If shrink_dcache_tree() finds a dentry in the middle of being killed
by another thread, it has to wait until the victim finishes dying,
gets detached from the tree and ceases to pin its parent.
The way we used to deal with that amounted to busy-wait; unfortunately,
it's not just inefficient but can lead to reliably reproducible hard
livelocks.
Solved by having shrink_dentry_tree() attach a completion to such dentry,
with dentry_unlist() calling complete() on all objects attached to it.
With a bit of care it can be done without growing struct dentry or adding
overhead in normal case.

Most of the places using d_alias are loops iterating through all aliases for
given inode; introduce a helper macro (for_each_alias(dentry, inode))
and convert open-coded instances of such loop to it.
They are easier to read that way and it reduces the noise on the next steps.
You _must_ hold inode->i_lock over that thing.

On 32-bit architectures, unsigned long is only 32 bits wide, which
causes 64-bit inode numbers to be silently truncated. Several
filesystems (NFS, XFS, BTRFS, etc.) can generate inode numbers that
exceed 32 bits, and this truncation can lead to inode number collisions
and other subtle bugs on 32-bit systems.
Change the type of inode->i_ino from unsigned long to u64 to ensure that
inode numbers are always represented as 64-bit values regardless of
architecture. Update all format specifiers treewide from %lu/%lx to
%llu/%llx to match the new type, along with corresponding local variable
types.
This is the bulk treewide conversion. Earlier patches in this series
handled trace events separately to allow trace field reordering for
better struct packing on 32-bit.

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Commit 580f236737 ("NFS: Adjust the amount of readahead
performed by NFS readdir") reduces the amount of readahead names
caching done by the client.
The downside of this approach is READDIR now may suffer from
a slow-start issue, where initially it will fetch names that fit
in a single page, then in 2, 4, 8 until the maximum supported
transfer size (usually 1M).
This patch tries to take a balanced approach between mitigating
the slow-start issue still maintaining some efficiency gains.

The Linux client assumes that all filehandles are non-volatile for
renames within the same directory (otherwise sillyrename cannot work).
However, the existence of the Linux 'subtree_check' export option has
meant that nfs_rename() has always assumed it needs to flush writes
before attempting to rename.
Since NFSv4 does allow the client to query whether or not the server
exhibits this behaviour, and since knfsd does actually set the
appropriate flag when 'subtree_check' is enabled on an export, it
should be OK to optimise away the write flushing behaviour in the cases
where it is clearly not needed.

mkdir now allows a different dentry to be returned which is sometimes
relevant for nfs.
This patch changes the nfs_rpc_ops mkdir op to return a dentry, and
passes that back to the caller.
The mkdir nfs_rpc_op will return NULL if the original dentry should be
used. This matches the mkdir inode_operation.
nfs4_do_create() is duplicated to nfs4_do_mkdir() which is changed to
handle the specifics of directories. Consequently the current special
handling for directories is removed from nfs4_do_create()

Some filesystems, such as NFS, cifs, ceph, and fuse, do not have
complete control of sequencing on the actual filesystem (e.g. on a
different server) and may find that the inode created for a mkdir
request already exists in the icache and dcache by the time the mkdir
request returns. For example, if the filesystem is mounted twice the
directory could be visible on the other mount before it is on the
original mount, and a pair of name_to_handle_at(), open_by_handle_at()
calls could instantiate the directory inode with an IS_ROOT() dentry
before the first mkdir returns.
This means that the dentry passed to ->mkdir() may not be the one that
is associated with the inode after the ->mkdir() completes. Some
callers need to interact with the inode after the ->mkdir completes and
they currently need to perform a lookup in the (rare) case that the
dentry is no longer hashed.
This lookup-after-mkdir requires that the directory remains locked to
avoid races. Planned future patches to lock the dentry rather than the
directory will mean that this lookup cannot be performed atomically with
the mkdir.
To remove this barrier, this patch changes ->mkdir to return the
resulting dentry if it is different from the one passed in.
Possible returns are:
NULL - the directory was created and no other dentry was used
ERR_PTR() - an error occurred
non-NULL - this other dentry was spliced in
This patch only changes file-systems to return "ERR_PTR(err)" instead of
"err" or equivalent transformations. Subsequent patches will make
further changes to some file-systems to return a correct dentry.
Not all filesystems reliably result in a positive hashed dentry:
- NFS, cifs, hostfs will sometimes need to perform a lookup of
the name to get inode information. Races could result in this
returning something different. Note that this lookup is
non-atomic which is what we are trying to avoid. Placing the
lookup in filesystem code means it only happens when the filesystem
has no other option.
- kernfs and tracefs leave the dentry negative and the ->revalidate
operation ensures that lookup will be called to correctly populate
the dentry. This could be fixed but I don't think it is important
to any of the users of vfs_mkdir() which look at the dentry.
The recommendation to use
d_drop();d_splice_alias()
is ugly but fits with current practice. A planned future patch will
change this.

Callers of lookup_one_qstr_excl() often check if the result is negative or
positive.
These changes can easily be moved into lookup_one_qstr_excl() by checking the
lookup flags:
LOOKUP_CREATE means it is NOT an error if the name doesn't exist.
LOOKUP_EXCL means it IS an error if the name DOES exist.
This patch adds these checks, then removes error checks from callers,
and ensures that appropriate flags are passed.
This subtly changes the meaning of LOOKUP_EXCL. Previously it could
only accompany LOOKUP_CREATE. Now it can accompany LOOKUP_RENAME_TARGET
as well. A couple of small changes are needed to accommodate this. The
NFS change is functionally a no-op but ensures nfs_is_exclusive_create() does
exactly what the name says.

Pass the stable name all the way down to ->rpc_ops->lookup() instances.
Note that passing &dentry->d_name is safe in e.g. nfs_lookup() - it *is*
stable there, as it is in ->create() et.al.
dget_parent() in nfs_instantiate() should be redundant - it'd better be
stable there; if it's not, we have more trouble, since ->d_name would
also be unsafe in such case.
nfs_submount() and nfs4_submount() may or may not require fixes - if
they ever get moved on server with fhandle preserved, we are in trouble
there...

we can't kill __nfs_lookup_revalidate() completely, but ->d_parent boilerplate

Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@kernel.org>
Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
->d_revalidate() often needs to access dentry parent and name; that has
to be done carefully, since the locking environment varies from caller
to caller. We are not guaranteed that dentry in question will not be
moved right under us - not unless the filesystem is such that nothing
on it ever gets renamed.
It can be dealt with, but that results in boilerplate code that isn't
even needed - the callers normally have just found the dentry via dcache
lookup and want to verify that it's in the right place; they already
have the values of ->d_parent and ->d_name stable. There is a couple
of exceptions (overlayfs and, to less extent, ecryptfs), but for the
majority of calls that song and dance is not needed at all.
It's easier to make ecryptfs and overlayfs find and pass those values if
there's a ->d_revalidate() instance to be called, rather than doing that
in the instances.
This commit only changes the calling conventions; making use of supplied
values is left to followups.
NOTE: some instances need more than just the parent - things like CIFS
may need to build an entire path from filesystem root, so they need
more precautions than the usual boilerplate. This series doesn't
do anything to that need - these filesystems have to keep their locking
mechanisms (rename_lock loops, use of dentry_path_raw(), private rwsem
a-la v9fs).
One thing to keep in mind when using name is that name->name will normally
point into the pathname being resolved; the filename in question occupies
name->len bytes starting at name->name, and there is NUL somewhere after it,
but it the next byte might very well be '/' rather than '\0'. Do not
ignore name->len.

dentry->d_fsdata is set to NFS_FSDATA_BLOCKED while unlinking or
renaming-over a file to ensure that no open succeeds while the NFS
operation progressed on the server.
Setting dentry->d_fsdata to NFS_FSDATA_BLOCKED is done under ->d_lock
after checking the refcount is not elevated. Any attempt to open the
file (through that name) will go through lookp_open() which will take
->d_lock while incrementing the refcount, we can be sure that once the
new value is set, __nfs_lookup_revalidate() *will* see the new value and
will block.
We don't have any locking guarantee that when we set ->d_fsdata to NULL,
the wait_var_event() in __nfs_lookup_revalidate() will notice.
wait/wake primitives do NOT provide barriers to guarantee order. We
must use smp_load_acquire() in wait_var_event() to ensure we look at an
up-to-date value, and must use smp_store_release() before wake_up_var().
This patch adds those barrier functions and factors out
block_revalidate() and unblock_revalidate() far clarity.
There is also a hypothetical bug in that if memory allocation fails
(which never happens in practice) we might leave ->d_fsdata locked.
This patch adds the missing call to unblock_revalidate().

This is a slight variation on a patch previously proposed by Neil Brown
that never got merged.
Prior to commit 5ceb9d7fda ("NFS: Refactor nfs_lookup_revalidate()"),
any error from nfs_lookup_verify_inode() other than -ESTALE would result
in nfs_lookup_revalidate() returning that error (-ESTALE is mapped to
zero).
Since that commit, all errors result in nfs_lookup_revalidate()
returning zero, resulting in dentries being invalidated where they
previously were not (particularly in the case of -ERESTARTSYS).
Fix it by passing the actual error code to nfs_lookup_revalidate_done(),
and leaving the decision on whether to map the error code to zero or
one to nfs_lookup_revalidate_done().
A simple reproducer is to run the following python code in a
subdirectory of an NFS mount (not in the root of the NFS mount):
---8<---
import os
import multiprocessing
import time
if __name__=="__main__":
multiprocessing.set_start_method("spawn")
count = 0
while True:
try:
os.getcwd()
pool = multiprocessing.Pool(10)
pool.close()
pool.terminate()
count += 1
except Exception as e:
print(f"Failed after {count} iterations")
print(e)
break

With two clients, each with NFSv3 mounts of the same directory, the sequence:
client1 client2
ls -l afile
echo hello there > afile
echo HELLO > afile
cat afile
will show
HELLO
there
because the O_TRUNC requested in the final 'echo' doesn't take effect.
This is because the "Negative dentry, just create a file" section in
lookup_open() assumes that the file *does* get created since the dentry
was negative, so it sets FMODE_CREATED, and this causes do_open() to
clear O_TRUNC and so the file doesn't get truncated.
Even mounting with -o lookupcache=none does not help as
nfs_neg_need_reval() always returns false if LOOKUP_CREATE is set.
This patch fixes the problem by providing an atomic_open inode operation
for NFSv3 (and v2). The code is largely the code from the branch in
lookup_open() when atomic_open is not provided. The significant change
is that the O_TRUNC flag is passed a new nfs_do_create() which add
'trunc' handling to nfs_create().
With this change we also optimise away an unnecessary LOOKUP before the
file is created.

nfs_set_verifier() relies upon dentry being pinned; if that's
the case, grabbing ->d_lock stabilizes ->d_parent and guarantees
that ->d_parent points to a positive dentry. For something
we'd run into in RCU mode that is *not* true - dentry might've
been through dentry_kill() just as we grabbed ->d_lock, with
its parent going through the same just as we get to into
nfs_set_verifier_locked(). It might get to detaching inode
(and zeroing ->d_inode) before nfs_set_verifier_locked() gets
to fetching that; we get an oops as the result.
That can happen in nfs{,4} ->d_revalidate(); the call chain in
question is nfs_set_verifier_locked() <- nfs_set_verifier() <-
nfs_lookup_revalidate_delegated() <- nfs{,4}_do_lookup_revalidate().
We have checked that the parent had been positive, but that's
done before we get to nfs_set_verifier() and it's possible for
memory pressure to pick our dentry as eviction candidate by that
time. If that happens, back-to-back attempts to kill dentry and
its parent are quite normal. Sure, in case of eviction we'll
fail the ->d_seq check in the caller, but we need to survive
until we return there...

nfs_readdir_folio_array_append().
kmap_atomic() disables page-faults and preemption (the latter only for
!PREEMPT_RT kernels), However, the code within the mapping/un-mapping in
nfs_readdir_folio_array_append() does not depend on the above-mentioned
side effects.
Therefore, a mere replacement of the old API with the new one is all that
is required (i.e., there is no need to explicitly add any calls to
pagefault_disable() and/or preempt_disable()).
Tested with (x)fstests in a QEMU/KVM x86_32 VM, 6GB RAM, booting a kernel
with HIGHMEM64GB enabled.

Dan has been improving on the smatch error pointer checks, and pointed
at another case where the __filemap_get_folio() conversion to error
pointers had been overlooked. This time because it was hidden behind
the filemap_grab_folio() helper function that is a wrapper around it.

Fix another case of an incorrect check for the returned 'folio' value
from __filemap_get_folio().
The failure case used to return NULL, but was changed by commit
66dabbb65d ("mm: return an ERR_PTR from __filemap_get_folio").
But in the meantime, commit ec108d3cc7 ("NFS: Convert readdir page
array functions to use a folio") added a new user of that function.
And my merge of the two did not fix this up correctly.
The ext4 merge had the same issue, but that one had been caught in
linux-next and got properly fixed while merging.

This patch only converts the actual array, but doesn't touch the
individual nfs_cache_array pages and related functions (that will be
done in the next patch).
I also adjust the names of the fields in the nfs_readdir_descriptor to
say "folio" instead of "page".

When the user's login time is newer than the cache's timestamp,
the original entry in the RB-tree will be replaced by a new entry.
Currently, the timestamp is only set if the entry is not found in
the RB-tree, which can cause the timestamp to be undefined when
the entry exists. This may result in a significant increase in
ACCESS operations if the timestamp is set to zero.

Merge tag 'fs.idmapped.v6.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/idmapping
Pull vfs idmapping updates from Christian Brauner:
- Last cycle we introduced the dedicated struct mnt_idmap type for
mount idmapping and the required infrastucture in 256c8aed2b ("fs:
introduce dedicated idmap type for mounts"). As promised in last
cycle's pull request message this converts everything to rely on
struct mnt_idmap.
Currently we still pass around the plain namespace that was attached
to a mount. This is in general pretty convenient but it makes it easy
to conflate namespaces that are relevant on the filesystem with
namespaces that are relevant on the mount level. Especially for
non-vfs developers without detailed knowledge in this area this was a
potential source for bugs.
This finishes the conversion. Instead of passing the plain namespace
around this updates all places that currently take a pointer to a
mnt_userns with a pointer to struct mnt_idmap.
Now that the conversion is done all helpers down to the really
low-level helpers only accept a struct mnt_idmap argument instead of
two namespace arguments.
Conflating mount and other idmappings will now cause the compiler to
complain loudly thus eliminating the possibility of any bugs. This
makes it impossible for filesystem developers to mix up mount and
filesystem idmappings as they are two distinct types and require
distinct helpers that cannot be used interchangeably.
Everything associated with struct mnt_idmap is moved into a single
separate file. With that change no code can poke around in struct
mnt_idmap. It can only be interacted with through dedicated helpers.
That means all filesystems are and all of the vfs is completely
oblivious to the actual implementation of idmappings.
We are now also able to extend struct mnt_idmap as we see fit. For
example, we can decouple it completely from namespaces for users that
don't require or don't want to use them at all. We can also extend
the concept of idmappings so we can cover filesystem specific
requirements.
In combination with the vfs{g,u}id_t work we finished in v6.2 this
makes this feature substantially more robust and thus difficult to
implement wrong by a given filesystem and also protects the vfs.
- Enable idmapped mounts for tmpfs and fulfill a longstanding request.
A long-standing request from users had been to make it possible to
create idmapped mounts for tmpfs. For example, to share the host's
tmpfs mount between multiple sandboxes. This is a prerequisite for
some advanced Kubernetes cases. Systemd also has a range of use-cases
to increase service isolation. And there are more users of this.
However, with all of the other work going on this was way down on the
priority list but luckily someone other than ourselves picked this
up.
As usual the patch is tiny as all the infrastructure work had been
done multiple kernel releases ago. In addition to all the tests that
we already have I requested that Rodrigo add a dedicated tmpfs
testsuite for idmapped mounts to xfstests. It is to be included into
xfstests during the v6.3 development cycle. This should add a slew of
additional tests.

kmap_atomic() is deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page().
With kmap_local_page() the mappings are per thread, CPU local, can take
page-faults, and can be called from any context (including interrupts).
Furthermore, the tasks can be preempted and, when they are scheduled to
run again, the kernel virtual addresses are restored and still valid.
kmap_atomic() is implemented like a kmap_local_page() which also disables
page-faults and preemption (the latter only for !PREEMPT_RT kernels,
otherwise it only disables migration).
The code within the mappings/un-mappings in the functions of dir.c don't
depend on the above-mentioned side effects of kmap_atomic(), so that mere
replacements of the old API with the new one is all that is required
(i.e., there is no need to explicitly add calls to pagefault_disable()
and/or preempt_disable()).
Therefore, replace kmap_atomic() with kmap_local_page() in fs/nfs/dir.c.
Tested in a QEMU/KVM x86_32 VM, 6GB RAM, booting a kernel with
HIGHMEM64GB enabled.
