A performance regression was observed since linux v4.19 with aio test using
fio with iodepth 128 on overlayfs. The queue depth of the device was
always 1 which is unexpected.
After investigation, it was found that commit 16914e6fc7 ("ovl: add
ovl_read_iter()") and commit 2a92e07edc ("ovl: add ovl_write_iter()")
resulted in vfs_iter_{read,write} being called on underlying filesystem,
which always results in syncronous IO.
Implement async IO for stacked reading and writing. This resolves the
performance regresion.
This is implemented by allocating a new kiocb for submitting the AIO
request on the underlying filesystem. When the request is completed, the
new kiocb is freed and the completion callback is called on the original
iocb.

On non-samefs overlay without xino, non pure upper inodes should use a
pseudo_dev assigned to each unique lower fs, but if lower layer is on the
same fs and upper layer, it has no pseudo_dev assigned.
In this overlay layers setup:
- two filesystems, A and B
- upper layer is on A
- lower layer 1 is also on A
- lower layer 2 is on B
Non pure upper overlay inode, whose origin is in layer 1 will have the
st_dev;st_ino values of the real lower inode before copy up and the
st_dev;st_ino values of the real upper inode after copy up.
Fix this inconsitency by assigning a unique pseudo_dev also for upper fs,
that will be used as st_dev value along with the lower inode st_dev for
overlay inodes in the case above.

This fixes ovl_lower_uuid_ok() to correctly detect the corner case:
- two filesystems, A and B, both have null uuid
- upper layer is on A
- lower layer 1 is also on A
- lower layer 2 is on B
In this case, bad_uuid would not have been set for B, because the check
only involved the list of lower fs. Hence we'll try to decode a layer 2
origin on layer 1 and fail.
We check for conflicting (and null) uuid among all lower layers, including
those layers that are on the same fs as the upper layer.

Current copy-up is not efficient for big sparse file,
It's not only slow but also wasting more disk space
when the target lower file has huge hole inside.
This patch tries to recognize file hole and skip it
during copy-up.
Detail logic of hole detection as below:
When we detect next data position is larger than current
position we will skip that hole, otherwise we copy
data in the size of OVL_COPY_UP_CHUNK_SIZE. Actually,
it may not recognize all kind of holes and sometimes
only skips partial of hole area. However, it will be
enough for most of the use cases.
Additionally, this optimization relies on lseek(2)
SEEK_DATA implementation, so for some specific
filesystems which do not support this feature
will behave as before on copy-up.

In ovl_llseek() we use the overlay inode rwsem to protect against
concurrent modifications to real file f_pos, because we copy the overlay
file f_pos to/from the real file f_pos.
This caused a lockdep warning of locking order violation when the
ovl_llseek() operation was called on a lower nested overlay layer while the
upper layer fs sb_writers is held (with patch improving copy-up efficiency
for big sparse file).
Use the internal ovl_inode_lock() instead of the overlay inode rwsem in
those cases. It is meant to be used for protecting against concurrent
changes to overlay inode internal state changes.
The locking order rules are documented to explain this case.

On non-samefs overlay without xino, non pure upper inodes should use a
pseudo_dev assigned to each unique lower fs and pure upper inodes use the
real upper st_dev.
It is fine for an overlay pure upper inode to use the same st_dev;st_ino
values as the real upper inode, because the content of those two different
filesystem objects is always the same.
In this case, however:
- two filesystems, A and B
- upper layer is on A
- lower layer 1 is also on A
- lower layer 2 is on B
Non pure upper overlay inode, whose origin is in layer 1 will have the same
st_dev;st_ino values as the real lower inode. This may result with a false
positive results of 'diff' between the real lower and copied up overlay
inode.
Fix this by using the upper st_dev;st_ino values in this case. This breaks
the property of constant st_dev;st_ino across copy up of this case. This
breakage will be fixed by a later patch.

In-memory and on-wire we only ever pass around pointers to struct
ovl_fh, which encapsulates at offset 3 the on-disk format struct
ovl_fb. struct ovl_fb encapsulates at offset 21 the real file handle.
That makes sure that the real file handle is always 32bit aligned

On-disk format remains the same and store/load are done into
correctly aligned buffer.
New nfs exported file handles are exported with aligned real fid.

In the past, overlayfs required that lower fs have non null uuid in
order to support nfs export and decode copy up origin file handles.
Commit 9df085f3c9 ("ovl: relax requirement for non null uuid of
lower fs") relaxed this requirement for nfs export support, as long
as uuid (even if null) is unique among all lower fs.
However, said commit unintentionally also relaxed the non null uuid
requirement for decoding copy up origin file handles, regardless of
the unique uuid requirement.
Amend this mistake by disabling decoding of copy up origin file handle
from lower fs with a conflicting uuid.
We still encode copy up origin file handles from those fs, because
file handles like those already exist in the wild and because they
might provide useful information in the future.
There is an unhandled corner case described by Miklos this way:
- two filesystems, A and B, both have null uuid
- upper layer is on A
- lower layer 1 is also on A
- lower layer 2 is on B
In this case bad_uuid won't be set for B, because the check only
involves the list of lower fs. Hence we'll try to decode a layer 2
origin on layer 1 and fail.
We will deal with this corner case later.

Most of the callers of lookup_one_len_unlocked() treat negatives are
ERR_PTR(-ENOENT). Provide a helper that would do just that. Note
that a pinned positive dentry remains positive - it's ->d_inode is
stable, etc.; a pinned _negative_ dentry can become positive at any
point as long as you are not holding its parent at least shared.
So using lookup_one_len_unlocked() needs to be careful;
lookup_positive_unlocked() is safer and that's what the callers
end up open-coding anyway.

Once upon a time, commit 2cac0c00a6 ("ovl: get exclusive ownership on
upper/work dirs") in v4.13 added some sanity checks on overlayfs layers.
This change caused a docker regression. The root cause was mount leaks
by docker, which as far as I know, still exist.
To mitigate the regression, commit 85fdee1eef ("ovl: fix regression
caused by exclusive upper/work dir protection") in v4.14 turned the
mount errors into warnings for the default index=off configuration.
Recently, commit 146d62e5a5 ("ovl: detect overlapping layers") in
v5.2, re-introduced exclusive upper/work dir checks regardless of
index=off configuration.
This changes the status quo and mount leak related bug reports have
started to re-surface. Restore the status quo to fix the regressions.
To clarify, index=off does NOT relax overlapping layers check for this
ovelayfs mount. index=off only relaxes exclusive upper/work dir checks
with another overlayfs mount.
To cover the part of overlapping layers detection that used the
exclusive upper/work dir checks to detect overlap with self upper/work
dir, add a trap also on the work base dir.

Overlapping overlay layers are not supported and can cause unexpected
behavior, but overlayfs does not currently check or warn about these
configurations.
User is not supposed to specify the same directory for upper and
lower dirs or for different lower layers and user is not supposed to
specify directories that are descendants of each other for overlay
layers, but that is exactly what this zysbot repro did:
https://syzkaller.appspot.com/x/repro.syz?x=12c7a94f400000
Moving layer root directories into other layers while overlayfs
is mounted could also result in unexpected behavior.
This commit places "traps" in the overlay inode hash table.
Those traps are dummy overlay inodes that are hashed by the layers
root inodes.
On mount, the hash table trap entries are used to verify that overlay
layers are not overlapping. While at it, we also verify that overlay
layers are not overlapping with directories "in-use" by other overlay
instances as upperdir/workdir.
On lookup, the trap entries are used to verify that overlay layers
root inodes have not been moved into other layers after mount.

"Just bug fixes in this small update"
* tag 'ovl-update-5.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/vfs:
ovl: relax WARN_ON() for overlapping layers use case
ovl: check the capability before cred overridden
ovl: do not generate duplicate fsnotify events for "fake" path
ovl: support stacked SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA
ovl: fix missing upper fs freeze protection on copy up for ioctl
This nasty little syzbot repro:
https://syzkaller.appspot.com/x/repro.syz?x=12c7a94f400000
Creates overlay mounts where the same directory is both in upper and lower
layers. Simplified example:
mkdir foo work
mount -t overlay none foo -o"lowerdir=.,upperdir=foo,workdir=work"
The repro runs several threads in parallel that attempt to chdir into foo
and attempt to symlink/rename/exec/mkdir the file bar.
The repro hits a WARN_ON() I placed in ovl_instantiate(), which suggests
that an overlay inode already exists in cache and is hashed by the pointer
of the real upper dentry that ovl_create_real() has just created. At the
point of the WARN_ON(), for overlay dir inode lock is held and upper dir
inode lock, so at first, I did not see how this was possible.
On a closer look, I see that after ovl_create_real(), because of the
overlapping upper and lower layers, a lookup by another thread can find the
file foo/bar that was just created in upper layer, at overlay path
foo/foo/bar and hash the an overlay inode with the new real dentry as lower
dentry. This is possible because the overlay directory foo/foo is not
locked and the upper dentry foo/bar is in dcache, so ovl_lookup() can find
it without taking upper dir inode shared lock.
Overlapping layers is considered a wrong setup which would result in
unexpected behavior, but it shouldn't crash the kernel and it shouldn't
trigger WARN_ON() either, so relax this WARN_ON() and leave a pr_warn()
instead to cover all cases of failure to get an overlay inode.
The error returned from failure to insert new inode to cache with
inode_insert5() was changed to -EEXIST, to distinguish from the error
-ENOMEM returned on failure to get/allocate inode with iget5_locked().

Overlayfs "fake" path is used for stacked file operations on underlying
files. Operations on files with "fake" path must not generate fsnotify
events with path data, because those events have already been generated at
overlayfs layer and because the reported event->fd for fanotify marks on
underlying inode/filesystem will have the wrong path (the overlayfs path).

Generalize the helper ovl_open_maybe_copy_up() and use it to copy up file
with data before FS_IOC_SETFLAGS ioctl.
The FS_IOC_SETFLAGS ioctl is a bit of an odd ball in vfs, which probably
caused the confusion. File may be open O_RDONLY, but ioctl modifies the
file. VFS does not call mnt_want_write_file() nor lock inode mutex, but
fs-specific code for FS_IOC_SETFLAGS does. So ovl_ioctl() calls
mnt_want_write_file() for the overlay file, and fs-specific code calls
mnt_want_write_file() for upper fs file, but there was no call for
ovl_want_write() for copy up duration which prevents overlayfs from copying
up on a frozen upper fs.

If a file has been copied up metadata only, and later data is copied up,
upper loses any security.capability xattr it has (underlying filesystem
clears it as upon file write).
From a user's point of view, this is just a file copy-up and that should
not result in losing security.capability xattr. Hence, before data copy
up, save security.capability xattr (if any) and restore it on upper after
data copy up is complete.

If a file with capability set (and hence security.capability xattr) is
written kernel clears security.capability xattr. For overlay, during file
copy up if xattrs are copied up first and then data is, copied up. This
means data copy up will result in clearing of security.capability xattr
file on lower has. And this can result into surprises. If a lower file has
CAP_SETUID, then it should not be cleared over copy up (if nothing was
actually written to file).
This also creates problems with chown logic where it first copies up file
and then tries to clear setuid bit. But by that time security.capability
xattr is already gone (due to data copy up), and caller gets -ENODATA.
This has been reported by Giuseppe here.

When decoding a lower file handle, we first call ovl_check_origin_fh()
with connected=false to get any real lower dentry for overlay inode
cache lookup.
If the real dentry is a disconnected dir dentry, ovl_check_origin_fh()
is called again with connected=true to get a connected real dentry
and find the lower layer the real dentry belongs to.
If the first call returned a connected real dentry, we use it to
lookup an overlay connected dentry, but the first ovl_check_origin_fh()
call with connected=false did not check that the found dentry is under
the root of the layer (see ovl_acceptable()), it only checked that
the found dentry super block matches the uuid of the lower file handle.
In case there are multiple lower layers on the same fs and the found
dentry is not from the top most lower layer, using the layer index
returned from the first ovl_check_origin_fh() is wrong and we end
up failing to decode the file handle.
Fix this by always calling ovl_check_origin_fh() with connected=true
if we got a directory dentry in the first call.

Current behavior is to automatically disable metacopy if redirect_dir is
not enabled and proceed with the mount.
If "metacopy=on" mount option was given, then this behavior can confuse the
user: no mount failure, yet metacopy is disabled.
This patch makes metacopy=on imply redirect_dir=on.
The converse is also true: turning off full redirect with redirect_dir=
{off|follow|nofollow} will disable metacopy.
If both metacopy=on and redirect_dir={off|follow|nofollow} is specified,
then mount will fail, since there's no way to correctly resolve the
conflict.

Change the remap_file_range functions to take a number of bytes to
operate upon and return the number of bytes they operated on. This is a
requirement for allowing fs implementations to return short clone/dedupe
results to the user, which will enable us to obey resource limits in a
graceful manner.
A subsequent patch will enable copy_file_range to signal to the
->clone_file_range implementation that it can handle a short length,
which will be returned in the function's return value. For now the
short return is not implemented anywhere so the behavior won't change --
either copy_file_range manages to clone the entire range or it tries an
alternative.

We use uuid to associate an overlay lower file handle with a lower layer,
so we can accept lower fs with null uuid as long as all lower layers with
null uuid are on the same fs.
This change allows enabling index and nfs_export features for the setup of
single lower fs of type squashfs - squashfs supports file handles, but has
a null uuid. This change also allows enabling index and nfs_export features
for nested overlayfs, where the lower overlay has nfs_export enabled.
Enabling the index feature with single lower squashfs fixes the
unionmount-testsuite test:
./run --ov --squashfs --verify
As a by-product, if, like the lower squashfs, upper fs also uses the
generic export_encode_fh() implementation to export 32bit inode file
handles (e.g. ext4), then the xino_auto config/module/mount option will
enable unique overlay inode numbers.

This call chain was hard to analyse for locking correctness because the

locking requirements for the !c->tmpfile flow (i.e. directory vs. regulare

vfs_clone_file_range() moving the freeze protection to former, so
overlayfs could call the latter.
The more common vfs practice is to call do_xxx helpers from vfs_xxx

this anomality could be a source of confusion.
It seems that commit 8ede205541 ("ovl: add reflink/copyfile/dedup

ovl_clone_file_range() calls the vfs_clone_file_range() helper in the
hope of getting freeze protection on upper fs, but in fact results in
overlayfs allowing to bypass upper fs freeze protection.
Swap the names of the two helpers to conform to common vfs practice
and call the correct helpers from overlayfs and nfsd.

Since overlayfs implements stacked file operations, the underlying
filesystems are not supposed to be exposed to the overlayfs file,
whose f_inode is an overlayfs inode.
Assigning an overlayfs file to swap_file results in an attempt of xfs
code to dereference an xfs_inode struct from an ovl_inode pointer:
CPU: 0 PID: 2462 Comm: swapon Not tainted

Call Trace:

Fix this by not assigning the real inode mapping to f_mapping, which
will cause swapon() to return an error (-EINVAL). Although it makes
sense not to allow setting swpafile on an overlayfs file, some users
may depend on it, so we may need to fix this up in the future.
Keeping f_mapping pointing to overlay inode mapping will cause O_DIRECT
open to fail. Fix this by installing ovl_aops with noop_direct_IO in
overlay inode mapping.
Keeping f_mapping pointing to overlay inode mapping will cause other
a_ops related operations to fail (e.g. readahead()). Those will be

ovl_copy_up() by default will only do metadata only copy up (if enabled).
That means when ovl_real_ioctl() calls ovl_real_file(), it will still get
the lower file (as ovl_real_file() opens data file and not metacopy). And
that means "chattr +i" will end up modifying lower inode.
There seem to be two ways to solve this.
A. Open metacopy file in ovl_real_ioctl() and do operations on that
B. Force full copy up when FS_IOC_SETFLAGS is called.
I am resorting to option B for now as it feels little safer option. If
there are performance issues due to this, we can revisit it.

truncate should copy up full file (and not do metacopy only), otherwise it
will be broken. For example, use truncate to increase size of a file so
that any read beyong existing size will return null bytes. If we don't
copy up full file, then we end up opening lower file and read from it only
reads upto the old size (and not new size after truncate). Hence to avoid
such situations, copy up data as well when file size changes.
So far it was being done by d_real(O_WRONLY) call in truncate() path. Now
that patch has been reverted. So force full copy up in ovl_setattr() if

Right now we seem to check redirect only if upperdentry is found. But it
is possible that there is no upperdentry but later we found an index.
We need to check redirect on index as well and set it in
ovl_inode->redirect. Otherwise link code can assume that dentry does not
have redirect and place a new one which breaks things. In my testing
overlay/033 test started failing in xfstests. Following are the details.
For example do following.
$ mkdir lower upper work merged
- Make lower dir with 4 links.
$ echo "foo" > lower/l0.txt
$ ln lower/l0.txt lower/l1.txt
$ ln lower/l0.txt lower/l2.txt
$ ln lower/l0.txt lower/l3.txt
- Mount with index on and metacopy on.
$ mount -t overlay -o lowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=work,\
index=on,metacopy=on none merged
- Link lower
$ ln merged/l0.txt merged/l4.txt
(This will metadata copy up of l0.txt and put an absolute redirect
/l0.txt)
$ echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop/caches
$ ls merged/l1.txt
(Now l1.txt will be looked up. There is no upper dentry but there is
lower dentry and index will be found. We don't check for redirect on
index, hence ovl_inode->redirect will be NULL.)
- Link Upper
$ ln merged/l4.txt merged/l5.txt
(Lookup of l4.txt will use inode from l1.txt lookup which is still in
cache. It has ovl_inode->redirect NULL, hence link will put a new
redirect and replace /l0.txt with /l4.txt
- Drop caches.
echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
- List l1.txt and it returns -ESTALE
$ ls merged/l0.txt
(It returns stale because, we found a metacopy of l0.txt in upper and it
has redirect l4.txt but there is no file named l4.txt in lower layer.
So lower data copy is not found and -ESTALE is returned.)
So problem here is that we did not process redirect on index. Check
redirect on index as well and then problem is fixed.

When we create a hardlink to a metacopy upper file, first the redirect on
that inode. Path based lookup will not work with newly created link and
redirect will solve that issue.
Also use absolute redirect as two hardlinks could be in different
directores and relative redirect will not work.
I have not put any additional locking around setting redirects while
introducing redirects for non-dir files. For now it feels like existing
locking is sufficient. If that's not the case, we will have add more
locking. Following is my rationale about why do I think current locking
seems ok.
Basic problem for non-dir files is that more than on dentry could be
pointing to same inode and in theory only relying on dentry based locks
(d->d_lock) did not seem sufficient.
We set redirect upon rename and upon link creation. In both the paths for
non-dir file, VFS locks both source and target inodes (->i_rwsem). That
means vfs rename and link operations on same source and target can't he
happening in parallel (Even if there are multiple dentries pointing to same
inode). So that probably means that at a time on an inode, only one call
of ovl_set_redirect() could be working and we don't need additional locking
in ovl_set_redirect().
ovl_inode->redirect is initialized only when inode is created new. That
means it should not race with any other path and setting
ovl_inode->redirect should be fine.
Reading of ovl_inode->redirect happens in ovl_get_redirect() path. And
this called only in ovl_set_redirect(). And ovl_set_redirect() already
seemed to be protected using ->i_rwsem. That means ovl_set_redirect() and
ovl_get_redirect() on source/target inode should not make progress in
parallel and is mutually exclusive. Hence no additional locking required.
Now, only case where ovl_set_redirect() and ovl_get_redirect() could race
seems to be case of absolute redirects where ovl_get_redirect() has to
travel up the tree. In that case we already take d->d_lock and that should
be sufficient as directories will not have multiple dentries pointing to
same inode.
So given VFS locking and current usage of redirect, current locking around
redirect seems to be ok for non-dir as well. Once we have the logic to
remove redirect when metacopy file gets copied up, then we probably will
need additional locking.

If a dentry has copy up origin, we set flag OVL_PATH_ORIGIN. So far this
decision was easy that we had to check only for oe->numlower and if it is
non-zero, we knew there is copy up origin. (For non-dir we installed
origin dentry in lowerstack[0]).
But we don't create ORGIN xattr for broken hardlinks (index=off). And with
metacopy feature it is possible that we will install lowerstack[0] but
ORIGIN xattr is not there. It is data dentry of upper metacopy dentry
which has been found using regular name based lookup or using REDIRECT. So
with addition of this new case, just presence of oe->numlower is not
sufficient to guarantee that ORIGIN xattr is present.
So to differentiate between two cases, look at OVL_CONST_INO flag. If this
flag is set and upperdentry is there, that means it can be marked as type
ORIGIN. OVL_CONST_INO is not set if lower hardlink is broken or will be
broken over copy up.

Now we will have the capability to have upper inodes which might be only
metadata copy up and data is still on lower inode. So add a new xattr
OVL_XATTR_METACOPY to distinguish between two cases.
Presence of OVL_XATTR_METACOPY reflects that file has been copied up
metadata only and and data will be copied up later from lower origin. So
this xattr is set when a metadata copy takes place and cleared when data
copy takes place.
We also use a bit in ovl_inode->flags to cache OVL_UPPERDATA which reflects
whether ovl inode has data or not (as opposed to metadata only copy up).
If a file is copied up metadata only and later when same file is opened for
WRITE, then data copy up takes place. We copy up data, remove METACOPY
xattr and then set the UPPERDATA flag in ovl_inode->flags. While all these
operations happen with oi->lock held, read side of oi->flags can be
lockless. That is another thread on another cpu can check if UPPERDATA
flag is set or not.
So this gives us an ordering requirement w.r.t UPPERDATA flag. That is, if
another cpu sees UPPERDATA flag set, then it should be guaranteed that
effects of data copy up and remove xattr operations are also visible.
For example.
CPU1 CPU2
ovl_open() acquire(oi->lock)
ovl_open_maybe_copy_up() ovl_copy_up_data()
open_open_need_copy_up() vfs_removexattr()
ovl_already_copied_up()
ovl_dentry_needs_data_copy_up() ovl_set_flag(OVL_UPPERDATA)
ovl_test_flag(OVL_UPPERDATA) release(oi->lock)
Say CPU2 is copying up data and in the end sets UPPERDATA flag. But if
CPU1 perceives the effects of setting UPPERDATA flag but not the effects of
preceding operations (ex. upper that is not fully copied up), it will be a
problem.
Hence this patch introduces smp_wmb() on setting UPPERDATA flag operation
and smp_rmb() on UPPERDATA flag test operation.
May be some other lock or barrier is already covering it. But I am not sure
what that is and is it obvious enough that we will not break it in future.
So hence trying to be safe here and introducing barriers explicitly for
UPPERDATA flag/bit.

This is a late set of changes from Deepa Dinamani doing an automated
treewide conversion of the inode and iattr structures from 'timespec'
to 'timespec64', to push the conversion from the VFS layer into the
individual file systems.
There were no conflicts between this and the contents of linux-next
until just before the merge window, when we saw multiple problems:
- A minor conflict with my own y2038 fixes, which I could address
by adding another patch on top here.
- One semantic conflict with late changes to the NFS tree. I addressed
this by merging Deepa's original branch on top of the changes that
now got merged into mainline and making sure the merge commit includes
the necessary changes as produced by coccinelle.
- A trivial conflict against the removal of staging/lustre.
- Multiple conflicts against the VFS changes in the overlayfs tree.
These are still part of linux-next, but apparently this is no longer
intended for 4.18 [1], so I am ignoring that part.
As Deepa writes:
The series aims to switch vfs timestamps to use struct timespec64.
Currently vfs uses struct timespec, which is not y2038 safe.
The series involves the following:
1. Add vfs helper functions for supporting struct timepec64 timestamps.
2. Cast prints of vfs timestamps to avoid warnings after the switch.
3. Simplify code using vfs timestamps so that the actual
replacement becomes easy.
4. Convert vfs timestamps to use struct timespec64 using a script.
This is a flag day patch.
Next steps:
1. Convert APIs that can handle timespec64, instead of converting
timestamps at the boundaries.
2. Update internal data structures to avoid timestamp conversions.
Thomas Gleixner adds:

The whole thing needs to be done in one go for the core changes which
means that you're going to play that catchup game forever. Let's get

Currently, there is a small window where ovl_obtain_alias() can
race with ovl_instantiate() and create two different overlay inodes
with the same underlying real non-dir non-hardlink inode.
The race requires an adversary to guess the file handle of the
yet to be created upper inode and decode the guessed file handle
after ovl_creat_real(), but before ovl_instantiate().
This race does not affect overlay directory inodes, because those
are decoded via ovl_lookup_real() and not with ovl_obtain_alias().
This patch fixes the race, by using inode_insert5() to add a newly
created inode to cache.
If the newly created inode apears to already exist in cache (hashed
by the same real upper inode), we instantiate the dentry with the old
inode and drop the new inode, instead of silently not hashing the new
inode.

With mount option "xino=on", mounter declares that there are enough
free high bits in underlying fs to hold the layer fsid.
If overlayfs does encounter underlying inodes using the high xino
bits reserved for layer fsid, a warning will be emitted and the original
inode number will be used.
The mount option name "xino" goes after a similar meaning mount option
of aufs, but in overlayfs case, the mapping is stateless.
An example for a use case of "xino=on" is when upper/lower is on an xfs
filesystem. xfs uses 64bit inode numbers, but it currently never uses the
upper 8bit for inode numbers exposed via stat(2) and that is not likely to
change in the future without user opting-in for a new xfs feature. The
actual number of unused upper bit is much larger and determined by the xfs
filesystem geometry (64 - agno_log - agblklog - inopblog). That means
that for all practical purpose, there are enough unused bits in xfs
inode numbers for more than OVL_MAX_STACK unique fsid's.
Another use case of "xino=on" is when upper/lower is on tmpfs. tmpfs inode
numbers are allocated sequentially since boot, so they will practially
never use the high inode number bits.
For compatibility with applications that expect 32bit inodes, the feature
can be disabled with "xino=off". The option "xino=auto" automatically
detects underlying filesystem that use 32bit inodes and enables the
feature. The Kconfig option OVERLAY_FS_XINO_AUTO and module parameter of
the same name, determine if the default mode for overlayfs mount is
"xino=auto" or "xino=off".

On 64bit systems, when overlay layers are not all on the same fs, but
all inode numbers of underlying fs are not using the high bits, use the
high bits to partition the overlay st_ino address space. The high bits
hold the fsid (upper fsid is 0). This way overlay inode numbers are unique
and all inodes use overlay st_dev. Inode numbers are also persistent
for a given layer configuration.
Currently, our only indication for available high ino bits is from a
filesystem that supports file handles and uses the default encode_fh()
operation, which encodes a 32bit inode number.

When decoding a lower file handle, we need to check if lower file was
copied up and indexed and if it has a whiteout index, we need to check
if this is an unlinked but open non-dir before returning -ESTALE.
To find out if this is an unlinked but open non-dir we need to lookup
an overlay inode in inode cache by lower inode and that requires decoding
the lower file handle before looking in inode cache.
Before this change, if the lower inode turned out to be a directory, we
may have paid an expensive cost to reconnect that lower directory for
nothing.
After this change, we start by decoding a disconnected lower dentry and
using the lower inode for looking up an overlay inode in inode cache.
If we find overlay inode and dentry in cache, we avoid the index lookup
overhead. If we don't find an overlay inode and dentry in cache, then we
only need to decode a connected lower dentry in case the lower dentry is
a non-indexed directory.
The xfstests group overlay/exportfs tests decoding overlayfs file
handles after drop_caches with different states of the file at encode
and decode time. Overall the tests in the group call ovl_lower_fh_to_d()
89 times to decode a lower file handle.
Before this change, the tests called ovl_get_index_fh() 75 times and
reconnect_one() 61 times.
After this change, the tests call ovl_get_index_fh() 70 times and
reconnect_one() 59 times. The 2 cases where reconnect_one() was avoided
are cases where a non-upper directory file handle was encoded, then the
directory removed and then file handle was decoded.
To demonstrate the affect on decoding file handles with hot inode/dentry
cache, the drop_caches call in the tests was disabled. Without
drop_caches, there are no reconnect_one() calls at all before or after
the change. Before the change, there are 75 calls to ovl_get_index_fh(),
exactly as the case with drop_caches. After the change, there are only
10 calls to ovl_get_index_fh().

On lookup of non directory, we try to decode the origin file handle
stored in upper inode. The origin file handle is supposed to be decoded
to a disconnected non-dir dentry, which is fine, because we only need
the lower inode of a copy up origin.
However, if the origin file handle somehow turns out to be a directory
we pay the expensive cost of reconnecting the directory dentry, only to
get a mismatch file type and drop the dentry.
Optimize this case by explicitly opting out of reconnecting the dentry.
Opting-out of reconnect is done by passing a NULL acceptable callback
to exportfs_decode_fh().
While the case described above is a strange corner case that does not
really need to be optimized, the API added for this optimization will
be used by a following patch to optimize a more common case of decoding
an overlayfs file handle.

As of now if we encounter an opaque dir while looking for a dentry, we set
d->last=true. This means that there is no need to look further in any of
the lower layers. This works fine as long as there are no redirets or
relative redircts. But what if there is an absolute redirect on the
children dentry of opaque directory. We still need to continue to look into
next lower layer. This patch fixes it.
Here is an example to demonstrate the issue. Say you have following setup.
upper: /redirect (redirect=/a/b/c)
lower1: /a/[b]/c ([b] is opaque) (c has absolute redirect=/a/b/d/)
lower0: /a/b/d/foo
Now "redirect" dir should merge with lower1:/a/b/c/ and lower0:/a/b/d.
Note, despite the fact lower1:/a/[b] is opaque, we need to continue to look
into lower0 because children c has an absolute redirect.
Following is a reproducer.
Watch me make foo disappear:
$ mkdir lower middle upper work work2 merged
$ mkdir lower/origin
$ touch lower/origin/foo
$ mount -t overlay none merged/ \
-olowerdir=lower,upperdir=middle,workdir=work2
$ mkdir merged/pure
$ mv merged/origin merged/pure/redirect
$ umount merged
$ mount -t overlay none merged/ \
-olowerdir=middle:lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=work
$ mv merged/pure/redirect merged/redirect
Now you see foo inside a twice redirected merged dir:
$ ls merged/redirect
foo
$ umount merged
$ mount -t overlay none merged/ \
-olowerdir=middle:lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=work
After mount cycle you don't see foo inside the same dir:
$ ls merged/redirect
During middle layer lookup, the opaqueness of middle/pure is left in
the lookup state and then middle/pure/redirect is wrongly treated as
opaque.

d->last signifies that this is the last layer we are looking into and there
is no more. And that means this allows for some optimzation opportunities
during lookup. For example, in ovl_lookup_single() we don't have to check
for opaque xattr of a directory is this is the last layer we are looking
into (d->last = true).
But knowing for sure whether we are looking into last layer can be very
tricky. If redirects are not enabled, then we can look at poe->numlower and
figure out if the lookup we are about to is last layer or not. But if
redircts are enabled then it is possible poe->numlower suggests that we are
looking in last layer, but there is an absolute redirect present in found
element and that redirects us to a layer in root and that means lookup will
continue in lower layers further.
For example, consider following.
/upperdir/pure (opaque=y)
/upperdir/pure/foo (opaque=y,redirect=/bar)
/lowerdir/bar
In this case pure is "pure upper". When we look for "foo", that time
poe->numlower=0. But that alone does not mean that we will not search for a
merge candidate in /lowerdir. Absolute redirect changes that.
IOW, d->last should not be set just based on poe->numlower if redirects are
enabled. That can lead to setting d->last while it should not have and that
means we will not check for opaque xattr while we should have.
So do this.
- If redirects are not enabled, then continue to rely on poe->numlower
information to determine if it is last layer or not.
- If redirects are enabled, then set d->last = true only if this is the
last layer in root ovl_entry (roe).

Eddie Horng reported that readdir of an overlayfs directory that
was exported via NFSv3 returns entries with d_type set to DT_UNKNOWN.
The reason is that while preparing the response for readdirplus, nfsd
checks inside encode_entryplus_baggage() that a child dentry's inode
number matches the value of d_ino returns by overlayfs readdir iterator.
Because the overlayfs inodes use arbitrary inode numbers that are not
correlated with the values of st_ino/d_ino, NFSv3 falls back to not
encoding d_type. Although this is an allowed behavior, we can fix it for
the case of all overlayfs layers on the same underlying filesystem.
When NFS export is enabled and d_ino is consistent with st_ino
(samefs), set the same value also to i_ino in ovl_fill_inode() for all
overlayfs inodes, nfsd readdirplus sanity checks will pass.
ovl_fill_inode() may be called from ovl_new_inode(), before real inode
was created with ino arg 0. In that case, i_ino will be updated to real
upper inode i_ino on ovl_inode_init() or ovl_inode_update().

redirect_dir=nofollow should not follow a redirect. But in a specific

$ mount -t overlay -o lowerdir=lower1:lower0,workdir=work,upperdir=upper,redirect_dir=on none merged
$ cd merged
$ mv foo foo-renamed
$ umount merged
# mount again. This time with redirect_dir=nofollow
$ mount -t overlay -o lowerdir=lower1:lower0,workdir=work,upperdir=upper,redirect_dir=nofollow none merged
$ ls merged/foo-renamed/
# This lists lower-file.txt, while it should not have.
Basically, we are doing redirect check after we check for d.stop. And
if this is not last lower, and we find an opaque lower, d.stop will be
set.
ovl_lookup_single()
if (!d->last && ovl_is_opaquedir(this)) {
d->stop = d->opaque = true;
goto out;
}
To fix this, first check redirect is allowed. And after that check if

This change relaxes copy up on encode of merge dir with lower layer > 1
and handles the case of encoding a merge dir with lower layer 1, where an
ancestor is a non-indexed merge dir. In that case, decode of the lower
file handle will not have been possible if the non-indexed ancestor is
redirected before or after encode.
Before encoding a non-upper directory file handle from real layer N, we
need to check if it will be possible to reconnect an overlay dentry from
the real lower decoded dentry. This is done by following the overlay
ancestry up to a "layer N connected" ancestor and verifying that all
parents along the way are "layer N connectable". If an ancestor that is
NOT "layer N connectable" is found, we need to copy up an ancestor, which
is "layer N connectable", thus making that ancestor "layer N connected".
For example:
layer 1: /a
layer 2: /a/b/c
The overlay dentry /a is NOT "layer 2 connectable", because if dir /a is
copied up and renamed, upper dir /a will be indexed by lower dir /a from
layer 1. The dir /a from layer 2 will never be indexed, so the algorithm
in ovl_lookup_real_ancestor() (*) will not be able to lookup a connected
overlay dentry from the connected lower dentry /a/b/c.
To avoid this problem on decode time, we need to copy up an ancestor of
/a/b/c, which is "layer 2 connectable", on encode time. That ancestor is
/a/b. After copy up (and index) of /a/b, it will become "layer 2 connected"
and when the time comes to decode the file handle from lower dentry /a/b/c,
ovl_lookup_real_ancestor() will find the indexed ancestor /a/b and decoding
a connected overlay dentry will be accomplished.
(*) the algorithm in ovl_lookup_real_ancestor() can be improved to lookup
an entry /a in the lower layers above layer N and find the indexed dir /a
from layer 1. If that improvement is made, then the check for "layer N
connected" will need to verify there are no redirects in lower layers above
layer N. In the example above, /a will be "layer 2 connectable". However,
if layer 2 dir /a is a target of a layer 1 redirect, then /a will NOT be
"layer 2 connectable":
layer 1: /A (redirect = /a)
layer 2: /a/b/c

Commit 31747eda41 ("ovl: hash directory inodes for fsnotify")
fixed an issue of inotify watch on directory that stops getting
events after dropping dentry caches.
A similar issue exists for non-dir non-upper files, for example:
$ mkdir -p lower upper work merged
$ touch lower/foo
$ mount -t overlay -o
lowerdir=lower,workdir=work,upperdir=upper none merged
$ inotifywait merged/foo &
$ echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
$ cat merged/foo
inotifywait doesn't get the OPEN event, because ovl_lookup() called
from 'cat' allocates a new overlay inode and does not reuse the
watched inode.
Fix this by hashing non-dir overlay inodes by lower real inode in
the following cases that were not hashed before this change:
- A non-upper overlay mount
- A lower non-hardlink when index=off
A helper ovl_hash_bylower() was added to put all the logic and
documentation about which real inode an overlay inode is hashed by
into one place.
The issue dates back to initial version of overlayfs, but this
patch depends on ovl_inode code that was introduced in kernel v4.13.

A re-factoring patch in NFS export series has passed the wrong argument
to ovl_get_inode() causing a regression in the very recent fix to
fsnotify of overlay merge dir.
The regression has caused merge directory inodes to be hashed by upper
instead of lower real inode, when NFS export and directory indexing is
disabled. That caused an inotify watch to become obsolete after directory
copy up and drop caches.
LTP test inotify07 was improved to catch this regression.
The regression also caused multiple redirect dirs to same origin not to
be detected on lookup with NFS export disabled. An xfstest was added to
cover this case.

ovl_lookup_real() in lower layer walks back lower parents to find the
topmost indexed parent. If an indexed ancestor is found before reaching
lower layer root, ovl_lookup_real() is called recursively with upper
layer to walk back from indexed upper to the topmost connected/hashed
upper parent (or up to root).
ovl_lookup_real() in upper layer then walks forward to connect the topmost
upper overlay dir dentry and ovl_lookup_real() in lower layer continues to
walk forward to connect the decoded lower overlay dir dentry.

Similar to decoding a pure upper dir file handle, decoding a pure lower
dir file handle is implemented by looking an overlay dentry of the same
path as the pure lower path and verifying that the overlay dentry's
real lower matches the decoded real lower file handle.
Unlike the case of upper dir file handle, the lookup of overlay path by
lower real path can fail or find a mismatched overlay dentry if any of
the lower parents have been copied up and renamed. To address this case
we will need to check if any of the lower parents are indexed.

We only need to encode origin if there is a chance that the same object was
encoded pre copy up and then we need to stay consistent with the same
encoding also after copy up.
In case a non-pure upper is not indexed, then it was copied up before NFS
export support was enabled. In that case, we don't need to worry about
staying consistent with pre copy up encoding and we encode an upper file
handle.
This mitigates the problem that with no index, we cannot find an upper
inode from origin inode, so we cannot decode a non-indexed upper from
origin file handle.

Until this change, we decoded upper file handles by instantiating an
overlay dentry from the real upper dentry. This is sufficient to handle
pure upper files, but insufficient to handle merge/impure dirs.
To that end, if decoded real upper dir is connected and hashed, we
lookup an overlay dentry with the same path as the real upper dir.
If decoded real upper is non-dir, we instantiate a disconnected overlay
dentry as before this change.
Because ovl_fh_to_dentry() returns a connected overlay dir dentry,
exportfs never needs to call get_parent() and get_name() to reconnect an
upper overlay dir. Because connectable non-dir file handles are not
supported, exportfs will not be able to use fh_to_parent() and get_name()
methods to reconnect a disconnected non-dir to its parent. Therefore, the
methods get_parent() and get_name() are implemented just to print out a
sanity warning and the method fh_to_parent() is implemented to warn the
user that using the 'subtree_check' exportfs option is not supported.
An alternative approach could have been to implement instantiating of
an overlay directory inode from origin/index and implement get_parent()
and get_name() by calling into underlying fs operations and them
instantiating the overlay parent dir.
The reasons for not choosing the get_parent() approach were:
- Obtaining a disconnected overlay dir dentry would requires a
delicate re-factoring of ovl_lookup() to get a dentry with overlay
parent info. It was preferred to avoid doing that re-factoring unless
it was proven worthy.
- Going down the path of disconnected dir would mean that the (non
trivial) code path of d_splice_alias() could be traveled and that
meant writing more tests and introduces race cases that are very hard
to hit on purpose. Taking the path of connecting overlay dentry by
forward lookup is therefore the safe and boring way to avoid surprises.
The culprits of the chosen "connected overlay dentry" approach:
- We need to take special care to rename of ancestors while connecting
the overlay dentry by real dentry path. These subtleties are usually
handled by generic exportfs and VFS code.
- In a hypothetical workload, we could end up in a loop trying to connect,
interrupted by rename and restarting connect forever.

A directory index is a directory type entry in index dir with a
"trusted.overlay.upper" xattr containing an encoded ovl_fh of the merge
directory upper dir inode.
On lookup of non-dir files, lower file is followed by origin file handle.
On lookup of dir entries, lower dir is found by name and then compared
to origin file handle. We only trust dir index if we verified that lower
dir matches origin file handle, otherwise index may be inconsistent and
we ignore it.
If we find an indexed non-upper dir or an indexed merged dir, whose
index 'upper' xattr points to a different upper dir, that means that the
lower directory may be also referenced by another upper dir via redirect,
so we fail the lookup on inconsistency error.
To be consistent with directory index entries format, the association of
index dir to upper root dir, that was stored by older kernels in
"trusted.overlay.origin" xattr is now stored in "trusted.overlay.upper"
xattr. This also serves as an indication that overlay was mounted with a
kernel that support index directory entries. For backward compatibility,
if an 'origin' xattr exists on the index dir we also verify it on mount.
Directory index entries are going to be used for NFS export.

On a malformed overlay, several redirected dirs can point to the same

hardlinks, because different objects in the overlay can return the same

When the NFS export feature is enabled, overlayfs implicitly enables the
feature "verify_lower". When the "verify_lower" feature is enabled, a
directory inode found in lower layer by name or by redirect_dir is
verified against the file handle of the copy up origin that is stored in
the upper layer.
This introduces a change of behavior for the case of lower layer
modification while overlay is offline. A lower directory created or
moved offline under an exisitng upper directory, will not be merged with
that upper directory.
The NFS export feature should not be used after copying layers, because
the new lower directory inodes would fail verification and won't be

Introduce the "nfs_export" config, module and mount options.
The NFS export feature depends on the "index" feature and enables two
implicit overlayfs features: "index_all" and "verify_lower".
The "index_all" feature creates an index on copy up of every file and
directory. The "verify_lower" feature uses the full index to detect
overlay filesystems inconsistencies on lookup, like redirect from
multiple upper dirs to the same lower dir.
NFS export can be enabled for non-upper mount with no index. However,
because lower layer redirects cannot be verified with the index, enabling
NFS export support on an overlay with no upper layer requires turning off
redirect follow (e.g. "redirect_dir=nofollow").
The full index may incur some overhead on mount time, especially when
verifying that lower directory file handles are not stale.
NFS export support, full index and consistency verification will be
implemented by following patches.
