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 manipulate a directory which takes and returns sysfs_dirents. create_dir() is renamed to kernfs_create_dir_ns() and its argumantes and return value are updated. create_dir() usages are replaced with kernfs_create_dir_ns() and sysfs_create_subdir() usages are replaced with kernfs_create_dir(). Dup warnings are handled explicitly by sysfs users of the kernfs interface. sysfs_enable_ns() is renamed to kernfs_enable_ns(). This patch doesn't introduce any behavior changes. v2: Dummy implementation for !CONFIG_SYSFS updated to return -ENOSYS. v3: kernfs_enable_ns() added. v4: Refreshed on top of "sysfs: drop kobj_ns_type handling, take #2" so that this patch removes sysfs_enable_ns().

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.

The way namespace tags are implemented in sysfs is more complicated than necessary. As each tag is a pointer value and required to be non-NULL under a namespace enabled parent, there's no need to record separately what type each tag is. If multiple namespace types are needed, which currently aren't, we can simply compare the tag to a set of allowed tags in the superblock assuming that the tags, being pointers, won't have the same value across multiple types. This patch rips out kobj_ns_type handling from sysfs. sysfs now has an enable switch to turn on namespace under a node. If enabled, all children are required to have non-NULL namespace tags and filtered against the super_block's tag. kobject namespace determination is now performed in lib/kobject.c::create_dir() making sysfs_read_ns_type() unnecessary. The sanity checks are also moved. create_dir() is restructured to ease such addition. This removes most kobject namespace knowledge from sysfs proper which will enable proper separation and layering of sysfs. This is the second try. The first one was cb26a311 ("sysfs: drop kobj_ns_type handling") which tried to automatically enable namespace if there are children with non-NULL namespace tags; however, it was broken for symlinks as they should inherit the target's tag iff namespace is enabled in the parent. This led to namespace filtering enabled incorrectly for wireless net class devices through phy80211 symlinks and thus network configuration failure. a1212d27 ("Revert "sysfs: drop kobj_ns_type handling"") reverted the commit. This shouldn't introduce any behavior changes, for real. v2: Dummy implementation of sysfs_enable_ns() for !CONFIG_SYSFS was missing and caused build failure. Reported by kbuild test robot.

sysfs_assoc_lock is an odd piece of locking. In general, whoever owns a kobject is responsible for synchronizing sysfs operations and sysfs proper assumes that, for example, removal won't race with any other operation; however, this doesn't work for symlinking because an entity performing symlink doesn't usually own the target kobject and thus has no control over its removal. sysfs_assoc_lock synchronizes symlink operations against kobj->sd disassociation so that symlink code doesn't end up dereferencing already freed sysfs_dirent by racing with removal of the target kobject. This is quite obscure and the generic name of the lock and lack of comments make it difficult to understand its role. Let's rename it to sysfs_symlink_target_lock and add comments explaining what's going on.

375b611e ("sysfs: remove sysfs_buffer->ops") introduced sysfs_file_ops() which determines the associated file operation of a given sysfs_dirent. As file ops access should be protected by an active reference, the new function includes a lockdep assertion on the sysfs_dirent; unfortunately, I forgot to take attr->ignore_lockdep flag into account and the lockdep assertion trips spuriously for files which opt out from active reference lockdep checking. # cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.2/usb1/authorized ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 540 at /work/os/work/fs/sysfs/file.c:79 sysfs_file_ops+0x4e/0x60() Modules linked in: CPU: 1 PID: 540 Comm: cat Not tainted 3.11.0-work+ #3 Hardware name: Bochs Bochs, BIOS Bochs 01/01/2011 0000000000000009 ffff880016205c08 ffffffff81ca0131 0000000000000000 ffff880016205c40 ffffffff81096d0d ffff8800166cb898 ffff8800166f6f60 ffffffff8125a220 ffff880011ab1ec0 ffff88000aff0c78 ffff880016205c50 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81ca0131>] dump_stack+0x4e/0x82 [<ffffffff81096d0d>] warn_slowpath_common+0x7d/0xa0 [<ffffffff81096dea>] warn_slowpath_null+0x1a/0x20 [<ffffffff8125994e>] sysfs_file_ops+0x4e/0x60 [<ffffffff8125a274>] sysfs_open_file+0x54/0x300 [<ffffffff811df612>] do_dentry_open.isra.17+0x182/0x280 [<ffffffff811df820>] finish_open+0x30/0x40 [<ffffffff811f0623>] do_last+0x503/0xd90 [<ffffffff811f0f6b>] path_openat+0xbb/0x6d0 [<ffffffff811f23ba>] do_filp_open+0x3a/0x90 [<ffffffff811e09a9>] do_sys_open+0x129/0x220 [<ffffffff811e0abe>] SyS_open+0x1e/0x20 [<ffffffff81caf3c2>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b ---[ end trace aa48096b111dafdb ]--- Rename fs/sysfs/dir.c::ignore_lockdep() to sysfs_ignore_lockdep() and move it to fs/sysfs/sysfs.h and make sysfs_file_ops() skip lockdep assertion if sysfs_ignore_lockdep() is true.

With the previous changes, sysfs regular file code is ready to handle bin files too. This patch makes bin files share the regular file path. * sysfs_create/remove_bin_file() are moved to fs/sysfs/file.c. * sysfs_init_inode() is updated to use the new sysfs_bin_operations instead of bin_fops for bin files. * fs/sysfs/bin.c and the related pieces are removed. This patch shouldn't introduce any behavior difference to bin file accesses. Overall, this unification reduces the amount of duplicate logic, makes behaviors more consistent and paves the road for building simpler and more versatile interface which will allow other subsystems to make use of sysfs for their pseudo filesystems. v2: Stale fs/sysfs/bin.c reference dropped from Documentation/DocBook/filesystems.tmpl.

Currently, sysfs directory removal is inconsistent in that it would remove any files directly under it but wouldn't recurse into directories. Thanks to group subdirectories, this doesn't even match with kobject boundaries. sysfs is in the process of being separated out so that it can be used by multiple subsystems and we want to have a consistent behavior - either removal of a sysfs_dirent should remove every descendant entries or none instead of something inbetween. This patch implements proper recursive removal in __sysfs_remove_dir(). The function now walks its subtree in a post-order walk to remove all descendants. This is a behavior change but kobject / driver layer, which currently is the only consumer, has already been updated to handle duplicate removal attempts, so nothing should be broken after this change.

sysfs currently has a rather weird behavior regarding removals. A directory removal would delete all files directly under it but wouldn't recurse into subdirectories, which, while a bit inconsistent, seems to make sense at the first glance as each directory is supposedly associated with a kobject and each kobject can take care of the directory deletion; however, this doesn't really hold as we have groups which can be directories without a kobject associated with it and require explicit deletions. We're in the process of separating out sysfs from kboject / driver core and want a consistent behavior. A removal should delete either only the specified node or everything under it. I think it is helpful to support recursive atomic removal and later patches will implement it. Such change means that a sysfs_dirent associated with kobject may be deleted before the kobject itself is removed if one of its ancestor gets removed before it. As sysfs_remove_dir() puts the base ref, we may end up with dangling pointer on descendants. This can be solved by holding an extra reference on the sd from kobject. Acquire an extra reference on the associated sysfs_dirent on directory creation and put it after removal.

sysfs_addrm_start/finish() enclose sysfs_dirent additions and deletions and sysfs_addrm_cxt is used to record information necessary to finish the operations. Currently, sysfs_addrm_start() takes @parent_sd, records it in sysfs_addrm_cxt, and assumes that all operations in the block are performed under that @parent_sd. This assumption has been fine until now but we want to make some operations behave recursively and, while having @parent_sd recorded in sysfs_addrm_cxt doesn't necessarily prevents that, it becomes confusing. This patch removes sysfs_addrm_cxt->parent_sd and makes sysfs_add_one() take an explicit @parent_sd parameter. Note that sysfs_remove_one() doesn't need the extra argument as its parent is always known from the target @sd. While at it, add __acquires/releases() notations to sysfs_addrm_start/finish() respectively. This patch doesn't make any functional difference.

The pre-existing sysfs interfaces which take explicit namespace argument are weird in that they place the optional @ns in front of @name which is contrary to the established convention. For example, we end up forcing vast majority of sysfs_get_dirent() users to do sysfs_get_dirent(parent, NULL, name), which is silly and error-prone especially as @ns and @name may be interchanged without causing compilation warning. This renames sysfs_get_dirent() to sysfs_get_dirent_ns() and swap the positions of @name and @ns, and sysfs_get_dirent() is now a wrapper around sysfs_get_dirent_ns(). This makes confusions a lot less likely. There are other interfaces which take @ns before @name. They'll be updated by following patches.

If multiple namespace types are needed, which currently aren't, we can simply compare the tag to a set of allowed tags in the superblock assuming that the tags, being pointers, won't have the same value across multiple types. Also, whether to filter by namespace tag or not can be trivially determined by whether the node has any tagged children or not. This patch rips out kobj_ns_type handling from sysfs. sysfs no longer cares whether specific type of namespace is enabled or not. If a sysfs_dirent has a non-NULL tag, the parent is marked as needing namespace filtering and the value is tested against the allowed set of tags for the superblock (currently only one but increasing this number isn't difficult) and the sysfs_dirent is ignored if it doesn't match. This removes most kobject namespace knowledge from sysfs proper which will enable proper separation and layering of sysfs. The namespace sanity checks in fs/sysfs/dir.c are replaced by the new sanity check in kobject_namespace(). As this is the only place ktype->namespace() is called for sysfs, this doesn't weaken the sanity check significantly. I omitted converting the sanity check in sysfs_do_create_link_sd(). While the check can be shifted to upper layer, mistakes there are well contained and should be easily visible anyway. Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Eric W.

For some unrecognizable reason, namespace information is communicated to sysfs through ktype->namespace() callback when there's *nothing* which needs the use of a callback. The whole sequence of operations is completely synchronous and sysfs operations simply end up calling back into the layer which just invoked it in order to find out the namespace information, which is completely backwards, obfuscates what's going on and unnecessarily tangles two separate layers. This patch doesn't remove ktype->namespace() but shifts its handling to kobject layer. We probably want to get rid of the callback in the long term. This patch adds an explicit param to sysfs_{create|rename|move}_dir() and renames them to sysfs_{create|rename|move}_dir_ns(), respectively. ktype->namespace() invocations are moved to the calling sites of the above functions. A new helper kboject_namespace() is introduced which directly tests kobj_ns_type_operations->type which should give the same result as testing sysfs_fs_type(parent_sd) and returns @kobj's namespace tag as necessary. kobject_namespace() is extern as it will be used from another file in the following patches.

Given sysfs_get_dirent/sysfs_put are exported APIs, even inside sysfs they are called in many contexts(kobject/attribe add/delete, inode init/drop, dentry lookup/release, readdir, ...), it is healthful to check the removed flag before freeing one entry and dump message if it is freeing without being removed first.

When we change the namespace tag of a sysfs entry, the associated dentry is still kept around. readdir() will work correctly and not display the old entries, but open() will still succeed, so will reads and writes. This will no longer happen if sysfs is remounted, hinting that this is a cache-related problem. I am using the following sequence to demonstrate that: shell1: ip link add type veth unshare -nm shell2: ip link set veth1 <pid_of_shell_1> cat /sys/devices/virtual/net/veth1/ifindex Before that patch, this will succeed (fail to fail). After it, it will correctly return an error. Differently from a normal rename, which we handle fine, changing the object namespace will keep it's path intact. So this check seems necessary as well.

a) ->d_iput() is wrong here - what we do to inode is completely usual, it's dentry->d_fsdata that we want to drop. Just use ->d_release(). b) switch to ->s_d_op - no need to play with d_set_d_op() Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
