      fsnotify: remove redundant arguments to handle_event() · 5b0457ad
      Amir Goldstein 提交于
      inode_mark and vfsmount_mark arguments are passed to handle_event()
      operation as function arguments as well as on iter_info struct.
      The difference is that iter_info struct may contain marks that should
      not be handled and are represented as NULL arguments to inode_mark or
      vfsmount_mark.
      
      Instead of passing the inode_mark and vfsmount_mark arguments, add
      a report_mask member to iter_info struct to indicate which marks should
      be handled, versus marks that should only be kept alive during user
      wait.
      
      This change is going to be used for passing more mark types
      with handle_event() (i.e. super block marks).

      License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license · b2441318
      Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于
      Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
      makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
      
      By default all files without license information are under the default
      license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
      
      Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
      SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
      shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
      
      This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
      Philippe Ombredanne.
      
      How this work was done:
      
      Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
      the use cases:
       - file had no licensing information it it.
       - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
       - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
      
      Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
      where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
      had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
      
      The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
      a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
      output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
      tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
      base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
      
      The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
      assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
      results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
      to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
      immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
      Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
       - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
       - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
         lines of source
       - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
         lines).
      
      All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
      
      The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
      identifiers to apply.
      
       - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
         considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
         COPYING file license applied.
      
         For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|-------
         GPL-2.0                                              11139
      
         and resulted in the first patch in this series.
      
         If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
         Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|-------
         GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930
      
         and resulted in the second patch in this series.
      
       - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
         of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
         any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
         it (per prior point).  Results summary:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|------
         GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
         GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
         LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
         GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
         ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
         LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
         LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1
      
         and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
      
       - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
         the concluded license(s).
      
       - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
         license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
         licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
      
       - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
         resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
         which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
      
       - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
         confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
       - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
         the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
         in time.
      
      In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
      spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
      source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
      by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
      Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
      FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
      disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
      Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
      they are related.
      
      Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
      for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
      files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
      in about 15000 files.
      
      In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
      copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
      correct identifier.
      
      Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
      inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
      version early this week with:
       - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
         license ids and scores
       - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
         files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
       - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
         was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
         SPDX license was correct
      
      This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
      worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
      different types of files to be modified.
      
      These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
      parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
      format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
      based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
      distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
      comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
      generate the patches.

      inotify: Convert to using per-namespace limits · 1cce1eea
      Nikolay Borisov 提交于
      This patchset converts inotify to using the newly introduced
      per-userns sysctl infrastructure.
      
      Currently the inotify instances/watches are being accounted in the
      user_struct structure. This means that in setups where multiple
      users in unprivileged containers map to the same underlying
      real user (i.e. pointing to the same user_struct) the inotify limits
      are going to be shared as well, allowing one user(or application) to exhaust
      all others limits.
      
      Fix this by switching the inotify sysctls to using the
      per-namespace/per-user limits. This will allow the server admin to
      set sensible global limits, which can further be tuned inside every
      individual user namespace. Additionally, in order to preserve the
      sysctl ABI make the existing inotify instances/watches sysctls
      modify the values of the initial user namespace.

      inotify: Fix reporting of cookies for inotify events · 45a22f4c
      Jan Kara 提交于
      My rework of handling of notification events (namely commit 7053aee2
      "fsnotify: do not share events between notification groups") broke
      sending of cookies with inotify events. We didn't propagate the value
      passed to fsnotify() properly and passed 4 uninitialized bytes to
      userspace instead (so it is also an information leak). Sadly I didn't
      notice this during my testing because inotify cookies aren't used very
      much and LTP inotify tests ignore them.
      
      Fix the problem by passing the cookie value properly.

      fsnotify: do not share events between notification groups · 7053aee2
      Jan Kara 提交于
      Currently fsnotify framework creates one event structure for each
      notification event and links this event into all interested notification
      groups.  This is done so that we save memory when several notification
      groups are interested in the event.  However the need for event
      structure shared between inotify & fanotify bloats the event structure
      so the result is often higher memory consumption.
      
      Another problem is that fsnotify framework keeps path references with
      outstanding events so that fanotify can return open file descriptors
      with its events.  This has the undesirable effect that filesystem cannot
      be unmounted while there are outstanding events - a regression for
      inotify compared to a situation before it was converted to fsnotify
      framework.  For fanotify this problem is hard to avoid and users of
      fanotify should kind of expect this behavior when they ask for file
      descriptors from notified files.
      
      This patch changes fsnotify and its users to create separate event
      structure for each group.  This allows for much simpler code (~400 lines
      removed by this patch) and also smaller event structures.  For example
      on 64-bit system original struct fsnotify_event consumes 120 bytes, plus
      additional space for file name, additional 24 bytes for second and each
      subsequent group linking the event, and additional 32 bytes for each
      inotify group for private data.  After the conversion inotify event
      consumes 48 bytes plus space for file name which is considerably less
      memory unless file names are long and there are several groups
      interested in the events (both of which are uncommon).  Fanotify event
      fits in 56 bytes after the conversion (fanotify doesn't care about file
      names so its events don't have to have it allocated).  A win unless
      there are four or more fanotify groups interested in the event.
      
      The conversion also solves the problem with unmount when only inotify is
      used as we don't have to grab path references for inotify events.

      inotify: inotify_destroy_mark_entry could get called twice · 528da3e9
      Eric Paris 提交于
      inotify_destroy_mark_entry could get called twice for the same mark since it
      is called directly in inotify_rm_watch and when the mark is being destroyed for
      another reason.  As an example assume that the file being watched was just
      deleted so inotify_destroy_mark_entry would get called from the path
      fsnotify_inoderemove() -> fsnotify_destroy_marks_by_inode() ->
      fsnotify_destroy_mark_entry() -> inotify_destroy_mark_entry().  If this
      happened at the same time as userspace tried to remove a watch via
      inotify_rm_watch we could attempt to remove the mark from the idr twice and
      could thus double dec the ref cnt and potentially could be in a use after
      free/double free situation.  The fix is to have inotify_rm_watch use the
      generic recursive safe fsnotify_destroy_mark_by_entry() so we are sure the
      inotify_destroy_mark_entry() function can only be called one.
      
      This patch also renames the function to inotify_ingored_remove_idr() so it is
      clear what is actually going on in the function.
      
      Hopefully this fixes:
