      eCryptfs: Add reference counting to lower files · 332ab16f
      Tyler Hicks 提交于
      For any given lower inode, eCryptfs keeps only one lower file open and
      multiplexes all eCryptfs file operations through that lower file. The
      lower file was considered "persistent" and stayed open from the first
      lookup through the lifetime of the inode.
      
      This patch keeps the notion of a single, per-inode lower file, but adds
      reference counting around the lower file so that it is closed when not
      currently in use. If the reference count is at 0 when an operation (such
      as open, create, etc.) needs to use the lower file, a new lower file is
      opened. Since the file is no longer persistent, all references to the
      term persistent file are changed to lower file.
      
      Locking is added around the sections of code that opens the lower file
      and assign the pointer in the inode info, as well as the code the fputs
      the lower file when all eCryptfs users are done with it.
      
      This patch is needed to fix issues, when mounted on top of the NFSv3
      client, where the lower file is left silly renamed until the eCryptfs
      inode is destroyed.

      eCryptfs: dput dentries returned from dget_parent · dd55c898
      Tyler Hicks 提交于
      Call dput on the dentries previously returned by dget_parent() in
      ecryptfs_rename(). This is needed for supported eCryptfs mounts on top
      of the NFSv3 client.

      eCryptfs: Remove extra d_delete in ecryptfs_rmdir · 35ffa948
      Tyler Hicks 提交于
      vfs_rmdir() already calls d_delete() on the lower dentry. That was being
      duplicated in ecryptfs_rmdir() and caused a NULL pointer dereference
      when NFSv3 was the lower filesystem.

      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Require filesystems be aware of .d_revalidate being called in rcu-walk
      mode (nd->flags & LOOKUP_RCU). For now do a simple push down, returning
      -ECHILD from all implementations.

      fs: dcache reduce branches in lookup path · fb045adb
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Reduce some branches and memory accesses in dcache lookup by adding dentry
      flags to indicate common d_ops are set, rather than having to check them.
      This saves a pointer memory access (dentry->d_op) in common path lookup
      situations, and saves another pointer load and branch in cases where we
      have d_op but not the particular operation.
      
      Patched with:
      
      git grep -E '[.>]([[:space:]])*d_op([[:space:]])*=' | xargs sed -e 's/\([^\t ]*\)->d_op = \(.*\);/d_set_d_op(\1, \2);/' -e 's/\([^\t ]*\)\.d_op = \(.*\);/d_set_d_op(\&\1, \2);/' -i

      fs: icache RCU free inodes · fa0d7e3d
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      RCU free the struct inode. This will allow:
      
      - Subsequent store-free path walking patch. The inode must be consulted for
        permissions when walking, so an RCU inode reference is a must.
      - sb_inode_list_lock to be moved inside i_lock because sb list walkers who want
        to take i_lock no longer need to take sb_inode_list_lock to walk the list in
        the first place. This will simplify and optimize locking.
      - Could remove some nested trylock loops in dcache code
      - Could potentially simplify things a bit in VM land. Do not need to take the
        page lock to follow page->mapping.
      
      The downsides of this is the performance cost of using RCU. In a simple
      creat/unlink microbenchmark, performance drops by about 10% due to inability to
      reuse cache-hot slab objects. As iterations increase and RCU freeing starts
      kicking over, this increases to about 20%.
      
      In cases where inode lifetimes are longer (ie. many inodes may be allocated
      during the average life span of a single inode), a lot of this cache reuse is
      not applicable, so the regression caused by this patch is smaller.
      
      The cache-hot regression could largely be avoided by using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU,
      however this adds some complexity to list walking and store-free path walking,
      so I prefer to implement this at a later date, if it is shown to be a win in
      real situations. I haven't found a regression in any non-micro benchmark so I
      doubt it will be a problem.

      fs: dcache scale dentry refcount · b7ab39f6
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Make d_count non-atomic and protect it with d_lock. This allows us to ensure a
      0 refcount dentry remains 0 without dcache_lock. It is also fairly natural when
      we start protecting many other dentry members with d_lock.

      Change d_hash so it may be called from lock-free RCU lookups. See similar
      patch for d_compare for details.
      
      For in-tree filesystems, this is just a mechanical change.
