      kernfs: implement kernfs_get_parent(), kernfs_name/path() and friends · 3eef34ad
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      kernfs_node->parent and ->name are currently marked as "published"
      indicating that kernfs users may access them directly; however, those
      fields may get updated by kernfs_rename[_ns]() and unrestricted access
      may lead to erroneous values or oops.
      
      Protect ->parent and ->name updates with a irq-safe spinlock
      kernfs_rename_lock and implement the following accessors for these
      fields.
      
      * kernfs_name()		- format the node's name into the specified buffer
      * kernfs_path()		- format the node's path into the specified buffer
      * pr_cont_kernfs_name()	- pr_cont a node's name (doesn't need buffer)
      * pr_cont_kernfs_path()	- pr_cont a node's path (doesn't need buffer)
      * kernfs_get_parent()	- pin and return a node's parent
      
      All can be called under any context.  The recursive sysfs_pathname()
      in fs/sysfs/dir.c is replaced with kernfs_path() and
      sysfs_rename_dir_ns() is updated to use kernfs_get_parent() instead of
      dereferencing parent directly.

      kernfs: allow nodes to be created in the deactivated state · d35258ef
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Currently, kernfs_nodes are made visible to userland on creation,
      which makes it difficult for kernfs users to atomically succeed or
      fail creation of multiple nodes.  In addition, if something fails
      after creating some nodes, the created nodes might already be in use
      and their active refs need to be drained for removal, which has the
      potential to introduce tricky reverse locking dependency on active_ref
      depending on how the error path is synchronized.
      
      This patch introduces per-root flag KERNFS_ROOT_CREATE_DEACTIVATED.
      If set, all nodes under the root are created in the deactivated state
      and stay invisible to userland until explicitly enabled by the new
      kernfs_activate() API.  Also, nodes which have never been activated
      are guaranteed to bypass draining on removal thus allowing error paths
      to not worry about lockding dependency on active_ref draining.

      kernfs: add missing kernfs_active() checks in directory operations · b9c9dad0
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      kernfs_iop_lookup(), kernfs_dir_pos() and kernfs_dir_next_pos() were
      missing kernfs_active() tests before using the found kernfs_node.  As
      deactivated state is currently visible only while a node is being
      removed, this doesn't pose an actual problem.  e.g. lookup succeeding
      on a deactivated node doesn't harm anything as the eventual file
      operations are gonna fail and those failures are indistinguishible
      from the cases in which the lookups had happened before the node was
      deactivated.
      
      However, we're gonna allow new nodes to be created deactivated and
      then activated explicitly by the kernfs user when it sees fit.  This
      is to support atomically making multiple nodes visible to userland and
      thus those nodes must not be visible to userland before activated.
      
      Let's plug the lookup and readdir holes so that deactivated nodes are
      invisible to userland.

      kernfs: invoke dir_ops while holding active ref of the target node · 07c7530d
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      kernfs_dir_ops are currently being invoked without any active
      reference, which makes it tricky for the invoked operations to
      determine whether the objects associated those nodes are safe to
      access and will remain that way for the duration of such operations.
      
      kernfs already has active_ref mechanism to deal with this which makes
      the removal of a given node the synchronization point for gating the
      file operations.  There's no reason for dir_ops to be any different.
      Update the dir_ops handling so that active_ref is held while the
      dir_ops are executing.  This guarantees that while a dir_ops is
      executing the target nodes stay alive.
      
      As kernfs_dir_ops doesn't have any in-kernel user at this point, this
      doesn't affect anybody.

      kernfs, sysfs, driver-core: implement kernfs_remove_self() and its wrappers · 6b0afc2a
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Sometimes it's necessary to implement a node which wants to delete
      nodes including itself.  This isn't straightforward because of kernfs
      active reference.  While a file operation is in progress, an active
      reference is held and kernfs_remove() waits for all such references to
      drain before completing.  For a self-deleting node, this is a deadlock
      as kernfs_remove() ends up waiting for an active reference that itself
      is sitting on top of.
      
      This currently is worked around in the sysfs layer using
      sysfs_schedule_callback() which makes such removals asynchronous.
      While it works, it's rather cumbersome and inherently breaks
      synchronicity of the operation - the file operation which triggered
      the operation may complete before the removal is finished (or even
      started) and the removal may fail asynchronously.  If a removal
      operation is immmediately followed by another operation which expects
      the specific name to be available (e.g. removal followed by rename
      onto the same name), there's no way to make the latter operation
      reliable.
      
      The thing is there's no inherent reason for this to be asynchrnous.
      All that's necessary to do this synchronous is a dedicated operation
      which drops its own active ref and deactivates self.  This patch
      implements kernfs_remove_self() and its wrappers in sysfs and driver
      core.  kernfs_remove_self() is to be called from one of the file
      operations, drops the active ref the task is holding, removes the self
      node, and restores active ref to the dead node so that the ref is
      balanced afterwards.  __kernfs_remove() is updated so that it takes an
      early exit if the target node is already fully removed so that the
      active ref restored by kernfs_remove_self() after removal doesn't
      confuse the deactivation path.
      
      This makes implementing self-deleting nodes very easy.  The normal
      removal path doesn't even need to be changed to use
      kernfs_remove_self() for the self-deleting node.  The method can
      invoke kernfs_remove_self() on itself before proceeding the normal
      removal path.  kernfs_remove() invoked on the node by the normal
      deletion path will simply be ignored.
      
      This will replace sysfs_schedule_callback().  A subtle feature of
      sysfs_schedule_callback() is that it collapses multiple invocations -
      even if multiple removals are triggered, the removal callback is run
      only once.  An equivalent effect can be achieved by testing the return
      value of kernfs_remove_self() - only the one which gets %true return
      value should proceed with actual deletion.  All other instances of
      kernfs_remove_self() will wait till the enclosing kernfs operation
      which invoked the winning instance of kernfs_remove_self() finishes
      and then return %false.  This trivially makes all users of
      kernfs_remove_self() automatically show correct synchronous behavior
      even when there are multiple concurrent operations - all "echo 1 >
      delete" instances will finish only after the whole operation is
      completed by one of the instances.
      
      Note that manipulation of active ref is implemented in separate public
      functions - kernfs_[un]break_active_protection().
      kernfs_remove_self() is the only user at the moment but this will be
      used to cater to more complex cases.
      
      v2: For !CONFIG_SYSFS, dummy version kernfs_remove_self() was missing
          and sysfs_remove_file_self() had incorrect return type.  Fix it.
          Reported by kbuild test bot.
      
      v3: kernfs_[un]break_active_protection() separated out from
          kernfs_remove_self() and exposed as public API.

      kernfs: remove KERNFS_REMOVED · 81c173cb
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      KERNFS_REMOVED is used to mark half-initialized and dying nodes so
      that they don't show up in lookups and deny adding new nodes under or
      renaming it; however, its role overlaps that of deactivation.
      
      It's necessary to deny addition of new children while removal is in
      progress; however, this role considerably intersects with deactivation
      - KERNFS_REMOVED prevents new children while deactivation prevents new
      file operations.  There's no reason to have them separate making
      things more complex than necessary.
      
      This patch removes KERNFS_REMOVED.
      
      * Instead of KERNFS_REMOVED, each node now starts its life
        deactivated.  This means that we now use both atomic_add() and
        atomic_sub() on KN_DEACTIVATED_BIAS, which is INT_MIN.  The compiler
        generates an overflow warnings when negating INT_MIN as the negation
        can't be represented as a positive number.  Nothing is actually
        broken but let's bump BIAS by one to avoid the warnings for archs
        which negates the subtrahend..
      
      * A new helper kernfs_active() which tests whether kn->active >= 0 is
        added for convenience and lockdep annotation.  All KERNFS_REMOVED
        tests are replaced with negated kernfs_active() tests.
      
      * __kernfs_remove() is updated to deactivate, but not drain, all nodes
        in the subtree instead of setting KERNFS_REMOVED.  This removes
        deactivation from kernfs_deactivate(), which is now renamed to
        kernfs_drain().
      
      * Sanity check on KERNFS_REMOVED in kernfs_put() is replaced with
        checks on the active ref.
      
      * Some comment style updates in the affected area.
      
      v2: Reordered before removal path restructuring.  kernfs_active()
          dropped and kernfs_get/put_active() used instead.  RB_EMPTY_NODE()
          used in the lookup paths.

      kernfs: remove KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF and add kernfs_lockdep() · 182fd64b
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      There currently are two mechanisms gating active ref lockdep
      annotations - KERNFS_LOCKDEP flag and KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF type mask.
      The former disables lockdep annotations in kernfs_get/put_active()
      while the latter disables all of kernfs_deactivate().
      
      While KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF also behaves as an optimization to skip the
      deactivation step for non-file nodes, the benefit is marginal and it
      needlessly diverges code paths.  Let's drop KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF.
      
      While at it, add a test helper kernfs_lockdep() to test KERNFS_LOCKDEP
      flag so that it's more convenient and the related code can be compiled
      out when not enabled.

      Tejun Heo 提交于
      kernfs_addrm_cxt and the accompanying kernfs_addrm_start/finish() were
      added because there were operations which should be performed outside
      kernfs_mutex after adding and removing kernfs_nodes.  The necessary
      operations were recorded in kernfs_addrm_cxt and performed by
      kernfs_addrm_finish(); however, after the recent changes which
      relocated deactivation and unmapping so that they're performed
      directly during removal, the only operation kernfs_addrm_finish()
      performs is kernfs_put(), which can be moved inside the removal path
      too.
      
      This patch moves the kernfs_put() of the base ref to __kernfs_remove()
      and remove kernfs_addrm_cxt and kernfs_addrm_start/finish().
      
      * kernfs_add_one() is updated to grab and release kernfs_mutex itself.
        sysfs_addrm_start/finish() invocations around it are removed from

      kernfs: invoke kernfs_unmap_bin_file() directly from kernfs_deactivate() · ccf02aaf
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      kernfs_unmap_bin_file() is supposed to unmap all memory mappings of

      problem as the original implementation of deactivation when there are

      addrm_cxt->removed list is guaranteed to wait for its completion
      before returning.

      kernfs: restructure removal path to fix possible premature return · 35beab06
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      The recursive nature of kernfs_remove() means that, even if
      kernfs_remove() is not allowed to be called multiple times on the same
      node, there may be race conditions between removal of parent and its
      descendants.  While we can claim that kernfs_remove() shouldn't be
      called on one of the descendants while the removal of an ancestor is
      in progress, such rule is unnecessarily restrictive and very difficult
      to enforce.  It's better to simply allow invoking kernfs_remove() as
      the caller sees fit as long as the caller ensures that the node is
      accessible.
      
      The current behavior in such situations is broken.  Whoever enters
      removal path first takes the node off the hierarchy and then
      deactivates.  Following removers either return as soon as it notices
      that it's not the first one or can't even find the target node as it
      has already been removed from the hierarchy.  In both cases, the
      following removers may finish prematurely while the nodes which should
      be removed and drained are still being processed by the first one.
      
      This patch restructures so that multiple removers, whether through
      recursion or direction invocation, always follow the following rules.
      
      * When there are multiple concurrent removers, only one puts the base
        ref.
      
      * Regardless of which one puts the base ref, all removers are blocked
        until the target node is fully deactivated and removed.
      
      To achieve the above, removal path now first marks all descendants
      including self REMOVED and then deactivates and unlinks leftmost
      descendant one-by-one.  kernfs_deactivate() is called directly from
      __kernfs_removal() and drops and regrabs kernfs_mutex for each
      descendant to drain active refs.  As this means that multiple removers
      can enter kernfs_deactivate() for the same node, the function is
      updated so that it can handle multiple deactivators of the same node -
      only one actually deactivates but all wait till drain completion.
      
      The restructured removal path guarantees that a removed node gets
      unlinked only after the node is deactivated and drained.  Combined
      with proper multiple deactivator handling, this guarantees that any
      invocation of kernfs_remove() returns only after the node itself and
      all its descendants are deactivated, drained and removed.
      
      v2: Draining separated into a separate loop (used to be in the same
          loop as unlink) and done from __kernfs_deactivate().  This is to
          allow exposing deactivation as a separate interface later.
      
          Root node removal was broken in v1 patch.  Fixed.
      
      v3: Revert most of v2 except for root node removal fix and
          simplification of KERNFS_REMOVED setting loop.

      kernfs_node->u.completion is used to notify deactivation completion

      scheme is no longer correct - kernfs_remove() invocation may return

      kernfs: associate a new kernfs_node with its parent on creation · db4aad20
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Once created, a kernfs_node is always destroyed by kernfs_put().
      Since ba7443bc ("sysfs, kernfs: implement
      kernfs_create/destroy_root()"), kernfs_put() depends on kernfs_root()
      to locate the ino_ida.  kernfs_root() in turn depends on
      kernfs_node->parent being set for !dir nodes.  This means that
      kernfs_put() of a !dir node requires its ->parent to be initialized.
      
      This leads to oops when a newly created !dir node is destroyed without
      going through kernfs_add_one() or after failing kernfs_add_one()
      before ->parent is set.  kernfs_root() invoked from kernfs_put() will
      try to dereference NULL parent.
      
      Fix it by moving parent association to kernfs_new_node() from
      kernfs_add_one().  kernfs_new_node() now takes @parent instead of
      @root and determines the root from the parent and also sets the new
      node's parent properly.  @parent parameter is removed from
      kernfs_add_one().  As there's no parent when creating the root node,
      __kernfs_new_node() which takes @root as before and doesn't set the
      parent is used in that case.
      
      This ensures that a kernfs_node in any stage in its life has its
      parent associated and thus can be put.

      kernfs, sysfs, driver-core: implement kernfs_remove_self() and its wrappers · 1ae06819
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Sometimes it's necessary to implement a node which wants to delete
      nodes including itself.  This isn't straightforward because of kernfs
      active reference.  While a file operation is in progress, an active
      reference is held and kernfs_remove() waits for all such references to
      drain before completing.  For a self-deleting node, this is a deadlock
      as kernfs_remove() ends up waiting for an active reference that itself
      is sitting on top of.
      
      This currently is worked around in the sysfs layer using
      sysfs_schedule_callback() which makes such removals asynchronous.
      While it works, it's rather cumbersome and inherently breaks
      synchronicity of the operation - the file operation which triggered
      the operation may complete before the removal is finished (or even
      started) and the removal may fail asynchronously.  If a removal
      operation is immmediately followed by another operation which expects
      the specific name to be available (e.g. removal followed by rename
      onto the same name), there's no way to make the latter operation
      reliable.
      
      The thing is there's no inherent reason for this to be asynchrnous.
      All that's necessary to do this synchronous is a dedicated operation
      which drops its own active ref and deactivates self.  This patch
      implements kernfs_remove_self() and its wrappers in sysfs and driver
      core.  kernfs_remove_self() is to be called from one of the file
      operations, drops the active ref and deactivates using
      __kernfs_deactivate_self(), removes the self node, and restores active
      ref to the dead node using __kernfs_reactivate_self() so that the ref
      is balanced afterwards.  __kernfs_remove() is updated so that it takes
      an early exit if the target node is already fully removed so that the
      active ref restored by kernfs_remove_self() after removal doesn't
      confuse the deactivation path.
      
      This makes implementing self-deleting nodes very easy.  The normal
      removal path doesn't even need to be changed to use
      kernfs_remove_self() for the self-deleting node.  The method can
      invoke kernfs_remove_self() on itself before proceeding the normal
      removal path.  kernfs_remove() invoked on the node by the normal
      deletion path will simply be ignored.
      
      This will replace sysfs_schedule_callback().  A subtle feature of
      sysfs_schedule_callback() is that it collapses multiple invocations -
      even if multiple removals are triggered, the removal callback is run
      only once.  An equivalent effect can be achieved by testing the return
      value of kernfs_remove_self() - only the one which gets %true return
      value should proceed with actual deletion.  All other instances of
      kernfs_remove_self() will wait till the enclosing kernfs operation
      which invoked the winning instance of kernfs_remove_self() finishes
      and then return %false.  This trivially makes all users of
      kernfs_remove_self() automatically show correct synchronous behavior
      even when there are multiple concurrent operations - all "echo 1 >
      delete" instances will finish only after the whole operation is
      completed by one of the instances.
      
      v2: For !CONFIG_SYSFS, dummy version kernfs_remove_self() was missing
          and sysfs_remove_file_self() had incorrect return type.  Fix it.

      - deactivate, reactivate and the _self suffixed pair.  A new fields
      kernfs_node->deact_depth is added so that concurrent and nested
      deactivations are handled properly.  kernfs_node->hash is moved so
      that it's paired with the new field so that it doesn't increase the
      size of kernfs_node.
      
      A kernfs user's lock would normally nest inside active ref but during
      removal the user may want to perform kernfs_remove() while holding the
      said lock, which would introduce a reverse locking dependency.  This
      function can be used to break such reverse dependency by allowing
      deactivation step to performed separately outside user's critical
      section.

      Currently, kernfs_get_active() fails if the target node is

      kernfs_addrm_cxt and the accompanying kernfs_addrm_start/finish() were

      kernfs_mutex after adding and removing kernfs_nodes.  The necessary
      operations were recorded in kernfs_addrm_cxt and performed by
      kernfs_addrm_finish(); however, after the recent changes which
      relocated deactivation and unmapping so that they're performed
      directly during removal, the only operation kernfs_addrm_finish()
      performs is kernfs_put(), which can be moved inside the removal path
      too.

      kernfs: invoke kernfs_unmap_bin_file() directly from __kernfs_remove() · f601f9a2
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      kernfs_unmap_bin_file() is supposed to unmap all memory mappings of
      the target file before kernfs_remove() finishes; however, it currently
      is being called from kernfs_addrm_finish() and has the same race
      problem as the original implementation of deactivation when there are
      multiple removers - only the remover which snatches the node to its
      addrm_cxt->removed list is guaranteed to wait for its completion
      before returning.
      
      It can be fixed by moving kernfs_unmap_bin_file() invocation from
      kernfs_addrm_finish() to __kernfs_remove().  The function may be
      called multiple times but that shouldn't do any harm.
      
      We end up dropping kernfs_mutex in the removal loop and the node may
      be removed inbetween by someone else.  kernfs_unlink_sibling() is
      updated to test whether the node has already been removed and return
      accordingly.  __kernfs_remove() in turn performs post-unlinking
      cleanup only if it actually unlinked the node.
      
      KERNFS_HAS_MMAP test is moved out of the unmap function into
      __kernfs_remove() so that we don't unlock kernfs_mutex unnecessarily.
      While at it, drop the now meaningless "bin" qualifier from the
      function name.

      kernfs: restructure removal path to fix possible premature return · 45a140e5
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      The recursive nature of kernfs_remove() means that, even if
      kernfs_remove() is not allowed to be called multiple times on the same
      node, there may be race conditions between removal of parent and its
      descendants.  While we can claim that kernfs_remove() shouldn't be
      called on one of the descendants while the removal of an ancestor is
      in progress, such rule is unnecessarily restrictive and very difficult
      to enforce.  It's better to simply allow invoking kernfs_remove() as
      the caller sees fit as long as the caller ensures that the node is
      accessible.
      
      The current behavior in such situations is broken.  Whoever enters
      removal path first takes the node off the hierarchy and then
      deactivates.  Following removers either return as soon as it notices
      that it's not the first one or can't even find the target node as it
      has already been removed from the hierarchy.  In both cases, the
      following removers may finish prematurely while the nodes which should
      be removed and drained are still being processed by the first one.
      
      This patch restructures so that multiple removers, whether through
      recursion or direction invocation, always follow the following rules.
      
      * When there are multiple concurrent removers, only one puts the base
        ref.
      
      * Regardless of which one puts the base ref, all removers are blocked
        until the target node is fully deactivated and removed.
      
      To achieve the above, removal path now first deactivates the subtree,
      drains it and then unlinks one-by-one.  __kernfs_deactivate() is
      called directly from __kernfs_removal() and drops and regrabs
      kernfs_mutex for each descendant to drain active refs.  As this means
      that multiple removers can enter __kernfs_deactivate() for the same
      node, the function is updated so that it can handle multiple
      deactivators of the same node - only one actually deactivates but all
      wait till drain completion.
      
      The restructured removal path guarantees that a removed node gets
      unlinked only after the node is deactivated and drained.  Combined
      with proper multiple deactivator handling, this guarantees that any
      invocation of kernfs_remove() returns only after the node itself and
      all its descendants are deactivated, drained and removed.
      
      v2: Draining separated into a separate loop (used to be in the same
          loop as unlink) and done from __kernfs_deactivate().  This is to
          allow exposing deactivation as a separate interface later.
      
          Root node removal was broken in v1 patch.  Fixed.

      kernfs: remove KERNFS_REMOVED · ae34372e
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      KERNFS_REMOVED is used to mark half-initialized and dying nodes so
      that they don't show up in lookups and deny adding new nodes under or
      renaming it; however, its role overlaps those of deactivation and
      removal from rbtree.
      
      It's necessary to deny addition of new children while removal is in
      progress; however, this role considerably intersects with deactivation
      - KERNFS_REMOVED prevents new children while deactivation prevents new
      file operations.  There's no reason to have them separate making
      things more complex than necessary.
      
      KERNFS_REMOVED is also used to decide whether a node is still visible
      to vfs layer, which is rather redundant as equivalent determination
      can be made by testing whether the node is on its parent's children
      rbtree or not.
      
      This patch removes KERNFS_REMOVED.
      
      * Instead of KERNFS_REMOVED, each node now starts its life
        deactivated.  This means that we now use both atomic_add() and
        atomic_sub() on KN_DEACTIVATED_BIAS, which is INT_MIN.  The compiler
        generates an overflow warnings when negating INT_MIN as the negation
        can't be represented as a positive number.  Nothing is actually
        broken but let's bump BIAS by one to avoid the warnings for archs
        which negates the subtrahend..
      
      * KERNFS_REMOVED tests in add and rename paths are replaced with
        kernfs_get/put_active() of the target nodes.  Due to the way the add
        path is structured now, active ref handling is done in the callers
        of kernfs_add_one().  This will be consolidated up later.
      
      * kernfs_remove_one() is updated to deactivate instead of setting
        KERNFS_REMOVED.  This removes deactivation from kernfs_deactivate(),
        which is now renamed to kernfs_drain().
      
      * kernfs_dop_revalidate() now tests RB_EMPTY_NODE(&kn->rb) instead of
        KERNFS_REMOVED and KERNFS_REMOVED test in kernfs_dir_pos() is
        dropped.  A node which is removed from the children rbtree is not
        included in the iteration in the first place.  This means that a
        node may be visible through vfs a bit longer - it's now also visible
        after deactivation until the actual removal.  This slightly enlarged
        window difference doesn't make any difference to the userland.
      
      * Sanity check on KERNFS_REMOVED in kernfs_put() is replaced with
        checks on the active ref.
      
      * Some comment style updates in the affected area.

      kernfs: allow negative dentries · 19bbb926
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      kernfs doesn't allow negative dentries - kernfs_iop_lookup() returns

      creation and kernfs's d_delete() callback, kernfs_dop_delete(),

      kernfs_dop_delete() is removed and kernfs_dop_revalidate() is updated
      to check whether the target dentry is negative and request fresh
      lookup if so.

      kernfs: update kernfs_rename_ns() to consider KERNFS_STATIC_NAME · 47a52e91
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      kernfs_rename_ns() currently assumes that the target sysfs_dirent has
      a copied name.  This has been okay because sysfs supports rename only
      for directories which always have copied names; however, there's
      nothing in kernfs interface which calls for such restriction and
      currently invoking kernfs_rename_ns() on a regular file leads to oops
      because it ends up trying to kfree() a static name.
      
      This patch updates kernfs_rename_ns() so that it skips kfree() of the
      old name if it's static.  This allows it to be used for all node
      types.

      kernfs: mark static names with KERNFS_STATIC_NAME · 2063d608
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Because sysfs used struct attribute which are supposed to stay
      constant, sysfs didn't copy names when creating regular files.  The
      specified string for name was supposed to stay constant.  Such
      distinction isn't inherent for kernfs.  kernfs_create_file[_ns]()
      should be able to take the same @name as kernfs_create_dir[_ns]()
      
      As there can be huge number of sysfs attributes, we still want to be
      able to use static names for sysfs attributes.  This patch renames
      kernfs_create_file_ns_key() to __kernfs_create_file() and adds
      @name_is_static parameter so that the caller can explicitly indicate
      that @name can be used without copying.  kernfs is updated to use
      KERNFS_STATIC_NAME to distinguish static and copied names.
      
      This patch doesn't introduce any behavior changes.

      kernfs: add REMOVED check to create and rename paths · d0ae3d43
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      kernfs currently assumes that the caller doesn't try to create a new
      node under a removed parent, rename a removed node, or move a node
      under a removed node.  While this works fine for sysfs, it'd be nice
      to have protection against such cases especially given that kernfs is
      planned to add support for mkdir, rmdir and rename requsts from
      userland which may make race conditions more likely.
      
      This patch updates create and rename paths to check REMOVED and fail
      the operation with -ENOENT if performed on or towards removed nodes.
      Note that remove path already has such check.
