The whole "superblock write-out" VFS infrastructure is served by the

writes out all dirty superblock using the '->write_super()' call-back.  But the
problem with this thread is that it wastes power by waking up the system every
5 seconds, even if there are no diry superblocks, or there are no client
file-systems which would need this (e.g., btrfs does not use
'->write_super()'). So we want to kill it completely and thus, we need to make
file-systems to stop using the '->write_super()' VFS service, and then remove
it together with the kernel thread.

J. Bruce Fields [Wed, 9 May 2012 21:18:05 +0000 (17:18 -0400)]
vfs: stop d_splice_alias creating directory aliases

A directory should never have more than one dentry pointing to it.

But d_splice_alias() will add one if it finds a directory with an
already-existing non-DISCONNECTED dentry.

I can't find an obvious reproducer, but I also can't see what prevents
d_splice_alias() from encountering such a case.

It therefore seems safest to allow d_splice_alias to use any dentry it
finds.

(Prior to the removal of dentry_unhash() from vfs_rmdir(), around v3.0,
this could cause an nfsd deadlock like this:

- Somebody attempts to remove a non-empty directory.
- The dentry_unhash() in vfs_rmdir() unhashes the dentry
  pointing to the non-empty directory.
- ->rmdir() then fails with -ENOTEMPTY
- Before the vfs_rmdir() caller reaches dput(), an nfsd process
  in rename looks up the directory by filehandle; at the end of
  that lookup, this dentry is found by d_alloc_anon(), and a
  reference is taken on it, preventing dput() from removing it.
- A regular lookup of the directory calls d_splice_alias(),
  finds only an unhashed (not a DISCONNECTED) dentry, and
  insteads adds a new one, so the directory now has two
  dentries.
- The nfsd process in rename, which was previously looking up
  the source directory of the rename, now looks up the target
  directory (which is the same), and gets the dentry newly
  created by the previous lookup.
- The rename, seeing two different dentries, assumes this is a
  cross-directory rename and attempts to take the i_mutex on the
  directory twice.

That reproducer no longer exists, but I don't think there was anything
fundamentally incorrect about the vfs_rmdir() behavior there, so I think
the real fault was here in d_splice_alias().)

12 years agofsnotify: handle subfiles' perm events

fsnotify: handle subfiles' perm events

Recently I'm working on fanotify and found the following strange
behaviors.

I wrote a program to set fanotify_mark on "/tmp/block" and FAN_DENY
all events notified.

fanotify_mask = FAN_ALL_EVENTS | FAN_ALL_PERM_EVENTS | FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD:
$ cd /tmp/block; cat foo
cat: foo: Operation not permitted

Operation on the file is blocked as expected.

But,

fanotify_mask = FAN_ALL_PERM_EVENTS | FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD:
$ cd /tmp/block; cat foo
aaa

It's not blocked anymore.  This is confusing behavior.  Also reading
commit "fsnotify: call fsnotify_parent in perm events", it seems like
fsnotify should handle subfiles' perm events as well as the other notify
events.

With this patch, regardless of FAN_ALL_EVENTS set or not:
$ cd /tmp/block; cat foo
cat: foo: Operation not permitted

Operation on the file is now blocked properly.

FS_OPEN_PERM and FS_ACCESS_PERM are not listed on FS_EVENTS_POSS_ON_CHILD.
 Due to fsnotify_inode_watches_children() check, if you only specify only
these events as fsnotify_mask, you don't get subfiles' perm events
notified.

This patch add the events to FS_EVENTS_POSS_ON_CHILD to get them notified
even if only these events are specified to fsnotify_mask.

vfs: increment iversion when a file is truncated

When a file is truncated with truncate()/ftruncate() and then closed,
iversion is not updated.  This patch uses ATTR_SIZE flag as an indication
to increment iversion.

Mimi said:

On fput(), i_version is used to detect and flag files that have changed
and need to be re-measured in the IMA measurement policy.  When a file
is truncated with truncate()/ftruncate() and then closed, i_version is
not updated.  As a result, although the file has changed, it will not be
re-measured and added to the IMA measurement list on subsequent access.

jffs2: get rid of jffs2_sync_super

Currently JFFS2 file-system maps the VFS "superblock" abstraction to the
write-buffer. Namely, it uses VFS services to synchronize the write-buffer
periodically.

The whole "superblock write-out" VFS infrastructure is served by the
'sync_supers()' kernel thread, which wakes up every 5 (by default) seconds and
writes out all dirty superblock using the '->write_super()' call-back. But the
problem with this thread is that it wastes power by waking up the system every
5 seconds no matter what. So we want to kill it completely and thus, we need to
make file-systems to stop using the '->write_super' VFS service, and then
remove it together with the kernel thread.

This patch switches the JFFS2 write-buffer management from
'->write_super()'/'->s_dirt' to a delayed work. Instead of setting the 's_dirt'
flag we just schedule a delayed work for synchronizing the write-buffer.
