually to make following links rcu-walk aware.

very least because i_mutex needs to be grabbed, and objects allocated.

fs: rcu-walk for path lookup
Perform common cases of path lookups without any stores or locking in the
ancestor dentry elements. This is called rcu-walk, as opposed to the current
algorithm which is a refcount based walk, or ref-walk.
This results in far fewer atomic operations on every path element,
significantly improving path lookup performance. It also avoids cacheline
bouncing on common dentries, significantly improving scalability.
The overall design is like this:
* LOOKUP_RCU is set in nd->flags, which distinguishes rcu-walk from ref-walk.
* Take the RCU lock for the entire path walk, starting with the acquiring
of the starting path (eg. root/cwd/fd-path). So now dentry refcounts are
not required for dentry persistence.
* synchronize_rcu is called when unregistering a filesystem, so we can
access d_ops and i_ops during rcu-walk.
* Similarly take the vfsmount lock for the entire path walk. So now mnt
refcounts are not required for persistence. Also we are free to perform mount
lookups, and to assume dentry mount points and mount roots are stable up and
down the path.
* Have a per-dentry seqlock to protect the dentry name, parent, and inode,
so we can load this tuple atomically, and also check whether any of its
members have changed.
* Dentry lookups (based on parent, candidate string tuple) recheck the parent
sequence after the child is found in case anything changed in the parent
during the path walk.
* inode is also RCU protected so we can load d_inode and use the inode for
limited things.
* i_mode, i_uid, i_gid can be tested for exec permissions during path walk.
* i_op can be loaded.
When we reach the destination dentry, we lock it, recheck lookup sequence,
and increment its refcount and mountpoint refcount. RCU and vfsmount locks
are dropped. This is termed "dropping rcu-walk". If the dentry refcount does
not match, we can not drop rcu-walk gracefully at the current point in the
lokup, so instead return -ECHILD (for want of a better errno). This signals the
path walking code to re-do the entire lookup with a ref-walk.
Aside from the final dentry, there are other situations that may be encounted
where we cannot continue rcu-walk. In that case, we drop rcu-walk (ie. take
a reference on the last good dentry) and continue with a ref-walk. Again, if
we can drop rcu-walk gracefully, we return -ECHILD and do the whole lookup
using ref-walk. But it is very important that we can continue with ref-walk
for most cases, particularly to avoid the overhead of double lookups, and to
gain the scalability advantages on common path elements (like cwd and root).
The cases where rcu-walk cannot continue are:
* NULL dentry (ie. any uncached path element)
* parent with d_inode->i_op->permission or ACLs
* dentries with d_revalidate
* Following links
In future patches, permission checks and d_revalidate become rcu-walk aware. It
may be possible eventually to make following links rcu-walk aware.
Uncached path elements will always require dropping to ref-walk mode, at the
very least because i_mutex needs to be grabbed, and objects allocated.

This results in far fewer atomic operations on every path element,

The overall design is like this:

[PATCH] inotify
inotify is intended to correct the deficiencies of dnotify, particularly
its inability to scale and its terrible user interface:
* dnotify requires the opening of one fd per each directory
that you intend to watch. This quickly results in too many
open files and pins removable media, preventing unmount.
* dnotify is directory-based. You only learn about changes to
directories. Sure, a change to a file in a directory affects
the directory, but you are then forced to keep a cache of
stat structures.
* dnotify's interface to user-space is awful. Signals?
inotify provides a more usable, simple, powerful solution to file change
notification:
* inotify's interface is a system call that returns a fd, not SIGIO.
You get a single fd, which is select()-able.
* inotify has an event that says "the filesystem that the item
you were watching is on was unmounted."
* inotify can watch directories or files.
Inotify is currently used by Beagle (a desktop search infrastructure),
Gamin (a FAM replacement), and other projects.
See Documentation/filesystems/inotify.txt.

/*
|
|
|
|
* The worst of all namespace operations - renaming directory. "Perverted"
|
|
|
|
* doesn't even start to describe it. Somebody in UCB had a heck of a trip...
|
|
|
|
* Problems:
|
|
|
|
* a) we can get into loop creation. Check is done in is_subdir().
|
|
|
|
* b) race potential - two innocent renames can create a loop together.
|
|
|
|
* That's where 4.4 screws up. Current fix: serialization on
|
2006-03-23 12:00:33 +01:00
|
|
|
* sb->s_vfs_rename_mutex. We might be more accurate, but that's another
|
2005-04-17 00:20:36 +02:00
|
|
|
* story.
|
|
|
|
* c) we have to lock _three_ objects - parents and victim (if it exists).
|
2006-01-10 00:59:24 +01:00
|
|
|
* And that - after we got ->i_mutex on parents (until then we don't know
|
2005-04-17 00:20:36 +02:00
|
|
|
* whether the target exists). Solution: try to be smart with locking
|
|
|
|
* order for inodes. We rely on the fact that tree topology may change
|
2006-03-23 12:00:33 +01:00
|
|
|
* only under ->s_vfs_rename_mutex _and_ that parent of the object we
|
2005-04-17 00:20:36 +02:00
|
|
|
* move will be locked. Thus we can rank directories by the tree
|
|
|
|
* (ancestors first) and rank all non-directories after them.
|
|
|
|
* That works since everybody except rename does "lock parent, lookup,
|
2006-03-23 12:00:33 +01:00
|
|
|
* lock child" and rename is under ->s_vfs_rename_mutex.
|
2005-04-17 00:20:36 +02:00
|
|
|
* HOWEVER, it relies on the assumption that any object with ->lookup()
|
|
|
|
* has no more than 1 dentry. If "hybrid" objects will ever appear,
|
|
|
|
* we'd better make sure that there's no link(2) for them.
|
2011-05-24 22:06:07 +02:00
|
|
|
* d) conversion from fhandle to dentry may come in the wrong moment - when
|
2006-01-10 00:59:24 +01:00
|
|
|
* we are removing the target. Solution: we will have to grab ->i_mutex
|
2005-04-17 00:20:36 +02:00
|
|
|
* in the fhandle_to_dentry code. [FIXME - current nfsfh.c relies on
|
2009-12-11 22:35:39 +01:00
|
|
|
* ->i_mutex on parents, which works but leads to some truly excessive
|
2005-04-17 00:20:36 +02:00
|
|
|
* locking].

[PATCH] inotify
inotify is intended to correct the deficiencies of dnotify, particularly
its inability to scale and its terrible user interface:
* dnotify requires the opening of one fd per each directory
that you intend to watch. This quickly results in too many
open files and pins removable media, preventing unmount.
* dnotify is directory-based. You only learn about changes to
directories. Sure, a change to a file in a directory affects
the directory, but you are then forced to keep a cache of
stat structures.
* dnotify's interface to user-space is awful. Signals?
inotify provides a more usable, simple, powerful solution to file change
notification:
* inotify's interface is a system call that returns a fd, not SIGIO.
You get a single fd, which is select()-able.
* inotify has an event that says "the filesystem that the item
you were watching is on was unmounted."
* inotify can watch directories or files.
Inotify is currently used by Beagle (a desktop search infrastructure),
Gamin (a FAM replacement), and other projects.

fs: symlink write_begin allocation context fix
With the write_begin/write_end aops, page_symlink was broken because it
could no longer pass a GFP_NOFS type mask into the point where the
allocations happened. They are done in write_begin, which would always
assume that the filesystem can be entered from reclaim. This bug could
cause filesystem deadlocks.
The funny thing with having a gfp_t mask there is that it doesn't really
allow the caller to arbitrarily tinker with the context in which it can be
called. It couldn't ever be GFP_ATOMIC, for example, because it needs to
take the page lock. The only thing any callers care about is __GFP_FS
anyway, so turn that into a single flag.
Add a new flag for write_begin, AOP_FLAG_NOFS. Filesystems can now act on
this flag in their write_begin function. Change __grab_cache_page to
accept a nofs argument as well, to honour that flag (while we're there,
change the name to grab_cache_page_write_begin which is more instructive
and does away with random leading underscores).
This is really a more flexible way to go in the end anyway -- if a
filesystem happens to want any extra allocations aside from the pagecache
ones in ints write_begin function, it may now use GFP_KERNEL (rather than
GFP_NOFS) for common case allocations (eg. ocfs2_alloc_write_ctxt, for a
random example).

fs: symlink write_begin allocation context fix
With the write_begin/write_end aops, page_symlink was broken because it
could no longer pass a GFP_NOFS type mask into the point where the
allocations happened. They are done in write_begin, which would always
assume that the filesystem can be entered from reclaim. This bug could
cause filesystem deadlocks.
The funny thing with having a gfp_t mask there is that it doesn't really
allow the caller to arbitrarily tinker with the context in which it can be
called. It couldn't ever be GFP_ATOMIC, for example, because it needs to
take the page lock. The only thing any callers care about is __GFP_FS
anyway, so turn that into a single flag.
Add a new flag for write_begin, AOP_FLAG_NOFS. Filesystems can now act on
this flag in their write_begin function. Change __grab_cache_page to
accept a nofs argument as well, to honour that flag (while we're there,
change the name to grab_cache_page_write_begin which is more instructive
and does away with random leading underscores).
This is really a more flexible way to go in the end anyway -- if a
filesystem happens to want any extra allocations aside from the pagecache
ones in ints write_begin function, it may now use GFP_KERNEL (rather than
GFP_NOFS) for common case allocations (eg. ocfs2_alloc_write_ctxt, for a
random example).

Add a dentry op to allow processes to be held during pathwalk transit
Add a dentry op (d_manage) to permit a filesystem to hold a process and make it
sleep when it tries to transit away from one of that filesystem's directories
during a pathwalk. The operation is keyed off a new dentry flag
(DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT).
The filesystem is allowed to be selective about which processes it holds and
which it permits to continue on or prohibits from transiting from each flagged
directory. This will allow autofs to hold up client processes whilst letting
its userspace daemon through to maintain the directory or the stuff behind it
or mounted upon it.
The ->d_manage() dentry operation:
int (*d_manage)(struct path *path, bool mounting_here);
takes a pointer to the directory about to be transited away from and a flag
indicating whether the transit is undertaken by do_add_mount() or
do_move_mount() skipping through a pile of filesystems mounted on a mountpoint.
It should return 0 if successful and to let the process continue on its way;
-EISDIR to prohibit the caller from skipping to overmounted filesystems or
automounting, and to use this directory; or some other error code to return to
the user.
->d_manage() is called with namespace_sem writelocked if mounting_here is true
and no other locks held, so it may sleep. However, if mounting_here is true,
it may not initiate or wait for a mount or unmount upon the parameter
directory, even if the act is actually performed by userspace.
Within fs/namei.c, follow_managed() is extended to check with d_manage() first
on each managed directory, before transiting away from it or attempting to
automount upon it.
follow_down() is renamed follow_down_one() and should only be used where the
filesystem deliberately intends to avoid management steps (e.g. autofs).
A new follow_down() is added that incorporates the loop done by all other
callers of follow_down() (do_add/move_mount(), autofs and NFSD; whilst AFS, NFS
and CIFS do use it, their use is removed by converting them to use
d_automount()). The new follow_down() calls d_manage() as appropriate. It
also takes an extra parameter to indicate if it is being called from mount code
(with namespace_sem writelocked) which it passes to d_manage(). follow_down()
ignores automount points so that it can be used to mount on them.
__follow_mount_rcu() is made to abort rcu-walk mode if it hits a directory with
DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT set on the basis that we're probably going to have to
sleep. It would be possible to enter d_manage() in rcu-walk mode too, and have
that determine whether to abort or not itself. That would allow the autofs
daemon to continue on in rcu-walk mode.
Note that DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT on a directory should be cleared when it isn't
required as every tranist from that directory will cause d_manage() to be
invoked. It can always be set again when necessary.
==========================
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR AUTOFS
==========================
Autofs currently uses the lookup() inode op and the d_revalidate() dentry op to
trigger the automounting of indirect mounts, and both of these can be called
with i_mutex held.
autofs knows that the i_mutex will be held by the caller in lookup(), and so
can drop it before invoking the daemon - but this isn't so for d_revalidate(),
since the lock is only held on _some_ of the code paths that call it. This
means that autofs can't risk dropping i_mutex from its d_revalidate() function
before it calls the daemon.
The bug could manifest itself as, for example, a process that's trying to
validate an automount dentry that gets made to wait because that dentry is
expired and needs cleaning up:
mkdir S ffffffff8014e05a 0 32580 24956
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff885371fd>] :autofs4:autofs4_wait+0x674/0x897
[<ffffffff80127f7d>] avc_has_perm+0x46/0x58

[<ffffffff80057a2f>] lookup_create+0x46/0x80
[<ffffffff800e6e31>] sys_mkdirat+0x56/0xe4
versus the automount daemon which wants to remove that dentry, but can't
because the normal process is holding the i_mutex lock:
automount D ffffffff8014e05a 0 32581 1 32561
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff80063c3f>] __mutex_lock_slowpath+0x60/0x9b
[<ffffffff8000ccf1>] do_path_lookup+0x2ca/0x2f1
[<ffffffff80063c89>] .text.lock.mutex+0xf/0x14

[<ffffffff8005d229>] tracesys+0x71/0xe0
[<ffffffff8005d28d>] tracesys+0xd5/0xe0
which means that the system is deadlocked.
This patch allows autofs to hold up normal processes whilst the daemon goes
ahead and does things to the dentry tree behind the automouter point without
risking a deadlock as almost no locks are held in d_manage() and none in
d_automount().

fs: introduce vfs_path_lookup
Stackable file systems, among others, frequently need to lookup paths or
path components starting from an arbitrary point in the namespace
(identified by a dentry and a vfsmount). Currently, such file systems use
lookup_one_len, which is frowned upon [1] as it does not pass the lookup
intent along; not passing a lookup intent, for example, can trigger BUG_ON's
when stacking on top of NFSv4.
The first patch introduces a new lookup function to allow lookup starting
from an arbitrary point in the namespace. This approach has been suggested
by Christoph Hellwig [2].
The second patch changes sunrpc to use vfs_path_lookup.
The third patch changes nfsctl.c to use vfs_path_lookup.
The fourth patch marks link_path_walk static.
The fifth, and last patch, unexports path_walk because it is no longer
unnecessary to call it directly, and using the new vfs_path_lookup is
cleaner.
For example, the following snippet of code, looks up "some/path/component"
in a directory pointed to by parent_{dentry,vfsmnt}:
err = vfs_path_lookup(parent_dentry, parent_vfsmnt,
"some/path/component", 0, &nd);
if (!err) {
/* exits */
...
/* once done, release the references */
path_release(&nd);
} else if (err == -ENOENT) {
/* doesn't exist */
} else {
/* other error */
}
VFS functions such as lookup_create can be used on the nameidata structure
to pass the create intent to the file system.
