      fs: make remaining filesystems use .rename2 · 1cd66c93
      Miklos Szeredi authored
      
      This is trivial to do:
      
       - add flags argument to foo_rename()
       - check if flags is zero
       - assign foo_rename() to .rename2 instead of .rename
      
      This doesn't mean it's impossible to support RENAME_NOREPLACE for these
      filesystems, but it is not trivial, like for local filesystems.
      RENAME_NOREPLACE must guarantee atomicity (i.e. it shouldn't be possible
      for a file to be created on one host while it is overwritten by rename on
      another host).
      
      Filesystems converted:
      
      9p, afs, ceph, coda, ecryptfs, kernfs, lustre, ncpfs, nfs, ocfs2, orangefs.
      
      After this, we can get rid of the duplicate interfaces for rename.

      kernfs: make kernfs_path*() behave in the style of strlcpy() · 3abb1d90
      Tejun Heo authored
      
      kernfs_path*() functions always return the length of the full path but
      the path content is undefined if the length is larger than the
      provided buffer.  This makes its behavior different from strlcpy() and
      requires error handling in all its users even when they don't care
      about truncation.  In addition, the implementation can actully be
      simplified by making it behave properly in strlcpy() style.
      
      * Update kernfs_path_from_node_locked() to always fill up the buffer
        with path.  If the buffer is not large enough, the output is
        truncated and terminated.
      
      * kernfs_path() no longer needs error handling.  Make it a simple
        inline wrapper around kernfs_path_from_node().
      
      * sysfs_warn_dup()'s use of kernfs_path() doesn't need error handling.
        Updated accordingly.
      
      * cgroup_path()'s use of kernfs_path() updated to retain the old
        behavior.

      vfs: make the string hashes salt the hash · 8387ff25
      Linus Torvalds authored
      
      We always mixed in the parent pointer into the dentry name hash, but we
      did it late at lookup time.  It turns out that we can simplify that
      lookup-time action by salting the hash with the parent pointer early
      instead of late.
      
      A few other users of our string hashes also wanted to mix in their own
      pointers into the hash, and those are updated to use the same mechanism.
      
      Hash users that don't have any particular initial salt can just use the
      NULL pointer as a no-salt.

      kernfs_path_from_node_locked: don't overwrite nlen · e99ed4de
      Serge Hallyn authored
      
      We've calculated @len to be the bytes we need for '/..' entries from
      @kn_from to the common ancestor, and calculated @nlen to be the extra
      bytes we need to get from the common ancestor to @kn_to.  We use them
      as such at the end.  But in the loop copying the actual entries, we
      overwrite @nlen.  Use a temporary variable for that instead.
      
      Without this, the return length, when the buffer is large enough, is
      wrong.  (When the buffer is NULL or too small, the returned value is
      correct. The buffer contents are also correct.)
      
      Interestingly, no callers of this function are affected by this as of
      yet.  However the upcoming cgroup_show_path() will be.

      fs: kernfs: Replace CURRENT_TIME by current_fs_time() · 3a3a5fec

      This is in preparation for the series that transitions

      them y2038 safe.
      
      CURRENT_TIME macro will be deleted before merging the
      aforementioned series.
      
      Use current_fs_time() instead of CURRENT_TIME for inode
      timestamps.
      
      struct kernfs_node is associated with a sysfs file/ directory.
      Truncate the values to appropriate time granularity when
      writing to inode timestamps of the files.
      
      ktime_get_real_ts() is used to obtain times for
      struct kernfs_iattrs. Since these times are later assigned to
      inode times using timespec_truncate() for all filesystem based
      operations, we can save the supers list traversal time here by
      using ktime_get_real_ts() directly.

      Revert "kernfs: do not account ino_ida allocations to memcg" · b2a209ff
      Vladimir Davydov authored
      Currently, all kmem allocations (namely every kmem_cache_alloc, kmalloc,
      alloc_kmem_pages call) are accounted to memory cgroup automatically.
      Callers have to explicitly opt out if they don't want/need accounting
      for some reason.  Such a design decision leads to several problems:
      
       - kmalloc users are highly sensitive to failures, many of them
         implicitly rely on the fact that kmalloc never fails, while memcg
         makes failures quite plausible.
      
       - A lot of objects are shared among different containers by design.
         Accounting such objects to one of containers is just unfair.
         Moreover, it might lead to pinning a dead memcg along with its kmem
         caches, which aren't tiny, which might result in noticeable increase
         in memory consumption for no apparent reason in the long run.
      
       - There are tons of short-lived objects. Accounting them to memcg will
         only result in slight noise and won't change the overall picture, but
         we still have to pay accounting overhead.
      
      For more info, see
      
       - http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20151105144002.GB15111%40dhcp22.suse.cz
       - http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20151106090555.GK29259@esperanza
      
      
      
      Therefore this patchset switches to the white list policy.  Now kmalloc
      users have to explicitly opt in by passing __GFP_ACCOUNT flag.
      
      Currently, the list of accounted objects is quite limited and only
      includes those allocations that (1) are known to be easily triggered
      from userspace and (2) can fail gracefully (for the full list see patch
      no.  6) and it still misses many object types.  However, accounting only
      those objects should be a satisfactory approximation of the behavior we
      used to have for most sane workloads.
      
      This patch (of 6):
      
      Revert 499611ed ("kernfs: do not account ino_ida allocations
      to memcg").
      
      Black-list kmem accounting policy (aka __GFP_NOACCOUNT) turned out to be
      fragile and difficult to maintain, because there seem to be many more
      allocations that should not be accounted than those that should be.
      Besides, false accounting an allocation might result in much worse
      consequences than not accounting at all, namely increased memory
      consumption due to pinned dead kmem caches.
      
      So it was decided to switch to the white-list policy.  This patch reverts
      bits introducing the black-list policy.  The white-list policy will be
      introduced later in the series.

      kernfs: do not account ino_ida allocations to memcg · 499611ed
      Vladimir Davydov authored
      
      root->ino_ida is used for kernfs inode number allocations. Since IDA has
      a layered structure, different IDs can reside on the same layer, which
      is currently accounted to some memory cgroup. The problem is that each
      kmem cache of a memory cgroup has its own directory on sysfs (under
      /sys/fs/kernel/<cache-name>/cgroup). If the inode number of such a
      directory or any file in it gets allocated from a layer accounted to the
      cgroup which the cache is created for, the cgroup will get pinned for
      good, because one has to free all kmem allocations accounted to a cgroup
      in order to release it and destroy all its kmem caches. That said we
      must not account layers of ino_ida to any memory cgroup.
      
      Since per net init operations may create new sysfs entries directly
      (e.g. lo device) or indirectly (nf_conntrack creates a new kmem cache
      per each namespace, which, in turn, creates new sysfs entries), an easy
      way to reproduce this issue is by creating network namespace(s) from
      inside a kmem-active memory cgroup.

      cgroup: remove cgroup->name · e61734c5
      Tejun Heo authored
      
      cgroup->name handling became quite complicated over time involving
      dedicated struct cgroup_name for RCU protection.  Now that cgroup is
      on kernfs, we can drop all of it and simply use kernfs_name/path() and
      friends.  Replace cgroup->name and all related code with kernfs
      name/path constructs.
      
      * Reimplement cgroup_name() and cgroup_path() as thin wrappers on top
        of kernfs counterparts, which involves semantic changes.
        pr_cont_cgroup_name() and pr_cont_cgroup_path() added.
      
      * cgroup->name handling dropped from cgroup_rename().
      
      * All users of cgroup_name/path() updated to the new semantics.  Users
        which were formatting the string just to printk them are converted
        to use pr_cont_cgroup_name/path() instead, which simplifies things
        quite a bit.  As cgroup_name() no longer requires RCU read lock
        around it, RCU lockings which were protecting only cgroup_name() are
        removed.
      
      v2: Comment above oom_info_lock updated as suggested by Michal.
      
      v3: dummy_top doesn't have a kn associated and
          pr_cont_cgroup_name/path() ended up calling the matching kernfs
          functions with NULL kn leading to oops.  Test for NULL kn and
          print "/" if so.  This issue was reported by Fengguang Wu.
      
      v4: Rebased on top of 0ab02ca8 ("cgroup: protect modifications to

      kernfs: implement kernfs_get_parent(), kernfs_name/path() and friends · 3eef34ad
      Tejun Heo authored
      
      kernfs_node->parent and ->name are currently marked as "published"
      indicating that kernfs users may access them directly; however, those
      fields may get updated by kernfs_rename[_ns]() and unrestricted access
      may lead to erroneous values or oops.
      
      Protect ->parent and ->name updates with a irq-safe spinlock
      kernfs_rename_lock and implement the following accessors for these
      fields.
      
      * kernfs_name()		- format the node's name into the specified buffer
      * kernfs_path()		- format the node's path into the specified buffer
      * pr_cont_kernfs_name()	- pr_cont a node's name (doesn't need buffer)
      * pr_cont_kernfs_path()	- pr_cont a node's path (doesn't need buffer)
      * kernfs_get_parent()	- pin and return a node's parent
      
      All can be called under any context.  The recursive sysfs_pathname()
      in fs/sysfs/dir.c is replaced with kernfs_path() and
      sysfs_rename_dir_ns() is updated to use kernfs_get_parent() instead of
      dereferencing parent directly.

      kernfs: allow nodes to be created in the deactivated state · d35258ef
      Tejun Heo authored
      
      Currently, kernfs_nodes are made visible to userland on creation,
      which makes it difficult for kernfs users to atomically succeed or
      fail creation of multiple nodes.  In addition, if something fails
      after creating some nodes, the created nodes might already be in use
      and their active refs need to be drained for removal, which has the
      potential to introduce tricky reverse locking dependency on active_ref
      depending on how the error path is synchronized.
      
      This patch introduces per-root flag KERNFS_ROOT_CREATE_DEACTIVATED.
      If set, all nodes under the root are created in the deactivated state
      and stay invisible to userland until explicitly enabled by the new
      kernfs_activate() API.  Also, nodes which have never been activated
      are guaranteed to bypass draining on removal thus allowing error paths
      to not worry about lockding dependency on active_ref draining.

      kernfs: add missing kernfs_active() checks in directory operations · b9c9dad0
      Tejun Heo authored
      
      kernfs_iop_lookup(), kernfs_dir_pos() and kernfs_dir_next_pos() were
      missing kernfs_active() tests before using the found kernfs_node.  As
      deactivated state is currently visible only while a node is being
      removed, this doesn't pose an actual problem.  e.g. lookup succeeding
      on a deactivated node doesn't harm anything as the eventual file
      operations are gonna fail and those failures are indistinguishible
      from the cases in which the lookups had happened before the node was
      deactivated.
      
      However, we're gonna allow new nodes to be created deactivated and
      then activated explicitly by the kernfs user when it sees fit.  This
      is to support atomically making multiple nodes visible to userland and
      thus those nodes must not be visible to userland before activated.
      
      Let's plug the lookup and readdir holes so that deactivated nodes are
      invisible to userland.
