  • Add a system call to make extended file information available, including
    file creation and some attribute flags where available through the
    underlying filesystem.

    The getattr inode operation is altered to take two additional arguments: a
    u32 request_mask and an unsigned int flags that indicate the
    synchronisation mode. This change is propagated to the vfs_getattr*()
    function.

    Functions like vfs_stat() are now inline wrappers around new functions
    vfs_statx() and vfs_statx_fd() to reduce stack usage.

    ========
    OVERVIEW
    ========

    The idea was initially proposed as a set of xattrs that could be retrieved
    with getxattr(), but the general preference proved to be for a new syscall
    with an extended stat structure.

    A number of requests were gathered for features to be included. The
    following have been included:

    (1) Make the fields a consistent size on all arches and make them large.

    (2) Spare space, request flags and information flags are provided for
    future expansion.

    (3) Better support for the y2038 problem [Arnd Bergmann] (tv_sec is an
    __s64).

    (4) Creation time: The SMB protocol carries the creation time, which could
    be exported by Samba, which will in turn help CIFS make use of
    FS-Cache as that can be used for coherency data (stx_btime).

    This is also specified in NFSv4 as a recommended attribute and could
    be exported by NFSD [Steve French].

    (5) Lightweight stat: Ask for just those details of interest, and allow a
    netfs (such as NFS) to approximate anything not of interest, possibly
    without going to the server [Trond Myklebust, Ulrich Drepper, Andreas
    Dilger] (AT_STATX_DONT_SYNC).

    (6) Heavyweight stat: Force a netfs to go to the server, even if it thinks
    its cached attributes are up to date [Trond Myklebust]
    (AT_STATX_FORCE_SYNC).

    And the following have been left out for future extension:

    (7) Data version number: Could be used by userspace NFS servers [Aneesh
    Kumar].

    Can also be used to modify fill_post_wcc() in NFSD which retrieves
    i_version directly, but has just called vfs_getattr(). It could get
    it from the kstat struct if it used vfs_xgetattr() instead.

    (There's disagreement on the exact semantics of a single field, since
    not all filesystems do this the same way).

    (8) BSD stat compatibility: Including more fields from the BSD stat such
    as creation time (st_btime) and inode generation number (st_gen)
    [Jeremy Allison, Bernd Schubert].

    (9) Inode generation number: Useful for FUSE and userspace NFS servers
    [Bernd Schubert].

    (This was asked for but later deemed unnecessary with the
    open-by-handle capability available and caused disagreement as to
    whether it's a security hole or not).

    (10) Extra coherency data may be useful in making backups [Andreas Dilger].

    (No particular data were offered, but things like last backup
    timestamp, the data version number and the DOS archive bit would come
    into this category).

    (11) Allow the filesystem to indicate what it can/cannot provide: A
    filesystem can now say it doesn't support a standard stat feature if
    that isn't available, so if, for instance, inode numbers or UIDs don't
    exist or are fabricated locally...

    (This requires a separate system call - I have an fsinfo() call idea
    for this).

    (12) Store a 16-byte volume ID in the superblock that can be returned in
    struct xstat [Steve French].

    (Deferred to fsinfo).

    (13) Include granularity fields in the time data to indicate the
    granularity of each of the times (NFSv4 time_delta) [Steve French].

    (Deferred to fsinfo).

    (14) FS_IOC_GETFLAGS value. These could be translated to BSD's st_flags.
    Note that the Linux IOC flags are a mess and filesystems such as Ext4
    define flags that aren't in linux/fs.h, so translation in the kernel
    may be a necessity (or, possibly, we provide the filesystem type too).

    (Some attributes are made available in stx_attributes, but the general
    feeling was that the IOC flags were to ext[234]-specific and shouldn't
    be exposed through statx this way).

    (15) Mask of features available on file (eg: ACLs, seclabel) [Brad Boyer,
    Michael Kerrisk].

    (Deferred, probably to fsinfo. Finding out if there's an ACL or
    seclabal might require extra filesystem operations).

    (16) Femtosecond-resolution timestamps [Dave Chinner].

    (A __reserved field has been left in the statx_timestamp struct for
    this - if there proves to be a need).

    (17) A set multiple attributes syscall to go with this.

    ===============
    NEW SYSTEM CALL
    ===============

    The new system call is:

    int ret = statx(int dfd,
    const char *filename,
    unsigned int flags,
    unsigned int mask,
    struct statx *buffer);

    The dfd, filename and flags parameters indicate the file to query, in a
    similar way to fstatat(). There is no equivalent of lstat() as that can be
    emulated with statx() by passing AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW in flags. There is
    also no equivalent of fstat() as that can be emulated by passing a NULL
    filename to statx() with the fd of interest in dfd.

    Whether or not statx() synchronises the attributes with the backing store
    can be controlled by OR'ing a value into the flags argument (this typically
    only affects network filesystems):

    (1) AT_STATX_SYNC_AS_STAT tells statx() to behave as stat() does in this
    respect.

    (2) AT_STATX_FORCE_SYNC will require a network filesystem to synchronise
    its attributes with the server - which might require data writeback to
    occur to get the timestamps correct.

    (3) AT_STATX_DONT_SYNC will suppress synchronisation with the server in a
    network filesystem. The resulting values should be considered
    approximate.

    mask is a bitmask indicating the fields in struct statx that are of
    interest to the caller. The user should set this to STATX_BASIC_STATS to
    get the basic set returned by stat(). It should be noted that asking for
    more information may entail extra I/O operations.

    buffer points to the destination for the data. This must be 256 bytes in
    size.

    ======================
    MAIN ATTRIBUTES RECORD
    ======================

    The following structures are defined in which to return the main attribute
    set:

    struct statx_timestamp {
    __s64 tv_sec;
    __s32 tv_nsec;
    __s32 __reserved;
    };

    struct statx {
    __u32 stx_mask;
    __u32 stx_blksize;
    __u64 stx_attributes;
    __u32 stx_nlink;
    __u32 stx_uid;
    __u32 stx_gid;
    __u16 stx_mode;
    __u16 __spare0[1];
    __u64 stx_ino;
    __u64 stx_size;
    __u64 stx_blocks;
    __u64 __spare1[1];
    struct statx_timestamp stx_atime;
    struct statx_timestamp stx_btime;
    struct statx_timestamp stx_ctime;
    struct statx_timestamp stx_mtime;
    __u32 stx_rdev_major;
    __u32 stx_rdev_minor;
    __u32 stx_dev_major;
    __u32 stx_dev_minor;
    __u64 __spare2[14];
    };

    The defined bits in request_mask and stx_mask are:

    STATX_TYPE Want/got stx_mode & S_IFMT
    STATX_MODE Want/got stx_mode & ~S_IFMT
    STATX_NLINK Want/got stx_nlink
    STATX_UID Want/got stx_uid
    STATX_GID Want/got stx_gid
    STATX_ATIME Want/got stx_atime{,_ns}
    STATX_MTIME Want/got stx_mtime{,_ns}
    STATX_CTIME Want/got stx_ctime{,_ns}
    STATX_INO Want/got stx_ino
    STATX_SIZE Want/got stx_size
    STATX_BLOCKS Want/got stx_blocks
    STATX_BASIC_STATS [The stuff in the normal stat struct]
    STATX_BTIME Want/got stx_btime{,_ns}
    STATX_ALL [All currently available stuff]

    stx_btime is the file creation time, stx_mask is a bitmask indicating the
    data provided and __spares*[] are where as-yet undefined fields can be
    placed.

    Time fields are structures with separate seconds and nanoseconds fields
    plus a reserved field in case we want to add even finer resolution. Note
    that times will be negative if before 1970; in such a case, the nanosecond
    fields will also be negative if not zero.

    The bits defined in the stx_attributes field convey information about a
    file, how it is accessed, where it is and what it does. The following
    attributes map to FS_*_FL flags and are the same numerical value:

    STATX_ATTR_COMPRESSED File is compressed by the fs
    STATX_ATTR_IMMUTABLE File is marked immutable
    STATX_ATTR_APPEND File is append-only
    STATX_ATTR_NODUMP File is not to be dumped
    STATX_ATTR_ENCRYPTED File requires key to decrypt in fs

    Within the kernel, the supported flags are listed by:

    KSTAT_ATTR_FS_IOC_FLAGS

    [Are any other IOC flags of sufficient general interest to be exposed
    through this interface?]

    New flags include:

    STATX_ATTR_AUTOMOUNT Object is an automount trigger

    These are for the use of GUI tools that might want to mark files specially,
    depending on what they are.

    Fields in struct statx come in a number of classes:

    (0) stx_dev_*, stx_blksize.

    These are local system information and are always available.

    (1) stx_mode, stx_nlinks, stx_uid, stx_gid, stx_[amc]time, stx_ino,
    stx_size, stx_blocks.

    These will be returned whether the caller asks for them or not. The
    corresponding bits in stx_mask will be set to indicate whether they
    actually have valid values.

    If the caller didn't ask for them, then they may be approximated. For
    example, NFS won't waste any time updating them from the server,
    unless as a byproduct of updating something requested.

    If the values don't actually exist for the underlying object (such as
    UID or GID on a DOS file), then the bit won't be set in the stx_mask,
    even if the caller asked for the value. In such a case, the returned
    value will be a fabrication.

    Note that there are instances where the type might not be valid, for
    instance Windows reparse points.

    (2) stx_rdev_*.

    This will be set only if stx_mode indicates we're looking at a
    blockdev or a chardev, otherwise will be 0.

    (3) stx_btime.

    Similar to (1), except this will be set to 0 if it doesn't exist.

    =======
    TESTING
    =======

    The following test program can be used to test the statx system call:

    samples/statx/test-statx.c

    Just compile and run, passing it paths to the files you want to examine.
    The file is built automatically if CONFIG_SAMPLES is enabled.

    Here's some example output. Firstly, an NFS directory that crosses to
    another FSID. Note that the AUTOMOUNT attribute is set because transiting
    this directory will cause d_automount to be invoked by the VFS.

    [root@andromeda ~]# /tmp/test-statx -A /warthog/data
    statx(/warthog/data) = 0
    results=7ff
    Size: 4096 Blocks: 8 IO Block: 1048576 directory

    Attributes: 0000000000001000 (-------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- ---m---- --------)

    Secondly, the result of automounting on that directory.

    [root@andromeda ~]# /tmp/test-statx /warthog/data
    statx(/warthog/data) = 0

  • udf_fill_super() used udf_parse_options() to flag UDF_FLAG_BLOCKSIZE_SET
    when blocksize was specified otherwise used 512 bytes
    (bdev_logical_block_size) and 2048 bytes (UDF_DEFAULT_BLOCKSIZE)
    IOW both 1024 and 4096 specifications were required or resulted in

    "mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop1"

    This patch loops through different block values but also updates
    udf_load_vrs() to return -EINVAL instead of 0 when udf_check_vsd()
    fails (and uopt->novrs = 0).
    The later being the reason for the RFC; we have that case when mounting
    a 4kb blocksize against other values but maybe VRS is not mandatory
    there ?

  • UDF encodes symlinks in a more complex fashion and thus i_size of a
    symlink does not match the lenght of a string returned by readlink(2).
    This confuses some applications (see bug 191241) and may be considered a
    violation of POSIX. Fix the problem by reading the link into page cache
    in response to stat(2) call and report the length of the decoded path.

  • CURRENT_TIME is not y2038 safe.

    CURRENT_TIME macro is also not appropriate for filesystems
    as it doesn't use the right granularity for filesystem
    timestamps.

    Logical Volume Integrity format is described to have the
    same timestamp format for "Recording Date and time" as
    the other [a,c,m]timestamps.
    The function udf_time_to_disk_format() does this conversion.
    Hence the timestamp is passed directly to the function and
    not truncated. This is as per Arnd's suggestion on the
    thread.

    This is also in preparation for the patch that transitions
    vfs timestamps to use 64 bit time and hence make them
    y2038 safe. As part of the effort current_time() will be
    extended to do range checks.

  • current_fs_time() uses struct super_block* as an argument.
    As per Linus's suggestion, this is changed to take struct
    inode* as a parameter instead. This is because the function
    is primarily meant for vfs inode timestamps.
    Also the function was renamed as per Arnd's suggestion.

  • These two are confusing leftover of the old world order, combining
    values of the REQ_OP_ and REQ_ namespaces. For callers that don't
    special case we mostly just replace bi_rw with bio_data_dir or
    op_is_write, except for the few cases where a switch over the REQ_OP_
    values makes more sense. Any check for READA is replaced with an
    explicit check for REQ_RAHEAD. Also remove the READA alias for
    REQ_RAHEAD.

  • UDF/OSTA terminology is confusing. Partition Numbers (PNs) are arbitrary
    16-bit values, one for each physical partition in the volume. Partition
    Reference Numbers (PRNs) are indices into the the Partition Map Table
    and do not necessarily equal the PN of the mapped partition.

    The current metadata code mistakenly uses the PN instead of the PRN when
    mapping metadata blocks to physical/sparable blocks. Windows-created
    UDF 2.5 discs for some reason use large, arbitrary PNs, resulting in
    mount failure and KASAN read warnings in udf_read_inode().

    For example, a NetBSD UDF 2.5 partition might look like this:

    PRN PN Type
    --- -- ----
    0 0 Sparable
    1 0 Metadata

    Since PRN == PN, we are fine.

    But Windows could gives us:

    PRN PN Type
    --- ---- ----
    0 8192 Sparable
    1 8192 Metadata

    So udf_read_inode() will start out by checking the partition length in
    sbi->s_partmaps[8192], which is obviously out of bounds.

    Fix this by creating a new field (s_phys_partition_ref) in struct
    udf_meta_data, referencing whatever physical or sparable map has the
    same partition number as the metadata partition.

    [JK: Add comment about s_phys_partition_ref, change its name]

  • Currently when udf_get_pblock_meta25() fails to map a block using the
    primary metadata file, it will attempt to load the mirror file entry by
    calling udf_find_metadata_inode_efe(). That function will return a ERR_PTR
    if it fails, but the return value is only checked against NULL. Test the
    return value using IS_ERR() and change it to NULL if needed.

  • Currently, if a metadata partition map is missing its partition descriptor,
    then udf_get_pblock_meta25() will BUG() out the first time it is called.
    This is rather drastic for a corrupted filesystem, so just treat this case
    as an invalid mapping instead.
