      ovl: do not cleanup unsupported index entries · fa0096e3
      Amir Goldstein 提交于
      With index=on, ovl_indexdir_cleanup() tries to cleanup invalid index
      entries (e.g. bad index name). This behavior could result in cleaning of
      entries created by newer kernels and is therefore undesirable.
      Instead, abort mount if such entries are encountered. We still cleanup
      'stale' entries and 'orphan' entries, both those cases can be a result
      of offline changes to lower and upper dirs.
      
      When encoutering an index entry of type directory or whiteout, kernel
      was supposed to fallback to read-only mount, but the fill_super()
      operation returns EROFS in this case instead of returning success with
      read-only mount flag, so mount fails when encoutering directory or
      whiteout index entries. Bless this behavior by returning -EINVAL on
      directory and whiteout index entries as we do for all unsupported index
      entries.

      ovl: handle ENOENT on index lookup · 7937a56f
      Amir Goldstein 提交于
      Treat ENOENT from index entry lookup the same way as treating a returned
      negative dentry. Apparently, either could be returned if file is not
      found, depending on the underlying file system.

      ovl: fix EIO from lookup of non-indexed upper · 6eaf0111
      Amir Goldstein 提交于
      Commit fbaf94ee ("ovl: don't set origin on broken lower hardlink")
      attempt to avoid the condition of non-indexed upper inode with lower
      hardlink as origin. If this condition is found, lookup returns EIO.
      
      The protection of commit mentioned above does not cover the case of lower
      that is not a hardlink when it is copied up (with either index=off/on)
      and then lower is hardlinked while overlay is offline.
      
      Changes to lower layer while overlayfs is offline should not result in
      unexpected behavior, so a permanent EIO error after creating a link in
      lower layer should not be considered as correct behavior.
      
      This fix replaces EIO error with success in cases where upper has origin
      but no index is found, or index is found that does not match upper
      inode. In those cases, lookup will not fail and the returned overlay inode
      will be hashed by upper inode instead of by lower origin inode.

      mm: treewide: remove GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flag · 0ee931c4
      Michal Hocko 提交于
      GFP_TEMPORARY was introduced by commit e12ba74d ("Group short-lived
      and reclaimable kernel allocations") along with __GFP_RECLAIMABLE.  It's
      primary motivation was to allow users to tell that an allocation is
      short lived and so the allocator can try to place such allocations close
      together and prevent long term fragmentation.  As much as this sounds
      like a reasonable semantic it becomes much less clear when to use the
      highlevel GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flag.  How long is temporary? Can the
      context holding that memory sleep? Can it take locks? It seems there is
      no good answer for those questions.
      
      The current implementation of GFP_TEMPORARY is basically GFP_KERNEL |
      __GFP_RECLAIMABLE which in itself is tricky because basically none of
      the existing caller provide a way to reclaim the allocated memory.  So
      this is rather misleading and hard to evaluate for any benefits.
      
      I have checked some random users and none of them has added the flag
      with a specific justification.  I suspect most of them just copied from
      other existing users and others just thought it might be a good idea to
      use without any measuring.  This suggests that GFP_TEMPORARY just
      motivates for cargo cult usage without any reasoning.
      
      I believe that our gfp flags are quite complex already and especially
      those with highlevel semantic should be clearly defined to prevent from
      confusion and abuse.  Therefore I propose dropping GFP_TEMPORARY and
      replace all existing users to simply use GFP_KERNEL.  Please note that
      SLAB users with shrinkers will still get __GFP_RECLAIMABLE heuristic and
      so they will be placed properly for memory fragmentation prevention.
      
      I can see reasons we might want some gfp flag to reflect shorterm
      allocations but I propose starting from a clear semantic definition and
      only then add users with proper justification.
      
      This was been brought up before LSF this year by Matthew [1] and it
      turned out that GFP_TEMPORARY really doesn't have a clear semantic.  It
      seems to be a heuristic without any measured advantage for most (if not
      all) its current users.  The follow up discussion has revealed that
      opinions on what might be temporary allocation differ a lot between
      developers.  So rather than trying to tweak existing users into a
      semantic which they haven't expected I propose to simply remove the flag
      and start from scratch if we really need a semantic for short term
      allocations.

      ovl: fix false positive ESTALE on lookup · 939ae4ef
      Amir Goldstein 提交于
      Commit b9ac5c27 ("ovl: hash overlay non-dir inodes by copy up origin")
      verifies that the origin lower inode stored in the overlayfs inode matched
      the inode of a copy up origin dentry found by lookup.
      
      There is a false positive result in that check when lower fs does not
      support file handles and copy up origin cannot be followed by file handle
      at lookup time.
      
      The false negative happens when finding an overlay inode in cache on a
      copied up overlay dentry lookup. The overlay inode still 'remembers' the
      copy up origin inode, but the copy up origin dentry is not available for
      verification.
      
      Relax the check in case copy up origin dentry is not available.
