Merge tag 'vfs-7.3-rc1.super' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull vfs superblock updates from Christian Brauner:
- Make it possible to share a block device between multiple
filesystems.
erofs can mount read-only blob devices shared between many
superblocks, but because we only tracked a single superblock a
freeze, thaw, removal or sync on such a device was never propagated
to all the superblocks using it, and there was no way to find them.
Add an efficient table to lookup all superblocks using a given block
device.
- A bunch of pre-existing fixes fell out of this work:
A block-device freeze racing a btrfs device change could leave the
whole filesystem stuck frozen. A bdev_freeze() issued by "dmsetup
suspend" or an LVM snapshot resolves that holder to freeze the
filesystem. and bdev_thaw() resolves it again to thaw. A freeze
landing while btrfs is adding, removing or replacing a device freezes
the filesystem. The membership change then drops that link. So the
matching thaw could no longer find the superblock.
Forbid freezing a device for the duration of a membership change,
modelled on deny_write_access()/allow_write_access().

Add a regression test for the fsuidgid_has_mapping() check in
vfs_tmpfile(). It idmaps a detached tmpfs mount so that the
caller-visible id range [0, 10000) maps onto the on-disk range
[10000, 20000) and checks that:
- a caller whose fsuid/fsgid fall outside that range cannot create an
O_TMPFILE through the mount and gets -EOVERFLOW instead of an inode
owned by (uid_t)-1;
- a mapped caller can create an O_TMPFILE, link it into the namespace,
and the ownership round-trips through the mount idmap: it is reported
as 0 through the mount and stored as 10000 on the underlying tmpfs.
The test runs entirely as root and uses setfsuid()/setfsgid() to become
the unmapped caller, so it needs no helper user. The layer directory is
world-writable so that an unmapped caller still clears the directory
permission check and reaches the fsuidgid_has_mapping() test.

user_get_super() is now backed by the global device-to-superblock table
instead of a walk of the super_blocks list. ustat(2) is its most direct
user-visible consumer but nothing in the tree exercises it.
Add a small regression test: the device number of a mounted tmpfs (an
anonymous device, registered in the table by sget_fc()) must resolve,
it must stop resolving after the unmount (the entry is dropped again in
kill_super_notify()), and bogus device numbers keep reporting EINVAL.
The test passes on kernels before the conversion: it pins down the
semantics the table-backed lookup must preserve.

Make sure that listxattr() returns zero and that getxattr() returns
ENODATA when no extended attributs are set. Use /sys/kernel/warn_count
as that always exists and is a read-only file.

Add a simple file stressor that lives directly in-tree. This will create
a bunch of processes that each open 500 file descriptors and then use
close_range() to close them all.
Concurrently, other processes read /proc/<pid>/fd/ which rougly does
f = fget_task_next(p, &fd);
if (!f)
break;
data.mode = f->f_mode;
fput(f);
Which means that it'll try to get a reference to a file in another
task's file descriptor table.
Under heavy file load it is increasingly likely that the other task will
manage to close @file and @file will be recycled due to
SLAB_TYPEAFE_BY_RCU concurrently. This will trigger various warnings in
the file reference counting code.

Use $(KHDR_INCLUDES) as lookup path for kernel headers. This prevents
building against kernel headers from the build environment in scenarios
where kernel headers are installed into a specific output directory
(O=...).

We were picking up the wrong header should use asm/ioctls.h form the kernel
and not the header from the system (sys/ioctl.h). In the current code we
added the correct include and we added the kernel headers path to the CFLAGS.

In commit ce290a1960 ("selftests: add devpts selftests"), the
filesystems directory was added to the top-level selftests Makefile.
That had the effect of causing the existing dnotify_test in the
filesystems directory to now be run as part of the default selftests
test-run. Unfortunately dnotify_test is actually an infinite loop.
Fix it by moving dnotify_test to TEST_GEN_PROGS_EXTENDED, which says
that it's a generated file (ie. built) but should not be run as part
of the default test suite run (it's an "extended" test).
While we're here cleanup a few other things, devpts_pts should be in
TEST_GEN_PROGS to indicate that it's built, and with the above two
changes we no longer need a custom all or clean rule.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.
