sysfs: restructure add/remove paths and fix inode update The original add/remove code had the following problems. * parent's timestamps are updated on dentry instantiation. this is incorrect with reclaimable files. * updating parent's timestamps isn't synchronized. * parent nlink update assumes the inode is accessible which won't be true once directory dentries are made reclaimable. This patch restructures add/remove paths to resolve the above problems. Add/removal are done in the following steps. 1. sysfs_addrm_start() : acquire locks including sysfs_mutex and other resources. 2-a. sysfs_add_one() : add new sd. linking the new sd into the children list is caller's responsibility. 2-b. sysfs_remove_one() : remove a sd. unlinking the sd from the children list is caller's responsibility. 3. sysfs_addrm_finish() : release all resources and clean up. Steps 2-a and/or 2-b can be repeated multiple times. Parent's inode is looked up during sysfs_addrm_start(). If available (always at the moment), it's pinned and nlink is updated as sd's are added and removed. Timestamps are updated during finish if any sd has been added or removed. If parent's inode is not available during start, sysfs_mutex ensures that parent inode is not created till add/remove is complete. All the complexity is contained inside the helper functions. Especially, dentry/inode handling is properly hidden from the rest of sysfs which now mostly operate on sysfs_dirents. As an added bonus, codes which use these helpers to add and remove sysfs_dirents are now more structured and simpler.

sysfs: Implement sysfs tagged directory support. The problem. When implementing a network namespace I need to be able to have multiple network devices with the same name. Currently this is a problem for /sys/class/net/*, /sys/devices/virtual/net/*, and potentially a few other directories of the form /sys/ ... /net/*. What this patch does is to add an additional tag field to the sysfs dirent structure. For directories that should show different contents depending on the context such as /sys/class/net/, and /sys/devices/virtual/net/ this tag field is used to specify the context in which those directories should be visible. Effectively this is the same as creating multiple distinct directories with the same name but internally to sysfs the result is nicer. I am calling the concept of a single directory that looks like multiple directories all at the same path in the filesystem tagged directories. For the networking namespace the set of directories whose contents I need to filter with tags can depend on the presence or absence of hotplug hardware or which modules are currently loaded. Which means I need a simple race free way to setup those directories as tagged. To achieve a reace free design all tagged directories are created and managed by sysfs itself. Users of this interface: - define a type in the sysfs_tag_type enumeration. - call sysfs_register_ns_types with the type and it's operations - sysfs_exit_ns when an individual tag is no longer valid - Implement mount_ns() which returns the ns of the calling process so we can attach it to a sysfs superblock. - Implement ktype.namespace() which returns the ns of a syfs kobject. Everything else is left up to sysfs and the driver layer. For the network namespace mount_ns and namespace() are essentially one line functions, and look to remain that. Tags are currently represented a const void * pointers as that is both generic, prevides enough information for equality comparisons, and is trivial to create for current users, as it is just the existing namespace pointer. The work needed in sysfs is more extensive. At each directory or symlink creating I need to check if the directory it is being created in is a tagged directory and if so generate the appropriate tag to place on the sysfs_dirent. Likewise at each symlink or directory removal I need to check if the sysfs directory it is being removed from is a tagged directory and if so figure out which tag goes along with the name I am deleting. Currently only directories which hold kobjects, and symlinks are supported. There is not enough information in the current file attribute interfaces to give us anything to discriminate on which makes it useless, and there are no potential users which makes it an uninteresting problem to solve.
