      autofs4: Add v4 pseudo direct mount support · dd89f90d
      Ian Kent 提交于
      Version 4 of autofs provides a pseudo direct mount implementation
      that relies on directories at the leaves of a directory tree under
      an indirect mount to trigger mounts.
      
      This patch adds support for that functionality.

      autofs4: Add d_manage() dentry operation · b5b80177
      Ian Kent 提交于
      This patch required a previous patch to add the ->d_automount()
      dentry operation.
      
      Add a function to use the newly defined ->d_manage() dentry operation
      for blocking during mount and expire.
      
      Whether the VFS calls the dentry operations d_automount() and d_manage()
      is controled by the DMANAGED_AUTOMOUNT and DMANAGED_TRANSIT flags. autofs
      uses the d_automount() operation to callback to user space to request
      mount operations and the d_manage() operation to block walks into mounts
      that are under construction or destruction.
      
      In order to prevent these functions from being called unnecessarily the
      DMANAGED_* flags are cleared for cases which would cause this. In the
      common case the DMANAGED_AUTOMOUNT and DMANAGED_TRANSIT flags are both
      set for dentrys waiting to be mounted. The DMANAGED_TRANSIT flag is
      cleared upon successful mount request completion and set during expire
      runs, both during the dentry expire check, and if selected for expire,
      is left set until a subsequent successful mount request completes.
      
      The exception to this is the so-called rootless multi-mount which has
      no actual mount at its base. In this case the DMANAGED_AUTOMOUNT flag
      is cleared upon successful mount request completion as well and set
      again after a successful expire.

      Add a dentry op to allow processes to be held during pathwalk transit · cc53ce53
      David Howells 提交于
      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:

      	 [<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:

      	 [<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().

      autofs4 - remove ioctl mutex (bz23142) · de47de74
      Ian Kent 提交于
      With the recent changes to remove the BKL a mutex was added to the
      ioctl entry point for calls to the old ioctl interface. This mutex
      needs to be removed because of the need for the expire ioctl to call
      back to the daemon to perform a umount and receive a completion
      status (via another ioctl).
      
      This should be fine as the new ioctl interface uses much of the same
      code and it has been used without a mutex for around a year without
      issue, as was the original intention.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      autofs4: fix lookup deadlock · 8f63aaa8
      Ian Kent 提交于
      A deadlock can occur when user space uses a signal (autofs version 4 uses
      SIGCHLD for this) to effect expire completion.
      
      The order of events is:
      
      Expire process completes, but before being able to send SIGCHLD to it's parent
      ...
      
      Another process walks onto a different mount point and drops the directory
      inode semaphore prior to sending the request to the daemon as it must ...
      
      A third process does an lstat on on the expired mount point causing it to wait
      on expire completion (unfortunately) holding the directory semaphore.
      
      The mount request then arrives at the daemon which does an lstat and,
      deadlock.
      
      For some time I was concerned about releasing the directory semaphore around
      the expire wait in autofs4_lookup as well as for the mount call back.  I
      finally realized that the last round of changes in this function made the
      expiring dentry and the lookup dentry separate and distinct so the check and
      possible wait can be done anywhere prior to the mount call back.  This patch
      moves the check to just before the mount call back and inside the directory
      inode mutex release.
