To be on the safe side, it should be less fragile to exclude I_NEW inodes
from inode list scans by default (unless there is an important reason to
have them).

Normally they will get excluded (eg.  by zero refcount or writecount etc),
however it is a bit fragile for list walkers to know exactly what parts of
the inode state is set up and valid to test when in I_NEW.  So along these
lines, move I_NEW checks upward as well (sometimes taking I_FREEING etc
checks with them too -- this shouldn't be a problem should it?)

On umount two event will be dispatched to watcher:

1: inotify_dev_queue_event(.., IN_UNMOUNT,..)
2: remove_watch(watch, dev)
    ->inotify_dev_queue_event(.., IN_IGNORED, ..)

But if watcher has IN_ONESHOT bit set then the watcher will be released
inside first event.  Which result in accessing invalid object later.  IMHO
it is not pure regression.  This bug wasn't triggered while initial
inotify interface testing phase because of another bug in IN_ONESHOT
handling logic :)

Inotify watch removals suck violently.

To kick the watch out we need (in this order) inode->inotify_mutex and
ih->mutex.  That's fine if we have a hold on inode; however, for all
other cases we need to make damn sure we don't race with umount.  We can
*NOT* just grab a reference to a watch - inotify_unmount_inodes() will
happily sail past it and we'll end with reference to inode potentially
outliving its superblock.

Ideally we just want to grab an active reference to superblock if we
can; that will make sure we won't go into inotify_umount_inodes() until
we are done.  Cleanup is just deactivate_super().

However, that leaves a messy case - what if we *are* racing with
umount() and active references to superblock can't be acquired anymore?
We can bump ->s_count, grab ->s_umount, which will almost certainly wait
until the superblock is shut down and the watch in question is pining
for fjords.  That's fine, but there is a problem - we might have hit the
window between ->s_active getting to 0 / ->s_count - below S_BIAS (i.e.
the moment when superblock is past the point of no return and is heading
for shutdown) and the moment when deactivate_super() acquires
->s_umount.

We could just do drop_super() yield() and retry, but that's rather
antisocial and this stuff is luser-triggerable.  OTOH, having grabbed
->s_umount and having found that we'd got there first (i.e.  that
->s_root is non-NULL) we know that we won't race with
inotify_umount_inodes().

So we could grab a reference to watch and do the rest as above, just
with drop_super() instead of deactivate_super(), right? Wrong.  We had
to drop ih->mutex before we could grab ->s_umount.  So the watch
could've been gone already.

That still can be dealt with - we need to save watch->wd, do idr_find()
and compare its result with our pointer.  If they match, we either have
the damn thing still alive or we'd lost not one but two races at once,
the watch had been killed and a new one got created with the same ->wd
at the same address.  That couldn't have happened in inotify_destroy(),
but inotify_rm_wd() could run into that.  Still, "new one got created"
is not a problem - we have every right to kill it or leave it alone,
whatever's more convenient.

So we can use idr_find(...) == watch && watch->inode->i_sb == sb as
"grab it and kill it" check.  If it's been our original watch, we are
fine, if it's a newcomer - nevermind, just pretend that we'd won the
race and kill the fscker anyway; we are safe since we know that its
superblock won't be going away.

And yes, this is far beyond mere "not very pretty"; so's the entire
concept of inotify to start with.

There is a race between setting an inode's children's "parent watched" flag
when placing the first watch on a parent, and instantiating new children of
that parent: a child could miss having its flags set by
set_dentry_child_flags, but then inotify_d_instantiate might still see
!inotify_inode_watched.

The solution is to set_dentry_child_flags after adding the watch.  Locking is
taken care of, because both set_dentry_child_flags and inotify_d_instantiate
hold dcache_lock and child->d_locks.

There are many places in the kernel where the construction like

The code might look more descriptive and neat if using the macro

   list_first_entry(head, type, member) \

Here is the macro itself and the examples of its usage in the generic code.

The following series of patches introduces a kernel API for inotify,
making it possible for kernel modules to benefit from inotify's
mechanism for watching inodes.  With these patches, inotify will
maintain for each caller a list of watches (via an embedded struct
inotify_watch), where each inotify_watch is associated with a
corresponding struct inode.  The caller registers an event handler and
specifies for which filesystem events their event handler should be
called per inotify_watch.

While doing some inotify stress testing, I hit the following race.  In
inotify_release(), it's possible for a watch to be removed from the lists
in between dropping dev->mutex and taking inode->inotify_mutex.  The

removed.

Checking the dev's idr mapping will prevent a double list_del of the

I discovered on oprofile hunting on a SMP platform that dentry lookups were
slowed down because d_hash_mask, d_hash_shift and dentry_hashtable were in
a cache line that contained inodes_stat.  So each time inodes_stats is
changed by a cpu, other cpus have to refill their cache line.

This patch moves some variables to the __read_mostly section, in order to
avoid false sharing.  RCU dentry lookups can go full speed.

Previous inotify work avoidance is good when inotify is completely unused,
but it breaks down if even a single watch is in place anywhere in the
system.  Robin Holt notices that udev is one such culprit - it slows down a
512-thread application on a 512 CPU system from 6 seconds to 22 minutes.

Solve this by adding a flag in the dentry that tells inotify whether or not
its parent inode has a watch on it.  Event queueing to parent will skip
taking locks if this flag is cleared.  Setting and clearing of this flag on
all child dentries versus event delivery: this is no in terms of race
cases, and that was shown to be equivalent to always performing the check.

The essential behaviour is that activity occuring _after_ a watch has been
added and _before_ it has been removed, will generate events.

The below patch lets userspace have more control over the inodes that
inotify will watch.  It introduces two new flags.

        IN_ONLYDIR -- only watch the inode if it is a directory.
        This is needed to avoid the race that can occur when we want to be
        sure that we are watching a directory.

        IN_DONT_FOLLOW -- don't follow a symlink.  In combination
        with IN_ONLYDIR we can make sure that we don't watch the target of
        symlinks.

Fix a bug which was reported and diagnosed by
Stefan Jones <stefan.jones@churchillrandoms.co.uk>

IDR trees include a cache of idr_layer objects.  There's no way to destroy
this cache, so when we discard an overall idr tree we end up leaking some
memory.

Add and use idr_destroy() for this.  v9fs and infiniband also need to use
idr_destroy() to avoid leaks.

Or, we make the cache global, like radix_tree_preload().  Which is probably
better.  Later.

People have run into a problem when they do this:

watch (file1, all_events);
watch (file2, some_events);

if file2 is a hard link to file1, some events will be missed because by
default we replace the mask.  The patch below adds a flag IN_MASK_ADD which
will cause inotify to add to the existing mask if present.

Bypass an inotify-related fastpath spinlock and several function calls on

There is an off by one problem with idr_get_new_above.

The comment and function name suggest that it will return an id >
starting_id, but it actually returned an id >= starting_id, and kernel
callers other than inotify treated it as such.

The patch below fixes the comment, and fixes inotifys usage.  The
function name still doesn't match the behaviour, but it never did.

We are saving the wrong thing in ->last_wd.  We want the wd, not the
return value.

When you rm a watch, an IN_IGNORED event is sent down the event queue
with the watch descriptor that you just rm'd.

If you then add a watch you could get the ignored watch's wd and if you
haven't read the entire event queue, user space will think that it's
newly created watch was just ignored.

To avoid this problem we just use idr_get_new_above instead of
idr_get_new.

Change default inotify limits: Maximum instances per user to 128 and
maximum events per queue to 16k.  The max instances used to be 128; the
change to 8 was a mistake.  Memory consumption is fine.
