Parallel to FILE_CREATED, goes into ->f_mode instead of *opened. NFS is a bit of a wart here - it doesn't have file at the point where FILE_CREATED used to be set, so we need to propagate it there (for now). IMA is another one (here and everywhere)... Note that this needs do_dentry_open() to leave old bits in ->f_mode alone - we want it to preserve FMODE_CREATED if it had been already set (no other bit can be there).

These checks are better off in do_dentry_open(); the reason we couldn't put them there used to be that callers couldn't tell what kind of cleanup would do_dentry_open() failure call for. Now that we have FMODE_OPENED, cleanup is the same in all cases - it's simply fput(). So let's fold that into do_dentry_open(), as Christoph's patch tried to.

Alter the dynroot mount so that cells created by manipulation of /proc/fs/afs/cells and /proc/fs/afs/rootcell and by specification of a root cell as a module parameter will cause directories for those cells to be created in the dynamic root superblock for the network namespace[*]. To this end: (1) Only one dynamic root superblock is now created per network namespace and this is shared between all attempts to mount it. This makes it easier to find the superblock to modify. (2) When a dynamic root superblock is created, the list of cells is walked and directories created for each cell already defined. (3) When a new cell is added, if a dynamic root superblock exists, a directory is created for it. (4) When a cell is destroyed, the directory is removed. (5) These directories are created by calling lookup_one_len() on the root dir which automatically creates them if they don't exist. [*] Inasmuch as network namespaces are currently supported here.

The kmalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kmalloc_array(). This patch replaces cases of: kmalloc(a * b, gfp) with: kmalloc_array(a * b, gfp) as well as handling cases of: kmalloc(a * b * c, gfp) with: kmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp) as it's slightly less ugly than: kmalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp) This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like: kmalloc(4 * 1024, gfp) though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion. Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were dropped, since they're redundant. The tools/ directory was manually excluded, since it has its own implementation of kmalloc(). The Coccinelle script used for this was: // Fix redundant parens around sizeof(). @@ type TYPE; expression THING, E; @@ ( kmalloc( - (sizeof(TYPE)) * E + sizeof(TYPE) * E , ...) | kmalloc( - (sizeof(THING)) * E + sizeof(THING) * E , ...) ) // Drop single-byte sizes and redundant parens. @@ expression COUNT;

This reverts commit cab64df1. Having vfs_open() in some cases drop the reference to struct file combined with error = vfs_open(path, f, cred); if (error) { put_filp(f); return ERR_PTR(error); } return f; is flat-out wrong. It used to be error = vfs_open(path, f, cred); if (!error) { /* from now on we need fput() to dispose of f */ error = open_check_o_direct(f); if (error) { fput(f); f = ERR_PTR(error); } } else { put_filp(f); f = ERR_PTR(error); } and sure, having that open_check_o_direct() boilerplate gotten rid of is nice, but not that way... Worse, another call chain (via finish_open()) is FUBAR now wrt FILE_OPENED handling - in that case we get error returned, with file already hit by fput() *AND* FILE_OPENED not set. Guess what happens in path_openat(), when it hits if (!(opened & FILE_OPENED)) { BUG_ON(!error); put_filp(file); } The root cause of all that crap is that the callers of do_dentry_open() have no way to tell which way did it fail; while that could be fixed up (by passing something like int *opened to do_dentry_open() and have it marked if we'd called ->open()), it's probably much too late in the cycle to do so right now.

Once upon a time ->rmdir() instances used to check if victim inode had more than one (in-core) reference and failed with -EBUSY if it had. The reason was race avoidance - emptiness check is worthless if somebody could just go and create new objects in the victim directory afterwards. With introduction of dcache the checks had been replaced with checking the refcount of dentry. However, since a cached negative lookup leaves a negative child dentry, such check had lead to false positives - with empty foo/ doing stat foo/bar before rmdir foo ended up with -EBUSY unless the negative dentry of foo/bar happened to be evicted by the time of rmdir(2). That had been fixed by doing shrink_dcache_parent() just before the refcount check. At the same time, ext2_rmdir() has grown a private solution that eliminated those -EBUSY - it did something (setting ->i_size to 0) which made any subsequent ext2_add_entry() fail. Unfortunately, even with shrink_dcache_parent() the check had been racy - after all, the victim itself could be found by dcache lookup just after we'd checked its refcount. That got fixed by a new helper (dentry_unhash()) that did shrink_dcache_parent() and unhashed the sucker if its refcount ended up equal to 1. That got called before ->rmdir(), turning the checks in ->rmdir() instances into "if not unhashed fail with -EBUSY". Which reduced the boilerplate nicely, but had an unpleasant side effect - now shrink_dcache_parent() had been done before the emptiness checks, leading to easily triggerable calls of shrink_dcache_parent() on arbitrary large subtrees, quite possibly nested into each other. Several years later the ext2-private trick had been generalized - (in-core) inodes of dead directories are flagged and calls of lookup, readdir and all directory-modifying methods were prevented in so marked directories. Remaining boilerplate in ->rmdir() instances became redundant and some instances got rid of it. In 2011 the call of dentry_unhash() got shifted into ->rmdir() instances and then killed off in all of them. That has lead to another problem, though - in case of successful rmdir we *want* any (negative) child dentries dropped and the victim itself made negative. There's no point keeping cached negative lookups in foo when we can get the negative lookup of foo itself cached. So shrink_dcache_parent() call had been restored; unfortunately, it went into the place where dentry_unhash() used to be, i.e. before the ->rmdir() call. Note that we don't unhash anymore, so any "is it busy" checks would be racy; fortunately, all of them are gone. We should've done that call right *after* successful ->rmdir(). That reduces contention caused by tree-walking in shrink_dcache_parent() and, especially, contention caused by evictions in two nested subtrees going on in parallel. The same goes for directory-overwriting rename() - the story there had been parallel to that of rmdir(). Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

If the uids or gids are invalid (aka not known to the kernel) writing the inode back may change the uid or gid in the filesystem.

Using the fs-internal do_linkat() helper allows us to get rid of fs-internal calls to the sys_linkat() syscall. Introducing the ksys_link() wrapper allows us to avoid the in-kernel calls to sys_link() syscall. The ksys_ prefix denotes that this function is meant as a drop-in replacement for the syscall. In particular, it uses the same calling convention as sys_link(). In the near future, the only fs-external user of ksys_link() should be converted to use vfs_link() instead. This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls. On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined.

I noticed that offsetof(struct filename, iname) is actually 28 on 64 bit platforms, so we always pass an unaligned pointer to strncpy_from_user. This is mostly a problem for those 64 bit platforms without HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS, but even on x86_64, unaligned accesses carry a penalty. A user-space microbenchmark doing nothing but strncpy_from_user from the same (aligned) source string runs about 5% faster when the destination is aligned. That number increases to 20% when the string is long enough (~32 bytes) that we cross a cache line boundary - that's for example the case for about half the files a "git status" in a kernel tree ends up stat'ing. This won't make any real-life workloads 5%, or even 1%, faster, but path lookup is common enough that cutting even a few cycles should be worthwhile. So ensure we always pass an aligned destination pointer to strncpy_from_user. Instead of explicit padding, simply swap the refcnt and aname members, as suggested by Al Viro.

On nfsv2 and nfsv3 the nfs server can export subsets of the same filesystem and report the same filesystem identifier, so that the nfs client can know they are the same filesystem. The subsets can be from disjoint directory trees. The nfsv2 and nfsv3 filesystems provides no way to find the common root of all directory trees exported form the server with the same filesystem identifier. The practical result is that in struct super s_root for nfs s_root is not necessarily the root of the filesystem. The nfs mount code sets s_root to the root of the first subset of the nfs filesystem that the kernel mounts. This effects the dcache invalidation code in generic_shutdown_super currently called shrunk_dcache_for_umount and that code for years has gone through an additional list of dentries that might be dentry trees that need to be freed to accomodate nfs. When I wrote path_connected I did not realize nfs was so special, and it's hueristic for avoiding calling is_subdir can fail. The practical case where this fails is when there is a move of a directory from the subtree exposed by one nfs mount to the subtree exposed by another nfs mount. This move can happen either locally or remotely. With the remote case requiring that the move directory be cached before the move and that after the move someone walks the path to where the move directory now exists and in so doing causes the already cached directory to be moved in the dcache through the magic of d_splice_alias. If someone whose working directory is in the move directory or a subdirectory and now starts calling .. from the initial mount of nfs (where s_root == mnt_root), then path_connected as a heuristic will not bother with the is_subdir check. As s_root really is not the root of the nfs filesystem this heuristic is wrong, and the path may actually not be connected and path_connected can fail. The is_subdir function might be cheap enough that we can call it unconditionally. Verifying that will take some benchmarking and the result may not be the same on all kernels this fix needs to be backported to. So I am avoiding that for now. Filesystems with snapshots such as nilfs and btrfs do something similar. But as the directory tree of the snapshots are disjoint from one another and from the main directory tree rename won't move things between them and this problem will not occur.

So just fold it back into inode_permission(). Signed-off-by: NEric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com> Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Similar to vfs_create(), but with caller-supplied callback (and argument for it) to be used instead of ->create(). Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

When vfs_submount was added the test to limit automounts from filesystems that with s_user_ns != &init_user_ns accidentially left in follow_automount. The test was never about any security concerns and was always about how do we implement this for filesystems whose s_user_ns != &init_user_ns. At the moment this check makes no difference as there are no filesystems that both set FS_USERNS_MOUNT and implement d_automount. Remove this check now while I am thinking about it so there will not be odd booby traps for someone who does want to make this combination work. vfs_submount still needs improvements to allow this combination to work, and vfs_submount contains a check that presents a warning. The autofs4 filesystem could be modified to set FS_USERNS_MOUNT and it would need not work on this code path, as userspace performs the mounts.

Commit 42f46148 ("autofs: fix AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT not being honored") allowed the fstatat(2) system call to properly honor the AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT flag but introduced a semantic change. In order to honor AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT a semantic change was made to the negative dentry case for stat family system calls in follow_automount(). This changed the unconditional triggering of an automount in this case to no longer be done and an error returned instead. This has caused more problems than I expected so reverting the change is needed. In a discussion with Neil Brown it was concluded that the automount(8) daemon can implement this change without kernel modifications. So that will be done instead and the autofs module documentation updated with a description of the problem and what needs to be done by module users for this specific case.
