The new vfs locking scheme introduced in 2.6.38 breaks NFS sillyrename
because the latter relies on being able to determine the parent
directory of the dentry in the ->iput() callback in order to send the
appropriate unlink rpc call.Looking at the code that cares about races with dput(), there doesn't
seem to be anything that specifically uses d_parent as a test for
whether or not there is a race:
- __d_lookup_rcu(), __d_lookup() all test for d_hashed() after d_parent
- shrink_dcache_for_umount() is safe since nothing else can rearrange
the dentries in that super block.
- have_submount(), select_parent() and d_genocide() can test for a
deletion if we set the DCACHE_DISCONNECTED flag when the dentry
is removed from the parent's d_subdirs list.Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust

This creates a helper function for he "try to ascend into the parent
directory" case, which was written out in triplicate before. With all
the locking and subtle sequence number stuff, we really don't want to
duplicate that kind of code.Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

* pull the handling of current->total_link_count into
__do_follow_link()
* put the common "do ->put_link() if needed and path_put() the link"
stuff into a helper (put_link(nd, link, cookie))
* rename __do_follow_link() to follow_link(), while we are at itSigned-off-by: Al Viro

The last remaining place (resolution of nested symlink) converted
to the loop of the same kind we have in path_lookupat() and
path_openat().Note that we still *do* have a recursion in pathname resolution;
can't avoid it, really. However, it's strictly for nested symlinks
now - i.e. ones in the middle of a pathname.link_path_walk() has lost the tail now - it always walks everything
except the last component.do_follow_link() renamed to nested_symlink() and moved down.

-
Now that link_path_walk() is called without LOOKUP_PARENT
only from do_follow_link(), we can simplify the checks in
last component handling. First of all, checking if we'd
arrived to a directory is not needed - the caller will check
it anyway. And LOOKUP_FOLLOW is guaranteed to be there,
since we only get to that place with nd->depth > 0.Signed-off-by: Al Viro
-
Now the only caller of link_path_walk() that does *not* pass
LOOKUP_PARENT is do_follow_link()Signed-off-by: Al Viro

new helper: walk_component(). Handles everything except symlinks;
returns negative on error, 0 on success and 1 on symlinks we decided
to follow. Drops out of RCU mode on such symlinks.link_path_walk() and do_last() switched to using that.

We don't want to allow creation of private hardlinks by different application

Just need to make sure that AF_UNIX garbage collector won't
confuse O_PATHed socket on filesystem for real AF_UNIX opened
socket.Signed-off-by: Al Viro
-
For readlinkat() we simply allow empty pathname; it will fail unless
we have dfd equal to O_PATH-opened symlink, so we are outside of
POSIX scope here. For fchownat() and fstatat() we allow AT_EMPTY_PATH;
let the caller explicitly ask for such behaviour.Signed-off-by: Al Viro
-
At that point we can't do almost nothing with them. They can be opened
with O_PATH, we can manipulate such descriptors with dup(), etc. and
we can see them in /proc/*/{fd,fdinfo}/*.We can't (and won't be able to) follow /proc/*/fd/* symlinks for those;
there's simply not enough information for pathname resolution to go on
from such point - to resolve a symlink we need to know which directory
does it live in.We will be able to do useful things with them after the next commit, though -
readlinkat() and fchownat() will be possible to use with dfd being an
O_PATH-opened symlink and empty relative pathname. Combined with
open_by_handle() it'll give us a way to do realink-by-handle and
lchown-by-handle without messing with more redundant syscalls.Signed-off-by: Al Viro
-
New flag for open(2) - O_PATH. Semantics:
* pathname is resolved, but the file itself is _NOT_ opened
as far as filesystem is concerned.
* almost all operations on the resulting descriptors shall
fail with -EBADF. Exceptions are:
1) operations on descriptors themselves (i.e.
close(), dup(), dup2(), dup3(), fcntl(fd, F_DUPFD),
fcntl(fd, F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC, ...), fcntl(fd, F_GETFD),
fcntl(fd, F_SETFD, ...))
2) fcntl(fd, F_GETFL), for a common non-destructive way to
check if descriptor is open
3) "dfd" arguments of ...at(2) syscalls, i.e. the starting
points of pathname resolution
* closing such descriptor does *NOT* affect dnotify or
posix locks.
* permissions are checked as usual along the way to file;
no permission checks are applied to the file itself. Of course,
giving such thing to syscall will result in permission checks (at
the moment it means checking that starting point of ....at() is
a directory and caller has exec permissions on it).fget() and fget_light() return NULL on such descriptors; use of
fget_raw() and fget_raw_light() is needed to get them. That protects
existing code from dealing with those things.There are two things still missing (they come in the next commits):
one is handling of symlinks (right now we refuse to open them that
way; see the next commit for semantics related to those) and another
is descriptor passing via SCM_RIGHTS datagrams.Signed-off-by: Al Viro

mlog_exit is used to record the exit status of a function.
But because it is added in so many functions, if we enable it,
the system logs get filled up quickly and cause too much I/O.
So actually no one can open it for a production system or even
for a test.This patch just try to remove it or change it. So:
1. if all the error paths already use mlog_errno, it is just removed.
Otherwise, it will be replaced by mlog_errno.
2. if it is used to print some return value, it is replaced with
mlog(0,...).
mlog_exit_ptr is changed to mlog(0.
All those mlog(0,...) will be replaced with trace events later.Signed-off-by: Tao Ma

This is the 2nd step to remove the debug info of DISK_ALLOC.
So this patch removes all mlog(0,...) from localalloc.c and adds
the corresponding tracepoints. Different mlogs have different
solutions.
1. Some are replaced with trace event directly.
2. Some are replaced while some new parameters are added.
3. Some are combined into one trace events.
4. Some redundant mlogs are removed.Signed-off-by: Tao Ma

This is the first try of replacing debug mlog(0,...) to
trace events. Wengang has did some work in his original
patch
http://oss.oracle.com/pipermail/ocfs2-devel/2009-November/005513.html
But he didn't finished it.So this patch removes all mlog(0,...) from alloc.c and adds
the corresponding trace events. Different mlogs have different
solutions.
1. Some are replaced with trace event directly.
2. Some are replaced and some new parameters are added since
I think we need to know the btree owner in that case.
3. Some are combined into one trace events.
4. Some redundant mlogs are removed.
What's more, it defines some event classes so that we can use
them later.Cc: Wengang Wang

ocfs2_iget is used to get/create inode. Only iget5_locked
will give us an inode = NULL. So move this check ahead of
ocfs2_read_locked_inode so that we don't need to check
inode before we read and unlock inode. This is also helpful
for trace event(see the next patch).Signed-off-by: Tao Ma

As there are no such debug information in fs/ocfs2/ioctl.c,

About one year ago, Wengang Wang tried some first steps
to add tracepoints to ocfs2. Hiss original patch is here:
http://oss.oracle.com/pipermail/ocfs2-devel/2009-November/005512.htmlBut as Steven Rostedt indicated in his article
http://lwn.net/Articles/383362/, we'd better have our trace
files resides in fs/ocfs2, so I rewrited the patch using the
method Steven mentioned in that article.Signed-off-by: Wengang Wang
