Patch 0fed3ac8 improved the hash mixing, but the function is slower than necessary; there's a 7-instruction dependency chain (10 on x86) each loop iteration. Word-at-a-time access is a very tight loop (which is good, because link_path_walk() is one of the hottest code paths in the entire kernel), and the hash mixing function must not have a longer latency to avoid slowing it down. There do not appear to be any published fast hash functions that: 1) Operate on the input a word at a time, and 2) Don't need to know the length of the input beforehand, and 3) Have a single iterated mixing function, not needing conditional branches or unrolling to distinguish different loop iterations. One of the algorithms which comes closest is Yann Collet's xxHash, but that's two dependent multiplies per word, which is too much. The key insights in this design are: 1) Barring expensive ops like multiplies, to diffuse one input bit across 64 bits of hash state takes at least log2(64) = 6 sequentially dependent instructions. That is more cycles than we'd like. 2) An operation like "hash ^= hash << 13" requires a second temporary register anyway, and on a 2-operand machine like x86, it's three instructions. 3) A better use of a second register is to hold a two-word hash state. With careful design, no temporaries are needed at all, so it doesn't increase register pressure. And this gets rid of register copying on 2-operand machines, so the code is smaller and faster. 4) Using two words of state weakens the requirement for one-round mixing; we now have two rounds of mixing before cancellation is possible. 5) A two-word hash state also allows operations on both halves to be done in parallel, so on a superscalar processor we get more mixing in fewer cycles. I ended up using a mixing function inspired by the ChaCha and Speck round functions. It is 6 simple instructions and 3 cycles per iteration (assuming multiply by 9 can be done by an "lea" instruction): x ^= *input++; y ^= x; x = ROL(x, K1); x += y; y = ROL(y, K2); y *= 9; Not only is this reversible, two consecutive rounds are reversible: if you are given the initial and final states, but not the intermediate state, it is possible to compute both input words. This means that at least 3 words of input are required to create a collision. (It also has the property, used by hash_name() to avoid a branch, that it hashes all-zero to all-zero.) The rotate constants K1 and K2 were found by experiment. The search took a sample of random initial states (I used 1023) and considered the effect of flipping each of the 64 input bits on each of the 128 output bits two rounds later. Each of the 8192 pairs can be considered a biased coin, and adding up the Shannon entropy of all of them produces a score. The best-scoring shifts also did well in other tests (flipping bits in y, trying 3 or 4 rounds of mixing, flipping all 64*63/2 pairs of input bits), so the choice was made with the additional constraint that the sum of the shifts is odd and not too close to the word size. The final state is then folded into a 32-bit hash value by a less carefully optimized multiply-based scheme. This also has to be fast, as pathname components tend to be short (the most common case is one iteration!), but there's some room for latency, as there is a fair bit of intervening logic before the hash value is used for anything. (Performance verified with "bonnie++ -s 0 -n 1536:-2" on tmpfs. I need a better benchmark; the numbers seem to show a slight dip in performance between 4.6.0 and this patch, but they're too noisy to quote.)

We'd like to make more use of the highly-optimized dcache hash functions throughout the kernel, rather than have every subsystem create its own, and a function that hashes basic null-terminated strings is required for that. (The name is to emphasize that it returns both hash and length.) It's actually useful in the dcache itself, specifically d_alloc_name(). Other uses in the next patch. full_name_hash() is also tweaked to make it more generally useful: 1) Take a "char *" rather than "unsigned char *" argument, to be consistent with hash_name(). 2) Handle zero-length inputs. If we want more callers, we don't want to make them worry about corner cases. Signed-off-by: NGeorge Spelvin <linux@sciencehorizons.net>

Overlayfs needs lookup without inode_permission() and already has the name hash (in form of dentry->d_name on overlayfs dentry). It also doesn't support filesystems with d_op->d_hash() so basically it only needs the actual hashed lookup from lookup_one_len_unlocked() So add a new helper that does unlocked lookup of a hashed name.

If a file is renamed to a hardlink of itself POSIX specifies that rename(2) should do nothing and return success. This condition is checked in vfs_rename(). However it won't detect hard links on overlayfs where these are given separate inodes on the overlayfs layer. Overlayfs itself detects this condition and returns success without doing anything, but then vfs_rename() will proceed as if this was a successful rename (detach_mounts(), d_move()). The correct thing to do is to detect this condition before even calling into overlayfs. This patch does this by calling vfs_select_inode() to get the underlying inodes.

* if we have a hashed negative dentry and either CREAT|EXCL on r/o filesystem, or CREAT|TRUNC on r/o filesystem, or CREAT|EXCL with failing may_o_create(), we should fail with EROFS or the error may_o_create() has returned, but not ENOENT. Which is what the current code ends up returning. * if we have CREAT|TRUNC hitting a regular file on a read-only filesystem, we can't fail with EROFS here. At the very least, not until we'd done follow_managed() - we might have a writable file (or a device, for that matter) bound on top of that one. Moreover, the code downstream will see that O_TRUNC and attempt to grab the write access (*after* following possible mount), so if we really should fail with EROFS, it will happen. No need to do that inside atomic_open(). The real logics is much simpler than what the current code is trying to do - if we decided to go for simple lookup, ended up with a negative dentry *and* had create_error set, fail with create_error. No matter whether we'd got that negative dentry from lookup_real() or had found it in dcache.

We need information about exports when crossing mountpoints during lookup or NFSv4 readdir. If we don't already have that information cached, we may have to ask (and wait for) rpc.mountd. In both cases we currently hold the i_mutex on the parent of the directory we're asking rpc.mountd about. We've seen situations where rpc.mountd performs some operation on that directory that tries to take the i_mutex again, resulting in deadlock. With some care, we may be able to avoid that in rpc.mountd. But it seems better just to avoid holding a mutex while waiting on userspace. It appears that lookup_one_len is pretty much the only operation that needs the i_mutex. So we could just drop the i_mutex elsewhere and do something like mutex_lock() lookup_one_len() mutex_unlock() In many cases though the lookup would have been cached and not required the i_mutex, so it's more efficient to create a lookup_one_len() variant that only takes the i_mutex when necessary.

new method: ->get_link(); replacement of ->follow_link(). The differences are: * inode and dentry are passed separately * might be called both in RCU and non-RCU mode; the former is indicated by passing it a NULL dentry. * when called that way it isn't allowed to block and should return ERR_PTR(-ECHILD) if it needs to be called in non-RCU mode. It's a flagday change - the old method is gone, all in-tree instances converted. Conversion isn't hard; said that, so far very few instances do not immediately bail out when called in RCU mode.

Attempting to hardlink to an unsafe file (e.g. a setuid binary) from within an unprivileged user namespace fails, even if CAP_FOWNER is held within the namespace. This may cause various failures, such as a gentoo installation within a lxc container failing to build and install specific packages. This change permits hardlinking of files owned by mapped uids, if CAP_FOWNER is held for that namespace. Furthermore, it improves consistency by using the existing inode_owner_or_capable(), which is aware of namespaced capabilities as of 23adbe12 ("fs,userns: Change inode_capable to capable_wrt_inode_uidgid").

In rare cases a directory can be renamed out from under a bind mount. In those cases without special handling it becomes possible to walk up the directory tree to the root dentry of the filesystem and down from the root dentry to every other file or directory on the filesystem. Like division by zero .. from an unconnected path can not be given a useful semantic as there is no predicting at which path component the code will realize it is unconnected. We certainly can not match the current behavior as the current behavior is a security hole. Therefore when encounting .. when following an unconnected path return -ENOENT. - Add a function path_connected to verify path->dentry is reachable from path->mnt.mnt_root. AKA to validate that rename did not do something nasty to the bind mount. To avoid races path_connected must be called after following a path component to it's next path component.
