inotify will WARN() if it finds that the idr and the fsnotify internals somehow got out of sync. It was only supposed to do this once but due to this stupid bug it would warn every single time a problem was detected.

Since commit 7e790dd5 ("inotify: fix error paths in inotify_update_watch") inotify changed the manor in which it gave watch descriptors back to userspace. Previous to this commit inotify acted like the following: inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 1 inotify_rm_watch(X, 1); inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 2 but after this patch inotify would return watch descriptors like so: inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 1 inotify_rm_watch(X, 1); inotify_add_watch(X, Y, Z) = 1 which I saw as equivalent to opening an fd where open(file) = 1; close(1); open(file) = 1; seemed perfectly reasonable. The issue is that quite a bit of userspace apparently relies on the behavior in which watch descriptors will not be quickly reused. KDE relies on it, I know some selinux packages rely on it, and I have heard complaints from other random sources such as debian bug 558981. Although the man page implies what we do is ok, we broke userspace so this patch almost reverts us to the old behavior. It is still slightly racey and I have patches that would fix that, but they are rather large and this will fix it for all real world cases. The race is as follows: - task1 creates a watch and blocks in idr_new_watch() before it updates the hint. - task2 creates a watch and updates the hint. - task1 updates the hint with it's older wd - task removes the watch created by task2 - task adds a new watch and will reuse the wd originally given to task2 it requires moving some locking around the hint (last_wd) but this should solve it for the real world and be -stable safe. As a side effect this patch papers over a bug in the lib/idr code which is causing a large number WARN's to pop on people's system and many reports in kerneloops.org. I'm working on the root cause of that idr bug seperately but this should make inotify immune to that issue.

Mask off FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD in dnotify_handle_event(). Otherwise, when there is more than one watch on a directory and dnotify_should_send_event() succeeds, events with FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD set will trigger all watches and cause spurious events.

fsnotify_add_mark is supposed to add a mark to the g_list and i_list and to set the group and inode for the mark. fsnotify_destroy_mark_by_entry uses the fact that ->group != NULL to know if this group should be destroyed or if it's already been done. But fsnotify_add_mark sets the group and inode before it actually adds the mark to the i_list and g_list. This can result in a race in inotify, it requires 3 threads. sys_inotify_add_watch("file") sys_inotify_add_watch("file") sys_inotify_rm_watch([a]) inotify_update_watch() inotify_new_watch() inotify_add_to_idr() ^--- returns wd = [a] inotfiy_update_watch() inotify_new_watch() inotify_add_to_idr() fsnotify_add_mark() ^--- returns wd = [b] returns to userspace; inotify_idr_find([a]) ^--- gives us the pointer from task 1 fsnotify_add_mark() ^--- this is going to set the mark->group and mark->inode fields, but will return -EEXIST because of the race with [b]. fsnotify_destroy_mark() ^--- since ->group != NULL we call back into inotify_freeing_mark() which calls inotify_remove_from_idr([a]) since fsnotify_add_mark() failed we call: inotify_remove_from_idr([a]) <------WHOOPS it's not in the idr, this could have been any entry added later! The fix is to make sure we don't set mark->group until we are sure the mark is on the inode and fsnotify_add_mark will return success. Signed-off-by: NEric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>

Before the rewrite copy_event_to_user always wrote a terqminating '\0' byte to user space after the filename. Since the rewrite that terminating byte was skipped if your filename is exactly a multiple of event_size. Ouch! So add one byte to name_size before we round up and use clear_user to set userspace to zero like /dev/zero does instead of copying the strange nul_inotify_event. I can't quite convince myself len_to_zero will never exceed 16 and even if it doesn't clear_user should be more efficient and a more accurate reflection of what the code is trying to do.

The inotify_add_watch man page specifies that inotify_add_watch() will return a non-negative integer. However, historically the inotify watches started at 1, not at 0. Turns out that the inotifywait program provided by the inotify-tools package doesn't properly handle a 0 watch descriptor. In 7e790dd5 we changed from starting at 1 to starting at 0. This patch starts at 1, just like in previous kernels, but also just like in previous kernels it's possible for it to wrap back to 0. This preserves the kernel functionality exactly like it was before the patch (neither method broke the spec) Signed-off-by: NEric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

fsnotify drops new events when they are the same as the tail event on the queue to be sent to userspace. The problem is that if the event comes with a path we forget to break out of the switch statement and fall into the code path which matches on events that do not have any type of file backed information (things like IN_UNMOUNT and IN_Q_OVERFLOW). The problem is that this code thinks all such events should be dropped. Fix is to add a break. Signed-off-by: NEric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>

inotify drops events if the last event on the queue is the same as the current event. But it does 2 things wrong. First it is comparing old->inode with new->inode. But after an event if put on the queue the ->inode is no longer allowed to be used. It's possible between the last event and this new event the inode could be reused and we would falsely match the inode's memory address between two differing events. The second problem is that when a file is removed fsnotify is passed the negative dentry for the removed object rather than the postive dentry from immediately before the removal. This mean the (broken) inotify tail drop code was matching the NULL ->inode of differing events. The fix is to check the file name which is stored with events when doing the tail drop instead of wrongly checking the address of the stored ->inode.

inotify_update_watch could leave things in a horrid state on a number of error paths. We could try to remove idr entries that didn't exist, we could send an IN_IGNORED to userspace for watches that don't exist, and a bit of other stupidity. Clean these up by doing the idr addition before we put the mark on the inode since we can clean that up on error and getting off the inode's mark list is hard.

inotify_add_watch had a couple of problems. The biggest being that if inotify_add_watch was called on the same inode twice (to update or change the event mask) a refence was taken on the original inode mark by fsnotify_find_mark_entry but was not being dropped at the end of the inotify_add_watch call. Thus if inotify_rm_watch was called although the mark was removed from the inode, the refcnt wouldn't hit zero and we would leak memory.

inotify_destroy_mark_entry could get called twice for the same mark since it is called directly in inotify_rm_watch and when the mark is being destroyed for another reason. As an example assume that the file being watched was just deleted so inotify_destroy_mark_entry would get called from the path fsnotify_inoderemove() -> fsnotify_destroy_marks_by_inode() -> fsnotify_destroy_mark_entry() -> inotify_destroy_mark_entry(). If this happened at the same time as userspace tried to remove a watch via inotify_rm_watch we could attempt to remove the mark from the idr twice and could thus double dec the ref cnt and potentially could be in a use after free/double free situation. The fix is to have inotify_rm_watch use the generic recursive safe fsnotify_destroy_mark_by_entry() so we are sure the inotify_destroy_mark_entry() function can only be called one. This patch also renames the function to inotify_ingored_remove_idr() so it is clear what is actually going on in the function.

This patch pins any inodes with an fsnotify mark in core. The idea is that as soon as the mark is removed from the inode->fsnotify_mark_entries list the inode will be iput. In reality is doesn't quite work exactly this way. The igrab will happen when the mark is added to an inode, but the iput will happen when the inode pointer is NULL'd inside the mark. It's possible that 2 racing things will try to remove the mark from different directions. One may try to remove the mark because of an explicit request and one might try to remove it because the inode was deleted. It's possible that the removal because of inode deletion will remove the mark from the inode's list, but the removal by explicit request will actually set entry->inode == NULL; and call the iput.
