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.

atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference counters with the following properties: - counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set() - a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero - once counter reaches zero, its further increments aren't allowed - counter schema uses basic atomic operations (set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.) Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows and underflows.

This will allow fanotify to wait for userspace response to event without having to hold onto fsnotify_mark_srcu. To avoid pinning inodes by elevated refcount (and thus e.g. delaying file deletion) while someone holds mark reference, we detach connector from the object also from fsnotify_destroy_marks() and not only after removing last mark from the list as it was now.

So far list of marks attached to an object (inode / vfsmount) was protected by i_lock or mnt_root->d_lock. This dictates that the list must be empty before the object can be destroyed although the list is now anchored in the fsnotify_mark_connector structure. Protect the list by a spinlock in the fsnotify_mark_connector structure to decouple lifetime of a list of marks from a lifetime of the object. This also simplifies the code quite a bit since we don't have to differentiate between inode and vfsmount lists in quite a few places anymore.

Currently notification marks are attached to object (inode or vfsmnt) by a hlist_head in the object. The list is also protected by a spinlock in the object. So while there is any mark attached to the list of marks, the object must be pinned in memory (and thus e.g. last iput() deleting inode cannot happen). Also for list iteration in fsnotify() to work, we must hold fsnotify_mark_srcu lock so that mark itself and mark->obj_list.next cannot get freed. Thus we are required to wait for response to fanotify events from userspace process with fsnotify_mark_srcu lock held. That causes issues when userspace process is buggy and does not reply to some event - basically the whole notification subsystem gets eventually stuck. So to be able to drop fsnotify_mark_srcu lock while waiting for response, we have to pin the mark in memory and make sure it stays in the object list (as removing the mark waiting for response could lead to lost notification events for groups later in the list). However we don't want inode reclaim to block on such mark as that would lead to system just locking up elsewhere. This commit is the first in the series that paves way towards solving these conflicting lifetime needs. Instead of anchoring the list of marks directly in the object, we anchor it in a dedicated structure (fsnotify_mark_connector) and just point to that structure from the object. The following commits will also add spinlock protecting the list and object pointer to the structure.

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.

There are only two calls sites of fsnotify_duplicate_mark(). Those are in kernel/audit_tree.c and both are bogus. Vfsmount pointer is unused for audit tree, inode pointer and group gets set in fsnotify_add_mark_locked() later anyway, mask and free_mark are already set in alloc_chunk(). In fact, calling fsnotify_duplicate_mark() is actively harmful because following fsnotify_add_mark_locked() will leak group reference by overwriting the group pointer. So just remove the two calls to fsnotify_duplicate_mark() and the function.

Fanotify code has its own lock (access_lock) to protect a list of events waiting for a response from userspace. However this is somewhat awkward as the same list_head in the event is protected by notification_lock if it is part of the notification queue and by access_lock if it is part of the fanotify private queue which makes it difficult for any reliable checks in the generic code. So make fanotify use the same lock - notification_lock - for protecting its private event list.

fanotify_get_response() calls fsnotify_remove_event() when it finds that group is being released from fanotify_release() (bypass_perm is set). However the event it removes need not be only in the group's notification queue but it can have already moved to access_list (userspace read the event before closing the fanotify instance fd) which is protected by a different lock. Thus when fsnotify_remove_event() races with fanotify_release() operating on access_list, the list can get corrupted. Fix the problem by moving all the logic removing permission events from the lists to one place - fanotify_release().

Background: spufs used to mangle the order in which it had been building dentry trees. It was broken in a lot of ways, but most of them required the right timing to trigger until an fsnotify change had added one more - the one that was always triggered. Unfortunately, insteading of fixing their long-standing bug the spufs folks had chosen to paper over the fsnotify trigger. Eventually said bug had been spotted and killed off, but the pointless check in fsnotify has remained, complete with the implication that one *could* do that kind of crap. Again, a parent of any dentry should always be positive. Any code can rely upon that and anything violating that assert is a bug, *not* something to be accomodated.

Inotify instance is destroyed when all references to it are dropped. That not only means that the corresponding file descriptor needs to be closed but also that all corresponding instance marks are freed (as each mark holds a reference to the inotify instance). However marks are freed only after SRCU period ends which can take some time and thus if user rapidly creates and frees inotify instances, number of existing inotify instances can exceed max_user_instances limit although from user point of view there is always at most one existing instance. Thus inotify_init() returns EMFILE error which is hard to justify from user point of view. This problem is exposed by LTP inotify06 testcase on some machines. We fix the problem by making sure all group marks are properly freed while destroying inotify instance. We wait for SRCU period to end in that path anyway since we have to make sure there is no event being added to the instance while we are tearing down the instance. So it takes only some plumbing to allow for marks to be destroyed in that path as well and not from a dedicated work item.

This reverts commit c510eff6 ("fsnotify: destroy marks with call_srcu instead of dedicated thread"). Eryu reported that he was seeing some OOM kills kick in when running a testcase that adds and removes inotify marks on a file in a tight loop. The above commit changed the code to use call_srcu to clean up the marks. While that does (in principle) work, the srcu callback job is limited to cleaning up entries in small batches and only once per jiffy. It's easily possible to overwhelm that machinery with too many call_srcu callbacks, and Eryu's reproduer did just that. There's also another potential problem with using call_srcu here. While you can obviously sleep while holding the srcu_read_lock, the callbacks run under local_bh_disable, so you can't sleep there. It's possible when putting the last reference to the fsnotify_mark that we'll end up putting a chain of references including the fsnotify_group, uid, and associated keys. While I don't see any obvious ways that that could occurs, it's probably still best to avoid using call_srcu here after all. This patch reverts the above patch. A later patch will take a different approach to eliminated the dedicated thread here.

At the time that this code was originally written, call_srcu didn't exist, so this thread was required to ensure that we waited for that SRCU grace period to settle before finally freeing the object. It does exist now however and we can much more efficiently use call_srcu to handle this. That also allows us to potentially use srcu_barrier to ensure that they are all of the callbacks have run before proceeding. In order to conserve space, we union the rcu_head with the g_list. This will be necessary for nfsd which will allocate marks from a dedicated slabcache. We have to be able to ensure that all of the objects are destroyed before destroying the cache.

fsnotify_destroy_mark_locked() is subtle to use because it temporarily releases group->mark_mutex. To avoid future problems with this function, split it into two. fsnotify_detach_mark() is the part that needs group->mark_mutex and fsnotify_free_mark() is the part that must be called outside of group->mark_mutex. This way it's much clearer what's going on and we also avoid some pointless acquisitions of group->mark_mutex.

Free list is used when all marks on given inode / mount should be destroyed when inode / mount is going away. However we can free all of the marks without using a special list with some care.

The process of reducing contention on per-superblock inode lists starts with moving the locking to match the per-superblock inode list. This takes the global lock out of the picture and reduces the contention problems to within a single filesystem. This doesn't get rid of contention as the locks still have global CPU scope, but it does isolate operations on different superblocks form each other.
