Attributes declared with __ATTR_PREALLOC use sysfs_kf_read() which returns
zero bytes for non-zero offset. This breaks script checkarray in mdadm tool
in debian where /bin/sh is 'dash' because its builtin 'read' reads only one
byte at a time. Script gets 'i' instead of 'idle' when reads current action
from /sys/block/$dev/md/sync_action and as a result does nothing.

This patch adds trivial implementation of partial read: generate whole
string and move required part into buffer head.

attributes declared with __ATTR_PREALLOC use sysfs_kf_read()
which ignores the 'count' arg.
So a 1-byte read request can return more bytes than that.

This is seen with the 'dash' shell when 'read' is used on
some 'md' sysfs attributes.

So only return the 'min' of count and the attribute length.

If count == 0 bytes are requested by a reader, sysfs_kf_bin_read()
deliberately returns 0 without passing a potentially harmful value to
some externally defined underlying battr->read() function.

However in case of (pos == size && count) the next clause always sets
count to 0 and this value is handed over to battr->read().

The change intends to make obsolete (and remove later) a redundant
sanity check in battr->read(), if it is present, or add more
protection to struct bin_attribute users, who does not care about
input arguments.

When a new kernfs node is created, KERNFS_STATIC_NAME is used to avoid
making a separate copy of its name.  It's currently only used for sysfs
attributes whose filenames are required to stay accessible and unchanged.
There are rare exceptions where these names are allocated and formatted
dynamically but for the vast majority of cases they're consts in the
rodata section.

Now that kernfs is converted to use kstrdup_const() and kfree_const(),
there's little point in keeping KERNFS_STATIC_NAME around.  Remove it.

To match the previous patch which used the pre-alloc buffer for
writes, this patch causes reads to use the same buffer.
This is not strictly necessary as the current seq_read() will allocate
on first read, so user-space can trigger the required pre-alloc.  But
consistency is valuable.

The read function is somewhat simpler than seq_read() and, for example,
does not support reading from an offset into the file: reads must be
at the start of the file.

As seq_read() does not use the prealloc buffer, ->seq_show is
incompatible with ->prealloc and caused an EINVAL return from open().
sysfs code which calls into kernfs always chooses the correct function.

As the buffer is shared with writes and other reads, the mutex is
extended to cover the copy_to_user.

md/raid allows metadata management to be performed in user-space.
A various times, particularly on device failure, the metadata needs
to be updated before further writes can be permitted.
This means that the user-space program which updates metadata much
not block on writeout, and so must not allocate memory.

mlockall(MCL_CURRENT|MCL_FUTURE) and pre-allocation can avoid all
memory allocation issues for user-memory, but that does not help
kernel memory.
Several kernel objects can be pre-allocated.  e.g. files opened before
any writes to the array are permitted.
However some kernel allocation happens in places that cannot be
pre-allocated.
In particular, writes to sysfs files (to tell md that it can now
allow writes to the array) allocate a buffer using GFP_KERNEL.

This patch allows attributes to be marked as "PREALLOC".  In that case
the maximal buffer is allocated when the file is opened, and then used
on each write instead of allocating a new buffer.

As the same buffer is now shared for all writes on the same file
description, the mutex is extended to cover full use of the buffer
including the copy_from_user().

The new __ATTR_PREALLOC() 'or's a new flag in to the 'mode', which is
inspected by sysfs_add_file_mode_ns() to determine if the file should be
marked as requiring prealloc.

Despite the comment, we *do* use ->seq_show together with ->prealloc
in this patch.  The next patch fixes that.

13c589d5 ("sysfs: use seq_file when reading regular files")
switched sysfs from custom read implementation to seq_file to enable
later transition to kernfs.  After the change, the buffer passed to
->show() is acquired through seq_get_buf(); unfortunately, this
introduces a subtle behavior change.  Before the commit, the buffer
passed to ->show() was always zero as it was allocated using
get_zeroed_page().  Because seq_file doesn't clear buffers on
allocation and neither does seq_get_buf(), after the commit, depending
on the behavior of ->show(), we may end up exposing uninitialized data
to userland thus possibly altering userland visible behavior and
leaking information.

Fix it by explicitly clearing the buffer.

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.

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 is v3.14 fix for the same issue that a8b14744 ("sysfs: give
different locking key to regular and bin files") addresses for v3.13.
Due to the extensive kernfs reorganization in v3.14 branch, the same
fix couldn't be ported as-is.  The v3.13 fix was ignored while merging
it into v3.14 branch.

027a485d ("sysfs: use a separate locking class for open files
depending on mmap") assigned different lockdep key to
sysfs_open_file->mutex depending on whether the file implements mmap
or not in an attempt to avoid spurious lockdep warning caused by
merging of regular and bin file paths.

While this restored some of the original behavior of using different
locks (at least lockdep is concerned) for the different clases of
files.  The restoration wasn't full because now the lockdep key
assignment depends on whether the file has mmap or not instead of
whether it's a regular file or not.

This means that bin files which don't implement mmap will get assigned
the same lockdep class as regular files.  This is problematic because
file_operations for bin files still implements the mmap file operation
and checking whether the sysfs file actually implements mmap happens
in the file operation after grabbing @sysfs_open_file->mutex.  We
still end up adding locking dependency from mmap locking to
sysfs_open_file->mutex to the regular file mutex which triggers
spurious circular locking warning.

For v3.13, a8b14744 ("sysfs: give different locking key to regular
and bin files") fixed it by giving sysfs_open_file->mutex different
lockdep keys depending on whether the file is regular or bin instead
of whether mmap exists or not; however, due to the way sysfs is now
layered behind kernfs, this approach is no longer viable.  kernfs can
tell whether a sysfs node has mmap implemented or not but can't tell
whether a bin file from a regular one.

This patch updates kernfs such that kernfs_file_mmap() checks
SYSFS_FLAG_HAS_MMAP and bail before grabbing sysfs_open_file->mutex so
that it doesn't add spurious locking dependency from mmap to
sysfs_open_file->mutex and changes sysfs so that it specifies
kernfs_ops->mmap iff the sysfs file implements mmap.  Combined, this
ensures that sysfs_open_file->mutex is grabbed under mmap path iff the
sysfs file actually implements mmap.  As sysfs_open_file->mutex is
already given a different lockdep key if mmap is implemented, this
removes the spurious locking dependency.

Currently, sysfs_dirent active_ref lockdep annotation uses

sysfs_notify_dirent() is renamed to kernfs_notify() and sysfs_notify()
is updated so that it doesn't directly grab sysfs_mutex but acquires
the target sysfs_dirents using sysfs_get_dirent().
sysfs_notify_dirent() is reimplemented as a dumb inline wrapper around
kernfs_notify().

This patch doesn't introduce any behavior changes.

kernfs_ops currently only supports single_open() behavior which is
pretty restrictive.  Add optional callbacks ->seq_{start|next|stop}()
which, when implemented, are invoked for seq_file traversal.  This
allows full seq_file functionality for kernfs users.  This currently
doesn't have any user and doesn't change any behavior.

v2: Refreshed on top of the updated "sysfs, kernfs: prepare read path
    for kernfs".

sysfs_add_one() is a wrapper around __sysfs_add_one() which prints out
duplicate name warning if __sysfs_add_one() fails with -EEXIST.  The
previous kernfs conversions moved all dup warnings to sysfs interface
functions and sysfs_add_one() doesn't have any user left.

Remove sysfs_add_one() and update __sysfs_add_one() to take its name.

This patch doesn't make any functional changes.

Introduce kernfs interface to create a file which takes and returns
sysfs_dirents.

The actual file creation part is separated out from
sysfs_add_file_mode_ns() into kernfs_create_file_ns().  The former now
only decides the kernfs_ops to use and the file's size and invokes the
latter.

This patch doesn't introduce behavior changes.

After kernfs_ops and sysfs_dirent->s_attr.size addition, the
distinction between SYSFS_KOBJ_BIN_ATTR and SYSFS_KOBJ_ATTR is only
necessary while creating files to decide which kernfs_ops to use.
Afterwards, they behave exactly the same.

This patch removes SYSFS_KOBJ_BIN_ATTR along with sysfs_is_bin().
sysfs_add_file[_mode_ns]() are updated to take bool @is_bin instead of
@type.

This patch doesn't introduce any behavior changes.  This completely
isolates the distinction between the two sysfs file types in the sysfs
layer proper.

sysfs sets the size of regular files unconditionally at PAGE_SIZE and
takes the size of bin files from bin_attribute.  The latter is a
pretty bad interface which forces bin_attribute users to create a
separate copy of bin_attribute for each instance of the file -
e.g. pci resource files.

Add sysfs_dirent->s_attr.size so that the size can be specified
separately.  This unifies inode init paths of ATTR and BIN_ATTR
identical and allows for generic size handling for kernfs.

Unfortunately, this grows the size of sysfs_dirent by sizeof(loff_t).

We're in the process of separating out core sysfs functionality into
kernfs which will deal with sysfs_dirents directly.  This patch
introduces kernfs_ops which hosts methods kernfs users implement and
updates fs/sysfs/file.c such that sysfs_kf_*() functions populate
kernfs_ops and kernfs_file_*() functions call the matching entries
from kernfs_ops.

kernfs_ops contains the following groups of methods.

* seq_show() - for kernfs files which use seq_file for reads.

* read() - for direct read implementations.  Used iff seq_show() is
  not implemented.

* write() - for writes.

* mmap() - for mmaps.

Notes:

* sysfs_elem_attr->ops is added so that kernfs_ops can be accessed
  from sysfs_dirent.  kernfs_ops() helper is added to verify locking
  and access the field.

* SYSFS_FLAG_HAS_(SEQ_SHOW|MMAP) added.  sd->s_attr->ops is accessible
  only while holding active_ref and there are cases where we want to
  take different actions depending on which ops are implemented.
  These two flags cache whether the two ops are implemented for those.

* kernfs_file_*() no longer test sysfs type but chooses different
  behaviors depending on which methods in kernfs_ops are implemented.
  The conversions are trivial except for the open path.  As
  kernfs_file_open() now decides whether to allow read/write accesses
  depending on the kernfs_ops implemented, the presence of methods in
  kobjs and attribute_bin should be propagated to kernfs_ops.
  sysfs_add_file_mode_ns() is updated so that it propagates presence /
  absence of the callbacks through _empty, _ro, _wo, _rw kernfs_ops.

We're in the process of separating out core sysfs functionality into
kernfs which will deal with sysfs_dirents directly.  This patch
prepares the rest - open, release and poll.  There isn't much to do.
Just renaming is enough.  As sysfs_file_operations and
sysfs_bin_operations are identical now, use the same file_operations
for both - kernfs_file_operations.

We're in the process of separating out core sysfs functionality into
kernfs which will deal with sysfs_dirents directly.  This patch
rearranges mmap path so that the kernfs and sysfs parts are separate.

sysfs_kf_bin_mmap() which handles the interaction with bin_attribute
mmap method is factored out of sysfs_bin_mmap(), which is renamed to
kernfs_file_mmap().  All vma ops are renamed accordingly.

sysfs_bin_mmap() is updated such that it can be used for both file
types.  This will eventually allow using the same file_operations for
both file types, which is necessary to separate out kernfs.

kernfs_file_write() handles all boilerplate work including buffer

We're in the process of separating out core sysfs functionality into
kernfs which will deal with sysfs_dirents directly.  This patch
rearranges read path so that the kernfs and sysfs parts are separate.

* Regular file read path is refactored such that
  kernfs_seq_start/next/stop/show() handle all the boilerplate work
  including locking and updating event count for poll, while
  sysfs_kf_seq_show() deals with interaction with kobj show method.

* Bin file read path is refactored such that kernfs_file_direct_read()
  handles all the boilerplate work including buffer management and
  locking, while sysfs_kf_bin_read() deals with interaction with
  bin_attribute read method.

kernfs_file_read() is added.  It invokes either the seq_file or direct
read path depending on the file type.  This will eventually allow
using the same file_operations for both file types, which is necessary
to separate out kernfs.

While this patch changes the order of some operations, it shouldn't
change any visible behavior.

v2: Dropped unnecessary zeroing of @count from sysfs_kf_seq_show().
    Add comments explaining single_open() behavior.  Both suggested by
    Pavel.

v3: seq_stop() is called even after seq_start() failed.
    kernfs_seq_start() updated so that it doesn't unlock
    sysfs_open_file->mutex on failure so that kernfs_seq_stop()
    doesn't try to unlock an already unlocked mutex.  Reported by
    Fengguang.

A directory sysfs_dirent points to the associated kobj.  A regular or
bin file points to the associated [bin_]attribute.  This patch
replaces sysfs_dirent->s_dir.kobj and ->s_attr.[bin_]attr with void *
->priv.

This is to prepare for kernfs interface so that sysfs can specify the
private data in the same way for directories and files.  This lower
debuggability but not by much - the whole thing was overlaid in a
union anyway.  If debuggability becomes an issue, we can later add
->priv accessors which explicitly check for the sysfs_dirent type and
performs casting.

This patch doesn't introduce any behavior difference.
