      Saner locking around deactivate_super() · 1712ac8f
      Al Viro 提交于
      Make sure that s_umount is acquired *before* we drop the final
      active reference; we still have the fast path (atomic_dec_unless)
      and we have gotten rid of the window between the moment when
      s_active hits zero and s_umount is acquired.  Which simplifies
      the living hell out of grab_super() and inotify pin_to_kill()
      stuff.

      inotify will WARN() if it finds that the idr and the fsnotify internals

      inotify: do not reuse watch descriptors · 9e572cc9
      Eric Paris 提交于
      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.

      inotify: start watch descriptor count at 1 · 08e53fcb
      Eric Paris 提交于
      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)

      notify: unused event private race · eef3a116
      Eric Paris 提交于
      inotify decides if private data it passed to get added to an event was
      used by checking list_empty().  But it's possible that the event may
      have been dequeued and the private event removed so it would look empty.
      
      The fix is to use the return code from fsnotify_add_notify_event rather
      than looking at the list.

      one global IN_IGNORED event and allocate them one at a time.  This solves
      current issues with multiple IN_IGNORED on a queue having tail drop
      problems and simplifies the allocations since we don't have to worry about
      two tasks opperating on the IGNORED event concurrently.

      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: do not leak inode marks in inotify_add_watch · 75fe2b26
      Eric Paris 提交于
      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: inotify_destroy_mark_entry could get called twice · 528da3e9
      Eric Paris 提交于
      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.
      
      Hopefully this fixes:
