9011c2791e ovl: skip stale entries in merge dir cache iteration
On the first getdents call, ovl_iterate() populates the readdir cache
with a list of entries, but for upper entries with origin lower inode,
p->ino remains zero.

Following getdents calls traverse the readdir cache list and call
ovl_cache_update_ino() for entries with zero p->ino to lookup the entry
in the overlay and return d_ino that is consistent with st_ino.

If the upper file was unlinked between the first getdents call and the
getdents call that lists the file entry, ovl_cache_update_ino() will not
find the entry and fall back to setting d_ino to the upper real st_ino,
which is inconsistent with how this object was presented to users.

Instead of listing a stale entry with inconsistent d_ino, simply skip
the stale entry, which is better for users.

xfstest overlay/077 is failing without this patch.

65cd913ec9 ovl: invalidate readdir cache on changes to dir with origin
The test in ovl_dentry_version_inc() was out-dated and did not include
the case where readdir cache is used on a non-merge dir that has origin
xattr, indicating that it may contain leftover whiteouts.

To make the code more robust, use the same helper ovl_dir_is_real()
to determine if readdir cache should be used and if readdir cache should
be invalidated.

335d3fc579 ovl: implement volatile-specific fsync error behaviour
Overlayfs's volatile option allows the user to bypass all forced sync calls
to the upperdir filesystem. This comes at the cost of safety. We can never
ensure that the user's data is intact, but we can make a best effort to
expose whether or not the data is likely to be in a bad state.

The best way to handle this in the time being is that if an overlayfs's
upperdir experiences an error after a volatile mount occurs, that error
will be returned on fsync, fdatasync, sync, and syncfs. This is
contradictory to the traditional behaviour of VFS which fails the call
once, and only raises an error if a subsequent fsync error has occurred,
and been raised by the filesystem.

One awkward aspect of the patch is that we have to manually set the
superblock's errseq_t after the sync_fs callback as opposed to just
returning an error from syncfs. This is because the call chain looks
something like this:

sys_syncfs ->
	sync_filesystem ->
		__sync_filesystem ->
			/* The return value is ignored here
			sb->s_op->sync_fs(sb)
			_sync_blockdev
		/* Where the VFS fetches the error to raise to userspace */
		errseq_check_and_advance

Because of this we call errseq_set every time the sync_fs callback occurs.
Due to the nature of this seen / unseen dichotomy, if the upperdir is an
inconsistent state at the initial mount time, overlayfs will refuse to
mount, as overlayfs cannot get a snapshot of the upperdir's errseq that
will increment on error until the user calls syncfs.

b854cc659d ovl: avoid deadlock on directory ioctl
The function ovl_dir_real_file() currently uses the inode lock to serialize
writes to the od->upperfile field.

However, this function will get called by ovl_ioctl_set_flags(), which
utilizes the inode lock too.  In this case ovl_dir_real_file() will try to
claim a lock that is owned by a function in its call stack, which won't get
released before ovl_dir_real_file() returns.

Fix by replacing the open coded compare and exchange by an explicit atomic
op.

c86243b090 ovl: provide a mount option "volatile"
Container folks are complaining that dnf/yum issues too many sync while
installing packages and this slows down the image build. Build requirement
is such that they don't care if a node goes down while build was still
going on. In that case, they will simply throw away unfinished layer and
start new build. So they don't care about syncing intermediate state to the
disk and hence don't want to pay the price associated with sync.

So they are asking for mount options where they can disable sync on overlay
mount point.

They primarily seem to have two use cases.

- For building images, they will mount overlay with nosync and then sync
  upper layer after unmounting overlay and reuse upper as lower for next
  layer.

- For running containers, they don't seem to care about syncing upper layer
  because if node goes down, they will simply throw away upper layer and
  create a fresh one.

So this patch provides a mount option "volatile" which disables all forms
of sync. Now it is caller's responsibility to throw away upper if system
crashes or shuts down and start fresh.

With "volatile", I am seeing roughly 20% speed up in my VM where I am just
installing emacs in an image. Installation time drops from 31 seconds to 25
seconds when nosync option is used. This is for the case of building on top
of an image where all packages are already cached. That way I take out the
network operations latency out of the measurement.

Giuseppe is also looking to cut down on number of iops done on the disk. He
is complaining that often in cloud their VMs are throttled if they cross
the limit. This option can help them where they reduce number of iops (by
cutting down on frequent sync and writebacks).

235ce9ed96 ovl: check for incompatible features in work dir
An incompatible feature is marked by a non-empty directory nested
2 levels deep under "work" dir, e.g.:
workdir/work/incompat/volatile.

This commit checks for marked incompat features, warns about them
and fails to mount the overlay, for example:
  overlayfs: overlay with incompat feature 'volatile' cannot be mounted

Very old kernels (i.e. v3.18) will fail to remove a non-empty "work"
dir and fail the mount.  Newer kernels will fail to remove a "work"
dir with entries nested 3 levels and fall back to read-only mount.

User mounting with old kernel will see a warning like these in dmesg:
  overlayfs: cleanup of 'incompat/...' failed (-39)
  overlayfs: cleanup of 'work/incompat' failed (-39)
  overlayfs: cleanup of 'ovl-work/work' failed (-39)
  overlayfs: failed to create directory /vdf/ovl-work/work (errno: 17);
             mounting read-only

These warnings should give the hint to the user that:
1. mount failure is caused by backward incompatible features
2. mount failure can be resolved by manually removing the "work" directory

There is nothing preventing users on old kernels from manually removing
workdir entirely or mounting overlay with a new workdir, so this is in
no way a full proof backward compatibility enforcement, but only a best
effort.

130fdbc3d1 ovl: pass correct flags for opening real directory
The three instances of ovl_path_open() in overlayfs/readdir.c do three
different things:

 - pass f_flags from overlay file
 - pass O_RDONLY | O_DIRECTORY
 - pass just O_RDONLY

The value of f_flags can be (other than O_RDONLY):

O_WRONLY	- not possible for a directory
O_RDWR		- not possible for a directory
O_CREAT		- masked out by dentry_open()
O_EXCL		- masked out by dentry_open()
O_NOCTTY	- masked out by dentry_open()
O_TRUNC		- masked out by dentry_open()
O_APPEND	- no effect on directory ops
O_NDELAY	- no effect on directory ops
O_NONBLOCK	- no effect on directory ops
__O_SYNC	- no effect on directory ops
O_DSYNC		- no effect on directory ops
FASYNC		- no effect on directory ops
O_DIRECT	- no effect on directory ops
O_LARGEFILE	- ?
O_DIRECTORY	- only affects lookup
O_NOFOLLOW	- only affects lookup
O_NOATIME	- overlay sets this unconditionally in ovl_path_open()
O_CLOEXEC	- only affects fd allocation
O_PATH		- no effect on directory ops
__O_TMPFILE	- not possible for a directory


Fon non-merge directories we use the underlying filesystem's iterate; in
this case honor O_LARGEFILE from the original file to make sure that open
doesn't get rejected.

For merge directories it's safe to pass O_LARGEFILE unconditionally since
userspace will only see the artificial offsets created by overlayfs.

926e94d79b ovl: enable xino automatically in more cases
So far, with xino=auto, we only enable xino if we know that all
underlying filesystem use 32bit inode numbers.

When users configure overlay with xino=auto, they already declare that
they are ready to handle 64bit inode number from overlay.

It is a very common case, that underlying filesystem uses 64bit ino,
but rarely or never uses the high inode number bits (e.g. tmpfs, xfs).
Leaving it for the users to declare high ino bits are unused with
xino=on is not a recipe for many users to enjoy the benefits of xino.

There appears to be very little reason not to enable xino when users
declare xino=auto even if we do not know how many bits underlying
filesystem uses for inode numbers.

In the worst case of xino bits overflow by real inode number, we
already fall back to the non-xino behavior - real inode number with
unique pseudo dev or to non persistent inode number and overlay st_dev
(for directories).

The only annoyance from auto enabling xino is that xino bits overflow
emits a warning to kmsg. Suppress those warnings unless users explicitly
asked for xino=on, suggesting that they expected high ino bits to be
unused by underlying filesystem.

dfe51d47b7 ovl: avoid possible inode number collisions with xino=on
When xino feature is enabled and a real directory inode number overflows
the lower xino bits, we cannot map this directory inode number to a unique
and persistent inode number and we fall back to the real inode st_ino and
overlay st_dev.

The real inode st_ino with high bits may collide with a lower inode number
on overlay st_dev that was mapped using xino.

To avoid possible collision with legitimate xino values, map a non
persistent inode number to a dedicated range in the xino address space.
The dedicated range is created by adding one more bit to the number of
reserved high xino bits.  We could have added just one more fsid, but that
would have had the undesired effect of changing persistent overlay inode
numbers on kernel or require more complex xino mapping code.

6d0a8a90a5 ovl: take lower dir inode mutex outside upper sb_writers lock
The functions ovl_lower_positive() and ovl_check_empty_dir() both take
inode mutex on the real lower dir under ovl_want_write() which takes
the upper_mnt sb_writers lock.

While this is not a clear locking order or layering violation, it creates
an undesired lock dependency between two unrelated layers for no good
reason.

This lock dependency materializes to a false(?) positive lockdep warning
when calling rmdir() on a nested overlayfs, where both nested and
underlying overlayfs both use the same fs type as upper layer.

rmdir() on the nested overlayfs creates the lock chain:
  sb_writers of upper_mnt (e.g. tmpfs) in ovl_do_remove()
  ovl_i_mutex_dir_key[] of lower overlay dir in ovl_lower_positive()

rmdir() on the underlying overlayfs creates the lock chain in
reverse order:
  ovl_i_mutex_dir_key[] of lower overlay dir in vfs_rmdir()
  sb_writers of nested upper_mnt (e.g. tmpfs) in ovl_do_remove()

To rid of the unneeded locking dependency, move both ovl_lower_positive()
and ovl_check_empty_dir() to before ovl_want_write() in rmdir() and
rename() implementation.

This change spreads the pieces of ovl_check_empty_and_clear() directly
inside the rmdir()/rename() implementations so the helper is no longer
needed and removed.

d796e77f1d ovl: fix failure to fsync lower dir
As a writable mount, it is not expected for overlayfs to return
EINVAL/EROFS for fsync, even if dir/file is not changed.

This commit fixes the case of fsync of directory, which is easier to
address, because overlayfs already implements fsync file operation for
directories.

The problem reported by Raphael is that new PostgreSQL 10.0 with a
database in overlayfs where lower layer in squashfs fails to start.
The failure is due to fsync error, when PostgreSQL does fsync on all
existing db directories on startup and a specific directory exists
lower layer with no changes.

Pull overlayfs updates from Miklos Szeredi:

 - Report constant st_ino values across copy-up even if underlying
   layers are on different filesystems, but using different st_dev
   values for each layer.

   Ideally we'd report the same st_dev across the overlay, and it's
   possible to do for filesystems that use only 32bits for st_ino by
   unifying the inum space. It would be nice if it wasn't a choice of 32
   or 64, rather filesystems could report their current maximum (that
   could change on resize, so it wouldn't be set in stone).

 - miscellaneus fixes and a cleanup of ovl_fill_super(), that was long
   overdue.

 - created a path_put_init() helper that clears out the pointers after
   putting the ref.

   I think this could be useful elsewhere, so added it to <linux/path.h>

b93436320c ovl: re-structure overlay lower layers in-memory
Define new structures to represent overlay instance lower layers and
overlay merge dir lower layers to make room for storing more per layer
information in-memory.

Instead of keeping the fs instance lower layers in an array of struct
vfsmount, keep them in an array of new struct ovl_layer, that has a
pointer to struct vfsmount.

Instead of keeping the dentry lower layers in an array of struct path,
keep them in an array of new struct ovl_path, that has a pointer to
struct dentry and to struct ovl_layer.

Add a small helper to find the fs layer id that correspopnds to a lower
struct ovl_path and use it in ovl_lookup().

If a non-merge dir in an overlay mount has an overlay.origin xattr, it
means it was once an upper merge dir, which may contain whiteouts and
then the lower dir was removed under it.

Do not iterate real dir directly in this case to avoid exposing whiteouts.

fa0096e3ba ovl: do not cleanup unsupported index entries
With index=on, ovl_indexdir_cleanup() tries to cleanup invalid index
entries (e.g. bad index name). This behavior could result in cleaning of
entries created by newer kernels and is therefore undesirable.
Instead, abort mount if such entries are encountered. We still cleanup
'stale' entries and 'orphan' entries, both those cases can be a result
of offline changes to lower and upper dirs.

When encoutering an index entry of type directory or whiteout, kernel
was supposed to fallback to read-only mount, but the fill_super()
operation returns EROFS in this case instead of returning success with
read-only mount flag, so mount fails when encoutering directory or
whiteout index entries. Bless this behavior by returning -EINVAL on
directory and whiteout index entries as we do for all unsupported index
entries.

4edb83bb10 ovl: constant d_ino for non-merge dirs
Impure directories are ones which contain objects with origins (i.e. those
that have been copied up).  These are relevant to readdir operation only
because of the d_ino field, no other transformation is necessary.  Also a
directory can become impure between two getdents(2) calls.

This patch creates a cache for impure directories.  Unlike the cache for
merged directories, this one only contains entries with origin and is not
refcounted but has a its lifetime tied to that of the dentry.

Similarly to the merged cache, the impure cache is invalidated based on a
version number.  This version number is incremented when an entry with
origin is added or removed from the directory.

If the cache is empty, then the impure xattr is removed from the directory.

This patch also fixes up handling of d_ino for the ".." entry if the parent
directory is merged.

b5efccbe0a ovl: constant d_ino across copy up
When all layers are on the same fs, and iterating a directory which may
contain copy up entries, call vfs_getattr() on the overlay entries to make
sure that d_ino will be consistent with st_ino from stat(2).

There is an overhead of lookup per upper entry in readdir.

The overhead is minimal if the iterated entries are already in dcache.  It
is also quite useful for the common case of 'ls -l' that readdir() pre
populates the dcache with the listed entries, making the following stat()
calls faster.

61b674710c ovl: do not cleanup directory and whiteout index entries
Directory index entries are going to be used for looking up
redirected upper dirs by lower dir fh when decoding an overlay
file handle of a merge dir.

Whiteout index entries are going to be used as an indication that
an exported overlay file handle should be treated as stale (i.e.
after unlink of the overlay inode).

We don't know the verification rules for directory and whiteout
index entries, because they have not been implemented yet, so fail
to mount overlay rw if those entries are found to avoid corrupting
an index that was created by a newer kernel.

415543d5c6 ovl: cleanup bad and stale index entries on mount
Bad index entries are entries whose name does not match the
origin file handle stored in trusted.overlay.origin xattr.
Bad index entries could be a result of a system power off in
the middle of copy up.

Stale index entries are entries whose origin file handle is
stale. Stale index entries could be a result of copying layers
or removing lower entries while the overlay is not mounted.
The case of copying layers should be detected earlier by the
verification of upper root dir origin and index dir origin.

Both bad and stale index entries are detected and removed
on mount.

eea2fb4851 ovl: proper cleanup of workdir
When mounting overlayfs it needs a clean "work" directory under the
supplied workdir.

Previously the mount code removed this directory if it already existed and
created a new one.  If the removal failed (e.g. directory was not empty)
then it fell back to a read-only mount not using the workdir.

While this has never been reported, it is possible to get a non-empty
"work" dir from a previous mount of overlayfs in case of crash in the
middle of an operation using the work directory.

In this case the left over state should be discarded and the overlay
filesystem will be consistent, guaranteed by the atomicity of operations on
moving to/from the workdir to the upper layer.

This patch implements cleaning out any files left in workdir.  It is
implemented using real recursion for simplicity, but the depth is limited
to 2, because the worst case is that of a directory containing whiteouts
under "work".

3fe6e52f06 ovl: override creds with the ones from the superblock mounter
In user namespace the whiteout creation fails with -EPERM because the
current process isn't capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN) when setting xattr.

A simple reproducer:

$ mkdir upper lower work merged lower/dir
$ sudo mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=work merged
$ unshare -m -p -f -U -r bash

Now as root in the user namespace:

\# touch merged/dir/{1,2,3} # this will force a copy up of lower/dir
\# rm -fR merged/*

This ends up failing with -EPERM after the files in dir has been
correctly deleted:

unlinkat(4, "2", 0)                     = 0
unlinkat(4, "1", 0)                     = 0
unlinkat(4, "3", 0)                     = 0
close(4)                                = 0
unlinkat(AT_FDCWD, "merged/dir", AT_REMOVEDIR) = -1 EPERM (Operation not
permitted)

Interestingly, if you don't place files in merged/dir you can remove it,
meaning if upper/dir does not exist, creating the char device file works
properly in that same location.

This patch uses ovl_sb_creator_cred() to get the cred struct from the
superblock mounter and override the old cred with these new ones so that
the whiteout creation is possible because overlay is wrong in assuming that
the creds it will get with prepare_creds will be in the initial user
namespace.  The old cap_raise game is removed in favor of just overriding
the old cred struct.

This patch also drops from ovl_copy_up_one() the following two lines:

override_cred->fsuid = stat->uid;
override_cred->fsgid = stat->gid;

This is because the correct uid and gid are taken directly with the stat
struct and correctly set with ovl_set_attr().
