fs: rcu-walk for path lookup
Perform common cases of path lookups without any stores or locking in the
ancestor dentry elements. This is called rcu-walk, as opposed to the current
algorithm which is a refcount based walk, or ref-walk.
This results in far fewer atomic operations on every path element,
significantly improving path lookup performance. It also avoids cacheline
bouncing on common dentries, significantly improving scalability.
The overall design is like this:
* LOOKUP_RCU is set in nd->flags, which distinguishes rcu-walk from ref-walk.
* Take the RCU lock for the entire path walk, starting with the acquiring
of the starting path (eg. root/cwd/fd-path). So now dentry refcounts are
not required for dentry persistence.
* synchronize_rcu is called when unregistering a filesystem, so we can
access d_ops and i_ops during rcu-walk.
* Similarly take the vfsmount lock for the entire path walk. So now mnt
refcounts are not required for persistence. Also we are free to perform mount
lookups, and to assume dentry mount points and mount roots are stable up and
down the path.
* Have a per-dentry seqlock to protect the dentry name, parent, and inode,
so we can load this tuple atomically, and also check whether any of its
members have changed.
* Dentry lookups (based on parent, candidate string tuple) recheck the parent
sequence after the child is found in case anything changed in the parent
during the path walk.
* inode is also RCU protected so we can load d_inode and use the inode for
limited things.
* i_mode, i_uid, i_gid can be tested for exec permissions during path walk.
* i_op can be loaded.
When we reach the destination dentry, we lock it, recheck lookup sequence,
and increment its refcount and mountpoint refcount. RCU and vfsmount locks
are dropped. This is termed "dropping rcu-walk". If the dentry refcount does
not match, we can not drop rcu-walk gracefully at the current point in the
lokup, so instead return -ECHILD (for want of a better errno). This signals the
path walking code to re-do the entire lookup with a ref-walk.
Aside from the final dentry, there are other situations that may be encounted
where we cannot continue rcu-walk. In that case, we drop rcu-walk (ie. take
a reference on the last good dentry) and continue with a ref-walk. Again, if
we can drop rcu-walk gracefully, we return -ECHILD and do the whole lookup
using ref-walk. But it is very important that we can continue with ref-walk
for most cases, particularly to avoid the overhead of double lookups, and to
gain the scalability advantages on common path elements (like cwd and root).
The cases where rcu-walk cannot continue are:
* NULL dentry (ie. any uncached path element)
* parent with d_inode->i_op->permission or ACLs
* dentries with d_revalidate
* Following links
In future patches, permission checks and d_revalidate become rcu-walk aware. It
may be possible eventually to make following links rcu-walk aware.
Uncached path elements will always require dropping to ref-walk mode, at the
very least because i_mutex needs to be grabbed, and objects allocated.

[PATCH] shrink dentry struct
Some long time ago, dentry struct was carefully tuned so that on 32 bits
UP, sizeof(struct dentry) was exactly 128, ie a power of 2, and a multiple
of memory cache lines.
Then RCU was added and dentry struct enlarged by two pointers, with nice
results for SMP, but not so good on UP, because breaking the above tuning
(128 + 8 = 136 bytes)
This patch reverts this unwanted side effect, by using an union (d_u),
where d_rcu and d_child are placed so that these two fields can share their
memory needs.
At the time d_free() is called (and d_rcu is really used), d_child is known
to be empty and not touched by the dentry freeing.
Lockless lookups only access d_name, d_parent, d_lock, d_op, d_flags (so
the previous content of d_child is not needed if said dentry was unhashed
but still accessed by a CPU because of RCU constraints)
As dentry cache easily contains millions of entries, a size reduction is
worth the extra complexity of the ugly C union.

Add a dentry op to handle automounting rather than abusing follow_link()
Add a dentry op (d_automount) to handle automounting directories rather than
abusing the follow_link() inode operation. The operation is keyed off a new
dentry flag (DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT).
This also makes it easier to add an AT_ flag to suppress terminal segment
automount during pathwalk and removes the need for the kludge code in the
pathwalk algorithm to handle directories with follow_link() semantics.
The ->d_automount() dentry operation:
struct vfsmount *(*d_automount)(struct path *mountpoint);
takes a pointer to the directory to be mounted upon, which is expected to
provide sufficient data to determine what should be mounted. If successful, it
should return the vfsmount struct it creates (which it should also have added
to the namespace using do_add_mount() or similar). If there's a collision with
another automount attempt, NULL should be returned. If the directory specified
by the parameter should be used directly rather than being mounted upon,
-EISDIR should be returned. In any other case, an error code should be
returned.
The ->d_automount() operation is called with no locks held and may sleep. At
this point the pathwalk algorithm will be in ref-walk mode.
Within fs/namei.c itself, a new pathwalk subroutine (follow_automount()) is
added to handle mountpoints. It will return -EREMOTE if the automount flag was
set, but no d_automount() op was supplied, -ELOOP if we've encountered too many
symlinks or mountpoints, -EISDIR if the walk point should be used without
mounting and 0 if successful. The path will be updated to point to the mounted
filesystem if a successful automount took place.
__follow_mount() is replaced by follow_managed() which is more generic
(especially with the patch that adds ->d_manage()). This handles transits from
directories during pathwalk, including automounting and skipping over
mountpoints (and holding processes with the next patch).
__follow_mount_rcu() will jump out of RCU-walk mode if it encounters an
automount point with nothing mounted on it.
follow_dotdot*() does not handle automounts as you don't want to trigger them
whilst following "..".
I've also extracted the mount/don't-mount logic from autofs4 and included it
here. It makes the mount go ahead anyway if someone calls open() or creat(),
tries to traverse the directory, tries to chdir/chroot/etc. into the directory,
or sticks a '/' on the end of the pathname. If they do a stat(), however,
they'll only trigger the automount if they didn't also say O_NOFOLLOW.
I've also added an inode flag (S_AUTOMOUNT) so that filesystems can mark their
inodes as automount points. This flag is automatically propagated to the
dentry as DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT by __d_instantiate(). This saves NFS and could
save AFS a private flag bit apiece, but is not strictly necessary. It would be
preferable to do the propagation in d_set_d_op(), but that doesn't normally
have access to the inode.
[AV: fixed breakage in case if __follow_mount_rcu() fails and nameidata_drop_rcu()
succeeds in RCU case of do_lookup(); we need to fall through to non-RCU case after
that, rather than just returning with ungrabbed *path]

fix shrink_dcache_parent() livelock
Two (or more) concurrent calls of shrink_dcache_parent() on the same dentry may
cause shrink_dcache_parent() to loop forever.
Here's what appears to happen:
1 - CPU0: select_parent(P) finds C and puts it on dispose list, returns 1
2 - CPU1: select_parent(P) locks P->d_lock
3 - CPU0: shrink_dentry_list() locks C->d_lock
dentry_kill(C) tries to lock P->d_lock but fails, unlocks C->d_lock
4 - CPU1: select_parent(P) locks C->d_lock,
moves C from dispose list being processed on CPU0 to the new
dispose list, returns 1
5 - CPU0: shrink_dentry_list() finds dispose list empty, returns
6 - Goto 2 with CPU0 and CPU1 switched
Basically select_parent() steals the dentry from shrink_dentry_list() and thinks
it found a new one, causing shrink_dentry_list() to think it's making progress
and loop over and over.
One way to trigger this is to make udev calls stat() on the sysfs file while it
is going away.
Having a file in /lib/udev/rules.d/ with only this one rule seems to the trick:
ATTR{vendor}=="0x8086", ATTR{device}=="0x10ca", ENV{PCI_SLOT_NAME}="%k", ENV{MATCHADDR}="$attr{address}", RUN+="/bin/true"
Then execute the following loop:
while true; do
echo -bond0 > /sys/class/net/bonding_masters
echo +bond0 > /sys/class/net/bonding_masters
echo -bond1 > /sys/class/net/bonding_masters
echo +bond1 > /sys/class/net/bonding_masters
done
One fix would be to check all callers and prevent concurrent calls to
shrink_dcache_parent(). But I think a better solution is to stop the
stealing behavior.
This patch adds a new dentry flag that is set when the dentry is added to the
dispose list. The flag is cleared in dentry_lru_del() in case the dentry gets a
new reference just before being pruned.
If the dentry has this flag, select_parent() will skip it and let
shrink_dentry_list() retry pruning it. With select_parent() skipping those
dentries there will not be the appearance of progress (new dentries found) when
there is none, hence shrink_dcache_parent() will not loop forever.
Set the flag is also set in prune_dcache_sb() for consistency as suggested by
Linus.

Add a dentry op to handle automounting rather than abusing follow_link()
Add a dentry op (d_automount) to handle automounting directories rather than
abusing the follow_link() inode operation. The operation is keyed off a new
dentry flag (DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT).
This also makes it easier to add an AT_ flag to suppress terminal segment
automount during pathwalk and removes the need for the kludge code in the
pathwalk algorithm to handle directories with follow_link() semantics.
The ->d_automount() dentry operation:
struct vfsmount *(*d_automount)(struct path *mountpoint);
takes a pointer to the directory to be mounted upon, which is expected to
provide sufficient data to determine what should be mounted. If successful, it
should return the vfsmount struct it creates (which it should also have added
to the namespace using do_add_mount() or similar). If there's a collision with
another automount attempt, NULL should be returned. If the directory specified
by the parameter should be used directly rather than being mounted upon,
-EISDIR should be returned. In any other case, an error code should be
returned.
The ->d_automount() operation is called with no locks held and may sleep. At
this point the pathwalk algorithm will be in ref-walk mode.
Within fs/namei.c itself, a new pathwalk subroutine (follow_automount()) is
added to handle mountpoints. It will return -EREMOTE if the automount flag was
set, but no d_automount() op was supplied, -ELOOP if we've encountered too many
symlinks or mountpoints, -EISDIR if the walk point should be used without
mounting and 0 if successful. The path will be updated to point to the mounted
filesystem if a successful automount took place.
__follow_mount() is replaced by follow_managed() which is more generic
(especially with the patch that adds ->d_manage()). This handles transits from
directories during pathwalk, including automounting and skipping over
mountpoints (and holding processes with the next patch).
__follow_mount_rcu() will jump out of RCU-walk mode if it encounters an
automount point with nothing mounted on it.
follow_dotdot*() does not handle automounts as you don't want to trigger them
whilst following "..".
I've also extracted the mount/don't-mount logic from autofs4 and included it
here. It makes the mount go ahead anyway if someone calls open() or creat(),
tries to traverse the directory, tries to chdir/chroot/etc. into the directory,
or sticks a '/' on the end of the pathname. If they do a stat(), however,
they'll only trigger the automount if they didn't also say O_NOFOLLOW.
I've also added an inode flag (S_AUTOMOUNT) so that filesystems can mark their
inodes as automount points. This flag is automatically propagated to the
dentry as DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT by __d_instantiate(). This saves NFS and could
save AFS a private flag bit apiece, but is not strictly necessary. It would be
preferable to do the propagation in d_set_d_op(), but that doesn't normally
have access to the inode.
[AV: fixed breakage in case if __follow_mount_rcu() fails and nameidata_drop_rcu()
succeeds in RCU case of do_lookup(); we need to fall through to non-RCU case after
that, rather than just returning with ungrabbed *path]

Add a dentry op to allow processes to be held during pathwalk transit
Add a dentry op (d_manage) to permit a filesystem to hold a process and make it
sleep when it tries to transit away from one of that filesystem's directories
during a pathwalk. The operation is keyed off a new dentry flag
(DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT).
The filesystem is allowed to be selective about which processes it holds and
which it permits to continue on or prohibits from transiting from each flagged
directory. This will allow autofs to hold up client processes whilst letting
its userspace daemon through to maintain the directory or the stuff behind it
or mounted upon it.
The ->d_manage() dentry operation:
int (*d_manage)(struct path *path, bool mounting_here);
takes a pointer to the directory about to be transited away from and a flag
indicating whether the transit is undertaken by do_add_mount() or
do_move_mount() skipping through a pile of filesystems mounted on a mountpoint.
It should return 0 if successful and to let the process continue on its way;
-EISDIR to prohibit the caller from skipping to overmounted filesystems or
automounting, and to use this directory; or some other error code to return to
the user.
->d_manage() is called with namespace_sem writelocked if mounting_here is true
and no other locks held, so it may sleep. However, if mounting_here is true,
it may not initiate or wait for a mount or unmount upon the parameter
directory, even if the act is actually performed by userspace.
Within fs/namei.c, follow_managed() is extended to check with d_manage() first
on each managed directory, before transiting away from it or attempting to
automount upon it.
follow_down() is renamed follow_down_one() and should only be used where the
filesystem deliberately intends to avoid management steps (e.g. autofs).
A new follow_down() is added that incorporates the loop done by all other
callers of follow_down() (do_add/move_mount(), autofs and NFSD; whilst AFS, NFS
and CIFS do use it, their use is removed by converting them to use
d_automount()). The new follow_down() calls d_manage() as appropriate. It
also takes an extra parameter to indicate if it is being called from mount code
(with namespace_sem writelocked) which it passes to d_manage(). follow_down()
ignores automount points so that it can be used to mount on them.
__follow_mount_rcu() is made to abort rcu-walk mode if it hits a directory with
DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT set on the basis that we're probably going to have to
sleep. It would be possible to enter d_manage() in rcu-walk mode too, and have
that determine whether to abort or not itself. That would allow the autofs
daemon to continue on in rcu-walk mode.
Note that DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT on a directory should be cleared when it isn't
required as every tranist from that directory will cause d_manage() to be
invoked. It can always be set again when necessary.
==========================
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR AUTOFS
==========================
Autofs currently uses the lookup() inode op and the d_revalidate() dentry op to
trigger the automounting of indirect mounts, and both of these can be called
with i_mutex held.
autofs knows that the i_mutex will be held by the caller in lookup(), and so
can drop it before invoking the daemon - but this isn't so for d_revalidate(),
since the lock is only held on _some_ of the code paths that call it. This
means that autofs can't risk dropping i_mutex from its d_revalidate() function
before it calls the daemon.
The bug could manifest itself as, for example, a process that's trying to
validate an automount dentry that gets made to wait because that dentry is
expired and needs cleaning up:
mkdir S ffffffff8014e05a 0 32580 24956
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff885371fd>] :autofs4:autofs4_wait+0x674/0x897

[<ffffffff80057a2f>] lookup_create+0x46/0x80
[<ffffffff800e6e31>] sys_mkdirat+0x56/0xe4
versus the automount daemon which wants to remove that dentry, but can't
because the normal process is holding the i_mutex lock:
automount D ffffffff8014e05a 0 32581 1 32561
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff80063c3f>] __mutex_lock_slowpath+0x60/0x9b

[<ffffffff8005d229>] tracesys+0x71/0xe0
[<ffffffff8005d28d>] tracesys+0xd5/0xe0
which means that the system is deadlocked.
This patch allows autofs to hold up normal processes whilst the daemon goes
ahead and does things to the dentry tree behind the automouter point without
risking a deadlock as almost no locks are held in d_manage() and none in
d_automount().

added to handle mountpoints. It will return -EREMOTE if the automount flag was
set, but no d_automount() op was supplied, -ELOOP if we've encountered too many
symlinks or mountpoints, -EISDIR if the walk point should be used without
mounting and 0 if successful. The path will be updated to point to the mounted
filesystem if a successful automount took place.
__follow_mount() is replaced by follow_managed() which is more generic
(especially with the patch that adds ->d_manage()). This handles transits from
directories during pathwalk, including automounting and skipping over
mountpoints (and holding processes with the next patch).
__follow_mount_rcu() will jump out of RCU-walk mode if it encounters an
automount point with nothing mounted on it.
follow_dotdot*() does not handle automounts as you don't want to trigger them
whilst following "..".
I've also extracted the mount/don't-mount logic from autofs4 and included it
here. It makes the mount go ahead anyway if someone calls open() or creat(),
tries to traverse the directory, tries to chdir/chroot/etc. into the directory,
or sticks a '/' on the end of the pathname. If they do a stat(), however,
they'll only trigger the automount if they didn't also say O_NOFOLLOW.
I've also added an inode flag (S_AUTOMOUNT) so that filesystems can mark their
inodes as automount points. This flag is automatically propagated to the
dentry as DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT by __d_instantiate(). This saves NFS and could
save AFS a private flag bit apiece, but is not strictly necessary. It would be
preferable to do the propagation in d_set_d_op(), but that doesn't normally
have access to the inode.
[AV: fixed breakage in case if __follow_mount_rcu() fails and nameidata_drop_rcu()
succeeds in RCU case of do_lookup(); we need to fall through to non-RCU case after
that, rather than just returning with ungrabbed *path]

[PATCH] audit: watching subtrees
New kind of audit rule predicates: "object is visible in given subtree".
The part that can be sanely implemented, that is. Limitations:
* if you have hardlink from outside of tree, you'd better watch
it too (or just watch the object itself, obviously)
* if you mount something under a watched tree, tell audit
that new chunk should be added to watched subtrees
* if you umount something in a watched tree and it's still mounted
elsewhere, you will get matches on events happening there. New command
tells audit to recalculate the trees, trimming such sources of false
positives.
Note that it's _not_ about path - if something mounted in several places
(multiple mount, bindings, different namespaces, etc.), the match does
_not_ depend on which one we are using for access.

fs: rcu-walk for path lookup
Perform common cases of path lookups without any stores or locking in the
ancestor dentry elements. This is called rcu-walk, as opposed to the current
algorithm which is a refcount based walk, or ref-walk.
This results in far fewer atomic operations on every path element,
significantly improving path lookup performance. It also avoids cacheline
bouncing on common dentries, significantly improving scalability.
The overall design is like this:
* LOOKUP_RCU is set in nd->flags, which distinguishes rcu-walk from ref-walk.
* Take the RCU lock for the entire path walk, starting with the acquiring
of the starting path (eg. root/cwd/fd-path). So now dentry refcounts are
not required for dentry persistence.
* synchronize_rcu is called when unregistering a filesystem, so we can
access d_ops and i_ops during rcu-walk.
* Similarly take the vfsmount lock for the entire path walk. So now mnt
refcounts are not required for persistence. Also we are free to perform mount
lookups, and to assume dentry mount points and mount roots are stable up and
down the path.
* Have a per-dentry seqlock to protect the dentry name, parent, and inode,
so we can load this tuple atomically, and also check whether any of its
members have changed.
* Dentry lookups (based on parent, candidate string tuple) recheck the parent
sequence after the child is found in case anything changed in the parent
during the path walk.
* inode is also RCU protected so we can load d_inode and use the inode for
limited things.
* i_mode, i_uid, i_gid can be tested for exec permissions during path walk.
* i_op can be loaded.
When we reach the destination dentry, we lock it, recheck lookup sequence,
and increment its refcount and mountpoint refcount. RCU and vfsmount locks
are dropped. This is termed "dropping rcu-walk". If the dentry refcount does
not match, we can not drop rcu-walk gracefully at the current point in the
lokup, so instead return -ECHILD (for want of a better errno). This signals the
path walking code to re-do the entire lookup with a ref-walk.
Aside from the final dentry, there are other situations that may be encounted
where we cannot continue rcu-walk. In that case, we drop rcu-walk (ie. take
a reference on the last good dentry) and continue with a ref-walk. Again, if
we can drop rcu-walk gracefully, we return -ECHILD and do the whole lookup
using ref-walk. But it is very important that we can continue with ref-walk
for most cases, particularly to avoid the overhead of double lookups, and to
gain the scalability advantages on common path elements (like cwd and root).
The cases where rcu-walk cannot continue are:
* NULL dentry (ie. any uncached path element)
* parent with d_inode->i_op->permission or ACLs
* dentries with d_revalidate
* Following links
In future patches, permission checks and d_revalidate become rcu-walk aware. It
may be possible eventually to make following links rcu-walk aware.
Uncached path elements will always require dropping to ref-walk mode, at the
very least because i_mutex needs to be grabbed, and objects allocated.

fix apparmor dereferencing potentially freed dentry, sanitize __d_path() API
__d_path() API is asking for trouble and in case of apparmor d_namespace_path()
getting just that. The root cause is that when __d_path() misses the root
it had been told to look for, it stores the location of the most remote ancestor
in *root. Without grabbing references. Sure, at the moment of call it had
been pinned down by what we have in *path. And if we raced with umount -l, we
could have very well stopped at vfsmount/dentry that got freed as soon as
prepend_path() dropped vfsmount_lock.
It is safe to compare these pointers with pre-existing (and known to be still
alive) vfsmount and dentry, as long as all we are asking is "is it the same
address?". Dereferencing is not safe and apparmor ended up stepping into
that. d_namespace_path() really wants to examine the place where we stopped,
even if it's not connected to our namespace. As the result, it looked
at ->d_sb->s_magic of a dentry that might've been already freed by that point.
All other callers had been careful enough to avoid that, but it's really
a bad interface - it invites that kind of trouble.
The fix is fairly straightforward, even though it's bigger than I'd like:
* prepend_path() root argument becomes const.
* __d_path() is never called with NULL/NULL root. It was a kludge
to start with. Instead, we have an explicit function - d_absolute_root().
Same as __d_path(), except that it doesn't get root passed and stops where
it stops. apparmor and tomoyo are using it.
* __d_path() returns NULL on path outside of root. The main
caller is show_mountinfo() and that's precisely what we pass root for - to
skip those outside chroot jail. Those who don't want that can (and do)
use d_path().
* __d_path() root argument becomes const. Everyone agrees, I hope.
* apparmor does *NOT* try to use __d_path() or any of its variants
when it sees that path->mnt is an internal vfsmount. In that case it's
definitely not mounted anywhere and dentry_path() is exactly what we want
there. Handling of sysctl()-triggered weirdness is moved to that place.
* if apparmor is asked to do pathname relative to chroot jail
and __d_path() tells it we it's not in that jail, the sucker just calls
d_absolute_path() instead. That's the other remaining caller of __d_path(),
BTW.
* seq_path_root() does _NOT_ return -ENAMETOOLONG (it's stupid anyway -
the normal seq_file logics will take care of growing the buffer and redoing
the call of ->show() just fine). However, if it gets path not reachable
from root, it returns SEQ_SKIP. The only caller adjusted (i.e. stopped
ignoring the return value as it used to do).

vfs: get rid of insane dentry hashing rules
The dentry hashing rules have been really quite complicated for a long
while, in odd ways. That made functions like __d_drop() very fragile
and non-obvious.
In particular, whether a dentry was hashed or not was indicated with an
explicit DCACHE_UNHASHED bit. That's despite the fact that the hash
abstraction that the dentries use actually have a 'is this entry hashed
or not' model (which is a simple test of the 'pprev' pointer).
The reason that was done is because we used the normal 'is this entry
unhashed' model to mark whether the dentry had _ever_ been hashed in the
dentry hash tables, and that logic goes back many years (commit
b3423415fbc2: "dcache: avoid RCU for never-hashed dentries").
That, in turn, meant that __d_drop had totally different unhashing logic
for the dentry hash table case and for the anonymous dcache case,
because in order to use the "is this dentry hashed" logic as a flag for
whether it had ever been on the RCU hash table, we had to unhash such a
dentry differently so that we'd never think that it wasn't 'unhashed'
and wouldn't be free'd correctly.
That's just insane. It made the logic really hard to follow, when there
were two different kinds of "unhashed" states, and one of them (the one
that used "list_bl_unhashed()") really had nothing at all to do with
being unhashed per se, but with a very subtle lifetime rule instead.
So turn all of it around, and make it logical.
Instead of having a DENTRY_UNHASHED bit in d_flags to indicate whether
the dentry is on the hash chains or not, use the hash chain unhashed
logic for that. Suddenly "d_unhashed()" just uses "list_bl_unhashed()",
and everything makes sense.
And for the lifetime rule, just use an explicit DENTRY_RCUACCEES bit.
If we ever insert the dentry into the dentry hash table so that it is
visible to RCU lookup, we mark it DENTRY_RCUACCESS to show that it now
needs the RCU lifetime rules. Now suddently that test at dentry free
time makes sense too.
And because unhashing now is sane and doesn't depend on where the dentry
got unhashed from (because the dentry hash chain details doesn't have
some subtle side effects), we can re-unify the __d_drop() logic and use
common code for the unhashing.
Also fix one more open-coded hash chain bit_spin_lock() that I missed in
the previous chain locking cleanup commit.

Add a dentry op to allow processes to be held during pathwalk transit
Add a dentry op (d_manage) to permit a filesystem to hold a process and make it
sleep when it tries to transit away from one of that filesystem's directories
during a pathwalk. The operation is keyed off a new dentry flag
(DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT).
The filesystem is allowed to be selective about which processes it holds and
which it permits to continue on or prohibits from transiting from each flagged
directory. This will allow autofs to hold up client processes whilst letting
its userspace daemon through to maintain the directory or the stuff behind it
or mounted upon it.
The ->d_manage() dentry operation:
int (*d_manage)(struct path *path, bool mounting_here);
takes a pointer to the directory about to be transited away from and a flag
indicating whether the transit is undertaken by do_add_mount() or
do_move_mount() skipping through a pile of filesystems mounted on a mountpoint.
It should return 0 if successful and to let the process continue on its way;
-EISDIR to prohibit the caller from skipping to overmounted filesystems or
automounting, and to use this directory; or some other error code to return to
the user.
->d_manage() is called with namespace_sem writelocked if mounting_here is true
and no other locks held, so it may sleep. However, if mounting_here is true,
it may not initiate or wait for a mount or unmount upon the parameter
directory, even if the act is actually performed by userspace.
Within fs/namei.c, follow_managed() is extended to check with d_manage() first
on each managed directory, before transiting away from it or attempting to
automount upon it.
follow_down() is renamed follow_down_one() and should only be used where the
filesystem deliberately intends to avoid management steps (e.g. autofs).
A new follow_down() is added that incorporates the loop done by all other
callers of follow_down() (do_add/move_mount(), autofs and NFSD; whilst AFS, NFS
and CIFS do use it, their use is removed by converting them to use
d_automount()). The new follow_down() calls d_manage() as appropriate. It
also takes an extra parameter to indicate if it is being called from mount code
(with namespace_sem writelocked) which it passes to d_manage(). follow_down()
ignores automount points so that it can be used to mount on them.
__follow_mount_rcu() is made to abort rcu-walk mode if it hits a directory with
DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT set on the basis that we're probably going to have to
sleep. It would be possible to enter d_manage() in rcu-walk mode too, and have
that determine whether to abort or not itself. That would allow the autofs
daemon to continue on in rcu-walk mode.
Note that DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT on a directory should be cleared when it isn't
required as every tranist from that directory will cause d_manage() to be
invoked. It can always be set again when necessary.
==========================
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR AUTOFS
==========================
Autofs currently uses the lookup() inode op and the d_revalidate() dentry op to
trigger the automounting of indirect mounts, and both of these can be called
with i_mutex held.
autofs knows that the i_mutex will be held by the caller in lookup(), and so
can drop it before invoking the daemon - but this isn't so for d_revalidate(),
since the lock is only held on _some_ of the code paths that call it. This
means that autofs can't risk dropping i_mutex from its d_revalidate() function
before it calls the daemon.
The bug could manifest itself as, for example, a process that's trying to
validate an automount dentry that gets made to wait because that dentry is
expired and needs cleaning up:
mkdir S ffffffff8014e05a 0 32580 24956
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff885371fd>] :autofs4:autofs4_wait+0x674/0x897
[<ffffffff80127f7d>] avc_has_perm+0x46/0x58
[<ffffffff8009fdcf>] autoremove_wake_function+0x0/0x2e
[<ffffffff88537be6>] :autofs4:autofs4_expire_wait+0x41/0x6b

[<ffffffff80057a2f>] lookup_create+0x46/0x80
[<ffffffff800e6e31>] sys_mkdirat+0x56/0xe4
versus the automount daemon which wants to remove that dentry, but can't
because the normal process is holding the i_mutex lock:
automount D ffffffff8014e05a 0 32581 1 32561
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff80063c3f>] __mutex_lock_slowpath+0x60/0x9b
[<ffffffff8000ccf1>] do_path_lookup+0x2ca/0x2f1
[<ffffffff80063c89>] .text.lock.mutex+0xf/0x14

[<ffffffff8005d229>] tracesys+0x71/0xe0
[<ffffffff8005d28d>] tracesys+0xd5/0xe0
which means that the system is deadlocked.
This patch allows autofs to hold up normal processes whilst the daemon goes
ahead and does things to the dentry tree behind the automouter point without
risking a deadlock as almost no locks are held in d_manage() and none in
d_automount().
