License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

fscrypt: add FS_IOC_ADD_ENCRYPTION_KEY ioctl Add a new fscrypt ioctl, FS_IOC_ADD_ENCRYPTION_KEY. This ioctl adds an encryption key to the filesystem's fscrypt keyring ->s_master_keys, making any files encrypted with that key appear "unlocked". Why we need this ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The main problem is that the "locked/unlocked" (ciphertext/plaintext) status of encrypted files is global, but the fscrypt keys are not. fscrypt only looks for keys in the keyring(s) the process accessing the filesystem is subscribed to: the thread keyring, process keyring, and session keyring, where the session keyring may contain the user keyring. Therefore, userspace has to put fscrypt keys in the keyrings for individual users or sessions. But this means that when a process with a different keyring tries to access encrypted files, whether they appear "unlocked" or not is nondeterministic. This is because it depends on whether the files are currently present in the inode cache. Fixing this by consistently providing each process its own view of the filesystem depending on whether it has the key or not isn't feasible due to how the VFS caches work. Furthermore, while sometimes users expect this behavior, it is misguided for two reasons. First, it would be an OS-level access control mechanism largely redundant with existing access control mechanisms such as UNIX file permissions, ACLs, LSMs, etc. Encryption is actually for protecting the data at rest. Second, almost all users of fscrypt actually do need the keys to be global. The largest users of fscrypt, Android and Chromium OS, achieve this by having PID 1 create a "session keyring" that is inherited by every process. This works, but it isn't scalable because it prevents session keyrings from being used for any other purpose. On general-purpose Linux distros, the 'fscrypt' userspace tool [1] can't similarly abuse the session keyring, so to make 'sudo' work on all systems it has to link all the user keyrings into root's user keyring [2]. This is ugly and raises security concerns. Moreover it can't make the keys available to system services, such as sshd trying to access the user's '~/.ssh' directory (see [3], [4]) or NetworkManager trying to read certificates from the user's home directory (see [5]); or to Docker containers (see [6], [7]). By having an API to add a key to the *filesystem* we'll be able to fix the above bugs, remove userspace workarounds, and clearly express the intended semantics: the locked/unlocked status of an encrypted directory is global, and encryption is orthogonal to OS-level access control. Why not use the add_key() syscall ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We use an ioctl for this API rather than the existing add_key() system call because the ioctl gives us the flexibility needed to implement fscrypt-specific semantics that will be introduced in later patches: - Supporting key removal with the semantics such that the secret is removed immediately and any unused inodes using the key are evicted; also, the eviction of any in-use inodes can be retried. - Calculating a key-dependent cryptographic identifier and returning it to userspace. - Allowing keys to be added and removed by non-root users, but only keys for v2 encryption policies; and to prevent denial-of-service attacks, users can only remove keys they themselves have added, and a key is only really removed after all users who added it have removed it. Trying to shoehorn these semantics into the keyrings syscalls would be very difficult, whereas the ioctls make things much easier. However, to reuse code the implementation still uses the keyrings service internally. Thus we get lockless RCU-mode key lookups without having to re-implement it, and the keys automatically show up in /proc/keys for debugging purposes.

fs: Improve filesystem freezing handling vfs_check_frozen() tests are racy since the filesystem can be frozen just after the test is performed. Thus in write paths we can end up marking some pages or inodes dirty even though the file system is already frozen. This creates problems with flusher thread hanging on frozen filesystem. Another problem is that exclusion between ->page_mkwrite() and filesystem freezing has been handled by setting page dirty and then verifying s_frozen. This guaranteed that either the freezing code sees the faulted page, writes it, and writeprotects it again or we see s_frozen set and bail out of page fault. This works to protect from page being marked writeable while filesystem freezing is running but has an unpleasant artefact of leaving dirty (although unmodified and writeprotected) pages on frozen filesystem resulting in similar problems with flusher thread as the first problem. This patch aims at providing exclusion between write paths and filesystem freezing. We implement a writer-freeze read-write semaphore in the superblock. Actually, there are three such semaphores because of lock ranking reasons - one for page fault handlers (->page_mkwrite), one for all other writers, and one of internal filesystem purposes (used e.g. to track running transactions). Write paths which should block freezing (e.g. directory operations, ->aio_write(), ->page_mkwrite) hold reader side of the semaphore. Code freezing the filesystem takes the writer side. Only that we don't really want to bounce cachelines of the semaphores between CPUs for each write happening. So we implement the reader side of the semaphore as a per-cpu counter and the writer side is implemented using s_writers.frozen superblock field.

fs: Add user namespace member to struct super_block Start marking filesystems with a user namespace owner, s_user_ns. In this change this is only used for permission checks of who may mount a filesystem. Ultimately s_user_ns will be used for translating ids and checking capabilities for filesystems mounted from user namespaces. The default policy for setting s_user_ns is implemented in sget(), which arranges for s_user_ns to be set to current_user_ns() and to ensure that the mounter of the filesystem has CAP_SYS_ADMIN in that user_ns. The guts of sget are split out into another function sget_userns(). The function sget_userns calls alloc_super with the specified user namespace or it verifies the existing superblock that was found has the expected user namespace, and fails with EBUSY when it is not. This failing prevents users with the wrong privileges mounting a filesystem. The reason for the split of sget_userns from sget is that in some cases such as mount_ns and kernfs_mount_ns a different policy for permission checking of mounts and setting s_user_ns is necessary, and the existence of sget_userns() allows those policies to be implemented. The helper mount_ns is expected to be used for filesystems such as proc and mqueuefs which present per namespace information. The function mount_ns is modified to call sget_userns instead of sget to ensure the user namespace owner of the namespace whose information is presented by the filesystem is used on the superblock. For sysfs and cgroup the appropriate permission checks are already in place, and kernfs_mount_ns is modified to call sget_userns so that the init_user_ns is the only user namespace used. For the cgroup filesystem cgroup namespace mounts are bind mounts of a subset of the full cgroup filesystem and as such s_user_ns must be the same for all of them as there is only a single superblock. Mounts of sysfs that vary based on the network namespace could in principle change s_user_ns but it keeps the analysis and implementation of kernfs simpler if that is not supported, and at present there appear to be no benefits from supporting a different s_user_ns on any sysfs mount. Getting the details of setting s_user_ns correct has been a long process. Thanks to Pavel Tikhorirorv who spotted a leak in sget_userns. Thanks to Seth Forshee who has kept the work alive.

super: add filesystem freezing helpers for suspend and hibernate Allow the power subsystem to support filesystem freeze for suspend and hibernate. For some kernel subsystems it is paramount that they are guaranteed that they are the owner of the freeze to avoid any risk of deadlocks. This is the case for the power subsystem. Enable it to recognize whether it did actually freeze the filesystem. If userspace has 10 filesystems and suspend/hibernate manges to freeze 5 and then fails on the 6th for whatever odd reason (current or future) then power needs to undo the freeze of the first 5 filesystems. It can't just walk the list again because while it's unlikely that a new filesystem got added in the meantime it still cannot tell which filesystems the power subsystem actually managed to get a freeze reference count on that needs to be dropped during thaw. There's various ways out of this ugliness. For example, record the filesystems the power subsystem managed to freeze on a temporary list in the callbacks and then walk that list backwards during thaw to undo the freezing or make sure that the power subsystem just actually exclusively freezes things it can freeze and marking such filesystems as being owned by power for the duration of the suspend or resume cycle. I opted for the latter as that seemed the clean thing to do even if it means more code changes. If hibernation races with filesystem freezing (e.g. DM reconfiguration), then hibernation need not freeze a filesystem because it's already frozen but userspace may thaw the filesystem before hibernation actually happens. If the race happens the other way around, DM reconfiguration may unexpectedly fail with EBUSY. So allow FREEZE_EXCL to nest with other holders. An exclusive freezer cannot be undone by any of the other concurrent freezers.

super: wait for nascent superblocks Recent patches experiment with making it possible to allocate a new superblock before opening the relevant block device. Naturally this has intricate side-effects that we get to learn about while developing this. Superblock allocators such as sget{_fc}() return with s_umount of the new superblock held and lock ordering currently requires that block level locks such as bdev_lock and open_mutex rank above s_umount. Before aca740cecbe5 ("fs: open block device after superblock creation") ordering was guaranteed to be correct as block devices were opened prior to superblock allocation and thus s_umount wasn't held. But now s_umount must be dropped before opening block devices to avoid locking violations. This has consequences. The main one being that iterators over @super_blocks and @fs_supers that grab a temporary reference to the superblock can now also grab s_umount before the caller has managed to open block devices and called fill_super(). So whereas before such iterators or concurrent mounts would have simply slept on s_umount until SB_BORN was set or the superblock was discard due to initalization failure they can now needlessly spin through sget{_fc}(). If the caller is sleeping on bdev_lock or open_mutex one caller waiting on SB_BORN will always spin somewhere and potentially this can go on for quite a while. It should be possible to drop s_umount while allowing iterators to wait on a nascent superblock to either be born or discarded. This patch implements a wait_var_event() mechanism allowing iterators to sleep until they are woken when the superblock is born or discarded. This also allows us to avoid relooping through @fs_supers and @super_blocks if a superblock isn't yet born or dying.

super: wait for nascent superblocks Recent patches experiment with making it possible to allocate a new superblock before opening the relevant block device. Naturally this has intricate side-effects that we get to learn about while developing this. Superblock allocators such as sget{_fc}() return with s_umount of the new superblock held and lock ordering currently requires that block level locks such as bdev_lock and open_mutex rank above s_umount. Before aca740cecbe5 ("fs: open block device after superblock creation") ordering was guaranteed to be correct as block devices were opened prior to superblock allocation and thus s_umount wasn't held. But now s_umount must be dropped before opening block devices to avoid locking violations. This has consequences. The main one being that iterators over @super_blocks and @fs_supers that grab a temporary reference to the superblock can now also grab s_umount before the caller has managed to open block devices and called fill_super(). So whereas before such iterators or concurrent mounts would have simply slept on s_umount until SB_BORN was set or the superblock was discard due to initalization failure they can now needlessly spin through sget{_fc}(). If the caller is sleeping on bdev_lock or open_mutex one caller waiting on SB_BORN will always spin somewhere and potentially this can go on for quite a while. It should be possible to drop s_umount while allowing iterators to wait on a nascent superblock to either be born or discarded. This patch implements a wait_var_event() mechanism allowing iterators to sleep until they are woken when the superblock is born or discarded. This also allows us to avoid relooping through @fs_supers and @super_blocks if a superblock isn't yet born or dying.

list_lru: introduce list_lru_shrink_{count,walk} Kmem accounting of memcg is unusable now, because it lacks slab shrinker support. That means when we hit the limit we will get ENOMEM w/o any chance to recover. What we should do then is to call shrink_slab, which would reclaim old inode/dentry caches from this cgroup. This is what this patch set is intended to do. Basically, it does two things. First, it introduces the notion of per-memcg slab shrinker. A shrinker that wants to reclaim objects per cgroup should mark itself as SHRINKER_MEMCG_AWARE. Then it will be passed the memory cgroup to scan from in shrink_control->memcg. For such shrinkers shrink_slab iterates over the whole cgroup subtree under the target cgroup and calls the shrinker for each kmem-active memory cgroup. Secondly, this patch set makes the list_lru structure per-memcg. It's done transparently to list_lru users - everything they have to do is to tell list_lru_init that they want memcg-aware list_lru. Then the list_lru will automatically distribute objects among per-memcg lists basing on which cgroup the object is accounted to. This way to make FS shrinkers (icache, dcache) memcg-aware we only need to make them use memcg-aware list_lru, and this is what this patch set does. As before, this patch set only enables per-memcg kmem reclaim when the pressure goes from memory.limit, not from memory.kmem.limit. Handling memory.kmem.limit is going to be tricky due to GFP_NOFS allocations, and it is still unclear whether we will have this knob in the unified hierarchy. This patch (of 9): NUMA aware slab shrinkers use the list_lru structure to distribute objects coming from different NUMA nodes to different lists. Whenever such a shrinker needs to count or scan objects from a particular node, it issues commands like this: count = list_lru_count_node(lru, sc->nid); freed = list_lru_walk_node(lru, sc->nid, isolate_func, isolate_arg, &sc->nr_to_scan); where sc is an instance of the shrink_control structure passed to it from vmscan. To simplify this, let's add special list_lru functions to be used by shrinkers, list_lru_shrink_count() and list_lru_shrink_walk(), which consolidate the nid and nr_to_scan arguments in the shrink_control structure. This will also allow us to avoid patching shrinkers that use list_lru when we make shrink_slab() per-memcg - all we will have to do is extend the shrink_control structure to include the target memcg and make list_lru_shrink_{count,walk} handle this appropriately.

list_lru: introduce list_lru_shrink_{count,walk} Kmem accounting of memcg is unusable now, because it lacks slab shrinker support. That means when we hit the limit we will get ENOMEM w/o any chance to recover. What we should do then is to call shrink_slab, which would reclaim old inode/dentry caches from this cgroup. This is what this patch set is intended to do. Basically, it does two things. First, it introduces the notion of per-memcg slab shrinker. A shrinker that wants to reclaim objects per cgroup should mark itself as SHRINKER_MEMCG_AWARE. Then it will be passed the memory cgroup to scan from in shrink_control->memcg. For such shrinkers shrink_slab iterates over the whole cgroup subtree under the target cgroup and calls the shrinker for each kmem-active memory cgroup. Secondly, this patch set makes the list_lru structure per-memcg. It's done transparently to list_lru users - everything they have to do is to tell list_lru_init that they want memcg-aware list_lru. Then the list_lru will automatically distribute objects among per-memcg lists basing on which cgroup the object is accounted to. This way to make FS shrinkers (icache, dcache) memcg-aware we only need to make them use memcg-aware list_lru, and this is what this patch set does. As before, this patch set only enables per-memcg kmem reclaim when the pressure goes from memory.limit, not from memory.kmem.limit. Handling memory.kmem.limit is going to be tricky due to GFP_NOFS allocations, and it is still unclear whether we will have this knob in the unified hierarchy. This patch (of 9): NUMA aware slab shrinkers use the list_lru structure to distribute objects coming from different NUMA nodes to different lists. Whenever such a shrinker needs to count or scan objects from a particular node, it issues commands like this: count = list_lru_count_node(lru, sc->nid); freed = list_lru_walk_node(lru, sc->nid, isolate_func, isolate_arg, &sc->nr_to_scan); where sc is an instance of the shrink_control structure passed to it from vmscan. To simplify this, let's add special list_lru functions to be used by shrinkers, list_lru_shrink_count() and list_lru_shrink_walk(), which consolidate the nid and nr_to_scan arguments in the shrink_control structure. This will also allow us to avoid patching shrinkers that use list_lru when we make shrink_slab() per-memcg - all we will have to do is extend the shrink_control structure to include the target memcg and make list_lru_shrink_{count,walk} handle this appropriately.

shrinker: convert superblock shrinkers to new API Convert superblock shrinker to use the new count/scan API, and propagate the API changes through to the filesystem callouts. The filesystem callouts already use a count/scan API, so it's just changing counters to longs to match the VM API. This requires the dentry and inode shrinker callouts to be converted to the count/scan API. This is mainly a mechanical change.

mm: add SHRINK_EMPTY shrinker methods return value We need to distinguish the situations when shrinker has very small amount of objects (see vfs_pressure_ratio() called from super_cache_count()), and when it has no objects at all. Currently, in the both of these cases, shrinker::count_objects() returns 0. The patch introduces new SHRINK_EMPTY return value, which will be used for "no objects at all" case. It's is a refactoring mostly, as SHRINK_EMPTY is replaced by 0 by all callers of do_shrink_slab() in this patch, and all the magic will happen in further.

super: fix calculation of shrinkable objects for small numbers The sysctl knob sysctl_vfs_cache_pressure is used to determine which percentage of the shrinkable objects in our cache we should actively try to shrink. It works great in situations in which we have many objects (at least more than 100), because the aproximation errors will be negligible. But if this is not the case, specially when total_objects < 100, we may end up concluding that we have no objects at all (total / 100 = 0, if total < 100). This is certainly not the biggest killer in the world, but may matter in very low kernel memory situations.

change sb_writers to use percpu_rw_semaphore We can remove everything from struct sb_writers except frozen and add the array of percpu_rw_semaphore's instead. This patch doesn't remove sb_writers->wait_unfrozen yet, we keep it for get_super_thawed(). We will probably remove it later. This change tries to address the following problems: - Firstly, __sb_start_write() looks simply buggy. It does __sb_end_write() if it sees ->frozen, but if it migrates to another CPU before percpu_counter_dec(), sb_wait_write() can wrongly succeed if there is another task which holds the same "semaphore": sb_wait_write() can miss the result of the previous percpu_counter_inc() but see the result of this percpu_counter_dec(). - As Dave Hansen reports, it is suboptimal. The trivial microbenchmark that writes to a tmpfs file in a loop runs 12% faster if we change this code to rely on RCU and kill the memory barriers. - This code doesn't look simple. It would be better to rely on the generic locking code. According to Dave, this change adds the same performance improvement. Note: with this change both freeze_super() and thaw_super() will do synchronize_sched_expedited() 3 times. This is just ugly. But: - This will be "fixed" by the rcu_sync changes we are going to merge. After that freeze_super()->percpu_down_write() will use synchronize_sched(), and thaw_super() won't use synchronize() at all. This doesn't need any changes in fs/super.c. - Once we merge rcu_sync changes, we can also change super.c so that all wb_write->rw_sem's will share the single ->rss in struct sb_writes, then freeze_super() will need only one synchronize_sched().

fs: Improve filesystem freezing handling vfs_check_frozen() tests are racy since the filesystem can be frozen just after the test is performed. Thus in write paths we can end up marking some pages or inodes dirty even though the file system is already frozen. This creates problems with flusher thread hanging on frozen filesystem. Another problem is that exclusion between ->page_mkwrite() and filesystem freezing has been handled by setting page dirty and then verifying s_frozen. This guaranteed that either the freezing code sees the faulted page, writes it, and writeprotects it again or we see s_frozen set and bail out of page fault. This works to protect from page being marked writeable while filesystem freezing is running but has an unpleasant artefact of leaving dirty (although unmodified and writeprotected) pages on frozen filesystem resulting in similar problems with flusher thread as the first problem. This patch aims at providing exclusion between write paths and filesystem freezing. We implement a writer-freeze read-write semaphore in the superblock. Actually, there are three such semaphores because of lock ranking reasons - one for page fault handlers (->page_mkwrite), one for all other writers, and one of internal filesystem purposes (used e.g. to track running transactions). Write paths which should block freezing (e.g. directory operations, ->aio_write(), ->page_mkwrite) hold reader side of the semaphore. Code freezing the filesystem takes the writer side. Only that we don't really want to bounce cachelines of the semaphores between CPUs for each write happening. So we implement the reader side of the semaphore as a per-cpu counter and the writer side is implemented using s_writers.frozen superblock field.

The helper mount_ns is expected to be used for filesystems such as proc and mqueuefs which present per namespace information. The function mount_ns is modified to call sget_userns instead of sget to ensure the user namespace owner of the namespace whose information is presented by the filesystem is used on the superblock. For sysfs and cgroup the appropriate permission checks are already in place, and kernfs_mount_ns is modified to call sget_userns so that the init_user_ns is the only user namespace used. For the cgroup filesystem cgroup namespace mounts are bind mounts of a subset of the full cgroup filesystem and as such s_user_ns must be the same for all of them as there is only a single superblock. Mounts of sysfs that vary based on the network namespace could in principle change s_user_ns but it keeps the analysis and implementation of kernfs simpler if that is not supported, and at present there appear to be no benefits from supporting a different s_user_ns on any sysfs mount.

VFS: don't keep disconnected dentries on d_anon The original purpose of the per-superblock d_anon list was to keep disconnected dentries in the cache between consecutive requests to the NFS server. Dentries can be disconnected if a client holds a file open and repeatedly performs IO on it, and if the server drops the dentry, whether due to memory pressure, server restart, or "echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches". This purpose was thwarted by commit 75a6f82a0d10 ("freeing unlinked file indefinitely delayed") which caused disconnected dentries to be freed as soon as their refcount reached zero. This means that, when a dentry being used by nfsd gets disconnected, a new one needs to be allocated for every request (unless requests overlap). As the dentry has no name, no parent, and no children, there is little of value to cache. As small memory allocations are typically fast (from per-cpu free lists) this likely has little cost. This means that the original purpose of s_anon is no longer relevant: there is no longer any need to keep disconnected dentries on a list so they appear to be hashed. However, s_anon now has a new use. When you mount an NFS filesystem, the dentry stored in s_root is just a placebo. The "real" root dentry is allocated using d_obtain_root() and so it kept on the s_anon list. I don't know the reason for this, but suspect it related to NFSv4 where a mount of "server:/some/path" require NFS to look up the root filehandle on the server, then walk down "/some" and "/path" to get the filehandle to mount. Whatever the reason, NFS depends on the s_anon list and on shrink_dcache_for_umount() pruning all dentries on this list. So we cannot simply remove s_anon. We could just leave the code unchanged, but apart from that being potentially confusing, the (unfair) bit-spin-lock which protects s_anon can become a bottle neck when lots of disconnected dentries are being created. So this patch renames s_anon to s_roots, and stops storing disconnected dentries on the list. Only dentries obtained with d_obtain_root() are now stored on this list. There are many fewer of these (only NFS and NILFS2 use the call, and only during filesystem mount) so contention on the bit-lock will not be a problem. Possibly an alternate solution should be found for NFS and NILFS2, but that would require understanding their needs first.

fs/fs-writeback.c: add a new writeback list for sync wait_sb_inodes() currently does a walk of all inodes in the filesystem to find dirty one to wait on during sync. This is highly inefficient and wastes a lot of CPU when there are lots of clean cached inodes that we don't need to wait on. To avoid this "all inode" walk, we need to track inodes that are currently under writeback that we need to wait for. We do this by adding inodes to a writeback list on the sb when the mapping is first tagged as having pages under writeback. wait_sb_inodes() can then walk this list of "inodes under IO" and wait specifically just for the inodes that the current sync(2) needs to wait for. Define a couple helpers to add/remove an inode from the writeback list and call them when the overall mapping is tagged for or cleared from writeback. Update wait_sb_inodes() to walk only the inodes under writeback due to the sync. With this change, filesystem sync times are significantly reduced for fs' with largely populated inode caches and otherwise no other work to do. For example, on a 16xcpu 2GHz x86-64 server, 10TB XFS filesystem with a ~10m entry inode cache, sync times are reduced from ~7.3s to less than 0.1s when the filesystem is fully clean.

list_lru: dynamically adjust node arrays We currently use a compile-time constant to size the node array for the list_lru structure. Due to this, we don't need to allocate any memory at initialization time. But as a consequence, the structures that contain embedded list_lru lists can become way too big (the superblock for instance contains two of them). This patch aims at ameliorating this situation by dynamically allocating the node arrays with the firmware provided nr_node_ids.

preparations to taking MNT_WRITE_HOLD out of ->mnt_flags We have an unpleasant wart in accessibility rules for struct mount. There are per-superblock lists of mounts, used by sb_prepare_remount_readonly() to check if any of those is currently claimed for write access and to block further attempts to get write access on those until we are done. As soon as it is attached to a filesystem, mount becomes reachable via that list. Only sb_prepare_remount_readonly() traverses it and it only accesses a few members of struct mount. Unfortunately, ->mnt_flags is one of those and it is modified - MNT_WRITE_HOLD set and then cleared. It is done under mount_lock, so from the locking rules POV everything's fine. However, it has easily overlooked implications - once mount has been attached to a filesystem, it has to be treated as globally visible. In particular, initializing ->mnt_flags *must* be done either prior to that point or under mount_lock. All other members are still private at that point. Life gets simpler if we move that bit (and that's *all* that can get touched by access via this list) out of ->mnt_flags. It's not even hard to do - currently the list is implemented as list_head one, anchored in super_block->s_mounts and linked via mount->mnt_instance. As the first step, switch it to hlist-like open-coded structure - address of the first mount in the set is stored in ->s_mounts and ->mnt_instance replaced with ->mnt_next_for_sb and ->mnt_pprev_for_sb - the former either NULL or pointing to the next mount in set, the latter - address of either ->s_mounts or ->mnt_next_for_sb in the previous element of the set. In the next commit we'll steal the LSB of ->mnt_pprev_for_sb as replacement for MNT_WRITE_HOLD. Reviewed-by: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

super: ensure valid info For keyed filesystems that recycle superblocks based on s_fs_info or information contained therein s_fs_info must be kept as long as the superblock is on the filesystem type super list. This isn't guaranteed as s_fs_info will be freed latest in sb->kill_sb(). The fix is simply to perform notification and list removal in kill_anon_super(). Any filesystem needs to free s_fs_info after they call the kill_*() helpers. If they don't they risk use-after-free right now so fixing it here is guaranteed that s_fs_info remain valid. For block backed filesystems notifying in pass sb->kill_sb() in deactivate_locked_super() remains unproblematic and is required because multiple other block devices can be shut down after kill_block_super() has been called from a filesystem's sb->kill_sb() handler. For example, ext4 and xfs close additional devices. Block based filesystems don't depend on s_fs_info (btrfs does use s_fs_info but also uses kill_anon_super() and not kill_block_super().). Sorry for that braino. Goal should be to unify this behavior during this cycle obviously. But let's please do a simple bugfix now.

fs/superblock: unregister sb shrinker before ->kill_sb() This series is aimed at regressions noticed during reclaim activity. The first two patches are shrinker patches that were posted ages ago but never merged for reasons that are unclear to me.

This will allow cached objects to be counted without call to grab_super_passive() to update ref count on sb. We want to avoid locking during memory reclamation especially when we are skipping the memory reclaim when we are out of cached objects. This is safe because grab_super_passive does a try-lock on the sb->s_umount now, and so if we are in the unmount process, it won't ever block. That means what used to be a deadlock and races we were avoiding by using grab_super_passive() is now: shrinker umount down_read(shrinker_rwsem) down_write(sb->s_umount) shrinker_unregister down_write(shrinker_rwsem) <blocks> grab_super_passive(sb) down_read_trylock(sb->s_umount) <fails> <shrinker aborts> .... <shrinkers finish running> up_read(shrinker_rwsem) <unblocks> <removes shrinker> up_write(shrinker_rwsem) ->kill_sb() .... So it is safe to deregister the shrinker before ->kill_sb().

super: ensure valid info For keyed filesystems that recycle superblocks based on s_fs_info or information contained therein s_fs_info must be kept as long as the superblock is on the filesystem type super list. This isn't guaranteed as s_fs_info will be freed latest in sb->kill_sb(). The fix is simply to perform notification and list removal in kill_anon_super(). Any filesystem needs to free s_fs_info after they call the kill_*() helpers. If they don't they risk use-after-free right now so fixing it here is guaranteed that s_fs_info remain valid. For block backed filesystems notifying in pass sb->kill_sb() in deactivate_locked_super() remains unproblematic and is required because multiple other block devices can be shut down after kill_block_super() has been called from a filesystem's sb->kill_sb() handler. For example, ext4 and xfs close additional devices. Block based filesystems don't depend on s_fs_info (btrfs does use s_fs_info but also uses kill_anon_super() and not kill_block_super().). Sorry for that braino. Goal should be to unify this behavior during this cycle obviously. But let's please do a simple bugfix now.

super: wait for nascent superblocks Recent patches experiment with making it possible to allocate a new superblock before opening the relevant block device. Naturally this has intricate side-effects that we get to learn about while developing this. Superblock allocators such as sget{_fc}() return with s_umount of the new superblock held and lock ordering currently requires that block level locks such as bdev_lock and open_mutex rank above s_umount. Before aca740cecbe5 ("fs: open block device after superblock creation") ordering was guaranteed to be correct as block devices were opened prior to superblock allocation and thus s_umount wasn't held. But now s_umount must be dropped before opening block devices to avoid locking violations. This has consequences. The main one being that iterators over @super_blocks and @fs_supers that grab a temporary reference to the superblock can now also grab s_umount before the caller has managed to open block devices and called fill_super(). So whereas before such iterators or concurrent mounts would have simply slept on s_umount until SB_BORN was set or the superblock was discard due to initalization failure they can now needlessly spin through sget{_fc}(). If the caller is sleeping on bdev_lock or open_mutex one caller waiting on SB_BORN will always spin somewhere and potentially this can go on for quite a while. It should be possible to drop s_umount while allowing iterators to wait on a nascent superblock to either be born or discarded. This patch implements a wait_var_event() mechanism allowing iterators to sleep until they are woken when the superblock is born or discarded. This also allows us to avoid relooping through @fs_supers and @super_blocks if a superblock isn't yet born or dying.

[PATCH] VFS: Destroy the dentries contributed by a superblock on unmounting The attached patch destroys all the dentries attached to a superblock in one go by: (1) Destroying the tree rooted at s_root. (2) Destroying every entry in the anon list, one at a time. (3) Each entry in the anon list has its subtree consumed from the leaves inwards. This reduces the amount of work generic_shutdown_super() does, and avoids iterating through the dentry_unused list. Note that locking is almost entirely absent in the shrink_dcache_for_umount*() functions added by this patch. This is because: (1) at the point the filesystem calls generic_shutdown_super(), it is not permitted to further touch the superblock's set of dentries, and nor may it remove aliases from inodes; (2) the dcache memory shrinker now skips dentries that are being unmounted; and (3) the superblock no longer has any external references through which the VFS can reach it. Given these points, the only locking we need to do is when we remove dentries from the unused list and the name hashes, which we do a directory's worth at a time. We also don't need to guard against reference counts going to zero unexpectedly and removing bits of the tree we're working on as nothing else can call dput(). A cut down version of dentry_iput() has been folded into shrink_dcache_for_umount_subtree() function. Apart from not needing to unlock things, it also doesn't need to check for inotify watches. In this version of the patch, the complaint about a dentry still being in use has been expanded from a single BUG_ON() and now gives much more information.

fs: add FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL Summary ======= This introduces FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL which will allows userspace to implement something like mount -t ext4 --exclusive /dev/sda /B which fails if a superblock for the requested filesystem does already exist: Before this patch ----------------- $ sudo ./move-mount -f xfs -o source=/dev/sda4 /A Requesting filesystem type xfs Mount options requested: source=/dev/sda4 Attaching mount at /A Moving single attached mount Setting key(source) with val(/dev/sda4) $ sudo ./move-mount -f xfs -o source=/dev/sda4 /B Requesting filesystem type xfs Mount options requested: source=/dev/sda4 Attaching mount at /B Moving single attached mount Setting key(source) with val(/dev/sda4) After this patch with --exclusive as a switch for FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL -------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ sudo ./move-mount -f xfs --exclusive -o source=/dev/sda4 /A Requesting filesystem type xfs Request exclusive superblock creation Mount options requested: source=/dev/sda4 Attaching mount at /A Moving single attached mount Setting key(source) with val(/dev/sda4) $ sudo ./move-mount -f xfs --exclusive -o source=/dev/sda4 /B Requesting filesystem type xfs Request exclusive superblock creation Mount options requested: source=/dev/sda4 Attaching mount at /B Moving single attached mount Setting key(source) with val(/dev/sda4) Device or resource busy | move-mount.c: 300: do_fsconfig: i xfs: reusing existing filesystem not allowed Details ======= As mentioned on the list (cf. [1]-[3]) mount requests like mount -t ext4 /dev/sda /A are ambigous for userspace. Either a new superblock has been created and mounted or an existing superblock has been reused and a bind-mount has been created. This becomes clear in the following example where two processes create the same mount for the same block device: P1 P2 fd_fs = fsopen("ext4"); fd_fs = fsopen("ext4"); fsconfig(fd_fs, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "source", "/dev/sda"); fsconfig(fd_fs, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "source", "/dev/sda"); fsconfig(fd_fs, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "dax", "always"); fsconfig(fd_fs, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "resuid", "1000"); // wins and creates superblock fsconfig(fd_fs, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE, ...) // finds compatible superblock of P1 // spins until P1 sets SB_BORN and grabs a reference fsconfig(fd_fs, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE, ...) fd_mnt1 = fsmount(fd_fs); fd_mnt2 = fsmount(fd_fs); move_mount(fd_mnt1, "/A") move_mount(fd_mnt2, "/B") Not just does P2 get a bind-mount but the mount options that P2 requestes are silently ignored. The VFS itself doesn't, can't and shouldn't enforce filesystem specific mount option compatibility. It only enforces incompatibility for read-only <-> read-write transitions: mount -t ext4 /dev/sda /A mount -t ext4 -o ro /dev/sda /B The read-only request will fail with EBUSY as the VFS can't just silently transition a superblock from read-write to read-only or vica versa without risking security issues. To userspace this silent superblock reuse can become a security issue in because there is currently no straightforward way for userspace to know that they did indeed manage to create a new superblock and didn't just reuse an existing one. This adds a new FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL command to fsconfig() that returns EBUSY if an existing superblock would be reused. Userspace that needs to be sure that it did create a new superblock with the requested mount options can request superblock creation using this command. If the command succeeds they can be sure that they did create a new superblock with the requested mount options. This requires the new mount api. With the old mount api it would be necessary to plumb this through every legacy filesystem's file_system_type->mount() method. If they want this feature they are most welcome to switch to the new mount api. Following is an analysis of the effect of FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL on each high-level superblock creation helper: (1) get_tree_nodev() Always allocate new superblock. Hence, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE and FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL are equivalent. The binderfs or overlayfs filesystems are examples. (4) get_tree_keyed() Finds an existing superblock based on sb->s_fs_info. Hence, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE would reuse an existing superblock whereas FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL would reject it with EBUSY. The mqueue or nfsd filesystems are examples. (2) get_tree_bdev() This effectively works like get_tree_keyed(). The ext4 or xfs filesystems are examples. (3) get_tree_single() Only one superblock of this filesystem type can ever exist. Hence, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE would reuse an existing superblock whereas FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL would reject it with EBUSY. The securityfs or configfs filesystems are examples. Note that some single-instance filesystems never destroy the superblock once it has been created during the first mount. For example, if securityfs has been mounted at least onces then the created superblock will never be destroyed again as long as there is still an LSM making use it. Consequently, even if securityfs is unmounted and the superblock seemingly destroyed it really isn't which means that FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL will continue rejecting reusing an existing superblock.

[1]-[3]) mount requests like mount -t ext4 /dev/sda /A are ambigous for userspace. Either a new superblock has been created and mounted or an existing superblock has been reused and a bind-mount has been created. This becomes clear in the following example where two processes create the same mount for the same block device: P1 P2 fd_fs = fsopen("ext4"); fd_fs = fsopen("ext4"); fsconfig(fd_fs, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "source", "/dev/sda"); fsconfig(fd_fs, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "source", "/dev/sda"); fsconfig(fd_fs, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "dax", "always"); fsconfig(fd_fs, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "resuid", "1000"); // wins and creates superblock fsconfig(fd_fs, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE, ...) // finds compatible superblock of P1 // spins until P1 sets SB_BORN and grabs a reference fsconfig(fd_fs, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE, ...) fd_mnt1 = fsmount(fd_fs); fd_mnt2 = fsmount(fd_fs); move_mount(fd_mnt1, "/A") move_mount(fd_mnt2, "/B") Not just does P2 get a bind-mount but the mount options that P2 requestes are silently ignored. The VFS itself doesn't, can't and shouldn't enforce filesystem specific mount option compatibility. It only enforces incompatibility for read-only <-> read-write transitions: mount -t ext4 /dev/sda /A mount -t ext4 -o ro /dev/sda /B The read-only request will fail with EBUSY as the VFS can't just silently transition a superblock from read-write to read-only or vica versa without risking security issues. To userspace this silent superblock reuse can become a security issue in because there is currently no straightforward way for userspace to know that they did indeed manage to create a new superblock and didn't just reuse an existing one. This adds a new FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL command to fsconfig() that returns EBUSY if an existing superblock would be reused. Userspace that needs to be sure that it did create a new superblock with the requested mount options can request superblock creation using this command. If the command succeeds they can be sure that they did create a new superblock with the requested mount options. This requires the new mount api. With the old mount api it would be necessary to plumb this through every legacy filesystem's file_system_type->mount() method. If they want this feature they are most welcome to switch to the new mount api. Following is an analysis of the effect of FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL on each high-level superblock creation helper: (1) get_tree_nodev() Always allocate new superblock. Hence, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE and FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL are equivalent. The binderfs or overlayfs filesystems are examples. (4) get_tree_keyed() Finds an existing superblock based on sb->s_fs_info. Hence, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE would reuse an existing superblock whereas FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL would reject it with EBUSY. The mqueue or nfsd filesystems are examples. (2) get_tree_bdev() This effectively works like get_tree_keyed(). The ext4 or xfs filesystems are examples. (3) get_tree_single() Only one superblock of this filesystem type can ever exist. Hence, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE would reuse an existing superblock whereas FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL would reject it with EBUSY. The securityfs or configfs filesystems are examples. Note that some single-instance filesystems never destroy the superblock once it has been created during the first mount. For example, if securityfs has been mounted at least onces then the created superblock will never be destroyed again as long as there is still an LSM making use it.

super: wait for nascent superblocks Recent patches experiment with making it possible to allocate a new superblock before opening the relevant block device. Naturally this has intricate side-effects that we get to learn about while developing this. Superblock allocators such as sget{_fc}() return with s_umount of the new superblock held and lock ordering currently requires that block level locks such as bdev_lock and open_mutex rank above s_umount. Before aca740cecbe5 ("fs: open block device after superblock creation") ordering was guaranteed to be correct as block devices were opened prior to superblock allocation and thus s_umount wasn't held. But now s_umount must be dropped before opening block devices to avoid locking violations. This has consequences. The main one being that iterators over @super_blocks and @fs_supers that grab a temporary reference to the superblock can now also grab s_umount before the caller has managed to open block devices and called fill_super(). So whereas before such iterators or concurrent mounts would have simply slept on s_umount until SB_BORN was set or the superblock was discard due to initalization failure they can now needlessly spin through sget{_fc}(). If the caller is sleeping on bdev_lock or open_mutex one caller waiting on SB_BORN will always spin somewhere and potentially this can go on for quite a while. It should be possible to drop s_umount while allowing iterators to wait on a nascent superblock to either be born or discarded. This patch implements a wait_var_event() mechanism allowing iterators to sleep until they are woken when the superblock is born or discarded. This also allows us to avoid relooping through @fs_supers and @super_blocks if a superblock isn't yet born or dying.

To userspace this silent superblock reuse can become a security issue in because there is currently no straightforward way for userspace to know that they did indeed manage to create a new superblock and didn't just reuse an existing one. This adds a new FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL command to fsconfig() that returns EBUSY if an existing superblock would be reused. Userspace that needs to be sure that it did create a new superblock with the requested mount options can request superblock creation using this command. If the command succeeds they can be sure that they did create a new superblock with the requested mount options. This requires the new mount api. With the old mount api it would be necessary to plumb this through every legacy filesystem's file_system_type->mount() method. If they want this feature they are most welcome to switch to the new mount api. Following is an analysis of the effect of FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL on each high-level superblock creation helper: (1) get_tree_nodev() Always allocate new superblock. Hence, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE and FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL are equivalent. The binderfs or overlayfs filesystems are examples. (4) get_tree_keyed() Finds an existing superblock based on sb->s_fs_info. Hence, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE would reuse an existing superblock whereas FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL would reject it with EBUSY. The mqueue or nfsd filesystems are examples. (2) get_tree_bdev() This effectively works like get_tree_keyed(). The ext4 or xfs filesystems are examples. (3) get_tree_single() Only one superblock of this filesystem type can ever exist. Hence, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE would reuse an existing superblock whereas FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL would reject it with EBUSY. The securityfs or configfs filesystems are examples. Note that some single-instance filesystems never destroy the superblock once it has been created during the first mount. For example, if securityfs has been mounted at least onces then the created superblock will never be destroyed again as long as there is still an LSM making use it. Consequently, even if securityfs is unmounted and the superblock seemingly destroyed it really isn't which means that FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL will continue rejecting reusing an existing superblock. This is acceptable thugh since special purpose filesystems such as this shouldn't have a need to use FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL anyway and if they do it's probably to make sure that mount options aren't ignored. Following is an analysis of the effect of FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL on filesystems that make use of the low-level sget_fc() helper directly. They're all effectively variants on get_tree_keyed(), get_tree_bdev(), or get_tree_nodev(): (5) mtd_get_sb() Similar logic to get_tree_keyed(). (6) afs_get_tree() Similar logic to get_tree_keyed(). (7) ceph_get_tree() Similar logic to get_tree_keyed(). Already explicitly allows forcing the allocation of a new superblock via CEPH_OPT_NOSHARE. This turns it into get_tree_nodev(). (8) fuse_get_tree_submount() Similar logic to get_tree_nodev(). (9) fuse_get_tree() Forces reuse of existing FUSE superblock. Forces reuse of existing superblock if passed in file refers to an existing FUSE connection. If FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL is specified together with an fd referring to an existing FUSE connections this would cause the superblock reusal to fail. If reusing is the intent then FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL shouldn't be specified. (10) fuse_get_tree() -> get_tree_nodev() Same logic as in get_tree_nodev(). (11) fuse_get_tree() -> get_tree_bdev() Same logic as in get_tree_bdev(). (12) virtio_fs_get_tree() Same logic as get_tree_keyed(). (13) gfs2_meta_get_tree() Forces reuse of existing gfs2 superblock. Mounting gfs2meta enforces that a gf2s superblock must already exist. If not, it will error out. Consequently, mounting gfs2meta with FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL would always fail. If reusing is the intent then FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL shouldn't be specified. (14) kernfs_get_tree() Similar logic to get_tree_keyed(). (15) nfs_get_tree_common() Similar logic to get_tree_keyed(). Already explicitly allows forcing the allocation of a new superblock via NFS_MOUNT_UNSHARED. This effectively turns it into get_tree_nodev().

fs: add FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL Summary ======= This introduces FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL which will allows userspace to implement something like mount -t ext4 --exclusive /dev/sda /B which fails if a superblock for the requested filesystem does already exist: Before this patch ----------------- $ sudo ./move-mount -f xfs -o source=/dev/sda4 /A Requesting filesystem type xfs Mount options requested: source=/dev/sda4 Attaching mount at /A Moving single attached mount Setting key(source) with val(/dev/sda4) $ sudo ./move-mount -f xfs -o source=/dev/sda4 /B Requesting filesystem type xfs Mount options requested: source=/dev/sda4 Attaching mount at /B Moving single attached mount Setting key(source) with val(/dev/sda4) After this patch with --exclusive as a switch for FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE_EXCL -------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ sudo ./move-mount -f xfs --exclusive -o source=/dev/sda4 /A Requesting filesystem type xfs Request exclusive superblock creation Mount options requested: source=/dev/sda4 Attaching mount at /A Moving single attached mount Setting key(source) with val(/dev/sda4) $ sudo ./move-mount -f xfs --exclusive -o source=/dev/sda4 /B Requesting filesystem type xfs Request exclusive superblock creation Mount options requested: source=/dev/sda4 Attaching mount at /B Moving single attached mount Setting key(source) with val(/dev/sda4) Device or resource busy | move-mount.c: 300: do_fsconfig: i xfs: reusing existing filesystem not allowed Details ======= As mentioned on the list (cf. [1]-[3]) mount requests like mount -t ext4 /dev/sda /A are ambigous for userspace. Either a new superblock has been created and mounted or an existing superblock has been reused and a bind-mount has been created. This becomes clear in the following example where two processes create the same mount for the same block device: P1 P2 fd_fs = fsopen("ext4"); fd_fs = fsopen("ext4"); fsconfig(fd_fs, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "source", "/dev/sda"); fsconfig(fd_fs, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "source", "/dev/sda"); fsconfig(fd_fs, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "dax", "always"); fsconfig(fd_fs, FSCONFIG_SET_STRING, "resuid", "1000"); // wins and creates superblock fsconfig(fd_fs, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE, ...) // finds compatible superblock of P1 // spins until P1 sets SB_BORN and grabs a reference fsconfig(fd_fs, FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE, ...) fd_mnt1 = fsmount(fd_fs); fd_mnt2 = fsmount(fd_fs); move_mount(fd_mnt1, "/A") move_mount(fd_mnt2, "/B") Not just does P2 get a bind-mount but the mount options that P2 requestes are silently ignored. The VFS itself doesn't, can't and shouldn't enforce filesystem specific mount option compatibility. It only enforces incompatibility for read-only <-> read-write transitions: mount -t ext4 /dev/sda /A mount -t ext4 -o ro /dev/sda /B The read-only request will fail with EBUSY as the VFS can't just silently transition a superblock from read-write to read-only or vica versa without risking security issues.

hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member) The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter: hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member) Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate. Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required: - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones. - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this was modified to use 'obj->member' instead. - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

fs: Add user namespace member to struct super_block Start marking filesystems with a user namespace owner, s_user_ns. In this change this is only used for permission checks of who may mount a filesystem. Ultimately s_user_ns will be used for translating ids and checking capabilities for filesystems mounted from user namespaces. The default policy for setting s_user_ns is implemented in sget(), which arranges for s_user_ns to be set to current_user_ns() and to ensure that the mounter of the filesystem has CAP_SYS_ADMIN in that user_ns. The guts of sget are split out into another function sget_userns(). The function sget_userns calls alloc_super with the specified user namespace or it verifies the existing superblock that was found has the expected user namespace, and fails with EBUSY when it is not. This failing prevents users with the wrong privileges mounting a filesystem. The reason for the split of sget_userns from sget is that in some cases such as mount_ns and kernfs_mount_ns a different policy for permission checking of mounts and setting s_user_ns is necessary, and the existence of sget_userns() allows those policies to be implemented. The helper mount_ns is expected to be used for filesystems such as proc and mqueuefs which present per namespace information. The function mount_ns is modified to call sget_userns instead of sget to ensure the user namespace owner of the namespace whose information is presented by the filesystem is used on the superblock. For sysfs and cgroup the appropriate permission checks are already in place, and kernfs_mount_ns is modified to call sget_userns so that the init_user_ns is the only user namespace used. For the cgroup filesystem cgroup namespace mounts are bind mounts of a subset of the full cgroup filesystem and as such s_user_ns must be the same for all of them as there is only a single superblock. Mounts of sysfs that vary based on the network namespace could in principle change s_user_ns but it keeps the analysis and implementation of kernfs simpler if that is not supported, and at present there appear to be no benefits from supporting a different s_user_ns on any sysfs mount. Getting the details of setting s_user_ns correct has been a long process. Thanks to Pavel Tikhorirorv who spotted a leak in sget_userns. Thanks to Seth Forshee who has kept the work alive.

super: wait for nascent superblocks Recent patches experiment with making it possible to allocate a new superblock before opening the relevant block device. Naturally this has intricate side-effects that we get to learn about while developing this. Superblock allocators such as sget{_fc}() return with s_umount of the new superblock held and lock ordering currently requires that block level locks such as bdev_lock and open_mutex rank above s_umount. Before aca740cecbe5 ("fs: open block device after superblock creation") ordering was guaranteed to be correct as block devices were opened prior to superblock allocation and thus s_umount wasn't held. But now s_umount must be dropped before opening block devices to avoid locking violations. This has consequences. The main one being that iterators over @super_blocks and @fs_supers that grab a temporary reference to the superblock can now also grab s_umount before the caller has managed to open block devices and called fill_super(). So whereas before such iterators or concurrent mounts would have simply slept on s_umount until SB_BORN was set or the superblock was discard due to initalization failure they can now needlessly spin through sget{_fc}(). If the caller is sleeping on bdev_lock or open_mutex one caller waiting on SB_BORN will always spin somewhere and potentially this can go on for quite a while. It should be possible to drop s_umount while allowing iterators to wait on a nascent superblock to either be born or discarded. This patch implements a wait_var_event() mechanism allowing iterators to sleep until they are woken when the superblock is born or discarded. This also allows us to avoid relooping through @fs_supers and @super_blocks if a superblock isn't yet born or dying.

hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member) The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter: hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member) Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate. Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required: - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones. - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this was modified to use 'obj->member' instead. - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

super: wait for nascent superblocks Recent patches experiment with making it possible to allocate a new superblock before opening the relevant block device. Naturally this has intricate side-effects that we get to learn about while developing this. Superblock allocators such as sget{_fc}() return with s_umount of the new superblock held and lock ordering currently requires that block level locks such as bdev_lock and open_mutex rank above s_umount. Before aca740cecbe5 ("fs: open block device after superblock creation") ordering was guaranteed to be correct as block devices were opened prior to superblock allocation and thus s_umount wasn't held. But now s_umount must be dropped before opening block devices to avoid locking violations. This has consequences. The main one being that iterators over @super_blocks and @fs_supers that grab a temporary reference to the superblock can now also grab s_umount before the caller has managed to open block devices and called fill_super(). So whereas before such iterators or concurrent mounts would have simply slept on s_umount until SB_BORN was set or the superblock was discard due to initalization failure they can now needlessly spin through sget{_fc}(). If the caller is sleeping on bdev_lock or open_mutex one caller waiting on SB_BORN will always spin somewhere and potentially this can go on for quite a while. It should be possible to drop s_umount while allowing iterators to wait on a nascent superblock to either be born or discarded. This patch implements a wait_var_event() mechanism allowing iterators to sleep until they are woken when the superblock is born or discarded.

fs: Improve filesystem freezing handling vfs_check_frozen() tests are racy since the filesystem can be frozen just after the test is performed. Thus in write paths we can end up marking some pages or inodes dirty even though the file system is already frozen. This creates problems with flusher thread hanging on frozen filesystem. Another problem is that exclusion between ->page_mkwrite() and filesystem freezing has been handled by setting page dirty and then verifying s_frozen. This guaranteed that either the freezing code sees the faulted page, writes it, and writeprotects it again or we see s_frozen set and bail out of page fault. This works to protect from page being marked writeable while filesystem freezing is running but has an unpleasant artefact of leaving dirty (although unmodified and writeprotected) pages on frozen filesystem resulting in similar problems with flusher thread as the first problem. This patch aims at providing exclusion between write paths and filesystem freezing. We implement a writer-freeze read-write semaphore in the superblock. Actually, there are three such semaphores because of lock ranking reasons - one for page fault handlers (->page_mkwrite), one for all other writers, and one of internal filesystem purposes (used e.g. to track running transactions). Write paths which should block freezing (e.g. directory operations, ->aio_write(), ->page_mkwrite) hold reader side of the semaphore. Code freezing the filesystem takes the writer side. Only that we don't really want to bounce cachelines of the semaphores between CPUs for each write happening. So we implement the reader side of the semaphore as a per-cpu counter and the writer side is implemented using s_writers.frozen superblock field.

[PATCH] BLOCK: Make it possible to disable the block layer [try #6] Make it possible to disable the block layer. Not all embedded devices require it, some can make do with just JFFS2, NFS, ramfs, etc - none of which require the block layer to be present. This patch does the following: (*) Introduces CONFIG_BLOCK to disable the block layer, buffering and blockdev support. (*) Adds dependencies on CONFIG_BLOCK to any configuration item that controls an item that uses the block layer. This includes: (*) Block I/O tracing. (*) Disk partition code. (*) All filesystems that are block based, eg: Ext3, ReiserFS, ISOFS. (*) The SCSI layer. As far as I can tell, even SCSI chardevs use the block layer to do scheduling. Some drivers that use SCSI facilities - such as USB storage - end up disabled indirectly from this. (*) Various block-based device drivers, such as IDE and the old CDROM drivers. (*) MTD blockdev handling and FTL. (*) JFFS - which uses set_bdev_super(), something it could avoid doing by taking a leaf out of JFFS2's book. (*) Makes most of the contents of linux/blkdev.h, linux/buffer_head.h and linux/elevator.h contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK being set. sector_div() is, however, still used in places, and so is still available. (*) Also made contingent are the contents of linux/mpage.h, linux/genhd.h and parts of linux/fs.h. (*) Makes a number of files in fs/ contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) Makes mm/bounce.c (bounce buffering) contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) set_page_dirty() doesn't call __set_page_dirty_buffers() if CONFIG_BLOCK is not enabled. (*) fs/no-block.c is created to hold out-of-line stubs and things that are required when CONFIG_BLOCK is not set: (*) Default blockdev file operations (to give error ENODEV on opening). (*) Makes some /proc changes: (*) /proc/devices does not list any blockdevs. (*) /proc/diskstats and /proc/partitions are contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) Makes some compat ioctl handling contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) If CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined, makes sys_quotactl() return -ENODEV if given command other than Q_SYNC or if a special device is specified. (*) In init/do_mounts.c, no reference is made to the blockdev routines if CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined. This does not prohibit NFS roots or JFFS2. (*) The bdflush, ioprio_set and ioprio_get syscalls can now be absent (return error ENOSYS by way of cond_syscall if so). (*) The seclvl_bd_claim() and seclvl_bd_release() security calls do nothing if CONFIG_BLOCK is not set, since they can't then happen.

super: add filesystem freezing helpers for suspend and hibernate Allow the power subsystem to support filesystem freeze for suspend and hibernate. For some kernel subsystems it is paramount that they are guaranteed that they are the owner of the freeze to avoid any risk of deadlocks. This is the case for the power subsystem. Enable it to recognize whether it did actually freeze the filesystem. If userspace has 10 filesystems and suspend/hibernate manges to freeze 5 and then fails on the 6th for whatever odd reason (current or future) then power needs to undo the freeze of the first 5 filesystems. It can't just walk the list again because while it's unlikely that a new filesystem got added in the meantime it still cannot tell which filesystems the power subsystem actually managed to get a freeze reference count on that needs to be dropped during thaw. There's various ways out of this ugliness. For example, record the filesystems the power subsystem managed to freeze on a temporary list in the callbacks and then walk that list backwards during thaw to undo the freezing or make sure that the power subsystem just actually exclusively freezes things it can freeze and marking such filesystems as being owned by power for the duration of the suspend or resume cycle. I opted for the latter as that seemed the clean thing to do even if it means more code changes. If hibernation races with filesystem freezing (e.g. DM reconfiguration), then hibernation need not freeze a filesystem because it's already frozen but userspace may thaw the filesystem before hibernation actually happens. If the race happens the other way around, DM reconfiguration may unexpectedly fail with EBUSY. So allow FREEZE_EXCL to nest with other holders.

super: ensure valid info For keyed filesystems that recycle superblocks based on s_fs_info or information contained therein s_fs_info must be kept as long as the superblock is on the filesystem type super list. This isn't guaranteed as s_fs_info will be freed latest in sb->kill_sb(). The fix is simply to perform notification and list removal in kill_anon_super(). Any filesystem needs to free s_fs_info after they call the kill_*() helpers. If they don't they risk use-after-free right now so fixing it here is guaranteed that s_fs_info remain valid. For block backed filesystems notifying in pass sb->kill_sb() in deactivate_locked_super() remains unproblematic and is required because multiple other block devices can be shut down after kill_block_super() has been called from a filesystem's sb->kill_sb() handler. For example, ext4 and xfs close additional devices. Block based filesystems don't depend on s_fs_info (btrfs does use s_fs_info but also uses kill_anon_super() and not kill_block_super().). Sorry for that braino. Goal should be to unify this behavior during this cycle obviously. But let's please do a simple bugfix now.

[PATCH] BLOCK: Make it possible to disable the block layer [try #6] Make it possible to disable the block layer. Not all embedded devices require it, some can make do with just JFFS2, NFS, ramfs, etc - none of which require the block layer to be present. This patch does the following: (*) Introduces CONFIG_BLOCK to disable the block layer, buffering and blockdev support. (*) Adds dependencies on CONFIG_BLOCK to any configuration item that controls an item that uses the block layer. This includes: (*) Block I/O tracing. (*) Disk partition code. (*) All filesystems that are block based, eg: Ext3, ReiserFS, ISOFS. (*) The SCSI layer. As far as I can tell, even SCSI chardevs use the block layer to do scheduling. Some drivers that use SCSI facilities - such as USB storage - end up disabled indirectly from this. (*) Various block-based device drivers, such as IDE and the old CDROM drivers. (*) MTD blockdev handling and FTL. (*) JFFS - which uses set_bdev_super(), something it could avoid doing by taking a leaf out of JFFS2's book. (*) Makes most of the contents of linux/blkdev.h, linux/buffer_head.h and linux/elevator.h contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK being set. sector_div() is, however, still used in places, and so is still available. (*) Also made contingent are the contents of linux/mpage.h, linux/genhd.h and parts of linux/fs.h. (*) Makes a number of files in fs/ contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) Makes mm/bounce.c (bounce buffering) contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) set_page_dirty() doesn't call __set_page_dirty_buffers() if CONFIG_BLOCK is not enabled. (*) fs/no-block.c is created to hold out-of-line stubs and things that are required when CONFIG_BLOCK is not set: (*) Default blockdev file operations (to give error ENODEV on opening). (*) Makes some /proc changes: (*) /proc/devices does not list any blockdevs. (*) /proc/diskstats and /proc/partitions are contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) Makes some compat ioctl handling contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) If CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined, makes sys_quotactl() return -ENODEV if given command other than Q_SYNC or if a special device is specified. (*) In init/do_mounts.c, no reference is made to the blockdev routines if CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined. This does not prohibit NFS roots or JFFS2. (*) The bdflush, ioprio_set and ioprio_get syscalls can now be absent (return error ENOSYS by way of cond_syscall if so). (*) The seclvl_bd_claim() and seclvl_bd_release() security calls do nothing if CONFIG_BLOCK is not set, since they can't then happen.

fs: handle freezing from multiple devices Before [1] freezing a filesystems through the block layer only worked for the main block device as the owning superblock of additional block devices could not be found. Any filesystem that made use of multiple block devices would only be freezable via it's main block device. For example, consider xfs over device mapper with /dev/dm-0 as main block device and /dev/dm-1 as external log device. Two freeze requests before [1]: (1) dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-0 on the main block device bdev_freeze(dm-0) -> dm-0->bd_fsfreeze_count++ -> freeze_super(xfs-sb) The owning superblock is found and the filesystem gets frozen. Returns 0. (2) dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-1 on the log device bdev_freeze(dm-1) -> dm-1->bd_fsfreeze_count++ The owning superblock isn't found and only the block device freeze count is incremented. Returns 0. Two freeze requests after [1]: (1') dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-0 on the main block device bdev_freeze(dm-0) -> dm-0->bd_fsfreeze_count++ -> freeze_super(xfs-sb) The owning superblock is found and the filesystem gets frozen. Returns 0. (2') dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-1 on the log device bdev_freeze(dm-0) -> dm-0->bd_fsfreeze_count++ -> freeze_super(xfs-sb) The owning superblock is found and the filesystem gets frozen. Returns -EBUSY. When (2') is called we initiate a freeze from another block device of the same superblock. So we increment the bd_fsfreeze_count for that additional block device. But we now also find the owning superblock for additional block devices and call freeze_super() again which reports -EBUSY. This can be reproduced through xfstests via: mkfs.xfs -f -m crc=1,reflink=1,rmapbt=1, -i sparse=1 -lsize=1g,logdev=/dev/nvme1n1p4 /dev/nvme1n1p3 mkfs.xfs -f -m crc=1,reflink=1,rmapbt=1, -i sparse=1 -lsize=1g,logdev=/dev/nvme1n1p6 /dev/nvme1n1p5 FSTYP=xfs export TEST_DEV=/dev/nvme1n1p3 export TEST_DIR=/mnt/test export TEST_LOGDEV=/dev/nvme1n1p4 export SCRATCH_DEV=/dev/nvme1n1p5 export SCRATCH_MNT=/mnt/scratch export SCRATCH_LOGDEV=/dev/nvme1n1p6 export USE_EXTERNAL=yes sudo ./check generic/311 Current semantics allow two concurrent freezers: one initiated from userspace via FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE and one initiated from the kernel via FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL. If there are multiple concurrent freeze requests from either FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE or FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL -EBUSY is returned. We need to preserve these semantics because as they are uapi via FIFREEZE and FITHAW ioctl()s. IOW, freezes don't nest for FIFREEZE and FITHAW. Other kernels consumers rely on non-nesting freezes as well. With freezes initiated from the block layer freezes need to nest if the same superblock is frozen via multiple devices. So we need to start counting the number of freeze requests. If FREEZE_MAY_NEST is passed alongside FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL or FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE we allow the caller to nest freeze calls. To accommodate the old semantics we split the freeze counter into two counting kernel initiated and userspace initiated freezes separately. We can then also stop recording FREEZE_HOLDER_* in struct sb_writers. We also simplify freezing by making all concurrent freezers share a single active superblock reference count instead of having separate references for kernel and userspace. I don't see why we would need two active reference counts. Neither FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL nor FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE can put the active reference as long as they are concurrent freezers anwyay. That was already true before we allowed nesting freezes. Survives various fstests runs with different options including the reproducer, online scrub, and online repair, fsfreze, and so on.

super: add filesystem freezing helpers for suspend and hibernate Allow the power subsystem to support filesystem freeze for suspend and hibernate. For some kernel subsystems it is paramount that they are guaranteed that they are the owner of the freeze to avoid any risk of deadlocks. This is the case for the power subsystem. Enable it to recognize whether it did actually freeze the filesystem. If userspace has 10 filesystems and suspend/hibernate manges to freeze 5 and then fails on the 6th for whatever odd reason (current or future) then power needs to undo the freeze of the first 5 filesystems. It can't just walk the list again because while it's unlikely that a new filesystem got added in the meantime it still cannot tell which filesystems the power subsystem actually managed to get a freeze reference count on that needs to be dropped during thaw. There's various ways out of this ugliness. For example, record the filesystems the power subsystem managed to freeze on a temporary list in the callbacks and then walk that list backwards during thaw to undo the freezing or make sure that the power subsystem just actually exclusively freezes things it can freeze and marking such filesystems as being owned by power for the duration of the suspend or resume cycle. I opted for the latter as that seemed the clean thing to do even if it means more code changes. If hibernation races with filesystem freezing (e.g. DM reconfiguration), then hibernation need not freeze a filesystem because it's already frozen but userspace may thaw the filesystem before hibernation actually happens. If the race happens the other way around, DM reconfiguration may unexpectedly fail with EBUSY. So allow FREEZE_EXCL to nest with other holders. An exclusive freezer cannot be undone by any of the other concurrent freezers.

The mounter is already about to abort mounting because they still saw an elevanted bdev->bd_fsfreeze_count so get_bdev_super() will return NULL in that case. For example, P1 calls dm_suspend() which calls into bdev_freeze() before the block device has been claimed by the filesystem. This brings bdev->bd_fsfreeze_count to 1 and no call into fs_bdev_freeze() is required. Now P2 tries to mount that frozen block device. It claims it and checks bdev->bd_fsfreeze_count. As it's elevated it aborts mounting. In the meantime P3 called dm_resume(). P3 sees that the block device is already claimed by a filesystem and calls into fs_bdev_thaw(). P3 takes a passive reference and realizes that the filesystem isn't ready yet. P3 puts itself to sleep to wait for the filesystem to become ready. P2 now puts the last active reference to the filesystem and marks it as dying. P3 gets woken, sees that the filesystem is dying and get_bdev_super() fails.

fs: handle freezing from multiple devices Before [1] freezing a filesystems through the block layer only worked for the main block device as the owning superblock of additional block devices could not be found. Any filesystem that made use of multiple block devices would only be freezable via it's main block device. For example, consider xfs over device mapper with /dev/dm-0 as main block device and /dev/dm-1 as external log device. Two freeze requests before [1]: (1) dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-0 on the main block device bdev_freeze(dm-0) -> dm-0->bd_fsfreeze_count++ -> freeze_super(xfs-sb) The owning superblock is found and the filesystem gets frozen. Returns 0. (2) dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-1 on the log device bdev_freeze(dm-1) -> dm-1->bd_fsfreeze_count++ The owning superblock isn't found and only the block device freeze count is incremented. Returns 0. Two freeze requests after [1]: (1') dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-0 on the main block device bdev_freeze(dm-0) -> dm-0->bd_fsfreeze_count++ -> freeze_super(xfs-sb) The owning superblock is found and the filesystem gets frozen. Returns 0. (2') dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-1 on the log device bdev_freeze(dm-0) -> dm-0->bd_fsfreeze_count++ -> freeze_super(xfs-sb) The owning superblock is found and the filesystem gets frozen. Returns -EBUSY. When (2') is called we initiate a freeze from another block device of the same superblock. So we increment the bd_fsfreeze_count for that additional block device. But we now also find the owning superblock for additional block devices and call freeze_super() again which reports -EBUSY. This can be reproduced through xfstests via: mkfs.xfs -f -m crc=1,reflink=1,rmapbt=1, -i sparse=1 -lsize=1g,logdev=/dev/nvme1n1p4 /dev/nvme1n1p3 mkfs.xfs -f -m crc=1,reflink=1,rmapbt=1, -i sparse=1 -lsize=1g,logdev=/dev/nvme1n1p6 /dev/nvme1n1p5 FSTYP=xfs export TEST_DEV=/dev/nvme1n1p3 export TEST_DIR=/mnt/test export TEST_LOGDEV=/dev/nvme1n1p4 export SCRATCH_DEV=/dev/nvme1n1p5 export SCRATCH_MNT=/mnt/scratch export SCRATCH_LOGDEV=/dev/nvme1n1p6 export USE_EXTERNAL=yes sudo ./check generic/311 Current semantics allow two concurrent freezers: one initiated from userspace via FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE and one initiated from the kernel via FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL. If there are multiple concurrent freeze requests from either FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE or FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL -EBUSY is returned. We need to preserve these semantics because as they are uapi via FIFREEZE and FITHAW ioctl()s. IOW, freezes don't nest for FIFREEZE and FITHAW. Other kernels consumers rely on non-nesting freezes as well. With freezes initiated from the block layer freezes need to nest if the same superblock is frozen via multiple devices. So we need to start counting the number of freeze requests. If FREEZE_MAY_NEST is passed alongside FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL or FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE we allow the caller to nest freeze calls. To accommodate the old semantics we split the freeze counter into two counting kernel initiated and userspace initiated freezes separately. We can then also stop recording FREEZE_HOLDER_* in struct sb_writers. We also simplify freezing by making all concurrent freezers share a single active superblock reference count instead of having separate references for kernel and userspace. I don't see why we would need two active reference counts. Neither FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL nor FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE can put the active reference as long as they are concurrent freezers anwyay. That was already true before we allowed nesting freezes. Survives various fstests runs with different options including the reproducer, online scrub, and online repair, fsfreze, and so on. Also survives blktests.

super: add filesystem freezing helpers for suspend and hibernate Allow the power subsystem to support filesystem freeze for suspend and hibernate. For some kernel subsystems it is paramount that they are guaranteed that they are the owner of the freeze to avoid any risk of deadlocks. This is the case for the power subsystem. Enable it to recognize whether it did actually freeze the filesystem. If userspace has 10 filesystems and suspend/hibernate manges to freeze 5 and then fails on the 6th for whatever odd reason (current or future) then power needs to undo the freeze of the first 5 filesystems. It can't just walk the list again because while it's unlikely that a new filesystem got added in the meantime it still cannot tell which filesystems the power subsystem actually managed to get a freeze reference count on that needs to be dropped during thaw. There's various ways out of this ugliness. For example, record the filesystems the power subsystem managed to freeze on a temporary list in the callbacks and then walk that list backwards during thaw to undo the freezing or make sure that the power subsystem just actually exclusively freezes things it can freeze and marking such filesystems as being owned by power for the duration of the suspend or resume cycle. I opted for the latter as that seemed the clean thing to do even if it means more code changes. If hibernation races with filesystem freezing (e.g. DM reconfiguration), then hibernation need not freeze a filesystem because it's already frozen but userspace may thaw the filesystem before hibernation actually happens. If the race happens the other way around, DM reconfiguration may unexpectedly fail with EBUSY. So allow FREEZE_EXCL to nest with other holders. An exclusive freezer cannot be undone by any of the other concurrent freezers.

[PATCH] BLOCK: Make it possible to disable the block layer [try #6] Make it possible to disable the block layer. Not all embedded devices require it, some can make do with just JFFS2, NFS, ramfs, etc - none of which require the block layer to be present. This patch does the following: (*) Introduces CONFIG_BLOCK to disable the block layer, buffering and blockdev support. (*) Adds dependencies on CONFIG_BLOCK to any configuration item that controls an item that uses the block layer. This includes: (*) Block I/O tracing. (*) Disk partition code. (*) All filesystems that are block based, eg: Ext3, ReiserFS, ISOFS. (*) The SCSI layer. As far as I can tell, even SCSI chardevs use the block layer to do scheduling. Some drivers that use SCSI facilities - such as USB storage - end up disabled indirectly from this. (*) Various block-based device drivers, such as IDE and the old CDROM drivers. (*) MTD blockdev handling and FTL. (*) JFFS - which uses set_bdev_super(), something it could avoid doing by taking a leaf out of JFFS2's book. (*) Makes most of the contents of linux/blkdev.h, linux/buffer_head.h and linux/elevator.h contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK being set. sector_div() is, however, still used in places, and so is still available. (*) Also made contingent are the contents of linux/mpage.h, linux/genhd.h and parts of linux/fs.h. (*) Makes a number of files in fs/ contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) Makes mm/bounce.c (bounce buffering) contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) set_page_dirty() doesn't call __set_page_dirty_buffers() if CONFIG_BLOCK is not enabled. (*) fs/no-block.c is created to hold out-of-line stubs and things that are required when CONFIG_BLOCK is not set: (*) Default blockdev file operations (to give error ENODEV on opening). (*) Makes some /proc changes: (*) /proc/devices does not list any blockdevs. (*) /proc/diskstats and /proc/partitions are contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) Makes some compat ioctl handling contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) If CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined, makes sys_quotactl() return -ENODEV if given command other than Q_SYNC or if a special device is specified. (*) In init/do_mounts.c, no reference is made to the blockdev routines if CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined. This does not prohibit NFS roots or JFFS2. (*) The bdflush, ioprio_set and ioprio_get syscalls can now be absent (return error ENOSYS by way of cond_syscall if so). (*) The seclvl_bd_claim() and seclvl_bd_release() security calls do nothing if CONFIG_BLOCK is not set, since they can't then happen.

Essentially we are exposed to both use-after-free and use-before-initialisation bugs here. To fix this, add a check for the SB_BORN flag in super_cache_count. In general, this flag is not set until ->fs_mount() completes successfully, so we know that it is set after the filesystem setup has completed. This matches the trylock_super() behaviour which will not let super_cache_scan() run if SB_BORN is not set, and hence will not allow the superblock shrinker from entering the filesystem while it is being set up or after it has failed setup and is being torn down.

super: wait for nascent superblocks Recent patches experiment with making it possible to allocate a new superblock before opening the relevant block device. Naturally this has intricate side-effects that we get to learn about while developing this. Superblock allocators such as sget{_fc}() return with s_umount of the new superblock held and lock ordering currently requires that block level locks such as bdev_lock and open_mutex rank above s_umount. Before aca740cecbe5 ("fs: open block device after superblock creation") ordering was guaranteed to be correct as block devices were opened prior to superblock allocation and thus s_umount wasn't held. But now s_umount must be dropped before opening block devices to avoid locking violations. This has consequences. The main one being that iterators over @super_blocks and @fs_supers that grab a temporary reference to the superblock can now also grab s_umount before the caller has managed to open block devices and called fill_super(). So whereas before such iterators or concurrent mounts would have simply slept on s_umount until SB_BORN was set or the superblock was discard due to initalization failure they can now needlessly spin through sget{_fc}(). If the caller is sleeping on bdev_lock or open_mutex one caller waiting on SB_BORN will always spin somewhere and potentially this can go on for quite a while. It should be possible to drop s_umount while allowing iterators to wait on a nascent superblock to either be born or discarded. This patch implements a wait_var_event() mechanism allowing iterators to sleep until they are woken when the superblock is born or discarded. This also allows us to avoid relooping through @fs_supers and @super_blocks if a superblock isn't yet born or dying.

[PATCH] VFS: Permit filesystem to override root dentry on mount Extend the get_sb() filesystem operation to take an extra argument that permits the VFS to pass in the target vfsmount that defines the mountpoint. The filesystem is then required to manually set the superblock and root dentry pointers. For most filesystems, this should be done with simple_set_mnt() which will set the superblock pointer and then set the root dentry to the superblock's s_root (as per the old default behaviour). The get_sb() op now returns an integer as there's now no need to return the superblock pointer. This patch permits a superblock to be implicitly shared amongst several mount points, such as can be done with NFS to avoid potential inode aliasing. In such a case, simple_set_mnt() would not be called, and instead the mnt_root and mnt_sb would be set directly. The patch also makes the following changes: (*) the get_sb_*() convenience functions in the core kernel now take a vfsmount pointer argument and return an integer, so most filesystems have to change very little. (*) If one of the convenience function is not used, then get_sb() should normally call simple_set_mnt() to instantiate the vfsmount. This will always return 0, and so can be tail-called from get_sb(). (*) generic_shutdown_super() now calls shrink_dcache_sb() to clean up the dcache upon superblock destruction rather than shrink_dcache_anon(). This is required because the superblock may now have multiple trees that aren't actually bound to s_root, but that still need to be cleaned up. The currently called functions assume that the whole tree is rooted at s_root, and that anonymous dentries are not the roots of trees which results in dentries being left unculled. However, with the way NFS superblock sharing are currently set to be implemented, these assumptions are violated: the root of the filesystem is simply a dummy dentry and inode (the real inode for '/' may well be inaccessible), and all the vfsmounts are rooted on anonymous[*] dentries with child trees. [*] Anonymous until discovered from another tree. (*) The documentation has been adjusted, including the additional bit of changing ext2_* into foo_* in the documentation.

vfs_get_tree(): evict the call of security_sb_kern_mount() Right now vfs_get_tree() calls security_sb_kern_mount() (i.e. mount MAC) unless it gets MS_KERNMOUNT or MS_SUBMOUNT in flags. Doing it that way is both clumsy and imprecise. Consider the callers' tree of vfs_get_tree(): vfs_get_tree() <- do_new_mount() <- vfs_kern_mount() <- simple_pin_fs() <- vfs_submount() <- kern_mount_data() <- init_mount_tree() <- btrfs_mount() <- vfs_get_tree() <- nfs_do_root_mount() <- nfs4_try_mount() <- nfs_fs_mount() <- vfs_get_tree() <- nfs4_referral_mount() do_new_mount() always does need MAC (we are guaranteed that neither MS_KERNMOUNT nor MS_SUBMOUNT will be passed there). simple_pin_fs(), vfs_submount() and kern_mount_data() pass explicit flags inhibiting that check. So does nfs4_referral_mount() (the flags there are ulimately coming from vfs_submount()). init_mount_tree() is called too early for anything LSM-related; it doesn't matter whether we attempt those checks, they'll do nothing. Finally, in case of btrfs_mount() and nfs_fs_mount(), doing MAC is pointless - either the caller will do it, or the flags are such that we wouldn't have done it either. In other words, the one and only case when we want that check done is when we are called from do_new_mount(), and there we want it unconditionally. So let's simply move it there. The superblock is still locked, so nobody is going to get access to it (via ustat(2), etc.) until we get a chance to apply the checks - we are free to move them to any point up to where we drop ->s_umount (in do_new_mount_fc()).

fs: Improve filesystem freezing handling vfs_check_frozen() tests are racy since the filesystem can be frozen just after the test is performed. Thus in write paths we can end up marking some pages or inodes dirty even though the file system is already frozen. This creates problems with flusher thread hanging on frozen filesystem. Another problem is that exclusion between ->page_mkwrite() and filesystem freezing has been handled by setting page dirty and then verifying s_frozen. This guaranteed that either the freezing code sees the faulted page, writes it, and writeprotects it again or we see s_frozen set and bail out of page fault. This works to protect from page being marked writeable while filesystem freezing is running but has an unpleasant artefact of leaving dirty (although unmodified and writeprotected) pages on frozen filesystem resulting in similar problems with flusher thread as the first problem. This patch aims at providing exclusion between write paths and filesystem freezing. We implement a writer-freeze read-write semaphore in the superblock. Actually, there are three such semaphores because of lock ranking reasons - one for page fault handlers (->page_mkwrite), one for all other writers, and one of internal filesystem purposes (used e.g. to track running transactions). Write paths which should block freezing (e.g. directory operations, ->aio_write(), ->page_mkwrite) hold reader side of the semaphore. Code freezing the filesystem takes the writer side. Only that we don't really want to bounce cachelines of the semaphores between CPUs for each write happening. So we implement the reader side of the semaphore as a per-cpu counter and the writer side is implemented using s_writers.frozen superblock field.

fs: handle freezing from multiple devices Before [1] freezing a filesystems through the block layer only worked for the main block device as the owning superblock of additional block devices could not be found. Any filesystem that made use of multiple block devices would only be freezable via it's main block device. For example, consider xfs over device mapper with /dev/dm-0 as main block device and /dev/dm-1 as external log device. Two freeze requests before [1]: (1) dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-0 on the main block device bdev_freeze(dm-0) -> dm-0->bd_fsfreeze_count++ -> freeze_super(xfs-sb) The owning superblock is found and the filesystem gets frozen. Returns 0. (2) dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-1 on the log device bdev_freeze(dm-1) -> dm-1->bd_fsfreeze_count++ The owning superblock isn't found and only the block device freeze count is incremented. Returns 0. Two freeze requests after [1]: (1') dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-0 on the main block device bdev_freeze(dm-0) -> dm-0->bd_fsfreeze_count++ -> freeze_super(xfs-sb) The owning superblock is found and the filesystem gets frozen. Returns 0. (2') dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-1 on the log device bdev_freeze(dm-0) -> dm-0->bd_fsfreeze_count++ -> freeze_super(xfs-sb) The owning superblock is found and the filesystem gets frozen. Returns -EBUSY. When (2') is called we initiate a freeze from another block device of the same superblock. So we increment the bd_fsfreeze_count for that additional block device. But we now also find the owning superblock for additional block devices and call freeze_super() again which reports -EBUSY. This can be reproduced through xfstests via: mkfs.xfs -f -m crc=1,reflink=1,rmapbt=1, -i sparse=1 -lsize=1g,logdev=/dev/nvme1n1p4 /dev/nvme1n1p3 mkfs.xfs -f -m crc=1,reflink=1,rmapbt=1, -i sparse=1 -lsize=1g,logdev=/dev/nvme1n1p6 /dev/nvme1n1p5 FSTYP=xfs export TEST_DEV=/dev/nvme1n1p3 export TEST_DIR=/mnt/test export TEST_LOGDEV=/dev/nvme1n1p4 export SCRATCH_DEV=/dev/nvme1n1p5 export SCRATCH_MNT=/mnt/scratch export SCRATCH_LOGDEV=/dev/nvme1n1p6 export USE_EXTERNAL=yes sudo ./check generic/311 Current semantics allow two concurrent freezers: one initiated from userspace via FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE and one initiated from the kernel via FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL. If there are multiple concurrent freeze requests from either FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE or FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL -EBUSY is returned. We need to preserve these semantics because as they are uapi via FIFREEZE and FITHAW ioctl()s. IOW, freezes don't nest for FIFREEZE and FITHAW. Other kernels consumers rely on non-nesting freezes as well. With freezes initiated from the block layer freezes need to nest if the same superblock is frozen via multiple devices. So we need to start counting the number of freeze requests. If FREEZE_MAY_NEST is passed alongside FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL or FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE we allow the caller to nest freeze calls. To accommodate the old semantics we split the freeze counter into two counting kernel initiated and userspace initiated freezes separately. We can then also stop recording FREEZE_HOLDER_* in struct sb_writers. We also simplify freezing by making all concurrent freezers share a single active superblock reference count instead of having separate references for kernel and userspace. I don't see why we would need two active reference counts. Neither FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL nor FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE can put the active reference as long as they are concurrent freezers anwyay. That was already true before we allowed nesting freezes. Survives various fstests runs with different options including the reproducer, online scrub, and online repair, fsfreze, and so on. Also survives blktests.

super: add filesystem freezing helpers for suspend and hibernate Allow the power subsystem to support filesystem freeze for suspend and hibernate. For some kernel subsystems it is paramount that they are guaranteed that they are the owner of the freeze to avoid any risk of deadlocks. This is the case for the power subsystem. Enable it to recognize whether it did actually freeze the filesystem. If userspace has 10 filesystems and suspend/hibernate manges to freeze 5 and then fails on the 6th for whatever odd reason (current or future) then power needs to undo the freeze of the first 5 filesystems. It can't just walk the list again because while it's unlikely that a new filesystem got added in the meantime it still cannot tell which filesystems the power subsystem actually managed to get a freeze reference count on that needs to be dropped during thaw. There's various ways out of this ugliness. For example, record the filesystems the power subsystem managed to freeze on a temporary list in the callbacks and then walk that list backwards during thaw to undo the freezing or make sure that the power subsystem just actually exclusively freezes things it can freeze and marking such filesystems as being owned by power for the duration of the suspend or resume cycle. I opted for the latter as that seemed the clean thing to do even if it means more code changes. If hibernation races with filesystem freezing (e.g. DM reconfiguration), then hibernation need not freeze a filesystem because it's already frozen but userspace may thaw the filesystem before hibernation actually happens. If the race happens the other way around, DM reconfiguration may unexpectedly fail with EBUSY. So allow FREEZE_EXCL to nest with other holders. An exclusive freezer cannot be undone by any of the other concurrent freezers.

For example, consider xfs over device mapper with /dev/dm-0 as main block device and /dev/dm-1 as external log device. Two freeze requests before [1]: (1) dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-0 on the main block device bdev_freeze(dm-0) -> dm-0->bd_fsfreeze_count++ -> freeze_super(xfs-sb) The owning superblock is found and the filesystem gets frozen. Returns 0. (2) dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-1 on the log device bdev_freeze(dm-1) -> dm-1->bd_fsfreeze_count++ The owning superblock isn't found and only the block device freeze count is incremented. Returns 0. Two freeze requests after [1]: (1') dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-0 on the main block device bdev_freeze(dm-0) -> dm-0->bd_fsfreeze_count++ -> freeze_super(xfs-sb) The owning superblock is found and the filesystem gets frozen. Returns 0. (2') dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-1 on the log device bdev_freeze(dm-0) -> dm-0->bd_fsfreeze_count++ -> freeze_super(xfs-sb) The owning superblock is found and the filesystem gets frozen. Returns -EBUSY. When (2') is called we initiate a freeze from another block device of the same superblock. So we increment the bd_fsfreeze_count for that additional block device. But we now also find the owning superblock for additional block devices and call freeze_super() again which reports -EBUSY. This can be reproduced through xfstests via: mkfs.xfs -f -m crc=1,reflink=1,rmapbt=1, -i sparse=1 -lsize=1g,logdev=/dev/nvme1n1p4 /dev/nvme1n1p3 mkfs.xfs -f -m crc=1,reflink=1,rmapbt=1, -i sparse=1 -lsize=1g,logdev=/dev/nvme1n1p6 /dev/nvme1n1p5 FSTYP=xfs export TEST_DEV=/dev/nvme1n1p3 export TEST_DIR=/mnt/test export TEST_LOGDEV=/dev/nvme1n1p4 export SCRATCH_DEV=/dev/nvme1n1p5 export SCRATCH_MNT=/mnt/scratch export SCRATCH_LOGDEV=/dev/nvme1n1p6 export USE_EXTERNAL=yes sudo ./check generic/311 Current semantics allow two concurrent freezers: one initiated from userspace via FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE and one initiated from the kernel via FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL. If there are multiple concurrent freeze requests from either FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE or FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL -EBUSY is returned. We need to preserve these semantics because as they are uapi via FIFREEZE and FITHAW ioctl()s. IOW, freezes don't nest for FIFREEZE and FITHAW. Other kernels consumers rely on non-nesting freezes as well. With freezes initiated from the block layer freezes need to nest if the same superblock is frozen via multiple devices. So we need to start counting the number of freeze requests. If FREEZE_MAY_NEST is passed alongside FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL or FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE we allow the caller to nest freeze calls. To accommodate the old semantics we split the freeze counter into two counting kernel initiated and userspace initiated freezes separately. We can then also stop recording FREEZE_HOLDER_* in struct sb_writers. We also simplify freezing by making all concurrent freezers share a single active superblock reference count instead of having separate references for kernel and userspace. I don't see why we would need two active reference counts. Neither FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL nor FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE can put the active reference as long as they are concurrent freezers anwyay. That was already true before we allowed nesting freezes. Survives various fstests runs with different options including the reproducer, online scrub, and online repair, fsfreze, and so on. Also survives blktests.

super: add filesystem freezing helpers for suspend and hibernate Allow the power subsystem to support filesystem freeze for suspend and hibernate. For some kernel subsystems it is paramount that they are guaranteed that they are the owner of the freeze to avoid any risk of deadlocks. This is the case for the power subsystem. Enable it to recognize whether it did actually freeze the filesystem. If userspace has 10 filesystems and suspend/hibernate manges to freeze 5 and then fails on the 6th for whatever odd reason (current or future) then power needs to undo the freeze of the first 5 filesystems. It can't just walk the list again because while it's unlikely that a new filesystem got added in the meantime it still cannot tell which filesystems the power subsystem actually managed to get a freeze reference count on that needs to be dropped during thaw. There's various ways out of this ugliness. For example, record the filesystems the power subsystem managed to freeze on a temporary list in the callbacks and then walk that list backwards during thaw to undo the freezing or make sure that the power subsystem just actually exclusively freezes things it can freeze and marking such filesystems as being owned by power for the duration of the suspend or resume cycle. I opted for the latter as that seemed the clean thing to do even if it means more code changes. If hibernation races with filesystem freezing (e.g. DM reconfiguration), then hibernation need not freeze a filesystem because it's already frozen but userspace may thaw the filesystem before hibernation actually happens. If the race happens the other way around, DM reconfiguration may unexpectedly fail with EBUSY. So allow FREEZE_EXCL to nest with other holders. An exclusive freezer cannot be undone by any of the other concurrent freezers.

fs: Improve filesystem freezing handling vfs_check_frozen() tests are racy since the filesystem can be frozen just after the test is performed. Thus in write paths we can end up marking some pages or inodes dirty even though the file system is already frozen. This creates problems with flusher thread hanging on frozen filesystem. Another problem is that exclusion between ->page_mkwrite() and filesystem freezing has been handled by setting page dirty and then verifying s_frozen. This guaranteed that either the freezing code sees the faulted page, writes it, and writeprotects it again or we see s_frozen set and bail out of page fault. This works to protect from page being marked writeable while filesystem freezing is running but has an unpleasant artefact of leaving dirty (although unmodified and writeprotected) pages on frozen filesystem resulting in similar problems with flusher thread as the first problem. This patch aims at providing exclusion between write paths and filesystem freezing. We implement a writer-freeze read-write semaphore in the superblock. Actually, there are three such semaphores because of lock ranking reasons - one for page fault handlers (->page_mkwrite), one for all other writers, and one of internal filesystem purposes (used e.g. to track running transactions). Write paths which should block freezing (e.g. directory operations, ->aio_write(), ->page_mkwrite) hold reader side of the semaphore. Code freezing the filesystem takes the writer side. Only that we don't really want to bounce cachelines of the semaphores between CPUs for each write happening. So we implement the reader side of the semaphore as a per-cpu counter and the writer side is implemented using s_writers.frozen superblock field.

If there are multiple concurrent freeze requests from either FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE or FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL -EBUSY is returned. We need to preserve these semantics because as they are uapi via FIFREEZE and FITHAW ioctl()s. IOW, freezes don't nest for FIFREEZE and FITHAW. Other kernels consumers rely on non-nesting freezes as well. With freezes initiated from the block layer freezes need to nest if the same superblock is frozen via multiple devices. So we need to start counting the number of freeze requests. If FREEZE_MAY_NEST is passed alongside FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL or FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE we allow the caller to nest freeze calls. To accommodate the old semantics we split the freeze counter into two counting kernel initiated and userspace initiated freezes separately. We can then also stop recording FREEZE_HOLDER_* in struct sb_writers. We also simplify freezing by making all concurrent freezers share a single active superblock reference count instead of having separate references for kernel and userspace.

fs: Improve filesystem freezing handling vfs_check_frozen() tests are racy since the filesystem can be frozen just after the test is performed. Thus in write paths we can end up marking some pages or inodes dirty even though the file system is already frozen. This creates problems with flusher thread hanging on frozen filesystem. Another problem is that exclusion between ->page_mkwrite() and filesystem freezing has been handled by setting page dirty and then verifying s_frozen. This guaranteed that either the freezing code sees the faulted page, writes it, and writeprotects it again or we see s_frozen set and bail out of page fault. This works to protect from page being marked writeable while filesystem freezing is running but has an unpleasant artefact of leaving dirty (although unmodified and writeprotected) pages on frozen filesystem resulting in similar problems with flusher thread as the first problem. This patch aims at providing exclusion between write paths and filesystem freezing. We implement a writer-freeze read-write semaphore in the superblock. Actually, there are three such semaphores because of lock ranking reasons - one for page fault handlers (->page_mkwrite), one for all other writers, and one of internal filesystem purposes (used e.g. to track running transactions). Write paths which should block freezing (e.g. directory operations, ->aio_write(), ->page_mkwrite) hold reader side of the semaphore. Code freezing the filesystem takes the writer side. Only that we don't really want to bounce cachelines of the semaphores between CPUs for each write happening. So we implement the reader side of the semaphore as a per-cpu counter and the writer side is implemented using s_writers.frozen superblock field.

super: add filesystem freezing helpers for suspend and hibernate Allow the power subsystem to support filesystem freeze for suspend and hibernate. For some kernel subsystems it is paramount that they are guaranteed that they are the owner of the freeze to avoid any risk of deadlocks. This is the case for the power subsystem. Enable it to recognize whether it did actually freeze the filesystem. If userspace has 10 filesystems and suspend/hibernate manges to freeze 5 and then fails on the 6th for whatever odd reason (current or future) then power needs to undo the freeze of the first 5 filesystems. It can't just walk the list again because while it's unlikely that a new filesystem got added in the meantime it still cannot tell which filesystems the power subsystem actually managed to get a freeze reference count on that needs to be dropped during thaw. There's various ways out of this ugliness. For example, record the filesystems the power subsystem managed to freeze on a temporary list in the callbacks and then walk that list backwards during thaw to undo the freezing or make sure that the power subsystem just actually exclusively freezes things it can freeze and marking such filesystems as being owned by power for the duration of the suspend or resume cycle. I opted for the latter as that seemed the clean thing to do even if it means more code changes. If hibernation races with filesystem freezing (e.g. DM reconfiguration), then hibernation need not freeze a filesystem because it's already frozen but userspace may thaw the filesystem before hibernation actually happens. If the race happens the other way around, DM reconfiguration may unexpectedly fail with EBUSY. So allow FREEZE_EXCL to nest with other holders. An exclusive freezer cannot be undone by any of the other concurrent freezers.

This can be reproduced through xfstests via: mkfs.xfs -f -m crc=1,reflink=1,rmapbt=1, -i sparse=1 -lsize=1g,logdev=/dev/nvme1n1p4 /dev/nvme1n1p3 mkfs.xfs -f -m crc=1,reflink=1,rmapbt=1, -i sparse=1 -lsize=1g,logdev=/dev/nvme1n1p6 /dev/nvme1n1p5 FSTYP=xfs export TEST_DEV=/dev/nvme1n1p3 export TEST_DIR=/mnt/test export TEST_LOGDEV=/dev/nvme1n1p4 export SCRATCH_DEV=/dev/nvme1n1p5 export SCRATCH_MNT=/mnt/scratch export SCRATCH_LOGDEV=/dev/nvme1n1p6 export USE_EXTERNAL=yes sudo ./check generic/311 Current semantics allow two concurrent freezers: one initiated from userspace via FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE and one initiated from the kernel via FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL. If there are multiple concurrent freeze requests from either FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE or FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL -EBUSY is returned. We need to preserve these semantics because as they are uapi via FIFREEZE and FITHAW ioctl()s. IOW, freezes don't nest for FIFREEZE and FITHAW. Other kernels consumers rely on non-nesting freezes as well. With freezes initiated from the block layer freezes need to nest if the same superblock is frozen via multiple devices. So we need to start counting the number of freeze requests. If FREEZE_MAY_NEST is passed alongside FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL or FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE we allow the caller to nest freeze calls. To accommodate the old semantics we split the freeze counter into two counting kernel initiated and userspace initiated freezes separately. We can then also stop recording FREEZE_HOLDER_* in struct sb_writers. We also simplify freezing by making all concurrent freezers share a single active superblock reference count instead of having separate references for kernel and userspace. I don't see why we would need two active reference counts. Neither FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL nor FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE can put the active reference as long as they are concurrent freezers anwyay. That was already true before we allowed nesting freezes. Survives various fstests runs with different options including the reproducer, online scrub, and online repair, fsfreze, and so on. Also survives blktests.

super: add filesystem freezing helpers for suspend and hibernate Allow the power subsystem to support filesystem freeze for suspend and hibernate. For some kernel subsystems it is paramount that they are guaranteed that they are the owner of the freeze to avoid any risk of deadlocks. This is the case for the power subsystem. Enable it to recognize whether it did actually freeze the filesystem. If userspace has 10 filesystems and suspend/hibernate manges to freeze 5 and then fails on the 6th for whatever odd reason (current or future) then power needs to undo the freeze of the first 5 filesystems. It can't just walk the list again because while it's unlikely that a new filesystem got added in the meantime it still cannot tell which filesystems the power subsystem actually managed to get a freeze reference count on that needs to be dropped during thaw. There's various ways out of this ugliness. For example, record the filesystems the power subsystem managed to freeze on a temporary list in the callbacks and then walk that list backwards during thaw to undo the freezing or make sure that the power subsystem just actually exclusively freezes things it can freeze and marking such filesystems as being owned by power for the duration of the suspend or resume cycle. I opted for the latter as that seemed the clean thing to do even if it means more code changes. If hibernation races with filesystem freezing (e.g. DM reconfiguration), then hibernation need not freeze a filesystem because it's already frozen but userspace may thaw the filesystem before hibernation actually happens. If the race happens the other way around, DM reconfiguration may unexpectedly fail with EBUSY. So allow FREEZE_EXCL to nest with other holders. An exclusive freezer cannot be undone by any of the other concurrent freezers.

fs: Improve filesystem freezing handling vfs_check_frozen() tests are racy since the filesystem can be frozen just after the test is performed. Thus in write paths we can end up marking some pages or inodes dirty even though the file system is already frozen. This creates problems with flusher thread hanging on frozen filesystem. Another problem is that exclusion between ->page_mkwrite() and filesystem freezing has been handled by setting page dirty and then verifying s_frozen. This guaranteed that either the freezing code sees the faulted page, writes it, and writeprotects it again or we see s_frozen set and bail out of page fault. This works to protect from page being marked writeable while filesystem freezing is running but has an unpleasant artefact of leaving dirty (although unmodified and writeprotected) pages on frozen filesystem resulting in similar problems with flusher thread as the first problem. This patch aims at providing exclusion between write paths and filesystem freezing. We implement a writer-freeze read-write semaphore in the superblock. Actually, there are three such semaphores because of lock ranking reasons - one for page fault handlers (->page_mkwrite), one for all other writers, and one of internal filesystem purposes (used e.g. to track running transactions). Write paths which should block freezing (e.g. directory operations, ->aio_write(), ->page_mkwrite) hold reader side of the semaphore. Code freezing the filesystem takes the writer side. Only that we don't really want to bounce cachelines of the semaphores between CPUs for each write happening.

fs: handle freezing from multiple devices Before [1] freezing a filesystems through the block layer only worked for the main block device as the owning superblock of additional block devices could not be found. Any filesystem that made use of multiple block devices would only be freezable via it's main block device. For example, consider xfs over device mapper with /dev/dm-0 as main block device and /dev/dm-1 as external log device. Two freeze requests before [1]: (1) dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-0 on the main block device bdev_freeze(dm-0) -> dm-0->bd_fsfreeze_count++ -> freeze_super(xfs-sb) The owning superblock is found and the filesystem gets frozen. Returns 0. (2) dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-1 on the log device bdev_freeze(dm-1) -> dm-1->bd_fsfreeze_count++ The owning superblock isn't found and only the block device freeze count is incremented. Returns 0. Two freeze requests after [1]: (1') dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-0 on the main block device bdev_freeze(dm-0) -> dm-0->bd_fsfreeze_count++ -> freeze_super(xfs-sb) The owning superblock is found and the filesystem gets frozen. Returns 0. (2') dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-1 on the log device bdev_freeze(dm-0) -> dm-0->bd_fsfreeze_count++ -> freeze_super(xfs-sb) The owning superblock is found and the filesystem gets frozen. Returns -EBUSY. When (2') is called we initiate a freeze from another block device of the same superblock. So we increment the bd_fsfreeze_count for that additional block device. But we now also find the owning superblock for additional block devices and call freeze_super() again which reports -EBUSY. This can be reproduced through xfstests via: mkfs.xfs -f -m crc=1,reflink=1,rmapbt=1, -i sparse=1 -lsize=1g,logdev=/dev/nvme1n1p4 /dev/nvme1n1p3 mkfs.xfs -f -m crc=1,reflink=1,rmapbt=1, -i sparse=1 -lsize=1g,logdev=/dev/nvme1n1p6 /dev/nvme1n1p5 FSTYP=xfs export TEST_DEV=/dev/nvme1n1p3 export TEST_DIR=/mnt/test export TEST_LOGDEV=/dev/nvme1n1p4 export SCRATCH_DEV=/dev/nvme1n1p5 export SCRATCH_MNT=/mnt/scratch export SCRATCH_LOGDEV=/dev/nvme1n1p6 export USE_EXTERNAL=yes sudo ./check generic/311 Current semantics allow two concurrent freezers: one initiated from userspace via FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE and one initiated from the kernel via FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL.

fs: handle freezing from multiple devices Before [1] freezing a filesystems through the block layer only worked for the main block device as the owning superblock of additional block devices could not be found. Any filesystem that made use of multiple block devices would only be freezable via it's main block device. For example, consider xfs over device mapper with /dev/dm-0 as main block device and /dev/dm-1 as external log device. Two freeze requests before [1]: (1) dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-0 on the main block device bdev_freeze(dm-0) -> dm-0->bd_fsfreeze_count++ -> freeze_super(xfs-sb) The owning superblock is found and the filesystem gets frozen. Returns 0. (2) dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-1 on the log device bdev_freeze(dm-1) -> dm-1->bd_fsfreeze_count++ The owning superblock isn't found and only the block device freeze count is incremented. Returns 0. Two freeze requests after [1]: (1') dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-0 on the main block device bdev_freeze(dm-0) -> dm-0->bd_fsfreeze_count++ -> freeze_super(xfs-sb) The owning superblock is found and the filesystem gets frozen. Returns 0. (2') dmsetup suspend /dev/dm-1 on the log device bdev_freeze(dm-0) -> dm-0->bd_fsfreeze_count++ -> freeze_super(xfs-sb) The owning superblock is found and the filesystem gets frozen. Returns -EBUSY. When (2') is called we initiate a freeze from another block device of the same superblock. So we increment the bd_fsfreeze_count for that additional block device. But we now also find the owning superblock for additional block devices and call freeze_super() again which reports -EBUSY. This can be reproduced through xfstests via: mkfs.xfs -f -m crc=1,reflink=1,rmapbt=1, -i sparse=1 -lsize=1g,logdev=/dev/nvme1n1p4 /dev/nvme1n1p3 mkfs.xfs -f -m crc=1,reflink=1,rmapbt=1, -i sparse=1 -lsize=1g,logdev=/dev/nvme1n1p6 /dev/nvme1n1p5 FSTYP=xfs export TEST_DEV=/dev/nvme1n1p3 export TEST_DIR=/mnt/test export TEST_LOGDEV=/dev/nvme1n1p4 export SCRATCH_DEV=/dev/nvme1n1p5 export SCRATCH_MNT=/mnt/scratch export SCRATCH_LOGDEV=/dev/nvme1n1p6 export USE_EXTERNAL=yes sudo ./check generic/311 Current semantics allow two concurrent freezers: one initiated from userspace via FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE and one initiated from the kernel via FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL.

So we need to start counting the number of freeze requests. If FREEZE_MAY_NEST is passed alongside FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL or FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE we allow the caller to nest freeze calls. To accommodate the old semantics we split the freeze counter into two counting kernel initiated and userspace initiated freezes separately. We can then also stop recording FREEZE_HOLDER_* in struct sb_writers.

The trivial microbenchmark that writes to a tmpfs file in a loop runs 12% faster if we change this code to rely on RCU and kill the memory barriers. - This code doesn't look simple. It would be better to rely on the generic locking code. According to Dave, this change adds the same performance improvement. Note: with this change both freeze_super() and thaw_super() will do synchronize_sched_expedited() 3 times. This is just ugly.

fs: Improve filesystem freezing handling vfs_check_frozen() tests are racy since the filesystem can be frozen just after the test is performed. Thus in write paths we can end up marking some pages or inodes dirty even though the file system is already frozen. This creates problems with flusher thread hanging on frozen filesystem. Another problem is that exclusion between ->page_mkwrite() and filesystem freezing has been handled by setting page dirty and then verifying s_frozen. This guaranteed that either the freezing code sees the faulted page, writes it, and writeprotects it again or we see s_frozen set and bail out of page fault. This works to protect from page being marked writeable while filesystem freezing is running but has an unpleasant artefact of leaving dirty (although unmodified and writeprotected) pages on frozen filesystem resulting in similar problems with flusher thread as the first problem. This patch aims at providing exclusion between write paths and filesystem freezing. We implement a writer-freeze read-write semaphore in the superblock. Actually, there are three such semaphores because of lock ranking reasons - one for page fault handlers (->page_mkwrite), one for all other writers, and one of internal filesystem purposes (used e.g. to track running transactions). Write paths which should block freezing (e.g. directory operations, ->aio_write(), ->page_mkwrite) hold reader side of the semaphore. Code freezing the filesystem takes the writer side. Only that we don't really want to bounce cachelines of the semaphores between CPUs for each write happening. So we implement the reader side of the semaphore as a per-cpu counter and the writer side is implemented using s_writers.frozen superblock field.

This can be reproduced through xfstests via: mkfs.xfs -f -m crc=1,reflink=1,rmapbt=1, -i sparse=1 -lsize=1g,logdev=/dev/nvme1n1p4 /dev/nvme1n1p3 mkfs.xfs -f -m crc=1,reflink=1,rmapbt=1, -i sparse=1 -lsize=1g,logdev=/dev/nvme1n1p6 /dev/nvme1n1p5 FSTYP=xfs export TEST_DEV=/dev/nvme1n1p3 export TEST_DIR=/mnt/test export TEST_LOGDEV=/dev/nvme1n1p4 export SCRATCH_DEV=/dev/nvme1n1p5 export SCRATCH_MNT=/mnt/scratch export SCRATCH_LOGDEV=/dev/nvme1n1p6 export USE_EXTERNAL=yes sudo ./check generic/311 Current semantics allow two concurrent freezers: one initiated from userspace via FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE and one initiated from the kernel via FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL. If there are multiple concurrent freeze requests from either FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE or FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL -EBUSY is returned. We need to preserve these semantics because as they are uapi via FIFREEZE and FITHAW ioctl()s. IOW, freezes don't nest for FIFREEZE and FITHAW. Other kernels consumers rely on non-nesting freezes as well. With freezes initiated from the block layer freezes need to nest if the same superblock is frozen via multiple devices. So we need to start counting the number of freeze requests. If FREEZE_MAY_NEST is passed alongside FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL or FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE we allow the caller to nest freeze calls. To accommodate the old semantics we split the freeze counter into two counting kernel initiated and userspace initiated freezes separately. We can then also stop recording FREEZE_HOLDER_* in struct sb_writers. We also simplify freezing by making all concurrent freezers share a single active superblock reference count instead of having separate references for kernel and userspace. I don't see why we would need two active reference counts. Neither FREEZE_HOLDER_KERNEL nor FREEZE_HOLDER_USERSPACE can put the active reference as long as they are concurrent freezers anwyay. That was already true before we allowed nesting freezes. Survives various fstests runs with different options including the reproducer, online scrub, and online repair, fsfreze, and so on. Also survives blktests.

super: add filesystem freezing helpers for suspend and hibernate Allow the power subsystem to support filesystem freeze for suspend and hibernate. For some kernel subsystems it is paramount that they are guaranteed that they are the owner of the freeze to avoid any risk of deadlocks. This is the case for the power subsystem. Enable it to recognize whether it did actually freeze the filesystem. If userspace has 10 filesystems and suspend/hibernate manges to freeze 5 and then fails on the 6th for whatever odd reason (current or future) then power needs to undo the freeze of the first 5 filesystems. It can't just walk the list again because while it's unlikely that a new filesystem got added in the meantime it still cannot tell which filesystems the power subsystem actually managed to get a freeze reference count on that needs to be dropped during thaw. There's various ways out of this ugliness. For example, record the filesystems the power subsystem managed to freeze on a temporary list in the callbacks and then walk that list backwards during thaw to undo the freezing or make sure that the power subsystem just actually exclusively freezes things it can freeze and marking such filesystems as being owned by power for the duration of the suspend or resume cycle. I opted for the latter as that seemed the clean thing to do even if it means more code changes. If hibernation races with filesystem freezing (e.g. DM reconfiguration), then hibernation need not freeze a filesystem because it's already frozen but userspace may thaw the filesystem before hibernation actually happens. If the race happens the other way around, DM reconfiguration may unexpectedly fail with EBUSY. So allow FREEZE_EXCL to nest with other holders. An exclusive freezer cannot be undone by any of the other concurrent freezers.
