      autofs4: remove hashed check in validate_wait() · 463aea1a
      Ian Kent 提交于
      The recent ->lookup() deadlock correction required the directory inode
      mutex to be dropped while waiting for expire completion.  We were
      concerned about side effects from this change and one has been identified.
      
      I saw several error messages.
      
      They cause autofs to become quite confused and don't really point to the
      actual problem.
      
      Things like:
      
      handle_packet_missing_direct:1376: can't find map entry for (43,1827932)
      
      which is usually totally fatal (although in this case it wouldn't be
      except that I treat is as such because it normally is).
      
      do_mount_direct: direct trigger not valid or already mounted
      /test/nested/g3c/s1/ss1
      
      which is recoverable, however if this problem is at play it can cause
      autofs to become quite confused as to the dependencies in the mount tree
      because mount triggers end up mounted multiple times.  It's hard to
      accurately check for this over mounting case and automount shouldn't need
      to if the kernel module is doing its job.
      
      There was one other message, similar in consequence of this last one but I
      can't locate a log example just now.
      
      When checking if a mount has already completed prior to adding a new mount
      request to the wait queue we check if the dentry is hashed and, if so, if
      it is a mount point.  But, if a mount successfully completed while we
      slept on the wait queue mutex the dentry must exist for the mount to have
      completed so the test is not really needed.
      
      Mounts can also be done on top of a global root dentry, so for the above
      case, where a mount request completes and the wait queue entry has already
      been removed, the hashed test returning false can cause an incorrect
      callback to the daemon.  Also, d_mountpoint() is not sufficient to check
      if a mount has completed for the multi-mount case when we don't have a
      real mount at the base of the tree.

      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.

      autofs4: cleanup expire code duplication · 56fcef75
      Ian Kent 提交于
      A significant portion of the autofs_dev_ioctl_expire() and
      autofs4_expire_multi() functions is duplicated code.  This patch cleans that
      up.
