      proc: clean up and fix /proc/<pid>/mem handling · e268337d
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Jüri Aedla reported that the /proc/<pid>/mem handling really isn't very
      robust, and it also doesn't match the permission checking of any of the
      other related files.
      
      This changes it to do the permission checks at open time, and instead of
      tracking the process, it tracks the VM at the time of the open.  That
      simplifies the code a lot, but does mean that if you hold the file
      descriptor open over an execve(), you'll continue to read from the _old_
      VM.
      
      That is different from our previous behavior, but much simpler.  If
      somebody actually finds a load where this matters, we'll need to revert
      this commit.
      
      I suspect that nobody will ever notice - because the process mapping
      addresses will also have changed as part of the execve.  So you cannot
      actually usefully access the fd across a VM change simply because all
      the offsets for IO would have changed too.

      wake up s_wait_unfrozen when ->freeze_fs fails · e1616300
      Kazuya Mio 提交于
      dd slept infinitely when fsfeeze failed because of EIO.
      To fix this problem, if ->freeze_fs fails, freeze_super() wakes up
      the tasks waiting for the filesystem to become unfrozen.
      
      When s_frozen isn't SB_UNFROZEN in __generic_file_aio_write(),
      the function sleeps until FITHAW ioctl wakes up s_wait_unfrozen.
      
      However, if ->freeze_fs fails, s_frozen is set to SB_UNFROZEN and then
      freeze_super() returns an error number. In this case, FITHAW ioctl returns
      EINVAL because s_frozen is already SB_UNFROZEN. There is no way to wake up
      s_wait_unfrozen, so __generic_file_aio_write() sleeps infinitely.

      audit: do not call audit_getname on error · 4043cde8
      Eric Paris 提交于
      Just a code cleanup really.  We don't need to make a function call just for
      it to return on error.  This also makes the VFS function even easier to follow
      and removes a conditional on a hot path.

      audit: only allow tasks to set their loginuid if it is -1 · 633b4545
      Eric Paris 提交于
      At the moment we allow tasks to set their loginuid if they have
      CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL.  In reality we want tasks to set the loginuid when they
      log in and it be impossible to ever reset.  We had to make it mutable even
      after it was once set (with the CAP) because on update and admin might have
      to restart sshd.  Now sshd would get his loginuid and the next user which
      logged in using ssh would not be able to set his loginuid.
      
      Systemd has changed how userspace works and allowed us to make the kernel
      work the way it should.  With systemd users (even admins) are not supposed
      to restart services directly.  The system will restart the service for
      them.  Thus since systemd is going to loginuid==-1, sshd would get -1, and
      sshd would be allowed to set a new loginuid without special permissions.
      
      If an admin in this system were to manually start an sshd he is inserting
      himself into the system chain of trust and thus, logically, it's his
      loginuid that should be used!  Since we have old systems I make this a
      Kconfig option.

      With all the size field updates out of the way xfs_file_aio_write can

      xfs: remove the i_new_size field in struct xfs_inode · 2813d682
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      Now that we use the VFS i_size field throughout XFS there is no need for the
      i_new_size field any more given that the VFS i_size field gets updated
      in ->write_end before unlocking the page, and thus is always uptodate when
      writeback could see a page.  Removing i_new_size also has the advantage that
      we will never have to trim back di_size during a failed buffered write,
      given that it never gets updated past i_size.
      
      Note that currently the generic direct I/O code only updates i_size after
      calling our end_io handler, which requires a small workaround to make
      sure di_size actually makes it to disk.  I hope to fix this properly in
      the generic code.
      
      A downside is that we lose the support for parallel non-overlapping O_DIRECT
      appending writes that recently was added.  I don't think keeping the complex
      and fragile i_new_size infrastructure for this is a good tradeoff - if we
      really care about parallel appending writers we should investigate turning
      the iolock into a range lock, which would also allow for parallel
      non-overlapping buffered writers.

      xfs: remove the i_size field in struct xfs_inode · ce7ae151
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      There is no fundamental need to keep an in-memory inode size copy in the XFS
      inode.  We already have the on-disk value in the dinode, and the separate
      in-memory copy that we need for regular files only in the XFS inode.
      
      Remove the xfs_inode i_size field and change the XFS_ISIZE macro to use the
      VFS inode i_size field for regular files.  Switch code that was directly
      accessing the i_size field in the xfs_inode to XFS_ISIZE, or in cases where
      we are limited to regular files direct access of the VFS inode i_size field.
      
      This also allows dropping some fairly complicated code in the write path
      which dealt with keeping the xfs_inode i_size uptodate with the VFS i_size
      that is getting updated inside ->write_end.
      
      Note that we do not bother resetting the VFS i_size when truncating a file
      that gets freed to zero as there is no point in doing so because the VFS inode
      is no longer in use at this point.  Just relax the assert in xfs_ifree to
      only check the on-disk size instead.

      Replace i_pin_wait, which is only used during synchronous inode flushing
      with a bit waitqueue.  This trades off a much smaller inode against
      slightly slower wakeup performance, and saves 12 (32-bit) or 20 (64-bit)
      bytes in the XFS inode.

      xfs: replace i_flock with a sleeping bitlock · 474fce06
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      We almost never block on i_flock, the exception is synchronous inode
      flushing.  Instead of bloating the inode with a 16/24-byte completion
      that we abuse as a semaphore just implement it as a bitlock that uses
      a bit waitqueue for the rare sleeping path.  This primarily is a
      tradeoff between a much smaller inode and a faster non-blocking
      path vs faster wakeups, and we are much better off with the former.
      
      A small downside is that we will lose lockdep checking for i_flock, but
      given that it's always taken inside the ilock that should be acceptable.
      
      Note that for example the inode writeback locking is implemented in a
      very similar way.

      xfs: make i_flags an unsigned long · 49e4c70e
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      To be used for bit wakeup i_flags needs to be an unsigned long or we'll
      run into trouble on big endian systems.  Because of the 1-byte i_update
      field right after it this actually causes a fairly large size increase
      on its own (4 or 8 bytes), but that increase will be more than offset
      by the next two patches.

      to assert that the two stay in sync.  Just divide the fork size by the extent
      size in the few places that we actually use it and remove the overhead
      of maintaining it.  Also introduce a few helpers to consolidate the places
      where we actually care about the value.
